SPECIAL EPISODE: Coronavirus
I have seen too many callous disregards for Coronavirus and wanted to address what you can do right now and how you should be preparing for it. I discuss the difference between over preparation and panic, why the virility and lethality is separate and distinct from the seasonal flu, social distancing, unexpected places where the virus is being transmitted, and how myself and the family are doing right now.

I am beyond reason, don’t speak to me.” (17:53) (Dr. Mark)“I started standup a while ago but only got into it seriously a couple of year ago. And, I originally used it as a personal growth tool.” (20:05) (Mia)“You’re gonna have a hard time convincing me that people won’t like great food if it’s put in front of them.” (29:13) (Dr. Mark)“One of the things that really is big for people is the role of mental health and food. And, people don’t understand that their mood, their depression, their anxiety, all that can be related – even ADD – can be related to what they’re eating.” (34:44) (Dr. Mark)“When you create a regenerative farm, which is essentially integrating animals and plant species using animals in a way that actually regenerates through their poo and their pee and they’re running around and chewing on the grass, it actually builds soil. And also, it holds water and it requires less irrigation. So it’s a win-win-win and it produces better quality food.” (44:22)“So we had to figure out how to build a bridge between us so that he understands that if I need a moment to go and figure it out, it’s not because I’m running or withdrawing. It’s because I want to come back with a really open heart and a clean space so we can really deal and heal with whatever it is.” (56:02)LINKS MENTIONEDBetter!

019 James Maskell – On Functional Medicine, Community, & Health Empowerment
00:48 – Dr. Stephanie introduces today’s guest, James Maskell05:49 – James’ background and origin story11:29 – The Functional Forum and James’ first book, The Evolution of Medicine22:47 – Statistics on loneliness30:44 – How group visits work38:50 – James breaks down the seven steps of The Therapeutic Order45:05 – James recalls a story about Frome, a town in the U.K.51:10 – Profitability59:58 – Scaling up functional medicine1:03:38 – Tips and strategies for getting patients to open up within a group setting1:07:48 – James talks about the release of his latest book, The Community Cure1:10:07 – Where listeners can follow Dr. Stephanie and subscribe to her newsletterTWEETABLE QUOTES“Having grown up in such a different health environment I just sort of had a moment where I realized maybe some of what I was born into is a part of the solution. And maybe I’m not born here to be an investment banker. Maybe I’m here to follow a different kind of a path.” (09:14)“And, just to take a step back, it’s really healthcare where the goal is self-efficacy. And, what that means is the goal where people can take care of themselves and they don’t need a doctor and they don’t need medication.” (14:10)“There was one stat that I have in the book which is that if you’re subject to a targeted rejection – which is someone intending to break a social bond with you, like a divorce or you get fired from your job – your risk of depression goes up by twenty-two times.” (25:05)“The reason why I think it makes sense to reestablish those groups in healthcare is that, eventually, everyone comes across some sort of health issue. And that’s a moment where we can sort of bring them into a group if they need it.” (32:15)“And the Therapeutic Order comes from naturopathic medicine, and all it says is ‘we should start with the least costly, least invasive interventions first and then work our way up to drugs and surgery as a last resort.” (40:44)“So ultimately, my vision for transforming healthcare is really to create this bottom layer of empowerment groups that facilitate turning on the body’s healing mechanisms and dealing with weakened systems that have been weakened as a result of malnutrition and so forth.” (44:20)“Here’s the thing. If you teach someone to meditate and you do it ten percent wrong, what is the downside risk of that? It’s nothing. If you give people the wrong drug, the downside risk could be death.” (1:01:13)“I think that, for practitioners who are involved, I think you really have to realize that your expertise is not as valuable as your ability to help people help themselves.” (1:04:36)LINKS MENTIONEDBetter!
