From Within

For this episode, I sat down and reviewed my entire year to share the top five things that didn't work and what did instead in 2024. From personal to business things, I'm breaking it all down for you here with real and honest takeaways. Every year I sit down and review my journal to figure out what worked and what didn't, how well I accomplished my focus for the year and what I want to focus on in the new year. I decided to put it all into an episode for you along with some of the random thoughts that run through my head AND I make a huge announcement about the podcast at the end of the episode. Tune in to hear all the things!

If you're anything like me, then you prefer to use herbs and preventive measures during cold and flu season. While I fully believe that western/modern medicine has it's time and place, I do my best to avoid needed it. Especially, during cold months when sickness has more to do with germs and good nutrition that it does anything else. In this episode, I'm sharing my favorite things to keep on hand for preventative and immune boosting goodness.

We're often told that connectivity is at the tip of our fingers. But, why then, do we often feel so disconnected, overwhelmed, and lonely? Perhaps we've become too connected to a disconnected world and if so, how to we reclaim a sense of self and a peace of presence to live a life of beauty? In this episode, we chat with Hannah Brencher author of The Unplugged Hours. We discuss: How unplugging helps you find more purpose, creativity, and appreciation for the small but beautiful things in life. How unplugging helps you live life instead of trying to cultivate perfection and how that then allows you to connect or reconnect with people. How powerful of a tool unplugging can be for connecting with people and building friendships and just finding beauty in the mess of your life and someone else's. And how all of it leads to living life with a bit more peace and surety. If you are feeling a little overwhelmed in life, a little lonely, and a bit too connected in all the wrong ways, keep listening because we're speaking to all of that in this episode!

Have you ever experienced (or had a child experience) health symptoms no one could explain? Symptoms like eczema and food allergies are often called “normal” but my guest today refused to believe that was the life her daughter was destined for so she set out looking for deeper answers.

Why are we taught to track calories but not the nutritional value of the food we eat? The whole purpose of food to your body is to fuel it and while I think we should enjoy our food too, I don't think it should come at the cost of our health. Dr. Linus Pauling said, “You can trace every sickness, every disease and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.” So, it begs the question why we aren't starting our healing journeys in the kitchen more often? Answering this question is one of the reasons I set out to find simple, easy to digest systems for taking care of your health. What evolved from that is 2 steps each with three to four parts to help my body heal and stay supported at a molecular level. Now, I'm sharing these steps with you in a two part series.

Do you feel called to do so much but can't do it the way you are right now? Chronic fatigue, inflammation, digestive disorders, and hormone imbalances can all throw a wrench in the plans of life. But so can the medications that are supposed to help treat these things. Our bodies were not born broken and they have entire systems in them designed to keep things running smoothly at a molecular level. It's when these systems get overwhelmed and backed up that we start to see that manifest as symptoms like the ones I mentioned before. It's why I set out to break through the noise that is the holistic, non-toxic world and find a system that is easy to understand and simple to implement. What evolved from that is 2 steps each with three to four parts to help my body heal and stay supported at a molecular level. Now, I'm sharing these steps with you in a two part series.
