Welcome back, rebels!

Are you exhausted by conflicting wellness advice from influencers who seem more interested in selling than healing? Ready to rebel against an industry where "expertise" can literally be purchased for the right price?

Then this conversation with Sandy Kruse will validate everything you've suspected about the wellness world - and empower you to trust yourself instead of the latest guru.

• The shocking reality of bought expertise - How some wellness "experts" pay $30,000+ to be featured in high profile media as authorities
• Sandy's incredible personal journey - From three family health crises in three years to becoming a holistic nutritionist at 46
• Why following expert advice backfired - How Sandy became insulin resistant while doing intermittent fasting recommended by authorities
• The authenticity crisis in wellness - Podcasters charging guests money, bought followers, and hidden financial motivations
• How to spot fake vs. authentic wellness voices - Practical questions to separate genuine guidance from paid promotion
• The power of inner wisdom - Why trusting yourself trumps any external expert every time
• Practical health navigation - Building your own team of practitioners and using discernment in research

Sandy Kruse: "Once again, it's like you need to have these, whether it is even some practitioners that are online that you know and trust are good. Having a physician that's your best health advocate that wants the best for you... it's like you have your team, right? That know you."

Sandy Kruse: "I became insulin resistant while I was doing 16:8 listening to one of the experts... So I'm like, no, I'm living proof because my HbA1c went up to 6.1 while I was doing that. And so what I was doing was I was listening to an expert, not listening to my body."

Gregory Anne: "And I think we downplay our own inner wisdom. We as a collective group of women at any age, and if we had never been good at trusting ourselves before, by the time we're 50, 60, now, we're really like... you just gotta clear out all that noise and really give it a chance, right? Give your own inner wisdom a chance to come out."

Sandy Kruse: "The biggest blocker of that inner wisdom is... fear. So I've been there before where you're scared shitless because you just got a diagnosis... and fear can really blur that inner wisdom and what feels right... but then also never being quiet."

While the industry promotes expensive protocols and one-size-fits-all solutions, the real path to health lies in developing discernment, curating a team of trusted professionals, and trusting your own body's wisdom. Sandy's journey from health crisis to holistic nutrition expertise proves that authentic healing happens when you combine knowledge with intuition, not blind obedience to authorities.

Sometimes the most rebellious thing we can do is refuse to outsource our health decisions to influencers who may...

Are you tired of accepting that vision problems, learning struggles, or cognitive decline are just "part of life"?Ready to rebel against the idea that your brain can't learn new tricks at any age? Then this episode is going to blow your mind!

Today's guest, Dr. Dana Dean, is here to challenge everything you think you know about vision - and rebels, this goes WAY beyond needing glasses. We're talking about a complete paradigm shift in how your brain processes information, learns new skills, and reaches its full potential.

🔥 The rebellious truth about vision: It's learned - which means it can be retrained and optimized throughout your entire life

🧠 Why 75% of all sensory input is vision - and how nobody teaches us to handle this massive information stream properly

💥 How 2 in 4 children have undiagnosed vision-related learning issues that often get mislabeled as ADHD or other conditions

⚡ The real story behind stroke recovery: How patients can rewire neural pathways through vision training when traditional therapy plateaus

🎯 Visual memory vs. rote memorization - the game-changing difference that transforms how you learn and remember

🚀 Why primitive reflexes matter for adults - and how something as simple as crawling can unlock better cognitive function

✨ The connection between C-sections and learning difficulties - plus how to address these challenges at any age

Here's what the medical establishment doesn't always tell you: Vision is learned. While conventional wisdom says you're stuck with the vision you're born with (plus whatever glasses can fix), the research shows something completely different.

Dr. Dean reveals how vision training can help:

• Stroke patients regain cognitive function faster than traditional therapies
• Children with learning struggles overcome challenges without medication
• Adults experiencing vision changes retrain their depth perception and visual processing
• Anyone feeling cognitively overwhelmed learn to efficiently process the 75% of sensory input that comes through vision

This isn't just another wellness trend - it's a paradigm shift in understanding human potential.

From struggling student to vision revolutionary, Dr. Dean's personal story proves that limitations don't have to be permanent. After being a straight-A student in South Africa, she hit a wall in later years of school, barely made it through college, and then failed her optometry boards three times.

The turning point? Discovering vision training. After just six months of working on her own vision intelligence, she retook the boards and scored nearly perfect. That experience transformed not just her career, but her entire mission to help others break free from unnecessary limitations.

Are you tired of knee pain dictating what you can and can't do? Ready to rebel against the idea that chronic pain is just something you have to live with? Then this episode is for you.

I'm sitting down with two absolute game-changers in the world of knee pain relief: Tom Andriacchi (Emeritus Professor at Stanford and 50-year veteran of knee pain research) and Jenny Hledik (former marathoner turned biomedical engineer). Together, they've created something revolutionary called KNEEMO - and the testimonials are incredible.

And Tom and Jenny have generously offered a 20% discount with code WELLNESS20 applied in the cart.

🧠 The Science That Changes Everything

• How the "gate control theory" allows vibration to literally block pain signals from reaching your brain
• Why staying active is actually BETTER for your joints than "protecting" them
• The surprising connection between knee pain, obesity, and the sedentary lifestyle trap

⚡ KNEEMO: Smart Technology That Actually Works

• Motion-sensing bands that know exactly when to apply vibration during your movement
• Real-time adaptation whether you're walking, jogging, playing pickleball, or climbing stairs
• How this isn't just pain relief - it's functional improvement

💪 The Results That Matter

• Immediate improvements in quadriceps muscle function
• Enhanced proprioception (your body's sense of where it is in space)
• Better stair navigation and balance - no more fear of falling!
• Post-surgery success stories that will give you hope

"We wanted to apply our expertise to working on things that help people, especially people that were suffering with pain."- Tom Andriacchi

"You should stay moving to support your joint health. That helps to reduce stiffness and improve flexibility." - Jenny Hledik

"We saw drastic improvements... for the naked eye, you see them struggling and then when they were wearing KNEEMO... they were better able to get their motion under control." - Jenny Hledik

✅ Anyone dealing with knee osteoarthritis

✅ Post-knee replacement patients still experiencing pain

✅ Athletes with ACL or meniscus tears

✅ Active adults who want to stay that way

✅ People afraid of losing their balance or mobility

✅ Anyone looking for non-invasive pain solutions

✅ Physical therapy patients struggling with pain compliance

Here's what the medical establishment doesn't always tell you: movement is medicine. While conventional wisdom says "rest and protect," the research shows that strategic, supported activity is what your joints actually crave.

Tom and Jenny aren't just selling a device - they're challenging the entire paradigm of how we think about pain management. Instead of masking symptoms, they're addressing the root functional issues that keep us trapped in cycles of pain and inactivity.

Tom revealed they're working on applications for back pain, shoulders, elbows, and ankles using the same revolutionary technology. The future of pain management isn't in a pill bottle - it's in smart, responsive technology that works WITH your body's natural healing mechanisms.
