367: Meat glue, pink slime, lab grown meat labeling, and mixing different animals together to create that perfect 80/20 pound of ground meat you're buying are just a few scandals discussed in this episode with Will Harris, owner of White Oak Pastures. This is a 5th generation regenerative farm done right by us and in this interview Will shares what the USDA inspection process looks like, how big food companies treat their animals vs how he treats his own. And if you thought you were buying USA meat, think again!

348: Does dairy love you back… or is it low key sabotaging your skin, gut, and sinuses? Today I’m sharing my very personal, very real journey with dairy, from going fully dairy free during my worst gut struggles to slowly rebuilding tolerance with cultured options like Greek yogurt. I’m breaking down why some forms, like stretchy melty cheeses, still wreck me, while others work beautifully, and why fat content has suddenly changed the game for my body. We’re talking mucus, breakouts, lactose vs intolerance, A2, raw milk, portion size, and why this doesn’t have to be an all or nothing conversation. Your body changes, your digestion evolves, and what worked three years ago might not work today. If you’ve ever said “dairy just doesn’t sit right with me,” this episode might help you figure out why. Topics Discussed: → How dairy has affected me over the years → How to introduce diary into your diet → Why some cheese can cause issues others don’t → It’s not all about ingredients but the process  → Is raw dairy REALLY ok and why I stopped drinking it → Sheeps milk, goats milk, and A2 dairy  → Why it’s not an all or nothing approach when it comes to consuming dairy As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected].

347: Ever feel like your stomach is reacting before your brain even catches up? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Will Cole to talk about what is really going on with the gut brain connection and why your stress, shame, and even childhood trauma might be showing up as bloating, anxiety, brain fog, or inflammation. We get into his newest book, Gut Feelings, and unpack everything from the vagus nerve to “shame inflammation,” plus how chronic stress can spike inflammatory markers like interleukin 6.  If you have ever wondered why you can eat the same meal on vacation and feel fine, then eat it at home and feel wrecked, this one is for you. We are connecting the dots between your gut, your nervous system, your past, and your plate. And trust me, it is all connected.

335: Seth Gruber is back for a second time to finish up what we started last year in 2025, which was quite literally the most controversial podcast episode I have done to date, and for good reason. Abortion, both surgical and oral pill abortions, are performed daily across the USA and, sadly, the world, often without any informed consent about what an abortion can do to a woman's health. This information has been suppressed, and the studies, research, and real life stories from mothers have been suppressed. Today we get into who has financial ties to Planned Parenthood, why Big Pharma is pushing the abortion pill that is actually more dangerous than having a surgical abortion, as well as preterm labor complications linked to past abortions, and ultimately why and how women are simply not informed by their doctors and OBGYNs about the deadly complications for the women considering an abortion. Whether you're on the right, the left, or somewhere in the middle, I can guarantee the information in today's episode will shock you, and you will be demanding more truth from your doctors and questioning what we have all been told for decades and the true agenda behind aborting babies despite women's health being at risk. → Episode 286 with Seth Gruber Topics Discussed: → The abortion pill vs. surgical abortion → Breast cancer linked to past abortions → Studies that have been suppressed → Who funds Planned Parenthood → Why the health effects of miscarriages are not the same as those from abortions → When does a human become a human? → Baby parts in our drinking water → Playboy is linked to Planned Parenthood?! → How to save a baby after the abortion pill is taken → Preterm labor As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected].

322: If you suffer from chronic pain, chronic gut issues, organ problems, arthritis, or unexplained pain where nothing else helps, and you’ve exhausted your resources trying to figure out the cause, today’s episode may enlighten you and offer insight into what your body may be missing to naturally heal and repair itself without pharmaceuticals. Christian Drapeau joins me today to share about stem cell therapy and what it can do for the body through its own repair mechanisms. If you’ve heard of stem cell therapy, you already know it can cost up to $50k for one injection. Thankfully, Christian came up with a much more affordable, and perhaps safer, solution than the needle. He shares his discovery of certain plants that can help your body repair itself on a cellular level naturally, helping to combat those persistent, unexplainable autoimmune issues. Heck, maybe you just want to age more slowly, look younger, and have more energy to enjoy life! I can guarantee everyone who listens today will benefit from the information shared in this episode. Topics Discussed: → Stem Cell Therapy → The Cost of Stem Cell Therapy → Benefits of Stem Cell Therapy → Side Effects of Stem Cell Therapy → Alternatives to Stem Cell Therapy → Why Our Bodies Need Stem Cell s→ Reversing Aging → Eliminating Pain As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at [email protected].
