Episode Description Can eye health supplements actually protect your vision? Or are you wasting money on formulas with zero clinical evidence while your eyesight quietly deteriorates? Dr. Christian Gonzalez ranked the top 5 evidence-based supplements for vision protection, revealing which ones have real clinical data behind them, and which popular options barely move the needle. The reality: Age-related macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in adults over 50, and vision problems are now showing up in people in their 30s and 40s thanks to screen time and nutrient deficiencies. In this episode, Dr. G reveals: • The #1 gold-standard formula proven to reduce advanced macular degeneration risk by 25% backed by government-funded trials with 4,000+ participants • Why omega-3s won't save your macula (but will help something else) • The carotenoid duo that acts as internal sunglasses, filtering blue light directly in the retina • Two emerging supplements with exciting 2024 research, including one spice showing real improvements in retinal function • Exact dosages, forms that actually absorb, and brands worth your money My one stop shop for quality supplements: https://theswellscore.com/pages/drg Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:58 - What's Actually Destroying Your Eyes 3:35 - Supplement #5 7:09 - Supplement #4 10:22 - Supplement #3 13:57 - Supplement #2 17:41 - Honorable Mention 19:09 - Supplement #1 23:20 - Final Thoughts: Protect Your Vision

Get My Brand Masterlist https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Episode Description Can fat burners, probiotics, detox kits, and trendy supplements actually prove they work—or are you wasting money on proprietary blends with zero human outcome data while your health stays the same? Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated the supplement industry with one critical framework: three non-negotiable questions every supplement must pass before it belongs in your cabinet—not just marketing claims and influencer endorsements. The shocking reality? Most supplements fail because they rely on acute stimulation or theoretical mechanisms instead of reproducible human evidence showing measurable improvements in the outcomes you actually care about. The hidden failures in popular supplements: • Fat burner blends that only work through nervous system stress—increasing cortisol, disrupting sleep, and working against sustainable fat loss long-term • Generic probiotics with a few strains marketed as "gut health solutions" when the microbiome • contains hundreds of thousands of species • Expensive detox and liver cleanse kits that rely on laxatives and diuretics instead of supporting the enzyme systems actually doing the work • Probiotics that don't survive gastric acid, don't colonize, and may worsen symptoms in people with histamine sensitivity or SIBO In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez reveals: • The 3-question framework that instantly filters out supplements wasting space in your cabinet • The "try" tier supplements with emerging human data that could be game-changers for the right person • Which supplements scored 8+ out of 10 on evidence—and why most people are buying the wrong forms • The absorption problem no one talks about that makes one popular anti-inflammatory basically useless in standard form • A post-biotic compound most people can't produce enough of naturally—and why it matters after 30 • The amino acid that smooths out caffeine jitters without making you drowsy • Exact doses, timing, and what separates quality brands from contaminated, underdosed products My one stop shop for quality supplements: https://theswellscore.com/pages/drg Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 0:51 - Three questions to ask before buying any supplement 2:52 - Supplements to skip 11:07 - Supplements worth trying 16:25 - Supplements worth buying 21:43 - How to spend your supplement money smarter

Episode Description Can hair growth gummies, biotin, collagen, rosemary oil, and DHT blockers actually prove they work—or are you wasting money on underdosed formulas with zero human evidence while your hair continues thinning? Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated the hair loss supplement industry with one critical question: which supplements have randomized controlled trials showing measurable improvements in hair density and shedding reduction—not just theoretical mechanisms and marketing logic? The shocking reality? Most hair supplements fail because they assume hair loss is about "feeding the hair" when it's really about removing the signals that tell follicles to shut down and shift from growth phase into shedding. The hidden failures in "hair growth" supplements: • Hair gummies and biotin formulas with no randomized trials showing actual density improvements in humans • Generic marine collagen marketed as "hair support" when only specific proprietary marine protein complexes show results • Pumpkin seed powders that strip away the lipid sterols responsible for DHT modulation • Saw palmetto whole berry claims without standardized lipid sterol extraction • Standard turmeric powder with 4% absorption instead of curcumin phytosome forms that reach your scalp • Generic "Vitamin E" using alpha-tocopherol when hair data is based on delta and gamma tocotrienols In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez reveals: • The 5 supplements with actual human evidence for hair growth—ranked by evidence scores (7-8 out of 10) • Why Viviscal's proprietary marine protein complex (Amomar) has the strongest data but isn't the cleanest formulation • How cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil inhibits 5-alpha reductase and reduces DHT without crashing hormones systemically • The lipid sterol extract of saw palmetto that works—and why whole berry powder doesn't • How curcumin phytosome (Meriva, BCM-95) addresses chronic inflammation in the scalp environment • Why mixed tocotrienols protect follicles from oxidative stress better than standard vitamin E • Exact evidence-based doses, realistic timelines (3-6 months minimum), and specific brands Dr. G trusts My one stop shop for quality supplements: https://theswellscore.com/pages/drg Timestamps: 0:00 - Why Most Hair Supplements Fail (3 Critical Reasons) 2:26 - #1: Marine Protein Complex (Viviscal) for Hair Density 4:29 - Forms Matter: How to Buy Quality Marine Complex 6:30 - #2: Pumpkin Seed Oil for DHT Modulation 8:29 - Cold-Pressed vs Powder: Why Forms Matter for Androgens 10:05 - #3: Saw Palmetto Extract for Follicle Protection 12:46 - #4: Curcumin Phytosome for Scalp Inflammation 15:43 - #5: Tocotrienols (Vitamin E Complex) for Oxidative Stress 18:16 - Final Takeaways: Stop Wasting Money on Hair Loss Hype

Episode Description You trust that expensive fish oil is molecularly distilled and free from mercury. You believe your magnesium is actually absorbed. You assume your creatine is pure pharmaceutical-grade powder. But can these brands prove it—or are you swallowing contaminated, oxidized, low-potency supplements that do more harm than good? Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated the supplement industry with one critical question: can the most popular longevity supplements prove they're free from heavy metals, microplastics, and oxidation through third-party testing and Certificates of Analysis (COAs)? The shocking reality? Most can't—or won't—provide basic proof of purity. You're expected to trust your mitochondria, brain health, and long-term performance to manufacturers who refuse transparency about what's actually in the bottle. The hidden dangers lurking in "premium" supplements: • Fish oils contaminated with mercury, lead, microplastics, and oxidized rancid fats that trigger inflammation instead of reducing it • Magnesium oxide marketed as "magnesium" with 4% absorption—meaning you're literally flushing your money down the toilet • Creatine cut with heavy metals, banned substances, and fillers that negate performance benefits and contaminate your system • Vitamin D formulated in seed oils and synthetic carriers that interfere with absorption and create inflammatory byproducts • Fiber supplements loaded with inulin blends and maltodextrin that spike blood sugar and cause severe digestive distress • Zero verification of potency claims—dosages listed on labels that have no relationship to what third-party testing reveals inside • Supplements stored in conditions that degrade active ingredients months before expiration dates In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez reveals: • The 5 most studied supplements for longevity, brain power, and energy—and exactly how to buy the cleanest versions • Why Omega-3 fish oils are either your greatest longevity tool or a toxic inflammatory bomb depending on purity testing • The one form of magnesium that actually works (and the three forms that are complete scams stealing your money) • How creatine monohydrate boosts ATP in your muscles AND brain—but only if it passes strict third-party certification • Why Vitamin D without K2 can calcify your arteries while you think you're "optimizing" your health • The soluble fiber that lowers all-cause mortality by 11%—and why most fiber supplements use the wrong type • Exact evidence-based doses, timing strategies, and quality markers so you never waste money on fairy dust formulas again • The certifications that actually matter: IFOS, NSF, Informed Sport, Creapure, and why "GMP certified" means nothing • How to read COAs and spot red flags in oxidation scores, heavy metal panels, and microplastic screening This episode goes beyond basic supplementation—it's about understanding that your cellular membranes, mitochondrial function, and long-term disease prevention depend on purity, not marketing. It's about demanding proof before putting daily supplements into your body, and recognizing that the supplement industry profits from your trust, not your health outcomes. The supplement industry doesn't want you asking for COAs. But your brain, heart, and longevity depend on it.

Get My Brand Masterlist https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Episode Description You see "supports hormonal balance" on the label and trust your estrogen supplement is pure, potent, and safe. But are you actually getting what you paid for—or playing Russian roulette with your hormones? Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated the estrogen supplement industry with one critical question: can these brands prove their products are free from heavy metal contamination, maintain potency through expiration, and deliver the exact hormone dosage claimed on the label through third-party Certificates of Analysis (COAs)? The shocking reality? Most companies can't—or won't—provide basic proof of purity and potency. You're expected to trust your delicate hormonal system to manufacturers who refuse transparency about what's actually in the bottle. This isn't about being overly cautious—it's about protecting your endocrine system, bone health, and long-term vitality from contaminated or ineffective hormone supplementation. When you consume estrogen supplements without verified purity testing, you risk hormonal disruption, heavy metal accumulation, and health consequences that could take years to manifest. The hidden dangers lurking in estrogen supplements: • Heavy metal contamination including lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury that bioaccumulate and disrupt hormonal pathways • Potency deception: hormone levels guaranteed only at manufacturing, not expiration—meaning dosing becomes unpredictable over time • Undisclosed synthetic additives and fillers that interfere with estrogen metabolism and liver detoxification • Contamination from yeast, mold, and bacteria in raw materials that trigger inflammatory immune responses • Dosage inconsistency between what's listed on the label and what third-party testing actually reveals in the capsule • Zero verification of bioidentical claims—you could be taking synthetic estrogens marketed as natural In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez reveals: • Why the estrogen supplement industry operates with virtually zero accountability for purity, potency, or safety standards • The critical difference between bioidentical and synthetic estrogen—and why most brands can't prove which one they're selling • How heavy metal-contaminated estrogen supplements create a double assault on your endocrine system and detox pathways • The liver burden, breast tissue sensitivity, and cardiovascular risks amplified by low-quality estrogen supplementation • Why COAs (Certificates of Analysis) are the ONLY way to verify what's actually in your supplement—and why most brands refuse to provide them • The regulatory loopholes allowing estrogen supplements to skip third-party testing and still make bold health claims • Safer, cleaner alternatives for supporting estrogen balance through whole-food sources and lifestyle optimization This episode goes beyond hormone replacement—it's about understanding that estrogen influences everything from bone density and brain function to cardiovascular health and cancer risk. It's about demanding proof before putting synthetic or contaminated hormones into your body daily, and recognizing that the supplement industry profits from your trust, not your health outcomes. The estrogen supplement industry doesn't want you asking for COAs. But your hormonal health depends on it.

Get My Brand Masterlist https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Get Probiotics Guide https://drchristiangonzalez.com/probiotic-pdf-request-form/ Episode Description You trust the probiotic label that says "clinically studied strains" and "supports gut health." But a shocking new investigation reveals most brands can't prove it. Dr. Christian Gonzalez reached out to 56 of the biggest probiotic companies—including Seed, VSL#3, Garden of Life, Ritual, and Thorne—with one simple request: show proof your strains survive stomach acid, maintain potency through expiration, and are tested for heavy metals, yeast, and mold contamination through Certificates of Analysis (COAs). The results? Fifty-three brands disappeared, dodged questions, or flat-out refused to respond. Only THREE companies could stand behind their claims with real data. This isn't about being picky—it's about protecting your gut microbiome, immune system, and mental health from paying premium prices for mystery powders. When you consume contaminated or ineffective probiotics daily, you're wasting money on dead bacteria that never colonize your gut—or worse, introducing toxins that worsen bloating, immune stress, and digestive dysfunction. The hidden problems lurking in popular probiotic supplements: • Dead on arrival strains that can't survive stomach acid or bile—rendering them completely useless before reaching your intestines • CFU deception: potency guaranteed only at manufacturing, not expiration—meaning you're getting a fraction of what's promised • Heavy metal contamination including lead, arsenic, and cadmium that accumulate in your system and disrupt gut healing • Mold, yeast, and bacterial contamination from compromised sourcing and manufacturing that can trigger inflammation and immune reactions • Unverified strain claims with zero genetic testing to prove what's actually in the capsule matches the label • Proprietary blends designed to hide inferior ingredients and avoid accountability for specific strain efficacy In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez exposes the 2025 Probiotic Purity Audit and reveals: • The full list of 56 brands tested—and which major names refused to respond or failed safety and efficacy standards • The ONLY 3 probiotic brands that passed with radical transparency, clean COAs, survivability data, and verified potency at expiration • The $70+ billion marketing manipulation behind "clinically studied" and "gut health support" claims that mean nothing without third-party verification • Strain specificity: why this is the only metric that matters for true gut colonization and therapeutic benefit • How contaminated probiotics actively harm your microbiome, worsen digestive symptoms, and waste your money on expensive filler • The gut-brain axis disruption, immune dysfunction, and inflammatory cascade triggered by low-quality probiotic supplementation This episode goes beyond gut health—it's about understanding that your microbiome controls everything from mood and immunity to hormone balance and disease prevention. It's about taking back control of what colonizes your body every single day, and demanding transparency from an industry built on marketing hype, not real science. The probiotic industry doesn't want you asking these questions. But your gut health depends on it.

Get My Brand Masterlist https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Episode Description You trust the electrolyte label that says "clean hydration" and "pure minerals." But a shocking new investigation reveals most brands can't prove it. Dr. Christian Gonzalez reached out to 33 of the biggest electrolyte companies—including Liquid I.V., LMNT, Ultima, Nuun, and Trace Minerals—with one simple request: show proof your minerals are tested for heavy metals, PFAS, mold, and contaminants through Certificates of Analysis (COAs). The results? Twenty-five brands disappeared, dodged questions, or flat-out refused to respond. Only EIGHT companies could stand behind their claims with real data. This isn't about being picky—it's about protecting your cellular function, nervous system, and hormonal balance from daily toxic exposure. When you consume contaminated electrolytes multiple times a day, you're compounding exposure to chemicals that disrupt every electrical signal in your body, from mood regulation to heartbeat. The hidden contaminants lurking in popular electrolyte powders: • PFAS (Forever Chemicals) linked to hormonal imbalance, thyroid disruption, and immune dysfunction • Heavy metals including arsenic, lead, and cadmium that accumulate in tissues and impair detoxification • Mold and bacterial contamination from compromised mineral sourcing and manufacturing • Synthetic fillers like artificial sweeteners, colors, and flow agents that burden your liver • Toxic packaging that makes the container itself part of the contamination problem In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez exposes the 2025 Electrolyte Purity Audit and reveals: • The full list of 33 brands tested—and which ones refused to respond or failed safety standards • The ONLY 8 electrolyte brands that passed with transparency, clean COAs, and verified testing • Why major names like Liquid I.V., Ultima, Nuun, Dr. Berg, and Thorne couldn't (or wouldn't) provide proof • The marketing manipulation behind "clean hydration" and "pure mineral" claims • How to identify truly clean electrolytes and protect yourself from daily mineral contamination • The cellular damage, hormonal disruption, and nervous system dysfunction caused by chronic electrolyte toxin exposure This episode goes beyond hydration—it's about understanding that electrolytes control your body's cellular electricity. It's about taking back control of what you put in your body every single day, and demanding transparency from an industry built on marketing hype, not real science.

But a shocking new investigation reveals most brands can't prove it. Dr. Christian Gonzalez reached out to 19 of the biggest bottled water companies with one simple request: show proof your water is tested for PFAS, heavy metals, microplastics, and industrial solvents. The results? Fourteen brands disappeared or flat-out refused to respond. Only FOUR companies could stand behind their claims with real data.

The hidden toxins lurking in "clean" bottled water: • PFAS (Forever Chemicals) linked to hormonal imbalance, reduced sperm quality, and thyroid disruption • Microplastics found in up to 93% of bottled water globally, leaching endocrine-disrupting phthalates and BPA • Heavy metals like arsenic and lead from contaminated sources or outdated bottling systems • VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) including dry cleaning solvents and gasoline additives from industrial runoff • Toxic packaging that makes the bottle itself part of the problem In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez exposes the 2025 Bottled Water Audit and reveals: • The full list of 19 brands tested—and which ones refused to respond • The ONLY 4 bottled water brands that passed with transparency and clean testing • Why major names like Evian, Fiji, Spindrift, and Liquid Death couldn't (or wouldn't) provide proof • The marketing manipulation behind "pure" and "spring" water labels • How to identify truly clean water and protect yourself from daily contamination • The endocrine disruption, liver burden, and nervous system damage caused by chronic water toxin exposure This episode goes beyond hydration. It's about taking back control of what you put in your body every single day, and demanding transparency from an industry built on marketing mystique, notreal science.

Get My Brand Masterlist https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Get Dry Cleaning Guide https://drchristiangonzalez.com/dry-cleaning-pdf-request-form/ Episode Description You might think liver damage comes from alcohol or sugar. But a new USC study reveals the real threat could be hanging in your closet. If you dry clean your clothes even once or twice a month, you're exposing yourself to Perchloroethylene (PCE)—a toxic solvent now strongly linked to liver fibrosis, brain fog, cancer, and even Parkinson's disease. This isn't just a factory worker problem. For many people, routine dry cleaning is the hidden environmental exposure driving chronic health issues no doctor can explain. PCE doesn't just disappear after cleaning. It off-gasses into your home, absorbs through your skin, and accumulates in your liver and nervous system. And the majority of dry cleaners still use it. Without asking the right questions, you have no idea what chemicals are saturating the fabrics touching your body every single day. And your liver, brain, and nervous system are paying the price. In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez breaks down the USC Keck study and reveals how to protect yourself from this silent toxin: • Why dry cleaning increases your odds of liver fibrosis by 3X • The neurotoxic chemical triggering brain fog, headaches, and nervous system dysregulation • The Cancer and Parkinson's link researchers are now confirming • The exact 3 questions to ask your dry cleaner today to protect your family • The PFAS trap hiding in stain-proof and wrinkle-free fabrics (forever chemicals that never leave your body) • How PCE contaminates local groundwater and creates toxic exposure for entire communities This episode goes beyond your closet. It's a wake-up call about the pervasive, invisible toxins lurking in everyday life—and how to take action now to protect your liver, stabilize your nervous system, and reclaim your health.

Get My Brand Masterlist https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Get My Green Powder Masterlist https://drchristiangonzalez.com/green-powder-pdf-claim-form/ Episode Description Green powders are everywhere, but most of them are toxic dust with a health halo. Out of 25 green powder companies Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated, only 6 proved they're actually safe to drink. The rest? 19 companies completely ignored basic safety questions. That means the majority of green powders flooding your feed can't even prove they're free of heavy metals, pesticides, mold, or glyphosate. Green powders promise detox, energy, and vitality. But when they're grown in contaminated soil or processed with high heat, they can do the exact opposite—bioaccumulating toxins in your brain, liver, kidneys, and bones. The very systems you're trying to protect become the targets. Without third-party testing and certificates of analysis, you have no idea what you're actually scooping into your morning routine. And your nervous system is paying the price. In this episode, Dr. G exposes which major wellness brands refused transparency and reveals the only 6 green powder products worth your money in 2025: • Why do greens like spirulina and chlorella absorb heavy metals like lead, arsenic, and cadmium? • Which green powder companies provided full certificates of analysis? • How does processing (freeze-dried vs. heat-dried) destroy up to 70% of nutrients? • What role do green powders play in detoxification, gut health, and mitochondrial function?

Get My Brand Masterlist https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2/ Get Creatine Brand List https://drchristiangonzalez.com/creatine-pdf-request-form/ Episode Description Creatine is one of the most studied supplements in the world, yet most of what's on the shelves is garbage. Out of 34 creatine companies Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated, only 5 made the cut. The rest? 22 companies ignored his questions entirely. 7 responded but failed to provide complete certificates of analysis. That means the majority of creatine on the market can't even prove it's safe. Creatine isn't just for bodybuilders. It powers your brain, protects your neurons under stress, fights age-related muscle loss, and emerging research shows it may even help with depression and neurodegenerative diseases. But without third-party testing, you're left guessing what's actually in the product; and your nervous system pays the price. In this episode, Dr. G exposes which brands refused transparency and reveals the only 5 creatine products worth your money in 2025: • Why are heavy metals, pesticides, and solvents hiding in creatine? • Which creatine companies provided full certificates of analysis? • What's the clinical sweet spot for dosing creatine safely? • How does creatine protect your brain, not just your muscles?

Meghan Ottolini and Jon Lyons fill in tonight and give their reactions to a subpar trade deadline for the Patriots. For the first time since the offseason, the power structure is in focus between Mike Vrabel and Eliot Wolf. Then, with a wide open AFC, the chance was there for the Pats and they blew the opportunity which could haunt them by season's end. And, looming extensions for guys like Christian Gonzalez and Drake Maye could be the cloud surrounding New England that no one is talking about.
What's slowly creeping up on the Patriots are high-priced extensions to give guys like Christian Gonzalez and Drake Maye. These could be one of the reasons, bad or not, that the Pats didn't make a trade at the deadline yesterday.
(00:00) Albert Breer of SI and MMQB joins Zolak & Bertrand live to recap the Patriots lack of moves at the trade deadline. (13:40) Albert Breer gives his thoughts on the Sauce Gardner trade and if the Patriots would or should consider a similar trade if offered for Christian Gonzalez.

Dr. Christian Gonzalez breaks down the federal class action lawsuit accusing Chobani of selling yogurt contaminated with phthalates — plastic chemicals linked to hormonal disruption, lower testosterone, fertility issues, and even cancer. But here's what the headlines got wrong. These chemicals aren't ingredients. They are contaminants that leach in from the plastic equipment used throughout modern food production. In this episode, Dr. G separates fear from fact and answers the real questions: • What is this lawsuit actually about? • How do phthalates end up in your yogurt? • What does bioaccumulation mean and why does it matter for your hormones? • Which yogurt brands actually test clean?

The Cookware That's Secretly Poisoning Your Food Not all cookware is created equal. After months of investigating 21 major cookware brands, Dr. Christian Gonzalez uncovered a truth the industry doesn't want you to know: only one passed his strict standards for safety, transparency, and purity. Most companies, including billion-dollar icons like Le Creuset, Caraway, All-Clad, HexClad, and GreenPan - either ignored requests for safety data, relied on toxic PFAs coatings, or hid behind influencer marketing. In this episode, Dr. G exposes which brands are quietly contaminating your food, the dangerous materials to avoid, and how to choose cookware that protects your brain, hormones, and nervous system.

Sign up for our newsletter! https://drchristiangonzalez.com/newsletter/ Episode Description: Have you ever noticed that talking about your trauma sometimes makes you feel worse? That's because talking only trims the branches—it doesn't touch the roots. In this week's episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez sits down with Anna Runkle, creator of the viral movement The Crappy Childhood Fairy, to explore why traditional talk therapy often fails to heal trauma — and what actually does. Anna shares how, after years of therapy that left her feeling worse, she discovered one simple, daily nervous system practice that changed everything. Within two weeks, her PTSD symptoms were gone — and her life was never the same. What We Cover • Hidden signs of trauma most people miss including disorientation, clumsiness, and feeling “off” for no reason • Why talking about trauma can backfire, and how to create space for real emotional processing • Emotional flashbacks explained and how preverbal trauma silently shapes adult choices in love, work, and life • Nervous system regulation techniques that bring rapid relief and help you reconnect to yourself • Anna's expressive writing method that helped her clear PTSD in two weeks • How trauma-driven decisions shape entire lives — from partners to careers — and how to break the cycle • The surprising power of simple movement for emotional regulation • A practical boundary phrase that shuts down conflict without drama • Talking ≠ healing. Over-talking about trauma can keep the nervous system dysregulated. • Regulation first, insight second. Healing begins when the body feels safe. • Old patterns drive new problems. Many adult struggles are rooted in unconscious trauma responses. • Healing can start fast. You don't need years of suffering to feel relief — the right tools can shift things quickly. • Connection is the goal. Regulating your nervous system opens the door to deeper relationships and real belonging. About the Guest Anna Runkle, known online as The Crappy Childhood Fairy, is a bestselling author, trauma educator, and creator of one of the internet's fastest-growing trauma-healing communities. Her approach to recovery focuses on nervous system healing, emotional regulation, and practical, self-guided tools for real-world transformation.
