What happens when the healthcare system not only fails you—but makes you worse? For Josh Yashari, co-founder of Cosmo Health, that question became the spark for a personal healing journey and a mission to reimagine wellness.
In this eye-opening episode of Optimize W(e), Josh shares his story of growing up on medications for epilepsy, A.D.D., and acne—only to face years of gut issues and frustration with a medical system that offered prescriptions over solutions. His turning point came when acupuncture and Chinese medicine helped him heal where conventional approaches fell short.
Josh explains how this experience fueled his passion for alternative care and ultimately inspired Cosmo Health: a company blending ancient wisdom with modern technology to create accessible at-home wellness tools. From the Luna Stone (a crystal Gua Sha device with red light therapy) to the Nova Cup (a smart cupping tool for fascia release), Josh reveals how Cosmo is bridging the gap between holistic therapies and science-backed innovation.
Along the way, he breaks down the importance of fascia, why stagnation in the body causes pain, and how proactive care can unlock mobility, vitality, and resilience. His story is equal parts personal healing, entrepreneurial grit, and a call for a wellness paradigm shift.
