WELCOME TO THE WHOLE CARE NETWORK!

Everyone has a story, but not everyone has a chance to tell their story!

At The Whole Care Network, we believe it is through story sharing where diversity meets the road which allows a community to collaborate on a common cause. On The Whole Care Network, we believe the best information and referrals comes from the stories we share.

On The Whole Care Network, our shows touch what we like to describe as the four pillars of health:

Physical | Social | Financial | Spiritual

You will find a variety of show hosts on The Whole Care Network who have a story to share, and a willingness to impact issues in and around the four pillars. Many of our show hosts are new to broadcasting because they have a willingness to share their story. 

You will also find established show hosts who still have a passion to share their story.
