Welcome to The Informed Chiropractor, the go-to podcast for neurologically based chiropractors who are ready to make chiropractic relevant again. Hosted by Dr. Don MacDonald, a 26+ year chiropractor, speaker, and creator of the MacDonald Safety Corridor Protocol, this show blends vitalistic chiropractic principles with modern neuroscience through the lens of the Polyvagal Theory.
Every week, we explore how to shift from a mechanistic model to a salutogenic, nervous system-forward approach that fosters true regulation, coregulation, and healing. Whether you’re navigating burnout, refining your adjusting, or searching for a clearer way to communicate the value of chiropractic, this podcast is your home.
You’ll hear interviews with global experts, real talk from Dr. Don and Brandi MacDonald, and actionable tools to build a practice rooted in safety, interoception, and chiropractic certainty.
👉 If you’re a purpose-driven chiropractor who wants to lead with connection, adjust with clarity, and reclaim the art of healing, you’re in the right place.

Tristan Schaub is the Co-founder of ChiroSushi. Growing up in a chiropractic office, he decided to take his skills to Silicon Valley. Tristan started working on a bunch of start-ups like DoctorBase and found success in them. Also, he has helped chiropractors with their businesses and helped them understand that they have people they can lean on.
On this episode, he shares his story on how he got arrested in San Francisco and how he ended up being the co-owner of the first ever virtual classroom for approved court-ordered classes.
In spite of the challenges Tristan faced, he continued learning and kept a mindset of self-development. He went into prison with a mentality that he's going to read, learn about people, and develop a new business rather than playing the victim game.
