On this episode, host Katy Starr chats with Mike Toberer, founder of Mountain Mule Packers and Mission Mules about: Unique differences between horses and mules on tough terrainThe worst mistake new packers make and how to avoid itHow their efforts in the Hurricane Helene response changed their purpose From his early days navigating the Sierra Nevada Mountains to training elite military teams and delivering life-saving supplies after Hurricane Helene, Mike shares how mules do more than carry gear, they carry purpose.
Ever feel like your cravings (or impulses) have control over you?In this episode, we're breaking down a simple but powerful process to take back your power without relying on willpower alone. You'll learn how to pause in the moment, understand why the urge is there, and see it for what it really is (hint: you won't explode if you don't give in). I'll walk you through how to write down the urge, your perceived reasons for acting on it, and then uncover the true cost of giving in. From there, we'll make a decision from a slower, clearer place rather than from that instant “must do it now” energy. I'll also share a personal example of how I've experienced this urge loop in my work life, and how simply planning when I'll handle something helps my brain relax. We'll talk about why saying “no” often makes the urge stronger at first and how to ride it like a wave instead of letting it sweep you away. Think of it like handling an angry toddler's tantrum: it feels intense, but it passes. By the end, you'll have a repeatable framework for handling cravings, emotional eating triggers, or even those distracting work pings that derail your focus. This is your guide to breaking the cycle and building self-trust one urge at a time.

If you've ever wondered how to truly support your body after coming off birth control or what to do first when you're feeling bloated and sluggish, this episode is for you. In part two of our Q&A series, we're diving into your most-requested questions: going deep on women's health, hormone balance, and big-picture life goals. I share my supplement thoughts post–birth control, why broad advice often backfires without proper bloodwork, and how our FLUSH protocol helps set a strong foundation for healing. We also discuss what most women get wrong before coming to Vital Spark and whether a DUTCH test is worth it while still on hormonal contraception. From there, we get personal: what I would tell my past self, how we're thinking about family 20 years down the line, and even some of my non-profit aspirations for the future. Finally, I break down the first steps to take when you're bloated, fatigued, and don't know where to start so you can stop spinning your wheels and start feeling like yourself again. This one is packed with both strategy and soul. Whether you're here for the hormone hacks, the mindset shifts, or just a little encouragement for your own journey, you'll leave with clarity and practical next steps to move forward with confidence.

You've been doing “all the right things” for a few weeks. Eating better, moving your body but the scale hasn't budged. Sound familiar? That's not failure. That's normal. In this episode, we unpack the uncomfortable truth: healing and real transformation take time, often much longer than we want. You'll hear why quick fixes and crash diets set you up for disappointment, and why slow, steady progress is the only path to sustainable change. We'll talk about prepping your body before weight loss even begins, what to expect when you start eating more, and why discomfort (yes, including hunger and resistance) is part of the journey. I also share what it took for me to transform over two years and why I still don't believe in a “finish line.” If you're frustrated with your progress or tempted to give up after a few weeks, this episode will reframe everything. Healing is possible. It just doesn't happen overnight.

If you're eating clean, working out, and still not losing weight… your gut might be the missing piece. In today's episode, I'm breaking down 10 reasons why gut health directly impacts your metabolism, hormones, and ability to lose fat and why testing with a GI MAP could be the game-changer you've been missing. We'll talk about how certain gut infections like H. pylori or parasites keep your body in survival mode, signaling it to hold on to fat. You'll learn how your gut bacteria influence your cravings, blood sugar, and even your metabolism through short-chain fatty acids like butyrate. I'll explain why hidden gut inflammation can block fat loss and how slow digestion (aka not pooping daily) recirculates estrogen and toxins, stalling your progress. We'll also dive into how bad bacteria can steal essential nutrients you need for fat-burning, how gut health affects your thyroid function, and why your gut impacts not just your body, but your brain chemistry and motivation too. Plus, I'll explain why detoxing estrogen properly is key to shedding stubborn fat and how even the “perfect” diet won't work if your gut can't break down food and eliminate waste. This episode will help you see why your gut is the foundation of sustainable weight loss and why it's not just about willpower or cutting calories. If you're feeling stuck, testing your gut might be the missing link to get your body working with you again.

Listen to the stories of four women who recently journeyed thorugh my small group mentorship experience, the field. They all joined for different reasons and had different experiences yet as you will hear, their core values remain the same. The field is currently open for enrolment. Explore all the details and apply here - https://www.felicitydavies.com.au/thefield Jenna joined the field to get back into riding vs solely caretaking. What unfolded was a deeply healing journey that amplified her self-trust. Bianca realised her horse was mirroring so much back to her. Through the field, she softened, listened, and let her horse guide the way - taking their relationship to a whole new level. Gemma joined the field to deepen her connection with her mare Freya - and they've gone from strength to strength, even playing at liberty with what she calls “energy circling.” Tina was caught in a cycle of trying to fix her mare and constantly second-guessing herself.

Are you stuck in that cycle of wanting to ride… But not actually riding the way you want? Or maybe you're not riding at all right now, even though the tack, the horse, and the arena are all sitting there, waiting for you?! In this episode of the Daily Strides Podcast for Equestrians, we're getting honest about the real reason so many riders stall out in their progress. (Spoiler alert: it's not motivation.) I'm walking you through a simple 4-step process to get back into the saddle, or back into the right kind of saddle time... This week. Yes, this week! This process works whether you're returning to riding, restarting your horse's training, or simply feeling stuck in a rut. The key is clarity. And we're going to create that together, one tiny step at a time. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why knowing what needs to be done isn't enough to get unstuck How to set a clear, specific goal for the next 6 months of your riding The simple way to spot the real gaps between where you are and where you want to be How to choose one small action to take in the next 3 days, and why that's the key to building momentum Why clarity comes after action, not before The full article for this, with all of the examples and links, is at:- https://stridesforsuccess.com/episode1374-why-youre-still-not-riding-like-you-want-to-and-what-to-do-about-it-this-week/ Tell Me What You're Committing To...

If your body feels like it's stuck in stress mode no matter how “healthy” you try to be, your mindset might be the missing piece. In this episode, we're breaking down four common mental blocks that keep your hormones out of balance… and simple mindset shifts that can help you finally feel more at home in your body. We'll talk about how perfectionist thinking can actually keep your nervous system on edge and how focusing on small daily habits (à la James Clear's 1-degree plane shift) can create long-term change without burnout.Next up: guilt and shame. I'll share the stonecutter analogy that helps you swap shame for pride and consistency.We'll also explore how body frustration can morph into powerful gratitude when you zoom out including a powerful reframe I picked up from Alex Hormozi.And if you've ever felt like a single slip-up ruins your progress, you'll love the final mindset swap: learning to see those moments as tune-ups, not setbacks. Something I've had to lean into recently myself. These mindset upgrades aren't just motivational fluff. They lower stress, regulate your nervous system, and support better hormone balance over time.Whether you're deep in your healing journey or just getting started, these small mental shifts can make a big physical difference!

This week on the Being Herd Podcast we have two guests with us! Zoha Jung and Carina Maiwald. Zoha is the founder of The Backwater Sanctuary, a non-profit rehabilitation and rescue sanctuary based in Kabini, India. Zoha's drive and passion for equine / animal welfare is an inspiration. Her commitment to creating a safe space for animals to be who they are, and to ultimately thrive is a testament to her core values and belief in the possibility and magic of healing. She is also my cousin so I feel very grateful to have a member of my family on the pod!Carina is a multi award winning Equine Photographer, healer, and inspiration as well. To me she embodies truth, courage, intuition, and presence in one of the most profound ways I have seen to date. Her passion for sharing the truth of the horses she is photographing instills a sense of deep magic into the framework of her purpose. She is also passionate about capturing and sharing the beauty of the journey horses go through in their healing. Together Zoha and Carina are forces of nature. In this episode we hear them give their perspectives on what it is like to share the stories of equines who are healing to an audience who primarily values pleasing aesthetics. We also discuss equine sensitivity and the magical, synchronistic healing journey of Hector who Carina recently worked with at the Sanctuary.You can find Carina's incredible photographs and Zoha's powerful, informative words here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ /?hl=enWebsite: https://www.thebackwatersanctuary.com/Connect with Carina directly here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carinamaiwald/?hl=enWebsite: https://carinamaiwald.com/Thank you for listening!

Ever feel like you're working so hard in the saddle… but nothing's changing? In this episode of the Daily Strides Podcast for Equestrians, we're exploring the key difference between training and retraining, and why understanding this shift can unlock your next breakthrough.

We'll cover: How to tell if you're training or retraining (for both you and your horse) Why retraining is more emotionally charged and what that means in practice The 5 signs you're stuck in a retraining loop Why unlearning is just as important as learning in your riding journey Practical ways to move forward, including how to use video and coaching to shorten your progress path This episode is your invitation to pause, reassess, and choose the right strategy, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

"You've cultivated enough self trust and you know what you're doing, now can you listen to your body? Can you listen to your horse?

I've been getting a lot of questions lately as our following and show has grown such as: “What actually is a functional health approach to weight loss?” “Are labs like the GI Map or DUTCH test worth it?” “What do I even do with the results?” If you've ever thought, “I eat clean. I work out. I track my food. And yet… nothing's changing,” this episode is for you. In today's conversation, I open up about what I've learned after years of doing everything “right” and still feeling inflamed, exhausted, and stuck in a body that felt like it was working against me. We'll unpack the real reasons your body may be resisting fat loss, healing, and energy. To all the ill-informed men in my comments: It's not just discipline or willpower or eating less and moving more. You'll learn why functional testing can reveal what basic labs miss, and how systems like your gut, thyroid, liver, and adrenals all communicate in a connected “group chat”, where one disruption creates a cascade. I'll share the exact myths I had to break about weight loss, hormones, and healing and the turning point that finally helped me get real answers. This episode is about reconnecting with your body, learning to read its signals, and understanding that your symptoms aren't random, they're messages. You'll walk away with clarity, compassion for yourself, and hope that yes, this is fixable. If your body feels broken… this is the permission slip and path forward you've been waiting for.

Ever feel like you're doing everything right in the saddle… But your horse is still resistant, crooked, or just not quite “with” you? What if the real issue isn't your horse, but something you're not seeing in yourself? In this episode of the Daily Strides Podcast for Equestrians, we're taking a fresh look at how video can help uncover the real reason things might feel off during your ride. I'm sharing why so many riders miss critical asymmetries and habits that are actually holding their horses back. And how video can become your most honest, effective riding coach.
You love the gym and it's been your sanctuary away from your stress for years. But what if your go-to stress relief tool is now part of the problem? In today's episode, we dive deep into why intense workouts might be silently burning you out rather than building you up. If you've been feeling exhausted, foggy, or stuck despite training hard, this one's for you. We explore why cardio and high-intensity workouts only offer temporary relief from mental stress and how they can actually strain your nervous system when your cortisol is already tapped out. I'll share what's really going on when your “post-workout high” feels amazing in the moment but leaves you drained long-term. More importantly, you'll learn five powerful, science-backed stress management tools that rebuild your system instead of depleting it. From daily walks to somatic resets and nervous system journaling, this episode is all about redefining strength. Because true power isn't in pushing harder: it's in knowing when to rest. If your body is in overdraft, it's time to stop swiping the stress credit card and start healing for good.

"I've always felt like when we can go into the spaces that we don't often share with others, that's really where we're going to find the gems, the truth. I feel like the horses of course lead us in this. I would always say that I'm like an edge walker. So when people come and spend time with me, we're probably going to sort of veer off course to the edge because that's for me that's where the juice is, you know, that's where we're going to really get to the, the meat of whatever it is, who we are, why we're here, what we're passionate about, what, what matters to us. That's my biggest passion is like helping guide people there, spending time with people there, helping them to feel comfortable there, and then seeing what happens when we sit, when we hang out there." - Chloe Elgar Connect with Chloe: https://www.instagram.com/channeledbychloe/ https://www.channeledbychloe.com/ Connect with me: https://www.felicitydavies.com.au https://www.instagram.com/felicitydavies_/
