What truly matters is how we respond to them.Today's guest is Dr. Alison Cook — a psychologist, podcast host, and the author of several books, including her latest, I Shouldn't Feel This Way: Name What's Hard, Tame Your Guilt, and Transform Self-Sabotage into Brave Action.

In fact, that's the topic I wrote my college thesis on. An integrative approach combines conventional medicine with evidence-based alternative and complementary therapies. In this episode, Dr. Connealy and I discuss why cancer rates are at an all-time high, the importance of early detection, alternative screening options, and what an integrative treatment approach truly entails.Suggested Resources:Center for New MedicineDr. Connealy Instagram | Website | Facebook Thermography as an alternative to mammogramsFinancial burden of health careTruth, Lies, & ControversyAn Integrative Approach to Breast Cancer - WellnStrong GuideSafeSleeve Anti-Radiation Phone CaseDefenderShield Laptop ShieldSend me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: SizzlefishLet's talk about fueling your body with the best nature has to offer.

Sometimes, the people in our lives feel like enemies: The colleague who threatens your position at work. The friend who talks behind your back. The person who seems to have it all together—while you are barely hanging on. But the real enemy is the one who is trying to defeat you with lies that lead to isolation, insecurity, and division. I'm so excited to sit down with Jenn Schultz on the show today as we discuss her latest book, She's Not Your Enemy. Jenn is a writer, a wife, and a mom. She's known for sharing her messy faith journey and plenty of scriptures to help remind us that it's ok to be imperfect because our God is perfect enough for us all.

Today, we're exploring something that is all around us yet invisible to the naked eye—Electromagnetic Fields, or EMFs. From the devices in our pockets to the Wi-Fi signals connecting our homes, EMFs are an inescapable part of 21st-century life. But what exactly are they? How do they interact with our bodies, and are they as harmless as they seem—or do they pose risks we should be addressing?That's why I'm so excited to welcome Daniel DeBaun to the show today. Daniel is a globally recognized authority on EMF radiation, shielding technologies, and the health implications of EMF exposure, with a particular emphasis on the impact of devices like laptops, tablets, and smartphones. He is the co-author of Radiation Nation: The Fallout of Modern Technology and serves as the CEO of DefenderShield, a leading company in EMF radiation protection solutions.In this episode, Daniel and I discuss the potential risks associated with EMF radiation, the science behind 5G technology, current FCC exposure guidelines, the most concerning EMF sources, and practical strategies to reduce exposure in everyday life.Suggested Resources:DefenderShieldRadiation Nation: Fallout of Modern TechnologyElectromagnetic field induced biological effects in humans5G Wireless Communication and Health EffectsLAMBS EMF Protection Clothing (code wellnstrong for 15% off)Send me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: SizzlefishLet's talk about fueling your body with the best nature has to offer.

I am beyond excited to kick off the first episode of this new year with someone I recently connected with, but whom I already consider a good friend. Her name is Heidi Lee Anderson. If you've ever struggled with anxiety about the future, this episode is for you. So many questions constantly circulate in our minds, and, despite our best intentions and honest efforts, fear seems to be winning. We know the Bible repeats, “Do not fear,” but how do we do that? What do we do after we've cast our cares on the Lord, memorized Scripture, pumped worship music through every speaker, and yet still feel stuck?  At age 23, Heidi was thrown the biggest curveball of her life when she was diagnosed with cancer. Yet, while struggling to be hopeful amid uncertainty, God showed up for her, as she witnessed 3 jaw-dropping miracles. Heidi is now a speaker, author, podcaster, cancer survivor, mother, and my favorite – a "professional laugher." I'm so excited to share our conversation with you, as Heidi shows us how to live the abundant life God intends for us.Suggested Resources:Heidi Lee Anderson | Website | Instagram | FacebookTrade a Lie for a Truth PodcastP.S.

I'm so excited about today's episode, because I think it's about a topic that is super sensitive, especially around the holidays. And that is the topic of singleness. Join me as I sit down with my new friend Ryan Wekenman, the teaching pastor of Red Rocks Austin, as we discuss all things "singleness." Ryan recently wrote an incredible book called, Single Today: Conquer Yesterday's Regrets, Ditch Tomorrow's Worries, and Thrive Right Where You Are. In this episode, Ryan is sharing his journey as an unmarried pastor for over a decade. He has such a unique perspective on the topic of singleness, and I personally found this conversation so encouraging. Suggested Resources:Ryan Wekenman | Instagram | Single Today PodcastsSingle Today: Conquer Yesterday's Regrets, Ditch Tomorrow's Worries, and Thrive Right Where You AreStephanie May Wilson: How to Love Your Single LifeSend me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: SizzlefishLet's talk about fueling your body with the best nature has to offer.

You may have heard of the expression that God answers prayers in one of three ways. He either answers: “Yes,” “No,” or “Not right now.”  In my prayer life, it is seldom easy for me to clearly figure out which of these three responses He is giving me. Oftentimes, I end up acting like an amateur detective, trying to piece together clues as to what God is telling me to do, so that I can quickly make a decision. I often struggle with waiting when I simply don't have a crystal-clear answer from Him. That's why I'm so excited to sit down and talk with Elizabeth Laing Thompson, about all things “waiting.” Elizabeth is a speaker and novelist, and the author of many inspirational books for women and teens, including All the Feels, All the Feels for Teens, When a Friendship Falls Apart, and the When God Says series. She writes to help others find hope when they're waiting, help when they're hurting, and humor in holiness. My key takeaway? When God makes us “wait,” we can control only two things: how we wait, and who we become along the way.Suggested Resources: Elizabeth Laing Thompson | Website | Instagram | FacebookElizabeth Free Bible Study PlansWait is a four letter wordSend me a text!Timeline's products have quickly become my favorite supplement for added energy, strength, and endurance.

When trials befall us, we're often tempted to question God's goodness or power, and because we want an end to our pain, we try to figure out why God has allowed particular trials into our lives. We reason that if we can just understand what God is doing, we can work towards a way out of our suffering. I am so excited to share with you guys my conversation today with Pastor Matt Howell, as we discuss some profound questions about suffering.  Pastor Matt grew up in Dallas, TX and graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 2003. After graduation, he served as an intern with RUF at LSU for two years where he developed a heart for pastoral ministry and met and married his wife, Kathryn. After 11 years of being a campus minister with RUF, Matt now serves as a pastor at Redeemer Presbyterian Church, in Memphis, Tennessee. While we can't know God's specific reasons for the trials that he allows into our lives, we do know that He has a big-picture purpose for the sufferings we endure.  Suggested ResourcesRedeemer MemphisJoni Eareckson TadaHow to Build a Non-Anxious Life with John DelonySend me a text!Timeline's products have quickly become my favorite supplement for added energy, strength, and endurance.

Send me a text!Today we're talking about the Enneagram and how it can help us grow in our relationships. For those of you not familiar with the enneagram test, it's a personality assessment that helps us understand our emotions and motivations at a deeper level. It also helps us understand and connect with the people we love, whether that's a friend or our family, our coworkers or our spouse. That's why I'm so excited my new friend Meredith Boggs to the show today. Meredith is an expert when it comes to the Enneagram and is the author of the book, The Journey Home; A Biblical Guide to Using the Enneagram to Deepen Your Faith and Relationships. In this episode, Meredith provides an overview of each Enneagram type, as well as each type's core emotions, stress and security expressions, and primary defense mechanisms. Meredith also explains what the enneagram is (and what it's not), and how it can serve as an effective tool for emotional health, empathy, and discipleship.Suggested Resources:Meredith's book: The Journey Home: A Biblical Guide to Using the Enneagram to Deepen Your Faith and RelationshipsMeredith's podcast: The Other HalfThe Road Back to You: An Enneagram Journey to Self-DiscoveryThe Path Between Us: An Enneagram Journey to Healthy RelationshipsQualia Senolytic combines 9 vegan, plant-derived compounds to help your body naturally eliminate zombie (or senescent) cells, that help us age better at the cellular level so we can feel YEARS younger!

Send me a text!Food plays a remarkable role in healing, but the timing of when we eat or abstain can significantly affect our health as well. Fasting serves as a powerful tool to support longevity. It not only triggers the activation of anti-aging genes but also strengthens the immune system by repairing damaged DNA and eliminating compromised cells. Fasting has also been shown to enhance metabolic flexibility, sharpen mental focus, and support consistent energy levels. Today I'm joined by Cynthia Thurlow, NP, the CEO and founder of the Everyday Wellness Project, and international speaker, with over 10 million views for her second TEDx talk (Intermittent Fasting: Transformational Technique). With over 20 years of experience in health and wellness, Cynthia is a globally recognized expert in intermittent fasting and nutritional health, and has been featured on ABC, FOX5, and Entrepreneur among others. Cynthia hosts the Everyday Wellness podcast, considered one of "21 Podcasts To Expand Your Mind in 2021” by Business Insider.

Send me a text!Join me as I speak with Jon Hegarty about his brother Christian's remarkable journey in overcoming a terminal cancer diagnosis. In 2020, Christian was diagnosed with osteosarcoma. His doctors told him his only treatment options were chemotherapy or hospice care. Christian's story illustrates that when conventional medical treatment fails, alternative paths to healing are worth exploring. Willing to try anything, Christian gave himself 5 weeks to explore alternative treatments. He radically changed his mindset, implemented dozens of holistic healing strategies like high-dose vitamin C infusions and mistletoe. To everyone's astonishment, after just 5 weeks, the oncology team at Dana Farber called with shocking news - his tumors had somehow shrunk. Christian is now 2 years into remission. Since then, the brothers have started a non-profit called "GoingWell", that connects cancer survivors like Christian - people who have all but been written off by conventional medicine - to cancer patients who could benefit from their guidance and experience.Suggested Resources:Going WellMistletoe for cancerFenbendazole for cancerUse the code wellnstrong15 for 15% off at North Star GroundingGet my free guide, An Integrative Approach to Healing Breast CancerThis episode is proudly sponsored by Purity Woods.
