This involves being aware of one's own emotions and those of others, recognizing that everyone is part of a shared environment, and using this awareness to guide actions. Angie suggests that the lack of emotional intelligence has significant implications for the world. She compares emotional intelligence to a language one learns to speak, noting that individuals with low emotional intelligence may struggle with handling adversity and managing their emotions.  [20:20] Curiosity as the Key to Emotional Intelligence  Angie highlights the importance of curiosity as a foundational aspect of emotional intelligence.  Individuals create space for questions by cultivating curiosity and allowing others to express their emotions.  Mastering the role of the observer, which begins with curiosity, enhances empathy and facilitates a shift from reacting to situations to responding.  [27:20] From Struggle to Strength: Angie's Journey  Angie shares a personal journey of transformation, highlighting how she went from a high-achieving, disciplined individual to someone struggling with depression and binge eating. Through her experience of hitting rock bottom and undergoing a process of rebirth, she gained profound insights into psychology and personal development. This journey ultimately led her to discover her passion for coaching.  [36:00] Navigating Purpose & Empowering Others  Having high emotional intelligence can help individuals figure out their purpose and make decisions with clarity.  Angie's personal experience motivates her to help others who may be going through similar struggles. She recognizes the importance of equipping individuals with the tools and knowledge to understand and manage their emotions, especially during periods of identity crisis.   [42:30] Understanding Emotional Traps & the Law of Attraction  Angie discusses how individuals can become trapped in certain emotional states, such as grief, which then perpetuate feelings of shame and guilt.  By constantly focusing on negative emotions, individuals can inadvertently magnify them, shaping their perception of reality. This proces influences one's vibrational frequency and attracts similar experiences.  [46:00] Perception's Power: Uncovering Subconscious Influences  Angie emphasizes the critical role of perception in shaping every aspect of one's life, including health.  She suggests that disease can originate from one's perception, which is influenced by subconscious programs.  Understanding these programs is essential for uncovering outdated beliefs that may be holding individuals back from living fulfilling lives.

#786 Ageless Energy: Strategies for Boosting Metabolism and Slowing Down the Clock

Today, I am blessed to have Andy Schoonover here with me. He is the CEO and founder of CrowdHealth, a company that deploys a crowdfunding model to pay its users' medical bills. In this episode, Andy addresses issues plaguing healthcare and wellness. He exposes the profit-driven motives of pharmaceutical, insurance, and hospital industries, illustrating how they prioritize financial gain over public health. Andy debunks the misconception that healthy eating is inaccessible, showcasing how meal planning can yield nutritious options at low costs. We chat about the harsh reality of health insurance, revealing how deductibles and claim denials push families into financial turmoil. Andy advocates for a transformative approach to healthcare through community-driven support, emphasizing collective action and simplified lifestyle choices for wellness. / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  *BonCharge: Blue light Blocking Glasses, Red Light Therapy, Sauna Blankets & More.

Text me the words "Podcast" +1 (786) 364-5002 to be added to my contacts list.   [03:00] Healthcare: Profits Over Wellness  Andy highlights how the players within the healthcare system, including pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, and hospitals, have incentives that are not aligned to keep people healthy.  Instead, they benefit financially when people are sick or costs rise. Pharmaceutical companies profit from ongoing treatment rather than curing diseases, insurance companies may benefit from higher premiums, and hospitals earn revenue from higher service prices.   [09:00] Affordable Healthy Eating Beyond Fast Food  Andy challenges the narrative that unhealthy fast food options are the only accessible and affordable choices, particularly in food deserts.  Through an experiment, he demonstrates that creating a healthy meal for the same or even less cost than a typical fast food meal is possible. This highlights the importance of education in making healthier choices, even in areas labeled as food deserts.  [15:50] The Paradox of Health Insurance  Andy highlights a concerning reality where even families with health insurance face the risk of financial distress due to medical events.  200,000 families go bankrupt every year despite having health insurance. This is attributed to high deductibles, where individuals must pay a significant amount out-of-pocket before insurance coverage kicks in.  A substantial portion of claims are denied, further exacerbating the financial burden on individuals and families. This situation underscores the inadequacy of current health insurance models and the need for reform.  [37:20] Leveraging Collective Support for Medical Needs  CrowdHealth participants contribute monthly fees, which are used to support community members facing medical expenses or emergencies.  By leveraging the community's collective resources, individuals can receive assistance without relying on traditional insurance models or external funding sources.  This approach fosters a sense of solidarity and mutual aid among members, reinforcing the community's shared values and objectives.  [50:45] Partnering for Health: The Role of Spousal Support and Simplified Meal Planning  Andy emphasizes the importance of getting your spouse on board with your health goals. When both partners are aligned in their approach to nutrition and wellness, it sets a solid foundation for success.  Spousal support can provide motivation, accountability, and a shared commitment to making healthier choices, which can significantly impact overall lifestyle habits. Andy advocates simplifying meal planning by rotating through about ten meals. By establishing a routine and eliminating decision-making around meals, individuals can reduce the likelihood of making unhealthy choices due to fatigue or convenience.

[08:45] Tap Water Contaminants in Skincare Products  Tap water, commonly used in skincare products, can contain various contaminants, including drug waste, such as antidepressants, heart medication, and birth control pills. These contaminants enter the water system and can end up in personal care products. Water-based products can lead to contaminants and other harmful substances absorption through the skin. This absorption can contribute to hormonal imbalances and infertility.  [20:00] Oral Health & Industry Stagnation  Trina emphasizes the interconnectedness of oral health with overall well-being, highlighting how chronic low-grade inflammation in the mouth can have far-reaching effects on the body, leading to conditions like high blood pressure, heart disease, and neurological issues. Trina criticizes the dental industry for its lack of evolution, noting that practices from decades ago, such as using mercury fillings and recommending fluoride toothpaste and mouthwash, are still prevalent despite evidence of their harmful effects.  [26:10] Harmful Mouthwash Ingredients & Their Antibiotic-like Effects  Trina highlights harmful ingredients like alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, and triclosan in mouthwashes, noting their detrimental effects on overall health. Trina compares alcohol, peroxide, or triclosan-based mouthwashes to taking antibiotics daily, emphasizing how these products can indiscriminately kill harmful and beneficial bacteria.  [44:00] Detoxification and Symptom Management  Trina explains how toxins from various sources, including personal care products, accumulate in the body's fat tissues over time. We discuss the symptoms people may experience during detoxification, such as fatigue, brain fog, and malaise. She attributes these symptoms to the body's release of stored toxins from fat tissues.  [50:20] Trina's Path to Natural Skincare Innovation  Trina shares how she discovered the harmful effects of skincare products after experiencing a miscarriage.  Trina's entrepreneurial journey was spurred by her husband's encouragement to sell her homemade skincare products.  [58:30] Unlocking Oral Health  Trina underscores the critical importance of oral health, emphasizing its direct correlation with systemic health issues such as heart disease, diabetes, thyroid problems, infertility, and cognitive impairment.   AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode:   Dental Detox Kit:  https://www.idevaffiliate.com/32863/idevaffiliate.php?id=1474&url;=1117 LED Teeth Whitening System:  https://www.idevaffiliate.com/32863/idevaffiliate.php?id=1474&url;=1116 Website: https://www.primallifeorganics.com Follow Primal Life  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/primallifeorg Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PrimalLifeOrganics TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@primallifeorg YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@primallifeorganics   / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  *BonCharge: Blue light Blocking Glasses, Red Light Therapy, Sauna Blankets & More.
