Hi Mama!
In this episode, I’m talking about one of my favorite topics… snacks! 🍿😋 But before you picture me hoarding granola bars, let’s just say this convo takes a few surprising turns.
We’re unpacking how snacks can be a sneaky pitfall on your health journey — and how a simple mindset shift might just change everything. You’ll hear why I’ve started looking at snacks a little differently these days.
If you’ve ever found yourself hungry between meals and unsure what to reach for, this one’s for you. Practical, light, and totally doable — just the way I like it.
Grab you favorite “snack”  and get ready to see your fridge in a whole new way. 🍇🥗

Hey Mama!
Ever wondered what it really takes to live to 100—and still be dancing, weaving, walking mountains, or sipping a glass of red wine while doing it? In this episode, we’re heading on a global adventure to some of the most fascinating longevity hotspots in the world.
From a Japanese island where people eat till they're only 80% full, to a California town where weekly rest is sacred, and even a Costa Rican peninsula where sweet treats and strong coffee are totally on the menu — you’ll hear how lifestyle, food, purpose, and a whole lot of community magic come together for some seriously long (and happy) lives.
I’ll share a few takeaways that stuck with me—and maybe nudge you to rethink your next meal, your sense of purpose, or even just your to-do list. This one's for the curious, the health seekers, and those of us who occasionally wonder, “What’s their secret to optimal health...and can I get in on it?”
Pull up a chair (or go for a walk, your call!)—this episode is a journey worth taking.

Hey there, and welcome back! 👋
In today’s episode, I’m taking a break from all the noise in the health world — you know, the “top 5 must-do” lists and all the conflicting advice — and instead, I’m turning to the people who are actually living the healthiest, longest lives.
We’re kicking off a mini-series exploring the Blue Zones, starting with the dreamy island of Ikaria, Greece (seriously, can we all just move there?).
I’ll be chatting about what makes this place so special when it comes to health and longevity — from their food and drinks to their lifestyle and mindset. 
So if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by all the health “shoulds,” this one’s for you. Let’s get curious, inspired, and maybe even a little more relaxed about what true wellness and an optimal diet looks like.
Can’t wait to dive in with you!

Hey there, friends! 
In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to spot the difference between health numbers that look good on paper and something that actually helps in real life. I’m diving into why health outcomes matter way more than those flashy numbers on your lab report so you don’t have to be afraid of every little change.
We’ll also have a little fun calling out the wild world of self-reported data, and I’ll share my personal pet peeve about poor quality studies in both the mainstream and alternative health categories. 
Plus, I’m digging into how changing the definition of a diagnosis can suddenly make a whole lot of healthy people “sick,” and why that’s something to watch out for. And of course, we’re talking about the importance of the long game.
Grab your favorite drink and settle in — this one’s a mix of myth-busting, detective work, and learning how to ask better questions about your health. Let’s go!

Hey Mama, and welcome back! Today, we’re taking a deep dive into the flu vaccine — specifically, how well it actually works. No hype, no fear-mongering — just the data speaking for itself.
We’re going to look at what "effectiveness" really means according to our health agencies, some eyebrow-raising findings from studies over the decades, and the role of industry-funded research. From the early days of flu shots in the 1940s to more recent reviews questioning their impact, there’s a lot to unpack.
I’m not here to convince you of anything — just to encourage you to ask good questions. Take what you learn, dig deeper, and stay curious.
Oh, and if you’re wondering about safety and side effects… that’s a conversation for another episode. Stay tuned!

Hey Mama!
I still laugh when I think about my pregnancy cravings — some things were delicious, and others, well… let’s just say my rotisserie chicken story makes me laugh to this day!
But let’s be real — sometimes it’s hard enough to just eat when you’re expecting, let alone think about what’s best for you and your baby.
In this episode, we’re breaking down what optimal nutrition looks like during pregnancy so that you can think about this ahead of time. What should you focus on? What should you avoid? And did you know that what your mom ate while pregnant with you could impact your health today? Yep, it’s wild!
We’ll talk about the hidden risks of certain foods, why some so-called “healthy” options might not be as great as they seem, and what you can do to fuel yourself (and your growing little one) the right way.
If you are already pregnant, maybe this information will give you some things to think about when you are feeling more like eating.
So, whether you're currently pregnant, planning for the future, or just curious about the impact of food on health, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss. Let’s dive in!

Hi Mamas,
Get ready for an inspiring and heart-centered conversation with Sarah Joy, an emotional health coach and the founder of House of Belonging. 
In this episode, we dive deep into her personal journey of navigating the medical system as a mom of a special needs child. Sarah shares the raw and emotional moments of receiving unexpected news about her son’s health, how she learned to advocate for him, and the challenges she faced in balancing medical advice with her own research and intuition. 
We talk about the power of asking questions, standing firm when you feel unheard, and assembling the right care team for your child. If you’ve ever felt dismissed in a doctor’s office or overwhelmed by medical decisions, this episode will give you the confidence to step into your role as the ultimate advocate for your child. 
So grab a notebook, maybe some tissues, and let’s dive in!
