In this deeply personal and expansive episode, Ian Clark shares the full arc of his health journey from early systemic damage and a life threatening prognosis to rebuilding his body, mind, and spirit through a systems based, natural approach to healing.

At 46 years old, Ian was told his body was failing and that decline was inevitable. Tumors, cardiac irregularities, liver dysfunction, severe toxicity, and decades of accumulated damage painted a grim picture. But rather than accepting a prognosis without understanding, Ian made a pivotal decision to reclaim the executive role in his own health.

This conversation explores how true longevity is not determined by age, genetics, or statistics, but by the strength and coherence of the body’s interconnected systems. Ian breaks down how toxicity, environmental exposure, dental damage, long term antibiotic use, and unexamined medical conformity quietly erode health over time, and how regeneration becomes possible when those root causes are addressed.

You will hear how Ian shifted from symptom management to foundational repair, why health must be built in sequence, and how spiritual clarity, mental discipline, and personal responsibility play an essential role in physical healing. This episode is not about trends, hacks, or labels. It is about understanding the body as a living system and learning how to support it intelligently and naturally.

Above all, this is a conversation about willingness. The willingness to question what you were told. The willingness to take responsibility. And the willingness to do what it actually takes to become healthier every year, rather than decline with age.

The female body is not linear. It is cyclical.

In this episode, we explore how women’s hormones are designed to move in rhythms, and why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies after years of being taught to suppress, override, or regulate what is actually a form of natural intelligence.

We discuss cyclical living, seed cycling, perimenopause, post menopause, and the emotional impact of understanding your hormonal system across every life phase. From first cycle to wise woman, this conversation reframes symptoms as messages, not malfunctions, and nourishment as a form of reverence rather than control.

This episode is an invitation to return to body literacy, support the female rhythm, and remember that you are not broken. You are cyclical.

YTY Ryan Stern

In this deeply moving episode of Younger Than Yesterday, Ian Clark sits down with integrative health researcher and educator Ryan Sternagel to share the extraordinary story of his son, Ryder.

At just eleven months old, Ryder was diagnosed with Stage 4 neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive cancer of the nervous system that had already spread through his spine and into his hips. What began as a small lump in his back became what doctors described as “the tip of the iceberg.”

What followed was a collision between two worlds: conventional oncology and integrative healing. Faced with rapidly shifting treatment plans, pressure from hospitals, and threats from child protective services, Ryan and his wife were forced to navigate one of the most complex medical landscapes imaginable.

This episode is not a rejection of conventional care. It is a story of measuring, questioning, personalizing, and integrating — and of trusting intuition when the path forward is unclear.

Eleven years later, Ryder is thriving. He skis, mountain bikes, practices jiu jitsu, and lives fully. His journey sparked a global movement that now helps thousands of families facing similar challenges.

In this episode, Ian Clark welcomes Dr. Joy Kong for a thoughtful discussion on integrative medicine, functional healing, and the body’s innate capacity to repair.

Dr. Kong reflects on her early life in China, her Western medical training at UCLA, and the personal experience that shaped her approach to healing: her mother’s recovery from multiple myeloma through a holistic path. Ian and Dr. Kong explore the limitations of symptom driven medicine, the importance of addressing systems rather than isolated conditions, and how functional medicine helps bridge Eastern wisdom with Western science.

They also discuss regenerative approaches such as stem cells within a broader framework of inflammation regulation, immune balance, and restoring the body’s original design.

Healing doesn’t fail because people aren’t trying hard enough.

It fails because we’ve misunderstood what healing actually requires.

In this episode, Ian Clark sits down with somatic and detox practitioner Eva Hooft to explore why so many people burn out, crash, or feel worse after doing everything “right” for their health.

Eva shares her personal journey through chronic illness, aggressive detox protocols, and a complete nervous system collapse, and how that experience reshaped her understanding of true healing. Together, they unpack why pushing the body too hard can backfire, why supplements can suddenly stop working, and why safety in the nervous system is a prerequisite for real recovery.

This conversation goes beyond protocols and lab results and into the deeper layers of healing. Ian and Eva discuss the role of fear, trauma, and unresolved emotion in chronic symptoms, why the body stores toxins beyond what blood work can show, and how mineral balance, bile flow, and proper drainage support the body without force.

They also explore the importance of purpose, alignment, and meaning in health, and why healing often accelerates when people stop fighting their bodies and start cooperating with them.

This episode reframes health as a process of nourishment, trust, and patience, not intensity, deprivation, or fear.

“You cannot detox a system that doesn’t feel safe. Healing happens when the body is nourished, supported, and no longer afraid.” — Eva Hooft

Eva Hooft is a somatic and detox practitioner specializing in nervous system regulation, mineral balancing, and gentle detoxification. After navigating years of chronic illness, extreme detoxing, and nervous system collapse, she rebuilt her health by shifting away from force based healing and toward safety, nourishment, and emotional integration.

Today, Eva works one on one with clients and through group programs, helping people restore foundational health, regulate the nervous system, and release physical and emotional stressors without causing harm. She shares her research and teachings through her practice and online platforms, guiding individuals toward sustainable, long term healing.

In this episode, Ian Clark sits down with Dr. Bryan Ardis for an in-depth conversation that challenges conventional approaches to chronic illness and modern disease. Drawing from years of clinical experience, research, and pattern recognition, Dr. Ardis explores why chronic conditions are rarely random and why the body is often responding intelligently to toxic overload rather than malfunctioning.

This conversation focuses on root causes, not symptom management, and invites listeners to reconsider long-held assumptions about health, healing, and responsibility.

• Why chronic illness cannot be explained by genetics or coincidence alone

• How autoimmune, neurological, and inflammatory conditions often share common underlying drivers

• The role environmental and chemical exposures play in disrupting cellular communication

• Why the body’s symptoms are signals of overwhelm, not failure

• How toxic burden can affect inflammation, oxygenation, clotting, and neurological function

• Why treating symptoms independently often misses the bigger picture

• The importance of supporting detoxification pathways in the correct sequence

• How aggressive detox can backfire when elimination systems are compromised

• The difference between suppressing symptoms and resolving root causes

• Why modern medicine excels at management but often avoids upstream investigation

• What it means to respect the body’s intelligence rather than override it

Hormones don’t lie. And when they’re out of sync, so is your energy, your mood, your metabolism, and your mind.

In this conversation with Dr. Mariza Snyder, we’re getting to the real reason so many women feel chronically tired, emotionally triggered, metabolically drained, and hormonally unstable. It’s not age. It’s not bad luck. It’s a perfect storm of trauma, cortisol, and modern stress wrecking the body from the inside out, and the solutions aren't what most women are being told.

We talk hormone shifts from puberty to perimenopause, the trauma-productivity trap, why low body temperature is a red flag, and how circadian rhythm, oxytocin, and blood sugar stability play a central role in real healing.

Dr. Mariza doesn’t just understand the science; she lives it. And she’s got a framework for how women can finally reclaim their energy, sanity, and resilience.

“If we could just extend the longevity of our ovaries, we win the game of health span.” — Dr. Mariza

About Dr. Mariza Snyder:

Dr. Mariza is a functional practitioner, women’s hormone expert, and the author of several bestselling books. After overcoming her own health struggles with chronic pain and fatigue, she has dedicated her practice to helping women identify the root causes of their hormonal issues and reclaim their energy and vitality. She is the host of the "Energized" podcast and a trusted resource for hundreds of thousands of women worldwide.

There’s a reason your healing hasn’t fully landed yet—and it has less to do with supplements or routines, and more to do with how your body stores emotional trauma, how your breath patterns are wired for survival, and how your nervous system has been shaped by generations before you.

That’s the heart of this conversation: emotional epigenetics, breathwork, and the real science behind how to regulate your nervous system, release trauma held in the fascia, and actually transform your identity—not with hacks, but with honest, embodied work.

My guest today, Josh Trent, is a pioneer in what he calls “emotional epigenetics”—a field that blends ancient healing wisdom with cutting-edge neuroscience to unlock something we’ve all been craving: freedom from the unconscious patterns and trauma loops that keep us stuck.

Josh is the founder of the Wellness and Wisdom podcast and the creator of The LIFE Method—a process that helps people increase their capacity to feel, heal, and become unfuckwithable. He’s been on a deep journey—from childhood trauma and addiction to becoming one of the clearest voices on breathwork, nervous system regulation, and spiritual integration.

We’re talking about breathwork as the bridge between biology and emotion, the 90-second lifespan of an emotion, how trauma gets passed down epigenetically (and how to clear it), and why true healing starts with emotional honesty.

“When people increase their capacity to feel, they will heal 99% or more of what ails them.”—Josh Trent

About Josh Trent:

Josh is the founder of the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, a top-ranked show in the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual wellness space. He’s been teaching breathwork, emotional healing, and identity transformation for over a decade, with a focus on helping people reclaim their wholeness through what he calls the LIFE method: Liberation, Internal work, Frequency raising, and Embodiment.
