Beyond The Pain

Leigh Brandon

Booking Overview

This is a health and wellness interview show focused on chronic pain, root-cause approaches, and whole-person healing, with external guests including practitioners, authors, researchers, and people sharing substantial recovery experiences. PR agencies could credibly pitch functional-medicine clinicians, pain specialists, mind-body practitioners, health authors, and experts with well-developed recovery methods or relevant lived experience; booking difficulty is low because the show features accessible niche experts rather than highly prominent public figures.
