The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show

Most parents are quietly paving the road their kids were supposed to learn to walk on by themselves and Jocko Willink has spent 20 years watching what happens when that road is too smooth.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Jocko Willink, retired Navy SEAL commander, founder of Echelon Front, and bestselling author of Extreme Ownership and Discipline Equals Freedom, to discuss:Why the "apex parent / apex kid" mindset is a quiet trap, and what to do instead of paving the roadHow nature vs nurture actually plays out and what you can and cannot shape in your childThe one trait Jocko wants his kids to inherit (and why every virtue becomes a vice when pushed to the extreme)The lie that successful, high-functioning people tell themselves about wanting moreThe single most important trait of a great leader and the one habit Jocko says will make every other part of your life better starting tomorrowYou'll walk away with a clearer operating system for the kind of parent, leader, and person you actually want to be and the one habit Jocko swears is the highest-ROI move any human can make.Thank you to our sponsors: BodyHealth - Use the code LYON20 to get 20% off your first order https://bit.ly/48SJ7ACOur Place - Visit https://bit.ly/4c8OrAB and use code DRLYON for 10% off sitewide.Branch Basics - Get 15% off the Premium Starter Kit at https://bit.ly/4eu4Mm8 with the code DRLYON.Amp - Visit https://bit.ly/41BvjXj to get your AI-powered at-home gym for smarter, personalized training.Watch on Spotify.

Most men don't know they have a pelvic floor, and most doctors aren't trained to look for dysfunction in it. The result: testicles are being surgically removed for pain that's actually neuropathic, at double the rate of a far more effective nerve-sparing procedure.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Susan Macdonald, a board-certified urologist, surgical program director at Penn State, and one of only ~30 U.S. specialists treating chronic pelvic pain in men, to discuss:Why "prostatitis" is often the wrong diagnosis, and how rounds of antibiotics mask the real problemThe male pelvic floor anatomy almost no medical school teaches, and how to recognize dysfunction in yourself or a patientOff-label medications (Cymbalta, gabapentin, amitriptyline) that are quietly transforming chronic pelvic pain treatmentWhy erectile dysfunction is rising sharply in teenagers, and the role pornography plays in rewiring young brainsWho actually qualifies for a penile implant, and what the surgery really involvesIf you've been told your pain is "all in your head," or you're a clinician seeing patients fall through the cracks, this conversation gives you the framework, the language, and the next steps to find real answers.Thank you to our sponsors: Manukora - Go to https://www.MANUKORA.com/DRLYON to save 31% plus $25 worth of free gifts.Timeline - Get 20% off your Mitopure order at https://www.timeline.com/lyonBONCHARGE - Save 15% at https://boncharge.com/ with code DRLYONExplore More from Dr. Gabrielle LyonPremium Podcast Subscription: Ad-free episodes, key takeaway summaries, exclusive Q&A, and behind-the-scenes content https://foreverstrong.supercast.comWeekly newsletter: Recipes, podcast updates, and practical weekly insights https://drgabriellelyon.com/sign-up/Apply to become a patient: Personalized care with Dr. Lyon’s clinical team https://drgabriellelyon.com/new-patient-inquiry/Find Dr. Susan Macdonald at:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drsusanmacdonald/X (Twitter): https://x.com/smacdonald_mdLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susan-macdonald-506324191/Connect with Dr. Gabrielle LyonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drgabriellelyon/TikTok: @drgabriellelyonX (Twitter): https://x.com/drgabriellelyonFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/doctorgabriellelyonChapters00:00 - Introduction01:42 - Meet Dr. Susan Macdonald03:00 - The high-powered lawyer nobody could help05:01 - Why testicle pain is 5% of urology visits07:49 - Men have a pelvic floor (and what it does)12:46 - How a man knows he has pelvic floor dysfunction21:30 - Why these muscles are "too tight" in men26:33 - Chronic pain rewires the brain29:21 - Stress, trauma, and the mind-body connection33:29 - Stretching, breathing, and self-treatment at home36:21 - The medications that actually work (Cymbalta, gabapentin)44:34 - Muscle relaxers, acupuncture, and the guidelines panel55:09 - Sexual trauma and chronic pelvic pain01:00:08 - The "pain plus" diagnostic framework01:05:23 - The micro-surgical denervation surgery01:08:36 - Erectile dysfunction in 17-year-olds01:11:00 - How porn rewires young men's brains01:18:27 - 40% of men by 40, 50% by 5001:23:39 - Penile implants: who qualifies, how they work01:28:10 - Stage 4 cancer at 42 and the pivot to teaching01:34:17 - Living big with finite time01:39:00 - Closing message to chronic pain patientsIf you found this episode valuable, share it with someone who would benefit from it.This episode includes paid sponsorships.The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Podcast and YouTube are for general information purposes only and do not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Most people are chasing the wrong version of strength and paying for it with pain, poor movement, and a body that breaks down faster than it should.

We are living through one of the most significant shifts in medicine in generations, and most people don’t fully understand what it means. Dr. Christle Guevarra joins me to zoom out on the entire GLP-1 landscape; from the drug’s origins as a modest diabetes treatment in 2005 to today’s third-generation medications still moving through clinical trials, and what all of it means for the future of obesity, performance, and longevity.🙌Thank you to our sponsors:🌍 Cozy Earth - Go to https://bit.ly/4teXQhz for up to 20% off!🤍 Timeline - Get 20% off your Mitopure order at https://www.timeline.com/lyon🚲 Carol Bike - Visit https://bit.ly/4tg4cxa and use code LYON for $100 off your CAROL BikeExplore More from Dr. Gabrielle Lyon:Premium Podcast Subscription: Ad-free episodes, key takeaway summaries, exclusive Q&A, and behind-the-scenes content https://foreverstrong.supercast.comWeekly newsletter: Recipes, podcast updates, and practical weekly insights https://drgabriellelyon.com/sign-up/Apply to become a patient: Personalized care with Dr. Lyon’s clinical team https://drgabriellelyon.com/new-patient-inquiry/Connect with Dr. Christle GuevarraYouTube: https://bit.ly/4vDMVQaInstagram: https://bit.ly/4mxnfAcGet Dr. Christle Guevarra’s book, “Bodybuilding Anatomy”: https://bit.ly/3ODIDYd📺Watch the “Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show” every Tuesday at 9AM EST:YouTube: https://bit.ly/4boCFC3Spotify: https://bit.ly/4cWTbLG📱Connect with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon:Instagram: https://bit.ly/4uk9adcTikTok: https://bit.ly/3OFK3kJX.com: https://bit.ly/4l3YlaXFacebook: https://bit.ly/3MBrJso⏰Timestamps:00:00 Intro of Show06:48 Changes in the Fat Loss Landscape06:54 Engagement in Competitive Powerlifting11:29 Perspectives on GLP-1 Medication26:10 Perimenopause Journey27:13 Topamax28:03 Urosepsis30:23 Weight Loss Programming31:43 Patients' Decision to Take GLP-137:44 Risks and Effects on Taking GLP-138:10 Pancreatitis41:40 Fen-Phen (Fenfluramine/phentermine) / Ephedra45:59 Who Should Not Take GLP-1?49:24 Proper Nutrition to Support Taking GLP-152:14 Recommendation for the New Dietary Guidelines59:01 Residency and Sports Medicine Fellowship1:02:38 Are Athletes Recommended to Take GLP-1?1:08:49 Lack of Randomized, Controlled Trials for Peptides1:10:38 Key Take-away's from Dr. Christle1:13:24 Should Women Weigh Themselves?1:21:02 Should Women Lift Weights?1:21:55 What's Next for Dr. Christle?‼️Disclaimer: The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Podcast and YouTube are for general information purposes only and do not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

The moment you decide to show up publicly, you open the door to opinions from people who would never say those things to your face. Dominique Sachse, journalist, author, and content creator who has lived her life on camera for over three decades, gets honest about what it costs to put yourself out there, why online cruelty is a psychology problem more than a content problem, and how “Teflon Dom” developed the thick skin to let none of it redirect her.Want ad-free episodes?
