So join us on this journey to discover new ways to take care of our minds, bodies, and souls, and let's work together to create a healthier, happier world one episode at a time. So let's get started. Hello, hello and welcome to Healthy Waves to our listeners, The Life podcast, where we dive deep into the diverse, uh, and dynamic topics with the help of expert discussions. So, uh, whether it's health, wellness, um, mental well-being or, uh, the latest innovations, we have got it all covered with the insights from the professionals who are leading the way in their respective fields. So tune in, engage and write the waves of knowledge with us. And, uh, so today I'd love to introduce you to our guest, Harlan Pickett. Welcome to the show, Harlan. Thank you so very much. It is my pleasure to be here, sir. Lovely, lovely. So, Harlan, before we start, I'd quickly love to introduce you to the listeners. Uh, the listeners. So, uh, leveraging almost two decades of, uh, uh, rich experience in the healthcare industry and his profound knowledge as the insurance broker, he has, uh, journeyed through the shifting, uh, signs of the insurance and the healthcare sector. So, uh, over the years, uh, he has adapted, innovated and recognized the need for affordable yet comprehensive insurance coverage, which is tailored to the individual needs. So champions are alternative funded solutions, disrupting the traditional insurance landscapes to make room for more flexible and personalized healthcare plans. So his work with Eagle Care uh, health solution insurers like, uh, everyone gets the health care they deserve without breaking the bank. So we're thrilled to have you with us, Harlan. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you so very much. Uh, you know, this is this is truly my passion to make sure people have access to the health care that they deserve. And it's such a huge deal because the whole health care system is so complicated, and people don't get the care that they need. And, you know, just like the the name of your show, the healthy, you know, healthy mind, healthy life that is that is just so true. I think it is so true that you have to have those things working in conjunction, because if you don't have your health and you're really missing out, right, you're you're really going to be behind the eight ball there. And we know if you start having health problems, the mental issues that come with that are not far behind. And it just then it starts snowballing and things just go off the rails really quickly. Exactly, exactly. So to start with, I mean, um, if you can share your perspective on how primary care providers can play a pivotal role in supporting the mental health for their parents. Sorry, patients. My bad. Yeah, yeah. No, that's a great question because that's where it really all starts. One of the the biggest misconceptions that people have is that they should only go to the doctor when they're sick. If you wait until things get that bad, or until you get what we call sick care what you want, you get into sick care. You're already behind. Now you're playing catch up to get ahead of the game that you could have been ahead of to begin with, if you were taking care of yourself with the right kind of primary care and preventative care, if you were out there actively making sure that your health stayed, stay good, and that goes right back into the mental health side of it, because most folks do not realize how much training a primary care doctor has towards that as well. That's usually your first line of defense against anxiety, against depression. So many of those things that start out and then it can can really start rolling downhill. And, man, you're in big trouble now because you didn't catch those early and start getting treatments. And treatments don't have to be medication, folks. A lot of times just having that conversation and getting ahead of it before it becomes a bigger problem that can put you in a whole different place. Yeah. One of the good things that came out of Covid is that people are a little more. Open to speak about some of the psychological things that happened during that time. You know, we're humans are social animals and being locked into a place where they couldn't interact with people, it had a very detrimental effect on a number of people. And the the person that you should turn to first to talk about that is actually your primary care physician. Uh, but here is the tough part of it. In a traditional system, uh, like we have here in America, where it's a fee for service. The fee for service primary care doctor typically doesn't have time to spend with you. They only have 5 to 7 minutes to talk about all of your issues. So then they're just referring you off to somebody else. Well, that's where these alternative models come in with direct primary care. Advanced primary care. Those doctors give you 30, 45 an hour worth of time to really dig into what's going on and help you in a more holistic way. That is the future, and that is what can help you have that healthy mind and healthy life. Exactly. That's very true. Yeah. So, uh. Okay. Also, like, how do you see, uh, the role of alternative, uh, funded health care solutions contributing to the overall healing of the mind, body and soul? Yeah. So the, the the solution that you choose, whether it is a traditional health solution, a health insurance plan or an alternative funded plan will determine the time of type of care you get. I know that sounds kind of crazy, but it's amazing how many people I ask them, hey, who do you get your health care from? And they name their insurance company? Well, let me tell you something, folks. There is not a single insurance company out there that provides health care. They pay for health care, but they don't provide health care. So when you start letting someone dictate, in this case, an insurance company who you go and see and how long you can see them, because they're only going to pay for so much, that's when you find yourself in trouble. That is why getting an alternative health solution, something that's a little outside of the box. But that is all so centered around you as the patient and not on profit. Let's let's be honest what our insurance companies about profiteering, right. They're their profit companies. And if they're out there to make profit, you're not in the center of it. Uh, but when you have a plan that's built around you, that's built around the actual patient, that means that you will now get the services that you deserve and you get the care that you deserve, and we'll have a much better outcomes. And once again, back to the name of your show. Have a healthier mind and healthier life. That's what it's all about. That's really what it's all about, is giving someone the time, giving someone the care that they deserve, and having someone listen to them. That's one of the biggest complaints people have is my. My doctor doesn't listen to me. My doctor. I think this is what's going on. I really want to talk to my doctor about it. But they don't have time. And whenever I am talking to them, it's like they're not listening to me. They've already decided what they want to do, refer me out or give me another medication. And you know, how many people have I seen that have this giant list of medications? And half of those medications are to counteract the side effects of the other medications that they're taking. So it's just a vicious cycle that they're in where medication is not always the answer. Care. Proper care is the answer. Exactly. Yeah. Also, like, uh, what, according to you, are some of the common misconceptions people have about the alternative funded solutions in the health care? No, that's a that's an excellent, excellent question. Because as soon asSupport the showWant to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life? 👉  DM me on PodMatch 💬 Want to come on the show?

I'm your host and together we will explore the nuances of the mental and the physical wellbeing and also at the same time, uncover the new perspectives and provide the practical advice to help you lead a healthier and more fulfilling life. So. But before we delve deep into the topic, because today's topic is very great, where we'll be talking about from shadows to the serenity, like harnessing the power of your mind to overcome the addiction, trauma, chronic illness, and others. So, uh, but before we do that, uh, I really love to introduce you to all of our guests. So we'll start with Dave. Dave. Maury. So, uh, the listeners, Dave, uh, lives with the bipolar disorder and is the beacon of hope and the humor for many. So as the bestselling author of the OMG That's me mental health books and stand up comic, he teaches others with the mental illness how to find humor in the darkest days. So his journey from hospitalization and homelessness, uh, to becoming a transformative figure in the mental health is nothing short of inspiring. So through his work, uh, Dave shatters the stigma, shares laughter, and offers a message of resilience and recovery. So welcome to the show, Dave. Thank you. Okay. So we'll quickly also introduce you to our, uh, next guest, Micheal Martin. So, uh, like, following a series of life changing events, Michael turned of nature and turned to nature to find that inner peace and heal himself. So after a difficult, uh, divorce, he embarked on a solo backpacking trip that led him to reconnect with the, uh, tranquility and the resilience of the natural world. So his journey of self-discovery and the emotional healing in the wilderness has given him a renewed sense of peace and the purpose which he now shares to inspire others. Also, we have, on the other hand, we have Len Len May. So he is a pioneer in the, uh, uh, medical cannabis industry and the CEO and the co-founder of Endo DNA with over 25 years of experience, Lin has shaped the legislation and culture around the cannabis, and his expertise in genomics and, um, uh, into the system has revolutionized the personalized health and the, uh, wellness. So, uh, his mission is to educate and empower the individuals through the healing powers of cannabis and the personalized medicine. So welcome to the show, Len. And, uh. Uh, Michael. Thanks for having me. Appreciate it. Lovely, lovely. So to start with, uh, I'll quickly, uh, start with Martin. Uh, so, so, uh, so, Michael, like, uh, to start with, I mean, how do you I mean, how did your solo backpacking trip to the wilderness contribute to your emotional and mental healing after, uh, uh, the phase you've been through? Uh, and what lessons did you learn during that journey? So I think overall through that journey, I rediscovered something that somebody took away from me, which was my sense of self-worth, my sense of self value. And it expanded and really took shape once I learned to embrace the idea of meditation. And once I started working that into my practice of sitting in the wilderness and learning how to befriend myself and befriend the different emotions that I was struggling with, I started to gain a sense of balance and peace and that journey. It's taught me to not only rely on the skill set that I've learned throughout life, but it's also taught me to be open to the different examples that I encounter within the living world around me. Okay. Okay. So, um. Okay. Thanks. Thanks for sharing. Uh, this. Michael. So, uh, I'll come to the, like the, like, uh, uh, so exploring the humor in the healing, uh, if you can share with us, like, how the humor became, uh, pivotal tool in your recovery journey and also, at the same time, how it can transform the lives of those with the mental illness. Um, I had a breakdown in in 1996 and from 1996 to 2010, where my last years, my dark days, uh, suffering in silence. Um, just hiding from from everyone. And then in 2010, I took a stand up comedy class for folks with mental illness, and it changed my life. Instead of, uh, me having the thought and, uh, about a past trauma and reliving that experience, I started to look for the humor in in those triggers, those things that would trigger those, those, uh, memories and, and take me to those darkest places. And once I started doing that, it again, it changed. It changed everything. I, I when the trigger happened, uh, I no longer went to those dark places. I looked for the humor in it, and, like, Lynn was talking. You know, Lynn's talking about cannabis. And I have a cannabis joke. When, uh, when cannabis was legalized in in Oregon, uh, we got a new airline. It's called Air Cannabis, and they don't charge it by how far you go, but by how high you get. So you know, it does a couple things. One, it it it, uh, made a huge difference in my life. And then I teach standup comedy to others, and I see the same transformation in them. And, you know, I'll be able to talk a little bit about that. Um, but it it also helps shatter the stigma. People, when people find out I'm bipolar, uh, you know, they tend to back away and, and actually run away as fast as they can. But by including some humor, it humanizes me. It makes it so much less scary and helps shatter the stigma. Lovely. Thank you. Thank you so much for sharing. Yeah. So I'll come to Len. Um, so after that joke. Definitely. So, uh, we'll, uh, so regarding that personalized health through the, uh, genomics, uh, if you can, if you can share, I mean, how, uh, know DNAs technology harness the power of DNA to provide that personalized, uh, health recommendations and how this can be beneficial for the individuals who are dealing with the chronic illness. Yeah. I just want to say that Dave and I got the orange memo, and I think Mike didn't get the memo, so we're, uh, we're we're very coordinated today. Uh, so, uh, I didn't check my email before this. My apologies. Yeah. I'm sorry. Uh, so I wanted to, uh, kind of take a step back and really explain to people. And I really appreciate everybody's sharing their personal journeys, because that's what it is. Uh, we are all individuals, and we all should be treated personally, individually, and not like one size fits all. Uh, medicine and wellness. That's what. That's how we treat it today. And, you know, focusing on the root cause of something instead of addressing with a pill or a shot. So I just want to say, you know, I always focused on we started with the endocannabinoid system. That was that was my goal because I was noticing I was a dispensary owner at the time, had five different dispensaries under the same brand, uh, in Southern California. And, uh, I was noticing that people would consume the same chemical variety and have a completely different experience. And the first thing I did, I focused on a plant genomics. So doing genetic sequencing in the plant, we named this plan different names, but it really doesn't mean anything. It's what the components of the plant are that you're putting in your body. So once I started realizing that, I started looking at the human genetic side and merging those two together, not defined. You know, what is the ultimate plan? It's to help people avoid or mitigate possible adverse events. So now your DNA is your personalized roadmap. So this is your human, uh, G.P.S. system. It shows you where your own personal potholes are in your road. Where is thSupport the showWant to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life? 👉  DM me on PodMatch 💬 Want to come on the show?
