In this episode of The Whole Health Podcast, Kelly J. Blodgett, DMD, NMD, IBDM, and Megan Barnett, MS, CNS, sit down with Renee Pirkl, Psy.D., PC—a psychologist and human performance specialist who helps individuals and teams move beyond shame, fear, and stagnation into clarity, courage, and purposeful action. Drawing from her work with high performers, teams, and everyday humans alike, Dr. Pirkl unpacks how curiosity, compassionate self-inquiry, and the DISC framework can transform both personal growth and group dynamics. She also explores the energetic weight of shame, why the words we use to describe our diagnoses deeply matter, and how emerging tools like psilocybin-assisted therapy may help unlock new pathways toward genuine, whole-person healing.

Topics Discussed:

-How shame keeps us small, why naming our “shame gremlin” changes everything, and the role of curiosity and courage in breaking through performance blocks.

-Using DISC and other personality frameworks to build healthy, high-performing teams, increase self-awareness, and honor both strengths and “growing edges.”

-Rethinking diagnoses and identity (“my anxiety,” “my disease”), plus an introduction to psilocybin-assisted therapy, the default mode network, and what whole health truly means to Dr. Pirkl.

Hyperbaric Healing & Whole-Body Recovery with Dr. Erich Lieberknecht - 30

On this episode of The Whole Health Podcast, co-hosts Megan Barnett, MS, CNS, and Dr. Kelly Blodgett, DMD, NMD, IBDM sit down with Dr. Erich Lieberknecht, founder of B-Line Clinic in Bend, Oregon. Dr. Lieberknecht shares his journey from traditional chiropractic care to a cellular-medicine approach rooted in hyperbaric oxygen therapy, shockwave therapy, neuro-mapping, and advanced recovery technologies. Together, they explore how oxygen, energy production, and biomechanics drive healing at the deepest levels of the body. This conversation offers an eye-opening look at what becomes possible when we support the body’s innate ability to repair from the inside.

Topics Discussed:

• The advantages of hard-shell hyperbaric chambers—higher pressure, higher oxygen concentration, temperature control, and comfort—and how they accelerate neurological and tissue repair.
  
  
• How shockwave therapy reduces inflammation, recruits stem cells, stimulates new blood vessel growth, and helps patients avoid or delay joint replacement while returning to the activities they love.
  
  
• Neuro-mapping and microcurrent as tools to “update the software” of the nervous system, resolve long-standing pain patterns, restore biomechanics, and why true whole health leads to kinder, more connected communities.
