We've all heard the term 'resiliency' before - but what does that actually mean? Remember - it's not about how much stress you can take, but how well you can RECOVER that really matters. Rachel digs into the systems behind how we identify resiliency as it is today, from understanding your allostatic load to how stress, worry, and even some boutique holistic approaches can often lead you astray from your best path forward. One thing's for sure - every body is different - and that's why Rachel and Lauren have got the answers for you no matter where you're at on your health journey.  Follow Rachel on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/rachelscheer/ Follow Lauren on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/laurenungeldi/ --- Struggling with gut issues, hormone imbalances, or burnout?

Editor's Note - Pardon our dust! Please be aware that this episode's audio quality is lower than usual due to unexpected technical issues. We'll be back on track with restored audio next week on a new episode of UNLOCKED. Why don't we take more risks? Why do we all dream of quitting our jobs and hitting the road, or starting a business and working for ourselves - chasing dreams we want, but feel we may never realize? Roxie Saffaie thinks she's got the answer. She's a writer, entrepreneur, podcaster, (and a friend to Rachel and Lauren of course) and an EXPERT in self-mastery - the ability to control your own emotions, behaviors, and actions to achieve your goals and live a fulfilling life. For Roxie, to truly become the master of one's own destiny, you first have to learn to trust yourself. That's why she's joining Rachel and Lauren on the couch this week to talk self-expression, self-realization, and how getting to know yourself is always the first step in finding your future.  Find out More About Roxy on her Substack at https://roxanneroxysaffaie.substack.com/ Follow Roxanne Saffaie on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/roxylook/ Follow Rachel on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/rachelscheer/ Follow Lauren on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/laurenungeldi/ --- Struggling with gut issues, hormone imbalances, or burnout?

When should men start hormone therapy? Does testosterone affect fertility? And why is there such a stigma around T in the male community - especially for veterans and warriors? Sidney Gordon might have the answer - he's a father, entrepreneur, and the founder and CEO of Core Medical Group, one of the top anti-aging and hormone replacement groups in the country. As the leader of one of the most prominent HRT/TRT practices in the country, Sidney knows firsthand just how invaluable hormone replacement therapy can be, whether it comes in pills, pellets, injections, or creams. That's why Lauren and Rachel are taking UNLOCKED on the road this week to Sidney's personal podcast studio to better understand just how powerful testosterone can be, in men AND women, and how you can be using it to develop a happier, healthier, more active lifestyle.  Four Points Worth Remembering:   - Why Testosterone is Important for EVERYBODY, Not Just Men  - Where the Male Stigma Comes From to Hide Testosterone Use  - Whether Pellets, Creams, or Injections are the Best Method for Hormone Replacement Therapy   - How TRT Can Immediately Change Your Life For the Better Check out Rachel's Appearance on The Sidney Gordon Podcast at https://youtu.be/tIm_Wj58BJU?si=SDe0kGhIV7_t7L0U Find out More About Sidney's Work at Core Medical Group at https://coremedicalgrp.com/ Follow Sidney Gordon on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/sjgcore/ Follow Rachel on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/rachelscheer/ Follow Lauren on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/laurenungeldi/ --- Struggling with gut issues, hormone imbalances, or burnout?

Testosterone isn't just a male hormone - it's essential for bone density, cognitive function, mood stability, and even cardiovascular health in both men and women all over the world. Often considered as more of a 'male hormone,' declining levels of testosterone are all too common, and can lead to fatigue, weight gain, and a loss of vitality among other health risks. Just take it from Dr. Rob Kominiarek, an board-certified osteopathic physician with advanced training in age management and hormone optimization who is leading the charge over as President and Chief Medical Director at ReNue Health.  For Dr. Rob, testosterone isn't just for bodybuilders - it's in every one of us, and better health starts with unlocking the secrets to optimizing key hormones like testosterone and estrogen so that our bodies can operate at peak efficiency. That's why we're sitting down with Dr. Rob this week to talk sleep, supplements, men, women, combat veterans, and everything in between when it comes to understanding just how important testosterone can be in your life - and why so many of us lack the inherent knowledge we need to better understand our own biology.  Four Unforgettable Points this Week:   - Understanding The Key Roles Testosterone Plays in Men AND Women  - Why Testosterone Levels Are Dropping All Over the Country  - Why Sleep, Diet, and Exercise Really Are Pathways to A Better Life   - Overrated Longevity Strategies - and Why Supplements Can't Solve Everything Find out More About Dr. Rob and ReNue Health at https://www.renuehealth.com/ Follow Rachel on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/rachelscheer/ Follow Lauren on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/laurenungeldi/ --- Struggling with gut issues, hormone imbalances, or burnout?

Today we're diving into something that is transforming healthcare as we know it - why functional medicine isn't just a trend, but actually the future of healthcare.  While conventional medicine often focuses on treating symptoms with medication, functional medicine seeks to uncover and address the root cause of disease. In this episode, we reveal why functional medicine is more than just theory - and how it's already changing lives for the better all over the world.  Rachel reveals the life-changing diagnosis that she received that encouraged her to push deeper into medicine, and how her patient work at Baylor began fanning the flames of functional medicine as the clearest path forward for true, lasting change. Rachel's experience didn't just change her life for the better - it encouraged her to branch out into founding her own practice at Rachel Scheer Nutrition, changing the lives of every patient she's worked with since.  Functional medicine isn't just theory - it's proven, practical science that's more effective at preventing disease than simply treating the symptoms like we've been taught to with conventional methods.  Four Key Takeaways this Week:   - How Functional Medicine Differs from Conventional Theory  - Why Functional Medicine is More Effective Than A Symptoms-Based Approach to Healing  - Rachel's Personal Testimony to the Power of Lasting Change   - Where Healthcare is Headed in the Future, and how Functional Medicine is Changing Everything  Follow Rachel on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/rachelscheer/ Follow Lauren on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/laurenungeldi/ --- Struggling with gut issues, hormone imbalances, or burnout?

What if PTSD isn’t a mental disorder—but a physical injury that can be healed? When advanced brain scans revealed trauma’s visible scars on the brain, Dr. Eugene Lipov saw an opportunity: if trauma can be seen, it can be treated. Enter The God Shot—a revolutionary procedure that resets the body’s stuck fight-or-flight response using a simple nerve block called SGB. One injection. Ten minutes. The nervous system reset back to a pre-trauma state. Years of hypervigilance, anxiety, and emotional reactivity can begin to fade—often within minutes. This isn’t just theory. Dr. Lipov has treated thousands of patients—from Navy SEALs and first responders to survivors of abuse, grief, burnout, and invisible wounds. He’s testified before Congress, published in top medical journals, and been featured in The Wall Street Journal, WIRED, and USA Today. And through it all, one truth keeps emerging: trauma is an injury—and injuries can heal. In this episode, Dr. Lipov breaks down the treatment, the science, and the movement that’s redefining how we understand trauma. He also shares the deeply personal reason behind his mission—and why he’s spent the last two decades fighting to bring real solutions to those who need them most. What you’ll learn:  - How The God Shot works to reset the nervous system  - Why PTSD isn’t a mental disorder—it’s a biological injury  - What makes SGB so effective—and who it’s helping  - What this means for the future of trauma and mental health care Whether you’ve lived through trauma, love someone who has, or simply want to understand what’s possible—this episode will shift your perspective on healing, hope, and what comes next. The era of managing trauma is over. The age of healing has begun.

Brandon Wheeler is equal parts warrior and philosophy. A decorated Marine, global strategist, and fiercely principled operator, Brandon has lived and worked in over 100 countries—advising top-level defense, intelligence, diplomacy, and economic leaders from the frontlines in Syria and Libya to briefing U.S. ambassadors and presidential candidates. His work has shaped international policy, humanitarian coordination, and economic strategy around the world, and his life often reads more like a real-life novel than fiction. But what makes Brandon truly extraordinary isn't just his resume—it's who he is as a thinker, as a friend, and as a man deeply rooted in purpose. That’s why this week on UNLOCKED, we’re diving into some of the most timely and provocative questions shaping culture and leadership today—through the lens of gender, identity, and influence. Topics like gender equality, toxic masculinity, and the cultural codes that shape power are front and center in today’s world—and this conversation doesn’t shy away. We ask what these dynamics really mean on a personal and societal level, and how they show up in leadership, policy, and the very way we relate to each other. Lauren and Rachel also share real stories from their own lives—navigating power as women in male-dominated spaces, challenging assumptions, and learning to lead without sacrificing their feminine strength. Topics This Week:  - How Women Are Treated Both Inside and Outside the United States  - Why Female Empowerment Has Been Historically Leveraged as a Political Tool  - How Gender Roles Have Evolved Within Each of Us  - Personal Stories of Navigating Male-Dominated Worlds  - The Realities of Gender, Culture, and Power That Shape Our World Follow Rachel on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/rachelscheer/ Follow Lauren on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/laurenungeldi/ --- Struggling with gut issues, hormone imbalances, or burnout?

High performers rarely talk about the fear behind the grind: if I stop pushing, will I lose what makes me great? In this episode, we get real about how trauma shaped our drive—and how thriving in adversity became both a superpower and a trap. We dive into the fear of healing, the addiction to chaos, and what post-traumatic growth really looks like when you choose to evolve instead of just endure.

In this episode of Unlocked, we sit down with Trent Shelton—former NFL wide receiver, best-selling author, and one of the most powerful motivational voices of our generation. After playing for teams like the Colts, Seahawks, and Washington, Trent walked away from the game and into an identity crisis. Everything he thought defined him—status, success, performance—was gone. And what came next wasn’t a highlight reel. It was heartbreak, rock bottom, and the quiet unraveling no one talks about. But instead of staying there, Trent picked up his phone, hit record, and started speaking raw truth—first to himself, then to the world. Those two-minute videos became a global movement, reaching over 60 million people every week. In this conversation, we get real about:  - Burnout culture & rebuilding from breakdown  - Identity, self-worth, and the pain of letting go  - The loneliness of growth—and rejection from the people closest to you  - What it really means to love yourself and protect your peace  - The gap between who the world sees—and who you really are Learn More about Trent's Books, Podcast, and RehabTime at https://www.trentshelton.com Follow Trent Shelton on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/trentshelton Follow Rachel on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/rachelscheer/ Follow Lauren on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/laurenungeldi/ Whether you're struggling with gut issues, hormone imbalances, or simply want to optimize your overall well-being, Rachel and her team at the RSN Institute are here to help you thrive.

Tyler Grey is a former elite DELTA FORCE Operator who spent years executing high-risk missions at the pinnacle of U.S. special operations—until an explosion in Baghdad nearly took his life and ended his military career. After transitioning to Hollywood as a writer and actor, Tyler seemed to have landed on his feet. But beneath the surface, addiction—whether to chaos, substances, sex, or work—was still running the show. In Part Two of his conversation with Rachel Scheer and Lauren Ungeldi, Tyler reveals the breakthrough that changed everything: the realization that all addictions, no matter how different they appear, often stem from a single root cause. This discovery became the turning point in his journey. Listen in as Tyler breaks down the flawed recovery methods that failed him, the ones that finally worked, and the universal pathway to healing that can help anyone ready to confront the real source of their pain.

In Part One of this conversation, Tyler shares what it’s like to feel your very identity shatter—and then fight to piece it back together. Rachel and Lauren dive into how childhood trauma shaped his path to war, how chaos became his addiction, and how the very abilities that made him a superhero in the eyes of the world turned him into a supervillain in his own. They expose how the medical system continues to fail warriors like Tyler—and why true healing takes more than a prescription.

Today on the Scheer Madness Podcast, Rachel is joined by Autumn Smith. Autumn Smith suffered from debilitating digestive issues and crippling anxiety for most of her life. Specialist after specialist told her nothing could be done, and she was ready to give up. But as one final attempt at a life free of health issues, Autumn decided to harness the power of whole foods. She cleaned up her diet and in just 30 days, her IBS was cured. But that was just the beginning. She also had less anxiety, was mentally sharper, and a bubbly side of her that she forgot existed came back. Since then, Autumn has dedicated her life to helping others harness the power of whole foods to live vibrant lives. In 2013, she and her husband Chas launched Paleovalley, a company dedicated to helping people get the essential nutrients they need, without added sugars, grains, and other harmful ingredients. But they didn’t stop there. After learning about the healing powers of grass fed, pasture raised meat - both for our bodies and the planet - Autumn and Chas started their next venture. In 2018, they launched Wild Pastures, a regenerative meat delivery service that sends 100% grass fed pasture raised meat directly to your doorstep. Autumn dives into her story, and how her childhood struggles with IBS ultimately propelled her to dive deeper into the health & nutrition space. Autumn then dives into why she believes one’s diet plays a vital role in one’s general health; she also discusses what she believes are some of the MOST problematic ingredients for health, along with what she believes are some of the TOP foods for Gut-Friendly Health.
