Sunday Set Up Ep. 46: The Labels We Choose to Live By 19.07.2026 37λHappy Sunday! Welcome to Heal Squad's The Sunday Set Up. Life lessons to help you start the week.This week, we talk about the labels we place on ourselves, and the ones the world places on us. Do they help us better understand who we are... or do they quietly become excuses that keep us from becoming who we're capable of being? We talk about why it's so easy to embrace an identity, whether it's a diagnosis, a setback, or a story we've been telling ourselves for years, and how those labels can sometimes become prisons instead of pathways. We talk about the power of choosing how we respond rather than allowing a label to define what's possible. From living with a lifelong medical condition without letting it become an excuse, to discovering how years of emotional weight can literally show up in the body. Plus, a Sunday Set Up bonus! We talk about Star Trek, the return of swashbuckling, Greek islands, miracle churches, novelty ice cream, jazz brunches, the healing power of a good car scream, and the need to rebrand VictimCon. This week, ask yourself: What labels have I accepted about myself? Are they helping me grow... or are they quietly convincing me that I can't? Because your circumstances may shape your story, but they never have to write the ending. Have a great week! We'll talk Shawtly.

Pot Luck Saturday: The Ice Cream Man & Novelty Ice Creams of Yesteryear 18.07.2026 29λHappy Pot Luck Saturday!This week we’re taking a delicious trip back to the golden age of childhood as we explore the incredible history of the American ice cream truck…from the 1920s Good Humor man to the legendary Hood trucks of Boston and the unforgettable novelty treats that defined the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Why did hearing that familiar jingle send an entire neighborhood sprinting for home? How did the ice cream man become one of America’s most beloved summer traditions? And what happened to this uniquely American ritual? Along the way we rank the greatest frozen treats of all time…from Bomb Pops, Strawberry Shortcake Bars, Toasted Almonds, Screwballs, Push-Ups, Chipwiches, Jimmy Cones, Circus Fun, Cannonballs, Nutty Buddies and so many forgotten favorites. We uncover surprising stories behind Good Humor, Mister Softee, Hood, and the entrepreneurs who built an iconic industry on wheels, along with fascinating stats, hidden history, and the business lessons behind one of America’s greatest neighborhood traditions. As always on Pot Luck Saturday, we wander wherever curiosity takes us, from pool safety and parenting, back to school back when, and why Gen X is the bridge generation, getting the last novelty ice creams from the truck so to speak.

LGF Ep. 282: Greek Life, American Gratitude & The Obstacle Is the Way 17.07.2026 37λHappy International Lonely Guy Friday! Live from Greece, with questionable internet, background noise, a Greek-speaking Athena, and Zorba taking entirely too long to kick in. Today we get into how European culture prioritizes living while American culture prioritizes working, and why accepting who you are may matter more. We talk about how DJs, Greek music, Springsteen, and even repetitive algorithms can place us into emotional and almost hypnotic states. We also get into how a conversation with a privileged 25-year-old critic of America became a lesson in capitalism, gratitude, fathers, responsibility, and remembering who still pays half the bills. Plus, how America may be deeply flawed while also possessing traditions of generosity, charity, humane treatment, tipping, and helping strangers that travelers often witness firsthand. Kev also discusses how empathy for younger generations does not require endorsing entitlement, hatred or burning down systems and how parents may finally be learning to limit screens and more. Also, understanding a difficult father does not require accepting abuse, but may require admitting that imperfect parents were often loving as well as they knew how. Kev talks about how Sylvester Stallone continues living the Rocky story, turning obstacles, rejection, and lost ownership into yet another achievement at nearly 80 and how the barriers blocking your path may ultimately create the story only you could tell. Then, how cognitive decline affects entire families, with love and prayers for Bob Backlund. Plus, the ultimate RGF houseguest rule: when visiting someone’s home how to make them cry when you leave, not celebrate your departure.Yasu, efcharistó, Bye Betches!

1313. Burned Out? How to Declutter Your Brain & Reclaim Your Energy w/ Greg McKeown 16.07.2026 52λHey, Heal Squad! We definitely wanted to keep the momentum going after Dhar Mann talked about burnout and living your authentic self, so today we are throwing it back to our conversation with Greg McKeown, New York Times Bestselling author for our throwback Thursday episode. Greg McKeown, New York Times Bestselling author of Essentialism & Effortless: Make It Easier to Do What Matters Most teaches us how overthinking leads to clutter and less mental energy, and emphasizes that we must declutter our brains. We discuss burnout and how there are only two types of people in the world right now, those who are burnt out and those who acknowledge they are burnt out. Greg gives us tools on how to spot burnout and teaches us that past a certain point, working harder leads to negative results...it’s not worth the burnout. We learned that through journaling, making our chores fun and giving them purpose, being more present and CHOOSING to take the lighter vs the heavier path we can all start to live a more effortless life. Greg teaches us that instead of saying “how can I work harder to get better results?” say “how can I achieve better results by making it more effortless?” We also discuss the power of having the ‘courage to be rubbish’ or not being held down by perfectionism, which is crucial to living more effortlessly. We hope this conversation inspires you!

1312. How Forbes' #2 Creator Dhar Mann Ditched Guilt, Ditched A To-Do List & Finally Found Peace 15.07.2026 27λHey, Heal Squad! We are back for Part 2 with the one and only Dhar Mann, Forbes' #2 Creator, founder of Dhar Mann Studios, and host of the brand-new podcast What Happens Next: The Dhar Mann Podcast. Today our conversation really gets personal. We get into the daily habits that keep him grounded and why his one true non-negotiable every morning has nothing to do with the latest wellness hacks. We also talk about why giving yourself grace isn't just good for your soul, it's scientifically proven to help you reach your goals faster. Dhar also shares what he believes God is really doing when life feels like it's falling apart, his go-to book list for every season of life (don’t worry we have it below!), and why being your most authentic self in every room is the real secret to not burning out and possibly, being one of the top creators in the world! Enjoy! The To-Do List vs. The To-Be List: Dhar shares the mindset shift that helped him stop chasing milestones and start appreciating the moments that truly make up a meaningful life. Grace Over Perfection: Why giving yourself grace isn't giving up, it's one of the most powerful tools for healing, resilience, and long-term success. The Burden Before the Blessing: From faith and purpose to fatherhood and daily habits, Dhar explains why life's greatest burdens often prepare us for our biggest breakthroughs and how to stay present while you're living through them.

1311. Dhar Mann, Forbes #2 Creator: How Hitting Rock Bottom Taught Him EVERYTHING About Failure, Faith & Purpose 14.07.2026 49λHey, Heal Squad! Today, Maria is back in the studio with a very special guest: Dhar Mann. If his name doesn't ring a bell... just ask your kids…lol. Chances are, they've seen one (or a hundred!) of his videos. Dhar is the founder of Dhar Mann Studios, where his videos reach hundreds of millions of people every week. He's also Forbes' #2 Creator and the host of a brand-new podcast called What Happens Next: The Dhar Mann Podcast. But what fascinated us most wasn't how he built an empire….it was the journey that built him. We talk about what it was like growing up feeling like he didn't belong, how hitting rock bottom at 30…broke, depressed, and just weeks away from eviction….became the turning point that changed his life, and why this one conversation he had with his young daughter has really changed the way he defines success. We also get into faith, purpose, learning to face your pain instead of running from it, and the role his wife Laura played in believing in him when he couldn't quite believe in himself. Whether you're feeling stuck, starting over, or just trying to figure out your next chapter, this conversation is such a beautiful reminder that your greatest setbacks don't have to define you, they might just be preparing you for what's next. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS The Conversation That Changed Everything: Dhar shares the heartfelt moment with his daughter that completely redefined how he measures success and what truly matters. Pain Can Become Purpose: From childhood rejection to rock bottom at 30, Dhar explains how learning to face pain and not avoid it, became the foundation of his life and career. Your Story Isn't Over: Dhar reveals why every setback is just another chapter, and why he believes you're often one opportunity away from your breakthrough.

1310. Remember Who You Are: Why Healing Isn't About Becoming Someone New 13.07.2026 24λHey, Heal Squad! Today, Maria is getting a lil’ personal and sharing one of the biggest realizations she's had yet on her healing journey (and it's something so many of us can probably relate to!). After years of therapy, books, podcasts, retreats, and interviewing some of the world's leading health and wellness experts, Maria realized that the hardest part to her healing isn't doing the work...it's remembering everything you've learned when life knocks you down again. Today she shares how that realization inspired her to create what she now calls “Your Guide Back to You.” A place to keep all the lessons and breakthroughs she never wants to forget. Maria explains how she’s come to realize that healing isn't about constantly reinventing yourself. That sometimes it's about slowing down long enough to reconnect with the person you were before life, fear, and everyone else's expectations got in the way. It's about noticing the patterns you keep repeating, understanding your triggers, and finding your way back to yourself. Maria also gives us a first look at the philosophy behind her upcoming Your Guide Back to You retreat at Canyon Ranch (link below to join!). All in all, we hope this conversation inspires you to spend a little time reconnecting with yourself this week and remembering your own wisdom whenever life throws you off course. Enjoy!

Sunday Set Up Ep. 45: Rejection, Protection, and Finding Your People 12.07.2026 45λHappy Sunday! Welcome to Heal Squad's The Sunday Set Up. Life lessons to help you start the week. This week, we explore why the opinions of strangers (and even the people we work alongside) can have so much power over us. Why can one dismissive comment or difficult interaction stay with us all day while a dozen acts of kindness fade into the background? We talk about the psychology behind our need for acceptance, exploring how our ancient survival instincts may still convince us that rejection is something to fear, even when it isn't. We talk about why some people simply aren't meant to travel the same road as us, why trying to help the wrong people can quietly drain our energy, and how learning to focus on those who truly share our values can change everything. We talk about how so many of the disappointments that once felt devastating ultimately became the very moments that redirected us toward a better path. Sometimes rejection isn't failure, it's protection. For a little Sunday Set Up Bonus, we get into summer nostalgia, Fruit Stripe Gum, neighborhood ice cream trucks, Leon Day, and discount fireworks. This week, when someone else's attitude threatens your peace, ask yourself: Is this really about me... or am I carrying something that was never mine to begin with? And if one door closes, remember that some of life's greatest blessings begin with the word "no." Have a great week, Kweenz. We'll talk Shawtly.

RGF Ep. 281: Airplane Etiquette, Coke Light, and Why Old People Always Want the Window Seat 10.07.2026 44λHey Heal Squad! It’s Friday and somehow, once again, we fooled them and made it through another week. This week, it's an RGF International Edition as Keven checks in from Greece, where a long flight becomes a conversation about travel, patience, kindness, and the little things that somehow drive us all crazy. We talk airplane etiquette, chatty seatmates, the people who refuse to close the window shade on a red-eye, and why the strangers testing our patience often end up reminding us to be a little more compassionate. We talk traveling lighter, lost luggage, disco parties in Greece, celebrity travel etiquette, and why sometimes the smartest travel strategy is to simply buy what you need when you get there. We talk Coke Light versus Diet Coke, Greek politics, Walmart fashion, barrel jeans, tomato sauce stains, and whether moving and grooving through life is better than trying to look perfect while doing it.

1309. Surviving 150+ Brain Tumors: The Healing Habits That Changed Everything 09.07.2026 51λHey Heal Squad! After this week's powerful conversation with Dave Coulier about navigating two cancer diagnoses, we wanted to bring back this inspiring Throwback Thursday episode with Kristin Bostrom. After being diagnosed with breast cancer that later spread throughout her body, including more than 150 brain tumors, Kristin refused to let fear define her future. She shares the mindset shifts that helped her move from victimhood to hope, why she believes healing starts with the way we speak to ourselves, and the life-changing realization that transformed her relationship with her body. Maria and Kristin also dive into the connection between stress, self-love, and healing, the power of changing old thought patterns, and why becoming an active participant in your own healing journey can change everything. Whether you're navigating your own health challenge or supporting someone who is, this conversation is a powerful reminder that healing isn't just physical…it's emotional, mental, and deeply personal.

1308. Dave Coulier’s Life After Cancer: The Side Effects He's Still Battling & the Hidden Toxins He Avoids 08.07.2026 33λHey Heal Squad! Today we're back with Full House's Dave Coulier (yes, Joey Gladstone himself)and this time he's really opening up about what he thinks may have contributed to not one, but two different cancers. Somewhere in the middle of treatment, Dave found himself asking a question most of us never think to ask until it's too late: what have I been exposing my body to, every single day? That one question sent him down a rabbit hole…. reading ingredient labels, questioning everything under his own sink, rethinking what's actually on his plate, and realizing how genuinely overwhelming it is to figure out what "healthy" even means anymore. He breaks it down into a simple 3-step framework for vetting what you bring into your home, and honestly, you'll want to hear exactly what it is. Dave also gets into the surprising products he swapped out first after his diagnosis, and why he believes reducing your toxic load doesn't require perfection, just a few consistent, everyday swaps, which is exactly what led him to build AWEAR Market in the first place.And perhaps most powerfully, Dave gets candid about where he is today. Months after treatment ended, he opens up about the side effects he's still navigating from chronic throat pain and changes to his voice to the unexpected ways cancer continues to impact his body, his marriage, and everyday life. He also shares the incredible support that carried him through it all: his wife Melissa and the hockey community to the unforgettable day he learned he was cancer-free... the very same day his grandson was born.If you've ever wondered where to start on your own health journey, or what life after cancer really looks like, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Healthy Living Doesn't Have to Be All-or-Nothing: Dave shares why he and his wife Melissa live by the 80/20 rule, explaining how consistency, not perfection, has helped him build healthier habits that are realistic, sustainable, and guilt-free. Your Home Could Be Impacting Your Health More Than You Think: After cancer, Dave began questioning everything—from toothpaste and deodorant to food dyes, plastics, clothing, and household products. He shares the simple ingredient "red flags" he now looks for and the everyday swaps that helped him feel more in control of his health. The Side Effects Nobody Warns You About: Months after finishing treatment, Dave reveals the lingering effects of cancer—from chronic pain and difficulty eating to changes in his voice and intimacy—and why recovery doesn't end when the treatments do.

1307. Full House's Dave Coulier on Two Cancer Diagnoses, His Fight to Heal + Why Laughter Is His Best Medicine 07.07.2026 39λHey Heal Squad! Today, we are so excited to welcome Full House star and comedian Dave Coulier to the podcast, and this is one of those conversations that will make you laugh, make you think, and maybe even change the way you look at your own health. Dave joins us to share an honest update on his health after being diagnosed with not one, but two completely different cancers in less than two years. He opens up about the emotional highs and lows of treatment, the side effects no one prepares you for, and why, through it all, he refused to let cancer take away his sense of humor. In fact, that outlook started long before his diagnosis with one of his closest friends, Bob Saget, whose dark humor helped teach Dave that sometimes laughter really is the best medicine. But this conversation goes far beyond cancer. Together, Maria and Dave get into why so many of us wait until a health crisis to start paying attention to our bodies and why Dave now believes prevention—not panic—is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves. Dave also shares how his diagnosis led him down a rabbit hole of questioning everything—from the food he was eating to the everyday products he was using. That journey eventually inspired AwearMarket, his new marketplace designed to take the guesswork out of finding healthier, less-toxic products for your home and family. One of the most surprising moments? Dave reveals that he had already started cleaning up his diet and reducing inflammation before his cancer diagnosis…which definitely helped his body fight the cancers. It's a powerful reminder that while we can't control everything, the healthy choices we make today are an investment in our future. Enjoy! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Laughter Really Can Be Medicine: Throughout two cancer diagnoses, Dave made one promise to himself: cancer would never take away his sense of humor. He opens up about how finding moments of joy can be just as important as treating the disease. Small Daily Choices Add Up Over Time: After asking himself, "Why did my body fail me?" Dave began questioning everything—from the foods he ate to the products he used every day. He explains why he believes long-term health is shaped by small, consistent choices and how making gradual changes today can have a lasting impact on your future One Cancer Diagnosis Sparked an Entirely New Mission: That search for answers ultimately inspired AwearMarket, his new marketplace dedicated to helping people make healthier, less-toxic choices without feeling overwhelmed.

Sunday Set Up Ep. 44: Would You Rather Be Right… or Free? 05.07.2026 26λHappy Sunday! Welcome to Heal Squad’s The Sunday Set Up. Life lessons to help you start the week. This week, we explore one of the most dangerous traps our minds can fall into: the need to be right. Sparked by a heartbreaking real-life tragedy, Keven examines why being wrong can feel like a threat to our very identity, and why our brains are often wired to defend our beliefs rather than seek the truth. We dive into the psychology of cognitive dissonance, the “backfire effect,” and why our egos often mistake disagreement for danger. Along the way, we explore Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey and Carl Jung’s teachings to uncover why real transformation requires letting go of old certainties—and why that can feel so terrifying. We also discuss how careers, businesses, marriages, and friendships can all quietly crumble when pride takes the driver’s seat, and why humility isn’t weakness—it’s freedom. This week, before your next disagreement, ask yourself: Am I protecting my values… or my identity? Would I rather win the argument… or protect my peace? Because sometimes the greatest victory isn’t proving you’re right—it’s having the wisdom to walk away. Have a beautiful week, Kweenz. We’ll talk shawtly.

Potluck Saturday: Fourth of July Extravaganza! 04.07.2026 48λHappy Pot Luck Saturday! It's our Fourth of July Extravaganza! Olivia Newton-John, Koala Blue, squatter videos, and a deep dive into the Declaration of Independence may just be the most Pot Luck way imaginable to celebrate America's 250th birffday. We talk celebrity branding before celebrity branding was even a thing, the surprising rise and fall of Olivia Newton-John's lifestyle empire, squatter laws, entitlement, and old-school cops. To properly ring in the Fourth of July, we turn to Paul Harvey's unforgettable account of the men who signed the Declaration of Independence and what they sacrificed, why the Bicentennial felt so special to so many of us, Flag Day, town picnics, and an America that somehow felt a little smaller and a little more connected. We talk Betsy Ross, the mystery of who really designed the American flag, VictimCon, two guys with baseball bats solving the world's problems, and The Great American Fourth of July and Other Disasters. It's a Pot Luck Saturday with old Hollywood, American history, Fourth of July nostalgia, and a reminder that some of the freedoms we celebrate came at a far greater cost than we often remember.

RGF Ep. 280: The Cost of Winning an Argument 03.07.2026 47λThis week starts with a forgotten backpack... and somehow ends with one of the biggest conversations we've ever had about anger, entitlement, parenting, and why surviving today's world sometimes means swallowing your pride. We also get into how one shocking real-life murder of Anne's friend over a landlord dispute reminds us that not everyone is playing by the same rules anymore. Why expecting rational behavior from irrational people can be one of the biggest mistakes we make. And why winning an argument is becoming less and less worth it. Then we discuss, how growing up in Boston taught different rules about respect, consequences, and conflict. Why today's culture often rewards outrage over accountability. How **"paying the vig"—accepting a small loss to avoid a catastrophic one—** might be one of the smartest life strategies you'll ever adopt. Then the backpack. We talk about traveling light but always being prepared, surviving Hollywood, the increasing need to curb road rage, the Soup Nazi's surprisingly brilliant life lesson, raising kids who understand boundaries, why discipline can be one of the greatest forms of love, and why Kev is learning to say "no" to Athena. RGF Bonus: Joey Chestnut, Fourth of July traditions, squatter videos, Greek family cookouts, why Kev still carries a Mary Poppins backpack everywhere he goes, and why sometimes the bravest thing you can do... is quietly shuffle off to Buffalo.

1305. The Missing Piece to Lasting Weight Loss w/ Dr. Gary Foster 02.07.2026 56λHey Heal Squad! After this week's conversation about GLP-1s, we wanted to bring back this Throwback Thursday episode because it offers a completely different perspective on weight loss. Maria sits down with Dr. Gary Foster, former Chief Scientific Officer at WW (WeightWatchers), to explore why lasting weight loss isn't just about what you eat, it's about how you think. Together, they unpack the mindset shifts that help people create sustainable habits, overcome shame, build self-compassion, and stop falling into the all-or-nothing cycle that keeps so many of us stuck. Maria also shares her own 40-pound weight loss journey, the simple strategies that helped her keep it off, and why focusing on small, consistent changes was far more powerful than chasing the next diet. Whether you're considering GLP-1s, already taking them, or simply looking for a healthier relationship with food, this episode is a powerful reminder that lasting change starts with your mindset!

1304. Is a GLP-1 Right for You? Side Effects, Risks & The Mistakes to Avoid w/ Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford 01.07.2026 40λHey Heal Squad! We are back with Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford from Harvard Medical School & Massachusetts General Hospital, and we are picking up right where we left off about GLP-1s. Dr. Fatima gets into the stuff people are most confused about. She explains why your body is literally wired to fight back every time you try to lose weight, and why that is not a personal failure. It is just biology. She also gets real about side effects (no sugarcoating here!) and breaks down the very real risk of muscle loss on these medications, plus she shares the exact cardio-to-strength ratio she recommends for every decade of life. Yes, by decade.Then Maria finally asks the question the whole episode has been building toward...who is a GLP-1 actually for? Dr. Fatima answers it directly and also breaks down the difference between single, dual, and triple agonists — including a clinical trial showing nearly 30% total body weight loss that could change everything we know about treating obesity. And Patreon members, we have a bonus episode waiting for you! Dr. Fatima gets into something we did not cover in the main episodes: why you should think twice before ordering GLP-1s through Instagram. It’s worth a listen! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Your Body Isn't Broken, It's Doing Exactly What It Was Designed to Do: Dr. Fatima explains why the body defends its weight set point with everything it has. It isn't a failure of willpower. It is biology. Understanding this changes how you think about these medications. The Muscle Loss Nobody's Warning You About: GLP-1 medications can cause you to lose lean muscle — not just fat. Dr. Fatima breaks down the specific strength-to-cardio ratio she recommends for every decade of life. This is the practical guidance that should come with every prescription but rarely does. Obesity Is a Disease: Dr. Fatima shares what it is like to be ridiculed and stigmatized for caring for patients with obesity and makes the case that the language we use around weight has real consequences for real people. It is a reminder that compassion and science are not mutually exclusive. They are both required.
