Transcribe →"Outlaws" in Holistic Health? With Dr. Brandon Drabek, ND
Apr 2001:15:12Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailIn this episode, we sit down and chat with Dr Brandon Drabek about Traditional Naturopathy, his story about how he got to where he is professionally, what's happening currently in Ohio that can affect the practice of naturopathy on a state and national level, what it's like to be a male practitioner in a female-dominated industry, and how men and women differ in how they approach care, the difficulty of insurance vs cash pay practices (and why clients benefit from paying out of pocket).Brandon Drabek, ND, is a ninth-generation Geauga County resident raised in Parkman, Ohio, where his connection to the land and to community-based care began early. He was first inspired by his grandmother’s knowledge of plants and trees, by a great-uncle who practiced medicine after establishing his office on the family farm, and by the D.O.s who served as his family physicians in childhood. Together, those influences shaped his respect for a model of care that values nature, prevention, clinical discernment, and the whole person. As Clinical Director of Geauga Holistic Rehabilitation Institute (GHRI) in Chesterland, he oversees a holistic rehabilitation approach focused on restoring function, improving resilience, and helping patients move out of recurring cycles of fatigue, metabolic dysfunction, and stress-related decline. His clinical work combines detailed case review and lab-informed insight with personalized lifestyle strategy, nervous system regulation, appropriately scaled movement, and targeted natural therapeutics.With 15+ years of experience and more than 10,000 post-graduate clinical hours, Brandon is recognized for meeting patients where they are, clarifying complex clinical patterns, and creating practical care plans that can be implemented in real life.Education & Professional FormationGreat Lakes School of Integrative Medicine (2014) — Multi-Certified Holistic Health Practitioner.

Transcribe →Happy, Hungry, and Horny- The Prometabolic Way with Jake Miner
Apr 6, 202501:23:29Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailContent Warning! This episode digs into subject matter that isn't for the faint of heart (or young ears)! Joel and Rose had a fun, explicit, and mind-blowing conversation with Jake Miner, from Onyx Coaching as he schooled us on the truth about how we can actually optimize our health based on real science as taught by Dr. Raymond Peat. Even better- Jake has one of those health recovery stories that truly inspires those of us looking for answers. In addition to having all sorts of coaching certifications, Jake studied Neuroscience at Copenhagen University. Don't let his muscles fool you, he's a science nerd, too! Jake's story: "Years ago, I was dealing with a host of health problems: severe hypothyroidism, estrogen dominance, sleep issues, gut problems—you name it. I saw multiple doctors, but the only solutions they offered were antidepressants (SSRIs) and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). Desperate for answers, I tried various diets—Keto, Carnivore, Vegan—along with countless supplements, but nothing worked. My health continued to decline, with my testosterone plummeting to 206 ng/dL. I was cold, had lumps in my chest, and felt completely lost.Over the next 8 years, I turned my life around. I raised my testosterone to 1323 ng/dL, balanced my hormones, and improved my overall health. Along the way, I discovered the work of Ray Peat, which profoundly influenced my approach to health and wellness. Now, I’ve coached over 5,000 people, helping them understand the importance of metabolic health. I believe that many of our modern health issues stem from our inability to convert food into energy, instead turning it into fat. By addressing these imbalances, we can achieve the vibrant health we all desire."To hire Jake for coaching, please visit http://onyxcoaching.me and you can find his other links HERE Support the showClick here to visit Golden Ratio Wellness's website and use the "Become a Client" button to explore ways to work with Dr. Rose and associates on metabolic and hormonal health.

The Breath of Life: God-Focused Healing
Apr 26, 202300:46:34Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailIn this episode, I sit down with Amy Coleman, Respiratory Therapist and Certified Revelation Wellness Instructor, to discuss how she overcame a myriad of mid-life health problems after attending a nine week life-changing discipleship course. She found that trauma is a root cause of illness and that the spiritual piece is often missing for those who are trying to heal. She also discovered that healing is not a linear process, that breath work is vital, identifying and managing stress is key, that movement is a form of worship, and that "shoulding all over ourselves" gets us nowhere. Amy now works with clients who are on a holistic healing journey and helps them to "reveal things to heal things."More info about Amy and how to connect:I help Christian women find joy and freedom in their Mind, Body, Spirit and Soul so that they can live free in who God created them to be!
