    78. Interplay Between Infections, Lyme Disease, and Inflammation with Dr. Jaquel Patterson

    A tick can be smaller than a poppy seed, a lab can read “normal,” and you can still feel like your body is on fire. I sit down with Dr. Jaquel Patterson, a nationally recognized naturopathic and functional medicine physician and founder of Fairfield Family Health, to unpack the real-world links between infections, Lyme disease, and chronic inflammation, especially for people who’ve been told they’re fine while they’re clearly not.We talk through why chronic infections can mimic autoimmune disease, what “molecular mimicry” means in plain language, and why Lyme earns the nickname “the great imitator.” Dr. Patterson breaks down common myths about tick bites, why false-negative Lyme tests happen, how co-infections like Babesia and Bartonella complicate symptoms, and what red flags to watch for like migrating joint pain, fatigue, dizziness, headaches, ringing ears, tingling sensations, brain fog, and sudden-onset anxiety. We also get practical about labs that often get overlooked: ferritin and iron status, vitamin D, hormones, and nutrient deficiencies that can worsen inflammation and recovery._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Dr. Jaquel Patterson, ND, MBA, a nationally recognized leader in naturopathic and functional medicine.

    77: "Growing Faces beyond teeth: The Pediatric Dentist's Guide to Sleep, Growth and Development" with Dr. Rafif Tayara

    Crooked teeth, big emotions, bedwetting, restless nights, constant “stuffy nose” … what if those aren’t random kid quirks, but one connected breathing story? We sit down with Dr. Rafif Tayara, a pediatric dentist and sleep dental medicine specialist, to zoom out from teeth and look at the child’s airway, sleep quality, and facial growth as one system. We also dig into everyday habits that quietly shape jaws: long pacifier use, thumb sucking, soft processed diets that reduce chewing, and screens that disrupt sleep hygiene. You’ll hear practical home strategies for a cleaner, more breathable bedroom, plus step-by-step nasal hygiene tips with saline and a thoughtful debate on toddler cups, 360 cups, and straw use for healthier swallowing mechanics. If you care about pediatric airway health, child sleep, and early orthodontic guidance, this conversation is packed with takeaways you can act on.

    76. My Airway Wake Up Call: What Adult Expansion (MARPE) Taught Me About Breath, Sleep, and Resilience with Ms. Margaret Stoch

    Your “teeth problem” might actually be a breathing problem, and the clues can show up as TMJ pain, clenching, headaches, chronic fatigue, nosebleeds, or sleep that never feels restorative. I sit down with Margaret Stoch, a speech language pathologist and founder of Advanced Therapy and Wellness Center in Illinois, to share her airway wake up call and the surprisingly emotional path that started with her son and ended with her becoming the patient.We get real about adult palatal expansion with MARPE: what the appliance is, why the screws scare people, what placement day feels like, and why discomfort often comes from facial change during turning rather than the device itself. Margaret explains why customization and CBCT imaging matter, how bone-borne and hybrid expanders differ from tooth-borne expansion, and how to think about acronyms like MARPE, MSE, MSC, and SARPE without getting lost in brand names. If you have questions about adult airway orthodontics, this will give you clearer language and smarter questions for consults._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Margaret Stoch, MHS, CCC-SLP, a speech-language pathologist and founder of Advanced Therapy & Wellness Center in Illinois.

    75. How an Unhealed Betrayal Is Impacting Your Health, Work, and Relationships… and What to Do About It with Dr. Debi Silber

    A broken promise can break more than your heart—it can fracture sleep, focus, and the sense that the world is safe. We invited Dr. Debbie Silber, founder of the PBT Institute and author of From Betrayal to Breakthrough, to unpack why betrayal is a different kind of trauma and how to heal it with a proven roadmap. Her research identifies Post‑Betrayal Syndrome, a cluster of physical, mental, and emotional symptoms that often hide behind labels like insomnia, anxiety, gut issues, and burnout. If you’ve ever wondered why time hasn’t helped, this conversation explains the biology and the psychology keeping you stuck._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Dr. Debi Silber, the Founder and CEO of the Post Betrayal Transformation (PBT) Institute and National Forgiveness Day.

    74. Maxillary Transverse Deficiency Syndrome - The Case for Early Expansion Q&A with Dr. Tyler Rathburn

    What if the problem isn’t crooked teeth but a cramped foundation and a tired airway? We take you behind the scenes of a modern ortho playbook where CBCT, skeletal expansion, and muscle training come together to protect gums, calm the bite, and help patients breathe better day and night.We break down how to read CBCT beyond tooth tips, focusing on palatal space and buccal cortical limits that actually govern stability. You’ll hear why MARPE, designed to be bone-borne, can expand the maxilla safely while minimizing dental side effects, and how improper dental expansion seeds buccal recession that shows up in the 30s and 40s. We share practical strategies for adults with existing recession, from night guards that buy time to SFOT or PAOO that broaden the cortical housing so teeth can upright within bone instead of through it. _________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Dr. Tyler Rathburn, known as Dr. Tyler, completed his DMD and orthodontics certificate at the Medical College of Georgia in 2015.

    73. Toss the Toxins and Heal with Allison Evans

    What if the fastest way to feel better is to take things away? We sit down with Allison Evans, co-founder of Branch Basics, to unpack how subtracting daily exposures—synthetic fragrances, pesticides, harsh disinfectants, plastics, and hidden mold—can restore balance, calm the nervous system, and revive hormones. From severe PCOS and chronic pain to four healthy pregnancies, Allison’s story shows how small, consistent changes at home create compounding wins.Allison explains why Branch Basics chose a single, transparent concentrate and oxygen booster to replace a cupboard of products, and why preservative choices matter for lungs, skin, and long-term resilience. The takeaway is empowering: you don’t need a perfect protocol to get better results. Start with the high-frequency exposures—air, water, food, and surfaces—and let your body do what it’s built to do. If your home is supposed to be your healthiest place, this conversation gives you the roadmap to make it true._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Allison Evans, co-founder of Branch Basics, who is passionate about helping others discover the life-changing benefits of clean living. By removing toxins from her home and diet, she overcame chronic pain, severe PCOS, mold exposure, and Lyme disease — and today, she’s a proud mom of four (something she was once told wouldn’t be possible). Allison inspires others to experience the “power of pure” and believes in the body’s God-given ability to heal when we simply get out of the way. Follow Allison Evans on Instagram: branchbasics Support the showABOUT OUR HOST:Renata Nehme RDH, BSDH, COM® has been a Registered Dental Hygienist since 2010.

    72. Manual Therapy and Its Place in Airway Disorders with Walt Fritz

    The traditional approach to treating airway disorders often revolves around strengthening weak muscles or stretching tight tissues. But what if there's more to the story? Physical therapist Walt Fritz challenges these simplistic models by revealing how manual therapy transforms breathing problems through complex neurological pathways rather than just mechanical changes.Fritz’s approach is distinguished by his focus on patient-centered care and shared decision-making. Rather than positioning himself as the sole expert, he engages patients with questions about their lived experiences, such as “What does it feel like when you snore?” This validation fosters a therapeutic environment that extends beyond physical treatment, described by his colleague Leah Halou as “metatherapy.”The podcast highlights intersections between manual therapy and myofunctional approaches, tongue tie treatments, trauma’s impact on breathing disorders, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Fritz encourages breaking down professional silos, helping therapists expand their skills while respecting their scope of practice._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Walt Fritz is a physical therapist and international educator specializing in manual therapy for voice, swallowing, oral motor, and airway disorders. Teaching since the mid-1990s, he launched Foundations in Manual Therapy: Voice and Swallowing Disorders in 2013, a course taught worldwide that reframes manual therapy as an active, patient-centered, and movement-based process. His approach emphasizes shared decision-making and multifactorial perspectives, encouraging clinicians to move beyond traditional models of care.

    71. From First Breaths to First Words: Oral Restrictions, Airway Health, and Team-Based Pediatric Care with Dr. Erick Galindo

    What if the most overlooked aspect of your child's health is something they do 20,000 times a day? In this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Eric Galindo, a pediatrician with nearly two decades of experience, we explore the profound connection between breathing, oral function, and overall development in children.Dr. Galindo shares his remarkable shift from traditional medicine's "band-aid approach" to a comprehensive understanding of how restricted airways impact everything from colic to sleep disturbances. With striking honesty, he admits, "When a pediatrician says 'it's normal,' they might really mean 'I don't know.'" This candid insight sets the tone for a discussion that connects seemingly unrelated childhood issues to their common root: compromised breathing._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Dr. Erick Galindo is a pediatrician based in Guadalajara who's redefining how we care for children.

    68. Beyond the Release: Why Fascia Matters in Orthodontic and TOT Outcomes with John McLaughlin

    Your body remembers everything—from physical accidents to childhood emotional traumas—and stores these memories within the intricate web of fascia that surrounds every organ, muscle, bone, and cell. In this eye-opening conversation with John McLaughlin, we explore how this "wetsuit under your skin" affects our overall health and particularly impacts orthodontic treatments and tongue-tie releases.John shares his journey from critical care nursing to craniosacral fascial therapy after seeking help for his own son's oral dysfunction. What started as a skill to help his family transformed into a calling as he witnessed dramatic healings through addressing the body's fascial system. He explains that fascia isn't just connective tissue—it's an intelligent communication network that remembers traumas and triggers protective responses when similar situations arise, sometimes decades later.This conversation reveals why treating tongue ties or expanding palates without addressing fascial restrictions often leads to incomplete results or asymmetrical outcomes. The deep frontal line connects "tongue to toe," meaning restrictions in your mouth may be influenced by tension in your pelvis, diaphragm, or feet. John details how different age groups respond to treatment—with babies offering immediate feedback, toddlers requiring playful approaches, and adults often experiencing profound emotional releases as their bodies process stored traumas._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:John McLaughlin is a dedicated practitioner of Craniosacral Fascial Therapy (CFT), trusting in the body's innate ability to heal as God intended.

    67. Lack of Oxygenation and Brain Development & Function with Dr. Josh Madsen

    The oxygen flowing to our children's brains does far more than keep them alive—it shapes their entire development in ways most parents and even healthcare providers rarely consider. In this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Josh Madsen, we uncover the profound connection between proper breathing, brain oxygenation, and neurological development that impacts everything from reading ability to behavioral regulation.Did you know that a baby who strongly lifts their head immediately after birth isn't necessarily showing advanced development, but potentially signaling neurological stress? Or that the popular "milestone relaxation" allowing children not to crawl could rob them of critical brain development? Dr. Madsen shares these insights and more, drawing from his extensive background in functional neurology and clinical practice treating children with developmental challenges._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Dr. Josh first earned his undergraduate degree in Exercise Science from the University of Northern Iowa before pursuing his Doctor of Chiropractic at Palmer College of Chiropractic.
