In this episode of the Awake & Winning Podcast, Kaylor Betts sits down with Tim Kennedy for a raw, high-voltage conversation about power, propaganda, personal sovereignty, and what it actually means to lead when the heat gets turned up. Tim—entrepreneur, former Special Forces operator, and founder behind Apogee Strong—breaks down who "they" really are, why transparency matters more than institutions, and how fear-based narratives hijack nations.

They go deep on COVID-era coercion, media manipulation, and why awareness without action creates "over-awake, under-achievers." Tim also shares how he prioritizes God, family, and mission, and what discipline looks like when you're being publicly attacked. This one is a call-out and a call-up: stop doom-scrolling, start building strength—inside your home, your body, and your community.

Episode Highlights: government transparency, "who are they" elites, decentralized power networks, USAID corruption claims, media fear campaigns, DOGE-style audits, COVID coercion and compliance, vaccine shedding discussion, personal sovereignty skills, family-first leadership, handling public criticism, discipline as masculinity

Takeaways:

• Transparency is the fastest path to rebuilding public trust
• Awareness without action turns into paralysis
• Real sovereignty looks like skills, health, and preparedness
• Family leadership comes before politics and platforms
• Discipline beats motivation every time
• Criticism is often the cost of doing meaningful work
• Build your circle: know who's with you in the trenches

In this repost episode of the Awake & Winning Podcast, Kaylor revisits a conversation with Tiffany Parotto and Dan McDyer, MD that blew up online—and then seemed to disappear overnight. Tiffany shares how a viral wave of women reporting sudden cycle changes pushed her to build MyCycleStory, aiming to turn personal experiences into publishable research. Dr. McDyer describes what he says he observed in clinical practice, why he believes many professionals won't publicly question the dominant narrative, and how fear and identity can shut down real curiosity. Together, they unpack censorship, the social cost of dissent, and what they believe the path forward looks like: staying grounded, building resilience, and learning how to talk to people without triggering a shutdown. Tiffany Parotto is a longtime vaccine-risk-awareness advocate and founder of MyCycleStory, and Dr. Dan McDyer is an OB-GYN who partnered with her to investigate these claims through research.

Disclaimer: (This conversation reflects the guests' views and is not medical advice.)

Episode Highlights: censorship and deleted communities, viral cycle conversations, MyCycleStory research mission, doctors and cognitive dissonance, fear and social pressure, identity and ego in public health debates, peer review roadblocks, "shedding" discussion, metabolic health and resilience, communicating with compassion, MAHA/RFK optimism, predictions about future fear campaigns

Takeaways:

• Viral stories can disappear fast when platforms enforce narrative boundaries
• Fear and social belonging pressures can override curiosity even in professionals
• People change their minds faster when they feel heard instead of attacked
• Building personal resilience matters regardless of what you believe about the claims
• If you want conversations to land, stay calm, empathetic, and specific
• Decentralized media and independent research groups will keep growing
• The next "crisis" will likely use the same playbook: urgency, fear, and compliance
