Dr. Joe Esposito speaks with Dr. Kristina Carman, an experienced natural healthcare professional in both the US and the UK, about the benefits of health coaching in general and in AlignLife clinics. The concept of adding additional services to a practice is often met with resistance, and yet, patients are choosing a more natural route to health just by seeing a chiropractor. Health coaches can support the doctor AND patient by being a source of knowledge and accountability, without diverting from the chiropractic philosophy.

She has extensive training in nutritional science, functional medicine, naturopathic medicine and detoxification techniques, iridology, bio-resonance therapy, and bioregulatory medicine from both the US and the UK.

Dr. Kristina Carman, naturopath & nutritionist, returns to the Align Your Practice podcast to talk about the benefits of incorporating labs in a chiropractic clinic. She and Dr. Joe explain how labs can be efficient tools for chiropractors who want to aid in their patients’ overall wellness. In this country’s “pill for every ill” mentality, people have lost control over their own health. Dr. Carman and Esposito examine what just one popular medication can do to your body and how that could be avoided by seeing a chiropractor that uses lab testing.

Many chiropractic students think once they graduate, the hard part is over. They’re licensed doctors now. What could stand in their way? In this episode, Dr. Joe Esposito talks with Dr. Taylor Hoskins about her experience overcoming the adversities of opening her own clinic. From lack of funding to bad hiring practices, hear how she persevered through determination and support from the AlignLife tribe. 
About the Guest:
Dr. Taylor Hoskins was only 15 years old when her battle with her health began. After being told by multiple doctors that she was "normal and healthy", she found chiropractic care at 17 years old when she accompanied her mom at one of her chiropractic appointments. Dr. Taylor saw the massive difference that chiropractic was making in the patients at that office, and she noticed patients were actually smiling and seemed hopeful when they left their appointments. Initiating regular chiropractic care allowed Dr. Taylor to regain her health and vitality, and it introduced her to the world of health care she had always wanted to experience, but wasn't sure if it even existed. A graduate within the Research Track at Life University, Dr. Taylor Hoskins has spent countless hours honing her craft, diving into the research behind chiropractic, and refining her communication skills so that more people can experience the life-enhancing effects of chiropractic care.
AlignLife of Woodstock was opened in 2021 by Dr. Taylor Hoskins and Co-Owner/COO Ryan Johnson and has had the honor of being a part of patient healing throughout the community. It is Dr. Taylor and her team's mission to eliminate the feeling of hopelessness and despair in healthcare, and instead, instill empowerment in patients... Healing is not only possible, it's actually normal! You can find AlignLife being actively involved in the community around Woodstock and Cherokee County in areas like local theater, local soccer clubs, and more!

Dr. Taylor Hoskins from AlignLife of Woodstock joins Dr. Joe Esposito once more to talk about her resistance to systems and how she came to embrace them. According to them both, they allow for better leadership, more time off, confidence, and clarity, among other things. Do you think systems are confining and controlling or a tool that creates freedom in your practice?
