Episode Summary:
Chronic illness and the broken healthcare system @ 0:06
Melissa discusses how the modern healthcare system is failing to address the root causes of chronic illness, and is instead focused on symptom management and profit-driven pharmaceutical solutions. She highlights how the pharmaceutical industry prioritizes sales over health, and how the lack of oversight in generic drug manufacturing has led to dangerous quality issues.
Melissa explains that most doctors receive little to no Education on nutrition, environmental factors, and lifestyle impacts on health. Instead, medical training is heavily influenced by pharmaceutical funding, leading doctors to primarily prescribe drugs and procedures as quick fixes rather than addressing underlying causes.
Melissa cites Dr. Casey Means’ research showing that damage to the mitochondria, the powerhouses of our cells, is a key driver of chronic fatigue, disease, and other health issues. This mitochondrial damage is caused by factors like chemicals in our food, environmental toxins, chronic stress, and ultra-processed diets.
Melissa outlines a holistic approach to healing that addresses the whole body, including diet, exercise, stress management, toxin reduction, quality sleep, emotional balance, and targeted supplementation. She emphasizes the importance of functional medicine testing to identify imbalances and create a personalized roadmap for restoring health.
Melissa explains that true health requires addressing not just the physical body, but also the emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of well-being. This includes releasing stored emotions, replacing limiting beliefs, and aligning one’s work and purpose with their passions and values.
Melissa encourages listeners to educate themselves further by reading the books she referenced, and to take ownership of their health by making informed choices. She emphasizes the importance of sharing this information with others to help create a future where vibrant health is the norm.

Melissa’s passion project is her non-profit, Girls Matter (www.girlsmatter.ca), breaking the poverty cycle 1 girl, 1 family, 1 village at a time. The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn’t free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her on children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause.
