Healing The Source Podcast
Oliver Amdrup-Chamby is back for his third conversation on Healing The Source, and this time we're going deeper. As co-founder and CEO of Puori, Oliver has spent 15 years building the case that supplement transparency isn't a marketing strategy, it's a baseline obligation. Now, with California's SB 1033 moving through the legislature and two major category studies confirming what he's been saying for years, the rest of the industry is being forced to catch up. We get into the bill itself, what it actually requires, why the supplement industry's largest trade association is fighting it, and...

Your chronic sinusitis, brain fog, hormonal dysfunction, and fatigue may all have the same root cause — and your doctor has probably never mentioned it. Dr. Donald Dennis is a board-certified ENT surgeon who had his "mold epiphany" after a patient returned from a beach vacation with her nasal polyps completely resolved. He traced it to one thing: two weeks in a mold-free environment. What followed was decades of research connecting mold and mycotoxins to pituitary damage, cognitive decline, hormonal disruption, gut compromise, and chronic illness that the conventional medical system...

I’m talking about something we’re rarely allowed to admit: I don’t care about everything anymore, and choosing that has made me healthier. We’ve been taught that being a “good person” means emotionally absorbing every crisis, headline, and injustice. The result is empathy fatigue, chronic stress, and nervous systems that never get a chance to reset. I unpack why carrying the emotional weight of the world isn’t empathy, it’s ego. Why caring beyond your ability to act is psychologically irrational. How doomscrolling and outrage culture are draining our mental and physical health....

For a long time, I believed I was waking up and "exiting the matrix." I was involved in New Age spirituality, including astrology, human design, manifestation, psychics, and wellness spaces that promised healing, empowerment, and answers. When I was chronically ill, exhausted, anxious, and desperate for relief, these beliefs felt comforting. They made me feel seen. They made me feel in control. They made me feel powerful. But something was off. In this solo episode, I share my personal journey out of New Age spirituality, including my experience with Medical Medium, psychic culture,...

In this solo episode, I share how I’m preparing for motherhood long before pregnancy begins. It’s a deeply personal look at preconception as a season of nourishment, intention, and responsibility, covering everything from food and hormones to partner health, rest, and mindset. Rather than quick tips or trends, it focuses on creating an internal and external environment where new life can truly thrive. It also gently addresses infertility, stress, and modern pressures with honesty and compassion. If you’re thinking about having a baby someday or simply want to understand what it means to...

info_outlineSpencer Doman joins me to share the life-changing philosophy behind The Doman Method, a globally respected approach to child brain development that’s helped thousands of children, including those with autism and developmental delays, reach their fullest potential.
We talk about the real science of early learning, why the first three years of life are the most important for brain growth, and how everyday parents can shape their child’s cognitive, physical, and emotional foundation—no degree or fancy preschool required.
Spencer explains why movement is brain-building, how screens affect speech and social skills, and what parents can do to nurture strong language, balance, coordination, and curiosity from birth. He also opens up about his grandfather Glenn Doman’s pioneering work, his family’s legacy, and how The Doman Method continues to transform lives today.
Whether you’re a new parent, a soon-to-be parent, or raising a neurodivergent child, this conversation will inspire you to rethink everything you’ve been told about learning—and rediscover your power as your child’s first and most important teacher.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The six pillars of early development: vision, hearing, movement, manual skills, balance, and language
- The link between tummy time, crawling, and reading
- Why real human connection—not screens—builds the strongest brains
- How parents can naturally boost their child’s learning in just 10 minutes a day
- Hope and healing for children with autism and developmental delays
