Why Traditional Medicine May Be Failing You (And What to Do About It)

In this episode, we dive deep into the difference between reactive and proactive healthcare—why traditional medicine waits until you’re sick to intervene and how preventative care could change the game. Claire shares her personal story of discovering thickened carotid artery walls at just 25 years old—something she never would have caught without advanced testing. Ang weighs in with insights on how functional medicine takes a different approach.
We break down commonly overlooked health tests—like comprehensive thyroid panels, cortisol and adrenal function tests, advanced lipid screenings, and gut health assessments—explaining why they matter and what they can reveal about your long-term well-being. Plus, we discuss what most doctors don’t tell you about nutrition, stress, sleep, and movement, and why these are just as critical as any lab result.
If you’ve ever felt dismissed by a doctor or wondered what else you should be testing for, this episode is for you. Stick around for actionable tips on advocating for your health, finding the right practitioners, and investing in your long-term wellness before problems arise.

From Stuck to Successful: What You’re Not Seeing

Coaches Help You See What You Can’t
Have you ever felt stuck in your habits without realizing what's holding you back? That’s where a coach comes in. In this episode, we dive into how coaches ask the tough questions, helping you uncover blind spots and mindless roadblocks that may be slowing your progress.
We’ll share real stories of patients who’ve had life-changing lightbulb moments during coaching calls—small shifts in thinking that led to big results. From out-of-the-box strategies to mindful eating tips, we explore simple yet effective ways to make lasting changes.
We also discuss:✔ How multitasking can help you implement new habits effortlessly✔ Small habits you can replace or build into your routine✔ Why you do what you do—and if it's truly getting you closer to your goals

Coaching is an investment, but the value goes beyond just a plan—it’s about accountability, growth, and unlocking the next level of your health journey. Tune in to learn how staying committed can make all the difference.
