What Am I Modeling with Dr. Tricia Pingel NMD
Here's the uncomfortable truth: You're modeling something through your behavior every single day, whether you realize it or not. The question that will change everything: What am I modeling?
I'm Dr. Tricia Pingel NMD, a naturopathic physician with an unusual background - I started working as a professional fashion model when I was 9 months old. Between modeling and medicine, I learned to look perfect while completely losing myself in the process.
When my mom died after a 9-month cancer battle, I realized my boys had been watching me their entire lives, learning that pushing through no matter what was the only way to live. That's when I found my way back to myself through hip hop dance and discovered the power of authentic living.
This show is for anyone tired of looking successful on the outside while barely holding it together on the inside.You'll hear my messy transformation stories, raw conversations with people who've stopped performing and started actually living, medical insights on stress and why your body keeps the score, real talk about surviving high-pressure work environments, and permission-giving moments that make you feel less alone.
This is your permission slip to stop modeling burnout and start curating joy.
New episodes every Tuesday.

They told her to spank her child. For tics. For neurological symptoms that weren't behavioral at all.
Welcome back to What Am I Modeling! Today I'm joined by Dr. Piper Gibson, Doctor of Holistic Nutrition and Medicine and Tic Disorder Specialist, who helps families worldwide uncover the root causes of neurological conditions in children—from Tourette's and tics to PANS/PANDAS.
In this eye-opening conversation, we explore:
✨ Why observational assessments often miss underlying neurological issues
✨ The dangerous misconceptions about "behavioral problems" in children
✨ How misinterpretation of symptoms leads to harmful parenting advice
✨ The critical difference between neurological conditions and behavioral issues
✨ Why spanking (or punishment) is NEVER appropriate for neurological symptoms
✨ How to advocate for your child when professionals get it wrong
✨ The collaborative approach parents need with healthcare providers
Dr. Piper Gibson is the founder of Regenerating Health and the Tic Disorder Institute, combining advanced functional lab testing, nutrigenomics, and customized protocols to naturally reverse symptoms. Her work has been featured at MAPS, A4M, and across major functional medicine platforms. Driven by both personal experience and professional expertise, Dr. Gibson is known for her direct, data-driven approach—and her mission to help kids thrive by empowering parents with answers, not guesswork.
Whether you're parenting a child with neurological challenges, navigating confusing medical advice, or advocating for proper diagnosis and care, this conversation offers validation and actionable insights into what's really happening when behavior isn't what it seems.
