Hi guys! This is an important episode for me because I truly believe that “peace of mind,” is the greatest asset you could ever have. We have the power and ability to raise our vibrations, control where our energy goes and who receives it and can take responsibility to remind ourselves of the present moment.

Today, I will be discussing in greater length, the three things that I do daily to help maintain peace of mind:

I encourage you to listen and understand how important doing these on a daily basis is for your peace of mind. Let’s find balance and stay positive, together.

Wishing you the best of health.

Believe it or not, we are now half way through 2020 and it is a good reminder to check in on the goals we had set at the start of the year.

Have they shifted, pivoted, have you given up? Or have you stayed on track?

I agree that 2020, has been the most unique year for probably everyone and perhaps a lot of these events may have thrown you off track or stopped you completely from pursuing your goals.

But through it all there is a lesson. We have learned how important our health is, how important empathy towards one another is and how at the end, “change,” is a natural constant better to be welcomed than resisted.

In today’s podcast, I would like to take these lessons and apply them to our goals; revisit your goals and start to make progress. There is still time to achieve your goals.

How do you want to end 2020? Take a half year Audit, assess and execute. Start moving forward again.

In today's episode, I talk to Dr. Jessica Peatross about how our childhood, surroundings and nutrition can affect our immune system.

After going through a severe car accident as a teenager where she sustained a fractured back, Dr. Jessica Peatross pushed herself to understand the science of healing and to provide better treatment of chronic pain than what could be provided with addictive narcotics. Dr. Jess is driven to change others’ lives through empowerment and true education about health through her practice and she shares with us the following:

This is a very fascinating talk as Dr. Peatross has been very vocal during this pandemic on how we hold the power and can begin to make changes to not only support our immune systems, but also positively impact our overall health.

I hope you enjoy this episode!

Wishing you the best of health.

About Dr. Jessica Peatross:

Dr. Jess is a board-certified medical doctor and a certified Gerson Practitioner. She is an expert in the areas of stealth infections, environmental toxicity, regenerative medicine, ozone, and cannabis. Her passion lies in uncovering the mystery behind the chronic illness, whether that be stealth infections, heavy metals, stress/trauma or other environmental toxicities. There are real, root cause answers for WHY the body might be malfunctioning.

Trained in medicine at the University of Louisville, Dr. Jess experienced what many of her patients experienced: deep anxiety, hormonal imbalances, and adrenal dysfunction. She sought answers to uncover the root cause of disease – something she thought she had learned in medical school.

After working as an M.D. in a hospital for 6 years, Dr. Jess realized that she needed to investigate alternatives to today’s modern medical industry, which “treats every ill with a pill.” She became trained in Gerson Therapy, functional medicine, nutrigenomics, and ozone in her efforts to help her patients with chronic disease solutions.

In this episode, a special father figure to me joins the podcast.  Dr. Kirti Kalidas, MD. We discuss Dr. Kalidas' journey as a physician toward wellness and healing and specifically his shift from a more Western philosophy to an Eastern one.  

Dr. Kalidas moved from South Africa in the late 1990s to Washington D.C. to do his medical residency. After practicing as an Internist for over 11 years and while searching how to address the root cause, instead of merely masking the symptoms he learned about Naturopathy. A pivotal point in his practice, he went back to school for Naturopathic Medicine and for the last 20 years he has focused on chronic illnesses, hormones, cancer amongst others.

Dr. Kalidas shares with us his approach to healing, here are some highlights:

Dr. Kalidas also shares with us some things we can do during this unprecedented times

Here are some suggestions:

Dr. Kalidas does journaling daily in gratitude. Today is the only day we have, yesterday was an experience, tomorrow is something to look forward to, but we only have Now. The most challenging thing for a Covid patient is taking a breath- lack of oxygen. That is the biggest threat, and the fear that it creates. This pandemic brings a new realization to be grateful for the air we breathe.

Dr Kalidas' take away from chronic illness is don't be stuck on one diagnosis. Be cognizant of all foundational work; take a step back and look at it as a multitude of things rather than one thing and approach healing from a different perspective. In his Orlando practice he treats the whole person, with a functional approach to provide a bridge to health, hope and healing.

In this episode, I am super excited to be joined by Ian Lopatin, co-founder of Spiritual Gangster. We discussed his journey on beginning Spiritual Gangster and his insight on creating a business around your passion.

As a law student in the early 90s, Ian encountered yoga and it changed his path. being a sign from the Universe that inspired him to create a chain of studios that combined his love for hip hop music with his practice. Through this, he generated a local movement grounded in connectedness and inclusivity. Ian and his wife eventually felt called to grow this movement and started Spiritual Gangster, a yoga-inspired clothing brand, with the desire to share their practice with a global community. They designed each collection with the intention to inspire high vibration living both on and off the mat. What started off as a passion project has now scaled into a successful business, inspiring a global community of Spiritual Gangsters.

Ian discusses what it is like to be an entrepreneur and visionary and discusses what things we can do now due to Covid-19 restrictions.

We discuss in greater detail the following with Ian:

We also talk about how important it is to have a vision for your business. In times of change stay disciplined and create habits and rituals that serve you as much as you can. Be adaptable and have the right mindset; this is the root of all success and learnings.

As co-founder of Spiritual Gangster Ian has practiced gratitude, he has learned that as you grow and expand to become healthier you become wealthier. It is karmic when you raise peoples' vibrations and it comes back. His brand is not only clothing, it is creating a feeling, making people feel better, spreading good vibes and prosperity.

Hi guys! This is a special one for me because, quite honestly, I have been away from podcasting for a while now and it feels good get back at it. 

With the way things are right now, I feel there is an universal anxiety going around. This lead me to pick up the phone and speak to many of my mentors, friends and family members who are still able to be productive and positive during these times and see what they are doing to have the outlook they do. The interesting thing was that, they all had this "one" thing in common which I talk about in the podcast.  

Join me this week as I decided to do a "newsfast" and after speaking to many mentors I was encouraged to get back into creating and focusing on my creativity. When you focus on creative tasks your stress levels drop, you bring awareness to staying present and you are able to move forward.

I will discuss some ways to exercise your creativity such as:

Remember you "can" control the negativity intake, take a break; explore your creativity.

I encourage you to go within - Find balance and stay positive!
