Emotional trauma doesn't just live in your mind; it physically reshapes your biology, driving autoimmunity, fatigue, mysterious pain flares, and raising long-term disease risk.

In this episode with Dr. Aimie Apigian, author of the runaway bestseller The Biology of Trauma, we uncover exactly how unprocessed emotional experiences (including the hidden epidemic of neglect) create a chronic freeze state in the nervous system that results in inflammation, toxin accumulation, and self-attack diseases. She explains why so many high-achieving women feel exhausted despite "doing everything right," and how perfectionism, shame, and buried insecurity are often trauma responses showing up as physical symptoms.

We also talk about practical phases of nervous-system healing, starting with safety, so you don't retraumatize yourself trying to "fix" everything at once. This episode is for anyone tired of deciphering lab numbers while the real root stays invisible.

"If we're holding onto our trauma, it literally creates the conditions in which it invites different toxins that then make us sick." - Dr. Aimie Apigian

In This Episode:

- Why trauma is the missing conversation in medicine

- The body holds onto unresolved experiences

- Emotional trauma and why neglect is the most common form

- Defining neglect: why "too little for too long" is dangerous

- Physical symptoms of emotional trauma

- Three phases of safe trauma healing

- How to heal from unconscious body-held trauma

- Where to find The Biology of Trauma book

The medical system expects you to chase 33 different screening appointments across multiple specialists and check your organs one at a time. But there's a smarter way that scans your entire body in under an hour to catch cancer, aneurysms, fatty liver, and other serious health issues before they become life-threatening.

In today's episode, I sit down with Dr. Daniel Durand, Chief Medical Officer of Prenuvo, to talk about the real-world power (and limitations) of proactive whole-body MRI screening.

Dr. Durand walks us through how this advanced screening method detects over 500 conditions, many of which traditional screenings miss. We talk about the importance of early detection for cancers and neurodegenerative diseases, and how this proactive approach to health can save lives.

"It's better to see things early when you can intervene, and see them in a controlled context when you're healthy." ~ Dr. Daniel Durand

In This Episode:

- Introduction to Dr. Daniel Durand and his background

- Conventional vs whole body scans

- Conditions that whole-body MRI can detect

- Bringing scans to underserved populations

- Imaging for risk identification vs. diagnosis

- How often you should rescan and what to expect

- EMF exposure concerns and MRI safety parameters

- How consumer demand is driving change in medicine

Words from doctors can become the most powerful poison you ever swallow. One diagnosis spoken with certainty can lock your body into decline, unless you learn how to reject the curse and rewrite the story.

Today, my personal doctor, Dr. Michael Rankin Sr., returns to expose how medical labels turn into self-fulfilling prophecies, word curses that lower your cellular voltage and invite disease progression.

We talk about why saying "I have…" is so dangerous, how emotional trauma and childhood programming create the perfect soil for cancer and chronic illness, and the exact mindset & spiritual shifts that have helped people reverse "terminal" situations, long-standing pain, vaccine injuries, and even basketball-sized tumors.

If you've ever been given a scary diagnosis, told your child has ADHD/anxiety/autism, or watched someone give up hope after hearing they have "six months left," this episode is probably the most important thing you'll listen to this year.

" 97% of all people who take conventional (oncology) treatment will die." ~ Dr. Michael Rankin, Sr.

In This Episode:

- Why every diagnosis is a potential word curse

- Why saying "sorry" is like a curse

- Reversing diagnosis conflicts with love

- How diagnosis conflicts become self-talk patterns

- Healing childhood molestation trauma

- Bioresonance scans and remote healing explained

- The power of gratitude over hope and prayer

- Juicing protocols for enzyme absorption after chemo

- Protect children from harmful medications and ADD or ADHD labels

- Reevaluating mental health labels and using gratitude statements correctly

- Free resources & healing scriptures at testingcancer.com
