    The Healthcare System Is Broken...Here's How to Navigate It | Doctor Christle Guevarra

    Christle Guevarra is a board-certified family medicine physician dedicated to helping people take a proactive approach to lifelong health. In this episode, Don and Dr. Christle explore what preventive medicine really means, and why some of the most important decisions you make for your health happen long before you're ever diagnosed with a disease. Dr. Guevarra explains how patients can build stronger relationships with their physicians, prepare for doctor's visits more effectively, and take ownership of their long-term well-being. The conversation covers annual physicals, preventive screenings, nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress, behavior change, and the importance of consistency over perfection. Dr. Guevarra also shares why celebrating small wins, and letting go of an all-or-nothing mindset, is one of the most powerful ways to create lasting health. ----------------------------- Sponsored By: Timeline / Mitopure: Get 20% off Mitopure to Target Age-Related Cellular Decline and Promote Anti-Aging and Health Longevity.
