We are super excited to announce our newest team member, and we can't wait for you all to get to know her better! My name is Paige S. Lynch, I am a triple board-certified functional medicine nurse practitioner and owner of Functional Health and Wellness, PLLC, a private functional medicine practice based in Fredericksburg, VA. I am also a mother and wife who has struggled to balance caring for others while still caring for myself. I started my career in a high-stress environment as a firefighter/paramedic. As I advanced in my education and training, my own health crisis after the birth of my son opened my eyes to the physical effects of chronic stress and not caring for my body. Shortly after my son was born, I began to experience an expression of symptoms and illnesses that were not making sense to my conventionally-trained medical brain. Unable to get the medical support I needed from traditional conventional medicine, I began to research on my own.  Over time I discovered there was another way. I began a path of whole-body wellness that I would later come to realize was the formal process of Functional Medicine. I was immediately drawn to the holistic approach of using a person’s individual genetic makeup, combined with lifestyle to reverse chronic illness and prevent future problems. After my own health & wellness success utilizing functional medicine, I decided to become a Functional Medicine practitioner. After completing my training with the Institute of Functional Medicine, I was able to create a practice that centers around the needs of the patient. Now I work with patients across the country creating individualized treatment plans based on each person's unique needs. Learn more about Paige at her website

In this episode, we sit down to catch up with our long-time friend and mentor Mark Sisson. It has been 125 episodes since we last had Mark on the show so this was long overdue.  Mark has a new book out called Two Meals A Day that can be bought wherever books are sold. Mark Sisson is the New York Times bestselling author of The Keto Reset Diet and founding father of the ancestral health movement. His blog, MarksDailyApple.com, and Primal Blueprint lifestyle program has paved the way for primal enthusiasts to challenge conventional wisdom's diet and exercise principles and take personal responsibility for their health and well-being. From its humble - and controversial - beginnings in 2006, Mark's Daily Apple has grown into one of the highest-ranked health information resources on the Internet, with some three million unique visitors each month. An entrepreneur presiding over a wide-ranging primal enterprise, his fledgling Primal Kitchen healthy condiment line was acquired by Kraft-Heinz in 2018.  Mark, 66, has a BA in biology from Williams College and is a former world-class endurance athlete, with a 2:18 marathon and a fourth-place finish in the Hawaii Ironman World Triathlon Championships to his credit. Today, Mark directs his competitive energies into high-stakes Ultimate Frisbee tournaments against competitors decades younger on the battlefields of Miami Beach, FL.
