Hey there, Rockstar — I'm so glad you're here.
I'm Dr. Lisa O, a chiropractor, naturopath/ functional medicine practitioner who's spent the last 20+ years helping women and men in midlife figure out what's actually happening in their bodies — and what to do about it.
If you've been told your labs are "fine" but you know something is off — the brain fog, the exhaustion, the weight that won't move, the libido that disappeared, the rage you don't recognize — this show is for you. We go deep on hormones, the DUTCH test, bioidentical therapy, and the real root causes that conventional medicine often misses.
No dismissal. No wellness hype. Just honest medicine from a doctor who's been in practice long enough to know the difference.
Welcome back. The best chapter is still ahead.
With love and real results,
Dr. Lisa O

Flashback Friday — It's Easier to Stay Well Than Get Well
Saison 4 · Épisode 162
vendredi 25 septembre 2026 • Durée 10:44
Originally released as Episode 138. Fresh 2026 intro from Dr. Lisa O.
The first Flashback Friday of the relaunch. The philosophy episode that runs underneath everything Dr. Lisa does in her practice.
Prevention isn't sexy. It doesn't sell like miracle protocols. But it works, it's cheaper, and it's the difference between spending your 60s and 70s vital and engaged with your life or spending them managing conditions.
If you're new here — this is how Dr. Lisa actually thinks about health.
If you've been with the show for years — hear it with fresh ears now that you know where the whole practice is going.
The doctor-built checklist I now have my own patients fill out before their first appointment with me. The seven symptoms most doctors dismiss as "just getting older" — and what to actually do about each one. Print it, check what's true for you, and take it to your next doctor's visit armed.
The honest read on what your favorite wellness influencers are selling you that isn't true — the hyped supplements that don't work, the "detoxes" that damage your organs, the tests that are marketing dressed up as medicine. If you've been burned by wellness bull**it and you want the truth, this is for you. Grab it from the pop-up when you visit healthylivingsimple.com.

Saison 4 · Épisode 161
mardi 22 septembre 2026 • Durée 37:08
Episode 161: The 5 Hormone Red Flags Everyone Over 35 Should Know
If your bloodwork looks "normal" but you feel anything but fine — this is the episode.
Dr. Lisa O walks through the five hormone red flags she sees every single week in her practice — the ones most doctors miss, the ones that mean you need to stop accepting "you're just getting older" as an answer, and the ones that are almost always fixable when you actually address the root cause.
This one is for anyone (yes — women AND men) who's been told they're fine when they know they're not. Print the free checklist that goes with this episode, take it to your next doctor's visit, and refuse to be dismissed.
What we cover:
• Red Flag #1: The weight that won't budge (and why it's not a calorie problem)
• Red Flag #2: The 3 AM wake-up and the sleep that isn't restoring you
• Red Flag #3: The rage, anxiety, and crying at commercials — you are not "just hormonal"
• Red Flag #4: The libido that disappeared (and the intimacy that's suffering because of it)
• Red Flag #5: The brain fog that's making you afraid you're losing your mind
• Why "normal bloodwork" is one of the biggest lies in modern medicine
• The story of Jen — 46, dismissed by her doctor, and what actually turned it around
• What to do THIS WEEK based on your score

I'm Back! The comeback episode — and the love story I didn't see coming.
Saison 4 · Épisode 160
mardi 22 septembre 2026 • Durée 19:31
After three and a half years off the air, Dr. Lisa O is back. In this episode, she tells you exactly where she went, what she's been doing while she was quiet, and what you can expect from the show going forward.
The short version: she fell in love in her late 40s (yes, really), got married to the person she'd stopped expecting, and spent the last two years going deep on hormone health care after watching too many patients get dismissed by their doctors with some version of "you're just getting older."
This is the trust-deposit episode. If you're a longtime listener wondering where she went — this is the answer. If you're brand new — this is the introduction. Either way, welcome.
What we cover:
Where Dr. Lisa went for the last three and a half years
The love story she didn't see coming (and why it matters for you)
Why she came back — and what changed her mind about the podcast
What's different about this season: new name, solo format, honest medicine
What's coming next — the hormone red flags most doctors miss, and the DUTCH test that changed how she practices
Why "midlife is the wind-down" is the most expensive lie our culture sells women
The best chapter is still ahead. I promise.

159: Healthy Living Simple Tips with Dr. Aaron Hartman
Saison 3 · Épisode 159
mardi 11 avril 2023 • Durée 03:21
Covered in Episode 152 with Dr. Aaron Hartman:
What is hypermobility and the illnesses associated with it
Why is hypermobility associated with so many different health challenges?
The common symptoms of hypermobility
How hypermobility affect Lyme and Mold illness
Dr. Aaron Hartman's journey with functional medicine started when he & his wife adopted their first daughter from foster care. She has cerebral palsy & countless dietary issues. They went from specialist to specialist and, even as a physician, he felt let down & confused. His daughter's health struggles forced him to confront an uncomfortable realization: Our current healthcare system doesn't have all the answers. His wife, however, refused to give up hope. She ultimately pointed him to functional medicine. His daughter & other two kids began to thrive. After years in family practice, he felt called to make a dramatic shift.
He now helps patients identify leverage points in key areas of their lifestyle & health that harness their body's remarkable power to heal and begin living the vibrant life they deserve. He has become the ‘go to’ doctor for difficult and hard cases in central Virginia.
As a clinical researcher, Dr. Hartman has been involved with over 60 clinical studies, he is the founder of the Virginia Research Center, and currently is serving as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Family Medicine at the VCU School of Medicine.
In 2016 he founded Richmond Integrative and Functional Medicine
158: Coconut Oil, MCT & Alzheimer's: Exploring the Latest Research
Saison 3 · Épisode 158
jeudi 6 avril 2023 • Durée 01:20:00
It’s funny how life comes full circle sometimes, right? I remember early on in my practice digging into some doctor’s research on coconut oil. I had been using coconut oil in my diet for several years, and this lady was giving it to her husband and seeing changes in his dementia symptoms. Little did I know then that I’d be recording a podcast with her nearly 15 years later. And that we’d laugh and cry on the podcast too. Dr. Mary Newport shares her and her husband’s heart wrenching story regarding Alzheimer’s Disease and what led this neonatologist to developing a product with Pruvit, the first company to bring exogenous ketones to the marketplace.
157: Healthy Living Simple Tips with Dr. Diane Mueller
Saison 3 · Épisode 157
mardi 4 avril 2023 • Durée 09:01
Dr. Diane Mueller knows firsthand what it is like to be misdiagnosed, underdiagnosed, and told that everything is fine when it most certainly is not. At one point in her medical history, she thought she might be dying due to the serious memory loss and inability to walk. Lyme Disease was one of the root causes that caused symptom from pain to digestive disorders and hormonal imbalances. At her clinic, My Lyme Doc, she is passionate about helping people return to full health, just as she did.
156 Unexplained Symptoms: How Fatigue, Thyroid Issues, Pain & More Might Be Linked to your MOUTH?
Saison 3 · Épisode 156
jeudi 30 mars 2023 • Durée 39:08
Dr. Caitlin Czezowski DC, CFMP, CACCP is a doctor of chiropractic and certified functional medicine practitioner with extensive training in women's health, pregnancy and children.
The reason Dr. Caitlin’s searches for the root cause is because her health took a turn for the worse in her 20’s and no Doctor could tell her why.
It wasn’t until she traced her root cause back to the dental work she had done as a teenager and young adult. Through extensive research, she found that the majority of symptoms and even illnesses can be linked back to the mouth, and because of this, The Dental Detox was created.
Covered in this Episode:
What are amalgams, why are they bad?
How silver fillings affect your health systemically

Saison 3 · Épisode 155
mardi 28 mars 2023 • Durée 16:58
In celebrating her 20 years since graduation of Chiropractic School, Dr. Lisa had so many of her patients asking how she ended up in Chiropractic. She realized that a lot of her own patients didn't even know the "miracle" story of one of her family members, and she wanted to share it with all of you... Plus, for those of you in the practice, you may have seen the photo of the kids from a mission trip in Kathmandu Nepal in 2002. There's a reason she keeps those pictures on her wall, 21 years later... Tune in today to a special episode from another podcast Dr. Lisa was a featured guest on, where she was asked about her own personal story...
