High on Healthy Podcasts

In this episode of High on Healthy, host Richard Zwicky sits down with Dr. Justin Jacques, founder of the Human Theory Group, to explore the critical need for objective data in mental health treatment.

Dr. Jack highlights the limitations of traditional self-reporting—which is often inconsistent and subject to personal bias—and discusses how advanced tools like neurofeedback (qEEG) and natural language processing can provide a more precise “map” of the brain. However, as a “radical humanist,”

Dr. Jack emphasizes that data should never replace the sacred therapeutic bond; instead, it should serve as a “guardrail” to help clinicians identify therapeutic ruptures, personalize care, and navigate the unique cultural and gender-based barriers that often prevent patients from reaching the core of their issues.

Dr. Sharad Paul, author of Biohacking Your Genes, discusses the core principle of epigenetics: that while genes are a blueprint, they are not destiny, and we can influence them through personal actions. He advocates for optimizing health span—or performance in the present—over extreme, unproven longevity interventions.

Dr. Paul highlights the most overlooked health principles as personal responsibility and the profound impact of diet and non-constant exercise, such as changing your running routes or practicing free-form dance like tango, to maintain brain health.

He shares that the MIND Diet can significantly reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and underscores the power of emotional health and mindset, noting that optimism and a sense of purpose are critical factors that influence physical healing.

He cautions against common mistakes like over-supplementation without proper genetic testing.

Dr. Jeff Feinman, a veterinarian, molecular biologist, and founder of Holistic Actions, joins Richard Zwicky to explore the profound, often unarticulated connection between animals, human mental health, and consciousness.

Dr. Feinman reveals that his deep understanding of this interrelationship came not from his scientific training but from a half-century of observation, leading him to recognize how relationships with animals are directly tied to the balance of life processes, a concept overlooked in conventional veterinary medicine.

He highlights that animals are masters of “energetic hygiene,” possessing the ability to rapidly “shake off” overstimulation and remain entirely focused on the present moment, a valuable lesson for humans who tend to ruminate and overthink.

In this episode of High on Healthy, host Richard Zwicky sits down with Dr. Sandra Bailey, a registered nurse and holistic practitioner who navigates the intersection of conventional healthcare and ancient shamanic traditions.

Dr. Bailey discusses her unique approach to treating depression, anxiety, and trauma by scanning the body for energetic “roots” and addressing spiritual concerns such as soul retrieval, past-life vows, and auric attachments.

While she maintains a background in clinical nursing, she explains how her remote shamanic practice—which includes wealth activation for businesses and central nervous system resets—offers a path for those who haven’t found relief through traditional psychiatry or medication alone.
