Glow Smarter: Tackling Infammaging With Science & Skincare With Dr. Ebru Karpuzoglu

In this episode we are talking with Raphael McMaster about why it’s so important to be proactive about our children’s mental health—and how this early support helps them grow into caring, connected individuals.
Instead of waiting for problems to escalate, we can build habits and environments that strengthen emotional well-being from a young age. At the same time, we can help children develop a collective consciousness


Rafael McMaster is a creative director, artist, and youth mental health advocate who has dedicated his life to uplifting youth through a fresh approach to mindfulness and creativity. As the founder of Indivisible Arts, Rafael leads a transformative youth development nonprofit that equips young people with practical tools for emotional resilience and self-control. His unique blend of mindfulness, mentorship, and creativity has made a profound impact on youth across Los Angeles, particularly those facing adversity.
After a successful creative agency career (including 5 years as a Creative Executive at Creative Artists Agency), Rafael shifted his focus from the creative industry to community impact. What began as a volunteer effort at his daughter’s school evolved into a thriving nonprofit, a public gallery space, and an after-school program grounded in tools-based mental wellness and creative freedom. Alongside learning tools for mindfulness, youth get to explore a wide range of creative media, including everything from portraiture and sculpting to music production and 3-D design. McMaster's newest endeavour, the forthcoming book FundaMentalLife Tools (2025), offers a hands-on toolkit for emotional well-being rooted in the same practices that have empowered youth through Indivisible Arts' flagship curriculum, Creative Wisdom Tools. Whether he's coaching individuals to turn pain into power or guiding teens through transformative creative practices, Rafael brings depth, heart, and visionary thinking to conversations about healing, growth, and the future of mental health.

Youth Development and Leadership With Rafael McMaster

In this episode we are diving into the surprisingly fascinating world of cerumen, the scientific name for earwax. We'll explore its protective role, why some people produce more than others, and what happens when it builds up too much. Plus, we’ll introduce you to a safe, innovative technique that’s changing the way we manage earwax buildup—no risky poking required.
 
Sahil Diwan is the Co-Founder and CEO of SafKan Health, the company behind OtoSet® — the world’s first automated ear-cleaning headphones that can clean earwax buildup in 30 seconds.
 
He’s on a mission to solve one of the most overlooked yet widespread health issues: earwax buildup, which affects 35M+ Americans and can lead to conductive hearing loss, tinnitus, and chronic discomfort — among other issues.
 
A first-generation immigrant from India, Sahil’s journey began with a deeply personal problem — his brother Aadil's lifelong struggle with earwax buildup. What started as a college dorm experiment with 3D-printed prototypes is today an FDA-cleared medical device used by clinics nationwide — making ear care more accessible and consumer-friendly than ever before.
 
The company’s flagship OtoSet was named among the Best Health Designs of 2023 by Fast Company, while videos of the device in action have racked up over 250M views online, proving just how urgent and universal this problem is. Tens of thousands of Americans have reported finding relief with OtoSet: hearing clearer, feeling cleaner, and reconnecting with the sounds they’ve been missing.
 
Sahil is one of the youngest people ever to receive FDA 510(k) clearance for a medical device and has raised $13M in venture funding on his journey to reshape the future of ear care.

Learning Points:
•	What exactly is earwax, and what is its purpose in the body?
•	When should someone see a doctor or specialist about their earwax?

From Whole30 to Carnivore: A 60-Day Nutrition Experiment With Andrea Ayesta

In this episode my guest is Dr. Kevin J. Tracey and we are discussing one of the most fascinating and revolutionary discoveries in modern medicine — the link between the vagus nerve, the inflammatory reflex, and the body’s innate ability to heal.

For years, inflammation has been seen as a silent driver behind chronic illness — from autoimmune disease and depression to heart disease and neurodegeneration. But what if the body already has a built-in mechanism to control it?


Dr. Tracey is the president and CEO of the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research at Northwell Health, a pioneer of vagus nerve research and author of The Great Nerve. A leader in the scientific fields of inflammation and neuroscience, his lab studies vagus nerve stimulation and bioelectronic medicine. His contributions include first identifying the therapeutic action of monoclonal anti-TNF antibodies and discovering the specific reflex control of immunity by the nervous system, called the “inflammatory reflex.” These discoveries launched the new scientific field called bioelectronic medicine, which investigates the therapeutic applications of vagus nerve stimulation to cure disease.
Dr. Tracey, a neurosurgeon, pursued studies of inflammation after the mysterious death of a toddler from sepsis who was in his care. His lab has since revealed molecular mechanisms of inflammation and identified the use of vagus nerve stimulation to treat it. An inventor on more than 120 U.S. patents and the author of more than 450 scientific publications, he is among the most highly cited scientists in the world. He co-founded the Global Sepsis Alliance, is the author of Fatal Sequence (Dana Press) and is a national and international lecturer.

Learning Points:

•	What is the vagus nerve?
•	What is the link between the vagus nerve, the inflammatory reflex, and the body’s innate ability to heal?
•	What is bioelectronic medicine?
