    Understanding Mineral Deficiency & Metal Toxicity with Jeff Lioon | The Holistic Pharmacy Podcast

    Today’s guest shares my mission to empower others to take control of their health and address the root cause. We talk about challenges to testing and addressing the foundations of health, which begins with Minerals & Metals. Jeff Lioon is the Creative Director at The Oligoscan. He’s tested over 7,000 people with the device over the last 9 years. After correlating Oligoscan Reports with what people say about their symptoms and health conditions, the test is almost always spot on. I got the opportunity to use scan myself at this year’s Integrative Health Symposium in NYC, and I was really impressed with the report. It gave me a deeper understanding of my baseline and how to optimize my health further, and further decrease exposure to heavy metals. I highly recommend checking out the scan for yourself, and for your clients.

    Modern Pharmacy Media and the Rise of Functional Medicine | TWIRx

    On this episode of This Week in Pharmacy, we bring together three powerful voices shaping the future of pharmacy, independent practice, functional medicine, and healthcare transformation.   First, we welcome Kris Rhea, MBA, Contributing Editor with Dispense Times, a digital publication dedicated to supporting independent community pharmacy owners across the United States. Kris brings a business-focused perspective on pharmacy operations, growth strategy, workflow efficiency, data-driven decision-making, and market positioning. His work with Dispense Times helps independent pharmacists navigate today’s rapidly changing healthcare landscape, including PBM pressures, evolving patient expectations, regulatory challenges, and the need for sustainable business models that keep local pharmacies strong.   We also speak with James Maskell, founder of Evolution of Medicine, an organization built to inspire, equip, and unite functional and integrative medicine practitioners. Evolution of Medicine provides education, practice-building resources, and community for clinicians who are working to build thriving practices rooted in whole-person care. James brings a national perspective on the movement toward functional medicine, community-based care, prevention, and new models that empower practitioners to better serve patients beyond the limitations of conventional healthcare.   Our third guest is Marina Buksov, PharmD, a pharmacist, herbalist, educator, podcast host, and holistic health consultant. After earning her PharmD from St. John’s University and graduating Summa Cum Laude in 2013, Marina entered pharmacy eager to serve patients, but quickly recognized that traditional allopathic pharmacy did not fully align with her deeper calling to help people thrive through prevention, root-cause care, plant medicine, and sustainable wellness strategies. Her experience behind the pharmacy counter and as a patient herself inspired her to pursue health coaching, nutrition, functional medicine, and clinical herbalism. Today, Marina helps pharmacists and healthcare professionals explore natural-minded career paths and build meaningful work that bridges pharmacology, herbal therapeutics, and holistic care.   Together, this episode explores where pharmacy is headed: independent pharmacy survival, business model innovation, functional medicine, patient-centered care, pharmacist reinvention, and the growing demand for healthcare professionals who can connect science, prevention, and real-world practice.   Listen to This Week in Pharmacy on the Pharmacy Podcast Network. Pharmacy’s future is being built by those willing to challenge the current model, support independent practice, and expand the role of pharmacists as trusted healthcare providers.

    Portfolio Ideation & Development: Strategic Growth in Pharma | Executive Dose

As manufacturers face rising pricing pressure, market access barriers, regulatory expectations, competitive intensity, supply chain constraints, and evolving stakeholder demands, disciplined portfolio strategy has become more important than ever.   Listeners will gain perspective on how manufacturers are navigating uncertainty, adapting their growth strategies, and building more resilient portfolio models designed to bring meaningful therapies and solutions to market.

    Ayurvedic Support for the Transition Into Menopause with Maria Gabriela Guevara | The Holistic Pharmacy Podcast

    Today’s guest dropped an unbelievable amount of wisdom in the span of just one podcast episode. She and I both align on so many topics as you will discover in our conversation. We both believe that women have the power to intuit what is best for them and their bodies. Women, especially midlife women, have been taught for far too long that their suffering is "just a part of aging." The system has also taught us that when we have symptoms, we should reach for a drug to fix it (and often holistic medicine is thought of as an alternative herb or supplement). My guest asserts that when symptoms arrive for women in midlife and perimenopause, it is often a wake up call to how we are living our lives, particularly the accumulation of not so nourishing choices in the last couple of decades. Hormones shift, revealing what has already been happening. Women can then heed the call to pay attention to foundational living (how they are eating, sleeping, managing energy, stress, etc) and prevent further disease down the road. The common approach to manage symptoms with herbs and/or HRT are only addressing the tip of the iceberg and are not going to get at the root cause of symptoms. Perimenopause and menopause does not have to be a negative life sentence to the rest of your life, rather it can be seen as an initiation and invitation to finally start prioritizing yourself. Maria Gabriela is a certified Ayurveda Health Counselor, a doctor of pharmacy (Pharm.D.), a 200 hour certified yoga teacher, and founder of Intuitive Ayurveda. She helps people in perimenopause and menopause feel better in their bodies using Ayurveda, science-backed tools, and intuitive coaching — so they can celebrate this phase of life instead of dreading it. The eastern and western perspectives of medicine each have something to offer us, and Maria Gabriela understands this dance. Her goal is to educate on Ayurvedic tools that can (and should) be individualized to each complex person. She strives to help her clients tune into the messages their bodies are sending them. Ultimately, she believes every person is the expert on what is best for them, and can be empowered to hone in on which tools they need to support themselves in mind, body, and spirit.

    Birth Rights, Medical Bills & Legal Advocacy with Andi Orwoll, Esq. | MaternalRx

    Birth Rights, Medical Bills & Maternal Advocacy with Andi Orwoll, Esq In this powerful episode of MaternalRx, Dr. Danielle Plummer sits down with Nevada attorney and founder of Your Legal Doula, Andi Orwoll, to discuss the often-overlooked legal and financial realities families face during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery. From navigating IVF paperwork and unexpected C-sections to battling insurance denials and understanding birth rights, Andi shares how her own journey into motherhood inspired her to create a legal advocacy practice specifically for pregnant and postpartum families. This conversation explores the intersection of maternal health, patient advocacy, legal protections, informed consent, workplace rights, and the emotional toll of navigating the U.S. healthcare system during one of life’s most vulnerable seasons. In this episode, we discuss: - Why birth rights matter - The legal gaps in maternal healthcare - Insurance denials and surprise medical bills - IVF, fertility care, and the hidden administrative burden - Informed consent and patient advocacy during labor - The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) - The midwifery model of care vs. traditional obstetric care - Maternal mental load and postpartum vulnerability - Why tracking medical records, bills, and receipts matters - Navigating medical bills and insurance appeals Key Takeaways: “Policy never overrides your rights.” Andi explains how many patients are intimidated in medical settings and may not realize they have the legal right to informed consent, respectful care, and bodily autonomy during pregnancy and birth. Birth experiences matter. Even when outcomes are medically positive, the emotional and psychological experience of birth can have lasting effects. Advocacy, education, and support can profoundly shape those experiences. The paperwork burden is real. Pregnancy often comes with overwhelming administrative tasks: insurance appeals, billing disputes, maternity leave paperwork, provider reimbursements, and more — all during an emotionally and physically vulnerable time. Midwives, doulas, OBs, pharmacists, and lawyers all have a role. Maternal healthcare works best when it’s collaborative. This episode highlights the importance of interdisciplinary support systems for pregnant families. Track everything. One of the biggest practical pearls from this episode: keep copies of: - Medical bills - Insurance explanations of benefits (EOBs) - Receipts - Appointment dates - Correspondence with insurance companies - Workplace accommodation requests Documentation can make all the difference if problems arise later. About the Guest: Andi Orwoll is a Nevada-licensed attorney and founder of Your Legal Doula, a legal advocacy practice focused on supporting families navigating pregnancy, birth, postpartum recovery, workplace accommodations, and healthcare systems in the United States. Inspired by her own experience with IVF, an unexpected hospital birth, and overwhelming postpartum paperwork, Andi created Your Legal Doula to help families understand their rights and confidently advocate for themselves during pregnancy and birth. * Follow Andi: - https://yourlegaldoula.com/ - Instagram @yourlegaldoula About the Host: Danielle Plummer is a pharmacist, antepartum doula, and founder of Obstet-Rx.
