  • Beyond the Textbooks: Lessons Medicine Should Teach First With Dr. Josh Helman
    Jan 29 2026

    Medical education is changing, but not in a good way. What happens when future doctors are trained to follow protocols instead of thinking critically? What if the most important things doctors should learn are the very things being removed from the medical curriculum?

    In this episode, I interview Harvard-trained physician Dr. Josh Helman to share what he recently saw firsthand at medical school reunions and why it deeply concerns him. We talk about the gradual removal of hands-on anatomy training, the erosion of deep biochemistry education, and how rushed programs are producing physicians who lack the depth needed to solve complex health problems.

    We also explore how standard-of-care medicine, insurance pressures, and pharmaceutical funding shape clinical decisions and why lifestyle, nutrition, and prevention are often ignored despite overwhelming evidence. This conversation challenges the assumption that newer medical training is automatically better and explains why experience, curiosity, and continuous learning matter more than ever.


    If you want to understand how medicine really works and how to advocate for better care, listen to this episode.

    “Neurologists are experts at coming up with neurologic diagnoses... Unfortunately, up until now, they have not embraced the concept that there's hope for Alzheimer's and other neurological conditions. And they have not embraced lifestyle medicine as a potential solution to some of the problems.”

    ~ Dr. Josh Helman

  • Movement Culture & the Nervous System: A New Framework With Ido Portal
    Jan 22 2026

    Exercise has long been associated with injury and burnout because most people think it is all about reps, calories, or checking a box. But what if that mindset is limiting your brain, your nervous system, and your longevity?


    In this episode, I interview movement teacher and practitioner Ido Portal to challenge everything we’ve been taught about exercise. We explore why movement complexity, not workouts, is better for brain health, injury prevention, and healthy aging. Ido explains how the nervous system evolved for complex movement, why repetitive exercise causes injury and burnout, and how learning new movement patterns can rewire the brain.


    We also dive into practical examples like rock climbing, dance, racket sports, and playful movement, and why these outperform traditional workouts for cognitive resilience.


    This conversation completely reframed how I think about training the brain through the body. If you want to move better, think sharper, and age with strength and resilience, the episode is a must-listen.

    “Human beings are the most complex and intelligent movers of all. We have the most diversity and freedom. We can mimic other animals. We can engage with a huge diversity of movement patterns. This is the core of being human, as a mover, and this is the core of why the brain is there to begin with.”

    ~ Ido Portal


    In this Episode:

    - The biggest exercise mistakes people are making

    - How the brain evolved for complex movement

    - Walking, gait, and nervous system development

    - Strength training vs. movement complexity

    - Dance, rhythm, and cognitive engagement

    - Racket sports, strategy, and social movement

    - Dual-task movement and brain stimulation

    - How complex movement and proprioceptive awareness reduce injuries

    - How to start practicing movement complexity for joint health

  • Tools to Enhance Your Immune System With Dr. Roger Seheult
    Jan 15 2026

    What if one of the most powerful immune and brain health tools isn’t a supplement at all and almost everyone is missing it? In this episode, I interview Dr. Roger Seheult, a quadruple board-certified medical doctor and immune system expert, to discuss why issues with immune health, brain resilience, and even heart disease spike during cold and flu season. We explore how light exposure, body temperature, and daily habits shape immune response in ways most people never consider.


    Dr. Seheult breaks down the science behind sunlight, infrared light, and mitochondrial health, and why modern indoor lifestyles might be increasing vulnerability to illness and chronic disease. We also discuss practical strategies like sauna use and environmental changes to support interferon response and recovery.


    If you’re serious about protecting your brain, strengthening immunity, and making sense of the research behind seasonal illness, this conversation will change how you think about health. Listen in and start applying these insights today.
