You can be doing “everything right” and still feel off: poor sleep, low energy, brain fog, and slipping motivation. This episode reframes the hidden factor many high-performing men overlook: regular social drinking. If you’re a man in your 40s or 50s who drinks “normally” but feels like your performance is sliding, Clifford Stephan shares why a longer, strategic break (not a quick dry month) can help you reset sleep, mood, cravings, and resilience, without shame or extreme labels. About the Guest: Clifford Stephan is the founder of Booze Vacation, a men’s health movement for high-performing men in their 40s and 50s. He studied nutritional science at Cal Poly SLO and spent over 20 years running a consulting business in Silicon Valley. Key Takeaways: Use a 3 to 6 month break to truly re-stabilize sleep, mood, and stress response Track drinks, last drink time, and morning energy to spot patterns fast Build a “social game plan” so events stay fun without alcohol Expect cravings for sugar and caffeine when sleep is disrupted Focus on sequence: stop the disruptor first, then optimize diet, training, recovery How to Connect With the Guest: Website: https://boozevacation.com/  Men’s health assessment quiz: https://boozevacation.scoreapp.com/  Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with bestselling author and keynote speaker David McNally to explore what it truly means to age with vitality. David reframes “successful aging” away from surface markers like money or staying busy, and toward something deeper: rich life experiences, meaningful contribution, and a compelling reason to get up each morning. He shares how many people feel lost after retirement because their sense of relevance was validated externally—through meetings, emails, and titles—until it suddenly disappears. The remedy, he explains, is finding relevance from within by rediscovering mission, gifts, and service. David offers grounded, practical ways to reconnect with purpose: reflect on what inspires you, who inspires you, and what fulfills you, then choose where your talents can add value. He also challenges the “too old” mindset, emphasizing that creativity expires only when we do—and that the brain and imagination can keep expanding. Finally, he highlights acceptance and peace of mind as essential to aging well, and recommends simple daily habits like journaling, reading something uplifting, and doing one small act to improve someone else’s day. About the Guest: David McNally is a bestselling author (Even Eagles Need a Push, Be Your Own Brand, and If You Are Alive, Your Mission on Earth Isn’t Finished), award-winning documentary producer, and Speaker’s Hall of Fame member. His work focuses on purpose, resilience, and human potential, shaped by profound personal loss and his own health journey. Key Takeaways: Measure success by experiences, meaning, and relationships—not just achievements. Purpose is a “reason to get up,” especially after work life ends. Retirement can trigger a relevance gap; rebuild relevance from the inside out. Ask: What inspires me? Who inspires me? What fulfills me? Creativity doesn’t expire with age—growth is still available. Acceptance creates peace of mind: control what you can, release what you can’t. Daily habits: journal/reflect, read uplifting material, move toward a goal, help someone.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Nicholas Adkins, founder of Pink Socks Life, to unpack a simple but high impact idea. Show up with love and kindness in each now. Nick shares how a pair of knee high pink socks turned into an organic global kindness movement. From healthcare conferences to everyday moments on a bus or in a grocery line, the core message stays the same. Real connection beats nonstop connectivity. You will also hear a practical reset for caregivers and high performers who pour into everyone else. Start with self love. Then use small human moments to build the muscle of compassion, presence, and empathy. About the Guest: Nicholas Adkins is the founder of Pink Socks Life, a nonprofit based in Portland, Oregon. He is also the author of Pink Socks. How a Pair of Socks Became a Symbol of Love and Connection. Over 300,000 pairs of pink socks have been gifted worldwide as a signal for belonging, kindness, and human connection. Key Takeaways: Pink Socks Life started as a simple conference strategy. Gift fun pink socks. Start conversations. Build real relationships that scale into community. The “movement” became organic when strangers in places like the Netherlands and Wales sourced pink socks to support health causes and connection. “Heartspeak” is what happens when you slow down, look someone in the eyes, and make space for their story with empathy and no judgment. Connection is different from connectivity. Phones, apps, and social platforms are tools. Real connection is presence, listening, and shared humanity. Kindness is not soft. It is operational leadership. One sincere conversation can shift a room, a workplace culture, or a hospital hallway. Love and fear show up in every moment. You choose. Love looks like compassion, patience, forgiveness, and cooperation. Fear looks like anger and shame. The real gift is not the socks. The real gift is holding space for another human, especially when they are carrying grief or struggle. If you are great at caring for others but bad at caring for yourself, start with one micro habit. Give yourself grace. Then practice love in low stakes moments. End of day reflection builds self awareness. Where did I choose love today. Where did I miss it. What will I try in the next now.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Dr. Christal L. Badour to cut through the internet noise around trauma healing. They break down what actually happens in the brain and body during trauma. Why memory can show up as vivid snapshots with gaps. And why that is a survival feature, not a personal defect. Dr. Badour also explains how to spot credible healing information in a world full of “pretty but flimsy” wellness content. She points listeners to research-backed sources like global and national trauma organizations, then adds a grounded take on generative AI. It can help you find reputable resources, but it is not a replacement for real clinical care or human connection. The conversation closes with a practical shift. Trauma-informed environments change everything. Families, workplaces, and communities can support recovery by moving from “what’s wrong with you” to “what happened to you” and “what do you need.” About the Guest: Dr. Christal L. Badour is a licensed clinical psychologist, researcher, and founder of Science for Survivors. She has led federally funded research on PTSD and substance use, trains clinicians, and translates paywalled research into real-world language survivors and communities can use. Key Takeaways: Trauma responses start during the event. Your brain’s #1 KPI is survival, not comfort. The limbic system ramps up fast. The amygdala helps drive threat detection and intense emotions. Trauma memories can store as sharp snapshots with gaps. That is common and not “proof” you are broken. Confusion after trauma is often the brain reviewing threat data, not weakness or failure. Online healing content can look credible because production quality is not evidence. Packaging is not peer review. Start with research-grounded hubs like the World Health Organization and major trauma education networks. Evidence-based tools and spiritual reflection can coexist. Real humans do not heal in tidy categories. Generative AI can act like an advanced search engine for credible sources. It should not replace therapists or care teams. Trauma and substance use often intersect. Coping via substances is not a moral failing, but it can become harmful over time. Trauma-informed workplaces improve outcomes. Shift from blame to support and psychological safety. How Listeners Can Connect With the Guest Website: http://www.scienceforsurvivors.com/  Explore Dr. Badour’s blog on trauma recovery science. You can also find details on her services and professional work there. Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life? DM on PM .

If you’ve been saying “I have a book inside me” and then immediately talking yourself out of it. This episode is your reality check and your roadmap. On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Suzanne Doyle-Ingram, bestselling author and founder of the Expert Author Program, to break down what actually gets a nonfiction book finished and published without turning it into a five-year guilt project. Suzanne shares how she went from panic-mode during the 2008 crash to writing a surprise bestseller. Then she reveals the bigger truth. The win isn’t book sales, it’s building a book that sells your expertise, attracts clients, and opens speaking and visibility opportunities. You’ll learn why most aspiring authors get stuck. No outline, no reader clarity, and no protected time. This conversation is part mindset, part practical execution. Perfect for coaches, consultants, entrepreneurs, and professionals ready to publish a business book that builds authority. About the Guest: Suzanne Doyle-Ingram is a bestselling author who has written and co-written 20+ books. She coaches business professionals to write, publish, and leverage nonfiction books for authority, clients, and speaking opportunities. Her team has supported 1,000+ experts through the book creation process. Key Takeaways: If you’re “waiting until you’re ready” to write. That’s usually self-sabotage dressed as productivity. Write for your ideal reader, not your ego. A reader should feel “this was written for me.” Your ideal client and ideal reader are often the same person. Get crystal clear on their problems, fears, and goals. Outlines are non-negotiable. No outline means you’re dragging readers through a forest with no path. Trending-topic books can make quick money but can burn you out fast. Passion plus strategy wins long-term. A book can be “not a bestseller” and still be a business asset that lands contracts, partnerships, and credibility. Protect your writing time like a meeting with your biggest client. Put it on your calendar and defend it. People-pleasing delays books. Learning to say “no” speeds up publishing more than any writing hack. Editors polish words. An outline protects structure, clarity, and trust. Your gift feels easy to you. That’s exactly why it’s valuable to others and worth turning into a book.

In this deeply real episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with 19-year-old speaker and mentor Lawrence Harris, who has transformed profound personal pain into a mission of purpose. From being kicked out at 13 to battling CPTSD, Lawrence shares how he built resilience not as a buzzword, but as a way of surviving—and thriving. This conversation explores the unglamorous truth of healing, the discipline of self-love, and why encouragement—not expectation—is what youth really need today. About the Guest:Lawrence Harris is a youth mentor, digital entrepreneur, and motivational speaker. Despite his age, he brings lived wisdom shaped by adversity and fueled by an unbreakable will to rise. Kicked out of his home as a teenager and navigating mental health challenges, Lawrence rebuilt his life through small acts of self-discipline, empowering content, and by mentoring others. He now helps young people find their voice and purpose, offering tools through his books, courses, and social platforms. Key Takeaways: Resilience is about choosing to keep going, especially when quitting feels easier. Self-love starts with small habits like brushing your teeth or cleaning your space—discipline before affirmation. Healing is personal; Lawrence emphasizes surrounding yourself with affirming people and cutting off toxic influences. Today's youth don’t need pressure to perform—they need validation to be. We must be careful not to glorify trauma but instead showcase the transformation and offer actionable guidance for others.

In this heart-centered episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Jody Durand—author of Country Boy Soul—to explore how life's unexpected storms can lead us back to purpose. From losing his father at 20 and running a call center during 9/11, to discovering healing through vulnerability, mentorship, and authentic leadership in sales, Jody shares a raw, real-life blueprint of resilience. His story is a reminder that we don't have to be perfect to live a purposeful life. About the Guest:Jody Durand is a farmer-turned-sales mentor, author, and advocate for emotional honesty—especially among men. His memoir Country Boy Soul chronicles his transformation through loss, burnout, and rebuilding, offering powerful insights into self-worth, mental health, and fulfillment. Now living on a farm with his wife Laura, Jody mentors others in leadership and sales while staying grounded in gratitude and truth. Key Takeaways: "It all looks good from the road" masks the real struggles behind success and survival. Jody’s story reveals how unchecked burnout, grief, and societal expectations can silently erode mental well-being. Sales became his unexpected path to healing—because it was never about selling, but helping. The crash that nearly took his life became the moment he chose to reclaim it. Vulnerability isn’t weakness—it’s what connects us and lifts others up. Connect with Jody Durand:Find him on LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram.
