  • 98. CRYSTALLIZATION: The Art in Me
    2026/10/15

    In this intimate and reflective transmission on the Compromised to Alchemized podcast, I take you behind the scenes of my recent live appearances at the Healthspan Summit and beyond. We will explore the deeper mouth-to-body connection, the mechanics of fascia, gravity, and cellular resonance. Also, I reflect on my identity, before the titles of clinician or scientist, I am a singer and dancer first. I challenge you to stop shrinking your capacity, step into your "Zone of Genius," and embrace the synchronicities that light us up from within.

  • 93. CLINICAL: From Severe Insomnia to 70M Views - Dr. Laura Caylor’s Airway Awakening
    2026/09/09
    In this episode of the Compromised to Alchemized podcast, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with airway-centered dentist Dr. Laura Caylor. You might already recognize her—one of her reels showing a baby's intense suction force hit over 70 million views! We dive deep into her personal journey, the viral response to her posts, and the massive disconnect in how we currently evaluate and treat oral dysfunction and airway issues in infants and adults alike.Dr. Laura Caylor is a general dentist and mother whose own family's health journey challenged much of what she thought she knew about health. As she searched for answers for her children—and eventually herself—she discovered the profound connections between oral function, breathing, sleep, facial development, and overall wellbeing. Today, her clinical practice focuses on airway health, tethered oral tissues, and craniofacial development, with an emphasis on collaborative, evidence-informed care. Her mission is to help both parents and healthcare professionals ask better questions, think beyond symptoms, and understand the bigger picture of health.Time Stamps0:00:00 | Intro0:05:16 | Start of the interview0:08:15 | How has going viral impacted you?0:12:31 | The viral exam video with millions of views0:16:27 | Recap of the comments from mothers struggling with breastfeeding0:17:40 | Dr. Caylor reflects on her journey with breastfeeding0:21:30 | Dr. Caylor’s Tongue Tie Course0:26:41 | 20 second apnea before and after videos and why this needs to be addressed sooner0:31:30 | Rarely do you grow out of dysfunction0:41:30 | The invitation from Dr. Caylor0:45:47 | Laura’s story0:52:35 | Laura’s daughter’s night terrors0:58:19 | The importance of screening the nose1:02:30 | What is your personal legend?Connect with Dr. Laura Caylor:https://drlauracaylor.com/https://www.instagram.com/dr.lauracaylor/🎵 like the music?

  • 92. CATALYST: Decoupling Health from Comfort with Morozko Co-Founder, CEO Dr. Thomas Seager
    2026/09/02
    In this dynamic episode, I connect with Dr. Thomas Seager to explore the biophysics of nature-inspired healing. The conversation begins with a prelude featuring Dean Hall, who provides insight into Dr. Seager’s background, character, and warmth beyond his academic achievements. Dr. Seager and ! dive into the science of cold thermogenesis, examining how cold exposure impacts nervous system regulation and stimulates internal light production to synthesize vitamin D. We also explore the emerging science of green light therapy, ancestral wisdom around wood fires, the importance of trace minerals, and how to develop an independent mindset to make meaning out of life's symbols.Thomas Seager, PhD is CEO of Morozko Forge ice bath company, which he co-founded in 2018. He is also Associate Professor in the School of Sustainable Engineering & the Built Environment at Arizona State University in Tempe, AZ and has authored two books:Uncommon Cold: The Science & Experience of Cold Plunge Therapy, andUncommon Testosterone: Cold Plunge Therapy for Optimizing Sexual Health.Packed with hundreds of scientific citations and documented case studies, these works are the definitive scientific companions to cold plunge therapy. Professor Seager has also published more than 150 scientific articles related to human & infrastructure resilience, industrial ecology, and the environment.Time Stamps0:00:00 | Intro0:03:53 | Inspired by Amy Poehler’s podcast Good Hang, “talking well about a guest” Dean Hall talks well about Thomas Seager0:09:01 | How Dean met Thomas0:20:26 | Start of interview with Thomas Seager0:24:54 | The greatest power in the ice bath: balancing the nervous system0:29:04 | Irregularities of vitamin D absorption and how it is correlated to autoimmune diseases0:41:50 | Question from Dean: What will they say about Thomas Seager?0:48:30 | The new, new thing: Green Light0:59:33 | The role of minerals in our cells1:02:26 | There is wisdom in our cultural traditions.1:13:15 | What is your personal legend?1:20:25 | How do you know you are on track with your personal legend?Connect with Dr. Thomas Seager:https://www.instagram.com/morozkoforge/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv-G53CnYU3IAEDnE1DUpGghttps://www.mygreenlamp.com/🎵 like the music?

  • 91. CONNECTIVITY: Reclaiming Connection, Time, and Whole-Child Healing with Dr. Erick Galindo
    2026/08/26

    In this episode, I connect with pediatrician Dr. Erick Galindo Valdes MD for a deep conversation on connectivity, human presence, and the evolution of healthcare. Dr. Erick is an integrative pediatrician in Guadalajara, Mexico. Moving beyond conventional pharmacology and rigid mechanics, we explore how pediatric health is rooted in cellular communication, autonomic regulation, the vagus nerve, and the sacred dyad between mother and child.

    From the ritual of a morning coffee pour-over to handling complex oral restrictions and infant development, this episode serves as a powerful reminder to slow down, honor nature, and reclaim time in our approach to healing.
