   A Journey of Healing and Hope with Erin Tocci

   In this episode of Health with Sveta, Erin sits down to share her story of stage 4 cancer and recovery. From the moment something first felt wrong, through the hardest stretches of treatment, to the day she reached the other side. This is an honest, heartfelt conversation about what it means to keep going when the road ahead feels impossible. Erin opens up about the difficult moments, the decisions that shaped her path, and the people who stood beside her and carried her when she needed it most. But more than anything, this is a story about where hope lives — even on the days it's hardest to find. Whether you're facing a health challenge of your own, walking alongside someone you love, or simply in need of a reminder of just how much strength the human heart can hold, Erin's journey is a testament to gratitude, resilience, and the quiet beauty of life on the other side of an overwhelming diagnosis.

   The Foundation of Pet Health Part 2: with Dr. Katie Kangas

   In Part 1, host Dr. Sveta Selvamann and Dr. Katie Kangas explored the deep bond between pets and their people and the philosophy of treating the whole patient. Now, in Part 2, they get practical — because what if the key to your pet's longevity was already sitting in your kitchen? Dr. Kangas — holistic, integrative, and functional veterinarian, owner of Integrative Veterinary Care in San Diego, and creator of Dr. Katie's Remedies — draws on 33 years in practice to show how getting to the root cause of chronic conditions, rather than just managing symptoms, can transform an animal's health and lifespan. Together they unpack the foundations of true pet wellness: why ultra-processed pet food drives inflammation, how even a 10–20% fresh-food "topper" can dramatically improve your dog's health, and which functional foods — organ meats, tripe, bone broth, sardines, and eggs — deserve a place in the bowl. Dr. Kangas explains why nine out of ten dogs are deficient in omega-3s, why flax and hemp won't cut it, and how movement, grounding, and time in nature keep both pets and their people healthier. Whether you're a devoted pet parent or a busy single-income household, this conversation meets you where you are — with practical, budget-friendly steps toward feeding fresher, moving more, and raising a genuinely thriving companion.
