Welcome to another episode of Flip Your Script, a vodcast by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, hosted by ACLM President Dr. Padmaja Patel. In just about 15 minutes, we explore five key takeaways that highlight the how of lifestyle medicine.
This episode, “Equitable Access to Lifestyle Medicine,” features Dr. Elizabeth Markle and Jacque Salmon—two trailblazers at the intersection of mental health, lifestyle medicine, and community-based care.
They share how their lived experiences and professional insights have led them to develop holistic, equity-centered programs that reimagine healing beyond the confines of traditional clinical care. They explore the power of “community as medicine,” the significance of trauma-informed care, and how culturally rooted, joyful interventions can ignite transformation and resilience.
Learn why scalable, system-level change begins with grassroots collaboration, how to engage trusted community leaders in delivering lifestyle medicine, and what it truly means to center vitality, vulnerability, and action in patient care. If you’re committed to reaching underserved populations and designing healing experiences that last, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) is the medical professional society for physicians and other professionals dedicated to clinical and worksite practice of lifestyle medicine as the foundation of a transformed and sustainable healthcare system.
Lifestyle medicine is a medical specialty that uses therapeutic lifestyle interventions as a primary modality to treat chronic conditions including, but not limited to, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and obesity.
Lifestyle medicine-certified clinicians are trained to apply evidence-based, whole-person, prescriptive lifestyle change to treat and, when used intensively, often reverse such conditions. Applying the six pillars of lifestyle medicine—a whole-food, plant-predominant eating pattern, physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky substances, and positive social connections—also provides effective prevention for these conditions.
