Red vs. Near-Infrared vs. Pulse Frequency: How Red Light Therapy Actually Works (Part 2 of 2)
In Part 1, John Graham Harper shared how skepticism turned into a company after red light therapy healed a knee injury that had plagued him for years. In Part 2 of this Your Health Reclaimed conversation, Dr. Brad and John go deep into the actual science — the wavelengths, the devices, and the clinical protocols behind Lumaflex.John breaks down exactly how his devices work: red light at 630 nanometers penetrates roughly an inch into the body, while near-infrared light at 850 nanometers reaches about four inches deep — meaning the same device can address surface-level inflammation or deeper chronic pain, depending on the wavelength. He compares Lumaflex to a familiar tool: it's built to be the light-therapy version of a massage gun — portable, durable, and designed for a 10-minute, skin-contact session rather than a distant, passive treatment.The conversation covers all three Lumaflex devices: the Essential (the standard red and near-infrared unit), the Body Pro (a fully waterproof, IP67-rated version with a spare battery that's GSA-approved and used by the U.S. military, including in ambulances overseas), and the Essential Pro (a six-wavelength device reaching up to 1064 nanometers, built around brain-health applications and currently part of an autism clinical trial in Italy).Then Dr. Brad introduces one of the episode's most practical insights: pulse frequency. Lumaflex's app lets users adjust pulse frequency up to 100Hz, with clinical research behind specific settings — including 40Hz aimed at the back of the neck for PTSD, and 50Hz for menstrual pain. Dr. Brad adds a protocol tip from his own clinical experience: higher frequencies (60–100Hz) calm pain down fast but don't last, while lower frequencies (5–15Hz) take longer to kick in but produce relief that actually holds.Key takeaways from Part 2:Why wavelength determines how deep light therapy penetrates — and which conditions it can reachThe difference between near-infrared and far-infrared light (and why only one is FDA-cleared for pain)What separates Lumaflex's three devices, including the one used by the U.S. militaryThe pulse-frequency protocol that can make the difference between short-term and lasting pain reliefIf you missed Part 1, go back and hear the injury story that started it all — then come here for the science.Want to get to the root cause of your own health issue?

Red Light Therapy for Chronic Pain, PTSD & Brain Health: The Science Explained w/ Lumaflex CEO John Graham Harper
What if the pain you've been told to "just live with" could start disappearing in a week — not from a pill, but from light?This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation on Your Health Reclaimed. Dr. Brad sits down with John Graham Harper, founder and CEO of Lumaflex, to trace the injury-to-innovation story behind one of the most talked-about red light therapy devices on the market — before the science and product breakdown come in Part 2.John's journey starts on the rugby pitch. A competitive rugby player turned amateur boxer, he suffered two separate shoulder dislocations from brutal, front-on tackles, plus a left knee injury so severe he couldn't sit in a seated position for more than 15 minutes without agonizing pain. Proud, stubborn, and determined to fix himself without doctors, he self-treated with drugstore deep-heat creams for years rather than get the imaging or care his injuries actually needed.Then his then-girlfriend, now wife, handed him a red light lamp and told him to aim it at his knee for 20 minutes a night. He thought it was "pseudoscience" — until, one week later, the chronic pain that had shaped years of his life was simply gone. That moment sent him down a research rabbit hole into photobiomodulation and, eventually, to founding Lumaflex.Dr. Brad, drawing on decades of orthopedic experience treating shoulder injuries without surgery, breaks down exactly what happened inside John's shoulder the moment it dislocated — and the one exercise that could have prevented it entirely. From there, the conversation opens into the physics of light itself: what a photon really is, why the "solar system" model of an atom you learned in school isn't quite accurate, and the fundamental difference between red and blue light therapy.Key takeaways from Part 1:The real mechanism behind the most common shoulder dislocation in contact sports — and how to prevent itWhy John dismissed red light therapy at first, and what changed his mind in exactly one weekHow red light and blue light are used for completely different purposes in the bodyA brief history of light therapy, from early 1900s "light booths" to today's portable devicesThis is the human story behind the technology — Part 2 goes deep into the exact wavelengths, devices, and clinical protocols John built into Lumaflex.Want help getting to the root cause of your own chronic pain or health issue?

The Paleo Diet Exposed: Gut Health, Toxic Meats & The Protein Myth
The Paleo Diet is one of the most popular eating plans in the world — but is it actually healing your body, or quietly making things worse? In this episode, Dr. Brad Montagne of HealthfullyU.com takes a hard, science-backed look at the Paleo (Hunter-Gatherer) diet and exposes the critical gaps that most health influencers never talk about. With nearly 40 years of Functional Medicine experience — and having personally conquered Lyme disease, systemic Candida, and chronic illness through diet — Dr. Brad breaks down exactly what this diet gets right, what it dangerously gets wrong, and what the world's healthiest, longest-living cultures actually eat instead. WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER IN THIS EPISODE: — Why the "hunter-gatherer as our original diet" story doesn't hold up historically — The truth about lean meats: why grass-fed vs. feedlot is a non-negotiable — Farm-raised fish vs. wild caught — and why farm fish creates the same toxic problems as feedlot beef — How Roundup and Atrazine (10x more toxic than Roundup) are silently destroying your gut microbiome, detox pathways, and nutrient absorption — The fiber crisis hiding inside the Paleo diet — and why low-fiber diets cause leaky gut, IBS, Crohn's disease, hemorrhoids, and skin rashes like eczema and psoriasis — Why removing apples from your diet eliminates one of nature's most powerful gut-healing foods (pectin absorbs up to 10 times its volume in water) — The dangerous truth about nuts and seeds as a protein source: rancid oils, incomplete proteins, and the pH-acidifying effect on every cell in your body — Why clean organic grains — not all grains — are one of the most stable, staple foods in every healthy culture on earth — Why legumes are the healthiest protein food on the planet — and how to combine them with grains and mushrooms to build complete proteins without relying on meat — How incomplete proteins destabilize blood sugar, spike cortisol, and drive insulin resistance, fat gain, and diabetes — Why dairy causes osteoporosis, hormone dysregulation, PCOS, PMS problems, and why it contains casomorphine — an opioid compound designed to keep you addicted — What the healthiest, longest-living cultures in the world eat daily — and why their average bowel habit is 3 to 5 times per day THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF: — You're on the Paleo diet and not seeing the results you expected — You're struggling with gut issues, constipation, skin rashes, hormone problems, or chronic fatigue— You want to understand how diet connects to root causes of chronic illness — You've been told to avoid grains, legumes, or dairy but never understood the real science — You're dealing with Lyme disease, Hashimoto's, leaky gut, IBS, PCOS, or autoimmune conditionsABOUT DR.

Is Keto Bad For You? The Hidden Truth About Dairy, Coconut Oil & Hormone Disruption | Dr. Brad Montagne
Keto has become one of the most popular diets in the world — but is it actually doing what people think it's doing? In this episode of Your Health Reclaimed Podcast, host Dr. Brad Montagne, a functional medicine practitioner and founder of HealthfullyU, takes a hard look at why keto was designed as a short-term metabolic reset, not a permanent lifestyle, and why so many longtime keto dieters share the same warning signs: red, blotchy skin, hormone imbalances in women, and developmental concerns in children raised on the diet.Dr. Brad unpacks the diet's core promoted foods one by one — butter, ghee, avocado oil, "extra virgin" olive oil, high-fat dairy, fatty fish, feedlot meat, and conventional poultry — and explains where the marketing claims fall apart. He covers why most commercial dairy is difficult for the body to fully absorb or tolerate, how the wrong form of calcium in milk may actually pull minerals from your bones rather than supporting them, and how herbicide residue in animal feed (atrazine and glyphosate) can end up concentrated in the fat we eat. He also shares a firsthand story from a functional medicine conference that revealed how MCT oil and coconut oil affected two physicians' systems in real time — and a patient case that connected coconut oil use to symptoms she'd been told were an unrelated bladder condition.Beyond the fats and proteins, Dr. Brad makes the case that keto's restrictive vegetable list leaves people without enough fiber to properly feed their gut microbiome or enough variety to get a full range of antioxidants — two things he ties directly to long-term gut and hormone health. He closes with why beans, legumes, and starchy vegetables, often demonized on keto, may actually be some of the most important foods for regular, healthy digestion.In this episode, you'll learn:Why keto was never meant to be followed long-termThe hidden issues with dairy, coconut oil, and avocado oil on ketoHow feedlot and commodity-fed meat changes the nutritional pictureWhy women and children may be more affected by keto's downsides than menWhat's missing from a "low-carb vegetables only" approachWhy fiber and antioxidant variety matter more than most diets admitAbout the host: Dr. Brad Montagne is a functional medicine practitioner and founder of HealthfullyU, based in Asheville, North Carolina, where he works with clients nationwide through in-person and distance care.

The Conflict 'Crown Jewel': Who Really Holds the Power in a Fight? (Pt. 4 of 4)
In the final part of this series, Philip De Luca shares what he calls his "crown jewel" — a single insight that took him 30 years to fully figure out, and one he says even world-class anger-management experts have never identified.The question: in any argument, when one person is calm ("front brain") and the other is escalating ("back brain") — who actually holds the power, and why? Phil walks Dr. Brad (and you) through a vivid drug dealer/addict analogy that makes the answer click instantly — and reveals exactly what the escalating person is really looking for (it's not what you think).Then Phil tackles the question every listener has been waiting for: "What do I do when walking away makes them even angrier?" He explains why people escalate the moment you try to leave — using the same biology from Part 3 — and shares (very relatable, occasionally hilarious) real-world examples, from slammed doors to smashed windshields, that you'll probably recognize from your own relationships.Finally, Phil and Dr. Brad discuss the simple, principle-based boundary that can stop a fight cold — without ever needing the other person's cooperation — plus details on Phil's upcoming book and how you can work with him directly.🎯 Key Takeaways:Step 5 ("the Crown Jewel"): who really holds the power in a conflictThe drug dealer/addict analogy that explains every escalationWhy people get MORE upset when you try to walk away — and what it meansReal stories: doors, windows, windshields (you'll relate to at least one)The boundary that ends arguments — without the other person's buy-inHow to tell when you're winning, even when it feels like you're losingPhil's upcoming book and how to book a consultationThis is the episode that ties the whole series together — don't miss it.LINKS & RESOURCES🌐 Dr. Brad / Your Health Reclaimed: healthfullyu.com 📸 Instagram: instagram.com/healthfullyu 📘 Facebook: facebook.com/healthfullyu 🌐 Philip De Luca, LCSW: gobeyondtalktherapist.comSUBSCRIBE to Your Health Reclaimed for more episodes exposing the real, root causes of Lyme disease, chronic illness, and chronic dysfunction — and how to reclaim your health, your relationships, and your peace.If this episode opened your eyes, LIKE this video, COMMENT your biggest takeaway below, and SHARE it with someone who needs to hear it.

The 5-Step System to End Constant Arguments — Fighters vs. Flighters (Pt. 3 of 4)
In Part 3, Philip De Luca finally lays out the first three steps of his game-changing 5-step communication system — the same framework that's helping couples stop fighting in as little as one or two sessions.Step 1 is deceptively simple: good communication can only happen when BOTH people are in "front brain." If even one person has flipped into "back brain," it's not a good time to talk — period.But here's the catch: most people don't recognize the difference between fighters and flighters. Phil and Dr. Brad break down why women tend to "confront" (fighter mode) while men tend to "withdraw" (flighter mode) — including Dr. Brad's unforgettable "white glove" analogy for why a man walking away from conflict isn't cowardice, it's often the healthiest response in the room.Then things get really interesting: Phil explains how chronic conflict creates a literal adrenaline addiction — and why some people unconsciously "provoke" arguments just to get their fix, the same way the body craves a substance during withdrawal. (Dr. Brad connects this to research on pornography addiction and the adrenaline — not arousal — drive behind it.)You'll learn Step 2 (how to recognize, in your own body, the exact moment you or your partner "flips" from front brain to back brain) and Step 3 (the science-backed "detox" — the specific things you can do to calm your nervous system back down, fast). Plus: why "never go to bed angry" often leads to multi-day "text wars," and the real cost — physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual — of chronic unresolved conflict.🎯 Key Takeaways:Step 1: Why both people must be in "front brain" before talkingFighters vs. Flighters — and why this isn't a "him vs. her" problem, it's biologyThe "white glove" analogy: why men withdraw from conflictHow your body gets addicted to the adrenaline rush of arguingStep 2: How to spot the physical signs of "flipping" to back brainStep 3: The science-backed way to actually calm down (and why willpower alone won't work)The hidden costs of "never go to bed angry" — for your body, your relationship, and your faithIf you've ever wondered why the same fight keeps happening over and over — this episode gives you the missing piece.🔗 LINKS & RESOURCES🌐 Dr. Brad / Your Health Reclaimed: healthfullyu.com 📸 Instagram: instagram.com/healthfullyu 📘 Facebook: facebook.com/healthfullyu 🌐 Philip De Luca, LCSW: gobeyondtalktherapist.comSUBSCRIBE to Your Health Reclaimed for more episodes exposing the real, root causes of Lyme disease, chronic illness, and chronic dysfunction — and how to reclaim your health, your relationships, and your peace.If this episode opened your eyes, LIKE this video, COMMENT your biggest takeaway below, and SHARE it with someone who needs to hear it.

Your Diet Is Either Healing You or Keeping You Sick — A 40-Year Functional Doctor's Truth
What if the reason you're still sick has nothing to do with your diagnosis — and everything to do with what's on your plate?In this episode of Your Health Reclaimed, Dr. Brad Montagne shares what four decades of clinical practice with chronically ill patients has confirmed over and over: diet accounts for roughly 50% of whether people heal from chronic illness — or stay stuck in a cycle of symptoms that never fully resolve.He opens with a story that captures the problem perfectly. A patient with Lyme disease kept recovering under Dr. Brad's care — then relapsing. Every time he called, convinced his Lyme had come back. Every time, the real culprit was the same thing: food. Foods he'd been eating his whole life. Foods he had no idea were toxic for his body. It took one memorable phone call — the man was standing in a Subway restaurant, ready to order a meatball marinara — to finally drive the lesson home.That story sets the stage for one of the most practical, science-grounded breakdowns of diet and health you'll find in any podcast. Dr. Brad walks through every macronutrient — carbohydrates, proteins, and oils — explaining not just what to eat or avoid, but why, at a physiological and cellular level.You'll learn why carbohydrates are not the enemy (they're the primary fuel your body was designed to burn), the real difference between simple and complex carbs, and how the Western diet's carb problem is less about carbs themselves and more about proportion, quality, and a cascading inflammatory response that quietly drives blood sugar dysregulation, metabolic syndrome, and ultimately diabetes.You'll hear the shocking story of a 15-year-old Type 1 diabetic whose medical doctors told her not to worry about what she eats — while her blood sugars were hitting 750, three times the lethal level.And you'll hear the reveal that surprises almost everyone: every artificial sweetener on the market — including stevia and xylitol — is a neurotoxin that dysregulates blood sugar and actually increases appetite, completely undoing the "zero calorie" promise.The episode goes deep on oils — why your brain is 60% fat, why omega-3s are critical for nerve function and hormone production, and why the "healthy" oils you're buying at the grocery store (avocado oil, olive oil) are frequently being quietly diluted with cottonseed oil — one of the most toxic and hormone-disrupting substances in the modern food supply.Dr. Brad closes with a preview of his upcoming dietary program — a practical, low-cost resource built on everything covered in this episode.If you've been sick and can't figure out why, this episode is the place to start.🌐 healthfullyu.com 📸 Instagram: @healthfullyu 📘 Facebook: @healthfullyu 📺 Watch on YouTube: Search "Your Health Reclaimed"

Are You Dating a Narcissist — or Just Someone Stuck in 'Back Brain'? (Pt. 2 of 4)
Your cells are listening to your thoughts. In Part 2, Philip De Luca and Dr. Brad Montagne dive into the science of how chronic conflict literally switches on pro-inflammatory, disease-promoting genes — and why the "express yourself" model isn't just bad for your relationship, it's bad for your DNA.Phil shares a wild story from his work doing deliverance ministry in Mexico — and how laughter completely defused a situation that "professional" approaches couldn't touch. From there, he introduces his upcoming book, Stop Talking and Start Communicating, and explains his holistic, whole-person approach — one that's so effective, often only ONE partner needs to apply it for the relationship to change.Then comes one of the most requested topics in relationships today: narcissism. Phil explains why "everyone is a narcissist" right now (just like "everyone was codependent" a decade ago, and "everyone was bipolar" before that) — and gives you the real test for telling the difference between a true Narcissistic Personality Disorder and someone who's simply stuck in a "back brain" flare-up (which is fixable).You'll also hear about Dr. Porges' Polyvagal Theory — the science showing that when we're upset, we ALL lose the ability to accurately judge a situation, "regardless of our intelligence level" — and a faith-based perspective on why the "express yourself, never go to bed angry" model isn't actually biblical, including a powerful story from Dr. Brad's own wedding.🎯 Key Takeaways:How chronic conflict "switches on" inflammatory genes in real timePhil's new book: Stop Talking and Start CommunicatingWhy one person can often fix a relationship — without the other "cooperating"True narcissism vs. a normal (but damaging) "back brain" flare-upDr. Porges' Polyvagal Theory: why upset people "become fools," regardless of IQA Christian perspective on conflict, servant leadership, and what real peace looks likeWhether you're dealing with a partner who shuts down, blows up, or you're wondering if YOU might be the one stuck in back brain — this episode will reframe how you see every relationship in your life.LINKS & RESOURCES🌐 Dr. Brad / Your Health Reclaimed: healthfullyu.com 📸 Instagram: instagram.com/healthfullyu 📘 Facebook: facebook.com/healthfullyu 🌐 Philip De Luca, LCSW: gobeyondtalktherapist.comSUBSCRIBE to Your Health Reclaimed for more episodes exposing the real, root causes of Lyme disease, chronic illness, and chronic dysfunction — and how to reclaim your health, your relationships, and your peace.If this episode opened your eyes, LIKE this video, COMMENT your biggest takeaway below, and SHARE it with someone who needs to hear it.

Why 'Talking It Through' Doesn't Work: The Brain Science Behind Every Fight (Pt. 1 of 4)
For 50 years, marriage counselors have told couples to talk it through, express their feelings, and never go to bed angry. Licensed Clinical Social Worker Philip De Luca tried exactly that with his very first clients back in 1977 — and watched it fail, again and again, leaving couples worse off than before.In Part 1 of this 4-part conversation, Phil joins Dr. Brad Montagne to reveal where the "express yourself" communication model actually came from (hint: it's not science — it's the 1960s "let it all hang out" movement), and why it sets couples up for a "funnel" — or as Dr. Brad calls it, a "gauntlet" — of escalating conflict that ends in what Phil calls the dead zone: the point where there's no love left.Then the conversation goes deep into the body: Dr. Brad explains the HPA axis (hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis) and how stress — relational, chemical, physical — accumulates until "the straw breaks the camel's back," dysregulating your hormones, blood sugar, and inflammation. Phil connects this to the "amygdala hijack," the moment your blood flow shifts from your rational front brain to your reptilian back brain — and why, once that happens, "talking it through" is biologically impossible.You'll also hear the eye-opening numbers: chronic relational conflict has been linked to premature aging of 9–17 years, a 2000% increase in heart attack risk, and a 3000% increase in cancer risk — plus how neuroplasticity and epigenetics mean your brain and your genes are being shaped, for better or worse, by every argument you have.🎯 Key Takeaways:The real (non-scientific) origin of "talk it through" adviceThe "gauntlet": how couples get pushed into worse and worse conflictThe HPA axis, inflammation, and why stress isn't "one size fits all"Amygdala hijack: front brain vs. back brain, explained simplyThe shocking health costs of chronic conflict (aging, heart disease, cancer risk)How neuroplasticity and epigenetics are rewiring your brain and body right nowIf you've ever walked away from an argument feeling like you "did everything right" and it still got worse — this episode explains exactly why, and sets up the science behind the 5-step solution coming in Parts 2–4.🔗 LINKS & RESOURCES🌐 Dr. Brad / Your Health Reclaimed: healthfullyu.com 📸 Instagram: instagram.com/healthfullyu 📘 Facebook: facebook.com/healthfullyu 🌐 Philip De Luca, LCSW: gobeyondtalktherapist.comSUBSCRIBE to Your Health Reclaimed for more episodes exposing the real, root causes of Lyme disease, chronic illness, and chronic dysfunction — and how to reclaim your health, your relationships, and your peace.If this episode opened your eyes, LIKE this video, COMMENT your biggest takeaway below, and SHARE it with someone who needs to hear it.

Diet, Gallbladder Crisis & the 24-Hour Natural Recovery: Why Your Diet Is Behind Virtually Every Health Failure | Dr. Brad Montagne
If you've ever been told you need gallbladder surgery — or if you've tried keto, carnivore, or paleo and wondered why you still feel terrible — this episode is going to change how you see your own health.In this solo episode, Dr. Brad Montagne walks through one of the most striking clinical cases of his 40-year career: a patient in acute right-sided abdominal pain called him from over a thousand miles away, desperate and in crisis. A year earlier, the same problem had resulted in a two-week hospital stay, tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills, and a push to remove the gallbladder. The patient had refused — and the stones were cleared naturally. But now the same symptoms were back.Through careful remote evaluation, Dr. Brad identified the real trigger: a meal of smoked turkey tails and ribs. Smoked food, like Candida and fungal infections, produces acetylaldehyde — a toxin seven times more potent than formaldehyde. Paired with ibuprofen (which shuts down all four of the body's primary detox organs and blocks the regeneration of glutathione), the system had no way to clear the toxic load. Pain escalated. And then the prescribed opioid pain medications — codeine with acetaminophen and Percocet — made everything dramatically worse: opioids cause direct bile duct spasms, shutting down blood supply and intensifying the very pain they were prescribed to relieve.Once the patient understood what was happening, stopped the pain medications, and started targeted supplements, the pain resolved within 24 hours. They went back to work the next day.Two-week hospital stay vs. 24 hours. Fifty thousand dollars vs. a few hundred. The contrast speaks for itself.But Dr. Brad doesn't stop at the case study. He connects this to the broader dietary crisis in America, calling out three of the most popular diet trends — keto, paleo, and carnivore — with clinical evidence of the damage they cause: hormone dysregulation, blood sugar collapse, adrenal failure, gut microbiome destruction, and neurological impairment in children. He explains why every hormone in your body is built from fat and cholesterol, and what happens when fad diets disrupt that foundation. He explains how the same dietary failures that destroy your hormones also fail to build cholesterol-based insulation in your nervous system — setting the stage for cognitive decline and dementia.Hippocrates said it 2,400 years ago: disease starts in the gut. Dr. Brad has been proving it for four decades.This episode also includes a preview of Dr. Brad's upcoming dietary program — the most comprehensive diet guide he has ever created, with clear practical guidance on what to eat, why it matters, and how to make the transition without guesswork.Also available on YouTube — search "Your Health Reclaimed."

Why Successful People Are Masters of Delayed Gratification — And How to Stop Living for Dopamine | Dr. Jay LaGuardia
When Dr. Brad walked into Moscow's Red Square just after the Berlin Wall fell, he felt something no diagnostic test can measure: the weight of collective oppression pressing him toward the ground. That experience taught him something about energy — and about the invisible forces that shape not just our environments, but our bodies, our relationships, and our capacity to heal.Part 2 of this landmark conversation between Dr. Brad Montagne and Dr. Jay LaGuardia picks up where the quantum physics discussion left off — and takes it somewhere even more personal.Dr. Jay opens with a truth that most people are only beginning to confront: the majority of us live reactively. We respond to whatever crisis is loudest. We chase short-term fixes. We are terrible, as a culture, at delayed gratification. And the research is unambiguous — every genuinely successful person Dr. Jay has encountered in 30 years has one thing in common: they mastered the long game. They put in the time, stayed the path, and trusted the process even when results weren't immediate. In a world wired to deliver the next dopamine hit in seconds, that capacity has become almost revolutionary.This episode also tackles a topic rarely addressed on health podcasts: the quantum dimension of sexual integrity. Dr. Brad describes — through a lens of molecular physiology — how every sexual encounter involves an energetic exchange, a literal transfer of vibrational data between two people. Without commitment and genuine connection, this becomes a source of fragmentation rather than wholeness. It's a conversation that audiences across age groups — from college students to retirees — have found unexpectedly profound.When Dr. Jay defines success, his answer has nothing to do with net worth. Success, to him, is a life of passion and purpose — one where the impact you had on people is evident in who shows up when your time is done. Not what's in the estate. Who's at the funeral. He challenges every listener to ask themselves: if someone turned to a relative at my casket and said "they lived a life well lived" — what would that actually need to look like?The conversation moves through the concept of true riches (spoiler: it's your relationships and your health — neither of which can be measured in dollars), the power of creating space for self-reflection in a world that doesn't encourage it, and the discovery-based coaching methodology Dr. Jay uses — built on leading questions that help people define their own truth rather than having someone else's beliefs imposed on them.And it closes on one of the most disarming observations Dr. Brad has ever offered: sometimes the greatest growing season of our lives is raising children, because it's the only experience that repeatedly shatters your most cherished ideas and forces you to build something better.If you've been asking what success really means, what riches actually look like, or why you keep attracting the things you say you don't want — this episode has your answer.Also on YouTube — search "Your Health Reclaimed Podcast" or visit healthfullyu.com.Key topics: delayed gratification, success mindset, riches of relationships, self-reflection, sowing and reaping, vibrational attraction, legacy, reactive vs. proactive living, unconditional love, leading questions coaching, personal transformation.Connect with Dr. Jay LaGuardia: https://www.powerpassionprosperity.com/ | [email protected] with Dr. Brad : https://healthfullyu.com

The Root Cause of Chronic Illness Modern Medicine Ignores: Toxins, Beliefs & Quantum Healing | Dr. Jay LaGuardia
What if the doctor's office isn't where your healing actually begins?In Part 1 of this powerful two-part conversation on Your Health Reclaimed Podcast, Dr. Brad Montagne sits down with Dr. Jay LaGuardia — physician, motivational speaker, author, and transformational coach with over 30 years of experience — to tackle the real root causes of chronic illness, poor health, and the patterns that keep people stuck.Dr. Jay opens with a bold claim: the #1 contributor to the chronic health conditions devastating American families today is the toxic environment in which we live. That means the food on your plate, the water in your tap, the air you breathe, the synthetic fabrics against your skin, and the microplastics that have infiltrated every part of the food chain. The environment has changed radically in the last 50 to 75 years — and human health has been in freefall as a result.But Dr. Brad pushes the conversation deeper. Environmental toxins may be the physical mechanism — but what about the belief systems that determine whether you'll do anything about it? As a child up until the age of nine, 90% of your experiences are processed through theta brainwaves, the frequency at which the subconscious mind is most open to suggestion. Everything your parents, teachers, doctors, and society told you — about health, about self-worth, about what's possible — got hardwired into your nervous system before you were old enough to evaluate it.The good news, as Dr. Jay explains with unmistakable optimism, is that the brain is neuroplastic. You can change your beliefs. And when you change your beliefs, you change your life — including your physical health.This episode also examines the emotional intelligence crisis that's quietly making it impossible for most people to have a rational conversation, let alone change a deeply held belief. When you're operating from the limbic system — the emotional brain — you literally inhibit the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that handles logic, reason, and adult decision-making. And Dr. Jay argues that emotional intelligence is currently the lowest it has ever been in American society.The conversation moves into quantum physics — the science of vibrational energy, local and non-local consciousness, and the remarkable truth that every cell in your body vibrates at a specific frequency that can be altered by your thoughts, your beliefs, and your state of being. Dr. Jay explains it this way: if you believe you are not worthy of health, you will create the circumstances to make that your reality. If you believe you deserve to be healthy, wealthy, and surrounded by great relationships — you'll create those circumstances instead.This isn't wishful thinking. It's physics.If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right and still not healing, this episode will introduce you to the layer of the problem that almost no one in conventional medicine is addressing.Also on YouTube — search "Your Health Reclaimed Podcast" or visit healthfullyu.com.Key topics: environmental toxins, chronic illness, subconscious belief programming, theta brainwaves, neuroplasticity, emotional intelligence, quantum physics, vibrational healing, self-love, limiting beliefs, mind-body connection.Connect with Dr. Jay LaGuardia: https://www.powerpassionprosperity.com/ | [email protected] with Dr. Brad: https://healthfullyu.com

The Nursing Home Truth Nobody Tells You (Until It's Too Late) | Long-Term Care, Caregiver Burnout & Estate Protection with Lindsay Friedman
Are you prepared for the long-term care conversation your family hasn't had yet?Most people don't think about nursing homes, home health aides, or care planning until they're in a full-blown crisis — and that's exactly when the system takes advantage of you. In this episode of Your Health Reclaimed, Dr. Brad Montagne welcomes Lindsay Friedman, founder of LT Care Nav and Care Bloom, for a raw and deeply important conversation about what really happens inside long-term care facilities — and what families can do right now to protect their loved ones.Lindsay has spent 25 years working across every level of the eldercare spectrum — as a hands-on caregiver, a senior care advisor, and now an advocate helping families navigate the financial and emotional maze of long-term care planning.

Forgiveness Was the Diet That Changed Everything: 100 lbs Lost Through Healing, Not Willpower | Matt Melvin Ep. 2
Therapy wasn't working. The diet plans weren't sticking. The weight wouldn't move.And then Matt Melvin walked into a room full of men who were willing to cry. And everything changed.In Part 2 of this powerful conversation on Your Health Reclaimed, Dr. Brad Montagne and Matt Melvin pick up where they left off — going deeper into the spiritual and emotional breakthroughs that powered Matt's 100-pound transformation. This isn't a weight loss story. It's a healing story. And the difference matters enormously.Matt had spent years in therapy that never reached the root. What finally cracked him open was a Christian men's weekend in February 2022 — where he watched other men drop their armor and share vulnerably about their lives on the "carpet." Seeing himself in their stories unlocked something no clinical intervention had touched. He began doing the same. And the healing began.Dr. Brad connects this emotional breakthrough to something deeply physiological: when we hold onto anger, resentment, and unforgiveness, we keep our nervous system locked in a chronic stress response. That response drives cortisol, inflammation, and fat storage — and no amount of clean eating can fully override it. Forgiveness, in this framework, isn't just spiritual wisdom. It's metabolic medicine.The episode also explores the hard science behind why fasting, journaling, prayer, and movement all compounded together to produce 100 pounds of weight loss in under a year. Dr. Brad breaks down why fasting without proper recovery — something Matt experienced painfully in prison — can backfire, and how strategic fasting combined with dietary changes creates a completely different outcome on the outside.Faith threads through this entire episode. Dr. Brad shares one of the most extraordinary stories from his 30+ years of prison ministry. Matt reflects on how solitary confinement became a spiritual classroom — where reading Scripture, praying, and fasting without the distractions of the outside world sharpened him in ways that still carry him today.The episode closes with a message every man needs to hear: the suicide rate among men is five times higher than women. Isolation kills. Vulnerability heals. And finding your tribe — a real, honest, faith-grounded community of men willing to go deep — may be the most important health intervention available.Key topics in this episode:Why forgiveness is the #1 lever for physical transformationThe Christian men's group using "carpet work" for deep healingDr. Brad's most dramatic prison ministry momentHow fasting + prayer + diet compounded to produce 100 lbs lost in a yearThe suicide crisis among men — and what to do about itWhy the Holy Spirit is essential to understanding ScriptureAgent Orange, autism, vaccines, and the glutathione-acetaminophen connection🎥 Also on YouTube — search "Your Health Reclaimed Podcast" for the full video episode.Connect with Matt: www.bulliedbehindbars.com | @bulliedbehindbars Connect with Dr. Brad: www.healthfullyu.com | @healthfullyu

He Was Bullied Since Childhood, Went to Prison Twice & Gained 100 lbs — Here's What Was Really Going On | Matt Melvin Ep. 1
Most people think chronic illness, obesity, and self-destructive behavior are problems of willpower or genetics. They're wrong.In this deeply honest first episode of Your Health Reclaimed, Dr. Brad Montagne sits down with Matt Melvin — the man behind Bullied Behind Bars — for a conversation that strips away the comfortable narratives around health and gets to what's really driving the epidemic of chronic illness in America: unhealed childhood trauma.Matt's story begins in Tingsboro, Massachusetts, where bullying started young. It escalated when his family relocated to rural Vermont at age 7 — a move that placed him in a tightly closed community where outsiders simply weren't accepted. With no tribe, no support, a father emotionally hollowed out by Vietnam combat and raised by a military general, and a mother stuck in a victim role, Matt grew up in what therapists call the "drama triangle." He was always the villain.The body keeps score. By grade school, Matt was already using food — carbs, fried food, desserts, zero vegetables — as his primary emotional release. The weight climbed. The bullying got worse. The sense of worthlessness deepened. And without the tools to process any of it, the cycle fed itself for decades.Dr. Brad brings his 40 years of clinical and ministry experience to this conversation, connecting the dots between toxic food, damaged cell membranes, inflammatory diets, and the neurological impact of early trauma. He explains why deep-fried, low-quality protein is like building your body's foundation with crumbling concrete — and why no amount of willpower can overcome a biology that's been starved of real nutrition.The episode also explores the generational roots of Matt's struggles: his father's exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam, the connection between toxic chemical exposure and autism spectrum disorders, and how gut health at conception shapes the brain development of children. This isn't blame — it's biology. And understanding it is the first step to breaking the cycle.By the end of this episode, you'll see why so many people who struggle with weight, self-worth, and chronic illness aren't broken — they're responding normally to abnormal circumstances they were never given the tools to heal.Key topics covered:How childhood bullying reshapes belief systems, self-worth, and physical healthThe emotional and biological roots of food addiction and obesityWhy toxic oils, fried food, and carb-heavy diets create cellular inflammationThe link between Agent Orange, autism, and gut healthHow the drama triangle (hero/victim/villain) plays out in family systemsWhy forgiveness — not dieting — was the first step toward Matt's 100-lb weight loss🎥 Also available on YouTube — search "Your Health Reclaimed Podcast" to watch the full video episode.Connect with Matt: www.bulliedbehindbars.com | @bulliedbehindbars Connect with Dr. Brad: www.healthfullyu.com | @healthfullyu

Why Lyme Disease Patients Don't Heal: Co-Infections, Gut Collapse, and the 40-Year Protocol That Works | Dr. Brad Montagne
In honor of Lyme Disease Awareness Month, Dr. Brad Montagne delivers one of the most comprehensive — and sobering — breakdowns of why the vast majority of people suffering from Lyme disease never fully recover. And the answer, he explains, rarely has to do with the Lyme bacteria itself.The root of the problem, as Dr. Brad sees it, is a fundamental misunderstanding of what Lyme disease actually is. Most patients and practitioners assume: eliminate Borrelia, eliminate suffering. But Lyme disease is not a single infection. It travels with co-infections — Ehrlichia, Rickettsia, and Babesia among them — each of which attacks a different system in the body. Babesia alone destroys red blood cells from the inside, gutting the body's ability to carry, transport, and deliver oxygen. And Babesia, Dr. Brad explains, may be more common than Lyme disease itself.Then there's the gut. Seventy-five percent of the immune system resides in the gut — and in virtually every chronic Lyme case, the gut is under siege. H. pylori infections block stomach acid production. Candida and fungal overgrowths produce acetaldehyde, a compound seven times more toxic than formaldehyde. Pathogenic microbes ferment and rot food instead of digesting it. And as the gut lining degrades, LPS — lipopolysaccharides from dying bacterial cell walls — flood the bloodstream, triggering systemic autoimmune responses that attack the body's own tissues.The microvilli in the gut lining — which increase surface area 400-fold — can atrophy to near nothing within 24 hours under this kind of assault. Food intolerances compound the problem, contributing to nearly half of all symptoms in chronic Lyme patients. Yet standard testing for those intolerances is only 2–3% accurate.As this toxic load overwhelms detoxification pathways in the gut, liver, and colon, hormonal dysregulation follows. And when hormones — the body's global regulatory system — stop working, metabolism collapses at the cellular level. Brain fog, tissue destruction, and progressive systemic decline become the daily reality.The reason no single practitioner can fix this, Dr. Brad explains, is because treating one piece while ignoring the others allows each intervention to cancel out the last. The only path forward is addressing all of these systems simultaneously — and that is precisely what his protocol is designed to do.With over four decades of clinical experience and a greater than 90% success rate with patients who had previously failed every specialist they tried, Dr. Brad is not speaking theoretically. He has lived through chronic illness himself and brought thousands of patients through it.KEY TAKEAWAYS:• Lyme disease is never a single infection — co-infections are often the bigger problem• Babesia and gut pathogens may cause more damage than Borrelia itself• Food intolerances contribute to nearly half of all Lyme symptoms• Leaky gut, LPS, and acetaldehyde drive systemic autoimmunity• No piecemeal treatment will work — everything must be addressed togetherReady to break the cycle?

From State Mental Hospital to Drug-Free Recovery: Ioannis Skiotes' 6-Point Bipolar Survival Method
What does it look like when the treatment makes the illness worse? In this deeply personal and eye-opening episode of the Your Health Reclaimed Podcast, Dr. Brad Montagne welcomes Ioannis Skiotes — a first-generation Greek-American who was institutionalized at 25 with severe Bipolar Type 1 and spent two years in a state mental hospital being treated with the wrong psychiatric medications for illnesses he didn't even have.Ioannis pulls no punches about what life inside a state institution truly looks like: exponential drug side effects that hit like a freight train four times a day, forced injections when he refused medications, physical abuse from security staff, and a complete disconnection from any meaningful treatment. As one doctor told him years later after reviewing his file — he had been treated for illnesses that, by modern medical standards, didn't even exist.But this is not a story of defeat. It is a story of extraordinary resilience.Ioannis shares the 6-Point Faith-Based Daily Method he developed to manage his bipolar disorder without psychiatric drugs — a system built on common sense, spiritual practice, and years of lived experience. From starting each morning prayerful, grateful, and hopeful, to using an ancient Greek phrase from scripture to repel intrusive negative thoughts, his method is both practical and deeply human.Dr. Brad and Ioannis also dig into the lifestyle factors that serve as early warning signs of relapse — disrupted sleep and poor diet are almost always the first dominoes to fall before a depressive episode. They discuss the science of epigenetics (the study of how lifestyle influences genetic expression), the role heredity plays, and why so many people — even those with wealth and the best medical care — still struggle with mental illness.KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:• Bipolar Type 1 requires hospitalization — understanding the spectrum matters• Combining psychiatric drugs creates exponential (not additive) side effects• 'You're never cured' — the mindset shift that prevents relapse• Diet and sleep are the first symptoms to monitor as early warning signals• A 6-step daily routine can serve as powerful armor against depressive episodes• Faith, positivity, and community can be as powerful as any pharmaceuticalWhether you or a loved one are navigating bipolar disorder, depression, or any chronic mental health challenge, this episode offers genuine hope grounded in real survival.Connect with Ioannis Skiotes: ioannisskiotes.com | @skiotes on Instagram | facebook.com/iskiotesConnect with Dr. Brad Montagne: healthfullyu.comNew episodes every Monday & Thursday.

Ep. 1: How Childhood Trauma & Limiting Beliefs Keep You Sick – Zac Russell
Episode 1 of Your Health Reclaimed Podcast explores the hidden forces that keep us stuck in health and emotional struggles. Dr. Brad Montagne sits down with transformational coach Zac Russell to unpack how early childhood experiences shape our beliefs and physical well-being. Zac introduces the ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) framework and explains how trauma and fear of abandonment during ages 3–5 program our subconscious minds. They discuss the narcissism spectrum, suggesting that “everybody is a narcissist” to some degree, and examine how conditional love in childhood affects us. Zac and Dr. Brad use analogies like the sun to illustrate how we confuse beliefs with reality, and even discuss how propaganda and social media manipulate our minds.Listeners will learn how limiting beliefs from childhood can lead to chronic anxiety, depression, and even physical illness. Dr. Brad shares personal stories from his work with prisoners and refugees to illustrate how early trauma shows up later in life. Zac explains that identifying and questioning these old narratives is the first step toward healing. Together, they make a compelling case that many health issues trace back to unchallenged childhood programming.Guest Spotlight: Zac Russell is a mental health coach and trauma transformation guide.

The Root Cause Nobody Is Testing For: Candida, Leaky Gut & 40 Years of Clinical Truth with Dr. Brad Montagne
If you've spent years cycling through doctors, protocols, and diagnoses without real answers, this episode may be the most important conversation you've ever heard.Dr. Brad Montagne — founder of Your Health Reclaimed and a functional wellness practitioner with over four decades of clinical experience — makes a bold, evidence-backed claim: in 40 years and thousands of patient cases, he has never seen a case of chronic illness where Candida overgrowth and leaky gut were not the root cause. Not once.In this episode, Dr. Brad dismantles the myths keeping chronic illness patients stuck — including why Lyme disease lab tests are as low as 0–20% accurate, why 40% of peer-reviewed scientific studies contain statistically distorted results, and why the conventional medical system has not updated its educational framework for chronic disease since 1910.He walks through the physiology of how the gut wall breaks down — from healthy microvilli and protective mucus layers to atrophied villi, collapsed microbial balance, and the catastrophic "Mack truck of toxicity" that floods the bloodstream when tight junctions fail entirely. You'll understand, possibly for the first time, exactly why your liver is overwhelmed, your hormones are dysregulated, and your immune system is exhausted.Dr. Brad also explains the four forms of Candida — yeast, fungal, fungal parasite, and mold — and why chitin, the same material that armors beetles and shrimp, makes Candida biologically immune to your body's defense systems. This is not a conversation about probiotics and sugar-free diets. This is root-cause clinical medicine at its most direct.You'll also hear why Louis Pasteur — the father of germ theory — admitted on his deathbed that his opponent Claude Bernard was right all along: it's not the germ, it's the terrain. The state of your body determines whether disease takes hold. That single paradigm shift changes everything about how you approach healing.This episode is for anyone dealing with chronic fatigue, autoimmune conditions, unexplained symptoms, Lyme disease, gut issues, or years of failed treatment.

Why Your Worst Coping Habits Have Value — And How Renaturing Finally Sets You Free | Dr. Brad & Betsy Kudlinski
You've been trying to stop the anger, the addiction, the numbing, the people-pleasing. You've tried willpower. You've tried therapy. You've maybe even tried just pretending it isn't there.And it keeps coming back.In the final installment of this landmark three-part series on the HealthfullyU Podcast, Dr. Brad Montagne and trauma recovery coach Betsy Kudlinski reveal the most important — and most overlooked — truth about behavioral and emotional healing: your coping mechanisms exist for a reason. They once kept you alive. And until you honor that purpose, you cannot truly release them.Drawing on one of the most vivid and unexpected metaphors in the series — a bald-faced hornet nest discovered during Hurricane Helene recovery — Betsy explains how the things we hate most about ourselves often serve the same ecological role as the insects we want to exterminate: protection, purpose, and an irreplaceable function in our inner ecosystem.In this episode you'll discover:🌿 Why every coping habit — addiction, anger, freeze, fawn — is a former survival strategy that never got a retirement notice🌿 Why "just stopping" doesn't work, and why you always end up shuffling sideways to a new coping strategy instead of healing🌿 The neurological truth about triggers and reflexes: how maladaptive responses that worked once keep firing long after they're needed🌿 How Betsy's approach gently helps people "soften the need for the reflex" — not through force, but through resolution🌿 Why trust — especially self-trust — is the most essential ingredient in healing (and why decades of overriding our instincts destroys it)🌿 The "invitation-response" model of healing: seeing every interaction, every challenge, every trauma as a conversation rather than an event🌿 Dr. Brad's profound closing reflection on Agape love and why the greatest serve the least — and what this means for how we help others healWhether you're a therapist, a coach, someone on their own healing journey, or simply someone who is tired of fighting themselves — this episode offers a new framework: one built on grace, curiosity, and the radical wisdom already living inside your body.🎙️ Guest: Betsy Kudlinski | [email protected] | betsykudlinski.com🩺 Host: Dr. Brad Montagne | healthfullyu.com | YT @yourhealthreclaimed📲 Follow Betsy: FB & Bluesky @betsykudlinski | YT @RenaturingwithBetsyKSubscribe to HealthfullyU on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube for new episodes every Monday and Thursday.

The Zone of Confidence: Gentle Nervous System Healing That Actually Works (Not What You Think) | Dr. Brad & Betsy Kudlinski
Most approaches to trauma and mental health healing have one major flaw: they push too hard, too fast — and in doing so, they reinforce the exact patterns they're trying to heal.In Part 2 of this transformative conversation on the HealthfullyU Podcast, Dr. Brad Montagne and trauma recovery coach Betsy Kudlinski explore the nervous system with a depth and compassion rarely found in conventional therapy — and reveal why the gentlest approach is also the most powerful.At the center of this episode is Betsy's key concept: the "Zone of Confidence" — her reframing of the clinical "window of tolerance." Unlike the sterile, diagnostic language of most mental health frameworks, the Zone of Confidence is a lived, felt experience: the range within which your nervous system is still present, still engaged, still capable of making good decisions — even while touching difficult material.In this episode you'll learn:🧠 Why most people can no longer sit quietly without a screen — and what that reveals about the state of their nervous system🧠 How working WITHIN your nervous system's actual capacity (not the one you wish you had) creates lasting neural change🧠 Why forcing healing — through emotional catharsis, intensive therapy marathons, or sheer willpower — often just reinforces old patterns🧠 The "presence zone" vs. the "comfort zone": why trauma work doesn't have to be comfortable to be effective🧠 Why the DSM is better understood as an insurance handbook than a healing tool — and how diagnosis can actually strip people of their agency to change🧠 The horse training parallel: why the same gentle, progressive process used to train a horse without trauma creates profound, permanent neural change in humans🧠 Why "trauma happens in relationship — and so it heals in relationship"Betsy draws on decades of working with horses, herds, and animals of all kinds to read human nervous systems with extraordinary precision. This episode is essential listening for anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or who has tried and failed to "get over" difficult past experiences.🎙️ Guest: Betsy Kudlinski | [email protected] | betsykudlinski.com🩺 Host: Dr. Brad Montagne | healthfullyu.com | YT @yourhealthreclaimed📲 Follow Betsy: FB & Bluesky @betsykudlinski | YT @RenaturingwithBetsyKNew episodes every Monday and Thursday on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.

Renaturing: How Our Animal Instincts Hold the Key to Healing Chronic Illness & Trauma | Dr. Brad & Betsy Kudlinski
What if everything modern medicine has been missing about chronic illness, trauma, and mental health dysfunction could be found in the way animals live, eat, move, and heal?In this groundbreaking first episode of the HealthfullyU Podcast, host Dr. Brad Montagne sits down with Betsy Kudlinski — a trauma recovery coach with over 30 years of professional animal experience — to introduce a concept she calls "Renaturing": the radical idea that returning to our animal nature is the most direct path to lasting health.Betsy brings a one-of-a-kind lens to healing. Having worked with pets, zoo animals, horses, farm animals, and herds of all kinds, she now applies the same observational skills to the human nervous system. Her work draws on somatic experiencing — a body-based trauma modality — to help people stop overriding their body's natural intelligence and start healing from the inside out.In this episode, you'll discover:🐾 Why we are animals pretending we're not — and why that pretense is making us sick🐾 How herd animals like deer, wolves, and horses live in extended family structures that mirror healthy human community (and what we've lost)🐾 What watching a deer eat in the wild can teach us about the destruction of monochromatic, repetitive diets🐾 The ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) study — and why one caring adult can counteract enormous childhood trauma🐾 The "prefrontal cortex running a meat robot" problem: why treating your body like a machine it should obey is a root cause of breakdown🐾 Dr. Brad's incredible story of raising championship horse competitors at age 13 — and what that connection reveals about healingDr. Brad also shares a deeply personal insight: decades of prison ministry gave him a first-row seat to the effects of childhood trauma — and a profound understanding of what it takes to build trust, confidence, and self-worth from the ground up.Whether you're struggling with chronic illness, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, or simply feel disconnected from your body and community, this episode will shift the way you see yourself — and your path to wellness.🎙️ Guest: Betsy Kudlinski | [email protected] | betsykudlinski.com🩺 Host: Dr. Brad Montagne | healthfullyu.com | YT @yourhealthreclaimed📲 Follow Betsy: FB & Bluesky @betsykudlinski | YT @RenaturingwithBetsyKSubscribe to HealthfullyU on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube for new episodes every Monday and Thursday.

Why Healing Never Lasts: Subconscious Root Causes, Inner Child Work & the Identity Shift That Changes Everything | Dr. Jennifer Schluter Pt. 2
In this deeply transformative second episode of the HealthfullyU Podcast, Dr. Brad Montagne and Dr. Jennifer Schluter continue their groundbreaking dialogue — moving from the physical roots of disease into the subconscious landscape where true, lasting healing actually happens.Dr. Jennifer breaks down the powerful tools of hypnotherapy that she uses to help clients release trauma stored in the body: inner child healing, memory reconsolidation, and direct conversation with the "emotion" or energetic wound within the body. She explains why healing is like peeling an onion — sometimes one session is enough, but sometimes it takes ten — and why the most critical step is always identifying and releasing the root cause, not just managing symptoms.The episode takes a profound turn when the pair explore the identity transformation required for lasting healing. "Who are you without your illness? Who are you without your trauma?" Dr. Jennifer asks — because until a person steps into their new identity, old patterns and pain tend to resurface.Dr. Brad brings clinical depth to the conversation, explaining the devastating impact of narcissistic stress — one of the most damaging yet least discussed stressors in modern life — and how stress of all kinds (chemical, physical, relational, narcissistic) mathematically accumulates until the body's hormonal systems collapse.Together they explore the often-overlooked differences in how men and women restore self-worth, the creative and relational nature of the feminine spirit, and how genuine intimacy and affirmation from a caring partner can seal healing in a way that no therapy alone can fully replicate.This is an episode for anyone who has tried everything — supplements, surgery, therapy — and still feels stuck. The answer may not be in adding more treatments, but in going deeper to where the root truly lives.KEY THEMES: Inner child work and memory reconsolidation in hypnotherapy | The "who are you without your illness" identity shift | Narcissistic stress and hormonal collapse | How men and women rebuild self-worth differently | The power of affirmation in clinical healing | Relational intimacy as a healing environment | Women as creators and relaters | Practical tools for whole-person healingCONNECT WITH OUR GUESTS:Dr. Brad Montagne — healthfullyu.comDr. Jennifer Schluter — mindyoursubconscious.comNew episodes every Monday and Thursday.

The Hidden Root Cause of Endometriosis: Ancestral Trauma, Hormonal Chaos & Healing the Womb | Dr. Jennifer Schluter
In this landmark episode of the HealthfullyU Podcast, host Dr. Brad Montagne is joined by Dr. Jennifer Schluter — certified hypnotherapist and PhD-holding spiritual healing expert from Zimbabwe — for a profound, multi-layered conversation about one of the most misunderstood women's health conditions of our time: endometriosis. Dr. Jennifer's doctoral dissertation focused on the emotional and ancestral root causes of endometriosis — and her findings are nothing short of revolutionary. In her research, 3 out of 5 women with endometriosis carried root causes that traced back not to their own lives, but to generations of women before them: grandmothers, great-grandmothers, and maternal ancestors who were silenced, violated, betrayed, or suppressed. This trauma, she discovered, is stored in the DNA and manifests physically in the womb. Together, Dr. Brad and Dr. Jennifer bridge the gap between cutting-edge functional medicine and deep subconscious healing — revealing why treating the physical alone is rarely enough. KEY TOPICS COVERED:• The clinical anatomy of endometriosis and why it creates a hormonal and inflammatory "time bomb"• How chronic stress hijacks your adrenal glands, strips your body of pregnenolone and DHEA, and starves your reproductive tissues of hormones• The five emotional root-cause themes of endometriosis: motherhood, sexual trauma, creativity, feminine energy, and ancestral wounds• How hypnotherapy can reach these buried root causes — and why three out of five cases traced back to ancestral trauma• The spiritual and biblical framework for generational healing — and how it mirrors the findings of modern subconscious therapy• Why endometriosis tissues have even been found in the wrist — and what this means for understanding this condition• How to begin addressing root causes at ALL levels (physical, emotional, spiritual) for lasting healing ABOUT YOUR HOSTS:Dr. Brad Montagne is an integrative health practitioner with over four decades of experience helping patients uncover the root causes of chronic illness.
