From Pills to Pillars: One Physician's Journey into Lifestyle as Medicine
This week on Vital Voices, we invite you into a deeply personal and profoundly hopeful conversation. Join host Alexis Burrows as he sits down with his wife, Dr. Paige Burrows— Physician turned certified lifestyle medicine educator, coach, entrepreneur & founder of WellSpring Lifestyle Group and strong advocate for whole person health—for an episode that goes beyond clinical insight and into the heart of healing.
After a harrowing battle with long COVID that left her grappling with chronic fatigue, neurological symptoms, and despair, Dr. Burrows found herself at a crossroads. Through prayer, fasting lifestyle medicine principles, and mindbody practices she uncovered a new path, one where lifestyle became the medicine.
Together, we explore her journey from the hospital bed to holistic healing, from confusion to clarity, and from a life reliant on pills to one anchored by pillars of whole-person wellness.
This episode is for anyone who has ever felt hopeless, isolated by or stuck in illness. Whether you’re a patient, a caregiver, or a healthcare professional, you’ll walk away with both insight and inspiration.
Topics include:
• The realities of living with long COVID
• Whole food plant predominant nutrition and fasting for healing
• The mind-body-spirit connection in chronic disease recovery
• How lifestyle medicine complements traditional care
• Advice for caregivers and medical professionals
Healing isn’t linear—but it is possible. Tune in and be reminded that with faith, intentional living, and a commitment to root-cause wellness, restoration is within reach.
