In this episode, Shawna and LaLa kick things off by discussing the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene and the looming threat of Hurricane Milton. They dive into the lack of government support for those affected, particularly in North Carolina and Florida, and wonder why so many people are choosing not to evacuate despite the danger.

From there, LaLa opens up about her personal experience with Gio’s school mandating vaccinations, raising the question: What happened to parents' choice in their child’s healthcare? The conversation gets real emotional as they share their frustrations with the New York Government system.  They’re also joined by Chanda Hinton, founder of the Chanda Center For Health, to discuss how her facility provides critical services—like physical therapy and chiropractic care—for people with disabilities, all covered by insurance. Shawna and LaLa emphasize the importance of advocating for yourself, whether it's in the face of natural disasters or standing up to the healthcare system.
