Kristine Carlson, New York Times bestselling co-author of the "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff" series, found herself facing this question when her husband Dr. Richard Carlson died unexpectedly at just 45 years old.In this deeply moving conversation, Kristine shares her remarkable journey from devastating grief to renewed purpose. With raw honesty, she reveals how she navigated raising teenage daughters alone while processing her own heartbreak, and the surprising spiritual connections that sustained her through the darkest days. "I had this conversation with myself where I could see myself doing this grief thing two ways," Kristine explains. "I chose to embrace what is, knowing I would have the inner guidance to teach me how to go through each day."Kristine's story isn't about quick fixes or toxic positivity. She acknowledges the profound pain of loss while illuminating how tragedy can become the doorway to a more authentic life. Most powerfully, she challenges the myth that grief must last forever, offering a liberating perspective on giving ourselves permission to experience joy again after loss. "Missing them and being in grief are two very different things," she shares. "You get used to missing them, but holding yourself to living a life of grief versus choosing light, love and joy - that becomes a choice."For anyone facing life's inevitable heartbreaks - whether from death, illness, or profound disappointment - Kristine offers practical wisdom on present moment awareness, gratitude practice, and following what she calls "breadcrumbs of joy." Her story demonstrates how we can transform our deepest wounds into our greatest gifts, emerging not diminished but expanded by our pain.Share this episode with someone navigating their own hero's journey through loss.

In this illuminating conversation with Jenn Kautsch, founder of Sober Sis, we explore the complex relationship between women, alcohol, and aging without judgment or rigid rules. Jenn shares her personal journey from "gray area" drinking to creating a vibrant alcohol-free lifestyle, offering powerful insights particularly relevant to women navigating their 40s, 50s, and beyond. We dive into surprising scientific facts about how alcohol affects women's bodies differently—especially as we age—and why the marketing of "mommy wine culture" has so effectively targeted women seeking relief from life's pressures.This isn't about labeling yourself or subscribing to someone else's definition of recovery. It's about honest curiosity and reclaiming your power in midlife. You'll discover why willpower isn't the answer (and what actually works instead), how to navigate social situations confidently, and why the question isn't "is my drinking bad enough to change?" but rather "is it good enough for the life I want?"Whether you're sober curious, looking to cut back, or simply interested in understanding the science behind alcohol's effects, this conversation offers compassionate wisdom and practical strategies for creating more mindful choices. The freedom waiting on the other side might just be the gateway to your most purposeful chapter yet.Share this episode with a friend who might benefit, and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review to help more women discover these important conversations!Support the showPlease rate & review my podcast with a few kind words on Apple or Spotify.

That's the reality for countless people struggling with emotional eating – a challenge that expert Tricia Nelson knows intimately.In this deeply personal conversation, Tricia shares her powerful journey of losing 50 pounds by healing the root causes of her emotional eating. She offers a refreshingly honest definition that cuts through the confusion: emotional eating is simply "eating to change how you feel." This insight immediately shifts our understanding away from willpower and toward emotional awareness.Tricia reveals why carbohydrates and sugary foods become such powerful comfort tools – they provide a quick serotonin hit that temporarily calms our anxiety. But as she explains, this strategy ultimately backfires, especially as we age and our bodies change. For midlife women experiencing hormonal shifts and accumulated life stressors, emotional eating often intensifies, creating a frustrating cycle that diets alone cannot fix.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Tricia challenges popular approaches like intermittent fasting, which she's found can actually worsen emotional eating patterns. Instead, she advocates for what she calls "three meal magic" – a structured approach that allows true hunger signals to emerge and emotions to be recognized rather than numbed with food."Overeaters are overdoers," Tricia explains, pinpointing how busyness serves as another numbing strategy alongside food. Her practical guidance on slowing down, creating community, and finding true nourishment beyond food offers a roadmap for anyone tired of the endless diet-binge cycle.Whether you're struggling with occasional stress eating or more serious food addiction, this episode provides compassionate insights and actionable steps toward healing your relationship with foodSupport the showPlease rate & review my podcast with a few kind words on Apple or Spotify.

Chloe explains why your tongue is a powerful diagnostic tool, revealing internal patterns through its color, coating, and marks. Those teeth marks on the sides of your tongue? They're actually showing spleen qi deficiency, common in overthinkers and worriers!The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we explore how hemp has been used in Chinese medicine for thousands of years. Far from being a modern addition, ancient Chinese practitioners recognized hemp's ability to tonify the liver, nourish the kidneys, and calm the heart (or spirit). Chloe breaks down the confusion around CBD, THC, and full-spectrum products, offering practical advice for finding quality products that actually work. Her insights on why full-spectrum hemp with that tiny 0.3% THC creates dramatically better results than isolates will change how you shop for these products.For women approaching or experiencing menopause, Chloe shares a beautiful perspective from Chinese medicine—viewing this transition as a "second spring" when energy previously directed toward reproduction redirects to the heart, allowing women to finally focus on themselves and share their authentic wisdom with the world.Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, sleep issues, hormonal challenges, or simply seeking a more balanced approach to wellness, this conversation offers practical wisdom that bridges ancient knowledge with modern understanding. The key takeaway? Building health through daily choices that follow the "middle way"—not perfection, but progress toward balance in all aspects of life.Support the showPlease rate & review my podcast with a few kind words on Apple or Spotify.

Stephen Davis, founder of Nikki Wearable, shares the deeply personal journey that led to creating this groundbreaking device—a 12-year battle to find answers for his daughter's mysterious illness that was eventually diagnosed as Lyme disease.When conventional treatments failed his family, Davis discovered the power of frequencies delivered through light. The Nikki wearable emerged as a wellness solution that uses specific light-emitted frequencies to communicate with cells throughout the body, essentially awakening the immune system to issues it's been ignoring. The results have been transformative, not just for Lyme patients but for people struggling with sleep issues, chronic pain, fatigue, stress, and more.The science behind Nikki challenges our traditional understanding of healing. As Davis explains, frequencies aren't new to medicine—they're embedded in everything from supplements to homeopathic remedies. What's revolutionary is the delivery method and precision. By capturing and digitizing frequencies from 74 different plants and delivering them through light, Nikki provides cells with information they need without introducing any substances into the body. The technology works by helping achieve homeostasis, activating the vagus nerve, and supporting the body's natural healing processes during parasympathetic states.Perhaps most compelling is the versatility of frequency therapy. The device offers programs for various wellness concerns, with more customization options on the horizon.

In this illuminating conversation with Bjorn Ekeberg, co-founder of Recharge Health, we uncover the science behind light therapy and explore why some devices deliver transformative results while others fall flat.Did you know that near-infrared light can penetrate up to four inches into your body, reaching deep tissues, joints, and even organs? Or that the power output of a device is often more crucial than its wavelength specifications? Bjorn shares a simple but powerful rule of thumb: "If it doesn't have a fan, it's not strong enough." This insight helps explain why those inexpensive light therapy belts often fail to deliver meaningful results.We dive deep into the cellular mechanisms at work, exploring how near-infrared light stimulates mitochondria—the energy centers that make up an astonishing 10% of your body weight. This cellular boost triggers cascading health benefits, from accelerated recovery and reduced inflammation to improved gut function and skin rejuvenation. Women experiencing perimenopausal or menopausal joint pain may find particular relief through targeted treatment, while athletes use it to prevent injuries and speed recovery from training.The applications extend far beyond what most people realize. Recent research shows promising results for respiratory conditions (including post-COVID recovery), thyroid function, fertility concerns, and even cognitive performance through the gut-brain axis. Whether you're seeking pain relief, faster recovery, or preventive health support, understanding the science behind effective light therapy empowers you to make informed choices in this rapidly evolving field.Support the showPlease rate & review my podcast with a few kind words on Apple or Spotify.

Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode!This special episode is dedicated to young women, though mothers with daughters will want to share this valuable conversation with them. Prevention isn't about fear or perfectionism—it's about tuning into your body's intelligence and responding with balance and awareness.Have you considered how your body sometimes whispers warnings before health issues become serious problems? As someone who ignored those whispers until thyroid cancer forced me to listen, I'm passionate about helping young women develop health awareness and midlife women and beyond.I explore the rise in autoimmune conditions among women, how 80% of diagnoses are women, and how modern lifestyle factors contribute to this trend. Your body gives subtle signs long before serious illness develops, but only if you're paying attention. From disrupted circadian rhythms to constant digital stimulation, from highly processed foods to toxic personal care products, young women today face unprecedented challenges to their well-being.I share practical wisdom about reconnecting with your body's signals: eating whole foods when possible, setting healthy boundaries with technology, prioritizing restorative sleep, maintaining healthy vitamin D levels, and addressing emotional wellbeing. I also discuss the profound mind-body connection, particularly how unprocessed emotions and self-criticism can manifest physically.This conversation isn't about scolding or restriction—it's about empowerment through awareness. When you're truly in your body and listening to its wisdom, you naturally make choices that support balance and vibrant health.
