Welcome to episode one of Open Discussions, our brand new podcast from Unseen Heroes. This week I got to sit down with two wise minds in the world of wellness. First is Scott Estrada, a man that has been key in my own personal journey towards a healthier lifestyle down to the cellular level. Then, I turn the mic to Dr. Maria Wright, a physician from Kaiser Permanente. Together we dig into the facts — and the myths — surrounding the groundbreaking Covid-19 vaccine, especially as it relates to the Black community. I'm very excited for you to hear the knowledge these two drop, so get ready, get open, and get on into this discussion with us.

Growing up in the PNW ever curious about what drives health & dis-ease Scott studied natural medicine and took an unconventional, non-linear route to find the truth he was seeking beyond what was offered in traditional academia. Working with a focus group for 5+ years to study peoples living in harmony with nature with no chronic dis-ease or illness as we know it in the West led to fundamental laws of health that allopathic medicine has largely left behind.
Connecting the dots of sea water & blood plasma for the foundation Scott was able to build a platform from and offer many tools to help guide people back into balance with these pillars. Coaching & Consulting has been his medium to work with individuals & corporate wellness clients; focusing on an epigenetic approach to make upgrades and healthy boundaries of a human’s ecosystem for better health outcomes.
In the last 4 years Scott has been working with the team at Intrinsic Health Series led by the groundbreaking research into the microbiome by Dr. Zach Bush, coaching people from all walks of life through the online program, Biology Base Camp.
You can find him leading workshops & retreats focusing on hydration/water, microbiome/gut health, nutrition/food education, movement/breath work, and reconnecting to nature’s wisdom.
