In this powerful and thoughtful conversation, we welcome Dr. Karynthia Glasper-Phillips, an ordained minister, physician assistant in family medicine, award-winning author, and conference speaker whose life’s work centers on restoring the health of spirit, mind, and body.

With more than two decades of experience serving both the church and the medical field, Dr. Glasper-Phillips brings a unique and compassionate perspective on the human condition. Her work bridges faith, medicine, and personal reflection, reminding us that in a culture driven by constant productivity, we often lose sight of something essential—our own well-being.

During this episode, Dr. Glasper-Phillips shares insights from her book Press Pause, encouraging listeners to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and rediscover the power of intentional quiet time. She speaks candidly about the dangers of burnout, the importance of self-preservation, and how caring for our inner lives allows us to live more fully and serve others more faithfully.

Through both her medical practice and ministry, Dr. Glasper-Phillips gently reminds us that loving ourselves enough to pause is not selfish—it is necessary.

Dr. Glasper-Phillips lives in Nashville with her husband and continues to speak, teach, and inspire audiences across the country.

What happens when science, imagination, and miles above the earth collide?
In this episode, we sit down with Nicholas — creator of the Vitalerium Series, a science-fiction saga literally written at 36,000 feet. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, and trained through Northeastern University’s Doctor of Physical Therapy Program, Nicholas followed a winding path through medical science, wound healing, burn treatment, and regenerative medicine—before answering the creative call he could no longer ignore.

Spending years traveling the country to work alongside burn surgeons and survivors, Nicholas found inspiration in the quiet moments between destinations. Somewhere between takeoff and landing, the universe of Vitalerium was born. Drawing influence from science-fiction giants like Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, Frank Herbert, and Isaac Asimov, he crafted a story where science meets morality, and humanity’s future hangs in the balance.

In this conversation, we explore:
• How a career in medical science shaped his storytelling
• Writing a novel in the skies—literally
• The intersection of science fiction, ethics, and humanity
• The expansive vision behind a seven-book series
• Crafting the journey of protagonist Roman Matthews
