Stephanie May Wilson is an author and a popular podcaster who is on a mission to help women navigate through their biggest decisions in life.

We know it’s important to eat a healthy diet, take vitamins, and consume the right number of calories to fuel exercise and boost cardiovascular health.

We even spend top dollar on premium-priced organic clothing and sheets – all in the name of healthier living. This is all great, beneficial, and essential to living a better life. However, it’s truly surprising how few people stop to think about the bigger picture: their living environment.

| 36: Why SSRIs Are Ineffective & Dangerous for Depression | Dr. Roger McFillin, Psy.D., ABPP | 16 Jan 2024 | 01:17:40 | |
“The dangers of medicalizing the human condition are nothing short of a silent epidemic in American society. This dangerous trend pathologizes the core of human experience, categorizing everyday emotions and responses to trauma and life's challenges as disorders. It's a slippery slope into psychiatric over-diagnosis, overmedication, and a lifetime of pharmaceutical dependency.” – Dr. Roger McFillin, Psy.D., ABPP Despite being formally trained in evidence-based treatments and achieving Board Certification in Behavioral & Cognitive Psychology from the American Board of Professional Psychologists, Dr. Roger McFillin has witnessed countless individuals deteriorate under these supposedly “best available evidence” recommendations. Many who turned to drugs and medical interventions to improve their mental health worsened dramatically. In an attempt to resolve the conflict between what he was seeing in clinical practice and what he was told to be safe and effective, Dr. McFillin immersed himself in scientific literature, delved into ancient philosophy, and scrutinized historical texts. His revelations were astounding. Much of the current scientific base that informs psychiatry and the mental health field is infected with corruption and bias. Dr. McFillin now shares his experience, and addresses the pervasive issues that threaten to take away our medical freedoms in his captivating Radically Genuine Podcast.

| 33: The Metabolic Approach to Cancer | Dr. Nasha Winters, ND, FABNO | 19 Dec 2023 | 01:19:32 | |
When it comes to treating cancer, conventional medicine is good at cutting it, burning it, and poisoning it, but many oncologists fail to address the root cause. Join me as I speak with Dr. Nasha Winters, ND, FABNO, about the importance of a terrain-based approach when it comes to treating cancer. Dr. Winters shares the ten key elements of a patient’s “terrain” that are crucial to preventing and managing cancer. We discuss the importance of listening deeply to the cells of the body (with labs, molecular profiling, epigenetic testing, and more), metabolically supporting the body’s terrain (with a therapeutic diet, oxidative therapies, and stress reduction), and recognizing that the body has an inherent ability to heal.

| 30: The Functional Medicine Solution for Autoimmune Disease | Dr. Amy Myers, MD | 28 Nov 2023 | 00:54:19 | |

Today, I’m joined by Dr. Amy Myers, MD, a two-time bestselling author and internationally acclaimed medical and functional medicine physician, to discuss why autoimmune issues are on the rise and how we can treat them using a functional medicine approach.
