New year, new you, right? Or so they say. I've been asked a lot lately. What my advice is as a doctor this year. So let's go into 2025 doing the thing. Happy New Year, Butthole Breathers. Today I just want to share with you three simple things that I want you to keep in mind this new year. Number one: Start small. If you're not feeling so motivated, January 1st isn’t the time to totally do 180 on your life. That’s okay. Be patient with yourself. If you are so motivated, that’s great too—just remember, if you don’t start right now, it doesn’t mean you won’t start. Number two: How...

We are keeping it things real, practical, and all about living your healthiest life. We are talking to the powerhouse industry disruptor, Dr. Brett Winchester. He’s not just a brilliant chiropractor but also a mentor, colleague, and friend who’s constantly raising the bar in health and wellness. We kicked things off with one of the hottest topics for women’s health; hormone therapy during perimenopause. Ladies, hormone levels can feel as unpredictable as a game of Jenga, right? The ideal age range for hormone therapy is 45 to 55, but starting earlier could be a game-changer. Low estrogen...

This Thanksgiving week, we're focusing on giving yourself permission to prioritize YOU. Over the last couple of weeks, we talked about the stories we tell ourselves and how they can hold us back from feeling less stressed, less pain, and more joy and fulfillment. If you missed those, go back and listen; they’re game-changers. Today, it’s all about permission. Permission to pause, reset, and recharge your system. As someone who thrives on helping others, I’ve learned (the hard way many times) that you can’t give from an empty cup. Whether you’re a celebrity, athlete, or just trying to...
info_outlineI'm thrilled to be joined by Dr. Beau Beard, owner of The Farm, a practice based in Birmingham, Alabama. We're both passionate about the South, so this conversation is going to be a fun and help you understand how sometimes a layered treatment plan is the best course of action.
We're diving into patient stories, focusing on how small, thoughtful interventions can make a big difference in someone's health journey. Dr. Beau shares a fascinating case about a woman in her fifties who had been suffering from migraines her entire life. Despite trying various medications, nothing seemed to work, and her condition had worsened to the point where she had a constant headache for over a month.
Dr. Beau took a holistic approach, starting with a full spine MRI to rule out any major issues. When that came back clear, he began looking at other factors, starting with something as simple as jaw function. He performed a test, showing that she couldn't fit three knuckles in her mouth, a sign that her jaw wasn't working properly. This led to some targeted jaw exercises, which resulted in her migraines starting to improve.
He noticed that she had some weight to lose and wasn't following the healthiest diet. He brought up the importance of hydration and electrolytes, something many patients overlook because they don’t want to deal with the inconvenience of frequent urination. By making small adjustments, like incorporating electrolytes when she felt a migraine coming on, her condition improved even more.
We need to remember the importance of meeting patients where they are and slowly building on each success. He talks about how these interventions, though seemingly small, can lead to significant improvements over time. His goal isn't just to alleviate pain but to help patients become healthier individuals overall, so they leave his office better than before.
We also discuss the broader issues within the medical system, such as the lack of integration and how important it is for doctors to act as guides, helping patients connect the dots and take ownership of their health.
It’s all about understanding the deeper connections in health and taking a holistic approach to care is the key to success.
