Send us a text Heavy periods, PCOS, endometriosis, infertility—so many women are told to mask symptoms or remove organs without ever getting a clear why. We invited Dr. Vaughn, a traditional naturopath, to unpack a different path: find the root, relieve the burden, and let the body restore rhythm. From teen cycles and the birth control reflex to menopause and progesterone support, we connect the dots between food, light, toxins, and liver health in a way that’s practical and hopeful. We get ...
Send us a text Most of us were taught to fear fevers and throw reducers at every spike. We take a different path: what if a fast fever is a sign of strength, and your job is to help the body finish what it started? With Dr. Vaughn, a traditional naturopath and iridologist, we break down how the immune system works from a design perspective and why gut health often decides who breezes through a bug and who crashes for a week. We dig into the practicals. You’ll learn a simple three-step approa...
Send us a text Sneezing, itching, and watery eyes can feel like your body is betraying you. What if those symptoms are your built-in cleanup crew asking for less blockage and more flow? We dive into a practical, hope-filled approach to allergies that starts with one shift: stop muting the signal and start clearing the filters. We break down the crucial differences between seasonal and food allergies and show how to match the fix to the cause. For environmental triggers like pollen, pet dande...
Send us a text What if your symptoms aren’t mistakes, but messages? We sit down with Dr. Vaughn, a traditional naturopath and iridologist, to explore a faith-forward approach to health that treats the body as a temple and creation as a toolkit designed for healing. Instead of reaching first for suppression, we look at how sunlight, minerals, whole foods, and targeted herbs help the body do what it’s made to do—cleanse, repair, and restore. We unpack the crucial difference between forcing act...
Send us a text What if the path to real healing starts with awe—at how you were designed—and the courage to ask why your body is speaking up? We sit down with Dr. Vaughn Lawrence, a traditional naturopath and iridologist, for a candid, faith-forward journey from corporate success and spiritual emptiness to founding Spirit of Health, a clinic built on education, empowerment, and the conviction that God still heals. Vaughn opens up about his redemption story, then moves straight into the heart...
Send us a text What if the modern medical system didn’t just evolve—it was engineered? We follow the money from oil refineries to lecture halls to see how Rockefeller-era funding, petrochemicals, and media campaigns reshaped Western medicine into a streamlined business. Along the way, we connect the serpent-and-staff imagery to a larger theme: commerce entwined with care, profits guiding the path from medical school curricula to the ads filling our screens. We unpack the Flexner Report and h...
Send us a text What if the most familiar symbols in healthcare point to a story far older—and more spiritual—than we realize? We open the vault on pharmakeia, tracing a line from Greek temples and serpent emblems to today’s medical branding, and ask what those roots mean for followers of Jesus navigating modern care. This isn’t a takedown of doctors or a denial of emergency medicine. It’s an invitation to discernment: learn the history, weigh the language, and test the spirits behind the prac...
Send us a text What if a single word could change how you think about medicine, choice, and the body? We take a hard look at pharmacia—the term translated as sorcery in Scripture—and follow its trail into our modern world of pharmacies, prescriptions, and promises of consequence-free living. Without offering medical advice, we unpack research, history, and our own experiences to ask better questions about intent, impact, and the line between healing and control. We explore where pharmakia ap...
Send us a text What if the “healthy” choices we’ve been sold are quietly making us sick? We pull back the curtain on the food deception—how modern diets drifted from God’s design and why so many of us feel inflamed, foggy, and dependent on quick fixes. With a clear, Scripture-rooted lens, we define real food as God made it, unpack the meat debate without the culture-war noise, and examine how our plates changed over the past 200, 100, and 50 years as factories, seed oils, sugar, and convenien...
Send us a text The headlines are noisy, but your body’s alarms are wiser. We dive into the growing debate around Tylenol, pregnancy, and autism—not to fan fear, but to restore discernment. I share why I stopped treating headaches like random lightning strikes, how acetaminophen actually works in the brain and liver, and what multiple studies suggest about prenatal exposure and neurodevelopmental risk. From there, we zoom out to the bigger toxic puzzle—ultra-processed foods, synthetic fragranc...
Send us a text The headlines say we’ve never had more “health care,” yet our families feel more exhausted, inflamed, and overwhelmed than ever. We open a new series that re-examines wellness through God’s design—moving beyond symptom management to honest, practical steps that restore energy, clarity, and resilience. Rebecca shares a personal postpartum wake-up: an active Epstein-Barr diagnosis that forced a reckoning with survival-mode habits. By shifting to simple whole foods, removing sugar...
Send us a text Could everything we've been taught about dinosaurs be wrong? As a self-proclaimed dinosaur skeptic, I'm challenging the narrative that's been drilled into us since childhood. It's fascinating to discover that the word "dinosaur" didn't even exist until 1841. Before that, cultures worldwide spoke of dragons in their historical records, artwork, and legends. The timing of dinosaur "discoveries" suspiciously aligned with the spread of Darwin's evolutionary theory—both needing deep...
Send us a text Where did everything come from? It's perhaps humanity's most profound question, and the answer shapes our entire worldview. While mainstream education presents the Big Bang and evolution as settled science, this episode challenges these narratives by examining their logical and scientific shortcomings. We journey through the historical shift in American education – from a time when biblical creation was taught in classrooms to today's environment where questioning evolution br...
Send us a text Have you ever wondered about what the Bible really says regarding the Antichrist and end times? In this thought-provoking episode of Coffee Talk, we unpack these challenging but crucial biblical teachings without sensationalism or fear-mongering. The Antichrist isn't merely someone who opposes Christ – Scripture reveals him as a counterfeit who will present himself as God. Drawing from 2 Thessalonians 2 and 1 John 2, we explore how this "man of lawlessness" will deceive nation...
Send us a text Have you ever tried explaining the Trinity to someone and found yourself stumbling over words? You're not alone. The concept of God existing as one being in three persons stands as Christianity's most profound and beautiful mystery. Drawing from Scripture's rich testimony, we explore how the Bible reveals God as both one and three—a truth woven throughout both testaments. From Deuteronomy's declaration that "the Lord is one" to Jesus' baptism where all three persons appear sim...
Send us a text Where did God come from? It's that profound question that stops many Christians in their tracks, especially when faced with skeptical friends or curious seekers. The answer unlocks a dimension of faith that transforms how we understand everything about our Creator and ourselves. The eternal nature of God isn't merely a theological abstraction—it's the bedrock of Christian understanding revealed throughout scripture. From Psalm 90's declaration of God existing "from everlasting...
Send us a text Have you ever felt the weight of trying to do it all? That's exactly where I found myself recently—juggling four kids under five, a demanding corporate job, and this podcast while navigating the postpartum journey after my fourth baby. The first couple months postpartum were actually smooth, but around month three, everything changed. I hit a wall. My body ached, fatigue overwhelmed me, and my nutrition spiraled into a cycle of fast food and processed junk. Despite clear nudge...
Send us a text Spiritual deception often comes wrapped in the most appealing packages. Today we pull back the curtain on one of the most pervasive spiritual counterfeits infiltrating our culture and even Christian spaces: the New Age movement. This spiritual smokescreen markets itself as light, love, and healing but actually leads people into darkness and occult practices. From yoga studios to children's cartoons, from wellness influencers to bestselling books, the New Age isn't always...
Send us a text What's your sign? It's a question that seems innocent enough, but behind the stylish aesthetics and personality quizzes lies a spiritual practice explicitly forbidden in Scripture. Astrology has seamlessly woven itself into mainstream culture and even Christian circles, disguised as harmless entertainment or self-discovery. But God's Word paints a dramatically different picture. The Bible doesn't mince words about divination. From Deuteronomy's clear prohibition to Isaiah's fi...
Send us a text What if the story of Noah goes far deeper than animals and a flood? This eye-opening episode reveals the disturbing reality of what actually precipitated God's judgment: fallen angels interbreeding with humans, creating hybrid Nephilim giants, and systematically corrupting every aspect of human civilization. Drawing from Genesis 6, the Book of Enoch, and other ancient texts, we explore how these "Watchers" didn't just fall—they infiltrated humanity with forbidden knowledge. Fi...
