    In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Dr. Jenn Simmons, former breast surgeon, author of The Smart Woman’s Guide to Breast Cancer, and founder of PerfeQTion Imaging, to explore how her own breast cancer diagnosis transformed her perspective on cancer care, functional medicine, and women’s health. After losing women in her family to breast cancer, Dr. Simmons pursued a career in breast surgery. Her diagnosis at age 46 prompted her to question aspects of the conventional medical approach she had practiced and explore a different perspective on health and healing.Dr. Simmons shares her views on lifestyle, potential contributing factors to illness, and the importance of considering long-term well-being and quality of life alongside treatment decisions. Simone and Dr. Simmons also discuss mammography, lead-time bias, and PerfeQTion Imaging’s approach to breast imaging without radiation or breast compression. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Simmons encourages women to become informed participants in decisions about screening and treatment, while clarifying that her perspective does not mean avoiding conventional cancer care.KEY TAKEAWAYSAsk deeper questions about health: Dr. Simmons encourages exploring potential contributing factors to illness rather than focusing exclusively on the diagnosis.Lifestyle matters: Everyday habits, health practices, and recovery support are important topics to consider as part of long-term well-being.A patient’s perspective can change a physician’s approach: Her own breast cancer diagnosis prompted her to reassess her professional experience and study functional medicine.Understand screening and its limitations: The discussion explores mammography, lead-time bias, and how screening outcomes are communicated.Make informed, individualized decisions: Dr. Simmons emphasizes personal choice and does not advise women to reject conventional cancer treatment. (Screening and treatment decisions should be discussed with qualified healthcare professionals.)BEST MOMENTS“We're never taught to ask why it happened. We're never taught to say what could this be the symptom of?”“Cancer is a normal response to an abnormal environment, and we have to look at what is driving that response.”“Health happens at home with the things that you do every day.”“I don't tell women to not do conventional treatment. If you feel called to have surgery, have surgery. If you feel called to have radiation, have radiation. If you feel called to have chemotherapy, have chemotherapy.”“She just lives another five years with the knowledge that she has breast cancer.”GUEST INFORMATIONDr. Jenn SimmonsA former breast surgeon, functional medicine advocate, author of The Smart Woman’s Guide to Breast Cancer, and founder of PerfeQTion™ Imaging.

  • The Peptide Experiment: What Happens After Using Them - with Ray Schloss

    The Peptide Experiment: What Happens After Using Them - with Ray Schloss
    2026/09/21
    What does it take to stay energetic, strong, and vibrant as we age? In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Ray Schloss, founder of Thriving 247, to explore peptides, longevity, mitochondrial health, and the lifestyle choices that influence how we age. Ray shares how resistance training, sobriety, mindset, and self-care have helped him maintain his vitality into his 60s.Ray also opens up about experiencing severe fatigue following mold exposure and long COVID, which led him to explore peptides as part of his recovery. Together, Simone and Ray discuss mitochondrial health, GLP-1 medications, nutrition, muscle preservation, and why peptides should be viewed as tools—not substitutes for the foundations of healthy living.KEY TAKEAWAYSLifestyle remains the foundation of longevity, with resistance training, nutrition, recovery, and consistent self-care playing essential roles in maintaining strength and vitality.Mindset can influence how we approach aging, and Ray explains why he made a conscious decision early in life to continue taking care of himself rather than accepting decline as inevitable.Mitochondrial health plays an important role in energy, and Ray shares how his experience with severe fatigue led him to investigate peptides and other approaches to recovery.GLP-1 medications and other peptides are tools rather than shortcuts, and their use should be considered alongside adequate nutrition, protein intake, resistance training, and appropriate medical guidance.The body is continually regenerating, making everyday choices around food, movement, sleep, environment, and recovery part of the larger longevity picture.BEST MOMENTS“I just fundamentally started to believe that I’m going to stay youthful and vibrant as long as I can—and I refuse to decline.”“Seeing my father give up on taking care of himself made me decide early on: that is not going to happen to me.”“You owe it to your partner to keep taking care of yourself; they liked you for a reason, and it’s not fair to let yourself go once you feel ‘safe’.”“The body is in a constant state of regeneration—cells die, new cells are born—and every choice you make is either helping that process or hurting it.”“Peptides aren’t a magic bullet; if you don’t change your habits, the weight and the problems come back with a vengeance.”GUEST INFORMATIONRay Schloss is the founder of Thriving 247, a longevity and wellness platform shaped by his years of experience in biohacking, meditation, personal development, and coaching.

    2026/09/03
    In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Paula to explore heart–brain coherence and what it means to move from a mind-driven life to a heart-led one. Drawing from her work with HeartMath, breathwork, sound journeys, and energetic practices, Paula shares practical ways to quiet overthinking, reconnect with the body, and cultivate a greater sense of calm and presence.Paula also opens up about the personal challenges that led her deeper into this work and the realization that transformation isn't always about learning something new—sometimes, it's about remembering what's already within us. Together, Simone and Paula explore self-love, emotional energy, manifestation, and how shifting attention from fearful mental stories toward the heart can change the way we experience ourselves and our lives.KEY TAKEAWAYSHeart-focused breathing can be a useful practice for cultivating calm, presence, and emotional regulation.Where we place our attention can influence how we respond to stress, emotions, and everyday challenges.Breath and heart-focused practices can help interrupt overthinking and bring attention back to the present moment.Paula explores the idea of allowing the heart, rather than fearful mental narratives, to guide how we move through life.Self-love goes beyond an idea—it can become something we intentionally practice, feel, and embody.BEST MOMENTS"Our heart, the energy in our heart, is the driving force… as you focus your attention on the heart, that energy expands.""The mind will love to create many, many stories that aren't true—that's where the anxiety and the depression come in… using the breath is my mechanism to bring it back home to me.""It's not that I need to learn this—it's remembering. It's reminding our bodies what they're capable of and how they're meant to operate.""That emotion, that energetic feeling, is literal bliss… nothing else matters, what appeared to be challenges just isn't even a thing.""Manifesting isn't a thing we try to do—it's our way of life. We're doing it all the time, like right now it's happening."GUEST INFORMATIONPaula Star Finney is a practitioner whose work explores heart–brain coherence, breathwork, sound, energy, and personal transformation.

  • Five Years Later... What have We Learned Since Covid - Dr. Robert Malone

    Five Years Later... What have We Learned Since Covid - Dr. Robert Malone
    2026/08/24
    Five years after COVID changed the world, what have we actually learned? In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Dr. Robert Malone to revisit the pandemic years and examine the questions, decisions, and controversies that continue to shape how we understand that period. Dr. Malone reflects on his own experience in early 2020, how his understanding evolved as new information emerged, and why he believes the pandemic exposed deeper problems involving public health, scientific institutions, government, pharmaceutical interests, censorship, and the flow of information.Looking back five years later, Simone and Dr. Malone explore what the COVID era may have taught us about institutional trust, propaganda, fear, medical debate, personal autonomy, and the consequences of allowing centralized systems to determine what information can be questioned. The conversation ultimately moves beyond COVID and asks a larger question: What do we do with what we've learned? Dr. Malone shares his perspective on rebuilding personal sovereignty through critical thinking, stronger local communities, food independence, regenerative living, and becoming less dependent on centralized institutions.KEY TAKEAWAYSDr. Malone reflects on how early COVID narratives were shaped and how his own understanding changed as more information emerged.Questions around COVID's origins, public-health decisions, and institutional transparency continue to fuel debate.The treatment of dissenting clinicians raised important questions about censorship and open scientific discussion.Dr. Malone examines the role of fear, messaging, and social pressure during the pandemic.Five years later, he argues that critical thinking, self-reliance, and personal sovereignty are among the most important lessons.BEST MOMENTS"I took at face value a number of the what are now clearly the kindest thing we could say would be misleading statements… and I had to confront that I'd been caught up in propaganda myself.""You had physicians in the field… actively testing repurposed drug strategies… and in their hands they were being very effective at keeping people from dying and helping them recover and get out of the hospital.""I told people: you have to think for yourself rather than trusting centralized authorities… because what we've seen is that those authorities are not insulated from financial and political interests.""We decided to live on a small farm, to grow food, to work with animals… and that's not just about food security, it's about mental health and freedom—about reclaiming a sense of sovereignty in your own life."GUEST INFORMATIONDr. Robert Malone is a physician, scientist, author, and biotechnology researcher known for his early work involving mRNA and DNA vaccine technology. He is also a prominent voice in discussions surrounding COVID-19 policy, public health, censorship, medical freedom, and personal sovereignty.Website: https://www.malone.news/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DrRobertWMaloneMDBook: Homesteading for Health: One Farm Family's Guide to Food, Land, and Self-Sufficiency — https://a.co/d/01mWVvcxHOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a seasoned coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential.

  • VACCINES - What Are We Actually Doing to the Immune System

    VACCINES - What Are We Actually Doing to the Immune System
    2026/08/10
    In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi takes a deeper look at vaccines through the lens of the immune system, bodily sovereignty, informed consent, and personal responsibility. Drawing from her holistic health perspective, Simone explores questions around how the immune system works, how different forms of immunity are understood, and what it means to make informed decisions about medical interventions.Simone discusses the importance of understanding what is being introduced into the body, why it is being recommended, and the potential risks and benefits before making a decision. She explores questions surrounding vaccine ingredients, vaccine-induced versus naturally acquired immunity, and the role of nutrition, sleep, movement, sunlight, and other lifestyle factors in supporting overall immune health.A major focus of this episode is the difference between recommendation, requirement, and genuine informed consent. Simone shares a personal experience involving an HPV vaccination campaign at her son's school and how the situation led her to question medical authority, parental rights, and the boundaries of bodily autonomy. The conversation expands into broader questions surrounding vaccine mandates, pharmaceutical liability, COVID-era policies, and what can happen when people feel pressured to make healthcare decisions without fully understanding their choices.Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to ask questions, understand your options, and take an active role in decisions involving your health and your family's wellbeing.KEY TAKEAWAYSInformed consent requires understanding what is being recommended, why it is being recommended, and the potential risks and benefits involved.There is an important distinction between something being recommended and something being legally required, making it important to understand the policies and rights that apply to each situation.Simone explores the idea that supporting immune health also involves foundational lifestyle factors such as nutrition, sleep, movement, sunlight, and overall wellbeing.Medical decisions can raise important ethical questions when individuals feel pressured, threatened, or unable to make a genuinely voluntary choice.Taking responsibility for your health means asking questions, seeking information from qualified sources, and making informed decisions rather than surrendering your ability to think critically.BEST MOMENTS"Informed consent means very little if you don’t actually understand what you’re consenting to—or what you’re consenting to being done to your kids.""You should never let anybody from the medical community coerce you, force you, intimidate you, push you, or in any way pressure you to inject anything into your body.""You are the steward of your body, not the state, not the school, not the government, not public health, not anybody.""I was not willing to betray my values, my beliefs, or my role as a mom.""Do not hand over your power and your sovereignty.

  • Can a Virus Actually Be Isolated? Dr. Tom Cowan Explains Why He Says NO

    Can a Virus Actually Be Isolated? Dr. Tom Cowan Explains Why He Says NO
    2026/07/29

    What if one of the biggest assumptions in modern medicine has never been questioned the way you think?


    In this thought-provoking conversation, Dr. Tom Cowan explains why he believes viruses have never been isolated in the way most people imagine—and why that distinction changes everything.


    Whether you agree with him or not, this episode will challenge you to think more critically about virology, scientific methodology, and how medical consensus is formed.


    In this episode, we discuss:

    • What “viral isolation” actually means.
    • Why Dr. Cowan believes the methods used to identify viruses deserve closer examination.
    • The laboratory process he argues is misunderstood.
    • HPV, polio, and other viruses through the lens of his interpretation of virology.
    • Why questioning scientific assumptions is not the same as rejecting science.
    • How critical thinking begins with asking better questions.


    This conversation isn’t about telling you what to believe.


    It’s about inviting you to hear an argument in full before deciding what you think.

    She Tried to End her Life 12 Times - Here's What Finally Changed | Jane Dawson
    2026/06/29
    ⚠️ DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT HEALTH OR MEDICAL ADVICE. The views and experiences shared in this episode are for educational and informational purposes only. Always consult your healthcare practitioner before making any health-related decisions.In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi shares the powerful and deeply personal healing journey of Jane, whose life story is a testament to resilience, transformation, and the possibility of rebuilding after unimaginable pain.Jane opens up about beginning to drink at just 11 years old as a way to cope with bullying, family dysfunction, trauma, and the deep belief that something was wrong with her. What began as an attempt to numb emotional pain developed into years of addiction, repeated rehabilitation stays, shame, trauma, and a struggle to find her own worth.Through decades of challenges—including substance abuse, emotional suffering, physical health struggles, strokes, and moments when she felt beyond saving—Jane discovered that healing required more than changing behaviors. It required transforming the beliefs she held about herself. Through recovery work, affirmations, spirituality, and a deeper understanding of consciousness, she began shifting from a place of shame and self-destruction into self-love, empowerment, and purpose.Together, Simone and Jane explore the connection between trauma, addiction, shame, the nervous system, and the power of changing the stories we tell ourselves. This inspiring conversation reminds listeners that healing is possible, no matter how far someone feels they have fallen.KEY TAKEAWAYSAddiction is often connected to unresolved emotional pain, trauma, and the desire to escape suffering—not simply a lack of willpower.Changing an addiction without addressing the deeper wound can leave the same patterns showing up in different ways.Shame can become a powerful cycle that fuels relapse, self-destruction, and feelings of hopelessness.Our thoughts, beliefs, and inner dialogue can play an important role in how we experience ourselves and our lives.No one is beyond healing or transformation. Even after years of struggle, it is possible to reclaim your power, rebuild your life, and reconnect with your worth.BEST MOMENTS“It’s weird that you shared that—that’s my life… that’s me, and I survived, and then I thrived.”“Alcohol hijacks your brain so fast.”“I started telling myself new truths… I am powerful, I am loved, and I am capable of healing.”“You are not broken. You are deeply loved, and you have more power to change than you realize.”“Through compassion and self-love, we can begin to transform the parts of ourselves we once thought were impossible to heal.”GUEST INFORMATIONJane is a survivor, spiritual teacher, and advocate for personal transformation whose journey reflects the power of healing after trauma, addiction, and profound life challenges. After years of struggling with addiction, shame, and physical limitations, Jane discovered a new relationship with herself through recovery, spiritual growth, and conscious transformation. Today, she shares her story to inspire others to recognize their own worth, reconnect with their inner strength, and believe that change is always possible.Reach out to Jane Dawson: janemdawson@gmail.comHOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a seasoned coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential.
