    The Dr Sassy Show with Lynesa Williams

    Healing Mind, Body & Soul with Lynesa Williams Dr. Sassy sits down with holistic health practitioner Lynesa Williams for a raw, funny, deeply personal conversation about what it really means to heal. Lynesa shares the story that brought her into holistic health—from losing her mother at a young age and confronting her own health struggles to discovering the powerful connection between food, emotions, relationships, faith, and the body. Together, they talk about breaking generational patterns, emotional eating, learning to forgive yourself, surrendering control, and why healing is about so much more than diet and exercise. Lynesa also shares practical ideas for healthier eating on a budget, the role of juicing and whole foods, her approach to helping women reconnect with themselves, and the importance of community and accountability. At the heart of the conversation is a message for women—especially mothers, entrepreneurs, caregivers, and "powerhouse" women who are used to doing everything themselves: Stop quitting on you. Love yourself now. Because, as Lynesa puts it, when a woman heals, everything around her heals. This is a conversation about faith, food, family, forgiveness, and finding your way back to yourself.

    The Dr Sassy Show with Coach Tony

    When Basketball Becomes a Life Lesson: Dr. Sassy Interviews Coach Tony In this episode of The Dr. Sassy Show, Dr. Stacy Jagger sits down with Coach Tony for a lively conversation about basketball, mentorship, family, resilience, and what it really means to invest in young people. Coach Tony shares stories from growing up between Chicago and Alabama, the powerful lessons he learned from his family, and his 25 years of coaching and mentoring young athletes. He talks about helping hundreds of kids reach the next level—not just as basketball players, but as students, teammates, leaders, and human beings. The conversation takes an especially meaningful turn as Coach Tony shares stories of young athletes who faced significant obstacles yet found someone willing to believe in them. From a first-time basketball player who eventually made it to the University of Tennessee to a young girl pursuing basketball while facing serious vision challenges, these stories highlight the extraordinary impact a coach can have simply by showing up and refusing to give up on a kid. Dr. Sassy and Coach Tony also tackle a topic close to both of their hearts: kids, screens, and technology. They explore the difference between intentional screen use and endless scrolling, and how technology can be used as a tool rather than allowing it to replace movement, creativity, connection, and real-world experiences. Along the way, Coach Tony delivers some memorable wisdom—including a lesson from his grandmother: “If you know you're right, why argue about it?” It's a conversation about grit, opportunity, mentorship, family, basketball, and helping kids discover what they're capable of becoming. Listen in—and then go outside and play! 🏀 Find Coach Tony on Instagram at @ThePullUpPodcastShow and on X at @ChilllMan7. For more from Dr. Sassy, visit DrSassy.com and MusicCityFamilyTherapy.com.

    The Dr Sassy Show with Dr David Haase

    In this powerful episode of The Dr. Sassy Show, Dr. Stacy Jagger sits down with Dr. David Haase, founder of Maxwell Clinic, for an eye-opening conversation about what truly creates health. Moving beyond symptom management, Dr. Haase shares his journey from traditional medicine at Vanderbilt and Mayo Clinic to developing what he calls Personalized Systems Medicine—an approach that places the whole person, rather than a diagnosis, at the center of care. Together, they explore brain health, neuroplasticity, functional and integrative medicine, prevention of Alzheimer's disease, neurofeedback, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and the importance of addressing the underlying causes of illness instead of simply treating symptoms. The conversation then turns to one of Dr. Stacy's greatest passions: helping families reclaim connection in an increasingly digital world. Dr. Haase explains the neuroscience behind screen addiction, dopamine, attention, nervous system regulation, and the developing brain, making a compelling case for digital detoxes—especially for children. He discusses how excessive screen exposure impacts identity formation, emotional regulation, relationships, and long-term brain development while offering hope that the brain can heal through intentional lifestyle changes and meaningful human connection. Whether you're a parent, therapist, educator, healthcare professional, or simply someone seeking better health, this episode offers practical wisdom and a hopeful vision for creating healthier brains, stronger families, and more connected lives.
