#249 - What happens when the thing you're most tempted to hide becomes the reason other people feel brave? Fashion designer and artist Wildy Martinez joins me for a conversation that moves from New York City childhood memories in Washington Heights and the Bronx to a hard-earned kind of confidence that only comes from being seen. Wildy shares what it was like growing up first-gen Dominican, learning independence early, and using imagination as a way to build a world bigger than her block. We talk about her path into fashion, from sketching as a kid to studying at FIT and working in the industry, plus the pressure that can come with trying to be “cool” when you're a young teen who actually loves school. Then the story pivots into the pandemic reset that sparked Wildflower Fields, her creative umbrella for fashion, art, and storytelling, and how the NFT wave introduced her to new ways of thinking about digital art, proof of ownership, and legacy. At the center is vitiligo. Wildy breaks down what vitiligo is as an autoimmune condition, what it felt like to spend more than a decade covering her skin, and why representation matters for kids and adults who are living with visible differences. We also get into AI in creativity, the ethics of who gets represented in datasets, and how tools can be used to expand human imagination rather than erase it. If you've ever felt different, underestimated, or stuck hiding a part of yourself, this one will land.

If you're dealing with a dermatographia rash or chronic hives, you may have been told that histamine intolerance is to blame. But if you're avoiding high-histamine foods, taking antihistamines, and trying to control every possible trigger while your skin STILL reacts, there may be more to the story.In this episode, I'm sharing the important difference between histamine intolerance and what I call histamine overload. You'll also hear Sonia's story of going from highly reactive dermatographia to clear skin, reintroducing foods she loved but avoided, and even enjoying a hot, sunny trip to Mexico without her dermatographia skin flaring.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Register NOW for the Fix My Skin Workshops where I'll walk you through this same process

What do you do when your eczema treatment plan isn't working even though testing uncovers root cause issues? This was a reality that Jenn faced after years struggling with eczema and a hellish two-year topical steroid withdrawal (TSW) journey. She tried multiple protocols and even an aggressive parasite treatment, yet her eczema barely improved.Now that her skin has healed, it's natural to ask what changed! Her turning point wasn't another supplement, elimination diet, or harder-hitting protocol. In this episode, I'm sharing Jenn's eczema healing journey, why chasing one potential root cause after another can keep you stuck, the reason why “die-off” doesn't mean your protocol is working, and what steps actually made the difference to finally help Jenn's get calm, clear skin.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Register NOW for the Fix My Skin Workshops where I'll walk you through this same process

After more than 10 years of battling psoriasis, my client Marc felt like he'd tried everything: elimination diets, supplements, creams, high-dose vitamin D, and even UVB light therapy. After all the research he'd done, nothing created the lasting change he wanted, leaving him wondering why his skin wasn't responding, despite doing everything “right”. The turning point in Marc's psoriasis healing journey came when he stopped approaching his skin like everyone else online based on the common, but faulty assumption that everyone with psoriasis has the same underlying problems. In this episode, I share what happened when Marc finally stopped guessing and we looked at his labs and case history through a different lens. The changes were so remarkable that even his dermatologist was amazed by how much his skin had improved.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Register NOW for the Fix My Skin Workshops where I'll walk you through this same process

For years, I quietly dealt with painful Hidradenitis Suppurativa until a surprising conversation with a friend told me how laser hair removal was a gamechanger for her HS. I was skeptical, but it ultimately became the HS treatment that made the biggest difference in my flares.In this episode, I'm sharing my experience with this treatment, who is most likely to benefit, types of lasers that work best, and how to possibly get this covered by your insurance. While this isn't a “root cause” fix for HS, it certainly can bring you relief if you're the right candidate for it, AND what you can do to then get at what's driving all that inflammation in the first place!⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references + the HS laser hair removal insurance request form

What happens when you stop letting your past define how you see yourself? In this episode of Real With Omar, Omar sits down with James McLeod, “That Vitiligo Guy,” for a raw conversation about transformation, self-worth, faith, entrepreneurship, and finding purpose in the experiences that once made you feel different. James opens up about his journey from incarceration to building a life centered around giving others hope. He shares how his experiences with vitiligo, bullying, prison, business, and faith shaped the man he is today and ultimately gave him a story that could impact others. Omar and James get into the importance of showing up, building your value, doing the work when no one is watching, and understanding that success is about far more than what other people see on the outside. They also talk about James's work with children and schools, his books The Boy Behind the Face and My Daily Superpowers, and why learning to look at yourself without judgment can change the way you show up for the rest of your life. In this episode: * Going from “selling dope to giving hope” * Life after incarceration and the lessons James carried with him * Faith, purpose, and believing there's a bigger plan * Living with vitiligo and learning to embrace what makes you different * Self-image, self-worth, and the way we speak to ourselves * Turning experiences with bullying into empathy for others * Why simply showing up is only the beginning * Building value before expecting the reward * Entrepreneurship, discipline, and doing the work * Using your story to positively impact the next generation Your past is part of your story. It doesn't have to determine what happens next. Sometimes the thing you once wanted to hide becomes the exact thing you were meant to use to help somebody else.

If your face has gotten redder, more reactive and burning in your in your 40s or 50s (or your rosacea seems much worse), perimenopause rosacea could be an important piece of the puzzle. Emerging research suggests shifting hormone levels can trigger and also influence rosacea symptoms, including acne bumps, reactive skin, flushing, burning, stinging + increased skin sensitivity.Before you JUST blame this all on hormones, hormone-triggered rosacea must be looked at from a few different perspectives. In this episode, I'm diving into fascinating research connecting hormones, your gut microbiome + rosacea severity, plus what to consider when the usual rosacea fixes aren't giving you sustainable results.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references

O Carlos é um homem preto que vive com vitiligo universal, o que fez com que ele perdesse a pigmentação de toda a pele e passasse a ser lido socialmente como um homem branco. Mas se a cor da pele dele mudou, as experiências que ele viveu como homem preto no Brasil continuam e se acentuam quando ele passa a ser lido como um homem branco.O vitiligo começou a se manifestar quando ele tinha cerca de oito anos. A primeira mancha apareceu no joelho. Quando o Carlos finalmente recebeu o diagnóstico, ouviu que a doença não tinha cura e que poderia ficar completamente branco.Carlos passou a esconder o corpo. Evitava bermudas, deixava de participar das aulas de educação física e tentava mostrar o mínimo possível das manchas. O que não doía, não coçava e não transmitia começou a produzir sofrimento de outra forma: pelo olhar das pessoas.E enquanto tentava entender o que estava acontecendo com sua pele, Carlos também começava a compreender que havia outra questão atravessando sua história: ele era um homem preto.Conforme o vitiligo avançava, sua aparência mudava. E ele percebeu isso de uma forma inesperada no trabalho de vendedor numa loja na Barra da Tijuca, no Rio.Quanto mais branca sua pele ficava, melhor ele passava a ser tratado pelos clientes. Sua conversão em vendas chegou a aumentar nesse período.Carlos começou a perceber que talvez não fosse apenas a sua pele que estivesse mudando. Era como as pessoas o enxergavam agora: como um homem branco.E essa nova leitura não apaga as experiências de racismo que viveu antes da despigmentação. Nem as situações que continuam acontecendo quando está ao lado do pai, um homem preto, ou quando alguém se sente confortável para fazer um comentário racista acreditando que Carlos pensa como eles.Quando finalmente percebeu que estava completamente branco, ele não sentiu que tinha vencido alguma coisa. Pelo contrário, ele não se reconhecia no espelho.Foi na terapia que começou a reconstruir essa relação com a própria imagem e entender que aquela mudança não apagava quem ele era.

He has published more than 100 medical articles and is internationally recognized for his work on osteoporosis and fracture prevention.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references

¿Realmente qué tanto sabemos sobre vitiligo? Lalo, nos resuelve todas nuestras dudas SIN FILTRO ¡Solo por TRC Radio!

It's easy to blame yourself when medications like Dupixent, Adbry, or Ebglyss don't work (or work well enough), your doctor says that you've “failed” it and it's time to move on to something else. Very often, no one is asking, "Why wasn't Dupixent able to work in the first place?" which could uncover important clues about your eczema case potentially lurking under the surface.Because YOU didn't fail the drug, and before moving on to something else, this is what you absolutely need to consider.Plus, we'll talk about a little-known warning in the safety information for Dupixent and other IL-13-blocking biologics specifically about parasites. So let's dive into what I've seen in clients prescribed these medications and why what looks like drug failure to their doctor could be an important root cause clue.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references

But as this episode reveals, parasites can show up in unexpected ways, including constipation, chronic skin rashes, and symptoms unrelated to digestion.Join me to unpack three common parasite myths that you cannot trust. And believing in them keeps you from healing while distracting you from important clues in your own health journey.

www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcastBefore the moonwalk. Before the glove. Before Neverland, before the tabloids, before the world decided it knew exactly who Michael Jackson was — there was a kid in Gary, Indiana who wasn't allowed to touch his father's guitar.Most people know the legend. Few know the price.Michael Jackson didn't have a childhood. He had rehearsals. He had a belt across the chair and a father who saw dollar signs where other dads saw sons. By the time he was eight years old he was performing in nightclubs, watching the adult world at its worst, and being told that was normal. It wasn't normal. None of it was.And yet — out of all of that — came Thriller. The moonwalk. Four consecutive number one singles before he was twelve. A catalog worth billions. A chimp in a matching outfit eating dinner at the table.But also Neverland. Also the allegations. Also a death that still doesn't sit right.This week we start at the beginning — Gary, Indiana, Joe Jackson, the Apollo Theater, Motown, Quincy Jones, and the private world Michael built when he finally had enough money to build whatever he wanted. We get into the stuff most people don't know, the stuff that actually explains everything, and we set the table for what's coming in Part 2.And trust us — Part 2 gets dark.Timestamps:00:00 — Intro, Patreon shoutouts & gas prices somehow leading to Michael Jackson04:00 — Why we're covering MJ now & our bias going in (we love him, sue us)07:00 — Gary, Indiana: the two-bedroom house, 11 people, and Joe Jackson11:00 — Joe discovers the boys' talent & the rehearsals begin — belt on the chair13:00 — Michael describes the abuse & why the sight of his father made him physically ill15:00 — "Big Nose" — the nickname that quietly explains everything about his face16:00 — The Jackson 5 is born & Michael joins at six years old18:00 — Winning the Apollo, Gladys Knight, Berry Gordy & the Motown signing19:00 — Diana Ross "presents" them — the marketing ploy that worked perfectly20:00 — Four consecutive number ones straight out the gate, Jacksonmania hits22:00 — Growing up backstage in nightclubs — what Michael saw at age 7 and 823:00 — His Grammy speech: "My childhood was taken away from me"25:00 — Was it worth it?

Today I am joined by Erika Page! Erika is the Founder, CEO, and Editor-in-Chief of Living Dappled, a blog and community for women with vitiligo, an autoimmune disease that causes loss of pigment. After getting vitiligo at the age of seven, she lost 100% of her skin's pigment and fought her own mental and emotional battles to overcome her insecurities and embrace her skin. In 2016, she decided to fill a lack of results in a Google search for “vitiligo” with the resource she needed—and founded Living Dappled to help educate, support, and inspire the 1% of the population with this condition. Erika has spoken at the U.S. World Vitiligo Day conference and has been featured in PEOPLE, WebMD, and Love What Matters. She was named one of the Top 10 Most Influential Vitiligans from 2020-2022. Today she is an avid patient advocate and sought-after leader within the vitiligo community dedicated to raising awareness for the condition and helping other women with vitiligo reclaim their lives by finding health and happiness.In this episode, Erika and I chat about her personal experience living with vitiligo, why she started Living Dappled, why representation is so important, how her side hustle became her full time job, what she would tell her 7 year old self, and so much more! Erika's InstagramLiving Dappled InstagramLiving Dappled WebsiteWorth Days

Durante algunos años, Imanol visitó a una doctora para tratar su vitiligo. Iba acompañado de su papá, que estaba un poco obsesionado con encontrar un tratamiento eficaz para su hijo.

Is it just an eczema (atopic dermatitis) flare or could it be something else?

Are oxalates really the villain in your diet that they're made out to be?If you've dealt with kidney stones or spiraled down a health forum rabbit hole, you've probably heard that a high oxalate diet is responsible for joint pain, leaky gut + chronic skin problems. But does cutting out high oxalate foods truly fix the problem—or is it just part of the story?In this episode, we're unpacking what oxalates really are, why your levels might be high (spoiler: it's not always your diet), best tests for oxalates, strategies to lower oxalates (beyond just eating low oxalate foods), and the deeper root causes of high oxalates that most people miss—like candida overgrowth, gut imbalances, and even heavy metals.Confused by the oxalate fear-mongering?

Could your fatigue, bloating, or random skin rashes be more than “just stress” or IBS? You might be shocked to learn they could actually be signs of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or even colon cancer — yes, it's possible without having obvious digestive symptoms.It's unfortunately common to discover that you have Crohn's or ulcerative colitis in your 60s, and not because of gut issues… but during a routine colonoscopy screening. Others are misdiagnosed for years while battling brain fog, thyroid problems, skin issues like psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema, or even unexplained anemia — all while the real problem quietly worsens.I'm joined by Dr. Ilana Gurevich, a naturopathic gastroenterologist who specializes in complex GI disorders. We dive into the hidden signs of IBD, how it differs from IBS, sneaky signs of colon cancer (especially with skyrocketing rates), and the TRUTH about colonoscopies – why you should absolutely stop putting it off and never use a stool test for gut health as a replacement.If you've been brushed off, gaslit, or still searching for answers, you don't want to miss this.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references
