Latest / Giving Pain Purpose with Lyndsay Soprano / Bite Into Your Gut Health
Transcript
- 0:03This is Your Pain Game podcast where we talk about the game of living in
- 0:07and with chronic pain and trauma, getting to the heart of how to heal.
- 0:12I am your host, Lindsay Soprano. On the show, I plan
- 0:18on discussing with doctors, chronic pain patients, ballistic practitioners, loved ones,
- 0:23and anybody that is interested in having their voice heard in the chronic pain and
- 0:27trauma world that we live in. Well, hey, my favorite listeners on
- 0:39the planet, my little VIPs. I would like to start today with everybody
- 0:43just taking a deep breath and freaking smiling, because I want everyone to just
- 0:50smile, like bigheartedly right now, because just for even a second, even
- 0:55if you don't feel like doing it, just do it. You know.
- 0:58I, even in the middle of all of the bullshit that I go through
- 1:00with my body and all of that, I really try to still bring my
- 1:03smile and bring my sassiness and my depravity and all of my stuff with me.
- 1:10But you know, it's sometimes it's really hard for us to smile just
- 1:12show that window to our happiness because we all struggle with so many things in
- 1:18life, whether it's trauma or chronic pain, or family issues or death.
- 1:21In this and that. I mean, we all have so many things going
- 1:23on and we forget to breathe. Lindsay needs to breathe, and we forget
- 1:27to smile. And you know, I sometimes I feel like I'm crawling out
- 1:33of my skin because of my pain, and it is hard to smile.
- 1:36So I need to smile, damn it, right, And that is what
- 1:38I'm encouraging you guys to do. I have been blessed in my life with
- 1:42I would say if I could pat myself on the back with a pretty decent
- 1:46smile, and I've been told I have a contagious bit of a laugh,
- 1:49right, But when it comes to my teeth, I've been very very good
- 1:53with my healthcare with teeth, but over the past or my oral healthcare over
- 1:57the past two years or so, I'm really struggling with the sensitivity within my
- 2:02teeth that crpsism. Because as you guys know that I've listened so far,
- 2:06and if you haven't welcome, I'm a disaster and I love being a hot
- 2:10disaster sometimes. But I've learned that I have the nerves, the nerve endings
- 2:16of everything in my body is super sensitive and my teeth have jumped into that
- 2:23role, and it's a struggle, like breathing in and out. My teeth
- 2:27feel like I've got like ice cold like wind blowing on my teeth all the
- 2:30time. And it's hard to eat because of all of this. And as
- 2:34my listeners know, at this point, I talk about my disordered eating and
- 2:38how that came to be, and I know that now my teeth have come
- 2:44into a bit of my disordered eating because I'm afraid to eat certain things.
- 2:47I'm afraid to get hot cold whatever it hurts to two. There's all kinds
- 2:52of weird things that are going on, and so I've been hunting at I
- 2:55don't like going to the dentist, right, forget it. Who likes going
- 2:59to the dentis nobody? Everybody raise your hand if you like going to the
- 3:01dentist. No, no hands are going up, right. But I'm struggling
- 3:06with I know the fact that I need to take better care of my oral
- 3:09health because it affects so many other parts of our body. And I didn't
- 3:14actually really know that. I mean, I'm a smart chick, but I
- 3:15just didn't know. And I've been hunting down somebody to talk about this,
- 3:20and I've found her so out further ado, I'd like to introduce you to
- 3:24my guest today, Rocky Norris. Rocky, Yes, girl, Hi,
- 3:30thank you so much for having me. Oh my god, I love having
- 3:32you here. And I love your name like nobody's business. Yeah, nobody
- 3:39forgets it, that's for sure. I love that. Yeah. So let
- 3:44me introduce you to Rocky. She's a nutritional therapy practitioner, a registered dental
- 3:47higdenist for over fifteen years. She's also a licensed restart instructor and has really
- 3:53seen firsthand how our overall health is affected by what's going on in the gut
- 3:58and the mouth. And a lot of the episodes that I've been doing recently
- 4:01and have been releasing have been about the fact, really talking about gut health
- 4:06and nutrition because it's something that's so important to the chronic pain community that's also
- 4:11incredibly important to everybody. So we hear a lot about that got health these
- 4:16days and how it affects our well being and we don't all necessarily know the
- 4:20effects of it, and how the signs of our health issues around our body,
- 4:25shope and our mouth. So little miss Rocky road and roll about the
- 4:30red carpet for you. First of all, I applaud you for working with
- 4:32people's mouths, because too, it's not oo to me. It makes everybody's
- 4:38At the end, I don't know how you do it. Nobody has to
- 4:45do it, but I actually like it. It's pride and enjoyed for me.
- 4:49What's good. So how did you get into dentistry in the first place
- 4:51when we all basically hate you people? Well, I personally always love to
- 4:57get my teeth clean, so that, oh you are a weirdo. Yes,
- 5:00that I think that's where it started from. And I veered towards not
- 5:03the normal population. I went off by myself, by myself. Well you
- 5:09know, I always end up like rescheduling all of my dential appointments and ends
- 5:12up being like three four times. Then I finally make it in, Oh
- 5:15but you have a beautiful mouth, thank you. Done would not agree with
- 5:20that, I mean maybe cosmetically. So how did you get let's talk about
- 5:27your dentistry, and then how you got into gut health and oral health and
- 5:30holistic nutrition and the connection between those two or those three or all of those
- 5:34things above. So I got into dentistry because I was in the military and
- 5:40I was deployed to Iraq and on our free time, we could volunteer.
- 5:45So I volunteered and it was called Sea Mock and it was the medical and
- 5:48dental team that would help out the local nationals. And I started to assist
- 5:53a dentist there and I was like, ooh, I like this, I
- 5:57want to help people. So of course, when I was overseas, I
- 6:00was starting to look. And then once I got back to the States,
- 6:03that's when I rolled into school and got into dental hygiene and it was like
- 6:08perfect for me because it's so structured, you know, you have to have
- 6:11everything clean, but it's an art form too so and the creativity of cleaning
- 6:15somebody's mouth is an art form. But then down the line, about ten
- 6:20twelve years into it, I started to notice that people that actually did do
- 6:25the rushing and flossing, because I was seeing patients regularly, they would still
- 6:29have problems like you know, cavities, Harry Donald disease, gingivitis that just
- 6:33wouldn't go away even though they were doing all the things at home. So
- 6:38that's when I was like, something's missing, something's missing in the modern day,
- 6:42you know, dentist right, that were not correlating. So I started
- 6:46to do a lot of research, and even family members started coming up to
- 6:48me saying, I'm doing all this stuff, but you know, my implant
- 6:51has failed. That was somebody in their thirties, one of my family members.
- 6:57Yeah, and my mother. They were telling her to extract three teeth
- 7:01because it got so bad. But I know her home care was good.
- 7:05And I was like, there's a missing link. And that's when I started
- 7:09to veer out, Wait, what are we putting on our mouths other than
- 7:12brushing of flossing food? Food? Is the correlation between what's going on in
- 7:16the mouth and the gut in the whole body. We're not viewing the body
- 7:20as a whole. We are dissecting it. We're not running heads. You
- 7:26know, we don't run around with just our heads. We run around with
- 7:28this whole body. So and I think a lot of people forget that.
- 7:32So I feel like I run around with my head cut off all the time.
- 7:35So maybe I'm no. No, I do too. I cracked my
- 7:39body with me sometimes, but slow down. So that's really interesting because I
- 7:47also I'm like, I'm like anal retentive about it. Like I brushed my
- 7:50teeth and I do my flossing, and I've got my water pick and my
- 7:55suit is the same thing. We do all of that, but I'm like,
- 7:58I've got problems with my mouth. Like I don't have bad breath or
- 8:01anything like that. My teeth are pretty okay, but they hurt, and
- 8:05my gums are starting to hurt, like really bad. And I'm getting a
- 8:07receding gum on one side and so now the top I can feel the top
- 8:11of my tooth on one side of my mouth now, and I'm like,
- 8:15oh, it's going on because I've always taken really good care of my teeth.
- 8:18So when you've made this connection between what the heck is going on with
- 8:22these mouths because they're doing all of the right things that we say to do.
- 8:26Make sure you're doing your this and you're that, and you're all the
- 8:28So what's happening, then what the heck is happening Where we're doing good care,
- 8:33we're taking care of our teeth, but yet we're still coming up with
- 8:35all of these problems and health issues. It's because we're still dissecting it and
- 8:41only viewing it as a mouth because these are just exposed bone. Your teeth
- 8:46are just exposed bones. So if your teeth aren't healthy, in your mouth,
- 8:48then what is the rest of your bones look like? And what bones
- 8:52need? They need vitamins, they need minerals, and they need nutrition so
- 8:56that they can regenerate. And I don't believe in today's society with our food,
- 9:03our food actually regenerates our bones and our teeth. They're literally getting softer
- 9:07and they're getting meeker, and they're not thick, healthy teeth anymore. They're
- 9:13very brittle, especially people that age on. They're brittle. They fall apart,
- 9:18like you were saying, receiving gums. It's a big factor in sensitivity
- 9:22is skyrocketed. People grinding and clenching their teeth as skyrocketed because of twenty twenty.
- 9:28So there's different factors that we're not taking into consideration. We're just putting
- 9:33band aids on things instead of getting to the root cause. And so how
- 9:35do we get to the roots, Because I love the word root you a
- 9:41little sneaky devil, even conspiring with the Rocky Nors. So yeah, I
- 9:52mean getting to the root cause I know is different for every person. Yeah,
- 9:56because something that you mentioned, which is so ricken crazy to me,
- 10:01is that could each tooth be connected to different organs, I would like to
- 10:05talk to you about that because that is like almost creepy. We talked about
- 10:09it about like reflexology like on our feet and how we like press onth This
- 10:13is your liver and this is that, and the same thing like with our
- 10:15ears, like we can do ACU pressure there and all these things. Your
- 10:18teeth, I was mind blown. So can we talk about that because that's
- 10:22really interesting. So there's different roots that connect to your nerves, and those
- 10:26nerves are connected to the same sensors that are connected to other organs in your
- 10:31body. So you know, when a tooth fails or you get a cavity
- 10:35on it, or let's just say wisdom teeth. Let's go to wisdom teeth.
- 10:39Most people get them extracted, right, But those wisdom teeth are actually
- 10:41connected to your heart. Oh yeah, so that's why whoa yeah. Your
- 10:48front teeth are usually considered your kidneys, your bladder, and the sex organs,
- 10:54So those are your front teeth. In between, like the front teeth
- 10:58and the wisdom teeth are small intestines, large intestine, your gi track and
- 11:03that's where we see a lot of cavities forming ching service when we're chewing,
- 11:09and we see a lot of cavities is because there's nutritional imbalance that's happening in
- 11:13your gun. So of course your gi track is going to take the nutrition
- 11:18from the food you eat to put it in your system instead of leaving it
- 11:22with your teeth because there's an imbalance. Yeah, that's so weird. So
- 11:26where's your liver in your mouth? I think that's the second molar? Oh
- 11:31okay, all right, and she's doing okay, just checking in on the
- 11:37old liver. You know, that's so interesting because I mean, it makes
- 11:41sense. I mean, we're all everything is so connected, and we I
- 11:45like that you talk about we like dissect these certain parts of our body,
- 11:48and that is what our health care system has done. And we can only
- 11:52speak to a cure in America, which as we know, is such a
- 11:54lovely system. But that I'm gonna get me started. I'm so frushed in
- 12:00but like, okay, now you just have this issue with this one tooth
- 12:03or these two teeth or what have you. But it could actually have something
- 12:07to do with your intestine. That's insane to me. Yep, yep,
- 12:11And what does that have to do? I mean, I gut health.
- 12:13I know I've talked. There's a Gallot's coming. Actually, she was on
- 12:16my show a couple of weeks ago, and we talked about stomach acid,
- 12:20because she's specific about gut health that particular episode, and we talked about stomic
- 12:24acid and how it's almost counterintuitive where you think, like if I'm getting like
- 12:28acid reflects or GIRD or whatever, that I have too much stomach acid in
- 12:31my body, and it's quite the opposite. And so we're taking stuff to
- 12:35get rid of stomach acid and instead we're supposed to be raising our alkaline and
- 12:41our aid in our stomach. So we're being completely brought down the wrong road
- 12:45just in relation to that and gut health, and how does that affect our
- 12:48teeth in our oral health, Well, that brings down bone structure, honestly,
- 12:52to tell you, that's where and I honestly believe that's what happened to
- 12:56a family member of mine. Net fails our implant because she didn't have enough
- 13:01phone. But she was on inhibitors for I can't think of the word right
- 13:05now, but as ad reflex, she is GIRD and she's beating her over
- 13:09I don't know, ten or fifteen years now, and so it literally ate
- 13:11away at the implant yeah, you do, like the omnipresenel and the pep
- 13:16said and all those things. You're welcome. This is what I do for
- 13:20a living. No, I don't. I just talk about this shit all
- 13:24the time. No, but that's so interesting because it's so counterintuitive to what
- 13:28we've been told to do. Do this, do this, do this,
- 13:31and you'll be fine. Guess what, like fifty percent of those things were
- 13:35actually the wrong decision for oral healthcare. So what are you doing in relation
- 13:41to Oh? Oh, there was another thing I want to talk to you
- 13:43about, which was in relation to parasites and oral health problems, because I
- 13:50was diagnosed with this random parasite called age pylori in my gut and I don't
- 13:54don't google it, all right, just don't do it. I'm not going
- 13:58to answer any of your questions as to how or why so we end up
- 14:03getting these parasites, we end up getting these weird bacteria and our gut.
- 14:07How in the hell are these all happening? And are they coming from oral
- 14:11healthcare or are they causing oral health or is a little bit of both.
- 14:16I think it's a little bit of both. But any grinding or clenching that's
- 14:20a parasite. Whoa, yeah, yeah, we're told that it's actually stress.
- 14:24It's not. It's that the little suckers like to run around at night.
- 14:28That's how my whole body feels. Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, so
- 14:33um yeah, and it's it's really if we actually focused it more on the
- 14:37gut and cleared out the gut and made sure that we had a balance,
- 14:43then we would see a lot less trauma in our mouth, including our whole
- 14:48body. So yeah, so interesting, it is crazy. And because I
- 14:52know that like a lot you've you've talked about the dissecting, and we talk
- 14:56about the band aid part of medicine as a whole. Yeah, so I
- 15:01know that's not how you work, not doing band aids. So can we
- 15:03talk about what it is that you do to help your clients in relation to
- 15:09healthy mouth, healthy body, healthy gut. How do we get started with
- 15:13somebody like you and what are you doing to help us in this regard?
- 15:18Well, I'm like the first stop you want to see before you actually are
- 15:22going in to see, like a GI specialist. Nothing against you, I
- 15:26specialists, They're doing their job. But what I will do is dissect what
- 15:30is going on. So I will get to the nitty gritty, and that's
- 15:33what I really focus on and see what's actually going on systemically throughout your body
- 15:39instead of just saying, oh, you have to introvite us or you have
- 15:41gum disease, let's fix that. No, there's an underlying you have an
- 15:45autoimmune disorder. Let's figure out what's going on with that autoimmune disorder. Let's
- 15:50build a foundation from that and work our way up. And how do you
- 15:54go about doing that? What kind of are there tests involved? Or how
- 15:58do you go about doing that? It's let's say just me like like,
- 16:00hey, rocky girl, Um, I have all of these problems, as
- 16:03everybody on this Steve that listens too knows, So how do I how would
- 16:07you onboard somebody like me? It's like, Okay, I've got all this
- 16:10crazy sensitivity, I've got gut health, I've got disordered eating. Do you
- 16:15do you work with people with disordered eating? And relationship? Okay? Yes,
- 16:18it has it has it all. It's encompetition in it all. But
- 16:22what so everybody's bioindividual. That's the other thing that I think in America we
- 16:29kind of just put everybody in this pot and say, okay, one size
- 16:32fits all. Which is not the case because something you can digest or eat,
- 16:36I can't. So that's what I'm trying to dissect. I'm trying to
- 16:40make sure that we've covered all the bases and going from that, then the
- 16:45testing comes, if need be, then the supplementation right, because we can't
- 16:51Our food is great if we're eating the right foods for our body, but
- 16:55still the nutrients that we're getting from our food nowadays isn't nearly what it was
- 16:59even fifty years ago, so we have to have some type of supplementation to
- 17:03add in more vitamins and minerals. And then from there that's when we would
- 17:07structure something that can help you digest your food better and kind of let the
- 17:14funnel I call it funneling filter everything out because you don't want to keep toxins
- 17:18in your body because then I start building up and then those nice bugs that
- 17:22you have in your body are like, yes, I get more food,
- 17:25and then your body never gets the nutrients. You know. It's like a
- 17:27big bug party over here, it is, and they love it. They're
- 17:32like, yes, even more, you know, like that Disney Pixar movie
- 17:36like bugs or ants or whatever. I don't have any kids. I don't
- 17:37watching any of that stuff, but that's what I feel like is going on
- 17:41in my body. And like I've got this weird theme in my legs.
- 17:42I call it the worm we squirmys, and it feels like I have little
- 17:48worms running through the veins of my body. And there are times like over
- 17:51the past two weeks in particular, I've had some pretty decent like pain days.
- 17:55I can literally see the pain moving through my life. It is like
- 18:00creepy. My sweeten are like this is like like this is like alien,
- 18:07like what is happening everybody? And my dad is so funny because he always
- 18:11has told me, because you weren't born, you were hatched, And I'm
- 18:15like, wow, that actually may have come to fruition. I might actually
- 18:18be an alien. No, but I hear you so from me personally.
- 18:26I started these supplements that I use personally because I had postnasal drip my whole
- 18:33adult life. Never could get rid of it. I just thought it was
- 18:36the thing. I was from southern California and then I moved to Massachusetts.
- 18:40I just thought, oh, it's really damp here. It's just not as
- 18:42dry. Like I'm just gonna deal with it. My whole adult life.
- 18:47Once I started taking these supplements, I have not had any postnasal drip,
- 18:51no dripping. I don't know even know because you're from California too, so
- 18:53I don't even know if you know what postnasal drip is. I do,
- 18:56Okay, So it's literally dripping and then you start coughing and it's just horrible.
- 19:00I haven't had it for a year and a half. Well, it's
- 19:03mostly from cocaine us. So I'm glad that you. I'm glad you put
- 19:06that. Yeah, I'm definitely not doing that. That is not holistic,
- 19:11but it was in my early twenties. Come on, there's a lot of
- 19:18post nasal drip going on. But I had parasites, and there can be
- 19:25parasites all over your body, not just in your gut, in your nerving
- 19:30things, to you know, all your lymphatic system. So the holistic dentist
- 19:36that I worked for, she went to a chiropractor and they did some weird
- 19:41funking moves on her and then the next thing she knows she had a parasite
- 19:44coming out of rock Oh not up. Yes, and yep, I'm telling
- 19:49you it's They're everywhere, and we think we just we live in America,
- 19:53so we don't get it because you know, we're not a third world country.
- 19:56I was under that delusion too, but like, no, my my
- 20:00body was was literally living in parasites my whole adult life. Wow. Yeah,
- 20:07parasite out of her eye, out of her eye. It was dead,
- 20:11but it but it was it was there. Yeah, Like I have
- 20:14this view of like a maggot, like just fully, you know, she
- 20:18thought it was like an eyegunky and she like pull it out. Yeah,
- 20:22yes, Oh my god. Well if I didn't think I was gonna barf
- 20:26before, I'm totally gonna barfe. Now this is so incredibly interesting because I
- 20:32just can't even believe that. I mean, I'm not stupid. Like That's
- 20:34the thing that drives me nuts when I when I have conversations like this where
- 20:37I'm like, I have a smart, bright little lady, how do I
- 20:41not know these things? You just you just named so many things that I'm
- 20:45like, oh great, oh fa, oh wonderful, oh oh great,
- 20:48great great, But parasites at the nerve endings is what just really made my
- 20:52stomach Like what what does that even mean? How? Like? Am I
- 20:59literally just a walking parasite? I feel like I am a walking parasite right
- 21:02now. Thank you. I wasn't meaning that at all, trusting, but
- 21:10but there are so many toxins in our body that we're not even aware of,
- 21:15and that we come from our environment to the food we eat, to
- 21:18you know, what we're doing on a day to day basis. Like I
- 21:21said, I had it my whole adult life thinking it was normal, And
- 21:25like you, I was like, oh, I'm pretty smart, Like I
- 21:26know, I just every winter I'm gonna have poison as drift. I just
- 21:30knew it, like it just was a thing. And then I was like,
- 21:32oh my gosh, I haven't had it for a year and a half.
- 21:34And so what did you do? What? What? What helped with
- 21:37thought? So I started taking the supplements that I usually give my clients so
- 21:42or if they need them. I mean, based on every body. We
- 21:45like to talk about it here. Just like you mentioned, we're all very
- 21:48we're all different people. Yeah, bioindividual. I love that because it's true,
- 21:53Like, don't treat me like you treat this dude over here exactly exactly.
- 21:57No, No, in that the thing we put it in, that's
- 22:00a whole system. Now, Yes, you know, if you have these
- 22:04symptoms, that's what you have. Well, no, can we like reverse
- 22:08and go back a little bit like what is this person eating? What is
- 22:11this person taking? What are their environments? Like, what is their stress
- 22:15level? Like? Nobody talks about these things in the modern day well dentistry.
- 22:18So now working with a functional dentist, we talk about all of that.
- 22:23You know, I collaborate with these functional dentists and it's amazing what we
- 22:27discover just sitting down and just talking about the person as a whole instead of
- 22:32just their mouth. Yeah. Well, and I think that that's one of
- 22:34the things that we've talked about this at infant Am on the show and we
- 22:37will continue to do so, which when it is about the fact that we
- 22:41aren't treated as holistic beings. We're treated as a one diagnosis that's like,
- 22:47oh, well this is it. You're like, well, okay, I
- 22:48have CRPS. Let me tell you all the things that it's caused. It's
- 22:52caused disordered eating, and it's caused gut problems, it's caused vision problems,
- 22:57it's caused sleeping issue, it's caused it to cause it's cause it's cause so
- 23:02great. Well, nothing is going to just treat the RPS, I have
- 23:06to treat a couple of these different things. And I know for me,
- 23:11my number one issue is food and so I just didn't know that it was
- 23:15actually happening until it was like almost too late for me, Like, oh
- 23:18great, now I've got to like fix all of these things. So with
- 23:22your experience, and I'm putting it on the spot here, how long let's
- 23:26just say, for example, I've had some oral health issues for the past
- 23:29a couple of years. I've got some gut health problems that have come up.
- 23:32How long when we start really working on it with somebody like you in
- 23:36your experience, are you able to reverse some damage or at least help support
- 23:41some damage. Are we talking like, well, we'll see in two years
- 23:42and I hope this all shakes out, or what are we talking about as
- 23:45far as timeline, because I know we're all about, like, let's fix
- 23:48it now. I know that it is a marathon and not a sprint when
- 23:52it comes to my body, So I'm much more patient when it comes to
- 23:56that. But I know a lot of people aren't. Well, you said
- 23:59it wonderfully, as your body is amazing and if you give it the credit
- 24:03that it deserves. Because it has, you know, traveled with you this
- 24:07whole time. It will give it back tenfold. So with that being said,
- 24:11if you treat it kindly and slowly, like the body needs to regenerate
- 24:17itself and it sells, it will do wonders for you. Usually with my
- 24:22clients, we start to see change in the first two months program than I
- 24:26do is three months. But I've had actually people piggyback and do like a
- 24:30six month because they seem the progress. I mean, I had somebody that
- 24:33had heartburn for I don't know, like ten years and she literally doesn't have
- 24:40it anymore because she followed the protocol and understood her body and then from there
- 24:45and then she had psoriasis disappear. So it's just, yeah, it's very
- 24:51interesting what the body can do if you give it what it means. And
- 24:53everybody's different, so I can't say she did X, Y and Z,
- 24:56and that's why I work for you, So I'd have to sit down talk
- 25:00to you, discuss what your body likes, what it doesn't like, because
- 25:04you know your body much better than I do. But I'm there just a
- 25:07guide and say, oh, let's try this or you know what, let's
- 25:11move away from that and see what your body does react to. To get
- 25:15down to the nitty gritty, it's something that your cells, which is your
- 25:19mitochondriact, which is that's where you get energy. If you have so much
- 25:26mitochondriact, you're gonna have a lot more energy. It's going to help with
- 25:27your immune system, it's going to boost all your gi track, and you're
- 25:33just gonna flourish and you're gonna have all this energy. If you do not
- 25:34have a lot of mitochondriact, which is the cell in your body, then
- 25:38it can't regenerate itself. And I get like I said, I get to
- 25:41the ninty gritty, to the mitochondriact. I want that healthy mitochondriact to the
- 25:45cell level. I want to get to that baseline so that you can build
- 25:49and build and build so that you can do it for X amount of years.
- 25:53I just find this so amazing just as a whole doing the show and
- 25:57speaking with people like you. There's a wonderful healers and so smart and so
- 26:02interested in You're so laser focused on care, like for me and my business
- 26:07and what I do. I am so broad stroked and I have so many
- 26:10different verticals and I mean, I'm good at what I do for a living,
- 26:12but like when it comes to being laser focused on something specific to oral
- 26:18healthcare, that's just like so neat because especially when you know the trickle down
- 26:22effect. And I don't love that phrase, but that's what came out of
- 26:26my mouth. But the fact that you can make these little changes, like
- 26:30I've always said, you make a small changes to make huge results. Yeah.
- 26:34And if everybody looks at like, oh my god, I have to
- 26:37eat an elephant right now, you do not have to. You just have
- 26:41to reach out to some people where you are suffering with whatever pain you are,
- 26:45whatever ailment you are, whatever health condition you have, and be your
- 26:48own advocate. That is something that is huge for me is to make sure
- 26:52that we are and so with you. How do we find you, how
- 26:56do we get in touch with you, and how do we get started with
