| Ep. 140 – Some Days I Don't Trust God: Faith, Fear & Parenting After Childhood Cancer | 22 Sep 2026 | 00:18:42 | |
When fear follows you home. Some days I trust God. Some days I question Him. And some days, after sitting across from families facing devastating diagnoses and impossible decisions, I honestly don't know what to believe. If you've walked your child through cancer, you know that fear doesn't simply disappear when treatment ends. You notice every bruise. A fever can take your mind somewhere completely different. The hospital calling can change your entire nervous system before you even answer the phone. You know too much now to simply go back to the way you thought before. In this episode, I'm talking about the incredibly thin line between conviction and fear. From the outside, they can produce exactly the same choices. But internally, they feel completely different. I share what Josh and I have learned about accepting the fragility we now understand without allowing it to control our family. We'll talk about what we actually can control as parents, why trying to create a perfect health bubble isn't the answer, and how healthy boundaries can coexist with birthday cake, road trips, flexibility, and joy. I also share one of the things I want parents to hear most clearly: you did not cause this. Doing everything "right" cannot guarantee an outcome, and one imperfect choice does not mean you have failed your child. And when it comes to our kids, the goal isn't to make them afraid of food, supplements, or getting sick again. It's to educate them so they can eventually understand and take ownership of their own health. This is also a conversation about faith without easy answers. I'm not going to pretend I understand why some children get sick or why some families experience unimaginable loss. But I am learning that I can acknowledge what I cannot control while continuing to steward the days I've been given. Because you cannot unknow what you know. But fear doesn't have to decide what you do with it.

| Ep. 139 – When Life Changes the Story: Reclaiming Hope, Wonder & What Comes Next with Harris III | 15 Sep 2026 | 00:54:54 | |
Your story isn't finished yet. What happens when life suddenly becomes a story you never wanted to be part of? A cancer diagnosis, a painful experience, or an unexpected season can change the way you see everything that comes next. Even after the immediate crisis has passed, your mind can keep returning to the fear, uncertainty, and worst-case scenarios you learned to anticipate. In this episode, I'm joined by Harris III to talk about the stories we carry and how they shape the way we think, respond, and move through difficult seasons. Harris shares how his unusual career as a professional illusionist eventually led him to study the stories we believe about ourselves. We explore how painful experiences can become deeply rooted narratives, why reclaiming agency doesn't mean denying what happened, and how developing a redemptive perspective can help us relate differently to the hardest parts of our story. We also talk about the difference between worry and wonder. Harris explains why wonder isn't something we have to wait to experience and how intentionally creating moments of awe, curiosity, and possibility can help us imagine that our story may unfold differently than we fear. Because you may not get to choose every chapter that enters your life. But that doesn't mean fear gets to write the rest of your story.

| Ep. 138 – Stop Guessing About Your Health: What Functional Testing Can Reveal with Dr. Stephen Cabral | 08 Sep 2026 | 00:54:33 | |
Stop Guessing. Start Looking Deeper. Your symptoms are giving you information. But they may not be telling you the whole story. When something feels off, it's easy to start guessing. Maybe it's your hormones. Maybe it's your gut. Maybe you need another supplement. But without understanding what's actually happening beneath the surface, it can be difficult to know where to begin. In this episode, I sit down with one of my mentors, Dr. Stephen Cabral, to talk about functional lab testing and how it can help uncover patterns involving nutrients, minerals, gut health, stress, mitochondrial function, and environmental toxins. We also walk through my son Kicker's actual Minerals & Metals Test results and discuss what they can reveal about mineral balance, stress patterns, and heavy metal exposure. Dr. Cabral explains why test results should be interpreted alongside symptoms and health history, how different functional tests can help connect the dots, and why certain tests may not make sense during active cancer treatment. Most importantly, we talk about where to start without feeling like you need to test everything. Because the goal isn't more testing for the sake of testing. It's gathering the right information so you can ask better questions and make more informed decisions about your health.

| Ep. 137 – Preparing for & Healing After Surgeries & Scans | 01 Sep 2026 | 00:24:09 | |
There's more you can do. When your child needs a scan or surgery, most of your attention naturally goes toward the procedure itself. You're thinking about the results, what the doctors will find, and simply getting through it. But what about supporting their body through the process? In this episode, I'm sharing what you can consider before, during, and after scans and surgeries to help prepare the body and support recovery. We'll talk about the differences between CT scans and MRIs, contrast exposure, hydration and drainage support, and practical ways to think about recovery after imaging. I'll also walk through foundational ways to prepare for and heal after surgery, while explaining why every protocol needs to be individualized. And because the impact isn't only physical, we'll talk about scan anxiety, the stress of repeated surveillance, and questions you can bring to your medical team when considering your options. This isn't about avoiding a scan or surgery that you or your child needs. It's about understanding how to support the body before, through, and after necessary medical care.

| Ep. 136 – When Your Oncologist Pushes Back on Supplements: What You Need to Know | 25 Aug 2026 | 00:18:00 | |
You're allowed to ask questions. Hearing "no" from an oncology team about a supplement can leave you feeling confused, intimidated, or unsure of what questions to ask next. In this episode, I break down some of the most common concerns I hear around supplements during cancer treatment, including homeopathic remedies, probiotics, organ meat supplements, and Quinton marine plasma minerals. This isn't about choosing conventional medicine over integrative support or the other way around. It's about understanding the concerns, recognizing where nuance matters, and learning how both approaches can work alongside one another. We'll look at why different supplements raise different safety questions, what responsible use can look like, and how having better information can help you advocate more confidently for your child. Because asking questions isn't being difficult. It's part of making informed decisions about your child's care.

| Ep. 135 – Sulforaphane and Cancer Support: What Most Supplements Get Wrong | 18 Aug 2026 | 00:54:52 | |
Most supplements don't actually work. There's a difference between taking something and your body actually being able to use it. When it comes to sulforaphane, that difference matters. Bioavailability, stability, and formulation can all influence what the body actually receives from a supplement. In this episode, I sit down with David Roberts, founder of Mara Labs, to explore the science behind sulforaphane and its potential role in cancer support, detoxification, inflammation, and cellular health. David shares the personal story behind Mara Labs and how his wife's cancer journey led him to investigate sulforaphane more deeply. We also discuss active sulforaphane versus its precursors, the NRF2 pathway, gut health, environmental toxins, and why understanding supplement formulation matters. Because it's not just about what you take. It's about whether your body can actually use it.

| Ep. 134 – My Morning Routine: What Actually Supports Energy and Healing | 11 Aug 2026 | 00:22:20 | |
Your morning shapes your day.
What if the way you start your morning… is the reason you either feel grounded, energized, and clear—or reactive, depleted, and behind? In this episode, I'm sharing what my morning routine actually looks like right now—and more importantly, what truly supports my energy and healing. This routine didn't happen overnight. It was built over years, one habit at a time, as I learned what my body, my mind, and my family needed most—especially while supporting others through their healing journeys. We'll walk through the exact structure of my mornings—from minerals and detox support to movement, sauna, and time in prayer—and how each piece helps me show up fully for my work, my family, and myself. If your mornings feel rushed or disconnected, this episode will help you rethink what a supportive, sustainable routine can look like in your season of life.

| Ep. 133 – The Untoxin Method for Caregivers: A 30-Day Reset for Energy and Healing | 04 Aug 2026 | 00:14:57 | |
Caregiving takes more than anyone sees.
What if the exhaustion, brain fog, and burnout you've been feeling… isn't just in your head—but your body asking for support? In this episode, I'm speaking directly to the caregiver—the one holding everything together behind the scenes. Because when someone you love is diagnosed, the focus rightfully shifts to them. But almost no one talks about what happens to your body while you're surviving it all. We talk about the physical impact of long-term stress, how caregiving affects your detox pathways, energy, and mental clarity—and why waiting until things "calm down" to take care of yourself often leads to deeper burnout. I also share the story behind the Untoxin Method and why I created it specifically for caregivers who need real support, not another overwhelming protocol. This episode is both validation and a path forward—because you deserve to feel supported, too.

| Ep. 132 – The Emotion Code: The Missing Piece in Cancer Healing | 28 Jul 2026 | 00:30:19 | |
Trapped emotions can block healing.
In this episode, I'm sharing one of the most powerful modalities I use with nearly every client—the Emotion Code—and how releasing trapped emotional energy can create real, physical shifts in the body. You'll hear the story of a 17-year-old client whose healing didn't just show up in scans—but in his energy, behavior, and willingness to engage in life again. We talk about how trauma, stress, and even inherited emotional patterns can live in the body—and why addressing them may be one of the most overlooked pieces of the healing process. This is not about replacing medical care. Because sometimes, the missing piece isn't another supplement…

| Ep. 131 – The Air You're Breathing Is More Toxic Than You Think | 21 Jul 2026 | 00:37:33 | |
Clean air is not optional.
What if the space you're relying on to heal… is quietly adding to your toxic burden every single day? In this episode, I sit down with Justin from Jasper Air to talk about one of the three foundational pieces I focus on with every cancer family: air. We break down why indoor air is often more polluted than outdoor air, what's actually in wildfire smoke, and how modern homes are unintentionally trapping toxins inside. We also talk about mold, VOCs, and the difference between standard air purifiers and true air scrubbers. This conversation is about more than just comfort—it's about creating a healing environment where your body isn't constantly fighting what it breathes. If you're walking through treatment or navigating life after cancer, this episode will shift how you think about your home.

| Ep. 130 – Inside a Pediatric Cancer Hospital: What Nurses See That Most Families Never Hear | 14 Jul 2026 | 00:54:40 | |
What is it really like inside a pediatric cancer hospital? Most families only experience one side of cancer treatment. But behind the hospital doors, pediatric oncology nurses witness the victories, the heartbreaks, the long nights, and the countless moments that never make it into a medical chart. In this episode, I sit down with pediatric oncology nurse Savannah Cruz, who has spent years caring for children receiving chemotherapy, stem cell transplants, and some of the most intensive cancer treatments available. Now, as part of the Biodynamic Wellness team, Savannah brings a unique perspective that bridges conventional pediatric oncology with functional medicine. Together, we discuss what daily life inside a children's cancer hospital really looks like—from the food served during treatment and the hidden environmental exposures families often overlook, to why nutrition, detoxification, emotional support, and advocacy can play such an important complementary role alongside standard cancer care. This conversation isn't about choosing one approach over another. It's about helping families understand where conventional medicine saves lives, where functional medicine can fill important gaps, and how parents can become confident partners in their child's healing journey.

| Ep. 129 – The Hidden Toxins in Your Clothes And Why It Matters for Your Health | 07 Jul 2026 | 00:56:59 | |
Your clothes may be toxic. What if something your child wears every single day… is quietly exposing them to chemicals you'd never allow in their food or skincare? In this episode, I sit down with Hannah Dunning, also known as the "Clean Clothing Chick," to uncover one of the most overlooked sources of toxin exposure: clothing. We talk about why the textile industry is one of the least regulated industries today, how harmful chemicals like PFAS, phthalates, and endocrine disruptors are commonly found in everyday fabrics, and what this means for your family—especially if you're navigating cancer or supporting healing. Hannah also shares her personal journey, from losing her grandmother to cancer to uncovering how environmental toxins—including clothing—can impact our health at a cellular and hormonal level. This conversation is both eye-opening and empowering. Because while this topic can feel overwhelming, there are simple, practical steps you can take right now to reduce exposure and protect your family.

| Ep. 128 – Clean Foundations: Water, Air, & Electricity | 30 Jun 2026 | 00:39:19 | |
Your environment affects healing more than you think. In this episode, I'll walk you through three foundational areas that have the power to either support healing—or silently work against it. We often focus on supplements, protocols, and treatments, but healing doesn't happen in isolation. It happens within the environment your body is exposed to every single day. If your child is drinking, breathing, and sleeping in a toxic environment, it creates a constant burden on the body—no matter how "clean" everything else looks. This is why we're focusing on the basics: clean water, clean air, and clean electricity. I break down what's commonly found in each of these, why it matters especially during and after cancer treatment, and most importantly—simple, practical ways you can begin making changes right now. Because sometimes the most powerful step in healing isn't adding more…

| Ep. 127 – Dose, Source & Strategy: Vitamin C and D for Kids in Cancer Treatment | 23 Jun 2026 | 00:25:05 | |
Not all vitamins work the same. What if the difference between helping your child heal… and unintentionally holding them back… comes down to how you're using something as simple as vitamin C or D? In this episode, we're talking about two of the most commonly used nutrients in cancer care(vitamin C and vitamin D) and why dose, source, and strategy matter more than most people realize. This conversation comes from a live office hours session with Dr. Charles Pennick, where we walk through how these nutrients actually function in the body, the difference between synthetic and whole-food forms, and how to think about dosing safely, especially during active treatment. We also explore the nuances that often get missed: why vitamin C isn't just ascorbic acid, how high-dose IV vitamin C works differently than oral forms, and why pairing vitamin D with K2 is essential for proper absorption and safety. If you've ever felt confused about supplements—or wondered if you're doing "too much" or "not enough". This episode will help you approach these foundational nutrients with more clarity and confidence.

In this episode, I sit down with building biologist Brian Johnson to explore something most families never think about—but absolutely should: the health of your home.

From mold and water damage to EMFs and air quality, Brian shares what to look for before you buy, rent, or even stay in a home.

| EP. 125 — Beyond the Bell: The Functional Testing Roadmap for True Cancer Recovery | 09 Jun 2026 | 00:35:24 | |
What happens after treatment ends… and no one tells you what comes next? There's a moment every cancer family reaches—the bell rings, scans are clear, and suddenly you're expected to just move on. But what if that's actually when the real healing begins? In this episode, I'm walking you through the exact functional testing roadmap we use with families at Biodynamic Wellness to rebuild the body after cancer treatment. This isn't about guesswork—it's about understanding what's happening beneath the surface so you can support true, lasting recovery. We're talking about the five key tests that reveal what your child's body needs most, when to run them, and how they help you move from simply surviving… to truly thriving.

| Ep. 124 – The Hidden Toxin No One's Talking About: Emotional Root of Cancer With Dr. Tony Jimenez | 02 Jun 2026 | 00:55:50 | |
What if one of the biggest missing pieces in cancer healing isn't physical at all? In this incredibly powerful episode, I'm joined again by Dr. Tony Jimenez, founder and chief medical officer of Hope4Cancer Treatment Centers, to talk about something that every family walking through cancer needs to hear: the connection between emotions, trauma, stress, and healing. Dr. Tony shares why emotional healing is not optional during a cancer journey — it's foundational. We talk about how unresolved trauma can quietly impact the body at the cellular level, why hope truly matters in healing, and how emotional wounds can affect not only us, but future generations as well. We also discuss practical ways to begin emotional healing, how parents can release guilt after a child's diagnosis, and why creating safety, peace, and connection within the body matters so deeply during treatment and recovery. This conversation is compassionate, eye-opening, deeply hopeful, and filled with practical wisdom you can begin applying today. Because healing is about more than surviving.

| Ep. 123 – Smiley's Journey: Surviving Childhood Cancer and Spreading Hope | 26 May 2026 | 00:46:57 | |
There are some conversations that stay with you long after the recording ends, and this was one of them. When I first came across Brady Lucas and heard pieces of his story, I immediately knew I wanted him on the podcast. As a cancer mom myself, hearing from survivors who are now thriving years later brings so much hope — not just for me, but for every family walking through this journey right now. Brady was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia at just 8 years old. After enduring years of chemotherapy, he relapsed as a teenager and underwent a life-saving bone marrow transplant donated by his younger brother. In this conversation, he shares what it was like to face cancer as a child, the emotional weight survivors carry long after treatment ends, and how his perspective on health completely transformed because of it. We also talk about something I'm incredibly passionate about: what happens after treatment. Because surviving cancer is not the finish line. It's the beginning of rebuilding the body, supporting long-term healing, and creating an environment where health can truly thrive. Brady shares how nutrition, movement, sleep, emotional healing, and community support became foundational parts of his healing journey — and why he now feels called to educate and empower other families. This episode is honest, emotional, encouraging, and deeply hopeful. If you are in the middle of treatment, supporting someone you love through cancer, or navigating survivorship yourself, I hope Brady's story reminds you that there is life, purpose, healing, and hope on the other side of this.

What would you do if your child's life depended on decisions no one is fully explaining to you?

What followed wasn't just a cancer journey… it was a complete rethinking of how healing actually works.

This is not just a story of survival.

| Ep. 119 – The PJP Protocol Paradox: Why Prophylactic Antibiotics May Be Creating the Problem They're Trying to Prevent | 28 Apr 2026 | 00:25:55 | |
In this episode, I dive into one of the most challenging decisions many cancer parents face—how to protect your child from infection without unintentionally causing further harm. We're talking about PJP (Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia) and the standard use of long-term prophylactic antibiotics during treatment. While the intention is to prevent a serious infection, I explore the growing concern that this approach may be compromising the very immune system it's meant to protect. Drawing from both research and my personal experience, I unpack what's often not discussed in the oncology setting and share a more supportive, integrative approach to protecting your child's health during treatment.

Kim guided me through some of our family's toughest moments — from our daughter's adoption to my son's cancer recovery. Now, as the new owners of her practice, I am honored to continue her work. On April 1st, 2025, Biodynamic Wellness officially became ours, and we're ready to continue her legacy in a powerful new way. Finally, I discuss some concerning trends I'm seeing in my practice: mycotoxin exposure in cancer patients, active gut infections in remission, and persistent metabolic dysfunction.
