The AMA says pharmacists expanding into clinical roles is “scope creep”, but what if it’s exactly what patients need? Dr. Tamar Lawful breaks down the truth behind the turf war and how pharmacists are saving lives beyond the counter.

What do you think when you hear “scope creep”?

If you’re a pharmacist, it might sting especially when the American Medical Association says you're stepping out of line for doing what you're trained to do. 

But is it really about patient safety… or professional turf protection?

In this solo episode, Dr. Tamar Lawful peels back the layers on the AMA’s position, shares personal stories from the front lines of pharmacy, and explains why now is the time for pharmacists to stop waiting for permission and start owning their expertise.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• Why pharmacists are fully equipped to offer personalized, clinical care
• The real reason behind the AMA’s pushback on pharmacist-led services
• How pharmacists are already improving patient outcomes—and the data to prove it

You’ll walk away fired up and ready to advocate for yourself, your patients, and your profession.

Your genes are not a prison, they’re a roadmap. In this episode, Dr. Mark Sherwood unpacks how stress, trauma, and environment—not just DNA—shape your long-term health and healing.

Have you ever felt afraid to learn what your genes say about you?

You’re not alone—but here’s the truth: your DNA isn’t destiny. It’s a draft. And in this week’s powerful conversation with Dr. Mark Sherwood, you’ll learn how to rewrite that draft every day through your lifestyle, mindset, and even peptide-based medicine.

Dr. Sherwood shares how environmental stress, trauma, and cortisol can shut down healthy gene expression and what to do instead. We also explore the most misunderstood SNPs (like MTHFR and APOE4), the hype around direct-to-consumer testing, and how personalized medicine is evolving into a future powered by proteomics and peptides.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• Why knowing your genes isn’t the problem - misusing them is
• How trauma and stress suppress your body's ability to heal at the cellular level
• What peptide-based therapies and proteomic testing mean for the future of personalized wellness
  
  

Your genes might explain your tendencies, but they don’t dictate your outcomes.

Struggling to help clients break free from diet cycles and emotional eating? Today’s guest, Elizabeth Dall, shares how mindful eating transforms metabolism, mindset, and lasting results—without restriction or calorie counting.

Have your clients ever said they “know what to do”—but still can’t seem to follow through?

It’s frustrating when we hand over the perfect nutrition plan, only to watch our patients spiral back into stress eating, burnout, or extreme restriction. The truth? Knowledge alone isn’t enough. If we don’t address the emotional and behavioral patterns behind food choices, the cycle just repeats.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Elizabeth Dall, intuitive eating counselor and host of the Woman of Wellness podcast, to explore a more functional, mindful, and compassionate way to approach food and health.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• Why restrictive eating backfires—and what to do instead
• How emotions and burnout sabotage even the best health intentions
• What mindful eating really looks like (and how to guide clients into it)

This conversation blends the science of nutrition with the soul of behavior change—so you can help your clients finally break free from food fear and find their flow.
