    S-2- Episode 106- My Conversation With Wendy Schofer When It Comes to relationships with Food, and Body Weight.

    In this episode, I spoke to Wendy Schofer about children who are struggling with weight gain and building relationships with food without feeling ashamed of what they eat. We talked about processed foods, the chemicals that are in our foods that are causing stomach issues that may cause weight gain. We talked about how she has helped families who have children who suffer from being overweight. We talked about the differences between the generations when it comes to being more active, as far as baby boomers, Genx, and the millennials compared to Gen Z. We talked about the different diets, shots, and exercises that will help people with weight loss. We talked about stress, cortisol, bacteria, parasites, fibroids, hernias, and stomach damage, and how they affect weight gain. We spoke about the trust between the mind and the body when it comes to the pain and suffering that each one goes through. We spoke about eating disorders, eating addictions, shame, bullying, and societal standards when it comes to weight gain. We spoke about the social-emotional skill-building for families of all ages (and sizes!) and honestly how it's helping families create changes that are squarely based in eating disorder prevention. The part that surprises people: we work on healing parental stress (hello, burnout!) and breaking generational cycles of shame and restriction before we get anywhere near a child's plate. And about all things family nutrition, growth, obesity, eating disorders (especially preventing them), psychology of family habit change, emotional eating, social-emotional skills applied to family dynamics and health, and my personal favorite, parenting & feeding children with neurodiverse family members. A little about Wendy: she is a pediatrician who focuses on eating disorder prevention with entire families, size-inclusive, all ages, and all bodies. I weave learning and tease apart generational messages about food and body. And families think it's coping skills, social-emotional play, and healing the parent's relationship with food and body so they don't repeat the shame they grew up with. pediatrician who focuses on eating disorder prevention with entire families, size-inclusive, all ages and all bodies; she has woven learning and teased apart generational messages about food and body.

    Season 2- Episode 105- My Conversation with Hana Khan about Myofunctional Therapy.

    In this episode, I spoke with Hana Khan about myofunctional therapy and how our breathing affects our internal health and wellness. I talked about why our mouths hold clues to deeper chaos: mouth breathing, shattered sleep, jaw tension, the constant fatigue that no meditation seems to touch. What is myofunctional therapy is not paid for by insurance companies. What if the inside is oxygen-starved? What if crowded teeth and snoring aren't cosmetic annoyances but signals that the airway is stealing rest, regulation, and presence? How she built her work around root-cause assessments and explaining every "why" because she believes patients deserve peace of mind, not guessing? How sleep impacts your breathing and sleep? We also talked about American healthcare, and issues and flaws as far as patients' treatments, and what is covered. A little about Hana: she is an Airway Dentist who looks beyond teeth alone. As an airway-focused dentist and orofacial myologist, Dr. Khan helps patients understand how tongue posture, nasal breathing, jaw development, oral habits, sleep quality, and dental alignment are connected. She has uncovered the root causes behind mouth breathing, snoring, crowded teeth, jaw development issues, poor sleep, and airway-related health concerns. She has also helped children who have struggled with mouth breathing, snoring, restless sleep, fatigue, crowded teeth, a narrow palate, tongue-tie concerns, or recurring orthodontic issues; the real question may be why this is happening. I hope that you learn from this episode about breathing. It was a great conversation. If you want to reach Hana about myofunctional therapy, you can check out her website at drhanakhan.com.

    S-2 Episode 21- My Conversation with Tom Mitchell about Functional Treatment and American Health Care.

    In this episode, I had a conversation with Tom Mitchell about functional treatment and American healthcare. We talked about American healthcare when it comes to functional treatment. What is functional treatment, and proper care when it comes to patient care? We discussed US healthcare and issues that we, as patients and providers, face when it comes to the disconnect in patient care. We talked about programming the body to match the mind, and how resilience gets built before you need it. We discussed how people show up with pain, weight they can't shake, or fatigue that won't quit, and the real work is syncing the physical systems with the mental patterns that keep them stuck. Why people wants root-cause answers, not more generic wellness noise? A little about Tom Mitchell, he is Clinic Director at Chicago Institute for Health and Wellness, and has spent 20 years practicing functional medicine with one stubborn question behind everything he does: what's actually wrong, and why? He brought together chiropractic care, applied kinesiology, functional movement, and clinical nutrition, including some training concepts that he developed around neuro-stabilization. I've broken multiple national bench press records and a world record in the World Drug Free Power-lifting Association, so when I talk performance and recovery and is speaking from under the bar, not just behind a desk. It was a great conversation, and I hope that you enjoy and learn from the conversation.

    S-2- Episode 20- My Conversation with Jobert E. Abueva about The Janus Plan: Beating the Procrastination Trap.

    In this episode, I had a conversation with Jobert E. Abueva about The Janus Plan: Beating the Procrastination Trap. We spoke about procrastination traps that keep people from reaching their goals, moving on from negative situations, overcoming low self-esteem, self-love, self-respect, self-worth, self-value, self-confidence, and believing in yourself when no one else does, and lowering yourselves to build other people up. When many people think about procrastination, they think about people who are lazy and have no inspiration. He breaks down the Janus Plan when it comes to beating the procrastination traps that are keeping you from reaching your goals and the path, purpose, and journey that you are meant to be on. He spoke on mindful cleansing & global rituals when it comes to detoxing the mind from the past and things that are keeping you stagnant, stuff, and procrastination. We spoke on why people's New Year's resolutions are broken by February. How to go about overcoming fear and insecurities that keep you procrastinating and quitting? How can our relationship with our parents be the cause of not doing the things that you can actually do, due to making you feel less than what you are, and breaking your self-esteem and self-worth? A little about Jobert E. Abueva: he is an MBA, TEDx speaker ("Beyond Resolutions: The Art of Beginning with Intention"), and award-winning author whose work has appeared in The New York Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer. Jobert is warm, articulate, and deeply relatable. Instead, he developed a flexible, 6-step framework—inspired by Janus, the two-faced Roman god of thresholds and transitions—to help people reflect on the past, clear mental and physical clutter, and build sustainable life momentum without punitive pressure.This was a great conversation, and hopefully there will be a second conversation coming soon.

We spoke about how symptoms are often clues instead of problems to suppress. He spoke about his journey of being a doctor like his father, who was a pediatrician, as far as helping others who are struggling with weight loss.

    S-2- Episode 16- My Pre-conversation with Ama K. Karikari About Silence Pain, Suffering, and Abuse.

    In this episode, I had a pre-conversation with Ama K. Karikari about silence abuse, pain, and suffering when it comes to relationships, as far as family, romantic relationships, and friendships. She tells her story about what she experienced in her 15-year marriage and the silence abuse that she experienced during the marriage. We talked about the damage of silence when it comes to abuse, pain, and suffering from the people that you love. How can silence mean that you are allowing and giving permission for people to hurt, abuse, neglect, manipulate, and take advantage of you? How can silence be harmful to the point that it affects your self-esteem and how you see yourself? How did she overcome the silence abuse, and get out of the marriage? What was the breaking point that made her leave? How can silence be abusive, and no one think that it is abuse? A little about Ama: she is a TEDxGeorgeSchool speaker, author of Silenced to Soaring, transformational guide, attorney, and founder who helps women understand covert emotional harm and reconnect with their voice. Her perspective is shaped by work with women’s leadership, educational, and community audiences, along with studies at Harvard, Penn Law, and Wharton. It was a beautiful conversation that I wanted to share with my audience when it comes to overcoming adversity, pain, abuse, trauma, and suffering due to silence. The second part is coming soon.
