Evolution of Medicine Podcast

Julia Hotz is a journalist and author, who wrote a book called The Connection Cure: The Prescriptive Power of Movement, Nature, Art, Service and Belonging. James and Julia connected because her new book is strikingly synergistic in topic and title to James’ second book, The Community Cure: Transforming Health Outcomes Together, which calls for readers to adopt group care principles to make lifestyle medicine more widely accessible and sustainable.

This is an enlivening conversation, where you’ll hear about the data backing social prescribing as an antidote to the most prevalent chronic health issues of this generation: illnesses exacerbated by the loneliness epidemic, such as attention and mood issues and a slew of chronic illnesses.

Tune in to learn about:

  • Financial benefits of social prescribing
  • Business solutions for supporting community-based solutions to chronic health issues
  • How science backs social prescribing as an effective solution to ailments like chronic pain, trauma, dementia, diabetes and loneliness
  • Potential for insurance companies to incentivize social prescriptions
  • The benefits of art and nature on health
  • And much more
