91. Practicing Functional Medicine to Actually Heal with Dr. Jeffrey Bland
What if everything you've been told about genetics and disease is keeping you trapped as a victim instead of empowered as the author of your health?
In this profound episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily sits down with the legendary Dr. Jeffrey Bland, biochemist, researcher, and the father of functional medicine, whose work has transformed the lives of millions by shifting healthcare from "what do we call it?" to "how did we get here?"
Dr. Bland reveals the life-changing truth that our genes don't determine our destiny—they simply offer potential. The real power lies in how we treat those genes through our daily choices: what we eat, how we breathe, how we move, and even how we think.
💡 In This Episode, We Explore:
✨ Why you're not a victim of your genes and how to activate your "good health genes"
✨ The revolutionary concept that food is information that speaks directly to your DNA
✨ Why autoimmune diseases aren't your body attacking you—they're your immune system protecting you
✨ How ultra-processed foods send "hostility signals" to your cells, triggering inflammation
✨ The personal tragedy that led Dr. Bland to dedicate his life to functional medicine
✨ A remarkable healing story: from housebound with autoimmune disease to climbing mountains
✨ Why meditation and stress reduction are essential for genetic expression
Dr. Bland shares the profound story of how losing his four-month-old son led him to study with two-time Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling and ultimately create the field that would help millions reclaim their health through addressing root causes rather than masking symptoms.
This conversation bridges 50 years of pioneering research with practical wisdom, showing how functional medicine empowers you to become the author of your own health story.

Gabby reveals her most powerful practices, from getting sunlight in her eyes first thing in the morning to her daily "weeding" ritual that keeps her relationships clean and her emotional slate clear.

This conversation will challenge you to stop making excuses, start with one small change, and remember that your health isn't separate from your life—it IS your life.

89. Dancing With Your Darkness with Sarah Jenks
What if the shadow parts you've been trying to heal, fix, or transcend are actually your greatest source of creative power?
🎉 Enrollment for the 2025 cohort of Ziva Magic is officially OPEN! Step into embodied manifesting, alchemize emotional blocks, and activate your inner magnetism. Join us now → https://makemagic.zivameditation.com.
In this profound episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily reunites with her beloved friend Sarah Jenks, ordained priestess, mother, and founder of the 13 Moon Mystery School, for a conversation that will forever change how you relate to your pain, your shadows, and your power.
Sarah opens up about her core wound of wanting to be liked and accepted, and how everything in her life—business, marriage, friendships—started crumbling as she approached her priestess ordination. Instead of trying to fix or bypass these patterns, she learned to descend into what we call the "sacred sewer" to meet the parts of herself she thought were unlovable.
In This Episode, We Explore:
✨ How to work with internal darkness (micro) and world pain (macro) simultaneously
✨ Why suffering is actually an avoidance of going all the way into the darkness
✨ The revolutionary practice of creating ceremony around your shadows
✨ How to sit with shame and rage until they alchemize into creative power
✨ The suppressed history of Mary Magdalene as Christ's equal and initiator
✨ Why the removal of the Divine Feminine was psychological warfare
✨ How your capacity for darkness directly expands your capacity for joy
Sarah demonstrates her process for descending into the depths, feeling everything fully, and allowing the natural alchemy that happens when we stop fighting our feelings and start dancing with them. We explore how this work isn't just personal healing, it's essential preparation for serving the world during these intense times.
This conversation bridges ancient feminine wisdom with practical shadow work, showing how the compost of our pain becomes the fertile ground for our greatest gifts.
🔥 Ready to stop running from your shadows and start dancing with them? This episode will show you exactly how to turn your perceived shit into alchemical gold.
