Send us a Text Message. In this episode, I sit down with return guests Amanda Porta and Robyn Towt to discuss an extremely important update within the breast implant industry. With a new, "safer" Motiva implant pending FDA approval, these women want to make sure the truth is given to all women considering implants in the future. This implant (that was supposed to hit the U.S. market in 2023) claims to be vastly safer than its competitors because of revolutionary technology (including a microchip), and backed by "rigorous science" and "clinical data." Both Amanda and Robyn have graciously come back to properly educate us all on what's really going on and that despite claims, this shiny new option is not what it's cracked up to be. As well-known patient advocates, both women feel it is their duty and responsibility to highlight the unfortunate and consistent safety concerns, along with the fact that nearly all safety studies advertised by the company have conflicts of interest. These implants are also already approved in some countries, where authorities have come forward with serious concerns, considering the onset of symptoms/illness they are seeing. With the date of FDA approval unknown, these women are passionate about continuing to share the crucial importance of both real informed consent, as well as call attention to the common health concerns that are associated with ALL breast implants, including this upcoming option. They want women to be aware of the fact that the majority of doctors are not given the full story, and are sadly unaware of the realities of BII, as well as cancer concerns. https://www.instagram.com/theholisticbeautycoach/https://www.instagram.com/robyntowt/https://www.facebook.com/robyn.towt.7https://www.gpacunited.org/ Other IWP Episodes Regarding Breast Implant Illness: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2009046/13615033https://www.buzzsprout.com/2009046/13681625 https://www.instagram.com/well.with.vanessa/https://www.instagram.com/thegiftofgoods/www.youtube.com/@IntentionallyWellPodcastwww.tiktok.com/@well.with.vanessaHelp Abused and Homeless Animals CUDDLY helps give animals a healthy life & a loving home.

Send us a Text Message. WELL10Activation website: https://shorturl.at/jqwHI In this episode, I sit down with the CEO and Founder of Activation Products, Ian Clark. Ian's story is nothing short of incredible, as he was told he only had about three years left to live at the young age of 46. Along with going bankrupt and having the grave concern of not being around to raise his seven children, he courageously took matters into his own hands, healing his body and then some. After five remarkable years, Ian built a raw supplement business direct to consumer in his basement, which ended up reaching hundreds of thousands of people in just two years. Now many years later, Activation Products continues to stand out among the sea of supplement companies due to his relentless research and continued commitment to help people have faith in their own body's capabilities. Ian's story and leap of faith highlights one very important thing: The body CAN heal given the right tools and environment. His dedication to see his healing through wasn't an easy road, but it resulted in his now-superb health status, and was the catalyst to unlocking certain "keys" to cleaning up body toxicities we commonly deal with.

Send us a Text Message. In this episode, I have a forthright and highly thoughtful conversation with Chronic Pain Coach, Dan Buglio, who specializes in TMS (Tension Myositis Syndrome) and Mindbody resolution. This conversation is a MUST LISTEN if you or someone you know is suffering from chronic pain or other chronic symptoms DESPITE your/their diagnosis, imaging results, surgery reports, etc. Dan has been sharing content on how to break free from chronic pain through his Pain Free You channels for over four years now, and has helped thousands resolve chronic issues that were thought of as impossible to change. His work is largely based off of TMS (pioneered by Dr. John Sarno), but has also branched off to further educate people on what he calls "perceived danger pain." While pain is not "our fault," we can unintentionally find ourselves in a cycle of chronic pain due to the information our brain is continually receiving (this also includes a large range of other symptoms such as IBS, fibromyalgia, tinnitus, vertigo, anxiety, migraine headaches, skin issues, food sensitivities, etc.). Dan's goal is to teach others how to teach their brain that they are not in danger, therefore creating safety so the brain can then operate off of good information versus misinformation and bad data. The majority of us have been programmed to think that we have to live with chronic pain/symptoms due to injury, surgery, degeneration and age, a medical diagnosis, unknown reasons, and even repressed emotional turbulence/trauma. Many of us have also medicalized our situations, believing that there is no out because we feel we have a "real problem" that cannot be solved or fixed. However, countless willing people who've led with an open mind have changed their situations due to Dan's guidance, teachings, and daily videos. Please see all the resources below!

Tapping, also known as the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), is a very simple healing tool to help oneself clear mental and emotional blockages that could be keeping them stuck to any degree in life. Brad's genuine intent to share a couple basic videos on YouTube years ago exploded as people took to his creative and often humorous use of EFT, which led to his now massive online presence, with over 1000 videos and 45 million views. Tapping is used as an effective method of physically resetting the body’s fear response by tapping on energy meridians throughout the body, while talking through the process in order to facilitate the clearing of emotional resistance and/or trauma.

Join me as I sit down with international model, actress, and philanthropist Joy Corrigan, to candidly talk about her journey with Breast Implant Illness and how this experience has led her down a path towards self-discovery and deeper healing. This special episode highlights the very real issues concerning Breast Implant Illness, and how impactful the effects of implants can be on the body. Joy does a beautiful job of sharing her story, illustrating the road leading up to her decision to explant, and the emotional turbulence she experienced prior to surgery. We chat about the behind-the-scenes reality of what was physically going on for years and how her body's cues crept in little by little. This amazing conversation not only reveals the destructive nature of BII, but also calls attention to a much deeper message...as we dive into the importance of mental and emotional health, self-reflection, healing trauma, and more. Joy gives us a very raw take on how the modeling industry and it's expectations can take a massive toll on body image/self worth, and that we've all been sold a false bill of goods as to what true beauty really entails. Joy has discovered that she's been divinely called to share her journey and use her platform to help others potentially connect the dots in their own lives...while also bringing imperative awareness to the fact that authentic healing is much more than a physical venture. She shares that trial and struggle are a very real part of life despite career choices, success, status, or fame...and that it's ultimately OUR job to take agency over our health and life. You'll undoubtedly be touched by this conversation, as you're met with Joy's honesty and genuine determination to help others today and in the days ahead. Please don't forget to share this episode with someone you believe will benefit from listening, and if you feel called to share your thoughts with either Joy or myself, please don't hesitate...we'd love to hear from you. https://www.instagram.com/joycorrigan/ https://www.tiktok.com/@joycorrigan https://www.instagram.com/well.with.vanessa/https://www.instagram.com/thegiftofgoods/https://linktr.ee/thegiftofgoodsHelp Abused and Homeless Animals CUDDLY helps give animals a healthy life & a loving home.

Send us a Text Message. In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Patient Advocates Amanda Porta and Robyn Towt to have a much needed and detailed discussion about Breast Implant Illness. Both with remarkable stories and a passion for education, Amanda and Robyn are on a prominent mission to spread truth among women across the world, in efforts to highlight the very real and COMMON happenings associated with breast implants. Amanda has worked in and throughout the beauty/plastic surgery industry for decades, and was ultimately inspired to pursue Holistic Health coaching. Now laser focused on guiding women with BII towards healing and optimal health, she has dedicated her life to redirecting the public’s view on what health and beauty really entails. As someone who never saw critical or chronic health issues prior to implants, she’s determined to use her voice and expose the darker sides of beauty procedures and the industry’s dirty secrets. Robyn—now three-time cancer survivor—became co-founder of the Global Patient Advocacy Coalition (GPAC) and is also an administrator in various online support groups for women who are suffering from BII. She’s worked extensively with Arizona legislators in passing an informed consent law for breast implant surgery, and the GPAC team has also partnered with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) to develop a patient decision checklist. With both of these women having experienced BII and explant surgeries, they know firsthand how real and truly life-altering these decisions can be. They believe every patient should be given the opportunity to make an educated and informed choice, and that means having ALL of the information, not just selected information. https://www.instagram.com/theholisticbeautycoach/https://www.lymphlounge.comhttps://www.instagram.com/robyntowt/https://www.facebook.com/robyn.towt.7https://www.gpacunited.org/ https://www.instagram.com/well.with.vanessa/https://www.instagram.com/thegiftofgoods/https://linktr.ee/thegiftofgoods Help Abused and Homeless Animals CUDDLY helps give animals a healthy life & a loving home.
