Health, Wealth and The Ultimate Self

By: Dr. Matt Rayner and Dr Brandon Nutt
  • Summary

  • Educational, motivational and conversational! Functional and Integrative healthcare providers diving deep into the latest in integrative healthcare and pushing listeners to build the best and most fulfilling version of themselves "their Ultimate Self". Special guests along the way to share their unique stories in health, business and self-development, their ups and downs and their pursuit of their vision and mission.


    This podcast was motivated by over a decade of patients telling and encouraging us to record our conversations and perspectives on various health subjects. For years we kept talking about needing to do it and finally after kicking the can down the road long enough we launched our podcast in January of 2023. Over the years, we would have conversations over the phone on our commute home. We would talk about the various things we would see in our office that day, discuss all the potential complexities of a case, the patient history that was missed from other providers. This would eventually lead to us ranting and going on and ultimately passionately discussing and advocating for a better path going forward for those patients. We would often end those calls saying that we should have recorded that! These conversations and our daily strive to help educate and empower our patients and community made this launch into a podcast not only make sense but ultimately inevitable.


    We pride ourselves on fighting for patients to get better care, better answers and empowering them to take control of their health and life. This podcast is an extension of this wider push for empowering more people through education and asking for nothing in return (well maybe a share and pass long to those who would benefit from listening).


    In the world of functional and integrative health there are varying shades or providers. The hope is our podcast will help listeners be better interviewers of providers out there and weed out the ones that like the sound of being an "integrative/Functional provider" but are still practicing an outdated, protocol driven and non specific model of healthcare. The world of chronic disease is growing by the minute and more and more are being impacted by chronic conditions and need providers who are willing to listen, dig deep, be humble and be willing to put the patient first above all else to figure out why the individual is where they are.


    We found our way into the functional health world first with functional neurology and becoming experts in brain and neurological health. Quickly into this journey you realize the brain can not thrive without proper metabolic and cell health, Immune and cardiac function and optimal biochemistry...ultimately leading us to layer both functional and integrative medicine and functional neurology into our clinical approach. If you are going to retrain and rehab the brain you better home you can fuel it and feed it to see the best outcomes for neuroplasticity.


    Our episodes are going to span across any and every top we can imagine. From mitochondrial health, anti-aging, functional medicine, functional neurology, concussion care and post concussion syndrome to mast cell activation, auto immune disease, weight gain and metabolic disease to name a few. Over the years we have been blessed to meet and work with incredible individuals and we will invite them on to share their perspective....From former pro athlete to business owner to author to renowned educator in the field, we plan to touch on it all.


    We hope you enjoy our shows and discussions on functional and integrative health and we hope it can help serve you in becoming your best and strongest version of yourself. Please join in our mission to help educate and empower and ultimately force a new standard in healthcare that is about patient-centered care targeting the cause and not the symptom(s). Please share far and wide and join our mission!

  • Writing Your own Success Story in Health and Business: Lessons from a Serial Entrepreneur and Mindset Expert
    Oct 3 2024

    In our latest episode, we dive in with serial entrepreneur, author, mindset expert, and biohacking enthusiast, Rob Coats. Rob has a contagious energy that easily uplifts those around him.

    I first met Rob back in July during a trip to Fort Lauderdale for a health conference. I was immediately drawn to his positive energy and mindset. The more we talked, the more I realized we shared many similar passions, which eventually led us down the path of discussing biohacking and peptides.

    In this episode, Rob shares his journey—from growing up in a home where he had to share a bedroom with his siblings to becoming self-made and purchasing a 20,000-square-foot home. What makes his story even more inspiring is that this was his very first home.

    As we started our conversation, I learned that Rob is also the best-selling author of the book Connect and Grow Rich, which he published in 2006. Eighteen years later, his book is still available on Amazon and in Barnes & Noble stores if you're interested in grabbing a copy.

    Rob is humble yet confident, and more importantly, he listens to those he meets. The more I talked with him, the more I saw how deeply passionate he is. He’s someone who not only learns from his mistakes but keeps his head up and stays focused on his "why." Rob shares how he's lost and made eight figures three times and continues to focus on his purpose, celebrating the small victories that lead to big goals.

    Rob and I also discuss his latest passion and project in the health world, where he's on a mission to help as many people as possible optimize their health through peptide therapy and implementing a foundational lifestyle. Earlier this year, Rob realized his health had become a blind spot and was faced with the reality that he needed to take ownership and make necessary changes. After all, "Health is Wealth!" Rob didn’t just make a few changes; he went all in, digging deep into the causes behind his lab results and leaving no stone unturned when developing a plan for positive change. Now down over 40 pounds, if you follow Rob on social media, you'll see that he practices what he preaches—both in health and mindset.

    Our discussion could have gone on for hours, as Rob's passion is worn on his sleeve, and he constantly shares valuable insights on mindset and connection. Before we wrap up these show notes, I want to leave you with a few gems and takeaways from our conversation and encourage you to listen to the full episode for more.

    Rob T. Coats' 2 Ways to Get What You Want:

    1. First, you must add value to the relationships you build.
    2. Find your connection’s passion and help them fulfill it.

    3 Essentials to Success and Happiness:

    1. Love yourself unconditionally first!
    2. Master your health.
    3. Enjoy all the steps in the process, not just the outcome.

    Daily Focus:

    1. Be mindful of how you phrase your sentences—your subconscious is always listening. For example: "I get to go to the gym today" vs. "I have to go to the gym today."
    2. Know your "why" and build your day, week, and life around it. Live in alignment with this.
    3. What are you doing for personal development each day?

    Positive Mindset Mentors/Resources Rob Has Used Along the Way:

    1. Jim Rohn
    2. Eric Thomas
    3. Wayne Dyer
    4. Stephen R. Covey
    5. Tony Robbins
    6. Les Brown

    I hope you enjoy and absorb the energy that Rob T. Coats brings to this podcast, and that you find ways to adjust and improve your health and mindset. It's safe to say we will likely have future episodes with Rob, as we had to force ourselves to conclude a conversation that could have gone on for hours.

    Until next time,

  • QEEG Testing and Neuro Feedback and Its Role in Health and Brain Optimization: Featuring Sandra Hooper-Murcott
    Jul 30 2024

    In this episode, we host and interview Sandra Hooper-Murcott, founder of BraintrainDFW and an educator with more than 20 years of experience. We dive into the Braintrain process, from the initial brain mapping using QEEG to the implementation of Neurofeedback sessions.

    We discuss the wealth of data that a QEEG can reveal. Before partnering with Sandra and Braintrain centers, I was researching QEEG software and equipment due to the valuable, non-invasive information it provides. QEEG offers baseline data on brain activity across various regions and the software compares this to normative data for each age and brain region.

    We explore how they use QEEG data to formulate a game plan and implement Neurofeedback tailored to the patient's specific brain needs. They see significant improvements in symptoms related to anxiety, ADHD, and insomnia with their approach.

    Naturally, we had to learn what inspired Sandra to open Braintrain centers. We delve into her process of founding and opening her first center and how this has expanded into multiple centers across the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.

    We hope you find our discussion on brain health, the value of QEEG testing, and the benefits of Neurofeedback therapy insightful.

  • Featuring Dr. Courtney Gowin, DC. Pediatric and Maternal Health Expert, Entrepreneur & Author
    Jun 25 2024

    In this episode we had the pleasure of interviewing and hosting Dr. Courtney Gowin, a pediatric chiropractor and maternal health expert as well as a serial entrepreneur and soon to be author. We have known Dr. Gowin for years and when ever we had a pediatric case that needed her expertise she was always our referral of choice for our patients.


    In our episode we discuss the her journey into specializing into pediatric and maternal health. We touch on the areas that is lacking for pediatric and maternal health and how she is trying to improve the community approach to maternal health.

    We discuss her entrepreneurship and how this area continues to expand and how she started dreaming beyond just having a pediatric and maternal health practice.

    Dr Gowin a couple years ago started a travel related business where she helps other host and provide retreats to their respective communities as a way to help people heal, optimize their health and get in touch with their purpose. We touch on Wanderlearn retreats and how this has continued to grow and morph into something truly special. We discuss our partnership in our upcoming retreat to Maui in February of 2025.


    We hope you enjoy our episode with Dr. Gowin and her uplifting and energetic and creative spirit.
