If you ever have the misfortune of needing to go to an emergency room, requiring a hospital stay, being in need of a particular medication, or even just having a general encounter with your primary doctor, you would hope that all decisions regarding your care and health are being made with your best interest, the…
In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past few years, our healthcare system is crumbling. The costs have skyrocketed, getting appointments with your doctors is much harder, the best doctors are leaving medicine (because they are fed up with all the changes), and at the end of the day, the current healthcare…
Whether you are trying to improve your relationships, your finances, your health, or your business, the principles for improvement and mastery are the same.

Once our minds associate words to things, it often dictates how we move forward. Some words are empowering, others are paralyzing. Some elicit excitement, others instill fear, weakness, or disgust. Many words are…
I recently read that depression and anxiety have increased 25% since 2020. Almost half of our population is obese, with childhood obesity reaching epidemic numbers.
