Dr. Conaway’s presents a unique perspective on what it takes to be healthy in a world filled with the conventional medical and Big Pharma philosophies. She and her guests share an all-natural approach to health and wellness, not the sickness-care approach so prevalent in today’s healthcare industry. In her mind, "prevention" and "early detection" are not remotely the same thing and Dr. Conaway's approach is truly prevention. With her unrelenting mission to find the latest real-world information that supports her philosophy and her approach to body, mind, and spirit; she shares what she learns and helps listeners understand how to “get it right.”
