    # 99 - 6 Must-Do Remedies to Improve Your Bone Health… Naturally

    How often do you think about your bone health? Osteoporosis is a major public health issue affecting more than 10 million Americans. It’s a condition that affects bone density and strength, and it can have significant implications for your overall well-being. 



    Because its symptoms are “silent”, osteoporosis usually isn’t diagnosed until later in life. By being proactive and focusing on building healthy bones in your younger years, you can prevent this dreaded condition. However, if you’ve been diagnosed with bone loss, there’s still so much you can do!



    Getting the right kind of bone-building nutrients, along with weight bearing exercise, is the key to preventing and reversing this disease.



    In this episode, we're diving into why bone health is a crucial topic for everyone—whether you're a young adult, middle-aged, or older. 



    We'll explore the causes of osteoporosis and the different types you need to know about. And we’ll unpack the many natural methods you can incorporate to help rebuild bone and reverse bone loss. I've got research-backed tips and strategies to share, so you can take control of your bone health and improve your quality of life.



    Join in to learn about effective, natural therapies that can make a real difference in your bone health and strength.

    Sidelined: How Women Can Navigate a Broken Healthcare System with Susan Salenger

    Sidelined: How Women Can Navigate a Broken Healthcare System with Susan Salenger

    98 - Sidelined: How Women Can Navigate a Broken Healthcare System with Susan Salenger

    Have you ever felt like you had to fight tooth and nail just to get the medical care you deserve? You're not alone. In today's episode, we're diving deep into the broken healthcare system, particularly as it pertains to women. We'll be chatting with Susan Salenger, author of "Sidelined: How Women Can Navigate A Broken Healthcare System," as she sheds light on the barriers women face in accessing quality medical care.

    Susan opens our eyes to the harsh reality that, even in 2021, gender bias still runs rampant in the medical community. But here's the kicker – some of the barriers women encounter stem from within themselves. It's a double-edged sword, really. Women often find themselves prioritizing the health needs of their families over their own. Can you relate?

    Navigating the healthcare system as a woman is no easy feat. But armed with knowledge and awareness, we can begin to dismantle these barriers and advocate for the quality care we all deserve. Tune in today as Susan Salenger shares her invaluable insights with us. Your health matters – find out how to make sure no one sidelines it!

    Are Electronic Devices Secretly Ruining Your Health? Nature's Brilliant Solution with Justin Frandson

    # 97 - Are Electronic Devices Secretly Ruining Your Health? Nature's Brilliant Solution with Justin Frandson

    Ever feel that something is “off” no matter what you do? Your energy never seems to rally and you can’t drop stubborn weight even though you’re doing “all the things”? 



    Today, I’m joined by an incredible guest, Justin Frandson, Athleticism Performance Coach, founder of EMF Rocks, and author, who's here to shed light on the fascinating link between your environment and your ability to feel and perform your best.



    In working with his athletes, Justin noticed that many were experiencing problems with performance, and he began to connect the dots to the effects of technology.



    For example, he noticed that when one of his athletes stopped wearing his smartwatch, his performance dramatically improved. 



    In his research, Justin found that the EMFs we’re exposed to from 5G, technology wearables, Wifi, and other various forms of electricity, are harming the human body in many ways.



    In this episode we dive into EMFs and their effects on our natural sleep patterns, hormones, energy, and performance, along with lifestyle tips to reduce EMF exposure.



    We also dive deep into EMF rocks and how they can reduce EMF toxicity that significantly affects your health. 



    Justin shares easy changes we can make that reduce our EMF exposure. He also shows us how his innovative solution – EMF Rocks – can reduce EMF toxicity that you’re exposed to. 



    Be sure to check out Justin's work on Athleticism.com and EMFRocks.com for more insights and resources!

    Have you ever felt like you're stuck in a rut, unable to move forward in life? Maybe you've experienced trauma or hardship that's left you feeling paralyzed. In today's episode, we're diving deep into overcoming paralysis and finding peace after trauma with our special guest, Charis Santillie, a Fulfillment & Life Transition Coach and host of the Charis Your Life podcast.

    Even in our daily lives, there are often things that can leave us feeling stuck and paralyzed, whether we realize it or not. After experiencing tragedy, many people turn to various forms of addiction as a coping mechanism. 

    Charis opens up about how she became a workaholic as a way to avoid confronting her trauma, finding solace in the illusion of control. The toll of trauma and stress eventually led to a physical breakdown for Charis, highlighting the importance of addressing underlying issues. 

    Through the guidance of a life coach, Charis was able to find peace and healing, eventually becoming a life coach herself.

    Join our conversation as Charis shares her personal journey of overcoming trauma and finding peace.
