My Book: FINDING PURPOSE IN THE PAUSE

My guest today is Jenn Malecha, the Wholistic Health Boss. She wasn’t always as health conscious as she is today as we'll talk about in the beginning of our talk.

Jenn empowers clients by teaching them a model of self-care to relieve a variety of health complaints and improve overall wellbeing. Using a functional diagnostic and holistic approach, she helps to identify healing opportunities (within the hormone, gut and immune systems, etc.) that are creating dysfunction or imbalance in the body. Then, she works together with her clients to restore balance in the body using tools to improve diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction and natural supplementation to promote the healing process.

In this episode, we discuss autoimmunity, where to start with testing, why getting healthy first is the secret to weight loss, and more!

My Book: FINDING PURPOSE IN THE PAUSE

Today's guest has a fascinating story and weight loss transformation and his reason for it was very interesting as you'll hear. While this is a wide ranging conversation, our central theme in this talk is how to find the right lifestyle for you after 45 and the big pillars that contribute to it.

Dr. Derek Alessi, Ph.D became interested in the field of fitness training at an early age when he was an obese teenager.  Determined to change his health, body and ultimately his future, he began strength training and developed a system to modify his nutrition. 

Derek dropped over 80-pounds in one year and later that same year, he entered his first and only body building contest. Disenchanted with the way body building tends to minimize health and well-being in order to encourage raw size, he left that arena and dedicated his career to helping individuals achieve better health and wellness through a program of planned exercise and practical nutrition.

At the age of 19, Derek passed a national fitness certification exam and began his career in personal fitness training.  He furthered his quest for more information through education and received post-graduate degrees in health and physical education as well as a master’s degree in nutrition.

Dr. Derek is the author of The Bermuda Triangle Diet (October, 2009 Strategic Publishing), Lose Fat Forever (2003), and The Promise Health and Fitness System (2002 ).  Derek has earned a doctorate degree in health and physical education and a master’s degree in nutrition. 

He is also a National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) trainer.  He owns and operates Dr. Derek Health & Fitness, a private practice, a personal training facility for adults in East Amherst New York.  He has appeared on over 2100-TV and 400-radio programs throughout the country and has been featured in national print media including Maxim, Burn Fitness for Women and Iron-Man Magazines.

Dr. Derek is a health, fitness and lifestyle contributor for the USA Today and the host of weekly TV show on NBC Cleveland & NBC in Buffalo, New York called Live It Fit Now!  

In addition, Dr. Derek conducts regular health and fitness seminars for the health care industry, Fortune 1000 companies, and small businesses where he combines his unique brand of humor, empathy and knowledge to communicate his positive, affirming message:  Make the Most of Your Life… Live It Fit!™

As our understanding of the body and brain expand and increase, there are certain modalities that once were looked at as trivial or "voodoo" are now becoming more mainstream. Chiropractic is one of those areas of medicine that is murky in its benefits and my guest today is extremely passionate about his mission to bring more people to this world so they can benefit.

Bharon Hoag is currently serving the profession as the Executive Director of OneChiropractic.

OneChiropractic is a non-profit advocacy organization focused on attracting like-minded chiropractors to move in a unified effort to educate the world on the power of the chiropractic adjustment.

He has been a leader in the business aspect of healthcare for almost two decades. He has worked in the chiropractic profession for eighteen years and taught for sixteen, developing his unique “non-doctor” approach through ownership and management of numerous clinics. He also served as the Executive Director of The Ohio State Chiropractic Association (OSCA) for six years. This experience enabled him to facilitate a new model of State Association management.

Hoag’s new venture with the creation of OneChiropractic has ignited his passion and purpose. The mission of this organization is to harness the power of the chiropractic patient, drive for chiropractic parity in healthcare and to ensure the individual chiropractor has the tools to succeed. Achieving these goals will make Chiropractic the #1 healthcare choice in the world.

In this episode, we discuss how a non-chiropractor got into this field, how this field is growing and evolving, the real benefits both physical and mental, and more!
