#402 Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy: What Conventional Cancer Care Gets Wrong
Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy is a globally recognized leader in integrative and functional medicine. She is the founder of the Center for New Medicine and Center for Healing in Irvine, California—two of the largest and most advanced integrative medical clinics in the country. With over 39 years of experience, Dr. Connealy specializes in treating chronic illness and cancer by combining the best of conventional science with natural healing and patient-centered care.
Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy joins us for one of the most important health conversations we've had to date. With nearly four decades at the forefront of integrative cancer care, Dr. Connealy breaks down why chronic illness, cancer, and emotional dysfunction are exploding—and how to reverse the trend by taking radical responsibility for your health. She unpacks her holistic approach to healing—from foundational lifestyle habits like sleep, food, and detox to the spiritual and emotional work often ignored by mainstream medicine.
What we cover:
- Why self-care is the new healthcare
- The great poisoning: environmental toxins and chronic illness
- Foundational habits: sleep, clean food, movement, and hydration
- Preventative testing and how to truly screen for disease
- Why community is medicine and loneliness is a silent killer
