    Own the Relationship: How the Stay Well Marketplace Changes Everything with Jon Armstrong

    In this episode, Josh Rimany speaks with Jon Armstrong, CEO and founder of Get Healthy Store, to introduce something that has been missing from the health and wellness space: a curated, practitioner-led marketplace where quality is pre-vetted, the relationship stays intact, and your healer never loses the thread. Jon shares his own origin story, breaks down why affiliate models quietly transfer your customers to other companies, why Amazon has admitted that a significant portion of its supplement listings are counterfeit, and why the three buyer values in the health and wellness industry—quality, trust, and convenience—can only be delivered when the practitioner owns the relationship. Listen to Beyond The Pills for a conversation about what health and wellness looks like when it is built around the patient, the community, and a practitioner who never gets cut out of the loop. Jon Armstrong is the CEO and founder of Get Healthy Store, a curated supplement and lifestyle wellness marketplace built specifically for practitioners and clinical influencers. With a background in software, e-commerce, and marketing analytics, he was an early Amazon partner before becoming a patient himself, navigating thyroid cancer, leaky gut, and gluten intolerance. He built the platform he needed when he could not find it. Get Healthy Store carries 400-plus contracted brands, 10,000-plus vetted products, and is built around one principle: the practitioner owns the relationship and the data.

    Breathe Better, Live Longer: The Airway Revolution with Michael Laing

    You track your sleep. You take the supplements. You get eight hours. And you still wake up tired. In this episode, Josh Rimany shares the mic with Michael Laing, co-founder of Airway Health, to explore the one structural problem that no one at your last physical ever mentioned: your airway may be too small, and it has been quietly working against you your entire life. Michael breaks down why modern soft diets are shrinking our jaw bones over generations, why that narrowing airway causes micro-arousals that fragment REM sleep without ever waking you up, and why CPAP is a band-aid rather than a solution. He explains how palatal expansion, myofunctional therapy, and airway-focused orthodontics actually fix the structure rather than manage the symptom, and what a 25% increase in airway volume feels like from the inside. He also walks through the T-spot, a simple tongue posture technique anyone can start using today for free. If you have been doing everything right and still do not feel right, watch this episode of Beyond The Pills. Michael Laing is the co-founder of Airway Health, a clinical practice in Austin, Texas, that addresses sleep apnea and breathing dysfunction at the structural root through palatal expansion, myofunctional therapy, and airway-focused orthodontic alignment. With a background in nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and corporate wellness, he brings a whole-person perspective to what most people are told is a lifelong machine-dependent condition.

    The Lover Warrior Why Successful Men Feel Disconnected

In this solo episode of Beyond the Pills, Josh Rimany introduces the Lover Warrior framework as part of a deeper conversation about men's vitality, modern masculinity, open-hearted leadership, and whole-person alignment.

This conversation is for men who are successful on the outside, asking deeper questions on the inside, and looking for a more grounded way to lead with strength and love at the same time.

    What If Your Symptoms Are Caused By Incoherence

    What if the missing prescription is not another pill, but coherence? In this solo episode of Beyond the Pills, Josh Rimany introduces the idea that some symptoms may be connected to incoherence: the body, mind, emotions, nervous system, and actions moving in different directions instead of working together. Josh explains how stress, anxiety, inflammation, decision fatigue, disconnection, and nervous system overwhelm can show up when the body is out of rhythm. He also shares how tools like breathwork, meditation, nature, stillness, heart rate variability, and HeartMath-style coherence practices can help people begin moving toward alignment. This episode is for anyone who feels tired, foggy, anxious, disconnected, or stuck and wants one practical way to reconnect with the body before reaching for another protocol.

    #131: Beyond TRT: The Deeper Conversation Men Need To Have

    What if testosterone is not the real problem, but only one signal in a much bigger vitality conversation? In this solo episode of Beyond the Pills, Josh Rimany introduces a new short-form solo format and explores what it means to go beyond testosterone. He breaks down why some men chase TRT, supplements, protocols, and lab numbers while still feeling exhausted, disconnected, unmotivated, and stuck. Josh explains why testosterone, sleep, nutrition, and strength training matter, but may work more like amplifiers than the full answer. He also shares how stress, constant achievement mode, disconnection, and lack of alignment can drain the nervous system and keep men from feeling truly vital.

    #130: Why Men Are Losing Their Edge And Calling It Aging with Dr. Zak Zafrani

    #129: 60% of Adults Fear Needles—Why Medicine Still Ignores It | Manju Dawkins, MD

    A Problem We’ve Been Trained to Ignore Needle pain is often dismissed as “no big deal.” Something to push through. Something to “suck up.” But what if that belief is wrong? In this powerful episode of Beyond The Pills, Manju Dawkins, MD challenges one of the most overlooked issues in modern healthcare: “Over sixty percent of adults have needle fear… and yet we’ve been conditioned to believe it’s not a real problem.” This isn’t just about discomfort—it’s about fear, trust, and how the healthcare system conditions us to disconnect from our own experience. The Moment That Changed EverythingFor Dr. Dawkins, this wasn’t theoretical; it was deeply personal. As both a physician and a mother, everything shifted during a routine moment: “She looked straight up at me with this piercing look of like, ‘How could you let that happen to me?’” That single moment sparked a realization that would change the trajectory of her career: “What are we doing? This is insane… as a physician, my job was to do better—and I didn’t.” What followed wasn’t just innovation; it was a mission to restore humanity to medicine. What’s Really Happening in the BodyMost people think needle pain is minor. Temporary. Insignificant. But biologically, that’s not what’s happening at all. “It’s a stranger holding a sharp metal object and piercing you… our biology perceives it as a threat.” Your body doesn’t differentiate between a medical procedure and danger. It responds the same way—with a fight-or-flight reaction. And when that response is ignored or dismissed, it doesn’t just create fear… it erodes trust. The Real Issue: A System Without Time for CompassionThis episode uncovers a deeper truth about modern healthcare: It’s not that providers don’t care. It’s that the system doesn’t allow them to show it. “Healthcare has become more transactional… the system is not designed to offer empathy.” Shorter appointments. Higher pressure. Less connection. The result? Patients feel rushed. Providers feel burned out. And meaningful care gets lost in the process. Tangible Compassion: The Missing Link in HealingDr. Dawkins introduces a simple yet transformative idea: “Healing begins with tangible compassion.” This doesn’t require more time or complexity. Sometimes, it’s as simple as asking: “What can we do to make it better?” A pause. A breath. A moment of acknowledgment. These small shifts can completely change how a patient experiences care—and whether they come back at all. Reclaiming What Healthcare Was Meant to BeAt its core, this conversation is about something bigger than needles. It’s about redefining what care actually means. As Josh reflects: “Care means healing… to love, quite frankly.”Somewhere along the way, that meaning was lost. But conversations like this are bringing it back. Why This Episode MattersIf you’ve ever: Felt dismissed in a medical settingAvoided care because of fearOr sensed that something is missing in healthcare today This episode will resonate deeply. It’s not just about solving pain. It’s about restoring trust. Rebuilding connection. And creating a future where healthcare feels human again. 🎧 Listen now and discover how small moments of compassion can transform the entire patient experience—one interaction at a time.
