Mental health isn’t just a personal issue — it’s one of the largest drivers of healthcare cost, performance, and overall well-being.

In this episode of Healthy Team Healthy Business, we sit down with Nawal Roy, Founder & CEO of Holmusk, to explore how data is transforming the way we understand and treat mental health.

Nawal shares how his company has built one of the largest mental health datasets in the world — and why the current system is failing to properly address the problem.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why mental health is significantly underdiagnosed
• How mental health impacts physical health outcomes
• The broken incentives in the healthcare system
• Why treating symptoms without addressing mental health falls short
• How data and AI could transform mental healthcare

Key Takeaway:

If we don’t start treating mental health as a core healthcare issue, costs will continue to rise — and outcomes will continue to suffer.

In this episode of Healthy Team, Healthy Business, we sit down with Dr. Aaron Hartman of Richmond Integrative & Functional Medicine to explore the REAL root causes behind chronic illnesses — from mold exposure and processed foods to stress, sleep, and environmental toxins.

Dr. Hartman shares why so many patients fall between medical specialties, collect “normal labs,” and still don’t feel well. His systems-based approach connects the dots between the gut, brain, heart, immune system, environment, toxins, diet, and lifestyle — revealing patterns traditional medicine misses.

We discuss powerful stories from his practice, including a business owner who suffered five strokes before discovering the trigger was mold in his home, and how Dr. Hartman helps people recover from chronic Lyme, autoimmune disease, long-COVID, chronic fatigue, and mystery illnesses.

You’ll also hear why:

• 80% of heart disease and 70% of cancers can be prevented with lifestyle
• Processed food and industrial fats are driving metabolic disease
• Stress and sleep are two of the biggest “health levers” for entrepreneurs
• Our healthcare system can’t reverse chronic disease using 15-minute visits
• A functional medicine intake takes hours — and why it needs to
• Wearables, HRV, circadian rhythm, and light exposure matter more than ever
• The future of chronic care will be education-driven, patient-led, and root-cause focused

Whether you’re a leader responsible for a team, someone navigating chronic symptoms, or simply trying to improve your long-term health, this conversation is packed with insight you won’t hear in traditional medical settings.

Today on Healthy Team, Healthy Business, we welcome Dr. Michael Li, a physician who recently opened Valley Obesity Medicine & Diabetes right here in Winchester, Virginia. After over a decade in hospital medicine and serving as Chief Medical Officer at a large community health center, Dr. Li stepped away from the traditional model to build something different — a specialized obesity care practice focused on time, personalization, and root-cause medicine.

Obesity is one of the most pervasive chronic diseases in America, and Dr. Lee shares why so many patients (and physicians) struggle to address it inside the rushed, overloaded primary-care system. He explains how obesity fuels 200+ chronic conditions, why new GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound) are changing the landscape, and what comprehensive obesity care should look like.

From lifestyle medicine and specialized lab work to real talk about bariatric surgery and pharmaceutical options, Dr. Li breaks down what’s working, what’s evolving, and why this epidemic demands a new care model built around time, empathy, and science-based strategies.

What if your oral health could influence your thyroid, sleep and airway, heart and brain, and even your immune system? In this episode of Healthy Team, Healthy Business, the hosts talk with Dr. Sheri Salartash, holistic/biological dentist and founder of Dynamic Dental Wellness, about how dentistry connects to whole-body wellness—and the practical steps anyone can take to protect it.

Dr. Sheri breaks down big topics in simple terms: why fluoride exposure can tangle with thyroid balance, how a “dead tooth” after a root canal can add to the body’s burden, why mouth breathing dries the mouth and disrupts sleep and immunity, and how gum health and bone health are foundational—not just cosmetic. You’ll also hear about in-office markers like salivary pH and nitric oxide and safer at-home options such as nanohydroxyapatite toothpaste.

What You’ll Learn

• Fluoride & thyroid: Why some patients explore fluoride-free care and nanohydroxyapatite as a remineralization alternative.
• Root canals & total load: The “dead tooth” concept, infection risk, and when extraction + restoration may be considered instead.
• Mouth vs. nose breathing: How mouth breathing dries the mouth, acidifies the oral environment, and impacts sleep/airway—especially in kids.
• Gum health = whole-body health: Why bleeding gums and periodontal issues matter for inflammation, heart/brain risk, and metabolic health.
• Clinic measures that matter: Using salivary pH, nitric oxide levels, and oral microbiome awareness to guide care.

About Our Guest

Dr. Sheri Salartash is a holistic/biological dentist and naturopathic practitioner who leads Dynamic Dental Wellness. Her approach blends safe, biocompatible materials with airway-centric care, practical nutrition, and functional insights so patients can heal from the inside out.
