580. Uncurable diseases and tough cases. Is there ANY hope?
Why do some people defy every medical prediction while others are told there’s no hope?
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Aaron Hartman to explore what really happens when you refuse to accept the word uncurable. We dive into the limitations of conventional medicine, the hidden roadblocks that keep people sick, and the unexpected breakthroughs that happen when you focus on the foundations of health with real curiosity and persistence. I share how Dr. Hartman’s journey with his daughter reshaped his entire medical career and why her story proves that even the most hopeless diagnoses can evolve in ways no doctor ever predicted.
You’ll also hear powerful, real-world cases from Dr. Hartman’s new book. These are stories of individuals who were written off, dismissed, or told to give up. They are not miracles. They are examples of what becomes possible when you remove barriers, look beyond insurance based limitations, and actually treat the human being in front of you. If you’ve ever been told there are no options left or you love someone who has, this conversation will expand what you believe is possible for healing.

579. GLPs Are a Waste of Money...If You're Not Doing This
Are you wasting your money on GLP-1s like Ozempic or Mounjaro? In this episode, I’m breaking down why these popular weight loss drugs often don’t work and what absolutely has to be optimized first for them to actually do their job. I share the story of one patient who reversed her type 2 diabetes and lost over 100 pounds only after fixing the real root of her metabolic issues.
We’ll talk about the critical connection between your thyroid, your hormones, and how your body responds to any medication you throw at it. You’ll learn why T4-only thyroid treatment fails nearly everyone, how low estrogen or testosterone can stall your results, and how the right approach can turn your metabolism into a fat-burning machine again. If you’ve tried everything and your GLP isn’t working, this is the missing link you need to hear before spending another dime.

578. Are Parasites Controlling Your Health (and mind) and How to Get Them Out of Your Body
Are parasites secretly running the show inside your body? I sat down with the Worm Queen herself, Kim Rogers, to uncover the hidden invaders that can influence everything from digestion and anxiety… to hormones, sleep, and even cravings. In this episode, we dive into the world of parasites, mold, Lyme, and environmental toxins that often go overlooked in traditional medicine and how they may be quietly hijacking your health.
Kim shares her incredible journey from Western medicine expert to uncovering the root causes behind her own health collapse and why she believes proactive parasite cleansing could be the missing link for so many women dealing with gut issues, unexplained symptoms, and thyroid struggles. You’ll hear what to watch for, why testing isn’t enough, and how parasites can manipulate your nervous system, mood, and metabolism without you ever knowing they’re there.
If you’ve ever wondered whether something deeper is sabotaging your progress, this conversation may change the way you think about your body forever.

577. Tired, Foggy, Aging Fast - Let’s Talk NAD!
You’ve heard the buzz in the biohacking world… but what does NAD actually do in your body?
Are your cells equipped to handle stress — or are they silently aging faster than you think? In this episode, I’m diving into the molecule that could change everything about how we age: NAD+. You may have heard the name floating around longevity circles, but few people understand how deeply this tiny molecule impacts energy, DNA repair, metabolic health, inflammation, and even how well we stand up to stress.
So I sat down with Dr. Greg Kelly, one of the leading experts formulating clinically-backed NAD support, to uncover what happens when NAD declines (hint: it starts in your late 20s), how that shows up as everyday symptoms like fatigue or brain fog, and what actually works to raise your levels. If you’re ready to age slower, feel sharper, and optimize your cells from the inside out… this conversation is your next step.

576. Are You Biohacking Your Way to Poor Health? Yes—with Peptides Too!
Are you biohacking your way into burnout? We’ve reached a point where supplements, cold plunges, red light therapy, and peptides are part of our daily vocabulary, but are we actually helping our health, or just stressing our bodies and our wallets? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Donese Worden to cut through the noise on biohacking, peptides, and the supplement craze. Together, we unpack what’s real, what’s risky, and what you actually need to know before you ingest, inject, or invest.
Dr. Worden exposes how even “wellness” can become toxic when driven by stress, misinformation, and over-supplementation. We dive into the dangers of untested therapies, the truth about peptides and stem cells, and why your best medicine might still be sleep, sunlight, and lowering your cortisol. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by all the “must-do” health trends, this episode will bring you back to grounded, evidence-based truth.

575. Controversial: Can You Cure Your Pain or Chronic Disease with Your Mind? Explore the Power of TMS
Pain isn’t always physical, and the cause might not be what you think. In this episode, I’m joined by my friend Daniel Brown for a mind-expanding conversation that challenges everything we think we know about chronic pain and disease. Daniel shares how he went from battling an “incurable” autoimmune condition to being completely pain-free after uncovering a powerful connection between buried emotions and the body’s physical symptoms.
We unpack the work of Dr. John Sarno and the concept of TMS (Tension Myoneural Syndrome), a theory that our subconscious mind can create real, physical pain as a distraction from unresolved emotions. It sounds radical… until you start seeing how many people have healed just by understanding this link.
Daniel and I explore how emotional pain shows up in the body, why logic and science can’t explain everything, and how simply shifting awareness can unlock deep healing without medication, endless therapy, or surgery.

574. The TRUTH About Your Labs: What Your Doctor Isn't Telling You with Dr. Ken Berry
Are your “normal” labs keeping you sick? Most doctors say your labs are fine… but what if “normal” isn’t actually healthy? In this conversation with Dr. Ken Berry, we dig into the truth behind standard lab ranges, why your symptoms matter more than your numbers, and how to become lab literate so you can finally advocate for your own health. We unpack the lies that keep patients stuck, the pharmaceutical influence behind lab ranges, and the one “nuclear option” you can use when your doctor refuses to order the tests you need.
Dr. Berry and I also break down what optimal really looks like and why it’s time to stop settling for “average.” If you’ve ever felt dismissed, unheard, or told your labs are “fine” when you know something is off, this episode will change the way you look at your results forever.

573. Stop Meditating! Calm Your Nervous System in 2 Minutes and Reset Your Hormones with Dr. Melissa Sonners
How much of your fatigue, anxiety, or hormone imbalance is really about your nervous system and not your thyroid, diet, or workouts?
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Melissa Sonners to uncover how chronic stress and constant “doing” can keep your body stuck in survival mode, even when you’re doing everything right. We talk about how to microdose calm throughout your day, retrain your nervous system to feel safe in stillness, and use simple two-minute resets to transform how you think, feel, and function.
Dr. Sonners shares her own powerful story and explains how nervous system regulation became the missing piece in her healing. If you’ve been pushing harder but feeling worse, this conversation will show you how to create real change by finally aligning your body, mind, and hormones.

572. THE Training Episode of the Year: How to Find Balance Between Life, Training and Hormones with Sal DiStefano
What if your drive to “do more” in the gym is actually the thing holding your health back? In this conversation with Mind Pump host and fitness expert Sal Di Stefano, I dive into the often-overlooked psychology of overtraining and how self-punishment disguised as discipline can wreck hormones, metabolism, and mental health. We talk about the fine line between pushing your limits and pushing your body into dysfunction—especially for women navigating thyroid issues, hormonal shifts, or autoimmune conditions.
Sal and I unpack why chronic stress and over-exercising can trigger thyroid problems, why your body clings to fat when you’re doing “everything right,” and how to spot when fitness has turned from self-care into self-sabotage. We also get real about the emotional side of body image, aging, and learning to train from a place of self-respect rather than self-criticism. This episode is packed with breakthroughs that could completely change how you view fitness, health, and your relationship with your body.

571. When Perimenopause Kicks Your A$$ and What To Do About It
What if everything you’ve been told about perimenopause is incomplete or flat-out wrong? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Mariza Snyder, bestselling author of The Perimenopause Revolution, to uncover what’s really happening during the hormonal shift that too many women are told to simply “push through.” We break down the chaos of fluctuating hormones, why symptoms are often dismissed or misdiagnosed, and how you can take charge of your health long before menopause officially begins.
We talk about what’s actually happening in your body during this transition and how to spot it early. Dr. Mariza shares why perimenopause is the most critical time to act, how hormones protect your brain, heart, and metabolism, and why waiting until menopause to intervene can cost you years of vibrant living. This conversation will change how you see your body, your energy, and your future health.
