How To Be WellnStrong

What does it truly mean to be WellnStrong—not just in body, but in mind and spirit? Follow health and wellness researcher, nutritionist, and podcaster Jacqueline Genova as she explores that question on the How to be WellnStrong podcast. After her mom’s breast cancer diagnosis introduced her to the world of integrative medicine, Jacqueline saw the need for a clear, trusted roadmap to true healing. On this show, she sits down with leading voices in wellness, mental health, and faith to cut through the noise, clarify what actually matters, and give you the tools and perspective you need to move forward with confidence.

103: How to Stop Negative Thoughts & Rewire Your Brain with Dr. Caroline Leaf, PhD Jan 13, 2026

Do you find yourself constantly replaying past events—or feeling like your mind is in a state of chaos? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Caroline Leaf, PhD to explore why anxiety, overwhelm, and intrusive thought patterns aren’t signs that something is broken—but signals of how the mind is responding to stress, experiences, and unresolved patterns. We break down what thoughts actually are, how experiences are wired into “thought networks,” and why the mind controls the brain—not the other way around. Dr. Leaf also explains how it’s possible to redesign a memory—not by erasing the past, but by changing how it’s wired and how it shows up in the present.

102: He Tried to Disprove Christianity—and Ended Up Believing It | Jon Noyes Jan 06, 2026

Ever feel angry at God—but afraid to admit it?

In today’s episode, I sit down with Jon Noyes of Stand to Reason, a former atheist who once believed faith in God was intellectually unwarranted. After examining the evidence for Christianity, everything changed.

Drawing from his background in the legal field, Jon shares how to engage doubt with clarity and compassion—and what it looks like to wrestle honestly with God through grief, loss, anger, and unanswered prayers, without letting bitterness take root.

Episode Revisited: Reversing Autoimmune Disease with Herbal Medicine | Lindsay Etemadipour Dec 16, 2025

Lindsay Etemadipour was among the very first wellness content creators I followed when I started WellnStrong’s Instagram, and she’s been in the wellness space curating content as a holistic herbalist for over ten years. Having grappled with an array of autoimmune diseases and chronic conditions spanning two decades, Lindsay spent years in and out of doctors' offices, finding no relief. Her experience led her to pursue alternative modalities and discover the power of herbalism. Lindsay’s passion led to her founding Symbi, a loose-leaf tea brand providing ancient remedies for modern ailments. In this episode, Lindsay and I discuss the value of holistic treatments in addressing chronic illness, why herbal remedies can be effective tools in treating a variety of disorders – from autoimmunity to hormonal imbalances, how to select quality herbs, and how Lindsay began creating her own herbal blends to help restore her health.

Episode Revisited: Trade A Lie For A Truth - Heidi Lee Anderson Dec 02, 2025

I am so excited to kick off the first episode of the new year with someone I recently met but already consider a dear friend: Heidi Lee Anderson. If you’ve ever wrestled with anxiety about the future, this episode is for you.

We all know how it feels when fear keeps circling, no matter how much Scripture we memorize, how loudly we play worship, or how earnestly we pray. We know the Bible says "Do not fear" — but how do we actually live that out when our hearts still feel heavy?

When Heidi was 23, she was diagnosed with cancer. In the middle of uncertainty, God met her with three jaw-dropping miracles. Today, Heidi is a speaker, author, podcaster, cancer survivor, mother, and my favorite way to describe her — a professional laugher. Her joy is contagious.

I can’t wait for you to hear this conversation. Heidi reminds us what it looks like to walk with God in the unknown and live the abundant life He intends for us.

Episode Revisted: How to Stop Ruminating About the Past & Find Peace in Your Present | Kristie Gaultiere, Psy.DKristi Gauthiere Nov 18, 2025

Every so often, my inner peace can turn to turmoil, especially when faced with competing demands on my time, relationship struggles, and concerns about a loved one. It also doesn’t help that so much is happening in the world around us—it is easy to feel overwhelmed. That is why I’m so grateful to speak with Kristi Gaultiere today. Kristi is a psychotherapist (Psy.D.; LPC4 and MFT29887 in CA) and a director for women in ministry and pastors’ wives. She co-leads "Soul Shepherding with Bill." Jane Willard and Dr. Jan Stoop personally mentored her. In this episode, Kristi and I discuss tactical strategies to calm the mind and still the soul and how to surrender our need for control. We can trust in God’s sovereignty to help us have a healthy relationship with our emotions.

101: Truth vs. Feelings: Navigating a Feelings-First Culture | Tim Barnett Nov 04, 2025

In a world where “my truth” often replaces the truth, how can Christians stay grounded in what’s real and biblical — especially when emotions and culture pull us in every direction? In this episode, I sit down with Tim Barnett, apologist and speaker with Stand to Reason (STR), to talk about living anchored in truth in a feelings-first world. We unpack why truth matters more than emotion, how to share it with clarity and compassion, and what it looks like to filter every belief through the lens of God’s Word. Tim also shares practical ways to discern the Holy Spirit’s leading, engage hard conversations with grace, and stay faithful when standing for truth feels costly or misunderstood. If you’ve ever wrestled with balancing grace and truth, or felt tension between faith and feelings, this episode will encourage you to think deeply, love well, and stay rooted in what’s true.

100: That's Just Not True: How to Replace the Lies You Didn't Know You Believed | Erica Gwynn Oct 14, 2025

What happens when what you feel doesn’t line up with what’s true?

In this episode, I sit down with Erica Gwynn — author of That’s Just Not True: How to Replace the Lies You Didn’t Know You Believed with God’s Unchanging Truth — for an honest conversation on discerning truth in a world full of “half-truths.” We talk about how feelings aren’t facts, finding peace in God’s sovereignty through suffering, and why trusting Him often means surrendering control of the story we thought we’d live.

Erica shares her journey of motherhood, faith, and healing after her daughter’s premature birth — and how God used a painful season to reveal His purpose. We also dive into the lie of manifestation, the tension between free will and divine direction, and what it means to live with intentional rhythms instead of constant hustle.

If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, control, or wondering whether you “missed your shot,” this conversation will remind you that God’s plan is never late, never wasted, and always good.

97: How to Stop Rehearsing Worst-Case Scenarios & Start Choosing Joy | Nicole Zasowski Sep 23, 2025

I’m so excited to share this week’s NEW episode with Nicole Zasowski, a Marriage & Family Therapist and the author of What If It’s Wonderful?, From Lost to Found, and Daring Joy. In this conversation, we talk about why joy can feel so vulnerable, why our minds often default to worst-case scenarios, and how we can find the courage to embrace the good in our lives instead of always fearing what’s around the corner. For so many of us, it feels safer to prepare for disappointment than to fully lean into joy — but in doing so, we miss out on the very moments we’re longing for. Nicole shares powerful insights and practical steps to help us shift our perspective, regulate our thoughts, and truly celebrate both the small and big moments that make life meaningful.

Episode Revisited: What to do When Your Emotions Don't Tell the Truth | Gina Pope Sep 09, 2025

Today's episode is very special to me because I get to sit down and chat with my cousin Gina. I always joke with her that any of our phone conversations would make great podcast episodes, so I figured we might as well record one. In this episode, Gina and I discuss how to trust God when our feelings suggest otherwise, what to do when our thoughts don’t align with scripture, how to make decisions when we feel like we aren't getting a clear answer from God, and the power of speaking the word.

Episode Revisited: If God is Good, Then Why is Life Hard? | Pastor Matt Howell Aug 05, 2025

When trials befall us, we’re often tempted to question God’s goodness or power, and because we want an end to our pain, we try to figure out why God has allowed particular trials into our lives. We reason that if we can just understand what God is doing, we can work towards a way out of our suffering. I am so excited to share with you guys my conversation today with Pastor Matt Howell, as we discuss some profound questions about suffering. Pastor Matt grew up in Dallas, TX and graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 2003. After graduation, he served as an intern with RUF at LSU for two years where he developed a heart for pastoral ministry and met and married his wife, Kathryn. After 11 years of being a campus minister with RUF, Matt now serves as a pastor at Redeemer Presbyterian Church, in Memphis, Tennessee. While we can’t know God’s specific reasons for the trials that he allows into our lives, we do know that He has a big-picture purpose for the sufferings we endure.

88: “I Shouldn’t Feel this Way” — How to Navigate Your Difficult Emotions | Dr. Alison Cook May 06, 2025

Let’s be honest — we’ve all had those days when our emotions feel overwhelming or our thoughts just won’t slow down. It’s frustrating, right? Especially when we catch ourselves thinking, “I shouldn’t feel like this,” and yet... we still do. These emotional moments tend to ripple into so many areas of our lives — from our relationships to how we view ourselves and even how we show up at work.

But here’s the good news: feeling our emotions is perfectly okay. What truly matters is how we respond to them.

Today’s guest is Dr. Alison Cook — a psychologist, podcast host, and the author of several books, including her latest, I Shouldn’t Feel This Way: Name What’s Hard, Tame Your Guilt, and Transform Self-Sabotage into Brave Action. For the past two decades, Alison has helped women, couples, and leaders process emotional pain, build inner confidence, and live more fully into their God-given identity.

Episode Revisited: How to Build a Non-Anxious Life | Dr. John Delony, PhD Apr 29, 2025

What if I told you that anxiety is just an alarm system? Our guest today, Dr. John Delony, refers to anxiety as our body's internal notification that our brain is detecting danger, that our body is in desperate need of sleep and restoration, that we are disconnected from our community, or that we are lonely. Dr. John Delony is a national best-selling author, mental health & wellness expert, and the host of The Dr. John Delony Show. He holds two PhDs, and has over two decades of experience in counseling, crisis response and higher education. You could say that Dr. Delony essentially spends his time teaching people how to find freedom and reclaim their lives. In this episode, Dr. Delony shares his thoughts on how to create a life that doesn’t leave you feeling constantly overwhelmed, how to overcome toxic perfectionism, and a few strategies to avoid loneliness.

Episode Revisited: The Metabolic Approach to Cancer | Dr. Nasha Winters, ND, FABNO Apr 15, 2025

When it comes to treating cancer, conventional medicine is good at cutting it, burning it, and poisoning it, but many oncologists fail to address the root cause. Join me as I speak with Dr. Nasha Winters, ND, FABNO, about the importance of a terrain-based approach when it comes to treating cancer. Dr. Winters shares the ten key elements of a patient’s “terrain” that are crucial to preventing and managing cancer. We discuss the importance of listening deeply to the cells of the body (with labs, molecular profiling, epigenetic testing, and more), metabolically supporting the body’s terrain (with a therapeutic diet, oxidative therapies, and stress reduction), and recognizing that the body has an inherent ability to heal.
What you'll learn from this episode:

Why addressing the body’s internal terrain is not only critical in prevention but also in the treatment of cancer
How to address metabolic dysfunction
Limitations of conventional cancer treatment
Lifestyle strategies integral for not only prevention but also better treatment outcomes
The importance of emotional healing in the cancer journey
& So much more!

83: Creating the Healthiest and Tastiest Protein Bar on the Planet | Jake & Rachel Beaudry Feb 25, 2025

If you’ve struggled with finding high protein bars that actually taste good, you are going to really appreciate this episode. Join me as I sit down with Jake & Rachel Beaudry, the founders of Rawr Organics, as we discuss their journey in creating what I think is one of the tastiest, healthiest protein bars on the planet. Rawr Organics was born out of the pain point in that it was hard to find high protein bars that actually tasted good and didn't have fillers, binders, fake sweeteners or dairy. The bars range from 18-20 grams of protein and come in tasty flavors from cookie dough and birthday cake to lemon poppy and dark chocolate raspberry. Jake and Rachel are not only incredible entrepreneurs, but they are mission-minded, with beautiful hearts and a strong desire to help people.

82: Why Nitric Oxide is the Key to Heart and Brain Health | Dr. Nathan S. Bryan, Ph.D. Feb 18, 2025

Cardiovascular disease continues to be the leading cause of death for both men and women. One major factor may be low levels of nitric oxide, a molecule that promotes vasodilation and smooth blood flow. By recognizing the signs of deficiency, we can raise our levels and lower our risk. In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Nathan Bryan, a Nitric Oxide Scientist, inventor, and author, as we to explore the importance of nitric oxide for our long-term health. Dr. Bryan discusses the four key characteristics of disease, the effects of excessive antacid use, and the link between reduced nitric oxide levels and an increased risk of Alzheimer’s. He also shares insights into lifestyle factors that can either diminish or enhance nitric oxide production, how to assess your levels, and symptoms that may indicate a deficiency. Dr. Nathan Bryan is a distinguished biomedical researcher recognized for his pioneering work on nitric oxide biology. His research has greatly contributed to our understanding of nitric oxide's vital functions in cardiovascular health, immune response, and neurobiology. Beyond his academic contributions, he is dedicated to promoting public health by translating his findings into practical health solutions.

81: How to Regain Hormonal Health with PCOS | Tallene & Sirak Hacatoryan Feb 11, 2025

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that affects 5 to 10% of women of reproductive age. Despite many women struggling with difficult symptoms like irregular or absent periods, excessive hair growth, acne, and weight gain, we still know little about it. Unfortunately, it often takes visiting multiple doctors to receive a proper diagnosis. That’s why I’m excited to sit down and speak with Tallene, a PCOS Weight Loss Registered Dietitian, and her husband Sirak, a PCOS-focused personal trainer, to talk about all things PCOS! We discuss the root causes of PCOS, common symptoms, what a PCOS-friendly diet looks like, the best exercise routine for PCOS, and much more!

Episode Revisited: An Alternative Approach to Conventional Cancer Treatment | Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy, MD Jan 28, 2025

Today I’m throwing it back to one of the most downloaded episodes of the How to be WellnStrong podcast to date - my conversation with integrative cancer expert, Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy.

If you’ve been following me for a while, you probably already know that I’m incredibly passionate about an integrative approach to cancer. In fact, that’s the topic I wrote my college thesis on. An integrative approach combines conventional medicine with evidence-based alternative and complementary therapies.

In this episode, Dr. Connealy and I discuss why cancer rates are at an all-time high, the importance of early detection, alternative screening options, and what an integrative treatment approach truly entails.

79: She’s Not Your Enemy: Finding Freedom from Insecurity and Comparison | Jenn Schultz Jan 21, 2025

Sometimes, the people in our lives feel like enemies: The colleague who threatens your position at work. The friend who talks behind your back. The person who seems to have it all together—while you are barely hanging on.
But the real enemy is the one who is trying to defeat you with lies that lead to isolation, insecurity, and division. I’m so excited to sit down with Jenn Schultz on the show today as we discuss her latest book, She’s Not Your Enemy.

Jenn is a writer, a wife, and a mom. She’s known for sharing her messy faith journey and plenty of scriptures to help remind us that it’s ok to be imperfect because our God is perfect enough for us all.

78: The Harmful Effects of EMF Radiation and How To Combat It | Daniel DeBaun Jan 14, 2025

Today, we’re exploring something that is all around us yet invisible to the naked eye—Electromagnetic Fields, or EMFs. From the devices in our pockets to the Wi-Fi signals connecting our homes, EMFs are an inescapable part of 21st-century life. But what exactly are they? How do they interact with our bodies, and are they as harmless as they seem—or do they pose risks we should be addressing?

That’s why I’m so excited to welcome Daniel DeBaun to the show today. Daniel is a globally recognized authority on EMF radiation, shielding technologies, and the health implications of EMF exposure, with a particular emphasis on the impact of devices like laptops, tablets, and smartphones. He is the co-author of Radiation Nation: The Fallout of Modern Technology and serves as the CEO of DefenderShield, a leading company in EMF radiation protection solutions.

In this episode, Daniel and I discuss the potential risks associated with EMF radiation, the science behind 5G technology, current FCC exposure guidelines, the most concerning EMF sources, and practical strategies to reduce exposure in everyday life.

77: Trade a Lie for a Truth: How to Stop Believing Everything You Think | Heidi Lee Anderson Jan 07, 2025

I am so excited to kick off the first episode of the new year with someone I recently met but already consider a dear friend: Heidi Lee Anderson. If you’ve ever wrestled with anxiety about the future, this episode is for you.

We all know how it feels when fear keeps circling, no matter how much Scripture we memorize, how loudly we play worship, or how earnestly we pray. We know the Bible says "Do not fear" — but how do we actually live that out when our hearts still feel heavy?

When Heidi was 23, she was diagnosed with cancer. In the middle of uncertainty, God met her with three jaw-dropping miracles. Today, Heidi is a speaker, author, podcaster, cancer survivor, mother, and my favorite way to describe her — a professional laugher. Her joy is contagious.

I can’t wait for you to hear this conversation. Heidi reminds us what it looks like to walk with God in the unknown and live the abundant life He intends for us.

75: When God Says “Wait” | Elizabeth Laing Thompson Dec 03, 2024

You may have heard of the expression that God answers prayers in one of three ways. He either answers: “Yes,” “No,” or “Not right now.” In my prayer life, it is seldom easy for me to clearly figure out which of these three responses He is giving me. Oftentimes, I end up acting like an amateur detective, trying to piece together clues as to what God is telling me to do, so that I can quickly make a decision. I often struggle with waiting when I simply don't have a crystal-clear answer from Him. That’s why I’m so excited to sit down and talk with Elizabeth Laing Thompson, about all things “waiting.” Elizabeth is a speaker and novelist, and the author of many inspirational books for women and teens, including All the Feels, All the Feels for Teens, When a Friendship Falls Apart, and the When God Says series. She writes to help others find hope when they're waiting, help when they're hurting, and humor in holiness. My key takeaway? When God makes us “wait,” we can control only two things: how we wait, and who we become along the way.

74: If God is Good, Then Why is Life Hard? | Pastor Matt Howell Nov 19, 2024

When trials befall us, we’re often tempted to question God’s goodness or power, and because we want an end to our pain, we try to figure out why God has allowed particular trials into our lives. We reason that if we can just understand what God is doing, we can work towards a way out of our suffering. I am so excited to share with you guys my conversation today with Pastor Matt Howell, as we discuss some profound questions about suffering. Pastor Matt grew up in Dallas, TX and graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 2003. After graduation, he served as an intern with RUF at LSU for two years where he developed a heart for pastoral ministry and met and married his wife, Kathryn. After 11 years of being a campus minister with RUF, Matt now serves as a pastor at Redeemer Presbyterian Church, in Memphis, Tennessee. While we can’t know God’s specific reasons for the trials that he allows into our lives, we do know that He has a big-picture purpose for the sufferings we endure.

73: How to Cultivate Deeper Relationships | Meredith Boggs Nov 12, 2024

Today we’re talking about the Enneagram and how it can help us grow in our relationships. For those of you not familiar with the enneagram test, it’s a personality assessment that helps us understand our emotions and motivations at a deeper level. It also helps us understand and connect with the people we love, whether that’s a friend or our family, our coworkers or our spouse. That’s why I’m so excited my new friend Meredith Boggs to the show today. Meredith is an expert when it comes to the Enneagram and is the author of the book, The Journey Home; A Biblical Guide to Using the Enneagram to Deepen Your Faith and Relationships. In this episode, Meredith provides an overview of each Enneagram type, as well as each type’s core emotions, stress and security expressions, and primary defense mechanisms. Meredith also explains what the enneagram is (and what it’s not), and how it can serve as an effective tool for emotional health, empathy, and discipleship.

72: How to Stop Ruminating About the Past & Find Peace in Your Present | Kristie Gaultiere, Psy.D Nov 05, 2024

Every so often, my inner peace can turn to turmoil, especially when faced with competing demands on my time, relationship struggles, and concerns about a loved one. It also doesn’t help that so much is happening in the world around us—it is easy to feel overwhelmed. That is why I’m so grateful to speak with Kristi Gaultiere today. Kristi is a psychotherapist (Psy.D.; LPC4 and MFT29887 in CA) and a director for women in ministry and pastors’ wives. She co-leads "Soul Shepherding with Bill." Jane Willard and Dr. Jan Stoop personally mentored her. In this episode, Kristi and I discuss tactical strategies to calm the mind and still the soul and how to surrender our need for control. We can trust in God’s sovereignty to help us have a healthy relationship with our emotions.

70: How to Use Intermittent Fasting to Boost Energy, Improve Cognitive Functioning, and Promote Metabolic Health | Cynthia Thurlow, NP Oct 22, 2024

Food plays a remarkable role in healing, but the timing of when we eat or abstain can significantly affect our health as well. Fasting serves as a powerful tool to support longevity. It not only triggers the activation of anti-aging genes but also strengthens the immune system by repairing damaged DNA and eliminating compromised cells. Fasting has also been shown to enhance metabolic flexibility, sharpen mental focus, and support consistent energy levels.
Today I'm joined by Cynthia Thurlow, NP, the CEO and founder of the Everyday Wellness Project, and international speaker, with over 10 million views for her second TEDx talk (Intermittent Fasting: Transformational Technique). With over 20 years of experience in health and wellness, Cynthia is a globally recognized expert in intermittent fasting and nutritional health, and has been featured on ABC, FOX5, and Entrepreneur among others. Cynthia hosts the Everyday Wellness podcast, considered one of "21 Podcasts To Expand Your Mind in 2021” by Business Insider. Her mission is to educate women on the benefits of intermittent fasting and overall holistic health and wellness, so they feel empowered to live their most optimal lives. In this episode, Cynthia and I discuss the benefits of intermittent fasting – from longevity to metabolic health to cognitive functioning, how to fast correctly, who should & shouldn’t be fasting, the optimal meal to break a fast, and so much more.

69: The Truth About Mammograms | Dr. Jenn Simmons, MD Oct 08, 2024

Breast cancer is never a blessing, but it can be a blessing if you seize the opportunity to take back control of your health. I’m very excited to welcome Dr. Jenn Simmons, MD, an integrative oncologist, breast surgeon, author, podcast host, and the founder of perfeQTion imaging, to the show today. Dr. Simmons began her career as Philadelphia’s first fellowship-trained breast surgeon and spent 17 years as Philadelphia’s top breast surgeon. Her own illness led her to discover functional medicine. Captivated by the concept of promoting her own good health rather than suppressing symptoms, Dr. Simmons rejected traditional medicine treatment methods in 2019 and founded Real Health MD to support all women on their breast cancer journey. In this episode, Dr. Jenn and I discuss the flaws with breast cancer screening methods like mammography, the future of breast cancer imaging, and the benefits of considering a holistic approach when it comes to battling cancer.

67: Restore Your Mitochondria with Methylene Blue | Dr. Scott Sherr, MD Sep 24, 2024

Introduced by German chemist Heinrich Caro as a textile dye in the 19th century, methylene blue soon attracted the interests of notable scientists like Robert Koch and Paul Ehrlich. Recognizing its unique antimicrobial properties, they helped transition it from textile labs to medical clinics. By the early 20th century, methylene blue had gained recognition as an innovative malaria treatment, a role it continues to have today. Methylene blue may also offer a wide range of other significant health benefits, beyond fighting infections. By acting as an “electron donor”, methylene blue supercharges your mitochondria, or the powerhouses of your cells. Join me as I sit down with Dr. Scott Sherr, MD, and explore how this incredible compound is currently being used to treat chronic illness, boost cognitive functioning, improve energy, reduce inflammation, and even offer anti-aging benefits.

Lindsay Etemadipour was among the very first wellness content creators I followed when I started WellnStrong’s Instagram, and she’s been in the wellness space curating content as a holistic herbalist for over ten years. Having grappled with an array of autoimmune diseases and chronic conditions spanning two decades, Lindsay spent years in and out of doctors' offices, finding no relief.

She is a Registered Dietitian, Nutritionist, women’s health expert and the founder of The Women’s Dietitian, a digital platform that helps women seek nutritional support for hormone balance, PCOS, fertility, and weight management.

58: Overcoming Stage IV Cancer Against the Odds | Jon Hegarty Jul 23, 2024

Join me as I speak with Jon Hegarty about his brother Christian's remarkable journey in overcoming a terminal cancer diagnosis. In 2020, Christian was diagnosed with osteosarcoma. His doctors told him his only treatment options were chemotherapy or hospice care. Christian’s story illustrates that when conventional medical treatment fails, alternative paths to healing are worth exploring. Willing to try anything, Christian gave himself 5 weeks to explore alternative treatments. He radically changed his mindset, implemented dozens of holistic healing strategies like high-dose vitamin C infusions and mistletoe. To everyone’s astonishment, after just 5 weeks, the oncology team at Dana Farber called with shocking news - his tumors had somehow shrunk. Christian is now 2 years into remission. Since then, the brothers have started a non-profit called "GoingWell", that connects cancer survivors like Christian - people who have all but been written off by conventional medicine - to cancer patients who could benefit from their guidance and experience.

Stephanie May Wilson is an author and a popular podcaster who is on a mission to help women navigate through their biggest decisions in life.

38: How to Build a Healthy Home | Jen & Rusty Stout Jan 30, 2024

We know it’s important to eat a healthy diet, take vitamins, and consume the right number of calories to fuel exercise and boost cardiovascular health.

We even spend top dollar on premium-priced organic clothing and sheets – all in the name of healthier living. This is all great, beneficial, and essential to living a better life. However, it’s truly surprising how few people stop to think about the bigger picture: their living environment. Join me as I speak with Jen & Rusty Stout, founders of JS2 Partners Healthy Home, as we discuss the many different factors that go into creating a healthy home.

36: Why SSRIs Are Ineffective & Dangerous for Depression | Dr. Roger McFillin, Psy.D., ABPP Jan 16, 2024

“The dangers of medicalizing the human condition are nothing short of a silent epidemic in American society. This dangerous trend pathologizes the core of human experience, categorizing everyday emotions and responses to trauma and life's challenges as disorders. It's a slippery slope into psychiatric over-diagnosis, overmedication, and a lifetime of pharmaceutical dependency.” – Dr. Roger McFillin, Psy.D., ABPP
The notion that depression is the result of a “chemical imbalance” in the brain emerged, not coincidentally, in the late '80s with the introduction of Prozac—a drug that appeared to be helpful in treating depression by increasing levels of serotonin. Pushed heavily by Big Pharma as well as organizations including the American Psychiatric Association, this storyline has become the dominant narrative up until recently, in which an umbrella review (led by Joanna Moncrieff) concluded that, “The main areas of serotonin research provide no consistent evidence of there being an association between serotonin and depression, and no support for the hypothesis that depression is caused by lowered serotonin activity or concentrations.”
Join me in this episode as Dr. Roger McFillin and I discuss topics including dispelling some of the myths around depression being a chemical imbalance, the over-use of prescription medications, and some of the issues today that are threatening to take away our medical freedom.

Despite being formally trained in evidence-based treatments and achieving Board Certification in Behavioral & Cognitive Psychology from the American Board of Professional Psychologists, Dr. Roger McFillin has witnessed countless individuals deteriorate under these supposedly “best available evidence” recommendations. Many who turned to drugs and medical interventions to improve their mental health worsened dramatically. In an attempt to resolve the conflict between what he was seeing in clinical practice and what he was told to be safe and effective, Dr. McFillin immersed himself in scientific literature, delved into ancient philosophy, and scrutinized historical texts. His revelations were astounding. Much of the current scientific base that informs psychiatry and the mental health field is infected with corruption and bias. Dr. McFillin now shares his experience, and addresses the pervasive issues that threaten to take away our medical freedoms in his captivating Radically Genuine Podcast.

33: The Metabolic Approach to Cancer | Dr. Nasha Winters, ND, FABNO Dec 19, 2023
