Going Through the Change | Ep 133

Going Through the Change | Ep 133

Change is rarely comfortable... but what if it's the very place where God does some of His greatest work? In this episode, what begins as a lighthearted conversation about sorting loose change (and yes... going through "the change") unexpectedly unfolds into a heartfelt discussion about courage, faith, and the beautiful transformation that often happens in life's most uncertain seasons. Together, we explore why our brains naturally resist change, why uncertainty feels so overwhelming, and why the life we're praying for often requires letting go of the life we've grown comfortable living. Along the way, we share stories from our own journey—career changes, marriage, raising children, growing businesses, seasons of pruning, butterflies, and the quiet reminders that God is often preparing us for something greater long before we can see the full picture. For nearly three decades, we've tried to ask one simple question: How can we serve people best? Sometimes the answer isn't doing more of what's familiar. Sometimes it's having the discernment to recognize the next opportunity to serve, and the courage to faithfully take the next step, even before you can see how the story will unfold. If you've been standing at the edge of a decision... wrestling with fear... grieving a season that's ending... or sensing God inviting you into something new, we hope this conversation encourages your heart. Because sometimes the very thing we're trying to avoid becomes the doorway to the life we've been praying for. So grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and join us for a conversation filled with laughter, honest moments, and a reminder that our greatest confidence isn't found in knowing what comes next... it's found in knowing the One who is already there. Maybe the question isn't, "What if it doesn't work?" Maybe the better question is... "What if God is preparing something even more beautiful than you could imagine or fathom?" Isaiah 43:19 — "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?"

The Missing Ingredient in Most Families Today | Ep 132

What if one of the greatest threats to your family's health isn't what's on your plate...but what's missing from your table? Somewhere along the way, we traded home-cooked meals for convenience, family conversations for busy schedules, and life-giving traditions for drive-thrus and distractions. The result? Many families want to live healthier—they just don't know where to begin. In this heartfelt and semi-hilarious conversation, Dr. Terry introduces Lisa's newest book, The Living Well Family Table, and share why they believe reclaiming the "sacred supping" may be one of the most powerful investments we can make in our health, our relationships, and the next generation. From childhood grocery store adventures and funny kitchen disasters to practical meal planning, getting kids involved in cooking, and creating simple wellness rhythms that actually stick, this episode is filled with inspiration you can begin putting into practice today. Because living well isn't just about eating healthier... It's about building a life people can't wait to come home to. In this episode you'll discover: - Why the family table is one of the most overlooked tools for better health - The surprising reason healthy eating feels so overwhelming today - Simple ways to build lasting family rhythms—even when life feels busy - How involving children in cooking creates confidence, connection, and lifelong healthy habits - Practical meal planning strategies that remove decision fatigue - Why gathering together may be just as nourishing as the food on your plate Whether you're raising little ones, enjoying grandchildren, gathering friends around your table, or simply learning to care for yourself better, this episode will remind you that it's never too late to start creating a healthier family culture. As Lisa says... "When we gather, we nourish. When we nourish, we flourish...together." ❤️ If this conversation encouraged you, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who longs to bring a little more connection—and a little more health—back to their table.

The Diet Lie: Why 90% of Weight Loss Doesn't Last | Ep 131

What if the problem isn't your willpower... What if it's the diet itself? In this episode of Living Well Together, Dr. Terry and Lisa expose one of the biggest myths in the health industry: that losing weight is the answer. The truth? Weight gain is often just a symptom of metabolic dysfunction, and until you address the root cause, the cycle continues. In this conversation, you'll discover:  - Why nearly 90% of diets fail  - What metabolic health actually means (and why it matters more than the number on the scale)  -  The hidden calories quietly sabotaging your progress  -  Why muscle is one of your body's most powerful metabolic organs  -  The surprising role sleep plays in cravings and weight gain  -  The lab markers almost no one talks about including fasting insulin  -  Simple ways to improve insulin sensitivity naturally  -  Healthy waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio guidelines  -  Why "going on a diet" may be the biggest mistake you can make Whether you're trying to lose weight, improve your labs, boost your energy, or simply age well, this episode will help you shift your focus from temporary dieting to lasting metabolic restoration. The goal isn't just to lose weight... It's to become healthier, stronger, and more vibrant for the life you're called to live. Waist circumference & waist-to-hip ratio guidelines Formula: Waist Measurement ÷ Hip Measurement = WHR Example: Waist = 30" Hips = 40" 30 ÷ 40 = 0.75 Women's Guidelines: ✨ Below 0.80 = Excellent / Lower Risk ⚠️ 0.80–0.84 = Moderate Risk ⚠️ 0.85 and above = Increased Risk Men's Guidelines: ✨ Below 0.90 = Excellent / Lower Risk ⚠️ 0.90 and above = Increased Risk Know Your Numbers Many people don't realize they're experiencing metabolic dysfunction until years after it has already begun. These simple lab markers can provide valuable insight into your metabolic health and help identify opportunities for early intervention. Top Functional Lab Markers for Metabolic Health ⭐ Fasting Insulin: Optimal 2–5 μIU/mL Hemoglobin A1C: Optimal 4.8–5.3% Triglycerides: Optimal Under 80 mg/dL HDL Cholesterol: Optimal Above 60 mg/dL (women) | Above 50 mg/dL (men) ALT (Liver Enzyme): Optimal 15–25 U/L Additional Markers We Love to Review Fasting Glucose: 75–90 mg/dL hs-CRP (Inflammation): Under 1.0 mg/L AST: 15–25 U/L Uric Acid: Approximately 4.0–5.5 mg/dL Ferritin: Optimal range varies by the individual Vitamin D: Generally 50–80 ng/mL Want to Know Your Score?????

Your Body Is Sounding the Alarm (Are You Listening?) | Ep 130

What if your body has been trying to warn you... long before a health crisis ever happens? After being jolted awake at 1:00 AM by blaring smoke alarms, Dr. Terry and Lisa found themselves talking about something much bigger than dead batteries. Just like a smoke detector, our bodies often send subtle warning signs long before the "four-alarm fire" of chronic illness. In this episode, they explore why stress isn't meant to become a lifestyle, the difference between prevention and early detection, and how small "chirps" like fatigue, poor sleep, pain, brain fog, and rising blood pressure may be your body's way of asking for attention and not just another prescription. They also discuss the growing shift toward preventive healthcare, including innovative insurance models like Knew Health, which reward healthy lifestyle choices instead of simply paying for sickness after it occurs. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why chronic stress keeps your body stuck in fight-or-flight - The early warning signs your body may already be giving you - Prevention vs. early detection (and why the difference matters) - Why lifestyle—not genetics—drives most chronic disease - How "checking your batteries" today could prevent tomorrow's health crisis Resources Mentioned: - Learn more about Knew Health and its prevention-focused health plans.

Why You're Tired... and It's Not What You Think | Ep 129 Pt 2

In Part 2 of our Sleep Series, Dr. Terry and Lisa explore why sleep isn't just about getting more hours—it's about understanding what your body is trying to tell you. From stress hormones and blood sugar swings to nervous system health, inflammation, spinal alignment, and metabolic function, you'll discover why poor sleep is often a symptom rather than the real problem. In this episode, you'll learn: * Why being overtired can actually make sleep worse * What waking between 2:00–4:00 AM may be telling you * How your metabolism and sleep quality affect each other * Dr. Terry's favorite sleep positions for spinal health * Natural strategies to help your body relax and recover * Simple habits that can dramatically improve your sleep—starting tonight Most importantly, we discuss one question we believe everyone should ask: Instead of "How do I fix my sleep?" ask, "Why is my body struggling to sleep in the first place?" If you're ready to stop chasing symptoms and start discovering the root cause, this episode is for you.
