Episode 6 – The Power of Community and Connection for Health

The Aware Families Podcast wants to educate parents, grandparents and kids of all ages on how to stay healthy using the principles of Functional Medicine. Episodes are hosted by a pediatric physician (Tom Flass MD) and a family nurse practitioner (Brittany Coburn NP-C) who are trained in both conventional and functional medicine. As experienced healthcare providers and parents, they have navigated the challenges of the modern world with their own families and patients and share what they have learned along the way. A range of topics that impact our health are covered, including nutrition, sleep, stress and mental health, exercise and physical activity, toxic exposures, gut health, hormones and a lot more. This podcast strives to deliver real-world actionable health information to people looking to improve their lives and the lives of their families.
In this episode Brittany and Tom discuss the 5th Pillar of Health- how human connection, community and a sense of purpose have a major impact on the health of both adults and kids.ย
