Episode 14: THE BUZZ with DR. B & BEN - Plot Twist: Did YOU Know Movie Night Has Its Own Day?!

Episode 14: THE BUZZ with DR. B & BEN - Plot Twist: Did YOU Know Movie Night Has Its Own Day?! Did You Know Movie Night Has Its Own National Day? We didn’t either - until now! And honestly? We are completely here for it. 🍿 National Movie Night is observed every year on the second Friday in June - falling on June 12, 2026 this year. It was founded in 2022 by Jennifer and Jayda Borget, the mother-daughter duo behind the Family Movie Night Journal, with a beautiful and simple mission: to bring people back to the tradition of watching movies intentionally - together - with the people who matter most. No scrolling. No half-watching. No phones. Just you, your people, and a great story unfolding on the screen. Ways to observe National Movie Night: * Host a movie night at home with family, friends, or your significant other 🎬 * Set up a backyard screen and watch under the stars ✨ * Head to a drive-in theater for a classic experience📽️ * Create a buffet of your all-time favorite movie snacks 🍿 * Have everyone share their personal top 5 movies …you might be surprised what you learn! 🎞️ * Put the phones down and be fully, intentionally present📱   Movies, Moments & Flourishing 🐝 At Flourish With Dr. B, we talk a lot about intentional living …about showing up fully for your life and the people in it. And flourishing isn’t only found in morning routines or milestone moments. Sometimes it’s found in two hours on the couch, side by side with someone you love, letting a great story move you. Movies have a remarkable power to: * Transport us out of stress and into story - giving our minds and bodies a chance to rest and reset * Connect us to the people beside us in a way that everyday life sometimes doesn’t * Awaken emotions we’ve tucked away - giving us permission to laugh, cry, feel, and release * Reflect our deepest values - courage, love, sacrifice, redemption, resilience * Create shared language and memories that become the fabric of a relationship In this episode, Dr. B and Ben model what intentional togetherness actually looks like - sharing the films that have shaped them, moved them, and stayed with them across decades of life, love, and everything in between. That is flourishing. That is Real People. Real Talk. Real Inspo. 🐝🦋 About This Episode 🎬 In this special episode, Dr. B and her husband Ben each reveal their personal Top Movies of All Time — and the stories behind why these films have never left them. They also share their joint couples’ favorites: the ones that belong to both of them, the ones that made them laugh until it hurt, cry happy tears, and hold hands a little tighter. From timeless classics to unexpected picks …their lists might just surprise you. Can You Guess ❓ ❓ ❓ Before you press play - take a guess! * 🍿 Can you guess Dr. B’s #1 movie of all time? * 🍿 How about Ben’s #1? * 🍿 What film do you think tops their couples’ list — the one they both agree on? * 🍿 And what are YOUR top movies?

Episode 13: IN THE HIVE with Coach Nick Papadopoulos & The Men's Group

Episode 13: IN THE HIVE with Coach Nick Papadopoulos & The Men's Group In this episode, Ben sits down with Nicholaos "Coach Nick" Papadopoulos, executive coach, men's group facilitator, and co-author of the brand new book, The Men's Group. Nick is the perfect guest to help us launch our June Dads & Grads month here at the Flourish With Dr. B Podcast - because at the heart of every great man is a very important question: who showed up for me, and who am I showing up for? Coach Nick opens up about the challenges men face in today's times, especially when it comes to mental health - a conversation every dad, grad, mentor, and man in your life needs to hear. But let's not get it twisted, this episode is just as important for women as it is for men... in fact, Nick and Ben discuss insights that may be eye-opening for those women trying to understand how and why the men in their lives operate the way they do - and perhaps even how to emotionally connect more deeply with them as well. Nicholaos "Coach Nick" Papadopoulos is an author, speaker, executive coach, and men's group facilitator based in New York City. For over 14 years, he has led men's groups and leadership programs designed to help men disrupt their blind spots, live purposefully, and transform the world around them. He is the co-author of The Men's Group and a board member of the HEART school in Haiti. His men's communities have raised nearly $200,000 for local and international organizations since 2016. Look forward to seeing you for this one In The Hive!

In this warm wrap-up episode of The Buzz, Dr. B and Ben reflect on the season and send it off with something truly special. Dr. B opens her heart - and the pages of her book, Mom, I Wanna Be A Fighter! An Eye-Opening Guide to the Speed Bumps, Gut Punches & Miracles of Life - to share some of her most personal and hard-won wisdom on one of the least-talked-about chapters of motherhood: parenting your adult child. Because the job doesn’t end when they turn 18. It just changes. And learning to love them from a new posture (with open hands instead of a tight grip)might be the most courageous thing a mother ever does. Then Ben steps in with an exciting sneak peek of what’s ahead in June… and let’s just say the Flourish Family has a LOT to celebrate.  June is Dads & Grads Month and we are showing UP for it! Whether you’re a mom in the thick of it, a grown child reflecting on your own journey, or someone who was shaped by a woman who never gave up on you - this one is for you.

Episode 11: IN THE HIVE with Amy Polacko of the Freedom Warrior Tribe - Girl, Wake Up!

Episode 11: IN THE HIVE with Amy Polacko of the Freedom Warrior Tribe - Girl, Wake Up! What does it truly mean to reclaim your power? In this episode installment of our May She Flourish Month series dedicated to Mothers and Nurturers, Dr. B sits down with her dear friend of nearly 20 years, Amy Polacko - journalist, entrepreneur, author, speaker, podcaster, devoted mom, coach, and the powerhouse behind the Freedom Warrior Tribe. Amy’s journey is one of radical self-discovery, hard-won wisdom, and unshakeable resilience. As a two-time divorcee who has walked through the fire of toxic and narcissistic relationships, Amy transformed her pain into purpose. Today she coaches women to protect their rights, trust their instincts, and rise unapologetically into their own power - not just through divorce, but through every season of life that tries to dim their light. Whether you are navigating a difficult relationship, rebuilding after loss, questioning your worth, or simply ready to stop playing small - this conversation is for YOU. Amy’s message is clear: You were born for more, and it is never too late to wake up to that truth. In this episode Dr. B and Amy explore: * How Amy’s personal story shaped her mission to empower women * The subtle signs of manipulation that women often overlook * Why knowing your rights is an act of self-love * How to nurture yourself even when life feels overwhelming * The Freedom Warrior mindset - and how ANY woman can access it * What it really means to flourish on YOUR own terms Amy is also the host of the Girl, Wake Up! podcast and author of FRAMED, and has been featured in HuffPost, Ms. Magazine, and NBC. She offers free consultations for women who are ready to take their power back. 🔗 Connect with Amy: 🌲linktr.ee/freedomwarrior 📱 Instagram: @freedomwarriortribe 💻 Website: Freedomwarrior.info 🦋 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theflourishwithdrbpodcast?igsh=cDY0M3JzeXczNzR5&utm_source=qr Dr. B’s website: http://www.flourishwithdrb.com/ Dr. B’s Speaker and Coaching Inquiry Form: https://drbintakeform4.tiiny.site/ Dr. B’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/belinda-basaca-zeitlin-ms-md-65438190 Ben’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-zeitlin-2469003 YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/@flourishwithdr.b5866?si=O2CyTQUwfTDKxyZS Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5YMBIeWVVb3n79DPU2IMh2 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-flourish-with-dr-b-podcast/id1893343591

Episode 10: THE BUZZ WITH Dr. B - Menopause 101: The Basics of the Big M

Episode 10: THE BUZZ WITH Dr. B - Menopause 101: The Basics of the Big M As we continue on our MAY SHE FLOURISH Series - A Special Month for Mothers & Nurturers… Last week, Dr. B and her medical school classmate and dear friend Dr. Tati went deep - candid, unfiltered, and full of real talk in “Your Mom Is HOT!” And somewhere in all that fire, they never actually defined what we were talking about. 😅 Consider this your make-good. In this quick but mighty solo episode, Dr. B puts on her physician’s hat and breaks down the basics of menopause and perimenopause - what’s actually happening in your body, what’s normal, what’s not, and why this transition deserves way more honest conversation than it gets. No jargon. No fear. Just the facts delivered the way only Dr. B can - with warmth, clarity, zero judgment and a bit of humor! Whether you’re in the thick of it, approaching it, or love someone who is - this is the foundation you need before diving deeper. Think of it as the primer that should have come first. 🦋 Also don’t forget about Dr. Tati’s complimentary webinar Brain on Fire: What Perimenopause is Really Doing to Your Mind. 🔥🧠 on Tuesday, May 19th: Register here by clicking the link: https://pestanawellness.com/menopause-webinar Here’s Dr. Tati’s website Wellness Services | Pestana Comprehensive Wellness Instagram @pestana_wellness LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/tatiana-a-pestana-md-mph-ccms-ifmcp-05661483?utm_source=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=member_ios Real People.
