Fresh Start with Dr. David

The ”Fresh Start with Dr. David” Podcast Fresh Start with Dr. David (Refresh, Reset, Reboot, & Rejuvenate Your Mind, Spirit, Soul and Psyche) The ”Fresh Start with Dr. David” Podcast is a podcast where I introduce and chat about a variety of topics related to mental health and wellness, psychiatry, medicine, health, wellness, diet, nutrition, life, life direction, life purpose, self improvement, self development, self awareness, insight, personal growth, personal and professional development and evolution, technology, American living and a host of other topics. During ”Fresh Start with Dr. David” Podcasts, I share my approaches to mental health and wellness, the concepts that I use across my practices, and topics of interests from my current books and any upcoming books. My reason for starting the ”Fresh Start with Dr. David” Podcast is my firm belief that the current mental health and wellness system in the United States is really not a system. And, It’s BROKEN. It’s a group of frequently unaligned and unconnected parts that usually fail to synchronize, leaving patients lost, confused and exasperated. In addition, unfortunately, our healthcare system & our mental health system are so married to the pharmaceutical industry that it’s practically impossible to separate them from one another. Our healthcare and mental health care systems are generally focused upon addressing the symptoms of problems, conditions & disorders, but they often fail to address the underlying root causes of those symptoms, which also frustrates and exasperates patients. In our mental health realm, patients are often prescribed medications that are not only tolerance building & habit forming, but directly & quickly lead to dependence & addiction, and unwanted side effects. In many cases, these patients are never informed about the potential of these medications to lead to tolerance, habit formation, dependence & addiction. Physicians are first asked to ”Do No Harm”, then tasked to ”Do Good.” However, when you marry that with industries (insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, etc.) whose primary goals are profit, then it leads to a number of conflicts of interest that the healthcare industry does not seem to want to address. In the present age, it seems to lead to the belief and policies that support it that the answer to all of life’s problems is to simply take a pill. I don’t believe that people need more pills. I believe that people need better answers and real solutions that get to the root causes of their problems & symptoms. I also believe that the medical education & training systems in America are broken, to the detriment of patients. I believe that many children, adolescents & young adults are not receiving the basics & foundations to be resilient in an ever complex & competitive world that increasingly requires more & more in order for resilience & success to be created. Finally, I believe that in many ways humanity needs to return to the basics of human life & decency, including the concepts, characteristics, traits, values, beliefs & foundational principles that define the best of who we are as a species.

This Episode of the Fresh Start with Dr. David Podcast is all about the concept of STABILITY.
Season 2 - Episode 4 - Life Stability (Stabilizing Factors for a Happy, Peaceful, Growth-Driven Life) with Special Guest Melat Tezera - Fresh Start with Dr. David
What is STABILITY?
What are the Main Types of STABILITY?
What brings about STABILITY?
What helps to maintain STABILITY?
What does INSTABILITY look like?
What are the Factors that help to create and maintain STABILITY in the Longerm?
Why is it that Short-term Bandaids and Cheap Fixes usually fail to lead to STABILITY?
During this podcast I'm joined by a Very Special Guest, Ms. Melat Tezera, who shares her journey and insights about going from instability to stability in a relatively short period of time. In particular, Melat shares her experiences about a crippling level of anxiety that got so bad that she could not drive. However, over the past year of being a client of mine, she's now back on the roads, uncovering and working through past traumas, becoming courageous, brave, strong and resilient, and has even started her own Design Firm, Melat Tezera Designs, which helps people, organizations, small businesses and companies achieve their goals through social media advertising and marketing strategies and campaigns. Specifically, Melat has worked with larged companies like Kroger and Comcast achieve their advertising and marketing goals. Melat can be reached through Instagram by the handle "melattezera" and by email at melattezeradesigns@gmail.com.
Definitely listen to the full podcast and gain insights through what she shares about her journey of building the mental muscles to overcome life challenges, and how she made the decision to choose a holistic approach at my practices after having gone to 18 physicians seeking solutions to her issues, and only having addictive prescriptions shoved in her face.
Stability Variables
Definition of Stability: the quality, state, or degree of being stable: such as. : the strength to stand or endure : firmness. : the property of a body that causes it when disturbed from a condition of equilibrium or steady motion to develop forces or moments that restore the original condition.
Emotional stability (the opposite of neuroticism) is a fundamental personality trait that has to do with being even-tempered, particularly in the face of challenges and threats.
Cumulative continuity principle
The generalization that personality attributes show increasing stability with age and experience.
Maturity principle
The generalization that personality attributes associated with the successful fulfillment of adult roles increase with age and experience.
Personal stability is a lifestyle characterized by appropriate and well-thought-out decisions, consistent behavior and moderate mood swings.
What gives life stability?
Stability means that you feel satisfied with what you have. You might want more, but you perceive your current situation to be OK, to be workable, to provide you comfort and satisfaction. It provides fulfillment. Consider the main areas of your life – your work, your relationships, and your current situation.
3 Traits of a Stable Person:
An Anchor/Safe Harbor for self and others
Consistent
Well-rounded
Factors that bring about Stability:
Health & Wellness
Vocational Successes (and challenges)
Financial Security
Self-Care & Me- Time (Meditation, Retreats, Downtime)
Healthy Friendships & Relationships
Peace of Mind
Resilience
Recreational Activities, Hobbies & Interests
Self-Worth, Self-Value, Self-Esteem, Self-Confidence, & Self-Awareness
Insight
Continued Growth, Maturity & Evolution
New Experiences

Season 2 - Episode 3 - Ohio Train Derailment & Toxic Chemicals, Saving Our Environment, Fixing America's Infrastructure - Fresh Start with Dr. David Podcast
This episode is all about the Ohio Train Derailment & Toxic Chemicals, Saving Our Environment, & Fixing America's Infrastructure.
I discuss the toxic chemicals that were released into the environment, the lack of reliability of testing, and other variables that should make members of that Ohio community think twice about trusting the air, water, soil and other parts of the environment that have likely been affected by this preventable train derailment.

This Podcast is all about Reaching Your New Year's Resolutions, Goals and Ambitions, and how to create them in a way that prevents you from failing again.
I also talk about what to expect if you book a New Year's Resolution Session, or how to book a Year-End-Review [YER]/Bridge-The-Gap [BTG] Session, which is even more powerful and beneficial that a New Year's Resolution Session:
Are you ready to Reset, Renew, Rebuild, Refresh, Rejuvenate, Reinvigorate, & Reignite your purpose for 2023???
The beginning of 2023 is a New Opportunity to reach your goals, ambitions and full potential...
A New Year truly is a unique opportunity for Empowerment, Growth, Evolution and Advancement!
It's a Rebirth, if you choose to see and use it that way!
Question: Did you reach all or even most of your personal, life, relationship, financial, health/wellness, career/professional or growth/improvement goals in 2022?
1st Thought: If you do the same or nearly the same things in 2023, won’t you probably have the same degree and quantity of results and outcomes at the end of 2023?
2nd Thought: If you want better results and outcomes this year (i.e., in 2023), then don’t you need to strategically plan, invest and execute carefully selected and crafted goals that are consistent with your current desires, abilities, skills and resources? If not, then won’t you end up in the very same place, situation and circumstances as you did in 2022?
Question: Are you ready to actually reach your New Year’s Resolutions this year (instead of just thinking and talking about them)???
I'm currently offering a SPECIAL, DISCOUNTED New Year's Resolutions 1.5 Hour Session [$350.00 for non-clients ($150 DISCOUNT), $250 for past clients ($250 DISCOUNT), $150 for current clients ($350 DISCOUNT). It’s regularly $500.00. Having this solitary session does not require any initial consultation sessions. It's a single session to jumpstart 2023 with a HUGE DISCOUNT, which is an investment in your future growth, abundance, wellness and success!
If you desire even more, than you can request a SPECIAL 2-Hour “Year End Review/Bridge The Gap" Session ($200.00 for Current Clients, $300 for Past Clients; $400 for non-clients) to summarize and finalize issues from 2022 and to create goals, objectives and aspirations (also known as New Year’s Resolutions) for 2023 at a discounted rate. This session is a special session with a focus on comparing and contrasting what occurred in 2022 to what you desire to achieve in 2023, and creating planning and action steps to bridge the gaps between the two (i.e., how to go from what you’ve been and done to who you want to become and what you want to achieve). It’s also a very Goal-Directed, White Board-Oriented Session. It’s not meant to fix past issues that we’ve explored or to explore additional ones. It’s a highly focused, accounting and assessment session to help you transition from 2022 and planning for a successful 2023. Clients who've already had a YER/BTG (Year End Review/Bridge The Gap) Session have reported that it has absolutely ignited their ambitions, desires and motivations for 2023! Many of them have already made changes to the diets, spending habits, and daily rituals. You'll also receive templates for a New Vision Board, a New Goal & Strategy Board and my new 360 Degree Success Model with either of these sessions!
I also present principles, strategies and approaches to impulse control and behavioral change in my self-improvement and diet/nutrition/weight loss books listed below. If you purchase a physical copy of any book, then I'll give you a FREE Audible Version to listen to at home, in your car or anywhere else on your desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone.

This Episode is all about Holiday Habits, especially eating and spending habits. I chat about the variables involved with habit change as well as what you need to do right not if you want to limit how much weight you gain during the holidays and how much money you spend.

So, If you don't want to overindulge in food or purchases during the holiday season, start making changes NOW.

Episode 5 - Healthcare & Medical Diagnosis, Treatment & Management Issues in America - Fresh Start with Dr. David
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fresh-start-with-dr-david/id1647991154
This episode is all about how medical conditions, disorders and symptoms are handled in our healthcare system. It discusses approaches as well as the huge quantity of flaws within our current healthcare and mental health systems, including flaws that could negatively affect you and how you are treated clinically.
Here are some issues and variables to consider:
1. Patient/Client Presentation
2. Cultural Factors & Biases
3. Knowledge & Skill of the Provider
4. Training & Experience of the Provider
5. Clinical Decision-Making Abilities & Factors
6. Efficacy & Compliance
7. Disease Management & Remission/Cure
8.Diagnostic, Management & Treatment Costs
9.Patient Experience & Patient Satisfaction
10.Clinical Outcomes and Long-term Results (Did the Treatment & Management Efforts Work?)
a. In the Short-Term
b. In the Long-Term
c. During the Patient's/Client's Life-Time
Of course, I'll also be introducing Solutions.
My reason for starting the "Fresh Start" Podcast is my firm belief the that the current mental health and wellness system in the United States is really not a system. And, It's BROKEN. In our mental health realm, patients are often prescribed medications that are not only tolerance building & habit forming, but directly & quickly lead to dependence & addiction, and unwanted side effects. In many cases, these patients are never informed about the potential of these medications to lead to tolerance, habit formation, dependence & addiction.
Finally, I believe that in many ways humanity needs to return to the basics of human life & decency, including the concepts, characteristics, traits, values, beliefs & foundational principles that define the best of who we are as a species.

My reason for starting the ”Fresh Start with Dr. David” Podcast is my firm belief that the current mental health and wellness system in the United States is really not a system. And, It’s BROKEN. It’s a group of frequently unaligned and unconnected parts that usually fail to synchronize, leaving patients lost, confused and exasperated. In addition, unfortunately, our healthcare system & our mental health system are so married to the pharmaceutical industry that it’s practically impossible to separate them from one another.
Our healthcare and mental health care systems are generally focused upon addressing the symptoms of problems, conditions & disorders, but they often fail to address the underlying root causes of those symptoms, which also frustrates and exasperates patients. In our mental health realm, patients are often prescribed medications that are not only tolerance building & habit forming, but directly & quickly lead to dependence & addiction, and unwanted side effects. In many cases, these patients are never informed about the potential of these medications to lead to tolerance, habit formation, dependence & addiction.
Physicians are first asked to ”Do No Harm”, then tasked to ”Do Good.” However, when you marry that with industries (insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, etc.) whose primary goals are profit, then it leads to a number of conflicts of interest that the healthcare industry does not seem to want to address.
In the present age, it seems to lead to the belief and policies that support it that the answer to all of life’s problems is to simply take a pill. I don’t believe that people need more pills. I believe that people need better answers and real solutions that get to the root causes of their problems & symptoms.
Our nation needs a Fresh Start, a New Balance, and a Reset when it comes to health, wellness, and mental health. We’re past the point of more bandaids.
