#266 The 5 Steps That Help Women Clear High-Risk HPV (When Doctors Say It's Impossible)
Season 4 · Episode 266
Friday, May 30, 2025 • Duration 25:07
If you just found out that you're testing positive for high-risk HPV on your pap smear result, I'm going to walk you through the five essential steps I recommend for anyone who has received a positive high risk HPV diagnosis.
I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor and certified professional midwife who has been in practice for over 25 years helping women understand high risk HPV and what they can do to protect themselves from cancer associated with the high-risk HPV virus. You're in the perfect place to learn exactly what you need to do because I understand how scary it can be when you first get those test results back from your gynecologist showing positive for high-risk HPV.
The diagnosis might be type 16 or 18 or one of the other fourteen types of high-risk HPV that are associated with cancer risk. No matter which type is testing positive—or sometimes more than one—it can trigger significant fear, anxiety, and worry about what to do next. What can you do to protect yourself? How can you be proactive?
Often, gynecology offices tell patients to "just wait and come back in three to six months or a year, and there's nothing you can do about it." I speak with thousands of women every year, and this is what they consistently tell me their doctor's office says—that there's nothing you can do but wait and see if it causes abnormal cells or cancer.
As someone who has been helping women for over 25 years—thousands of women around the world—I'm here to tell you that you don't have to wait and see if it turns into cancer. There are steps you can take starting now, and that's the purpose of this guide: to give you clear direction on what you can do immediately. I know it's challenging to find this
#257 Health Transformation and Recovery from Trauma by Reducing Inflammation and Using Psychedelic Medicine with Dr. Brad Jacobs
Season 4 · Episode 257
Friday, March 28, 2025 • Duration 53:18
In this episode I’m excited to introduce you to Dr. Brad Jacobs, who is board certified in internal medicine and integrative medicine. He is the owner of BlueWave Medicine Clinic in Sausalito, California, and also co-author of the Anti-Inflammation Cookbook. He specializes in psychedelic medicine and a form of therapy called Hakomi.
Dr. Brad is now leading in-person retreats in Costa Rica on precision medicine and longevity. We'll be talking about health transformation, longevity, and recovery from trauma by making diet changes to reduce inflammation and using psychedelic medicines.
Dr. Brad has been involved with integrative medicine since he was 10 years old. He grew up doing martial arts, and that Chinese upbringing infused him with a different view of how to think about health and healing—not just the treatment of disease but the prevention of disease, thriving and flourishing.
I’m so glad Dr. Brad was able to join me on How Humans Heal today to discuss these important topics to help all of you know what is possible for transforming your health and recovering from trauma.

#255 Best Support for Fertility with Dr. Susan Fox!
Season 4 · Episode 255
Friday, March 14, 2025 • Duration 36:47
Today I'm looking forward to introducing you to Dr. Susan Fox. She's a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, and she's the creator of the "Your Fertile Health Program" as well as the "Best Prep for Pregnancy - Naturally or through IVF or Egg Freezing" Online Summit.
So many people out there are struggling with fertility and going through the IVF process with all the stresses that come with it. They're needing help and guidance, but might not know where to turn or what their options are.
I think it's wonderful that Dr. Susan is offering fertility support from a Chinese medicine perspective. In my practice I also help many couples to conceive naturally and/or through IVF, and to prevent a miscarriage, with a naturopathic approach. It is so rewarding to help people to create the family of their dreams.
As with most health concerns, including preparation for pregnancy and prevention of pregnancy loss, it is when we use strategies from all systems of medicine that we can achieve improved results. It’s not about choosing one approach or another. Natural approaches can be combined with allopathic approaches to improve fertility outcomes.
Learn more about the role of Chinese medicine and acupuncture in this episode, and about the Best Prep for Pregnancy Summit, with Dr. Susan Fox.
#254 Why There's NO Magic Pill for HPV or ANY Health Issue!
Season 4 · Episode 254
Friday, March 7, 2025 • Duration 34:26
In this episode, I'm going to be talking about the concept of the "magic pill" and I'm going to be especially using it to talk about risk for HPV-related cancer, specifically cervical cancer in women. But I encourage you to listen in regardless of what health issue you're dealing with to better understand the mindset, perspective, and paradigm shift that I see my patients making in order to truly transform their health.
The magic pill concept is about a fictional or hypothetical medication that can miraculously heal or cure any kind of health issue from a single pill without any side effects or limitations. I think we can all relate to this – we would all love it if there was some magic pill we could swallow that takes away all of our pain, whether physical or emotional, cancer risk, or whatever troubles we're experiencing in our life.
Wouldn't that be amazing if we could just take a pill and it all goes away?
When we get a headache, we immediately think, "Where's that pill I could take to make the headache go away?" Sometimes it works – we take a pill and the headache disappears. The problem is if we get a headache every day and take that pill every day, eventually that pill can start to have side effects and negative impacts on our bodies. At that point, even if that pill is taking our headache away, it might be causing a stomachache, for example.
This is the limitation of taking a medication or substance we often turn to for a quick fix. As humans, we have to learn to stop ourselves from chasing that next shiny object, hoping that one thing is going to fix everything and we're never going to have to think about it again.
We need to realize that the reality is that most often, things are not really fixed with a magic pill. They're more often resolved with true intention and transformation.
#253 The 3 Ways High-Risk HPV Virus Acts Like a Narcissist!
Season 4 · Episode 253
Friday, February 28, 2025 • Duration 29:38
In this episode I'm going to be sharing with you 3 reasons why I consider high-risk HPV virus to be a narcissistic virus.
I'm referring to high-risk human papillomavirus. 99% of cervical cancer for women is associated with high-risk HPV virus. High-risk HPV is also associated with other types of cancer for both women and men. In fact, it's one of the fastest-increasing types of cancer that exist today. Cervical cancer alone is considered the third most common cancer in women.
As a naturopathic doctor and midwife specializing in women's health for over 25 years, this is something I've been helping women with for over two decades. I see very clearly what women are going through, and often they are suffering in silence as they deal with high-risk HPV and cancer risk.
I am highly passionate and motivated to open up what's hidden and silent around high-risk HPV and bring more awareness to it because I believe we can reduce cervical cancer as well as other HPV-related cancers by understanding the HPV virus.
#252 Meet Laura Lang-Ree, The Cancer Mom Who's Empowering Parents!
Season 4 · Episode 252
Friday, February 21, 2025 • Duration 56:17
In this episode I'm excited to introduce you to Laura DeKraker Lang-Ree. She is a patient advocate, a professional educator for over 30 years, and author of a book to empower parents who are in the process of supporting their child through cancer treatment. It's called "The Cancer Parents Handbook: What Your Oncologist Doesn't Have Time to Tell You."
I’m so grateful that Laura is joining me on How Humans Heal to share about her journey that led to writing the book. She didn't write it out of nowhere - she wrote it because she went through it herself. Her daughter had childhood leukemia at age three.
That's huge to have gone through the cancer treatment process and come out the other side saying "I want to help others by writing the book I needed when I was in the process of helping my daughter."
Navigating the treatment process can be so stressful. The medical team is phenomenal at the treatment side, but they don't have time to explain everything parents need to know about managing daily life, supporting their child's wellbeing, and maintaining their own health through the process. This book aims to provide that missing piece - the information parents desperately need but doctors don't have time to share.
The impact of cancer treatment goes far beyond the medical aspects. It affects the whole family - parents, siblings, and extended family members. It changes routines, challenges relationships, and forces families to develop new ways of coping and supporting each other.
Laura's book addresses all these aspects, providing practical guidance for navigating both the medical journey and the profound personal transformation that comes with it. I’ve very proud to have contributed to the Cancer Parent’s Handbook with insights as a naturopathic doctor, and as Laura’s doctor (with her permission to share).
#251 Meet Dr. Brandy Cummings, The HEALTH HERO Every Mom Needs!
Season 4 · Episode 251
Friday, February 14, 2025 • Duration 41:10
Today I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Brandy Cummings, who holds a doctorate in Clinical Nutrition. She's the host of the Resilient Motherhood Summit, which I'm particularly enthusiastic about because she's created this wonderful opportunity to support women who've been dealing with chronic health issues during and after pregnancy.
Pregnancy and motherhood is a beautiful and amazing time of women’s life, and it can be extremely stressful and depleting for women. Nutrients can become deficient, and hormones can become imbalanced. This leaves women at risk of many different health issues, making it harder for them to take care of themselves and their children.
Women have been taught that they “should” be a “super mom” – to take care of everyone without feeling overwhelmed or exhausted. But the fact is, most moms do experience fatigue, anxiety, and burnout, let alone many other health issues. And women feel their health issues aren't being adequately addressed by the standard medical system.
Dr. Brandy has created the Resilient Motherhood Summit as a platform for women to learn more about the possibilities for healing, even if they’ve been told that healing is not possible.
I'm deeply grateful to be part of the Resilient Motherhood Summit to discuss HPV and abnormal pap smears, which many mom’s face without adequate help. Plus, as a stress expert, I see that when women are burned out due to not having enough support during motherhood, they become more susceptible to HPV and other health issues.
As healthcare practitioners, Dr. Brandy and I both believe that women deserve and need more support – with diet, lifestyle, and overall wellness – during and after pregnancy in order to prevent health issues.
#250 The 5 Surprising Ways That Menopause Increases Risk of HPV
Season 4 · Episode 250
Friday, February 7, 2025 • Duration 20:41
In this episode, I'm going to be talking about the five reasons that high-risk HPV virus and abnormal pap smears are more common during peri and post-menopause.
Many women think that dealing with HPV and abnormal pap smears is primarily a concern for women in their 20s and 30s. While yes, it is a concern for younger women, it's also a significant issue for women over age 35. Age 35 marks the beginning of perimenopause, which means around the time of menopause. Menopause is defined by one year since your last period, with the average age being 51. This means that post-menopause comprises most of a woman's life, making it crucial to understand how to support women during this transition and beyond.
Perhaps some of you listening have already dealt with abnormal cells or cancer related to HPV and want to know how to prevent a recurrence. I'll be sharing that information with you because this is something I specialize in helping women address. We need to understand why it is and how it is that high-risk HPV virus can test positive during this time of your life, and know that there's so much you can do to protect yourself from high-risk HPV to prevent it from causing cervical cancer, vaginal cancer, or other types of HPV-related cancers.
