We're halfway through the year—and what a year it's been.
Since launching on WMYD TV-20 Detroit in January, we've crossed 100,000+ viewer hours, welcomed dozens of extraordinary guests, and tackled the health topics that matter most to our community.

Last week, we hit pause to celebrate the Top 4 Episodes of 2026 so far—the conversations that resonated, inspired, and sparked the most engagement from viewers like you.

#1: DOULAS - THE POWER OF BIRTH SUPPORT

Guests: Sarah Riley, RN & Shanita McClary – Meridian Health Plan

Birth is one of the most vulnerable moments in a woman's life—and having the right support can make all the difference. Sarah Riley and Shanita McClary joined us to talk about the role of doulas in improving birth outcomes, reducing maternal mortality, and ensuring that every mother feels seen, heard, and supported.

🔔 Why It Resonated: Viewers shared stories of their own birth experiences, asked about doula access, and sparked conversations about maternal health equity.

#2: BRAIN INJURY AWARENESS MONTH

Guests: Dr. Matthew Willsey, MD, PhD & Dr. Andrew M. Nguyen, MD – University of Michigan

190 people die from a traumatic brain injury every day in America. But groundbreaking research is offering new hope. Dr. Willsey and Dr. Nguyen took us inside the University of Michigan's Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Clinic—one of the first in the nation—and shared how technology is restoring communication and independence for people living with paralysis. This episode showed us what's possible when science meets compassion.

🔔 Why It Resonated: Viewers were inspired by the innovation happening right here in Michigan—and moved by the stories of patients reclaiming their voices.

#3: HEART HEALTH - KNOW YOUR NUMBERS

Guests: Dr. Phillip Levy & Sara Hegarty – American Heart Association

Heart disease is the #1 killer in America—claiming a life every 33 seconds. Dr. Phillip Levy and Sara Hegarty from the American Heart Association joined us to break down what your blood pressure numbers really mean, why heart disease starts earlier than you think, and what you can do today to protect your heart. This episode was a wake-up call wrapped in actionable advice.

🔔 Why It Resonated: Viewers checked their blood pressure, scheduled overdue appointments, and shared the episode with loved ones who needed to hear it.

#4: HEALTHY WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

Guests: Angela T. Moore & Dr. Angela Harden-Mack

Weight is one of the most personal—and most misunderstood—health topics. Angela T. Moore and Dr. Angela Harden-Mack brought wisdom, compassion, and practical strategies to a conversation that too often gets reduced to numbers on a scale. We talked about sustainable approaches, the role of mental health, and why wellness looks different for every body.

🔔 Why It Resonated: Viewers appreciated the judgment-free approach and walked away with tools they could actually use.

Why These Four?

These episodes didn't just inform—they moved people to action. They were shared, saved, and talked about long after the credits rolled.
And that's the whole point. This show isn't just about health education. It's about health transformation. It's about giving you the information you need to make confident decisions for yourself and the people you love.

Thank you for watching. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for being part of this journey.
Here's to the rest of 2026.

June was a month for the fellas—and the families who love them.

We talked about why men are dying younger, skipping checkups, and suffering in silence. We talked about what happens when retired NFL players invest in Detroit's next generation. And we talked about why health isn't an individual pursuit—it's a team sport.

This week on The Home Health Care Today Show, we're looking back at the conversations that made June unforgettable.

MEN'S HEALTH MONTH

Guest: Dr. Michael D. Lutz, MD, FACS – President & CEO, MIU Men's Health Foundation

Men live five years less than women. They have their first heart attack a decade earlier. They're four times more likely to die by suicide. And one in five will die before age 65.

Dr. Michael Lutz spent 40 years as a urologist in Metro Detroit and has dedicated his career to changing those numbers. We had the guy-talk that men need to hear—about prostate cancer screening, heart disease starting in your 30s, mental health stigma, and why "Partners in Care" means the people who love you might be the reason you finally make that appointment.

Key Stat: Only 17% of men saw a mental health professional last year—compared to nearly 29% of women.

FAMILY HEALTH & WELLNESS / YOUTH CAMP OF THE CENTURY

Guest: Tim Walton – Vice President, NFLPA Detroit Chapter | Former Detroit Lion

Tim Walton went from Redford Bishop Borgess to Ball State to the Detroit Lions—and when his playing days ended, he stayed and built something. For more than a decade, he's led the NFLPA Detroit Chapter, rallying retired players like Lomas Brown, Eddie Murray, and Eric Hipple to give back to the community that raised them.

Under his leadership, the chapter won back-to-back Chapter of the Year honors in 2024 and 2025. In August 2025, Tim received the President's Lifetime Achievement Award at Howard University.

We talked about family health, youth development, and the upcoming Youth Camp of the Century—July 14-15, 2026—a two-day experience designed to inspire Detroit's young people on and off the field.

Key Stat: Only 24% of children ages 6-17 get the recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity.

Why This Month Mattered

Every conversation this month came back to one truth: health is a team effort.

Men don't have to navigate their health alone. Kids thrive when families prioritize wellness together. And communities get stronger when legends invest in the next generation.

Partners in care. For better lifespans across the lifespan.

Thank you for watching, sharing, and being part of this journey with us.

Here's to July.
