In this inspiring episode of Living Well Together, we welcome home one of Fairborn’s own—Kyle Walker, chiropractic student and intern at Living Well Spine Center, proud graduate of Fairborn High School and Wright State University. Kyle’s story is one of deep roots, strong values, and a heart that’s never forgotten where it came from.

Raised in a loving, supportive family and shaped by the friendships, coaches, teachers, and teammates that defined his early years, Kyle shares how growing up in this close-knit community helped him discover his purpose. Now, as he prepares to step into his role as a Doctor of Chiropractic, he reflects on the “pure” calling of his profession and the life philosophies that guide his vision for health and healing.

We talk about the meaning behind his journey, his love for travel and cultures, and even his passion for movies—especially the hidden messages that speak to the soul.

It’s a joy to have Kyle back in our town, serving in the same community that shaped him. We’re so proud of who he is and all he’s becoming—and beyond grateful that he’s walking this path with us at Living Well Spine Center.

🎙️ Tune in and hear:
Why Kyle believes chiropractic is a sacred calling
What makes small-town living so meaningful
The life lessons he’s picked up from Fairborn to now
What fuels his heart both inside and outside the clinic

Grab your coffee, your earbuds, and join us for this heartfelt conversation filled with purpose, hometown pride, and a glimpse into the future of healing.

Pedals, Purpose, and a New Tribe with Gil Esparza
In this powerful episode, we sit down with Gil Esparza, founder and director of Warriors on Wheels, a nonprofit born from one man’s pain, purpose, and a simple bike ride that changed everything.

From being the 9th of 14 children and enlisting in the Navy as a young man, to finding himself medically separated, battling PTSD, and living in his truck—Gil’s journey is one of deep resilience, redemption, and radical connection. Through the unexpected gift of a yard sale bike, he discovered healing on two wheels, and soon realized he wasn’t alone.

Today, Warriors on Wheels offers veterans, first responders, and their families a renewed sense of identity and community—one ride at a time. With a focus on connection, accountability, and service to others, Gil and his cycling tribe are transforming trauma into triumph across trails and towns.

💛 Whether you’re a veteran, a supporter, or someone seeking a way to serve, this conversation will stir your heart and remind you of the power of movement, mission, and finding your tribe.

“Do We Even Have Hobbies?”

This episode didn’t go quite as planned—and that’s what made it beautiful.

Join Lisa, Terry, and Graham as they toss the outline and follow their hearts into a spontaneous, real-life conversation about hobbies, guilt, rest, productivity, and why relaxing can be so hard (especially for type-A helpers who love to serve).

It’s rambl-y, and refreshing. Hopefully you’ll enjoy the spontaneity, nod along, and maybe even reflect on your own relationship with downtime. From floating in the pool and golfing with grandkids to the deeper reasons we resist rest, this episode explores what it really means to live well—and love well—together.

We also tease a deeper dive into a controversial topic: vaccine exposure and post-injection support. While we didn’t go there fully just yet, we promise to bring in trusted guests who can help unpack the science with grace and compassion. If you'd like the reference guide we mentioned, just reach out.

✨So grab your headphones, take a walk, or fold some laundry while you hang out with us—this one feels like a cozy conversation around the kitchen table.

📩 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share with a friend who could use a little more rest, and real talk.

Is It Gluten… or Glyphosate? What’s Really Making Us Sick

Read the full blog post that inspired this episode:
https://livingwellbeauty.com/is-it-gluten-or-glyphosate/

We’re pulling back the curtain on one of the most widespread yet overlooked health disruptors in our food system: glyphosate.

In this episode, Terry and I dive into why more and more people are reacting to bread, wine, and even “healthy” pantry staples—when the real issue might not be gluten, but what it’s sprayed with.

👉 You’ll hear:
- Shocking stats about glyphosate exposure in the U.S.
- Why it’s no longer just about GMOs—and how it’s now used pre-harvest on wheat, oats, beans, and even wine grapes
- How glyphosate mimics glycine, disrupts your gut microbiome, and contributes to autoimmune issues, IBS, leaky gut, and more
- The lawsuits, cover-ups, and payouts linked to glyphosate’s cancer-causing effects
- Why sourdough and heritage grain flour may be the answer for bread lovers
- 5 ways to reduce glyphosate exposure in your kitchen, pantry, and fridge—starting today

Virility, Vitality & the Man Code: A No-Holds-Barred Chat on Men's Health

It's International Joke Day, and we’re starting with a few laughs—but then....

In this eye-opening, occasionally spicy, and always unfiltered episode, Dr. Terry and Lisa open the conversation on what men really need to know about their health. We're talking about more than just testosterone levels and “low T” ads—this is about libido, longevity, stamina, stress, and showing up strong in every area of life.

We cover:

- The truth about testosterone (hint: it’s not just about sex)
- Why most men ignore the real warning signs—until it’s too late
- How stress quietly kills libido, mood, and metabolic function
- What happens when you override the body with prescriptions… instead of supporting it
- The danger of hormone-disrupting ingredients (yes, even in your soap and shaving cream)
- The power of regenerative therapies like BPC-157, Dihexa, and Tirzepatide
- Why men need brotherhood, grounding, and a connection to purpose
- And yes—Lisa quizzes Terry on Kegels for men and he passes with flying colors. 💪

We also drop this truth bomb:
👉 Virility isn’t just about performance—it’s about PURPOSE.
A healthy man isn’t just living longer, he’s living stronger.

🧠 BONUS:
We also chat about the unsung hero of men’s health: MAGNESIUM.

Think of it as the multitasking mineral that supports sleep, stress, muscle function, testosterone, and brain power—IF you're using the right kind.

If you’re a man ready to feel better, think clearer, and show up stronger—or love a man who could use a wellness reset—this episode is a must-listen.
