  1. The Last Chapter Beautifully Lived: Lessons From Hospice with Dr. Charles Vialotti, Medical Director, Villa Marie Claire

    Apr 18

    The Last Chapter Beautifully Lived: Lessons From Hospice with Dr. Charles Vialotti, Medical Director, Villa Marie Claire

    Today’s episode is so special. I sat down with Dr. Charlie Vialotti, Hospice Medical Director of Villa Marie Claire to have a very unique conversation about the transition from life to death and the role that Hospice care plays during that very emotional time. You will walk away from today’s podcast with a shift in perspective that beauty can exist at the end of life for both the patient and the families and that Hospice is not about dying and it is everything about living, quality of life, dignity, grace, connection, gratitude, forgiveness and love. And while it might be a chapter closing for those departing, it can also be an experience that breathes life into those still here. Dr. Vialotti’s passion for Hospice care is his soul’s calling. As the only Resident Hospice Medical Director in the State of NJ, perhaps even nationally, Dr. Vialotti lives every day and night witnessing the unwinding of a soul and the magic of what takes place in, the in between. The in between being here and there. There being Heaven and where our loved ones meet us again. He is a Guardian of a soul’s last chapter and his perspective, wisdom and insights on life transitioning to death are a gift to all that will listen, even if not saying goodbye to someone. In this deeply touching conversation, we explore: How would a family know to even consider Hospice care for their loved one? Is there a moment of transition in someone’s medical journey or a care taker’s journey where there is an opportunity to go about things differently? What is hospice really meant to provide beyond pain management. How Villa Marie is unique from other Hospice experiences and how they embrace the simple joys of life. What are the signs to look for that suggest someone is transitioning from life to death. The power of the sole. The soles of the feet are a life giving energy source of input from the earth and when someone is dying, they are the first area of the body to show life force is coming to a close.  What do families often misunderstand about what the final days or hours look like? Many people fear missing the last breath, that final moment. Does the person dying feel that way too? How important is humor during emotionally heavy times in this process for the patient and the families? Do people tend to die differently when they feel emotionally or spiritually at peace? What does it mean when someone clinically should have died based on the medical signs but they are still hanging on? Are there common themes in what patients express about meaning of life, forgiveness or love at the end? Does the process of dying have an intelligence or rhythm of its own? Do patients ever describe experiences, visions, dreams, or moments of clarity, that feel spiritual or unexplainable? Does Hospice pace you naturally to help bring you to a place of closure and peace before dying? Do people express regretting not taking their health more seriously earlier in life? What do patients most want their families to know or hear near the end of life? What are small things families can do that make a big difference in a loved one’s final days? What lessons from the dying do the living most need to hear? And so much more! Tune in. Follow @levelup_withlauren For more information on Villa Marie Claire visit: www.villamarieclaire.org

    Oral Health + Whole Body Healing: Why Your Mouth Matters, with Biologic Dentistry Pioneer Dr. Gerry Curatola + Biologic Restorative Dentist, Dr. Jeannie Grecco

    In today's episode, we’re diving into the world of biological dentistry, a topic that truly embodies the idea that the mouth is not separate from the body, but intimately and powerfully connected to it. The mouth–body connection is real. What’s happening in your oral health doesn’t stay in your mouth; it influences your immune system, your nervous system, your inflammation levels, your energy and so much more. We explore what it really means to approach dentistry from a whole-body perspective. My time with Biologic Dentistry Pioneer Dr. Gerry Curatola and Biologic Restorative Dentist, Dr. Jeannie Grecco, was filled with so much gratitude.  These are practitioners who are not only incredibly knowledgeable but deeply committed to treating the whole person. The conversation was expansive, insightful and empowering and I truly believe you’re going to feel that too. If you’ve ever wondered whether your dental health could be impacting your overall wellness… if you’ve sensed there’s more to the story… this episode is for you. We explore: What makes a true Biological Dentist, Biological? How important is the mouth to the overall body connection? Is a root canal ever a good option to help preserve the tooth? Is getting a second root canal in the same dead tooth a major red flag? After pulling a root canal tooth can you leave the space empty or do you need a dental implant? Dental Implants. What are the Pro’s and Con’s of titanium vs zirconia and is one preferred in biological dentistry? Dental Meridian Charts and how every tooth is connected to every organ and system in your body.   Are mercury fillings ever ok to have in your teeth or is that a hard hell no?  Why is Fluoride such a hot topic in the dental space and should people get it? What about for kids? What are cavitations and how can these silently affect your health? What can a 3D Cone Beam Scan show you that a x ray cannot? Are sealants an effective way to prevent further decay or break down from grinding?  Can your teeth take a hit when going through menopause?  Truth or False? Mouthwash is poisonous?  Why is it especially important for women to get a cleaning when pregnant or at the very least before pregnancy? How often should people go to a dentist? ...and so much more!

    Beating Breast Cancer & Finding Her Way Back Home to Her Soul’s Purpose with Jill Martin

    In this episode of Level Up with Lauren @ The Barn I sat down with the very special Jill Martin. You most likely know her from the Today Show or from seeing her on the NY Times Best selling author list. Or perhaps you own one of her incredible Sherpa's, By Jill Martin, which feels like the coziest hug of love. Or maybe you are in awe of her strength and resiliency in how she so courageously beat breast cancer and is now filled with such passion as an educator and advocate for women who are in the fight. She is a bright light in this world and it was incredible to learn and feel in this interview how her journey with breast cancer brought her back home to herself-she had the power all along. We discuss: A beautiful letter Jill wrote to herself that hits this journey right on the head. Her awareness of breast cancer with her family lineage. How no test is perfect but divinely placed angels are. In fact her mammogram and sonograms were clear the day she wasdiagnosed with breast cancer. The importance of genetic testing for individuals and for those who are doing IVF. Now on the other end of cancer, in what ways has cancer been a gift. What are ways people can support others during this journey. How can woman stay grounded and trust the process when fighting for your life. When in fight or flight, the importance of having a Doctor you trust as your intuition is wiped out. Things that can help maintain your sparkle during treatment and post treatment. What things help post treatment to pick the pieces up again. Beauty is fleeting, confidence is everything. Be brave and have the audacity to keep going. The positivity behind that courage. How Jill stays medically and emotionally cancer free. All the magic behind her Sherpa empire and what’s to come. The Warrior Effect and the mission. Greatness comes out of trauma. Benefit of post traumatic growth is realizing that you should only surround yourself with A+ people.

    Finding Freedom From Your Thoughts with Mind Architect Peter Crone

    When the stars align, magic happens and that’s exactly what took place when the Mind Architect, Peter Crone and I sat down in The Barn on this next episode of Level Up with Lauren. Peter’s life work is centered in helping people to find freedom from their thoughts and limited beliefs. He has a profound way of seeing what we can’t see and breaks it down in a way that your body emotionally responds too. An actual shift occurs. You feel yourself leaving your 1.0 mindset and quickly embrace a 2.0 mindset, never looking back. For the next 1.5 hrs you are in for an incredible and deeply insightful episode in which your minds will be exposed to a profound way of processing and dare I say, you just might leave this episode feeling…free. In this episode we talk about: 🧠Why past hurts inform future fears. Most futures are not created, they are remembered. 🧠The most dangerous thing you live in, is the prison of your mind. Why do our minds want to scare us? 🧠How the Universe rewards you with magical moments when youface your fears and break free from your limited beliefs. 🧠In ways that we don’t understand life events will unfold exactly as they are supposed to and perhaps even destined because of what we signed up for before coming into this lifetime. 🧠DST: Divine Standard Timing, everything happens for our highest good at the right time. 🧠Understanding prisons that we live in, in our minds, and how to break free from those thoughts. 🧠Why anxiety belongs to the ego and not to the soul. 🧠Are stored emotions the root cause of disease? 🧠Force vs Power and how this exercise has helped top athletesin the world that Peter coaches. We walk through it live in the interview! 🧠Why affirmations are simply, Whip Cream on Shit! 🧠What you resist, persists. Why facing what you resist opens one up to life. And so much more!

    Brett Ender: How Going Carnivore Healed his Ulcerative Colitis and Put Him on a Noble Path Building a Life Rooted in Wellness & Faith, One Piece o...

    Show Notes: A little over 1.5 years ago, Brett so graciously interviewed me on my personal story and helped me launch my new wellness venture, Level Up with Lauren. His last words to me were, “Lauren, I can’t wait to see where you are a year from now.” A dream was manifested, a barn was built and Level Up with Lauren @ The Barn podcast was launched featuring Brett Ender, Meat Mafia and Noble Co-Founder, as the very first guest. In this episode we talk about: -Brett’s incredible story and what led up to his Ulcerative Colitis diagnosis. -What does a carnivore diet entail and how did it help Brett heal his autoimmune condition. -The courage to push back on a mainstream medical system and go about healing in another way, beating the odds and coming off of thousands of dollar’s worth of medications, all from eating meat. To this day Brett is the only patient in his GI’s practice to heal himself through the power of food. -The power of using food as medicine. -The connection between your gut health and anxiety and does raw dairy have a place in the gut microbiome. -What do setbacks look like once you have healed and how they can be used as gifts to let you know you are slipping. -Three tips when shopping your grocery store aisles. Hint! Food should not have expiration dates! -Nose to tail nutrition as the impotence in birthing Noble protein powder, the brands intention behind building a health minded product and what does the future look like. -How Belief Before Ability runs deep in some of the best wellness brand CEO’s. -Why Brett would rather lead a life with faith than without and the importance of building intuition within ourselves. -What’s most important to him now and the importance of surrounding yourself with other people who can lead and inspire both in love and in life. This episode is too good. Brett and I were locked in. So much knowledge is shared. We can’t wait for listeners to hear this and learn. At a minimum walk away with some hope for healing.
