    Jason Hall, MD - Plastic Surgeon in Knoxville, Tennessee

    After years of seeing patients frustrated by ineffective treatments and wasting money on beauty products and treatments that don’t deliver, Dr. Jason Hall decided to set the record straight.  To cut through the noise and expose the truth behind skincare scams, influencer marketing, and underqualified providers, he wrote his book The Art of Aging: Look Great, Not Fake. Dr. Hall breaks down what actually works, what’s worth the investment, and how to make informed choices. He helps readers spot untrained providers, avoid overhyped trends, and build a skincare routine tailored to their biology—not just the latest fads. Knowing that good skincare is the foundation of any anti-aging plan, he also includes a science-backed framework to guide readers toward real results. His passion for education extends beyond the book. His podcast, The Trillium Show, has transformed the way he approaches consultations, with patients coming in better informed and ready for more productive discussions.  For Dr. Hall, great results start with teamwork, which is why every first visit is about understanding a patient’s goals before anything else.

    Candace Smith, LCSW - Psychotherapist in Austin, Texas

    Psychotherapist Candace Smith has always been fascinated by people—how we think, how we feel, and what drives our behaviors. Specializing in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), originally designed for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), DBT helps people manage emotions, cope with stress, and build healthier relationships. Over time, it’s proven just as effective for anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders. Candace’s work focuses on some of BPD’s most challenging symptoms: impulsivity, emotional outbursts, and self-destructive behaviors. These patterns can feel overwhelming, not just for those experiencing them but for the people around them too. To create a safe, supportive space, Candace started a women’s DBT group. It’s a place for connection, skill-building, and open conversation. Each week, members check in, share experiences, and receive feedback (if they’re open to it) to feel heard, supported, and empowered to create real change.

    Joy Kong, MD - Stem Cell Therapy Specialist in Los Angeles, California

    After realizing true healing requires addressing the body as a whole, Dr. Joy Kong expanded from psychiatry to integrative medicine. Now a leader in stem cell therapy, she spends time uncovering root causes rather than just treating symptoms. Unlike traditional medicine, where appointments are often rushed, Dr. Kong takes the time to deeply understand her patients, their history, and the complex interactions within their bodies.  Her approach helps people of all ages, from young children with autism to seniors in their 90’s. She’s treated a 9/11 responder with severe lung damage, restoring lung function, and helped a patient with debilitating trigeminal neuralgia go from 30-50 pain episodes a day to completely pain-free. But her mission doesn’t stop at patient care. Frustrated by how many doctors overlook new research, she founded the American Academy of Integrative Cell Therapy to educate other physicians on stem cell treatments. She even developed a 100% natural stem cell-based skincare cream. Dr. Kong is also passionate about clearing up misconceptions. Through her podcast, she helps people understand the science behind regenerative medicine—so much so that many of her patients walk into their first appointment already informed from her episodes.
