For women struggling with sudden onset depression, anxiety, or mood swings, this episode could be life-changing.

Danielle Stanton, a former school counselor with a master's in mental health, shares how her world turned upside down at age 39 when she began experiencing severe depression and anxiety. Despite multiple hospitalizations and numerous psychiatric medications, her condition only worsened.

The breakthrough came when a functional medicine doctor checked her hormone levels - something previous doctors had overlooked. Her progesterone and testosterone were at zero, indicating perimenopause was the root cause.

Through bioidentical hormone therapy, improved sleep habits, and targeted nutrition, she achieved complete recovery without psychiatric medications.

Dr. Roshani Sanghani returns to discuss her groundbreaking book "Turnaround Diabetes" and her innovative approach to diabetes management. Drawing from her experience practicing in both India and the US, she introduces the "Four Wheels of the Lifestyle Car" concept that's transforming how we think about diabetes care.

KEY POINTS

• The Four Wheels approach prioritizes interventions in order: nutrition, sleep, stress management, and exercise
• Motivational interviewing techniques help patients discover their own path to better health
• Sleep is critically important as the second "wheel" because it affects energy levels and decision-making ability
• Telemedicine can provide more comprehensive, high-touch care than traditional office visits

BIO

Dr. Roshani Sanghani is an endocrinologist who has practiced in both India and the United States. She is the first and only certified motivational interviewing trainer in India. Her unique perspective comes from experiencing healthcare systems in both countries and developing a holistic approach to diabetes management that goes beyond traditional medication-focused treatment.

KISMET

The foreword to Dr. Sanghani's book was written by Dr. William Miller, one of the co-founders of Motivational Interviewing. This connection bridges the gap between traditional diabetes treatment and psychological approaches to behavior change, representing a fascinating intersection of medical and behavioral sciences.

BIO

Chris Cornell is a certified Metabolic Health Practitioner and health coach who transformed his own health after age 50, losing 80 pounds through sustainable lifestyle changes. After overcoming cancer, he dedicated himself to helping others achieve their health goals through evidence-based coaching methods. He now serves as a health coach at Ovadia Heart Health.

KISMET

Cornell's transformative moment came from stepping on his mother's scale - a chance encounter that might never have happened if he hadn't visited that day. This random event led to reading Gary Taubes' book, which completely changed his understanding of weight loss and set him on his path to becoming a health coach.
