Out of Fame and Pain Came Purpose and a Book: A Believer's Perspective
The Debbie Nigro Show
From the Stage to the Soul: Robin Lloyd’s A Believer’s Perspective on Life, Legacy & Faith On the latest episode of The Debbie Nigro Show, I had the real honor of talking with Robin Lloyd—a man whose life journey reads like a Hollywood script… but with a whole lot more heart. Robin started his career as a singer, sharing stages with Marvin Gaye, Tina Turner, James Brown, The Supremes, and more. He was part of the legendary Dick Clark Caravan of Stars, toured with iconic names, and was even managed by Shelly Berger (yep, the longtime manager of The Temptations). But...

info_outlineHey friends, Debbie Nigro here—and yes, I was literally clapping for collagen on the air.
I’ve officially joined the collagen revolution thanks to NativePath, and I feel GOOD about it.
So good, I invited their brilliant co-founder, Dr. Chad Walding, on The Debbie Nigro Show to spill the truth about this stuff that’s got my knees, skin, hair, and even my outlook bouncing back.
Here’s the scoop from our chat…
Collagen Is the Missing Link
According to Dr. Chad, our ancestors used to get collagen naturally from eating “nose to tail.” But today? We’re practically collagen-starved—relying on packaged junk, added sugars, and zero bone broth. Not ideal for staying alive and kicking over 50!
Why Grass-Fed Collagen Matters
Dr. Chad broke down the difference between “happy cows” (grass-fed, hormone-free, sunshine-loving) and sad factory-farmed ones. NativePath’s collagen comes from cows living their best lives—which means better results for your bones, joints, and glow.
Reasons to Take Collagen After 50
Here are just a few:
1. Bone-on-bone pain? Collagen helps rebuild joint tissue.
2. Calcium confusion? Turns out, collagen—not calcium—is the real MVP for bone strength.
3. Skin, hair, and nails? Fast improvement. My hair grew so fast I need to color it more often!
4. Better recovery, more energy, smoother digestion, and the list goes on...
Not All Collagen is Created Equal
Most of what’s out there is low-quality, smelly, clumpy, or made from fish or chicken—not ideal.
NativePath sticks with type 1 and type 3 bovine collagen, the exact kind our bodies crave.
Dr. Chad Walding is passionate about sharing his little-known tips for supporting bone density, soothing joint discomfort, and boosting mobility. I found his information truly enlightening.
I encourage you to go to this link (lovenativepath.com/alive) and read…
7 reasons everyone over 50 should be taking THIS kind of protein
For those who don't know, declining bone and joint health is a major reason we feel sore and stiff in the mornings.
But most importantly, Dr. Chad Walding has seen people achieve incredible reversals with a simple nutritional fix.
Something this simple could help you regain independence and mobility...
even if you think it's too late.
I’m In—and Feeling It
I now put NativePath collagen in my coffee every morning. It’s tasteless, clump-free, and now for me... non-negotiable based on what I’ve learned.
