The Measuring Post Transistor (https://transistor.fm) https://feeds.transistor.fm/the-measuring-post-0c97eb3f-1193-4edd-9007-4bf80f195ed8 The Measuring Post is a podcast about growth, not perfection. It’s a place to pause, reflect, and measure what actually matters in your life, your work, and your personal development. Not by comparing yourself to others, but by comparing who you are today to who you were yesterday. I'm Joe Massa, and I created this show because I believe growth isn't a solo journey. Each week, you’ll hear thoughtful interviews with incredible guests: entrepreneurs, leaders, creatives, and everyday people doing meaningful work, sharing real experiences, lessons learned, and practical insights you can apply right away. These conversations are designed to help you think differently, grow intentionally, and move forward with clarity. Alongside the interviews, you’ll also find The Daily Measure, short, bite-sized solo episodes focused on simple words of wisdom and actionable ideas you can use in your daily life. Think of these as quick check-ins to help you stay grounded, focused, and consistent. This isn’t about hype or shortcuts. It’s about honest conversations, small improvements, and growing together over time. If you’re someone who values progress, reflection, and becoming a better version of yourself, you’re in the right place.

After pivoting his practice to focus exclusively on seniors during COVID, he developed a contrarian philosophy: forget the famous 4% rule and chasing a magic dollar amount. The only number that matters is your income gap, the difference between your guaranteed monthly income (Social Security, pension) and what you actually need to live on. 

Joe and Ben covered why annuities have been unfairly demonized (Social Security is technically the most common annuity in America), how to properly structure indexed universal life insurance as "the rich man's Roth," why 95% of advisors don't know how to set these products up correctly, and the brutal math of why putting away less than 10% of your income mathematically guarantees you won't retire well.

After losing her father as a young girl, losing 70% of her hearing at age five, and enduring years of abuse from her stepfather, Trish built a life defined by resilience, not victimhood. She went on to fulfill her childhood dream of working in the entertainment industry as a beauty consultant before a violent encounter with her fiance became the catalyst for founding Safe Passage Heals, a nonprofit that connects domestic violence survivors with pro bono plastic surgeons, dentists, and doctors to repair the physical scars of abuse. Recognized by Presidents Obama and Trump and featured on CBS, Fox, and The Doctors, Trish later launched Women of Steel alongside her daughters Shawna and Michelle, a mentorship movement built on three pillars: strong, spiritual, and sensational. Now in her seventies, she runs women's retreats across California and coaches women through what she calls "mindset renewal," proving there's no expiration date on reinvention.

With over four decades of experience in medicine, education, and patient advocacy, Dr. Donadio makes a compelling case for why education—not fear—is the foundation of long-term wellness.

The conversation goes far beyond diet and exercise. Dr. Donadio explains why medical error is now one of the leading causes of death in the United States and why self-advocacy is no longer optional. Together, they unpack the concept of “whole health,” examining how physical health, environment, nutrition, psychology, relationships, and spirituality all work together to shape outcomes.


Listeners will learn why people often spend more time researching a car purchase than their medical care, how misdiagnosis and poor communication happen inside modern healthcare systems, and what practical steps anyone can take to reduce risk and make better decisions. The episode also highlights the often-overlooked connection between stress, communication, relationships, and physical illness.

This is a must-listen for anyone who wants to be proactive about their health, support loved ones more effectively, and avoid becoming a statistic in an overwhelmed healthcare system. 

Key Topics Covered:

  • What “whole health” really means and why it’s not a one-size-fits-all approach

  • Why medical error is a leading cause of death—and what drives it

  • How to advocate for yourself (and your family) inside the healthcare system

  • The role of environment, stress, and unresolved trauma in physical illness

  • Why relationships and communication directly affect long-term health

  • Practical exercises to identify hidden health stressors in daily life

  • How education changes outcomes more than fear ever could
