Um, life has been crazy over here guys. Uh, you know, two kids and uh here guys. Uh, you know, two kids and uh here guys. Uh, you know, two kids and uh birthdays galore in November. birthdays galore in November. birthdays galore in November. Uh, yeah. So, uh, so anywh who, Uh, yeah. So, uh, so anywh who, Uh, yeah. So, uh, so anywh who, I for those of you that have either I for those of you that have either I for those of you that have either worked with us or, um, worked with us or, um, worked with us or, um, have explored working with us, you've have explored working with us, you've have explored working with us, you've probably heard us talk about how most probably heard us talk about how most probably heard us talk about how most people embarking on a healing protocol people embarking on a healing protocol people embarking on a healing protocol will plateau in about six weeks. And it will plateau in about six weeks. And it will plateau in about six weeks. And it is actually one of the main reasons we is actually one of the main reasons we is actually one of the main reasons we have designed our programs to be the way have designed our programs to be the way have designed our programs to be the way that they are. So when people work with that they are. So when people work with that they are. So when people work with us, we are working very very hands-on us, we are working very very hands-on us, we are working very very hands-on with them through a concierge type of with them through a concierge type of with them through a concierge type of model, but we are always doing a six-w model, but we are always doing a six-w model, but we are always doing a six-w week re-evaluation week re-evaluation week re-evaluation and then a 12week re-evaluation, and then a 12week re-evaluation, and then a 12week re-evaluation, especially when we first get started especially when we first get started especially when we first get started with someone. [music] When we first get started with someone, When we first get started with someone, When we first get started with someone, more often than not, we're helping them more often than not, we're helping them more often than not, we're helping them to eliminate things out of the body that to eliminate things out of the body that to eliminate things out of the body that shouldn't be there. This could be shouldn't be there. This could be shouldn't be there. This could be different types of toxins and heavy different types of toxins and heavy different types of toxins and heavy metals, pesticide residues, infections, metals, pesticide residues, infections, metals, pesticide residues, infections, parasites, mold, bacteria, etc. And you parasites, mold, bacteria, etc. And you parasites, mold, bacteria, etc. And you know, I I want to just say this is, you know, I I want to just say this is, you know, I I want to just say this is, you know, I feel like my industry is so know, I feel like my industry is so know, I feel like my industry is so saturated with like detox, detox, detox, saturated with like detox, detox, detox, saturated with like detox, detox, detox, kill, kill, kill, get rid of, you know, kill, kill, kill, get rid of, you know, kill, kill, kill, get rid of, you know, mold. Everybody has mold. And that's not mold. Everybody has mold. And that's not mold. Everybody has mold. And that's not what I'm saying. But what is important what I'm saying. But what is important what I'm saying. But what is important to understand is that the majority of to understand is that the majority of to understand is that the majority of the people that I work with, their the people that I work with, their the people that I work with, their liver, kidneys, and lymphatic system, liver, kidneys, and lymphatic system, liver, kidneys, and lymphatic system, more liver than anything, it is kind of more liver than anything, it is kind of more liver than anything, it is kind of taxed out. It's like the taxed out. It's like the taxed out. It's like the they kept using the vacuum and the they kept using the vacuum and the they kept using the vacuum and the filter got full and nobody has dumped filter got full and nobody has dumped filter got full and nobody has dumped the filter. So, it is pretty standard the filter. So, it is pretty standard the filter. So, it is pretty standard that we're working on some level of that we're working on some level of that we're working on some level of cleanup with an individual because these cleanup with an individual because these cleanup with an individual because these organs that are vital to processing organs that are vital to processing organs that are vital to processing and metabolizing and metabolizing and metabolizing normal things that we come in contact normal things that we come in contact normal things that we come in contact with are just maxed out. especially if with are just maxed out. especially if with are just maxed out. especially if you are 40, 50, 60 and above. you are 40, 50, 60 and above. you are 40, 50, 60 and above. So getting back [laughter] So getting back [laughter] So getting back [laughter] the six week reevaluation, we don't the six week reevaluation, we don't the six week reevaluation, we don't necessarily rerun blood work labs. necessarily rerun blood work labs. necessarily rerun blood work labs. Sometimes we run some urine testing, but Sometimes we run some urine testing, but Sometimes we run some urine testing, but we run our DNA testing and we also we run our DNA testing and we also we run our DNA testing and we also retest the DNA to see are we continuing retest the DNA to see are we continuing retest the DNA to see are we continuing with the same types of supplements, with the same types of supplements, with the same types of supplements, therapies, protocols, or are we tweaking therapies, protocols, or are we tweaking therapies, protocols, or are we tweaking some things. And in most situations, we some things. And in most situations, we some things. And in most situations, we are having anywhere between a 50% to are having anywhere between a 50% to are having anywhere between a 50% to 100% change in everything that we're 100% change in everything that we're 100% change in everything that we're doing from lymphatic drainage techniques doing from lymphatic drainage techniques doing from lymphatic drainage techniques to supplements to herbs to detox to all to supplements to herbs to detox to all to supplements to herbs to detox to all of the above. And the reason is partly of the above. And the reason is partly of the above. And the reason is partly because the body has changed so much in because the body has changed so much in because the body has changed so much in that time frame. But it's also because that time frame. But it's also because that time frame. But it's also because if you continue, if you just keep going, if you continue, if you just keep going, if you continue, if you just keep going, more than likely people are going to not more than likely people are going to not more than likely people are going to not have as much profound effects. I heard have as much profound effects. I heard have as much profound effects. I heard it a million times. We we used to back it a million times. We we used to back it a million times. We we used to back in the day not do this. And the worst in the day not do this. And the worst in the day not do this. And the worst thing that I experienced as a thing that I experienced as a thing that I experienced as a practitioner is when someone says at 12 practitioner is when someone says at 12 practitioner is when someone says at 12 weeks of care, three months, they say, weeks of care, three months, they say, weeks of care, three months, they say, "I felt good, but now I feel like I went "I felt good, but now I feel like I went "I felt good, but now I feel like I went backwards in the second set of of the se backwards in the second set of of the se backwards in the second set of of the se six week interval. So I felt awesome for six week interval. So I felt awesome for six week interval. So I felt awesome for the first month and a half and then I the first month and a half and then I the first month and a half and then I feel like I went backwards and now I I feel like I went backwards and now I I feel like I went backwards and now I I just don't feel great." That was just just don't feel great." That was just just don't feel great." That was just like the ultimate disappointment like the ultimate disappointment like the ultimate disappointment obviously for me but for them. And so obviously for me but for them. And so obviously for me but for them. And so this is what got us thinking like okay this is what got us thinking like okay this is what got us thinking like okay we we got to reevaluate how we do things we we got to reevaluate how we do things we we got to reevaluate how we do things because you know we don't want people to because you know we don't want people to because you know we don't want people to hit a plateau number one and let alone hit a plateau number one and let alone hit a plateau number one and let alone hit a plateau and then feel like they hit a plateau and then feel like they hit a plateau and then feel like they went backwards. went backwards. went backwards. But in reflecting on this, cuz you guys But in reflecting on this, cuz you guys But in reflecting on this, cuz you guys know I'm always reflecting on know I'm always reflecting on know I'm always reflecting on everything, everything, everything, like feel like I'm such like this like feel like I'm such like this like feel like I'm such like this introspective thinker when I do these introspective thinker when I do these introspective thinker when I do these podcasts because I realize how I'm podcasts because I realize how I'm podcasts because I realize how I'm always essentially overanalyzing always essentially overanalyzing always essentially overanalyzing everything. But I think it's all for everything. But I think it's all for everything. But I think it's all for good reason to uh you know to help good reason to uh you know to help good reason to uh you know to help people think outside of the box and to people think outside of the box and to people think outside of the box and to help people understand deeper meanings help people understand deeper meanings help people understand deeper meanings to things that they're experiencing to things that they're experiencing to things that they're experiencing opposed to just putting a label on opposed to just putting a label on opposed to just putting a label on something being good or bad. something being good or bad. something being good or bad. So a plateau is not good or bad. It's So a plateau is not good or bad. It's So a plateau is not good or bad. It's just a feedback mechanism. It's there to just a feedback mechanism. It's there to just a feedback mechanism. It's there to say like, "Hey, change what you're say like, "Hey, change what you're say like, "Hey, change what you're [  ] doing." Ideally with some level [  ] doing." Ideally with some level [  ] doing." Ideally with some level of science and direction so that you of science and direction so that you of science and direction so that you don't waste time or money or energy. Um, don't waste time or money or energy. Um, don't waste time or money or energy. Um, but I think it's also telling us but I think it's also telling us but I think it's also telling us something about mindset. So I I want to something about mindset. So I I want to something about mindset. So I I want to explain the the easier to understand explain the the easier to understand explain the the easier to understand more practical logical version of this. more practical logical version of this. more practical logical version of this. People hit a plateau in six weeks People hit a plateau in six weeks People hit a plateau in six weeks because because because you're you start with a set of you're you start with a set of you're you start with a set of recommendations and that set of recommendations and that set of recommendations and that set of recommendations recommendations recommendations is going to be targeting very c very is going to be targeting very c very is going to be targeting very c very specific things. I'm speaking in the specific things. I'm speaking in the specific things. I'm speaking in the context of how we work, just FYI. I'm context of how we work, just FYI. I'm context of how we work, just FYI. I'm not speaking for every person in my not speaking for every person in my not speaking for every person in my industry. But if we're working on industry. But if we're working on industry. But if we're working on upregulating the the function of certain upregulating the the function of certain upregulating the the function of certain organs and we're also working on organs and we're also working on organs and we're also working on clearing certain things out, clearing certain things out, clearing certain things out, all of that is going to work really all of that is going to work really all of that is going to work really well. And then the body will build up a well. And then the body will build up a well. And then the body will build up a bit of a resistance. bit of a resistance. bit of a resistance. And if we are helping your body to And if we are helping your body to And if we are helping your body to excrete pathogens out like parasites or excrete pathogens out like parasites or excrete pathogens out like parasites or fungus or bacteria, fungus or bacteria, fungus or bacteria, those pathogens will develop a those pathogens will develop a those pathogens will develop a resistance to what you're doing also. resistance to what you're doing also. resistance to what you're doing also. And so essentially two examples. So, if And so essentially two examples. So, if And so essentially two examples. So, if you're using a product to kill a you're using a product to kill a you're using a product to kill a parasite in your body, it will be parasite in your body, it will be parasite in your body, it will be effective and then the parasites will effective and then the parasites will effective and then the parasites will learn how to become resistant to the learn how to become resistant to the learn how to become resistant to the killing agent because they're very killing agent because they're very killing agent because they're very intelligent and they evolve. It could be intelligent and they evolve. It could be intelligent and they evolve. It could be a similar situation when you have pests a similar situation when you have pests a similar situation when you have pests in your house. You have ants or you have in your house. You have ants or you have in your house. You have ants or you have ma mice or something like that and you ma mice or something like that and you ma mice or something like that and you use a certain product and it gets rid of use a certain product and it gets rid of use a certain product and it gets rid of them and then they come back the next them and then they come back the next them and then they come back the next summer. You use the same product and it summer. You use the same product and it summer. You use the same product and it doesn't work anymore. Those ants evolved doesn't work anymore. Those ants evolved doesn't work anymore. Those ants evolved and learned how to become resistant to and learned how to become resistant to and learned how to become resistant to the original thing that you used to the original thing that you used to the original thing that you used to eradicate them. Same thing goes inside eradicate them. Same thing goes inside eradicate them. Same thing goes inside of the body. of the body. of the body. With the organs, the organs, they will With the organs, the organs, they will With the organs, the organs, they will you'll introduce something to help them you'll introduce something to help them you'll introduce something to help them and then that will run its course. It and then that will run its course. It and then that will run its course. It will work. It could be a certain type of will work. It could be a certain type of will work. It could be a certain type of supplement that you're using to help the supplement that you're using to help the supplement that you're using to help the liver function better or it might be a liver function better or it might be a liver function better or it might be a certain frequency you're using through a certain frequency you're using through a certain frequency you're using through a PEMM PMF device to get the liver working PEMM PMF device to get the liver working PEMM PMF device to get the liver working better. And then the body's like, "Okay, better. And then the body's like, "Okay, better. And then the body's like, "Okay, I used this. I got where I am, but this I used this. I got where I am, but this I used this. I got where I am, but this is not going to take me any further. So is not going to take me any further. So is not going to take me any further. So now we need to introduce a different now we need to introduce a different now we need to introduce a different strategy in order to strategy in order to strategy in order to continue that progress. If you're a continue that progress. If you're a continue that progress. If you're a business owner, which I know a lot of business owner, which I know a lot of business owner, which I know a lot of our listeners are, it's the same idea is our listeners are, it's the same idea is our listeners are, it's the same idea is you have a very specific strategy to get you have a very specific strategy to get you have a very specific strategy to get you from A to B in your business. you you from A to B in your business. you you from A to B in your business. you reach that point and then chances are reach that point and then chances are reach that point and then chances are what's going to get you from B to C what's going to get you from B to C what's going to get you from B to C essentially your next phase of growth in essentially your next phase of growth in essentially your next phase of growth in your business your next phase of your business your next phase of your business your next phase of profitability your next phase of a a profitability your next phase of a a profitability your next phase of a a playing team you need a different playing team you need a different playing team you need a different strategy and again same exact idea strategy and again same exact idea strategy and again same exact idea happens in the body I will probably happens in the body I will probably happens in the body I will probably butcher this to hell for you sports butcher this to hell for you sports butcher this to hell for you sports people because this is usually what Dr. people because this is usually what Dr. people because this is usually what Dr. Nick chimes in on because I did not play Nick chimes in on because I did not play Nick chimes in on because I did not play team sports as a kid, but same idea, you team sports as a kid, but same idea, you team sports as a kid, but same idea, you know, you want to win a a game, then you know, you want to win a a game, then you know, you want to win a a game, then you have a strategy. If you want to win, you have a strategy. If you want to win, you have a strategy. If you want to win, you know, the the playoffs or, you know, you know, the the playoffs or, you know, you know, the the playoffs or, you know, you want to win against a better team, want to win against a better team, want to win against a better team, different strategy. So hopefully that different strategy. So hopefully that different strategy. So hopefully that actually made sense. [laughter] actually made sense. [laughter] actually made sense. [laughter] [gasps] [gasps] [gasps] Okay. So, so that's the gist when it Okay. So, so that's the gist when it Okay. So, so that's the gist when it comes to the the phys physicality, the comes to the the phys physicality, the comes to the the phys physicality, the physiological reasons why people would physiological reasons why people would physiological reasons why people would hit a plateau at 6 weeks and you now hit a plateau at 6 weeks and you now hit a plateau at 6 weeks and you now need a new strategy to keep the progress need a new strategy to keep the progress need a new strategy to keep the progress going. It's not that you're [  ] It's going. It's not that you're [  ] It's going. It's not that you're [  ] It's not that there's something wrong. It's not that there's something wrong. It's not that there's something wrong. It's not that it was a waste of time. No, it not that it was a waste of time. No, it not that it was a waste of time. No, it just it's just a feedback mechanism to just it's just a feedback mechanism to just it's just a feedback mechanism to say, let's do something different now so say, let's do something different now so say, let's do something different now so that we can continue moving in the right that we can continue moving in the right that we can continue moving in the right direction. direction. direction. But here is my my biggest insight as But here is my my biggest insight as But here is my my biggest insight as I've thought about this more is that part of this is mindset. And is that part of this is mindset. And is that part of this is mindset. And what I mean by that is what I mean by that is what I mean by that is a lot of us, not everyone, but a lot of a lot of us, not everyone, but a lot of a lot of us, not everyone, but a lot of us us us don't necessarily live a life of don't necessarily live a life of don't necessarily live a life of self-service. self-service. self-service. A lot of times we've been taught that A lot of times we've been taught that A lot of times we've been taught that the right thing to do, being quote the right thing to do, being quote the right thing to do, being quote unquote a good person, is helping unquote a good person, is helping unquote a good person, is helping others, being altruistic. others, being altruistic. others, being altruistic. It's um, you know, making sure that we It's um, you know, making sure that we It's um, you know, making sure that we appreciate others, we make other people appreciate others, we make other people appreciate others, we make other people happy, living a life of service, happy, living a life of service, happy, living a life of service, serving our families, serving our kids, serving our families, serving our kids, serving our families, serving our kids, serving our customers, serving our serving our customers, serving our serving our customers, serving our distant family members. serving our distant family members. serving our distant family members. serving our friends, you know, like it's it's friends, you know, like it's it's friends, you know, like it's it's selfish to to only think of yourself or selfish to to only think of yourself or selfish to to only think of yourself or care for yourself. It's best and it's a care for yourself. It's best and it's a care for yourself. It's best and it's a good thing to do. It's a noble thing to good thing to do. It's a noble thing to good thing to do. It's a noble thing to do in order to help others, take care of do in order to help others, take care of do in order to help others, take care of others, think of others, be kind to others, think of others, be kind to others, think of others, be kind to others, etc. And so, if you didn't grow others, etc. And so, if you didn't grow others, etc. And so, if you didn't grow up that way, um, you know, this this up that way, um, you know, this this up that way, um, you know, this this isn't going to land for you. But I think isn't going to land for you. But I think isn't going to land for you. But I think that at some point either our parents that at some point either our parents that at some point either our parents instilled this on us, teachers instilled instilled this on us, teachers instilled instilled this on us, teachers instilled this on us, religion instilled this on this on us, religion instilled this on this on us, religion instilled this on us, society. It came from a lot of us, society. It came from a lot of us, society. It came from a lot of different angles. It's not necessarily different angles. It's not necessarily different angles. It's not necessarily saying that your parents were the sole saying that your parents were the sole saying that your parents were the sole people that were were telling you to people that were were telling you to people that were were telling you to operate this way, but at some point it operate this way, but at some point it operate this way, but at some point it it's been told to you it's better to it's been told to you it's better to it's been told to you it's better to serve others than to serve yourself serve others than to serve yourself serve others than to serve yourself because serving yourself is selfish. because serving yourself is selfish. because serving yourself is selfish. and sure as hell serve your your spouse and sure as hell serve your your spouse and sure as hell serve your your spouse and your kids and your mom and your dad and your kids and your mom and your dad and your kids and your mom and your dad and all of those people before serving and all of those people before serving and all of those people before serving yourself. [snorts] yourself. [snorts] yourself. [snorts] But then, you know, you have that simple But then, you know, you have that simple But then, you know, you have that simple example on the plane is put your [  ] example on the plane is put your [  ] example on the plane is put your [  ] mask on because if you die, you can't mask on because if you die, you can't mask on because if you die, you can't help anybody. [laughter] help anybody. [laughter] help anybody. [laughter] [gasps] And it's, you know, these these [gasps] And it's, you know, these these [gasps] And it's, you know, these these little uh subtle reminders of it's little uh subtle reminders of it's little uh subtle reminders of it's really not a great way to operate is to really not a great way to operate is to really not a great way to operate is to put everyone before you. So getting back put everyone before you. So getting back put everyone before you. So getting back to the topic is to the topic is to the topic is if this is the first time that you are if this is the first time that you are if this is the first time that you are putting yourself first, you are doing putting yourself first, you are doing putting yourself first, you are doing some level of self-care, you are some level of self-care, you are some level of self-care, you are prioritizing yourself by starting your prioritizing yourself by starting your prioritizing yourself by starting your own health journey, your own health own health journey, your own health own health journey, your own health protocol, your own health program. There's a level of empowerment with There's a level of empowerment with There's a level of empowerment with that. There's a level of like I [  ] that. There's a level of like I [  ] that. There's a level of like I [  ] deserve this. Like that my time is now. deserve this. Like that my time is now. deserve this. Like that my time is now. And that is a higher vibration mindset. And that is a higher vibration mindset. And that is a higher vibration mindset. That is a more empowered mindset. It is That is a more empowered mindset. It is That is a more empowered mindset. It is a more enlightened mindset because you a more enlightened mindset because you a more enlightened mindset because you are serving yourself knowing that if you are serving yourself knowing that if you are serving yourself knowing that if you serve yourself and become the best serve yourself and become the best serve yourself and become the best version of yourself, become the version of yourself, become the version of yourself, become the healthiest version of yourself, you can healthiest version of yourself, you can healthiest version of yourself, you can better serve everyone else. better serve everyone else. better serve everyone else. But everybody getting the glass half But everybody getting the glass half But everybody getting the glass half empty version of you is actually not empty version of you is actually not empty version of you is actually not [  ] helping anyone. And I'm gonna [  ] helping anyone. And I'm gonna [  ] helping anyone. And I'm gonna say that again. If you're the best say that again. If you're the best say that again. If you're the best version of yourself, you are impacting version of yourself, you are impacting version of yourself, you are impacting everyone around you, including your kids everyone around you, including your kids everyone around you, including your kids and your spouse, more than you could and your spouse, more than you could and your spouse, more than you could ever [  ] imagine. If you're the ever [  ] imagine. If you're the ever [  ] imagine. If you're the burnt out, tired, exhausted, unhealthy burnt out, tired, exhausted, unhealthy burnt out, tired, exhausted, unhealthy person, you're not [  ] serving person, you're not [  ] serving person, you're not [  ] serving anybody. Let's be real. Like, if anybody anybody. Let's be real. Like, if anybody anybody. Let's be real. Like, if anybody told you differently, they're [  ] told you differently, they're [  ] told you differently, they're [  ] stupid. So, don't get me on a rant. stupid. So, don't get me on a rant. stupid. So, don't get me on a rant. So, So, So, if you are all pumped up that you are if you are all pumped up that you are if you are all pumped up that you are serving yourself, you're you're in an serving yourself, you're you're in an serving yourself, you're you're in an empowered state of mind. empowered state of mind. empowered state of mind. Maybe there's a little placebo with the Maybe there's a little placebo with the Maybe there's a little placebo with the healing process. I'll be the first one healing process. I'll be the first one healing process. I'll be the first one to say it. Who the [  ] cares if you get to say it. Who the [  ] cares if you get to say it. Who the [  ] cares if you get better, if it's placebo or not? You're better, if it's placebo or not? You're better, if it's placebo or not? You're getting better. But there might be a getting better. But there might be a getting better. But there might be a level of placebo because you are putting level of placebo because you are putting level of placebo because you are putting yourself at the forefront of your life yourself at the forefront of your life yourself at the forefront of your life for maybe one of the first times in your for maybe one of the first times in your for maybe one of the first times in your life. It's one of the first times that life. It's one of the first times that life. It's one of the first times that you said, "I'm [  ] important and I'm you said, "I'm [  ] important and I'm you said, "I'm [  ] important and I'm going to take care of myself." going to take care of myself." going to take care of myself." And then And then And then weeks go by weeks go by weeks go by and you're like, and you're like, and you're like, "Is this real life?" You know, can I "Is this real life?" You know, can I "Is this real life?" You know, can I keep spending this money? Can I keep keep spending this money? Can I keep keep spending this money? Can I keep doing this? Do I do I realistically have doing this? Do I do I realistically have doing this? Do I do I realistically have the time? There's just so much going on. the time? There's just so much going on. the time? There's just so much going on. You know, I I guess I'm you know, I You know, I I guess I'm you know, I You know, I I guess I'm you know, I don't think I can sustain this. I can't don't think I can sustain this. I can't don't think I can sustain this. I can't do this forever. This isn't real life. I do this forever. This isn't real life. I do this forever. This isn't real life. I I'm I have to get back to normal. Think about that. Think about that Think about that. Think about that Think about that.
