Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about the show, guesting, and seeing Dr. Ryan.
When do new episodes come out?
Every Tuesday morning, Eastern time. The show has been publishing since July 2026, and the full back catalog is on the episodes page.
Where can I listen?
Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or any podcast app you like via our RSS feed. YouTube and Amazon Music are not up yet. When they are, they will show up on the subscribe page.
Is this a Catholic podcast or a Christian one?
It is a Christian health and wellness podcast. Ryan and Annie are Catholic and do not hide it, so when they talk about their own prayer life or their own parish, that is the tradition they are speaking from. But the show is for any Christian who wants to take better care of the body God gave them. The saints show up as guides and witnesses, not as a membership test.
Are Dr. Ryan and Annie taking guests on the show?
Yes. Email annie@healthinthespirit.com with a one-paragraph topic pitch and a link to a sample of your work.
Can I see Dr. Ryan as a patient?
Yes. Visit thewellnesswaymason.com or use the Contact page for self-registration with The Wellness Way Mason in Mason, Ohio.
Is the podcast affiliated with The Wellness Way?
Dr. Ryan is the chiropractor of The Wellness Way Mason. Health in the Spirit is its own venture, Christian in framing and broader in topic, and is not a corporate Wellness Way property.
How do you decide which saints to feature?
We started with Cosmas & Damian, Hildegard of Bingen, and Augustine of Hippo because they explicitly held body and soul together. Two were physicians and one was an herbalist. As the show grows we will profile more, including Saint Charbel, Saint Luke, Saint Raphael, Padre Pio, and Saint Gianna Beretta Molla.
Is there a community I can join?
Not yet, but it is being built. There is a waitlist on the community page, and members get in first.
Do I have to agree with everything you believe to listen?
No. Come as you are. If you are curious about what faith has to do with how you eat, move, sleep, and heal, you are in the right place.
