We're not doctors—we're people who've done the work, studied the research, and walked alongside others through transformation. This one's about how healthcare evolved from herbalists and midwives into the medical industrial complex we have today, and no, this isn't conspiracy theory. This is documented history that you need to understand if you're going to take your power back.

What we get into:

• Pre-1900: when wellness meant herbalists, plant medicine, lifestyle, and hospitals were last resort only
• How John D. Rockefeller (oil guy, not a doctor) decided to make synthetic drugs from petroleum byproducts because natural substances can't be patented
• The Flexner Report of 1910—when Carnegie Foundation funded an "educational reformer" to standardize medical schools and close over half of them
• Why homeopathy, herbal medicine, Black medical schools, and women-run institutions got shut down while pharmaceutical-pushing schools got millions in funding
• The shift from wellness to treatment, prevention to reaction, and why your doctor got 20-25 hours of nutritional education (and it's optional)
• What actually causes leg cramps, anxiety, and high blood pressure—and why treating symptoms keeps you coming back instead of healing the root cause

We're walking through why medicine became a service industry instead of a wellness practice, how doctors are incentivized to keep you sick (not because they're evil, but because that's the business model), and what you can do next. Listen to your body. Move. Sleep. Manage your nervous system. Stop outsourcing your power to systems that were built for profit, not healing. This one's about taking responsibility back.
