Episode 9: Are You Running on Stress Hormones?

Welcome back to the podcast! We are kicking off season 2 by talking all things stress hormones. Most of us are probably familiar with the all-too-popular "adrenal fatigue" diagnosis. What if there was a bigger picture to this story? If we zoom out from that acute focus on the body, we can see that there is a whole-body, systemic issue that's taking place. In this episode, we discuss how to support your system as a whole, break out of the "fight or flight" state, rebalance your hormones, and get back to the state of rest & digest.

Episode 8: Breaking Down Popular Diets

For the season 1 finale, we are going out with a bang & discussing POPULAR DIETS! We polled our audience to see which diets you guys wanted to hear about most, and the winners were Paleo, AIP, Keto, Whole30, and Intermittent Fasting. Our heart behind this episode is to paint the whole picture when it comes to these restrictive diets, and the whole picture includes the fact that going on one of these diets can leave you more depleted & further into dysfunction than where you were before you began. They do not address the root cause of symptoms, and they can also trigger orthorexic thoughts, food fears, & MORE food sensitivities. On this episode, we will break down each of the 5 diets by what they get right, what they get wrong, the missing minerals & nutrients, & why they feel "good" at first. Lastly, we're here to share that there IS a different way on your health pursuit, and one that supports your body on the most basic physiological level.

Episode 7: PCOS to Pregnant | Healing Infertility with Ashlee Rowland

It's estimated that 1 in 8 couples are struggling with infertility, and it's clear that the mainstream health + wellness approach to infertility is not identifying & addressing the issue at its root. In this episode, we sit down with Ashlee Rowland, who spent 4 years trying ALL the popular "health" diets [fasting, keto, paleo, AIP... you name it - she's tried it]. The end result was further depletion, deeper imbalances, & even a PCOS diagnosis. By God's grace, a friend introduced her to the idea of her minerals & metabolism. After only 2 months of working to restore her metabolism & all that had been depleted from birth control + fad diets, Ashlee healed her infertility & got pregnant with her baby boy! She has since developed an online course called Bare Naked Hormones, which provides her own personal blueprints to turn down the noise of the wellness world & balance hormones holistically.

Episode 6: Respectful Parenting + Simplifying Kids' Nutrition with Kaitlyn Sapp

In this episode, we interviewed the hilarious & beautiful Kaitlyn Sapp to merge two of our favorite topics: respectful parenting + nourishment. These topics are so important to join together, because they have everything to do with each other! Nourishing our children isn't just about cooking "healthy foods" - it's about modeling what we want to see in our children, listening to & validating their communication, honoring their autonomy, & letting go of the desire to obsessively control their behavior + actions. Respecting our children as whole beings from birth is the foundation we need to lay to be able to simplify their nutrition with ease, nourish their minds + bodies, & cultivate peaceful mealtimes.

Episode 4: Reclaiming the Female Libido

We are breaking taboos today to discuss this very relevant (and yet rarely discussed) topic - women's libido. Did you know that your libido is a marker of your health? It indicates safety within your body. Since libido is our body's desire to reproduce, our intelligent bodies will suppress that desire when it isn't safe to do so. So how can we create safety within our bodies & experience a thriving libido?
