#21: I Saved $5K and a Vacation with Virtual Urgent Care
Andy brings us another healthcare hack on today’s podcast: learning how to utilize virtual urgent care! When Andy’s daughter fell off a bed and hit her head hard, rather than rushing to the ER, they called a local urgent care and spoke with a daughter over the phone who helped them assess and care for their daughter’s injury over the phone, which saved them around $5000. He shares two other personal stories where he utilized virtual urgent care rather than in-person care and spending a lot more money than necessary. People don’t think of virtual urgent care being an option. By hearing this, I hope that folks start to consider using virtual care before in person care in the instance of a non-life threatening medical event. At the end of the podcast, Andy creates a medical event and contacts a virtual urgent care doctor in real time so we can get a glimpse of how simple utilizing these services are.

#16: Advice for Change Agents
This week we have Dr. Robert Malone. Dr. Malone is an American physician and biochemist who's early work focused on developing mRNA technology, pharmaceuticals, and drug repurposing research. He received his BS in biochemistry from the University of California, Davis in 1984, his MS in biology from the University of California, San Diego in 1988, and his MD from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in 1991. He attended Harvard Medical School for a year-long postdoctoral studies program. Due to the heat of the political climate surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic, in the last three years his work has shifted drastically from consulting to being an online presence to his community of devoted truth seekers in the world of medicine, science, analytics, bioethics, and politics. Dr. Malone's rise to recognition came when he became critical of the use of the Covid-19 mRNA vaccine as someone who one might believe wouldn't have anything negative to say about it's roll out. He was featured on Brett Weinstein's podcast and then on Joe Rogan to talk in depth about his stance on the pandemic in its entirety, which catapulted him to be a face of "misinformation" among the mainstream media outlets. On this episode, Dr. Malone shares insights into what's happening in our current political and scientific climate and how people who are on a mission to fight the injustice that continues to seemingly prevail can arm themselves with tools to find and create freedom.

#15: Myths and the Risks of Home Birth with Emily Stanwyck
This week we have Emily Stanwyck, a mom, a birth doula, and birth educator on to discuss the myths and the risks of home birth in America! Emily has been a birth doula since 2014 and helps women understand their rights in pregnancy, labor, and as a new parent. She gave birth to both of her children at home. She advocates for true informed consent in maternity care and argues that this does not really exist in the western medical model of obstetric care in America. We get into the financial aspects of birth and how greatly this effects access to excellent care for most Americans and how Crowd Health's model serves women who choose options outside of the traditional model of maternity care. Emily teaches live birth education classes throughout the year and a live doula training course twice a year; you can check those out here: https://www.emilystanwyck.com/work-with-me and learn more from her on her instagram page @emilystanwyck.
