Most high-performers are great at giving. Very few of them know how to receive. In this episode, Josh Rimany is joined by Brent Perkins, founder of 3xBOLD and author of The Shift List, for a conversation about what it actually takes to show up whole: in business, at home, and within yourself. Brent unpacks the spectrum from self-poor giver to self-rich contributor, explains why people who are great at giving almost always struggle to receive, and makes the case that capacity, not strategy or systems, is the ultimate leadership currency. He and Josh also cover the alignment tax that misalignment charges on your energy, your relationships, and your teams, why silos in a leadership team mirror the same silos people run in their own lives, and how a 60-second time-out can save 30 hours of fallout from a single meeting gone sideways. This is a conversation about what it means to stop leaving pieces of your life on the table. Catch this on Beyond The Pills. Brent Perkins is the founder of 3xBOLD. He spent twenty-five years building businesses, including a decade in the CEO seat, while navigating the expectations he carried through most of his eighteen-year marriage. His work began with recognizing and interrupting patterns in his own life. He is the author of Papercuts: The Art of Self-Delusion, which explores the patterns that shape our lives, and The Shift List, a practical guide to putting that awareness into action through forty days of practicing how you want to show up.

What happens when the faith you built your entire identity around collapses in 30 minutes? In this episode, Josh Rimany is joined by Jacob Tahiliani, psychedelic coach and founder of Modern Mystics, to explore one of the most raw and honest conversations this show has hosted. Jacob spent years as a devout Mormon missionary before a single afternoon of honest questioning shattered 22 years of belief, split his identity, and sent him into years of depression and spiritual free-fall. Jacob shares how that collapse eventually led him to psilocybin, how one experience reconnected him to God in a way the church never could, and how he went on to build the Universal Surrender Method, a framework for helping people process emotion and experience letting go, without any substances involved. He and Josh also unpack the critical difference between religion and spirituality, why microdosing and harm reduction matter more than the medicine itself, and what it really means to rebuild your relationship with the divine on your own terms. This episode is for anyone who has ever wondered if you can lose the structure without losing the spirit; catch this on the Beyond The Pills podcast. Jacob Tahiliani is a certified psychedelic coach and founder of Modern Mystics, an online community focused on the safe and intentional use of psychedelics for healing, spirituality, and personal transformation. After losing his Mormon faith and navigating years of depression and religious trauma, a single psilocybin experience reconnected him to God and set him on a path of study, mentorship, and coaching. He created the Universal Surrender Method, a non-psychedelic awareness framework for processing emotion and developing the observer mindset, as the foundation of his work with clients.

What if premature aging is not about time, but about the emotions you have been holding in your face? In this episode, Josh Rimany speaks with Cathy Goldstein, licensed acupuncturist, founder of Tru Energy® Skincare, and author of Keep Shining. A Crohn's diagnosis at 26 redirected Cathy from pre-med into acupuncture school, leading to decades of treating chronic and autoimmune patients through energy medicine. Then a mirror moment at 49 changed everything. Cathy explains why the muscles of the face are built for emotion and expression, not structural support, and why when emotions get chronically held, the fascia tightens around them and stays. What looks like aging is often emotional stagnation made visible. No surface product can reach that. Real change means working with the body's energetic pathways through the fascia, lymphatic system, and biophoton field, and giving the body the integration time it needs to actually hold a treatment. This is a conversation about what nature already knows and what the face has been trying to tell us all along, tune in to Beyond The Pills. Cathy Goldstein is the beauty disruptor rewriting the rules of aging. An acupuncture physician, energy medicine pioneer, and CEO of Tru Energy® Skincare, Cathy is also the founder of Functional Esthetics™—a groundbreaking approach that unites energy medicine, facial expression science, and bio-adaptive skincare. Her work helps people restore vitality, resilience, and authentic beauty by aligning with nature rather than fighting against it. For decades, the beauty industry has pushed one message: fight age, erase wrinkles, freeze expression. Cathy is dismantling that narrative with a radical alternative. Her philosophy: aging well isn’t about erasing time — it’s about keeping your energy, your expression, and your confidence fully alive. Cathy’s work has been featured on USA Today, CNBC, FOX Business, Bloomberg TV, Newsmax, and in Vogue International, Philadelphia Magazine, and New Visions Magazine. She also appears in the acclaimed documentaries HEAVY and SHEaled (part of the BioHacking series). Her voice is becoming a leading force in challenging the “anti-aging” mindset and replacing it with a new cultural movement: energy-optimized, fully expressed living.

Debora Wayne has spent over three decades answering that question for tens of thousands of people in more than 160 countries. And her answer begins not with the body, but with what surrounds it.

Most people come out of a cancer diagnosis with a revised bucket list. Mary Dee came out of hers with a hundred-foot zip line in her front yard. In this episode, Josh Rimany is with Mary Dee, breast cancer survivor, two-decade business advisor, founder of the Joy Catalyst, and host of the Mad Love Your Life show, for an honest and human conversation about healing, decision-making, and what joy actually does to the body when you choose it on purpose. Mary explains how she gathered evidence from Eastern and Western medicine simultaneously, how removing root canals on the meridian line connected to her breast reduced her tumor to less than half its size before surgery, and how a 50-50 statistical prognosis became the moment she decided to do it her way. Ten clean years later, she is here to tell that story, and to share what she unlearned about urgency, productivity, and the quiet lie that work deserves more of you than your own body does. Catch this episode of Beyond The Pills for a conversation about what it actually means to choose your life. Mary Dee is a breast cancer survivor, two-decade business advisor, founder of the Joy Catalyst, and host of the Mad Love Your Life show. After building and losing a multi-million-dollar business while simultaneously navigating a breast cancer diagnosis at 40, she rebuilt everything around one principle: joy is not a reward for surviving. It is the medicine. She works with CEOs, entrepreneurs, and impact-driven leaders to help them design lives and businesses that do not cost them their health, their presence, or their peace.

Nature figured out the healing code a long time ago. Most of us just stopped listening. In this episode, Josh Rimany sits down with Jenn Payeur, founder of Nature Provides, author of Ancient Plant Wisdom, and filmmaker behind a documentary that has won 18 international film festival awards, to explore the most overlooked cellular medicine in the plant kingdom: plant stem cells. Jenn explains what plant stem cells are, why they are found only in the new growth of spring buds, and why they do three things no other plant remedy does the same way: drain and clear toxic terrain, repair what has broken down at the cellular level, and bring the body's signaling system back into coherence. She and Josh also dig into the ancient history of gemmotherapy dating back to Hildegard of Bingen, the light medicine that Dr. Canillo discovered inside the tincture itself, and which commonly prescribed medications Jenn has seen become unnecessary through aligned natural support, including PPIs, statins, SSRIs, and beta blockers. None of this is medical advice. All of it is worth knowing. If you are tired, inflamed, medicated, or skeptical, this is the conversation to start with. This is Beyond The Pills. Jenn Payeur is the founder of Nature Provides, author of Ancient Plant Wisdom, and filmmaker behind the Nature Provides documentary series, which has won 18 international film festival awards. After a 29-year executive career in financial services and a life-threatening health crisis, she became the steward of plant stem cell medicine, a form of gemmotherapy rooted in ancient European naturopathic tradition. She left her corporate career in 2017 to become a teacher and mentor, traveling around the world to educate others on the inherent healing properties found in nature. In 2019, she started Nature Provides, whose mission is to transform health and well-being through organic plant-based herbs and essential oils and get these remedies into the hands of the people and practitioners who need them most.

Every ancient healing tradition on the planet has one thing in common. You are doing it right now. You have been doing it since the moment you were born. In this episode, Josh Rimany sits down with Adrienne Rivera, founder of Breath of Gold, TEDx speaker, and Amazon best-selling author, to go far beyond the mechanics of breathing into the doorway it opens: clarity, emotional release, trauma processing, creative insight, and the kind of nervous system reset that clients describe as equivalent to nine years of therapy in a single session. Adrienne shares her own origin story, her three-part Breath of Gold model, and what breathwork has revealed about relationship patterns and emotional triggers. She explains how it unlocks creative thinking for entrepreneurs and business owners, the critical harm reduction piece that too many breathwork facilitators skip entirely, and why the right practice for someone depends entirely on their nervous system, their history, and where they are in life. Ancient wisdom, nervous system science, and the one tool that has been with you since birth. Know more in the full episode of Beyond The Pills.

In this episode, Josh Rimany speaks with Jon Armstrong, CEO and founder of Get Healthy Store, to introduce something that has been missing from the health and wellness space: a curated, practitioner-led marketplace where quality is pre-vetted, the relationship stays intact, and your healer never loses the thread. Jon shares his own origin story, breaks down why affiliate models quietly transfer your customers to other companies, why Amazon has admitted that a significant portion of its supplement listings are counterfeit, and why the three buyer values in the health and wellness industry—quality, trust, and convenience—can only be delivered when the practitioner owns the relationship. Listen to Beyond The Pills for a conversation about what health and wellness looks like when it is built around the patient, the community, and a practitioner who never gets cut out of the loop. Jon Armstrong is the CEO and founder of Get Healthy Store, a curated supplement and lifestyle wellness marketplace built specifically for practitioners and clinical influencers. With a background in software, e-commerce, and marketing analytics, he was an early Amazon partner before becoming a patient himself, navigating thyroid cancer, leaky gut, and gluten intolerance. He built the platform he needed when he could not find it. Get Healthy Store carries 400-plus contracted brands, 10,000-plus vetted products, and is built around one principle: the practitioner owns the relationship and the data.

You track your sleep. You take the supplements. You get eight hours. And you still wake up tired. In this episode, Josh Rimany shares the mic with Michael Laing, co-founder of Airway Health, to explore the one structural problem that no one at your last physical ever mentioned: your airway may be too small, and it has been quietly working against you your entire life. Michael breaks down why modern soft diets are shrinking our jaw bones over generations, why that narrowing airway causes micro-arousals that fragment REM sleep without ever waking you up, and why CPAP is a band-aid rather than a solution. He explains how palatal expansion, myofunctional therapy, and airway-focused orthodontics actually fix the structure rather than manage the symptom, and what a 25% increase in airway volume feels like from the inside. He also walks through the T-spot, a simple tongue posture technique anyone can start using today for free. If you have been doing everything right and still do not feel right, watch this episode of Beyond The Pills. Michael Laing is the co-founder of Airway Health, a clinical practice in Austin, Texas, that addresses sleep apnea and breathing dysfunction at the structural root through palatal expansion, myofunctional therapy, and airway-focused orthodontic alignment. With a background in nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and corporate wellness, he brings a whole-person perspective to what most people are told is a lifelong machine-dependent condition.

A man can be strong, successful, and still disconnected from himself. In this solo episode of Beyond the Pills, Josh Rimany introduces the Lover Warrior framework as part of a deeper conversation about men's vitality, modern masculinity, open-hearted leadership, and whole-person alignment.

This is not about becoming less masculine. It is about becoming more whole. This conversation is for men who are successful on the outside, asking deeper questions on the inside, and looking for a more grounded way to lead with strength and love at the same time.

What if the missing prescription is not another pill, but coherence? In this solo episode of Beyond the Pills, Josh Rimany introduces the idea that some symptoms may be connected to incoherence: the body, mind, emotions, nervous system, and actions moving in different directions instead of working together. Josh explains how stress, anxiety, inflammation, decision fatigue, disconnection, and nervous system overwhelm can show up when the body is out of rhythm. He also shares how tools like breathwork, meditation, nature, stillness, heart rate variability, and HeartMath-style coherence practices can help people begin moving toward alignment. This episode is for anyone who feels tired, foggy, anxious, disconnected, or stuck and wants one practical way to reconnect with the body before reaching for another protocol.

What if testosterone is not the real problem, but only one signal in a much bigger vitality conversation? In this solo episode of Beyond the Pills, Josh Rimany introduces a new short-form solo format and explores what it means to go beyond testosterone. He breaks down why some men chase TRT, supplements, protocols, and lab numbers while still feeling exhausted, disconnected, unmotivated, and stuck. Josh explains why testosterone, sleep, nutrition, and strength training matter, but may work more like amplifiers than the full answer. He also shares how stress, constant achievement mode, disconnection, and lack of alignment can drain the nervous system and keep men from feeling truly vital.

Low testosterone is not just a lab number. It can affect energy, mood, motivation, libido, sleep, metabolic health, and the way a man feels in his own life. In this episode of Beyond the Pills, Josh Rimany sits down with Dr. Zak Zafrani for a grounded conversation about men's health, testosterone deficiency, restoration, TRT, lifestyle medicine, and the connection between hormones and metabolic health. Dr. Zafrani explains why some men are dismissed or treated for other issues before anyone checks their hormone markers, how sleep and stress shape testosterone production, what symptoms men should not ignore, and why lifestyle still matters even when using tools like TRT or GLP-1 medications. This conversation is for anyone who wants a deeper, whole-person look at men's vitality beyond quick fixes, bodybuilding myths, or symptom chasing.

A Problem We’ve Been Trained to Ignore Needle pain is often dismissed as “no big deal.” Something to push through. Something to “suck up.” But what if that belief is wrong? In this powerful episode of Beyond The Pills, Manju Dawkins, MD challenges one of the most overlooked issues in modern healthcare: “Over sixty percent of adults have needle fear… and yet we’ve been conditioned to believe it’s not a real problem.” This isn’t just about discomfort—it’s about fear, trust, and how the healthcare system conditions us to disconnect from our own experience. The Moment That Changed EverythingFor Dr. Dawkins, this wasn’t theoretical; it was deeply personal. As both a physician and a mother, everything shifted during a routine moment: “She looked straight up at me with this piercing look of like, ‘How could you let that happen to me?’” That single moment sparked a realization that would change the trajectory of her career: “What are we doing? This is insane… as a physician, my job was to do better—and I didn’t.” What followed wasn’t just innovation; it was a mission to restore humanity to medicine. What’s Really Happening in the BodyMost people think needle pain is minor. Temporary. Insignificant. But biologically, that’s not what’s happening at all. “It’s a stranger holding a sharp metal object and piercing you… our biology perceives it as a threat.” Your body doesn’t differentiate between a medical procedure and danger. It responds the same way—with a fight-or-flight reaction. And when that response is ignored or dismissed, it doesn’t just create fear… it erodes trust. The Real Issue: A System Without Time for CompassionThis episode uncovers a deeper truth about modern healthcare: It’s not that providers don’t care. It’s that the system doesn’t allow them to show it. “Healthcare has become more transactional… the system is not designed to offer empathy.” Shorter appointments. Higher pressure. Less connection. The result? Patients feel rushed. Providers feel burned out. And meaningful care gets lost in the process. Tangible Compassion: The Missing Link in HealingDr. Dawkins introduces a simple yet transformative idea: “Healing begins with tangible compassion.” This doesn’t require more time or complexity. Sometimes, it’s as simple as asking: “What can we do to make it better?” A pause. A breath. A moment of acknowledgment. These small shifts can completely change how a patient experiences care—and whether they come back at all. Reclaiming What Healthcare Was Meant to BeAt its core, this conversation is about something bigger than needles. It’s about redefining what care actually means. As Josh reflects: “Care means healing… to love, quite frankly.”Somewhere along the way, that meaning was lost. But conversations like this are bringing it back.
