    Wait, Why Do I Still Need ALL of This? | Ep 143

    Have you ever opened your supplement cabinet and thought… wait, why do I still need ALL of this? This week, we’re talking about what it really means to supplement with intention — knowing what you’re taking, why you’re taking it, where ingredients may overlap, and when “more” definitely isn’t better. We’re also taking a closer look at six European botanical formulas we’re especially excited about right now — including support for omega-3s, brain health, digestion, mood, movement and immune health — and why thoughtfully combining nutrients may mean fewer bottles in the cabinet. Plus, we talk about food-based vs. synthetic nutrients, fat- vs. water-soluble vitamins, gut health and absorption, and why what your body needed five years ago may not be what it needs today. And because this is Living Well Together, we start somewhere completely different: Honey turned FOUR, Papaw had his first solo Honey day, and somehow it all leads us back to one of our favorite reminders… The clock is running, so let's make the marbles count. ✨ RINGANA early access begins October 1  ✨ Founder Bonus Packs are available at 30% off during enrollment  ✨ Interested in the wellness products — or the business behind them? Find the links below. Here’s to fewer bottles, more intention, and living these years really, really well.

    Ever Wish You Had the Inside Scoop on Something BIG? | Ep 142

    Have you ever looked back at something and thought, “Oh my goodness, I wish I had known about that sooner!”? Whether it's a new technology, a wellness discovery, or an opportunity that could change the direction of your life, there's something exciting (and maybe a little scary!) about being among the first to say YES. In this episode of Living Well Together, Terry and Lisa are chatting about what it really means to be an early adopter, why curiosity and discernment go hand in hand, and how to recognize the difference between a shiny new distraction and something that genuinely aligns with your values. We're also sharing a little more about our personal journey with RINGANA, the European wellness company preparing to launch in the United States. From the questions we started asking back in January to the green lights that have brought us to this exciting new season, we're pulling back the curtain on what we've been learning, building, and dreaming about together. And how you can connect and be part of this U.S.A founding partners launch! And because it's us, you can expect a few detours involving Terry's impressive hat collection, our very different bedtime routines, and why he might just be the happiest luggage dragger around.  Here's what we're exploring: - Why being an early adopter doesn't mean being reckless. - How to recognize an opportunity that aligns with your values and lifestyle. - Why doing your homework matters more than following the hype. - What we know about RINGANA and its upcoming U.S. launch. - How education, community, and sharing what you love can open doors to new possibilities. Whether you're naturally curious about everything new or prefer to hang back and watch how things unfold, this conversation is an invitation to ask good questions, stay open to possibilities, and discover what might be waiting around the corner. Sometimes the most meaningful new beginnings start with three little words... “I'm curious. Tell me more!” 💜 Here for it!! Thanks for being part of our Living Well Together community! We'd love for you to subscribe, share this episode with a friend, and join us as we continue exploring what it means to live well, together.

    Campfires, Zombie Cells & What We’re Doing Next | Ep.140

    What do campfires, emergency preparedness, fresh skincare, botanical supplements, chiropractic, and a brand-new business adventure have in common? Just the first week of September at the McCoskey house.  In this episode of Living Well Together, Lisa and Terry are catching up on life lately... which means the conversation goes a few places. First up: their Labor Day campout, otherwise known as Camp Papasanonni. There are tents. There are s’mores. A slight resemblance to a shanty town. And somehow, it turns into a surprisingly useful conversation about being prepared when life doesn’t go according to plan. Clean water, flashlights, food, heat... and Terry’s tips to start a fire. Then things take a FRESH turn. Lisa and Terry share more about RINGANA, the 30-year-old European wellness company they’ve been exploring and the fresh philosophy that made them stop and think: Why are so many of our wellness products made to sit on a shelf for years? They talk about fresh manufacturing, botanical and whole-food formulations, topical wellness, metabolic and brain support, and why Lisa has been having so much fun learning about ingredients she’s never heard of, even after decades in the natural wellness world. And underneath all of it is a philosophy that has shaped so much of their work: Decrease toxicity + increase sufficiency = radiant wellness. Lisa’s officially trademarked equation... which Terry apparently just learned was officially trademarked. No biggie. They also talk about the business side of this new adventure, why financial wellness belongs in the living-well conversation, and what it feels like to be getting in early as RINGANA prepares to officially launch in the United States. Founding partner invitations go out October 1, 2026 - be sure to let them know if you'd like to receive one to be part of the US launch! Then customer ordering begins November 1! Lisa and Terry will also be hosting small, invitation-only FRESH Dates locally for people who want to come experience the products, ask questions, and see what all this FRESH talk is about. Be sure to ask about getting on the waitlist for these exclusive events! So yes, this episode goes from camping... to preparedness... to brain health... to skincare... to botanical supplements... to business. Just a normal week around here! And a brief peek into their swirly twirly brains!  Curious about the products, the business, or joining Lisa and Terry for a FRESH Date? Reach out. They’d love to share what they’re learning. And as always, like, subscribe, follow, and share Living Well Together with someone who might enjoy coming along for the conversation.

    Are We Losing Our Humanity | Ep 139

    We’ve never had more ways to make life easier. GPS tells us where to go. Our phones remember our numbers, appointments and passwords. Groceries show up at the door. Amazon can deliver almost anything overnight. AI can answer our questions or make YouTube cover photos. And we never really have to be bored anymore. But… is all that convenience costing us something? In this episode of Living Well Together: Big Life in a Small Town, Dr. Terry and Lisa wonder whether we may be accidentally outsourcing some of the very things that make us capable human beings. What happens when we stop memorizing things because our phones will remember them? When we follow GPS everywhere instead of learning how to get there? When every quiet moment gets filled with scrolling? When we text instead of call, order instead of go, and Google the answer before we’ve even tried to figure it out ourselves? And maybe the bigger question: What if a little friction is actually good for us? We’re talking about: • why your brain may benefit from occasionally turning off the GPS • what boredom and mind-wandering have to do with creativity • the difference between convenience and capability • why kids need opportunities to struggle, solve and figure things out • how we can communicate with hundreds of people while still feeling disconnected • why human connection matters to our health • the lost art of simply sitting still • and a few wonderfully old-fashioned skills we might want to bring back We’re definitely not giving up Amazon, smartphones or modern life. But maybe living well isn’t about rejecting convenience. Maybe it’s about making sure convenience doesn’t replace the things we still want to be able to do for ourselves. So here’s our question for you: What little inconvenience would you intentionally put back into your life? Drive somewhere without GPS? Call instead of text? Cook without a recipe? Memorize a phone number? Sit on the porch and do absolutely nothing? Let's hear it! Pop it in the comments for some ideas!  And if you enjoy these conversations, LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and SHARE Living Well Together: Big Life in a Small Town with somebody you’d love to sit on the porch and talk about life with.

    What If the Crazy People Are Right? | Ep 138

    What If the Crazy People Are Right? Moon landings. Aliens. JFK. Bigfoot. Chemtrails. The Mandela Effect. The Titanic. Flat Earth. 😳 Yep. Here we go!! This week on Living Well Together, Dr. Terry and Lisa tackle some of the world’s most famous conspiracy theories... with very little preparation, plenty of opinions, and one question Terry thinks we should all ask more often: “Why do you think that?” From whether we really landed on the moon to what might be hiding beneath the Denver airport, weather manipulation, Area 51, the JFK assassination, the strange things we collectively remember wrong, and even whether the Titanic was actually… the Titanic - nothing is completely off the table. But underneath all the wild theories is a bigger conversation: How much of what we believe have we actually thought through for ourselves? Because hearing something over and over doesn’t necessarily make it true. And questioning something doesn’t automatically make you a wackadoodle. This episode isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about staying curious, considering another perspective, asking better questions, and being willing to change your mind when the evidence changes. So grab your tinfoil hat, or leave it at home, and come have some big fun with us. In this episode: * Did we really land on the moon? * What does the government know about UFOs and Area 51? * Did Lee Harvey Oswald act alone? * Bigfoot: real creature or really good folklore? * What’s going on underneath the Denver airport? * Chemtrails, cloud seeding + weather manipulation * The Berenstain/Berenstein Bears and the Mandela Effect * Was the Titanic secretly switched with the Olympic? * And yes… Terry entertains the flat-Earth conversation. 😳 Stay curious. Stay skeptical without becoming cynical. And never be afraid to ask: “Why do you think that?” Resources: https://www.geoengineeringmonitor.org/

    What the HERTZ Is Going On?! | Ep 137

    Okay… this one gets a little woo-woo. But what if “frequency” isn’t quite as woo-woo as it sounds? Light has frequency. Sound has frequency. The earth has an electromagnetic field. Our bodies use electrical impulses. Even when we're perfectly still, there is an incredible amount of activity happening inside us. So in this episode, we decided to GO THERE. We're talking about frequency, vibration, energy and how our environment may influence how we feel,  from sunlight, music, nature and grounding to artificial light, screens, Wi-Fi and wearable technology. For years, frequency felt a little too “new-agey" to Lisa,  and even a little too far outside her faith, until she started looking at it differently: If God created light, sound, nature, electricity, our nervous system and the rhythms built into our bodies… why wouldn't we be curious about how they interact with us? Doc and Lisa also dive into these frequency experiences and ways to re-harmonize those cells into a beautiful rhythm through: ✨ Schumann resonance 🌳 Grounding + forest bathing 🎶 Music + the stress response ☀️ Sunlight + artificial light ⚡ EMFs 🧠 The nervous system + fight-or-flight 🛏️ PEMF + the VEMI bed ⌚ WavWatch + personalized frequencies 📱 Wearable technology 🙏 And where FAITH fits into all of it Ultimately, the takeaway is pretty simple: Pay attention to what changes your state. The music you listen to. The light you're exposed to. The people you're around. The time you spend outside. The technology surrounding you. Sometimes living well isn't about adding another complicated thing. Sometimes it's getting outside. Feeling the sun. Walking barefoot in the grass. Listening to music you love. Spending time with people who make you laugh. Quieting some of the noise. And maybe getting your frequency back in rhythm. 😉 Come get a little woo-woo with us. We promise to bring it back down to earth. 😂 Check out these Living Well Resources: WavWatch Frequency watch: 15% off with this link: https://wavwatch.com/livingwell VEMI Bed at Living Well: https://livingwellspinecenter.com Living Well Spine Center: https://livingwellspinecenter.com Cold Laser Therapy: https://livingwellspinecenter.com

    Living Well Together with Brice Davis | Ep 136

    What happens when life changes almost overnight? For Xenia native Brice Davis, it meant facing a multiple myeloma diagnosis in his early 30s while raising a young daughter, navigating a custody battle, and carrying mental health struggles that had already been part of his story for years. In this episode of Living Well Together: Big Life in a Small Town, Brice joins us to talk about the season that eventually became his memoir, Rise Anyway. We talk about the symptoms that finally led to his diagnosis, months of chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant, becoming a full-time dad, living with uncertainty, and what it means to keep building a life when you don't necessarily know what the next chapter holds. But this conversation isn't really about cancer. It's about what Brice discovered on the other side of some incredibly hard days: the hard days don't get to tell you how the whole story ends. Brice shares something we loved: when you're in a valley, it's easy to convince yourself you'll feel that way forever. But life has peaks too. There is a bounce-back. There are still memories to make, people to love, goals to chase, and purpose to find. We also talk about family, asking for help when you'd rather do everything yourself, mental health, finding purpose through adversity, writing a book when you never really planned to write one, strawberry-banana smoothies, a serious love of chicken wings, and the hip-hop career Brice refuses to resurrect for us on the podcast. 😂 His message is beautifully simple: You can be scared and still move forward. You can live with uncertainty and still live fully. You can go through something that changes you and come back stronger. You can rise anyway. This is a hometown story about resilience, fatherhood, purpose, and an ordinary guy who walked through something extraordinary and decided his experience might help someone else keep going. And THAT feels a whole lot like Living Well Together. ❤️ Connect with Brice: 🌐 Brice Davis — https://thebricedavis.com/ 📖 Rise Anyway: A Memoir of Survival, Fatherhood, and Becoming: https://thebricedavis.com/rise-anyway-by-brice-davis/ 📺 YouTube — https://www.youtube.com/@BriceDavis 📸 Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/BriceDavisMedia 🎵 TikTok — @https://www.tiktok.com/@BriceDavisMedia 👍 Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/BriceDavisMedia 🎙️ Book Nook: https://www.wyso.org/podcast/book-nook/2026-07-08/book-nook-rise-anyway-a-memoir-of-survival-fatherhood-and-becoming-by-brice-davis
