Beverly Hills California, July 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bestselling author and performance coach David Nurse joined Health is a Skill host Todd Vande Hei for a dynamic conversation on mindset, epigenetics, and achieving high performance through intentional living and spiritual alignment. The episode offers a deep dive into what drives lasting change—and how flow state may be the key. Nurse, known for his work with NBA players and Fortune 500 executives, broke down the 'flow code formula,' a structured process designed to help individuals access states of heightened focus and effortlessness. He emphasized that flow, often thought of as rare or random, can be trained through a repeatable sequence of visualization, breathwork, somatic activation, and spiritual connection.

The two also explored the concept of epigenetics—how environment and belief influence gene expression—and discussed the formative role that childhood experiences, coaching, and self-image play in shaping one's future potential. Drawing from examples like Steph Curry and Steven Spielberg, Nurse outlined a 'greatness formula' involving natural attributes, exposure, mentorship, and insatiable drive. Vande Hei shared personal stories from his own family and company, Stark, emphasizing how belief in one's ability to evolve is a crucial ingredient in long-term health and success. He noted that many people self-sabotage because they don't truly believe transformation is possible, a point Nurse echoed. 'If you don't know who you want to be, you won't become that person,' said Nurse. 'You need to act from a vision of the future you, not the past.' The episode also covered: The role of psychedelics and ketamine-assisted therapy in facilitating ego detachment and behavior change The connection between prayer, stress reduction, and long-term physical health How spirituality influences resilience and mental clarity Resetting mindset through visualization, bilateral tapping, and cross-lateral movement How purpose-driven action sustains motivation over time The conversation concluded with reflections on why trauma often reconnects people to higher purpose and why prayer, gratitude, and release of control can enhance not just emotional well-being, but cellular health.

N.S. names new information and privacy commissioner
Nova Scotia's new information and privacy commissioner is a lawyer who has worked in private practice and for the Nova Scotia and Northwest Territories governments. David Nurse's appointment was announced Monday. He takes over from Tricia Ralph, whose five-year term wrapped up at the end of February. According to a news release from the Justice Department, Nurse worked as a lawyer for the Nova Scotia Department of Justice and the province's Office of Immigration. He also owned and operated a law firm, was a lawyer with the Northwest Territories government in addition to working for the Halifax law firm McInnes Cooper in the past. In a statement, Nurse said "protecting Nova Scotians' right to know and balancing that with their right to privacy is an important responsibility and one that I do not take lightly. "I look forward to serving Nova Scotians in this capacity and to working collaboratively to strengthen transparency and trust in our public institutions." work that appears to be taking longer than expected. It also comes on the heels of concerns from his predecessor about the state of the system and that recent government legislation would have given department officials the power to reject access to information requests if they decided they were vexatious, frivolous or lacking in specificity. In the face of those concerns and public criticism, the Progressive Conservative government amended the legislation to remove the specificity requirement and require department officials to apply to the privacy commissioner for approval before being able to reject an access to information application.
