In this episode, I explore the often overlooked yet essential role of appropriate brutality and dominance in various aspects of life. While kindness and empathy are fundamental virtues, there are moments when a more forceful, decisive approach is necessary to protect our boundaries, lead effectively, and resolve conflicts.
Drawing on historical examples, psychological insights, and practical applications, I examine the ethical use of dominance and the balance required to harness its power for the greater good. Join me as I delve into the nuanced understanding of when being brutally forceful is not just appropriate but imperative.

Hypothyroid patients classically have low ferritin and other low iron levels - just another negative side effect of undiagnosed, untreated, or mistreated hypothyroidism. Iron provides life-affirming oxygen to organ systems through its role in red cell production.
Iron is an essential protein component for metabolism (low iron levels often go hand in hand with low B12 results). Without adequate iron, muscles lose their tone and elasticity. Low iron can compromise brain function: oxygen supply in the blood is assisted by iron, and the brain uses approximately 20% of the blood oxygen. Proper flow of blood in the brain stimulates cognitive activity.
