I was performing surgery in NYC when our nation was attacked on September 11, 25 years ago. The world had changed by the time we finished. In our darkest hour, love of country and love for one another carried us through. May we never forget. instagram.com/reel/DdJ2bBUoi…

Today marks one year since the assassination of my friend Charlie Kirk. Last night, I was honored to sit with Erika in the President’s box and to thank her personally for the sacrifices she and her family have endured. Her devotion to Charlie’s legacy is a testament to the life he lived and the people he touched. Lisa and I remain grateful that Charlie was part of our lives and pray for Erika’s continued strength.

I adored my friend Dolly Parton for her massive heart. The world knew her extraordinary voice, her wit, her sparkle and her unmistakable presence. But I was blessed to see another side of Dolly—the woman behind the cameras, when there was no audience and nothing to gain except the chance to bring someone else a little hope. We toured pediatric cancer facilities together, and I will never forget watching the children light up when Dolly walked into the room. She brought her bright light into some of the darkest moments a family can endure. But she didn’t just visit. She stayed. She patiently sat with children struggling with cancer. She listened to them, laughed with them, held their hands and somehow gave them a little more energy and courage to fight the battles ahead. That was Dolly. Her greatest gift wasn’t the music. It was her heart. She was an angel on earth, and I know she is still an angel today.

Lisa and I had a blast at the Freedom 250 Grand Prix in Washington, D.C. These Indy-style cars are remarkable—but the drivers are even more impressive. These are serious athletes with the strength, stamina, and focus needed to control that much power at those speeds. Congratulations to POTUS and Secretary Duffy for celebrating America’s 250th birthday the way a milestone this big deserves: big, bold, festive—and with plenty of horsepower. America at 250 is still firing on all cylinders.

Oklahoma’s premier softball team, @OU_Softball, knows a thing or two about winning — and their key to success? Accountability and culture. Watch as they give @RepBice and me a few valuable life lessons that apply well beyond the softball field.

Want to give your walnuts the cold plunge? Try soaking them in ice water. No, they don’t suddenly sprout tiny walnut trees in your kitchen. But something interesting DOES happen: The nut takes up water while some water-soluble compounds move out into the soaking water, changing its texture—and reducing its bitterness and astringency. The result is a softer, fresh, clean crunch. A good rinse can also wash away some of what’s sitting on the surface—and many people find the result less bitter and more delicious. And remember: the real nutritional superstar was there BEFORE the ice bath. Walnuts bring healthy unsaturated fats, plant-based omega-3 ALA, and other nutrients to the table. instagram.com/p/Db9NVq4CdGw/…

Good news, regular coffee consumption is associated with many health benefits! My favorite is espresso, what's yours? instagram.com/reel/DbrPo3lJQ…

Thanks to Mark Ein, I spent time at the DC Open with two incredible participants, Venus Williams and Frances Tiafoe, who remind us that greatness isn't just built on talent—it's built on the daily habits that keep your body and mind strong. Venus was a great guest on my former TV show where she opened up about her struggles with the autoimmune condition, sjogrens syndrome. She continues to amaze, competing against athletes nearly a generation younger and proving that smart training can keep you in the game. Frances values disciplined nutrition (eggs for breakfast and protein shakes after a match), and a commitment to staying limber. Champions are made one healthy decision at a time.

Your liver called—it wants more veggies... and maybe another cup of coffee. instagram.com/reel/DbWficapH…

VP JD and Second Lady Usha Vance — we have all heard your passionate plea for more babies. Thanks for leading by example and bringing another beautiful life into the world. Congrats on Alec's arrival. Lisa and I wish your growing family a lifetime of health and joy.

Mark Twain understood a reality that outlasts every era’s noise: that laughter is the most honest form of truth-telling we have. Humor happens to have great health benefits as well - triggering release of feel-good endorphins, lowering stress hormones, and strengthening our bonds to others. Twain built a career out of puncturing pretension while keeping audiences laughing too hard to notice how sharp the point really was. Lisa and I enjoyed the Kennedy Center Awards built around his name, which will start streaming today on @netflix. My favorite of Twain’s many pearls of wisdom remains, “The secret to getting ahead is getting started.” Would love to know yours.

My friend Senator Graham reportedly died from an aortic dissection, which I focused on as a heart surgeon. This catastrophic condition kills most victims within 48 hours and is best prevented by managing your blood pressure.

Sunday at the farmers market! Peaches picked at their peak offer vitamin C to support your immune system, fiber to keep your digestive system on track, and antioxidants to combat everyday oxidative stress. Here's the real secret: eating produce in season often means it's fresher, more flavorful, and packed with the nutrients. My favorite prescription? Slice a juicy peach over Greek yogurt, enjoy!
