Balancing Chaos Podcast

On this episode, Dr. Alejandro Younger, a cardiologist, pioneer in functional medicine, 3x NYT bestseller and author of "CLEAN 7," shares his journey from traditional cardiologist to holistic healer. When Dr. Junger, was a young adult undergoing his medical training, he went through what too many people often experience: multiple, seemingly unrelated yet compounding, health issues. He soon found himself in a chaotic state of being over-medicated, unimproved, and totally out of balance with the natural rhythms of his own body. With an intuition that an undetermined cause lay at the root, he set out on a journey to find a better solution to his myriad of ailments. Eager to find an answer, he cast aside typical boundaries between Eastern versus Western medicine and ancient wisdom versus modern science. In this episode, he discusses the importance of detoxification and how his program can reset the body and improve mental clarity- not to mention drastically increase life expectancy. Dr. Junger also discusses his perspective on the appropriate diet, the challenges of being a vegan, intermittent fasting and detoxification, and the overwhelming importance of intestinal health.

Solo Episode: Social Media, Alcohol and Maintaining a Healthy Relationship with Kelley and Chad

For this week's episode, join Kelley and Chad for a solo episode on many of the questions our listeners have been asking about. In this segment, we discuss a few different hot topics that we've over time changed our outlook on that have truly transformed our lives (both personally and as a couple). First we discuss our candid thoughts on social media, our personal relationships with our own phones and the sometimes tenuous relationship our kids have with technology. From there, we dive into our thoughts on alcohol and how life with less (or none at all) of it has made an impact on the way we feel physically, our careers and social interaction. Finally, Kelley and Chad offer up tips on how to make a relationship stronger and what we do to maintain a healthy marriage amidst the chaos of two working parents who are starting a family.

In this episode of the Balancing Chaos podcast, hosts Chad and Kelley interview Jamie Graber, a transformational life coach who works with the subconscious mind to create change. Ultimately, Jamie helps people see themselves in a new light and leave behind stories they've been telling themselves for so long. She talks about how being a projector in human design allows her to see people's essence and ask questions that shift their perspective. As perspective is so paramount to outcomes, controlling your own thoughts and preconceived notions is truly the first step to pursuing your personal and professional goals. In this episode we discuss surrendering to outcomes, comfort vs. familiarity, manifesting your future self, and controlling the subconscious mind as a mechanism to creating a fulfilling future. Being self honest is one of the hardest things to master, but if done correctly, is the catalyst for a changes in relationships, personal life and business. Join us for an amazing episode that is sure to inspire!
