244: This week, I’m joined by Lindsey Meehleis, a certified midwife, doula, lactation consultant, EMT, CPR instructor, and neonatal resuscitation provider. Lindsey brings a truly holistic approach to birth, and our conversation dives deep into the importance of honoring the natural physiology of labor. As someone on my own fertility journey, I asked all the questions I’ve been curious about — from how to find a midwife to what real support during birth looks like. We explore the over-medicalization of birth in the Western world, how to prepare for a more empowered and informed birthing experience, and why individualized care matters so much. Lindsey’s wisdom and passion for supporting women through this rite of passage is incredibly inspiring — I left this conversation wanting her by my side when I give birth someday. Topics Discussed: What is the difference between a midwife and a doula? How can I prepare for a natural birth in a medicalized world? Are epidurals and Pitocin necessary for every labor? What are the risks of relying on baby formula over breastfeeding? How to find a trustworthy midwife or doula?

We discuss her journey from conventional medicine to a root-cause-focused approach, and what inspired her to launch Real Health MD and perfeQTion Imaging.

In today’s solo episode, I’m exploring some hot-button topics surrounding RFK Jr. and the Obama administration, especially in relation to food policy. I’ll unpack the criticism currently surrounding RFK Jr. and share why I’ve been a long-time fan of his environmental and health activism. Then, we’ll examine the Obama administration’s handling of GMOs, school lunch programs, and processed foods. While many praise the Obamas for their efforts to improve public health, I’ll reveal the lesser-known policies that may have hindered true progress, especially when it comes to our food system.

EP. 223 Renowned fitness expert Jillian Michaels joins me, Courtney Swan, for a candid exploration of the often turbulent relationship between politics and health. Jillian opens up about her lifelong journey as a Democrat in California, sharing her personal experiences and insights into the unsettling political shifts she has observed. As we exchange stories, I recount my own evolution from a Republican upbringing in Texas to embracing progressive causes, only to feel a sense of disillusionment with recent political developments. Together, we navigate our political dissonance, emphasizing respect, empathy, and the quest for clarity amidst a polarized world. The episode also delves into the pressing concerns about corporate influence and media manipulation. We confront contentious topics such as the use of drugs like Ozempic for weight loss, the obesity narrative, and the urgent need for regenerative farming. Through personal reflection and insightful discussion, we underscore the importance of remaining informed and open-minded, encouraging listeners to engage critically with the narratives that shape our lives.

Welcome back to the Realfoodology podcast! In today’s episode, live from Austin, I’m thrilled to have Brigham Buhler, a guest I’ve been eager to feature since hearing him on Joe Rogan’s podcast. This conversation explores the shocking world of big insurance and the insidious corruption behind healthcare in America. Brigham unveils how deductibles and copays work, revealing the ways in which consumers are often left in the dark and underserved. It’s an eye-opening discussion that may be dark at times, but it equips you with the knowledge to navigate the system and avoid its traps. Tune in to discover how to protect yourself and your health in a broken system!

EP. 219 Welcome back to the Realfoodology podcast! In today’s episode, live from Austin, I’m thrilled to have Brigham Buhler, a guest I’ve been eager to feature since hearing him on Joe Rogan’s podcast. This conversation explores the shocking world of big insurance and the insidious corruption behind healthcare in America. Brigham unveils how deductibles and copays work, revealing the ways in which consumers are often left in the dark and underserved. It’s an eye-opening discussion that may be dark at times, but it equips you with the knowledge to navigate the system and avoid its traps.

EP. 214 Welcome back to another episode of The Realfoodology Podcast! Today we’re exploring the world of epigenetic coaching, genetic testing, and the exciting realm of peptides. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Lindsay from Designer Genes Co., where we discuss what it means to be an epigenetic coach and the transformative insights that genetic testing can offer. We also cover peptides in detail, including GLP-1 and their potential benefits for various health issues. If you're curious about how peptides could impact your health journey, this episode is packed with valuable information you won’t want to miss!

EP. 212: Hello friends, and welcome back to Realfoodology! Today’s episode is an absolute treat, and you’ll definitely want to stick around for part two as we had so much to cover that we split our conversation with Dr. Nick Norwitz into two parts. Dr. Norwitz, a researcher and educator with a valedictorian background from Dartmouth, a PhD from Oxford, and an MD from Harvard, brings a wealth of knowledge on metabolic health and its intricacies. We explore his personal journey with IBD, breakdown studies on  artificial sweeteners, and his unique perspective on metabolism that challenges conventional wisdom. His passion and depth of understanding are truly captivating, and I’m excited for you to hear this fascinating discussion.
