Mental Health in Medicine: The Urgent Need for Reform with Dr. Robert Smith

The healthcare system is failing when it comes to addressing mental health. With nearly 100 million people experiencing a major mental disorder in their lifetime, why are our primary care physicians untrained to handle issues like depression, anxiety, and substance abuse? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Robert Smith—seasoned physician, distinguished professor of medicine, and thought leader—reveals the critical flaws in medical education and the urgent need for reform.

Dr. Smith, author of Has Medicine Lost its Mind?, explains how the current system compartmentalizes physical and mental health, leaving millions without the integrated care they truly need.

What do you do when your marriage is in crisis and one partner wants out? In this insightful episode, we sit down with Dr. Becky Whetstone, a Marriage and Family Therapist, consultant, life coach, and author of I (Think) I Want Out. After experiencing her own disappointing marriage counseling that led to divorce, Dr. Becky became determined to learn how to truly help couples reconcile when possible—or create an amicable divorce when necessary.

Dr. Becky explains how, when a partner’s nervous system is activated, they enter fight-or-flight mode, feeling as though their survival is at stake. This often leads them to believe that leaving is the only option. However, by calming the nervous system, addressing the root causes of conflict, and encouraging personal growth, many marriages can be saved.

Join us as Dr. Becky shares her expert insights on navigating a marriage crisis, strengthening relationships, and finding the best path forward—whether that means healing together or parting peacefully.

Join us on a journey from doubt to devotion with Dr. James B. Polson.

James Polson was once a skeptic who believed that God, heaven, and hell did not likely exist outside of his imagination. He was satisfied with his views until he was involved in a car accident that forced the realization that death can occur at any time. Was he wrong about heaven and hell? If they really existed, where would he be? While these complex questions remained in the back of his mind, Polson embarked on a quest to discover any truth about the existence of God, heaven, and hell.

Dr. Polson studied biomedical sciences and earned a PhD in pharmacology, he taught and conducted research at the University of South Florida, College of Medicine, and earned an MA in biblical studies from Dallas Theological Seminary.

Are you a "good daughter" caught in a lifelong struggle to win your mother's approval—only to find it never comes? In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Katherine Fabrizio, psychotherapist and bestselling author of The Good Daughter Syndrome, to explore the complex dynamics of mother-daughter relationships and the impact of generational trauma.

We discuss how empathetic daughters can become entangled in unhealthy patterns with difficult mothers—especially those with narcissistic or borderline tendencies. These daughters often struggle with guilt, people-pleasing, self-doubt, and an endless quest for validation. Katherine shares insights on how to break free from these cycles, set healthy boundaries, and learn the difference between helping and enabling.

Most importantly, we talk about how healing begins within—through self-care, self-trust, and reclaiming your own voice. If you’ve ever felt "not good enough" in your mother’s eyes, this episode is for you.
