By Radley West When GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy first hit the market, I’ll be honest—I was skeptical. As a health and fitness professional with over 16 years of experience helping people build stronger, healthier lives, I’ve seen plenty of so-called “miracle” weight loss solutions come and go. Most overpromise, underdeliver, and leave people discouraged. At first glance, GLP-1s felt like just another shortcut....

By Jennifer Tardy Even the most perfect nutrition plan can fall flat if your body is stuck in fight-or-flight mode. When you’re constantly in survival mode, your body doesn’t prioritize healing—it holds on to fat, suppresses digestion, and throws hormones out of balance. That’s why nervous system regulation is a key part of my holistic health programs. When we help the body feel safe, true healing becomes possible....

By Thomas Grant Jr. There was something more intimidating to Irmo head coach Aaron Brand last Friday than visiting rival Lexington — the dreaded bye week. Despite Irmo’s dominant 35-0 win over the Wildcats in the annual Battle of the Dam, Brand wasn’t celebrating the break that lies ahead. “The in-season byes just destroy me,” Brand said after the game....

By Thomas Grant Jr. Dutch Fork head coach Tom Knotts doesn’t forget. Friday’s road trip to White Knoll (5-1, 1-0) is more than just another region matchup — it’s a return to the site of Dutch Fork’s last Region 4-5A loss, a 17-14 setback on Oct. 6, 2023. Even after back-to-back wins over the Timberwolves since then, including one in the…...

By Sarah Ostergaard In today’s world, a single click can cost a teacher their career. Even off the clock, in their own homes, on their personal devices, teachers live under a microscope where one “like” or comment on social media can be judged as unprofessional, disruptive, or fireable. What could go wrong in sharing a meme, posting a statement of celebration or disappointment over election results, or writing a comment on a friend’s page about how much you enjoyed a book with a LGBTQ protagonist?...
