What You Don’t Know About Alzheimer’s ft. Dr. Harris
#38: What if Alzheimer’s disease isn’t inevitable? In this powerful episode of The Science of Sound, Dr. Paul Harris breaks down what you don’t know about Alzheimer’s, why millions are at risk earlier than they realize, and the science showing that Alzheimer’s may one day be an optional disease. Nearly 7 million Americans are affected today—and that number will double by 2060—yet most people still believe outdated theories about beta-amyloid plaque being the main cause. Dr. Harris reveals what modern research actually shows: insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, toxins, mold exposure, vascular dysfunction, mitochondrial decline, leaky gut, poor sleep, and genetic factors all play major roles.
You’ll learn why Alzheimer’s can begin in your 20s, how glucose hypometabolism starves the brain, the link between insulin and plaque buildup, why gut health predicts cognitive health, and what labs can identify risk decades early. Dr. Harris also explains how fasting, ketogenic strategies, ketone supplements, exercise, and mitochondrial repair can support brain function—plus the surprising tests that reveal inflammation, toxins, heavy metals, and APOE status. If you’re searching for Alzheimer’s prevention, reversal protocols, brain optimization, dementia warning signs, ketogenic brain health, or what REALLY causes Alzheimer’s, this episode is an essential guide.

How Knowing Your Type Changes Everything – Tracy O'Malley Pt. 2
#37: In this powerful Part 2, Enneagram expert Tracy O’Malley returns to reveal Henry’s Enneagram results live on the show—and it turns out they share the exact same type. Together they unpack what it really means to be an Enneagram 8: the Challenger. From strength, power, and independence to vulnerability, tenderness, and compassion, this conversation is a masterclass in how self-awareness can transform your leadership, marriage, parenting, and spiritual life.
Tracy breaks down the three centers of intelligence (head, heart, and gut), explains why so many online Enneagram tests are inaccurate, and shows how your “superpower” can easily become your kryptonite when your motives are rooted in fear, shame, or ego. Henry and Tracy talk about flexing for the wrong reasons, how trauma can drive overachievement, how to recognize unhealthy patterns before you burn out, and why understanding your type can heal generational patterns in your family. Whether you’re a business leader, parent, or someone hungry for growth, this episode gives you language, tools, and a roadmap to live more aligned with how God designed you.

Mindset, Strategy & Success in Real Estate with Taylor Bay
#36: Top-100 Tulsa realtor Taylor Bay joins Madi (with a cameo from Henry) to talk mindset, strategy, and sustainable success in a saturated market. Taylor shares how service, clear communication, staging details, and consistency built her business over 10 years—while balancing life as a working mom. We get into: guarding your energy, moving on from setbacks, showing up professionally (inside and out), time-blocking for family, the 10,000-hour reality behind “overnight success,” and why a servant’s heart wins more than hustle alone.
Beyond the headlines, we get practical: cutting the noise in a crowded space, pre-framing expectations with clients, simple staging wins that move listings faster, and what “professional energy” looks like day to day. Taylor opens up about starting from zero, riding market cycles without burning out, and the small systems—follow-up rhythms, daily prep, and family-first time blocks—that compound over a decade. Whether you’re in real estate or any service business, you’ll leave with mindset shifts, tactical takeaways, and a reminder that excellence and kindness are a winning strategy.

Breaking the Cycle of Stress: How Your Mind Rewires Your Immune System
#35: 2025’s Nobel Prize in Physiology/Medicine puts regulatory T cells (Tregs) and the FOXP3 gene center stage—and in this episode, Christian Fowler joins host Aaron Fournier to connect that discovery to everyday tools that lower stress and inflammation. We break down how IL-10 from Tregs crosses the blood–brain barrier to reduce neuroinflammation, why chronic stress down-regulates FOXP3 (and Tregs), and how mindset, vagal tone, sleep, sunlight, movement, and targeted sound (like 528 Hz) can help flip you from fight-or-flight into rest-and-digest. We also discuss studies showing Treg expansion reduces anxiety-like behavior, brief/acute stress boosts dopamine and learning, and chronic stress suppresses immune tolerance—plus practical “wins” (make your bed, humming, Mindful Intentions) that build resilience daily.

Dr. Paul Harris on the Limbic Trauma Loop: Brain, Inflammation & Recovery
#31: Join host Aaron Fournier and functional-medicine detective Dr. Paul Harris for a clear, practical breakdown of the limbic system trauma loop — what it is, how it starts (even in utero), why it produces brain fog, chronic stress and inflammation, and what you can do to reset the system.
In this episode we cover:
• What the limbic system does and its key parts (thalamus, hypothalamus, amygdala, hippocampus, prefrontal cortex)
• How chronic stress, infections (including long-COVID), heavy metals, mold/mycotoxins, EMF exposure and disrupted sleep can trigger or perpetuate a trauma loop
• Common signs: persistent brain fog, sleep disruption, exaggerated emotional responses, chronic fatigue, food sensitivities, autoimmune patterns
• Assessment options: clinical screening, neuroimaging, limbic trauma questionnaire, targeted toxin/mycotoxin testing (e.g., mercury tri-test, TOTAL TOX)
• Actionable interventions: DNRS neuroretraining, somatic trauma work, EMDR, vagal-nerve exercises (cold exposure, gargling, humming), targeted detox and supportive frequency compositions from Soaak
• Real outcomes and hope: restoring parasympathetic function, calming immune overreaction, improved cognition and quality of life
