    #104 Why Organic & Ethical Farming Matter with Joel Salatin

    What if everything you’ve been told about food safety, farming, and “sustainable” agriculture is a lie? Factory farms, government overreach, and chemical-laced food—yeah, we’re going there. Today, I’m sitting down with none other than Joel Salatin—the self-proclaimed ‘Lunatic Farmer’—to shatter the myths of conventional farming and expose the broken system controlling our food.   In this episode, we’re diving into: ✔️ Why factory farming is an environmental disaster—and how it’s crushing small farmers ✔️ The dirty truth about food safety laws & how they don’t actually protect YOU ✔️ What real regenerative, sustainable farming looks like (hint: it’s NOT what you see in the grocery store) ✔️ The Food Emancipation Proclamation – how we take back control of what we eat If you care about what’s on your plate, the future of food, and real freedom—this episode is for you.  Dubbed the ‘Lunatic Farmer,’ Joel Salatin is a pioneer of regenerative agriculture and one of the most outspoken voices in food sovereignty. His family-run Polyface Farm in Virginia has become a model for sustainable, ethical farming, proving that chemical-free, pasture-based farming is not only possible but essential. A best-selling author and speaker, Joel challenges the broken food system, advocating for small-scale farmers and consumer choice in an industry dominated by corporate giants. This isn’t just about farming—it’s about taking back control of what's on your plate. ✴️ Connect with Polyface Farms on Facebook & Instagram 📖 Grab his books HERE.    🔥 Take Control of Your Wellness Journey 🔥 🗓️ FREE 30-Minute Personalized Strategy Call, book your session with Autumn and take charge of your health and lifestyle.  🌀 Explore the ‘Know Better | Do Better’ Amazon Storefront to discover curated products that align with cleaner, healthier living. 🛒 FREE “Clean Swap Guide” Download now to discover simple, healthier alternatives for your everyday brands and products. 📧 Stay Informed with the ‘Know Better | Do Better’ Newsletter SUBSCRIBE for exclusive guest updates and special content only for subscribers.

    #99 Debunking Germ Theory: Dr. Mark Bailey Exposes the Flaws in Modern Medicine and Immunity

    Today, I’m sitting down with Dr. Mark Bailey—yes, the husband of Dr. Sam Bailey (from episode 75)—and we’re about to flip everything you thought you knew about germs, viruses, and immunity on its head. Dr. Bailey isn’t your typical physician. After earning his medical degree from the University of Otago in 1999 and working in clinical trials, he walked away from allopathic medicine in 2016—dissatisfied with the mainstream medical system. By 2020, he dove deep into research that exposed unsettling truths hidden in plain sight—truths that challenge everything the medical system preaches.  In this electrifying conversation, Dr. Bailey dismantles the flaws in modern medicine, forcing us to rethink the body’s natural detox processes and the real reason of illness. It’s a raw call to break free from industry-driven health narratives and take back control.  But I’m not here to spoil it—this is something you need to hear for yourself. Buckle up, because this might just make you question everything about how to stay well. Listen in and join the rebellion. ✴️ Connect with Mark's wife, Sam Bailey on Instagram & YouTube. 📖 Grab his books:  The Final Pandemic: An Antidote to Medical Tyranny A Farewell to Virology (Expert Edition) Virology’s Event Horizon  🌀Find other resources of the Baileys HERE.   🔥 Take Control of Your Wellness Journey 🔥 🗓️ FREE 30-Minute Personalized Strategy Call, book your session with Autumn and take charge of your health and lifestyle.  🌀 Explore the ‘Know Better | Do Better’ Amazon Storefront to discover curated products that align with cleaner, healthier living. 🛒 FREE “Clean Swap Guide” Download now to discover simple, healthier alternatives for your everyday brands and products. 📧 Stay Informed with the ‘Know Better | Do Better’ Newsletter SUBSCRIBE for exclusive guest updates and special content only for subscribers.
