HOW REAL HOME-COOKED FOOD ELIMINATED A DOG'S HEART LESION IN 90 DAYS - Dr. Robert's Rebel Story

You eat organic. You see a functional medicine doctor. You read labels. But what are you feeding your dog? In this episode of Rebels With a Root Cause, Dr. Ruth Roberts, integrative veterinarian, creator of The Original CrockPET Diet, and founder of the Holistic Pet Health Coach Certification Program, reveals the uncomfortable truth about what's really in your pet's bowl.

This conversation covers everything from the hidden dangers of commercial kibble and canned pet food to how a simple slow-cooker recipe helped shrink a dog's heart lesion from the size of a marble to a piece of paper in just 90 days. It also tackles the massive gap between the 4,000 holistic vets in the U.S. and the 150 million pets desperately in need of better care and what Dr. Ruth is doing to close it.

"MEDICINE WAS BUILT ON MALE DATA" AND WOMEN ARE PAYING THE PRICE - DR. MORGAN'S REBEL STORY

"MEDICINE WAS BUILT ON MALE DATA (AND WOMEN ARE PAYING THE PRICE)" For decades, medicine has treated women like smaller versions of men. But what if the drugs, the dosages, and the diagnoses were never designed for them in the first place? In this episode of Rebels With a Root Cause, Dr. Jayne Morgan, cardiologist, CNN medical analyst, and VP of Medical Affairs at Hello Heart, pulls back the curtain on one of the most overlooked crises in modern healthcare. Women have been systematically excluded from clinical trials, misdiagnosed with symptoms written off as anxiety, and handed prescriptions based on data collected almost entirely from white men. The gender gap in medicine is not a new problem, but it is finally getting the attention it deserves. Heart disease is the #1 killer of women, yet most women don't know their cardiovascular risk dramatically increases during perimenopause and menopause. Female heart attack symptoms present differently from men's. Female bodies respond differently to medication. And yet the system keeps handing out the same diagnoses, the same dosages, and the same advice, regardless of gender, race, or age. Dr. Morgan has spent nearly a decade pushing this conversation forward, from leading COVID research at Piedmont Healthcare to appearing as a medical expert on CNN and Fox News to championing health equity and minority inclusion in cardiovascular clinical trials. Now she's bringing it here. From the hidden connection between menopause and heart disease to how artificial intelligence could revolutionize women's health faster than any clinical trial to why women make up 52% of the population but still follow a system built against them, this is the conversation modern medicine has been avoiding. If you've ever felt dismissed by your doctor, been prescribed something that didn't work, or been told your symptoms were just stress, this episode explains exactly why. And what's finally changing. What You'll Learn: ✅ Why Medical Research Has Been Built on White Male Data, And What That Means for Everyone Else ✅ The Shocking Link Between Menopause & Heart Disease Nobody Is Talking About ✅ Why Heart Disease Is the #1 Killer of Women, And Why We're Still Ignoring It ✅ How Doctors Are Quietly Doing Workarounds Because the Data Doesn't Fit Female Patients ✅ Why Specialists Working in Silos Is Failing Women at Every Stage of Life ✅ How AI Could Revolutionize Women's Health in Ways Clinical Trials Never Could ✅ Why Real Doctors Need to Show Up on Social Media, Now More Than Ever ✅ How Women Can Reclaim Their Power in a Healthcare System Not Built for Them In This Episode: (0:00) – Introduction: Dr. Jayne Morgan, Cardiologist & CNN Medical Analyst (2:30) – How a Pandemic Launched Her Media Career & What Doctors Can Learn From It (9:56) – Medicine Was Built on White Male Data; Here's What That Really Means for Your Health (13:00) – The Quiet Workarounds Doctors Use Because the System Is Broken (16:01) – Why Medical Silos Are Failing Female Patients at Every Stage of Life (19:18) – How AI Could Finally Close the Gender Gap in Women's Health (21:14) – Every 40 Seconds Someone Dies of a Heart Attack: What Women Still Don't Know (25:46) – Why Every Real Doctor Needs to Be on Social Media Right Now (29:27) – How Women Can Reclaim Their Power & Why 52% of the Population Shouldn't Be a Follower Contact Info: 🌐 helloheart.com [https://helloheart.com] 📱 Instagram, Threads & YouTube: @drjaynemorgan 📺 CNN & Fox News Medical Analyst | Host of HealthyHer: Women's Health Talk Show 🏥 Cardiologist, VP of Medical Affairs at Hello Heart & Adjunct Associate Professor at Morehouse School of Medicine 🎯 Specialties: Cardiovascular Disease, Women's Heart Health, Menopause & Perimenopause, Health Equity, AI in Medicine, Clinical Research & The Stairwell Chronicles

"I DID 15,000 SURGERIES — MANY WERE UNNECESSARY" - Dr. Amber & Dr. Josh's Rebel Story

"I DID 15,000 SURGERIES — AND TOO MANY OF THEM WERE UNNECESSARY" Surgeons are trained to heal. But what happens when the system they work in is designed to do the opposite? In this episode of Rebels With a Root Cause, Dr. Josh Schacter — board-certified orthopedic surgeon and osteopath — and his wife Amber share the story behind one of the boldest exits in modern medicine. After 15 years and 15,000+ surgeries, Josh was burning out inside a hospital system that valued production over patients, quotas over care, and procedures over prevention. After being told to operate more, question less, and ignore the root causes driving his patients' pain, Josh and Amber walked away from the golden handcuffs and built Pinnacle Integrative Orthopedics from the ground up. This conversation pulls back the curtain on the broken incentive structure of American healthcare, why up to 40% of orthopedic surgeries may be unnecessary, and how regenerative medicine is giving patients their lives back — without steroids, narcotics, or surgery. If you've ever been handed a diagnosis and told surgery is your only option, this episode will change everything.
