What if the secret to patient transformation wasn’t more information – but more connection? In this inspiring episode of the Health and Wellness Marketing Show, Uli Iserloh chats with naturopathic doctor and community health pioneer Dr. Michelle Peris. As the founder of the Wild Collective, Michelle shares how group-based care and community medicine can radically improve outcomes, boost motivation, and help patients finally say “yes” to lasting transformation. If you’ve ever struggled with patient follow-through or are looking for a more scalable, fulfilling model of care–this conversation will show you what’s possible when healing happens in community. Listen To Learn:

  • Discover why patients often abandon health plans – not because of the plan itself, but due to a lack of support and connection.
  • Learn how group-based care can increase compliance, build motivation, and lead to deeper health outcomes.
  • Understand how Dr. Peris launched the Wild Collective with nothing but a rough idea–and how it evolved into a scalable, licensed global program.
  • Find out how group settings help people move past limiting beliefs and decision paralysis by seeing themselves reflected in others’ stories.
  • Explore hybrid models that allow practitioners to run group programs both in-person and virtually, expanding access without sacrificing depth.
Quotes:
  • “Flow is the opposite of burnout – it’s where clarity, creativity, and calm live.” (03:05 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
  • “We’re not failing as doctors – there are just gaps in how we’re delivering care.” (04:21 | Dr. Michelle Peris)
  • “Patients often come for the curriculum – but they stay for the community.” (10:05 | Dr. Peris)
  • “Group medicine normalizes the human experience. It says: if she can do it, maybe I can too.” (12:41 | Dr. Peris)
  • “Human connection isn’t a nice-to-have – it’s a must-have for health and longevity.” (24:20 | Dr. Peris)
