I love talking to guests on the podcast. These latest episodes are no exception, featuring guests who surprised and inspired me with insights into heath and healthcare related topics. You will discover how oxygen and VO2 Max place a huge role in bioregulation, how a natural body products company goes from kitchen to nationwide distribution through a world pandemic, what it is like to provide education, care and support to empower young at-risk mothers, and how healthcare is changing in a world of virtual visits and intelligent agents. 

Do you ask yourself these questions when you drink from your tap or when choosing items at the grocery? We know that optimal health starts with literally what you put in your gut. And that has immediate and downstream effects on our health and wellness. We know the body - right now in the present moment -  is the highest resolution feedback we can see how we have been living with our current habits. The good news is that we can invest our time and effort, and have better control over what goes in our body... and ultimately, what we get back from it.
