  • Dr. David Wiss: What If Your Anxiety Isn't All in Your Head?

    Dr. David Wiss: What If Your Anxiety Isn't All in Your Head?
    Jun 25 2026
    What happens when you've done everything you're supposed to do to improve your mental health—and you're still struggling? This week on Primary Purpose with Pej, Dr. David Wiss joins the show to challenge the way we think about anxiety, depression, addiction, brain fog, and emotional suffering. As a functional medicine clinician, registered dietitian nutritionist, researcher, and mental health expert, Dr. Wiss believes that many symptoms commonly treated as purely psychological may actually have underlying biological causes. From gut health and hormones to inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, genetics, and environmental toxins, he explains how the body and brain are deeply connected in ways that are often overlooked. Drawing from more than 14 years of clinical experience and over 30 published research papers, Dr. Wiss shares why so many people remain stuck despite seeking help and what can happen when we move beyond symptom management to uncover the root causes of suffering. This conversation offers a fresh perspective on healing, recovery, and the possibility that your body may have been trying to tell you something all along. #mentalhealth #anxiety #depression #healing #recovery #wellness #brainhealth #mindset #selfimprovement #personalgrowth Learn more about your ad choices.

    What if everything you thought you knew about addiction was incomplete? This week on Primary Purpose with Pej, Pej sits down with addiction medicine pioneer Dr. Peter Coleman, whose work has helped transform the way people approach recovery from alcohol and opioid dependence. With more than three decades of experience and thousands of lives impacted, Dr. Coleman shares the lessons he's learned from treating addiction, supporting families through recovery, and challenging long-held beliefs about what healing really looks like. Together, they explore the realities of the opioid epidemic, why so many people struggle to access effective treatment, the science behind addiction, and the importance of compassion in recovery. Dr. Coleman also reflects on founding one of the nation's first outpatient detox programs and building a treatment model that restored dignity, hope, and possibility to those seeking freedom from substance use disorders. This powerful conversation is a reminder that recovery is not only possible, it happens every day. #addictionrecovery #recoveryjourney #mentalhealth #Sobriety #recoveryispossible #healing #recoverycommunity #alcoholrecovery #mentalhealthawareness #hope #resilience Learn more about your ad choices.
