Crap...
🥪➡️💥 PB&J. White bread. Normal… right? 👟 At 15 years old, Dr. Aaron Chapa was overweight, confused, and hungry for direction — with no real guidance on food, health, or how the body actually works. 👟 That’s where this episode of Other People’s Shoes begins. 👟 🎙✨ CRAP Sometimes what we eat. Sometimes what we believe. Sometimes what we’ve been told is “fine.” 👟 In this conversation, Dr. Chapa shares how one small change cutting sugar led to a massive shift (inch by inch, it’s a cinch). We talk about food, loss, systems that fail us, and what happens when health becomes personal. 👟 🫀 Holding his father in his arms at the moment of death changed everything. 🍭 Should sugar be treated like a controlled substance? 🎥 Are we eating “make-believe food” like in Hook? 🥩 Is carnivore the answer… or just part of the conversation? 👟 This episode isn’t about perfection. It’s about awareness. And deciding what you don’t want to keep swallowing anymore. 👟 👟 Step into Dr. Aaron’s shoes and ask yourself what needs to change, starting now. 👟 #OtherPeoplesShoes #HungrySeason #CRAP #FoodTruth #FunctionalHealth #OneDegreeShift #CellularHealth #SugarAwareness #EatBetterLiveBetter #RealConversations #PodcastLife #WellnessJourney
🎙✨ CRAP
🧩 Season Theme: Hungry
It starts with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on white bread. 🥪
Cheap. Easy. Normal.
At 15 years old, Dr. Aaron Chapa found himself overweight, confused, and hungry for direction with no real guidance on food, health, or how the body actually works.
This episode is called “CRAP” because sometimes what we eat, what we trust, and what we’re told is “normal” slowly shapes us in ways we don’t see… until it costs us.
👣 Guest Introduction
Dr. Aaron Chapa’s health journey didn’t start in a clinic it started in his own body.
In eighth grade, struggling with his weight, he made one bold decision: cut sugar. That single change led to a 45-pound weight loss in one summer and sparked a lifelong pursuit of health and wellness.
But everything shifted when Aaron held his father in his arms as he passed away suddenly from a heart attack. In that moment, he realized the system meant to protect health had failed and his calling became clear.
Today, Dr. Chapa is a functional wellness educator, chiropractor, and co-founder of Living Well Clinical Nutrition Center, helping people heal without drugs or surgery by focusing on health at the cellular level.
