In this no-holds-barred episode of Integrative You Radio, Dr. Nicole breaks down the myth of modern medicine’s obsession with diagnosis. She challenges the mainstream approach of labeling symptoms for the sake of profit, rather than uncovering the root cause of illness. With over 30,000 new diagnostic codes recently added to the system, she questions whether this represents true progress—or just another layer of confusion and dependency designed to feed the pharmaceutical industry. Dr. Nicole urges listeners to ask deeper questions, understand the hierarchy of causes, and stop outsourcing their wellbeing to a system that thrives on chronic disease.
Drawing from her own motherhood journey, clinical expertise, and everyday examples, Dr. Nicole emphasizes the importance of embodied knowledge and self-trust. She encourages listeners to step into their power, learn how their bodies work, and know when to seek real, integrative support. This episode isn’t just a critique—it’s a call to action to become the CEO of your own health, build generational wisdom, and stop blindly accepting surface-level solutions.
