Can we trust the healthcare system? In this solo episode, I’m getting real about something I think a lot of us feel—how modern medicine sometimes leaves us disconnected from our bodies, relying on quick fixes and pills that don’t always get to the heart of things.

This isn’t about blaming doctors; it’s about us learning to reconnect and feel in control of our own health. So, let’s sit down together and dive into these beautiful, age-old practices that help us feel more balanced and truly cared for. We deserve to love and nurture our bodies, and I can’t wait to share how we can start doing that!   What We Discuss: 00:00 Intro 02:00 Misinformation in Modern Healthcare 06:09 Profit over People 09:31 Overprescription and overmedication 13:22 The Problem with Standardized Health Metrics 15:46 The History of Harmful Medications 18:56 Questioning the Safety of Medications 21:24 There is Always a Way and Another Option   Follow Radhi: https://www.instagram.com/radhidevlukia/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxWe9A4kMf9V_AHOXkGhCzQ https://www.facebook.com/radhidevlukia1/ https://www.tiktok.com/@radhidevlukia See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
