Causes or Cures
"For the Nerds and the Nerd Nots"
Causes or Cures is a health podcast hosted by Dr. Eeks—an independent, grassroots show driven by curiosity and a passion for breaking down complex health topics into bite-sized, easy-to-understand insights. Dr. Eeks works as a senior public health consultant in the realm of global health, outbreak response, and health communication. She's all about making science relatable and often uses a blue-collar sense of humor to drive the message home.
On this podcast, Dr. Eeks talks with experts from around the world (doctors, researchers, public health pros, and more) to dive into the latest hot topics in health and research, all in a down-to-earth kind of way. She also includes people with compelling stories of healing and "characters" because life is too boring and short to leave out characters. ;)
DISCLAIMER: Some topics are more controversial than others, so keep in mind that this is information only and not health advice. Dr. Eeks doesn't endorse any of her guests' views, and despite a strict health routine, nor does she endorse any products, supplements, oils, magic socks or potions. If an episode is sponsored by a company she likes, she will say so in the show notes!
Causes or Cures is not a "news site." It's about having conversations, and Dr. Eeks is confident that she can have a respectful conversation with anyone, even people who think far differently than she does. (At least that's been her experience at hole-in-the-walls & on the NYC sidewalks.) The point is to not take anything here as Gospel. Sometimes Dr. Eeks' dog Barnaby makes his opinion known, but the good news is that he's a smart dog. Most importantly, she hopes this podcast encourages folks to stay curious, empathic, hopeful, compassionate, honest, open-minded, and engaged. Freedom of discussion is a beautiful thing, delightfully messy, and one that many take for granted.

How to Find Your Inner Billionaire, with Debbie Dobbins
In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks chats with Debbie Dobbins, international prosperity consciousness speaker/teacher and author of Your Inner Billionaire.
Why listen: Debbie’s origin story isn’t a soft-focus vision board. It's not feel-good Instagram or TikTok reels. It’s making millions..., then dollar-store cookies on food stamps; addiction, cancer, and IRS debt..., followed by a rebuild grounded in daily practices and a different relationship with money.
What's covered in this episode:
- “Inner Billionaire” 101: What it is (identity, not net worth) and why strategy fails without it.
- Prosperity ↔ Poverty cycles: How Debbie bounced after addiction, cancer, and tax debt, and the moment she stopped self-sabotaging.
- Knowing vs. Healing: Why giving great advice isn’t the same as living it and how she bridged the gap.
- Abundance as a foundation: “The universe responds to beliefs, not circumstances” She goes beyond the feel-good memes and tells us what that means in practice.
- Your money story: Spotting the script you’re running and rewriting it so it serves you.
- Body–mind money cues: Posture for prosperity, the “money dance,” and somatic nudges that reinforce belief.
- First steps if you feel lost: One mindset shift and one tiny habit to start today.
- Setbacks: How to expect them, metabolize them, and keep going.
- Why “money is your most important relationship”: What she really means, and how to make it a healthier one.
- Queen of Magic? Yes, Eeks asked.
