    Episode 35 - My Conversation with Tom Mitchell about Functional Treatment and American Health Care.
    Sep 26 2026
    In this episode, I had a conversation with Tom Mitchell about functional treatment and American healthcare. We talked about American healthcare when it comes to functional treatment. What is functional treatment, and proper care when it comes to patient care? We discussed US healthcare and issues that we, as patients and providers, face when it comes to the disconnect in patient care. We talked about programming the body to match the mind, and how resilience gets built before you need it. We discussed how people show up with pain, weight they can't shake, or fatigue that won't quit, and the real work is syncing the physical systems with the mental patterns that keep them stuck. Why people wants root-cause answers, not more generic wellness noise? A little about Tom Mitchell, he is Clinic Director at Chicago Institute for Health and Wellness, and has spent 20 years practicing functional medicine with one stubborn question behind everything he does: what's actually wrong, and why? He brought together chiropractic care, applied kinesiology, functional movement, and clinical nutrition, including some training concepts that he developed around neuro-stabilization. I've broken multiple national bench press records and a world record in the World Drug Free Power-lifting Association, so when I talk performance and recovery and is speaking from under the bar, not just behind a desk. It was a great conversation, and I hope that you enjoy and learn from the conversation.

  • Episode 34- My Conversation with Jobert E. Abueva about The Janus Plan: Beating the Procrastination Trap.

    Episode 34- My Conversation with Jobert E. Abueva about The Janus Plan: Beating the Procrastination Trap.
    Sep 12 2026
    In this episode, I had a conversation with Jobert E. Abueva about The Janus Plan: Beating the Procrastination Trap. We spoke about procrastination traps that keep people from reaching their goals, moving on from negative situations, overcoming low self-esteem, self-love, self-respect, self-worth, self-value, self-confidence, and believing in yourself when no one else does, and lowering yourselves to build other people up. When many people think about procrastination, they think about people who are lazy and have no inspiration. He breaks down the Janus Plan when it comes to beating the procrastination traps that are keeping you from reaching your goals and the path, purpose, and journey that you are meant to be on. He spoke on mindful cleansing & global rituals when it comes to detoxing the mind from the past and things that are keeping you stagnant, stuff, and procrastination. We spoke on why people's New Year's resolutions are broken by February. How to go about overcoming fear and insecurities that keep you procrastinating and quitting? How can our relationship with our parents be the cause of not doing the things that you can actually do, due to making you feel less than what you are, and breaking your self-esteem and self-worth? A little about Jobert E. Abueva: he is an MBA, TEDx speaker ("Beyond Resolutions: The Art of Beginning with Intention"), and award-winning author whose work has appeared in The New York Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer. Jobert is warm, articulate, and deeply relatable. Instead, he developed a flexible, 6-step framework—inspired by Janus, the two-faced Roman god of thresholds and transitions—to help people reflect on the past, clear mental and physical clutter, and build sustainable life momentum without punitive pressure.This was a great conversation, and hopefully there will be a second conversation coming soon. I hope you guys enjoy the episode.

    Episode 33-My Conversation with Brian Parker About Energy and the Energy Drink ELIXIR.
    Aug 15 2026
    In this episode, I have a conversation with Brian Parker about his product ELIXIR and the four parts of energy. He goes into his journey from being a doctor to creating his energy drink ELIXIR. We went very much in depth about energy when it comes to healing and recovery, as far as your health and wellness internally and externally, sleep, mental, and emotional. He developed a science-backed framework called The Four Energy Leaks: Alertness, Momentum, Attention, and Recovery. He identifies where their energy is actually being lost and how to take it back, without relying on the usual advice to just sleep more, exercise more, and do more. A little bit about Brian Parker, MD, MBA: he is known as "The Energy MD," is an Internal Medicine Physician and CEO of Total Elixir who developed a science-backed framework called The Four Energy Leaks: Alertness, Momentum, Attention, and Recovery. I hope that you enjoy the conversation and the importance of energy and the importance of sleep, Alertness, Momentum, Attention, and Recovery.

    Episode 32- My Post Conversation with Angela Jenkins about Weight Loss and Digestion Health.
    Aug 8 2026
    We spoke about why eating “healthy” still is not enough for so many people, especially in midlife, and how symptoms are often clues instead of problems to suppress. We talked about America when it comes to chemicals in our food and processed food, even though it seems healthy, but it really isn't. We talked about weight loss when it comes to the reasons why you are losing weight that can lead to gaining the weight right back. We talked about how even though some people look, eat, exercise, and seem healthy externally, that doesn't physically mean that they are healthy internally. The stereotype in society standards when it comes to external health and wellness, and physical appearance. We talk about the importance of mental and physical communication when it comes to decisions, actions, behavior, and choices that will impact and affect your health and wellness. We talked about understanding how detoxification, gut health, inflammation, nutrient status, environmental exposures, and lifestyle all work together. A little about Angela: she is the founder of Health Is Local and a Registered Dietitian with 30-plus years of clinical experience. I teach a root-cause approach through what I call The Root Cause Lens, helping people understand how detoxification, gut health, inflammation, nutrient status, environmental exposures, and lifestyle all work together. My focus is real food, practical detoxification, and helping people restore energy, clarity, and confidence. It was a great conversation, and I hope that you guys enjoy it.

    Episode 31- My Pre-conversation with Pratiqk Jaani about the Dhrasti Perception Theory.
    Aug 1 2026
    In this episode, I had a great pre-conversation about the Dhrasti Method and Perception Theory. We talked about his life as a people pleaser for most of it, which led him to the Dhrasti Method and Perception Theory. We talked about low self-esteem, low self-worth, low self-value, low self-respect, low self-love, low self-confidence, and believing in oneself when no one else does; how his medical and mental health journey has led him to be the founder of Dhrasti Method Ltd and the author of Dhrasti! The Perception? We talked about self-esteem healing and recovery when it comes to building your self-esteem through the negative situations that you are in, and the people who have harmed you. He spoke on being a qualified hypnotherapist and business advisor, the state of bliss, and how to live with bliss and joy too. We spoke about how this method can lead you to being alone to find who you are, heal and recover from your trauma, abuse, suffering, pain, and hurt from negative people and situations. We also spoke about religion and spirituality when it comes to building yourself into the new version of you. How the higher power pulls you away from the world for you to heal, recover, learn, grow, and evolve to prepare you for the things that will hurt and cause you pain and suffering, and how to protect yourself from negative people and situations. It was a great conversation about self-esteem, self-love, and self-value. We will be doing a part of this episode coming soon.

The difference between intimate sex with you spouse or partner and random sex with multiple and random women and men. We talked about the sexual ring that he created to help with men's stamina. The misconceptions when it comes to sex. The difference between what men and women when it comes to sex. It was a great conversation, and the post conversation is coming soon. A little about Elliot, he is the founder of the sexual ring. He theory about the intersection of sexual health and overall wellness, is changing the way that we look at sex. His clinical work as an Emergency Medicine specialist and experience in urology, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes have shaped his understanding that our physical happiness is deeply connected to emotional and mental states, a topic that matches perfectly with your show. At FirmTech, he invented the TechRing, the world’s first monitor of men’s erections, which just won the Healthcare Business Award from the Science and Engineering Health Technologies Alliance and was runner up for Innovation at CESShowstoppers. His device supports men’s health by tracking a vital sign that links sexual fitness to broader issues like cardiovascular disease. His share research-backed insights on how greater awareness of sexual health can motivate lasting, holistic lifestyle changes. I’d love to discuss new science on how aspects like sleep quality, habits, and emotional well-being all show up in sexual wellness. I hope that you enjoy the episode.
