The Beautifully Broken Podcast

Today on the Beautifully Broken Podcast, I’m joined by Steve Revelli of American Biotech Labs—a trusted voice and formulator behind the cutting-edge Silver Biotics product line. We explore the multi-layered benefits of silver nanoparticles, including their powerful antimicrobial action that spares your natural flora while defending against pathogens like MRSA and VRE. Steve breaks down the difference between ionic and colloidal silver, dispels myths, and reveals why parts per million matter far less than particle structure.

Whether it’s boosting immunity, healing wounds, or enhancing recovery with clean, natural ingredients, silver is showing up as a hero product for families, athletes, and anyone wanting a low-cost, high-impact health tool. This is more than hype—this is healing through science, clarity, and intention. Tune in and discover how to empower your body with silver.

Welcome to a solo soapbox moment that’s long overdue. Today, we pull back the curtain on the supplement industry—how it works, where it fails, and what you can do to protect your health (and wallet). With up to 60% of Amazon supplements failing label accuracy tests, we explore the darker side of mass-market wellness: review hijacking, counterfeit listings, and contaminated formulas hiding in plain sight.

But this isn’t just fear-mongering. It’s about empowerment. I share simple, actionable steps to source better products, use independent testing tools, and navigate the system with clarity—not paranoia. You’ll also hear why no supplement can fix a body that’s out of balance, how genetic variations impact efficacy, and why foundational health still matters more than any magic pill.

HIGHLIGHTS

[00:35] - The dark truth about supplements on Amazon
[01:22] - Counterfeit capsules and rice flour fraud: real examples from Now Foods and Host Defense
[02:59] - How Amazon’s platform rewards reviews, not quality
[04:45] - New Amazon guidelines in 2024—and why they still fall short
[05:22] - The five smart rules for safer supplement shopping
[07:08] - Why functional foundations matter more than supplement stacks
[08:45] - The power (and danger) of methylated B vitamins in sensitive genotypes
[09:44] - Why coaches and concierge wellness programs are worth the investment
[10:08] - A future with QR code lab reports, blockchain, and transparency
[10:58] - Final thoughts: stop chasing overnight delivery, start chasing real change

Dr. Elise explains terrain therapy as a foundational approach: envision the body as a garden, and cancer as weeds thriving in poor soil. By excavating the terrain—balancing nutrients, reducing toxins, optimizing metabolism, and supporting detox pathways—she builds biological resilience and nurtures healthy cellular growth. We discuss trends she’s seeing in younger cancer clients and the detailed lab models she uses to assess angiogenesis, immune ratios, mitochondrial function, and inflammatory biomarkers. Elise also shares her personal journey caring for her mother through multiple cancer diagnoses, and how integrative modalities like fasting protocols, manual lymph drainage, meditation, and psychological insight work together with biology. Finally, we explore the role of mistletoe therapy in Germany and beyond, including how it may sensitize cells, reduce inflammation, and support long-term surveillance in an evidence-supported and cost-effective way.

This is not your average health conversation. Dr. Anil Bajnath joins me to decode the exposome—the totality of your lifelong exposures—and how it’s quietly shaping your energy, mood, resilience, and even your future disease risk. We explore how deep data from multi‑omics testing can translate into practical steps for healing, from detox pathways and mitochondrial support to the balance between rigorous science and joy-driven living.

Every week, my inbox fills up with questions like, “Freddie, what do you think of this gadget?” In a world overflowing with wellness tech—hydrogen water, PEMF, lymphatic suits—it’s hard to know what’s real and what’s just shiny marketing. So I’m laying it all out.

This episode breaks down the six core principles I use to evaluate technology: science and safety, lifestyle compatibility, value versus hype, brand reliability, longevity, and remembering the most important truth—your body does the healing. Whether you're a practitioner or just starting your wellness journey, these tips will help you make smart, aligned decisions with your energy, time, and dollars.

HIGHLIGHTS

[00:00] - Technology doesn’t heal—you do
[01:12] - My #1 principle: science, safety, and real validation
[02:58] - The Flowpresso example: lymph, sleep, and cellular hydration
[04:20] - Lifestyle compatibility: will you actually use this device?
[06:10] - Ice baths and the reality behind the hype
[07:47] - Value vs marketing: understanding true cost
[09:22] - Brand support: who picks up the phone when something breaks?
[10:10] - Longevity and market trends: is this company sticking around?
[11:10] - Final reminder: the body heals, tech just supports

Miesha Tate is a fighter in every sense of the word—but the real victories didn’t happen in the octagon. In this intimate episode, we go behind the title belts to explore the deeper work: healing trauma, redefining success, and reconnecting with the self.
Miesha opens up about being the only girl wrestling boys in high school, navigating a career in a male-dominated sport, and what happened when she hit a “false summit” of success that didn’t deliver the peace she was chasing. We talk about parenting with intention, recovery through movement and tech, and the spiritual and emotional work that brought her back to center.
Whether you’re facing burnout, parenting challenges, or your own inner critic—this episode is a powerful reminder that our greatest breakthroughs often begin with breaking down.

HIGHLIGHTS
[00:00] - Winning a UFC title—and realizing it didn’t fix what was broken
[05:32] - Miesha’s start in wrestling and early brushes with adversity
[12:26] - Why MMA is more mindful art than chaotic violence
[16:40] - The “false summit” of success and redefining identity
[23:19] - Breaking generational patterns as a parent
[27:34] - Plant medicine, prayer, and the road back to self

In this soulful and timely episode, I sit down with Dr. Melissa Sonners—chiropractor, author, and mother of three—for a deep conversation on navigating chronic illness, rediscovering inner wisdom, and healing in community. We talk about how neurological Lyme disease and mold toxicity shook her life—and how it ultimately became the catalyst for transformation.

Melissa shares why rest and stillness matter more than most of us admit, how brainwave rhythms can radically shape our state of being, and why connection (to ourselves and others) is the real medicine we all need. We also dive into her upcoming book The Connection Code, which provides tools to reclaim your voice, values, and vitality—especially in a world that often feels isolating. From power hours to playful rituals, this conversation is a heartfelt invitation to start listening to what your body’s been trying to say all along.

[01:40] - How a wellness festival sparked reconnection and community
[05:38] - Facing neurological Lyme, memory loss, and a full-body shutdown

[22:08] - The two-minute practice that can reconnect you to your inner voice
[33:58] - Creating true community by coming home to yourself
[39:04] - The brainwave blueprint: Theta, Alpha, Beta—and how to live in flow
[47:13] - The 3-part decision matrix: intuition, nervous system, and values
[55:49] - Behind the book: how The Connection Code came to life
[59:27] - Melissa’s one message to a divided world: come back to who you are

Welcome to the Beautifully Broken Podcast! In this solo episode, I open my heart and speak candidly about why I keep showing up to produce this show—and how it has become the greatest teacher in my life. I explore the eternal thread of human suffering that ties us to past civilizations, the modern epidemic of loneliness and chronic illness, and the quiet power of storytelling in igniting hope.

From the fall of Rome to the rise of suicide in the age of supercomputers, this reflection journeys through history, psychology, and the challenges of being human in 2025. I dive into what it means to live with intention, to own your healing, and why investing in personal growth is the best ROI you’ll ever find. If you're feeling disconnected or overwhelmed, let this be your call to anchor in purpose and choose to rewrite your story.
