1. Chiropractic from the Heart - Dr Stew Bittman

Dr. Stew Bittman spent 40 years in Chiropractic before he finally stopped asking, "What do people want from me?" and started asking, "What is my heart, my body, and Innate intelligence actually telling me?" The result changed everything - his practice, his money mindset, his confidence, and the way he understands what an adjustment really is.Dr. Nick Harvey sits down with one of the profession's most quietly influential voices for a raw, practical conversation about the shift from mechanistic chiropractic to heart-led, present, and deeply connected care.Stew shares the early years when he had the grades, the boards, and none of the congruence, plus the Parker seminar moment that cracked open his philosophy and sent him down a completely different path.You'll discover how the Panama mission trips reshaped his entire understanding of service, why the "box on the wall" became a twelve-year experiment in trust and autonomy, and how one unforgettable shoulder case revealed that the real issue was never the shoulder at all.Stew also breaks down what it means to hear Innate, how to recognize it in impressions and feelings, and why acting on it makes the message louder.We break down the heart-brain connection, the role of presence in the adjustment, and why a patient often experiences three minutes as eight when the chiropractor is fully with them.Stew also shares the difference between doing something to someone and doing it with them, plus the truth about why so many chiropractors think patients "don't get it" when the real issue is often much closer to home.This episode matters because chiropractic loses its power the moment it becomes disconnected from principle.If you feel pulled between business pressure, technical precision, and the deeper purpose of the work, Stew's perspective is a reset - a reminder that the biggest subluxation may be the one between the head and the heart.Essential listening for chiropractors, students, and anyone who wants to serve with more clarity, courage, and presence. You can also hear Stew's vision for the future of the profession, what he hopes his legacy will be, and where he thinks chiropractic still has room to grow.
