In this first recording from isolation, host Emily Olsen interviews her friend, Dr. Jonathan Kalman about his understanding of the coronavirus and the many aspects of well-being.
In this episode, Dr. Kalman discusses resilience, mental health, and the need for contrast. Jon talks about the book he's working on, the importance of getting to know your neighbour, and how a friend pushed him toward 'finding his edge.' This was a fascinating conversation with a deep dive into medical processes and terminology, and the best therapy of all - Vitamin C (Connection).
Dr. Kalman is a licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor in the state of California and has dedicated his clinical practise to exclusively focus on regenerative medicine to provide his patients with a better quality of life. Dr. Kalman is a member of the American Academy of Pain Management (AAPM) and he received his medical training from Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in Tempe, AZ, where he served on the Board of Trustees as a student. Dr. Kalman has volunteered with the medical team at the annual Burning Man event for the last 13 years and is currently a Medical Duty Chief. He also works with medical teams at music festivals throughout California and is currently finishing his first book.
