    Compromise: The SILENT Destroyer of Relationships and Health

    What people see now isn't where we started. Before Prime Family Centers was successful… we were six months from bankruptcy. In Episode 360 of The Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss share the raw, unfiltered story of what almost broke them in the early days of practice. From barely making rent to having their office broken into and their last $200 stolen, this episode dives into the pivotal moment that shaped their "No Compromise" mindset. Dr. Skip opens up about the hard conversation with their landlord that changed his perspective on commitment and responsibility. What felt harsh in the moment became one of the greatest lessons in ownership, leadership, and integrity. Together, they unpack why compromise in business, marriage, health, and standards slowly erodes momentum — and how deciding to never compromise again transformed everything. This is the behind-the-scenes story most people never hear. In This Episode You Will Learn: The Early Struggle: What it really looked like starting a practice from zero. The Breaking Point: The robbery that tested their resolve. Ownership & Commitment: The hard truth their landlord told them that changed everything. The No Compromise Standard: Why lowering expectations quietly destroys growth. Leadership Under Pressure: How adversity forges clarity in business and family life.

    Why We Specialize In Pregnancy and Pediatric Chiropractic | Ep. 359

    Why We Specialize In Pregnancy and Pediatric Chiropractic | Ep. 359 Episode Description: Why do we choose to focus on pregnancy and pediatrics instead of general back pain? The answer is simple: It is easier to raise healthy kids than to fix broken adults. In Episode 359 of The Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss explain exactly why they shifted their practice to focus on the beginning of life. They discuss the pivotal moment when a mentor changed their perspective on healthcare and why they believe so strongly in the body's inborn ability to heal. Dr. Julie shares her deep passion for pregnancy care, explaining why she fights to keep unnecessary medical interventions away from moms so they can have the birth experience they deserve. They also clear up the confusion between chiropractic and other therapies, discussing why true health isn't about adding more treatments but removing interference from the nervous system. In This Episode You Will Learn: The Pediatric Shift: Why focusing on children prevents decades of bad health habits. Chiropractic vs. Therapy: The difference between a specific adjustment and general therapies like massage. Pregnancy Empowerment: How to trust your body's design for birth and avoid the medical fear-mongering. The Ozempic Mindset: Why quick fixes and drugs never replace actual neurological health habits. Parenting Expectations: How to navigate the gap between what a doctor recommends and what a parent values.

From meeting in a college biology class to launching a practice during the 2008 recession with zero money, their journey was filled with obstacles.

    Why You Should Not Ignore Numbness (Hands, Feet and Face) | Ep. 357

    Numbness is not just your limb falling asleep; it is a warning sign from your nervous system that communication has been cut off. In Episode 357 of The Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss break down one of the most common yet ignored symptoms in healthcare: Numbness. Whether it is tingling in your hands at night, facial paralysis scares, or the burning sensation of sciatica, these are red flags of nerve compression. We discuss why masking these symptoms with cortisone shots or anti-inflammatories often leads to further injury and why athletes would rather feel pain than nothing at all. Dr. Skip explains the anatomy of the neck and lower back to show exactly where the "kink in the hose" occurs and why treating the wrist for hand numbness often misses the root cause in the spine. In This Episode You Will Learn: Facial Numbness: How to distinguish between a stroke, Bell's Palsy, and an upper cervical subluxation. The Cortisone Trap: Why injections only reduce inflammation temporarily but do not fix the mechanical pressure on the nerve. Hand Numbness: Why tingling hands at night is often a neck alignment issue (C4-T1), not just a mattress problem. Sciatica and Foot Drop: The specific signs of disc herniation and when you need to seek immediate medical attention. Raynauds Phenomenon: Why cold, white fingers are actually a nervous system regulation issue. Pain vs. Numbness: Why pain is a helpful communicator and numbness is dangerous for injury prevention. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro and Dr. Julie's Socks 01:15 Why Medical Treatments for Numbness Often Fail 03:20 Facial Numbness: Stroke vs. Bell's Palsy vs. Subluxation 07:45 Hand Numbness and the Neck Connection 13:45 Anatomy of Arm Numbness 15:00 Raynauds Phenomenon Explained 17:45 Sciatica and Leg Numbness 19:00 The Dangers of Foot Drop 21:30 Why Numbness is Worse Than Pain Struggling with sciatica or chronic numbness?

    Your Habits Are NOT Mental (Why Willpower Fails) | Ep. 356

    Do you believe it takes 21 days to break a habit? Neurologically, that is a myth. In Episode 356 of The Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss explain why you cannot simply "think" your way out of chronic stress, anxiety, or poor posture. While most people try to use mental willpower to change their lives, true habits are neurological, not just mental. If your nervous system is stuck in a survival pattern (fight or flight), no amount of positive thinking will override that biological programming. We dive deep into how these patterns start—often as early as birth or in the womb—and discuss the impact of retained primitive reflexes like the Moro Reflex. Dr. Skip explains why "survival mode" prevents brain growth and how physical intervention (chiropractic care) is often the missing link to resetting the body's communication system. In This Episode, You Will Learn: The 21-Day Myth: Why neurological reprogramming takes years, not weeks. Mental vs. Neurological: Why willpower fails when your body is physically stuck in survival mode. Visual Diagnostics: How to spot nerve interference in your kids (asymmetry, acne spots, posture). The Moro Reflex: Why an infant startle reflex can cause anxiety in adults if not integrated. The Marathon Trap: Why extreme endurance exercise might be keeping you in a stress state. Pregnancy & Pediatrics: Why early checks are essential for developmental milestones. Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro: Mental Habits vs. Neurological Habits 01:15 - Why "21 Days to Break a Habit" is a Myth 04:40 - The "Mirror Test": Spotting Asymmetry & Nerve Interference 07:50 - Why Willpower Fails: Tony Robbins vs. Your Nervous System 09:00 - The Danger of Living in "Survival Mode" 12:30 - Retained Primitive Reflexes (Moro Reflex) 18:00 - Is Exercise Hurting You?

    Why Millionaires Are Jealous of YOU: The Truth About Time vs. Money | Ep. 355

    Why Millionaires Are Jealous of YOU: The Truth About Time vs. Money | Ep. 355 Do you feel guilty when you aren't "busy"? You might be chasing a version of success that even millionaires regret. In Episode 355 of the Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies return from an unplanned break to discuss a powerful realization: Time is the only currency you can't earn back. After a trip to Nevada and a conversation with a retired mentor, Dr. Skip reveals a shocking truth—wealthy influencers with millions of dollars are actually jealous of you. Why? Because while they have money, they often lack control over their own calendars. We dive deep into the addiction to "busyness," why working a second job for an extra $50 might be costing you your family, and how to reclaim your freedom. In This Episode, You Will Learn: The "Busyness" Trap: Why we feel guilty when we rest and how to break the addiction to constant productivity. The Millionaire Paradox: Why the wealthy are often chasing "time freedom" while the middle class chases money. Health & Immunity: Why getting sick is actually a necessary "workout" for your nervous system. Fix Your Sundays: How to stop the "Sunday Scaries" and use the weekend to actually recharge. God's Wake-Up Call: How negative reinforcement (loss, sickness, stress) forces us to pay attention to what actually matters. Connection > Cost: Why a $1.50 hot dog trip to Costco with your teen can be more valuable than a luxury vacation.

    The "No Resolution" New Year: Why Waiting for January 1st is a Trap | Ep. 354

    The "No Resolution" New Year: Why Waiting for January 1st is a Trap | Ep. 354 Why do we wait for a specific date on the calendar to change our lives? In Episode 354 of the Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies challenge the traditional concept of New Year's Resolutions. With statistics showing most resolutions fail within three weeks, we discuss a better approach: The "No Resolution" New Year. We dive deep into the psychology of procrastination and why waiting for January 1st is actually a lack of confidence. Instead of a "clean slate" once a year, we talk about changing your attitude in seconds and controlling the "controllables" (what you eat, what you think, and who you hang out with). This episode focuses heavily on the "Rule of 5"—the idea that you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with. If your circle is full of "Crabs in a Bucket" (people who pull you down when you try to climb out), 2026 will look exactly like 2025. It's time to audit your circle, ignore the haters who only show up when you succeed, and make the decision to change today. In This Episode, You Will Learn: The 3-Week Trap: Why 90% of New Year's resolutions are dead by January 21st. Control Your Controllables: You can't control the President or the weather, but you can control your sugar intake and your words. The Rule of 5 Audit: How your 5 closest friends determine your income, health, and attitude. Crabs in a Bucket: Why you have 50 cheerleaders when you are failing, but haters when you succeed. Indecision is a Decision: Why doing nothing is actually letting the world choose your life for you. Dr. Julie's Advice: Why "Done is better than Perfect" and taking the leap of faith. Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro: A New Year without resolutions 01:20 - Why we prolong the inevitable by waiting for Jan 1 04:00 - The Rule of 5: Auditing your social circle 08:00 - The "Crabs in a Bucket" mentality (Dealing with jealousy) 10:00 - Why "haters" are actually a sign of progress 13:00 - Final words of wisdom for 2026 Struggling with the New Year transition?

    Connection Without the Cost: Saving Your Marriage (and Wallet) from Holiday Stress | Ep. 353

    Connection Without the Cost: Saving Your Marriage (and Wallet) from Holiday Stress | Ep. 353 Does the holiday season feel like you're looking at a fancy restaurant menu where everything has "$$$$" next to it? You aren't alone. In Episode 353 of the Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies tackle the "Financial Hangover" that ruins January for so many couples. We discuss why consumerism often masquerades as connection and how mismatched expectations (and credit card bills) create deep resentment that explodes once the decorations come down. We dive deep into Love Languages—what happens when one spouse loves giving gifts but the other hates clutter? We also share the "Wrap It Yourself" hack that saves husbands from panic-buying blenders, and why saying "Maybe" is the most dangerous thing you can do in a relationship. On a serious note, we discuss why divorce filings spike in January. It isn't just about the money; it's about the lack of genuine, unplugged time. Tune in for practical, low-cost ways to date your spouse again—from bringing back the "Coupon Book" to conducting "Hallmark Movie Research" on the couch. In This Episode, You Will Learn: The "$$$$" Holiday Trap: How to stop the cycle of spending money you don't have to impress people who don't care. Love Language Clashes: Navigating the friction between a partner who loves "Gifting" and one who prefers "Acts of Service." The "Maybe" Red Flag: Why clear communication ("Yes, I want this" or "No, let's save money") saves marriages. The Divorce Spike: Why lack of face-to-face time is the root cause of recent separations in our circle. Dr. Skip's Best Gift: The story of the signed Bo Jackson bat and thoughtful gifting. Connection > Cost: Nostalgic, $0 date ideas like the Affirmation Jar and Ramen Noodle nights. Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro: The pressure of the "Four Dollar Sign" Holiday 02:10 - When Love Languages collide (Gifts vs. Practicality) 06:00 - The January Bill: Preventing financial resentment 08:00 - The "Wrap It Yourself" Strategy 11:30 - The Truth About January Divorces (The Time Factor) 13:00 - Bringing back the Coupon Book & low-cost dates 16:00 - Setting a HARD budget (and sticking to it) Struggling with stress?
