What lifestyle sets us up to have a healthier gut?

Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.” Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“ Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

Today we sit down with Alex, a nurse practitioner and mama of two, who shares her journey from a scheduled breech cesarean to a fast, spontaneous VBAC at a birth center. After two unsuccessful ECV attempts, Alex planned for a cesarean with her first baby. Along the way, she also experienced the heartbreak of miscarriage before welcoming her daughter. Alex opens up about navigating conflicting medical opinions (including being told by an MFM that her baby would die– not okay!!) and how her and her medical doctor husband's views on out-of-hospital birth evolved over time. Alex also shares why practicing for labor could only take her so far before surrender became the greatest lesson, the importance of surrounding yourself with more than just a supportive provider, and how having an encouraging birth team made all the difference. Alex especially talks about how her VBAC-certified doula was an invaluable part of that team. We also discuss some of the evidence behind using ultrasounds to measure scar thickness as a predictor of a VBAC outcome or uterine rupture, and why ACOG does NOT recommend it.

She also has a remarkable personal story, returning to school for her Master's in Nursing in her 50s while running a busy practice.

We can't wait to experience miracles with you! Welcome to a new episode of the Future Generations Podcast! Today, Dr. Stanton Hom sits down with Dr. Patrick Flynn, a chiropractor, immunology geek, and founder of a rapidly growing network of clinics known for life-changing clinical results. In this episode, they unpack the clash between the dominant medical "firefighter" model and a chiropractic "carpenter" paradigm that sees the body as intelligently adaptive, not broken. From trauma, toxins, and thoughts to auto-suggestion, vaccines, fertility, and the gut–brain–immune connection, Dr. Flynn lays out how chiropractic thinking reshapes labs, lifestyle, and long-term outcomes. You'll hear real clinical stories, hard questions about responsibility and prevention, and a powerful call for chiropractors and patients alike to reclaim a vitalistic, principle-driven approach to health and freedom. Highlights: "You don't see the world the way it is, you see the world the way you are." "True preventative health care is more of a chiropractic principle." "A true scientist will always have a comma in his sentence, not a period." "I'm a chiropractor. That just separates me from the thinking that dominates us today."

What happens when a pediatric nurse practitioner suddenly finds herself on the other side of diagnosis? On this week's episode of Inside the Children's Hospital, Katie Taylor sits down with Laura Forcella, a developmental pediatric nurse practitioner and mom to a son with Dup15q syndrome and epilepsy. Laura shares the deeply personal journey of recognizing her son's infantile spasms, navigating a rare disease diagnosis, and balancing life as both a medical professional and a caregiver. Laura opens up about the unique challenges of being a "med mom," the emotional shift from provider to parent, and how her experiences have transformed the way she supports families in her own clinical practice. Together, Katie and Laura discuss the power of parental intuition, the importance of early intervention, building a village of support, and finding moments of joy amidst the complexities of caregiving. Whether you're a parent navigating a diagnosis, a healthcare professional supporting families, or someone looking for encouragement on a difficult journey, this conversation is filled with compassion, wisdom, and hope. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Laura's path from pediatric ICU and ER nurse to developmental pediatric nurse practitioner How she recognized the early signs of infantile spasms in her son The diagnostic journey that led to a Dup15q syndrome diagnosis What it's like to care for patients while navigating your own child's medical complexities Why videos can be critical when seeking answers for concerning symptoms The importance of trusting your instincts as a parent How early intervention services can help while waiting for specialist appointments The realities of balancing advocacy, caregiving, work, and self-care Finding community through rare disease organizations and social media How a child's diagnosis can shape and strengthen a parent's identity Resources Mentioned: Dup15q Alliance Early Intervention Programs (available in every U.S. state) Connect with Laura: Developmental Med Mom on Instagram (@developmentalmedmom) Connect with us!

What if the most important care in the entire healthcare system is also the most underfunded? While hospitals and inpatient reimbursements rise with inflation, the physician fee schedule has quietly declined roughly 33% in real terms over 25 years — and this year it's facing another cut. In this episode, Jamie Preston sits down with Your Health CEO Matt Staub, just back from Capitol Hill, where he spent a record-setting 95-degree day meeting with seven legislative offices to advocate for physicians, providers, and the patients they serve across rural South Carolina, Georgia, and beyond. What follows is part field report, part reflection on why preventive primary care saves money and lives — and why we plan meticulously for weddings, retirement, and vacations, but treat our own health with a "call us if something happens" approach. In this conversation: Why a 2.5–5% physician fee cut hits frontline rural practices hardest The bipartisan doctors' caucus and the real appetite for reform Why winning can come from a loss — the Kobe Bryant mindset on process over outcome How a Disney ride (Spaceship Earth) reframes humanity's whole story around communication The case for proactive, team-based primary care over reactive sick visits Press play for a conversation about advocacy, communication, and a simple, powerful idea: the change you need to make starts with you.

The Pennsylvania Council on the Arts is restoring state funding to smaller arts organizations. The council voted to correct an overhaul of the state arts funding process after pushback from community arts organizations.Public school teachers who get injured on the job by a student or parent would be eligible for up to a year of paid leave and benefits under legislation now under consideration in the state House.Nurse Practitioners are renewing their years-long push in Pennsylvania to practice independently of physicians, an authority recognized in more than two dozen other states and certain federal agencies. But attempts to advance legislation changing that rule in the commonwealth have repeatedly failed, despite broad bipartisan support. The State Department of Aging is awarding grants to over 400 Senior Community Centers in the Commonwealth totaling $3 million dollars.

What if your healthcare team already knew what happened during your hospital stay — before you even explained it? What if someone on your care team noticed you were struggling on a Saturday and simply showed up? In this episode, Jamie sits down with Christopher Laffey, Nurse Practitioner at Your Health, to break down what a truly connected, proactive model of care actually looks like when it's working. Christopher practices in North Charleston, SC, where his team — nurses, therapists, social workers, community health workers, and more — functions less like a traditional office practice and more like a living, breathing safety net woven around each patient's real life. What you'll hear in this episode: Why most patients are failing not because nobody cares, but because the system itself is fragmented — and what doing it differently actually looks like on a Tuesday morning The real difference between "patient-centered" as a marketing phrase and patient-centered as a daily practice (hint: it involves seeing the medication bottles on the kitchen table) A powerful real-life story of a bedbound patient whose caregiver suddenly disappeared — and how the team mobilized over a weekend, on their own time, to prevent a hospitalization The single mindset shift every clinician needs to make the transition from visit-based thinking to longitudinal care Why "value-based care" doesn't mean discounted care — it means the organization is accountable for your outcomes, not just your appointments If you've ever left a doctor's appointment feeling more confused than when you walked in, this episode will show you what healthcare can feel like when it's actually designed around you. www.YourHealth.Org

As the leader of the End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium, she brings a unique perspective shaped by decades of connection with hospice and palliative care nurses across the U.S. and around the world.

Michele Scarlet sits down with RN, Nurse Practitioner, and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner Connie Wade for an honest conversation about what 25 years inside the emergency room taught her about the limits of conventional medicine, why her own doctor told her she was not "sick enough" to treat, and how she finally healed the symptoms she had been "swiping away" for years. In this powerful Health Detective Podcast episode, Connie shares her personal journey through psoriasis, debilitating joint pain at 48, chronic reflux, daily ibuprofen use, estrogen dominance, heavy painful periods, more than 20 years of night shift, H. pylori, an overwhelmed liver and gallbladder, food sensitivities to her favorite foods, and a depleted gut microbiome. Together, Michele and Connie unpack how functional lab testing gave Connie the vindication she had been looking for, why she healed in three months once she addressed the root causes, and why she chose to keep working in the ER while building her functional health practice on the side. This episode dives deep into: Why her doctor said "she wasn't sick enough" and sent her home with ibuprofen The functional labs that finally explained her symptoms after years of being dismissed How 20 plus years of night shift flatlined her cortisol and disrupted her hormones H. pylori, food sensitivities, and the gut findings that changed everything Why psoriasis, joint pain, and heavy periods are not just "normal aging" The reframe that helped Connie cut gluten, sugar, and dairy without feeling deprived Why so many nurses are leaving bedside nursing and the third option most do not consider How to build a functional nursing side practice without leaving your license or your job Why going all in or all out of conventional medicine limits your reach as a clinician The four simple daily practices Connie recommends to every patient How to ask your family for support when you start your healing journey Michele and Connie also discuss why the body is constantly trying to send messages, why most of us swipe them away for years, and why functional lab testing catches dysfunction long before conventional labs ever turn "abnormal." If you are a woman struggling with joint pain, psoriasis, hormone imbalance, or symptoms your doctor keeps dismissing, or you are a nurse, NP, or clinician quietly exploring functional medicine as a career path, this episode will change how you view your body and what is possible.
May is Melanoma and Skin Cancer Awareness Month, and on this important episode of Fishing the DMV, I am joined by Mercy Viator, Dermatology Certified Nurse Practitioner, to talk about two of the most dangerous threats facing anglers, hunters, hikers, kayakers, campers, and outdoor people everywhere: skin cancer and ticks/Lyme disease.When most people think about outdoor danger, they usually think about bad weather, rough water, accidents, hooks, wildlife, or getting lost. But the truth is, two of the biggest long-term health risks for people who spend a lot of time outside are sun exposure that can lead to skin cancer and tick bites that can lead to Lyme disease. These are serious outdoor health risks that every angler, hunter, and outdoorsman needs to take seriously before their next trip.In this episode, we break down why preparation matters, how to better protect yourself, and why prevention should be part of your regular fishing, hunting, hiking, and outdoor routine. Anglers are especially exposed because we spend long hours on the water under direct sunlight, reflected UV rays, and constantly changing weather conditions. We discuss the importance of routine skin checks, early detection, sun safety, and making UV protection a non-negotiable part of your gear.Mercy shares insight on the right type of sunscreen for fishing, how often you should reapply it, what sun-protective clothing actually helps, and why wide-brim hats, face coverings, sunglasses, gloves, and lightweight UV gear should be treated just like rods, reels, tackle, life jackets, and safety equipment. Whether you're fishing a tournament, bank fishing a local pond, wading a river, kayaking, or spending all day on the boat, protecting yourself from the sun is one of the most important things you can do to stay healthy for the long run.We also dive into ticks and Lyme disease, another major threat for anyone who spends time outdoors across the Mid-Atlantic and beyond. If you fish from the bank, hike through wooded trails, hunt, camp, kayak, or walk through tall grass to reach your favorite spot, tick prevention needs to be on your radar. Lyme disease can have serious long-term effects, and we discuss practical steps you can take to reduce your risk, check yourself after outdoor adventures, and make sure you are prepared before heading outside.The goal of this episode is simple: help anglers, hunters, and outdoor people understand that preparation can make all the difference. You can't always control the sun, the weather, the woods, or the water, but you can control whether you wear the right clothing, use the right sunscreen, check for ticks, and build smart habits that protect your health.This episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves fishing, hunting, hiking, kayaking, camping, boating, or spending time outside. Protecting yourself from skin cancer and Lyme disease is not optional — it is part of being prepared.Topics covered in this episode include:Skin Cancer Awareness Month Melanoma prevention for anglers Why sun exposure is dangerous for fishermen Sun safety while fishing Best sunscreen habits for outdoor people UV fishing clothing and sun-protective gear Fishing hats, face masks, gloves, and sunglasses Why anglers should get routine skin checks Tick prevention for fishermen, hunters, and hikers Lyme disease awareness in the outdoors How to check yourself for ticks after fishing or hunting Outdoor safety tips for the Mid-Atlantic fishing communityWhether you fish the Potomac River, Shenandoah River, Susquehanna River, Chesapeake Bay, Lake Anna, Smith Mountain Lake, Buggs Island, the Upper James River, or your local pond, this episode is a reminder that protecting your health is part of being prepared on the water, in the woods, and anywhere the outdoors takes you.On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I am joined by Mercy Viator, Dermatology Certified Nurse Practitioner.

Heads up — this is Part 2 of Jamie's conversation with Jaclyn Taylor If you haven't heard Part 1 yet, go back and start there. It sets up everything we unpack today. Most healthcare teams are working hard. They're just not working together. And the patient is the one absorbing the cost. In this second half of the conversation, Jamie and Jaclyn move from the why into the how. What does it actually look like when a provider stops responding to today's schedule and starts managing an entire patient panel? How do you turn a community health worker, a pharmacist, a PT, and a social worker into one coordinated team instead of four parallel ones? And what's the difference between data that produces reports and data that produces decisions? You'll hear: Why "frequent touches" only work when they're connected — and how fragmented touches still land patients back in the hospital The quarterback model — what it actually means for a provider to own a patient's trajectory, not just their visit The shift from seeing patients to managing a population — and why most providers were never taught how Why we don't have a resource problem in healthcare — we have an orchestration opportunity How to use technology and data without drowning in either What "showing up" really means inside a system that isn't perfect yet This is the episode for anyone trying to lead change from inside a system that's still catching up.

In this urgent episode, host Amie Archibald-Varley sits down with Dr. Michelle Acorn, CEO of the Nurse Practitioners' Association of Ontario (NPAO), to rip the band-aid off a system that refuses to evolve. Dr. Acorn pulls no punches: Nurse Practitioners are trained, capable, and ready — and they're being held back by outdated policy, inadequate funding, and a government content to watch the primary care crisis deepen rather than act. What you'll hear in this episode: The full scope of what Ontario's inaction actually means for patients on the ground Why NPs remain one of the most underleveraged solutions in Canada's healthcare system The funding reforms and regulatory barriers that must be dismantled — now What a truly patient-centered, NP-inclusive system could look like — and the path to get there Why this moment is a turning point This is the conversation healthcare needs to have. The one that doesn't end with "we'll study it further." If you care about access to care, about equity, about a system that finally treats Nurse Practitioners as the leaders they are — this episode is required listening. Subscribe, share, and turn up the volume. The gritty truth can't wait. Update: The April 1st Deadline Has Come and Gone. Ontario's Patients Are Paying for It. The federal government drew a line in the sand: by April 1, 2026, provinces must ensure that medically necessary services delivered by Nurse Practitioners are publicly covered. Ontario blinked — and millions of patients are now left holding the bill. As reported by CBC News, Ontario failed to meet the federal deadline, leaving Ontarians without primary care and forcing them to pay out-of-pocket for services that should never cost them a dime. This isn't a bureaucratic hiccup. This is a political choice — and people without a family doctor are the ones suffering the consequences. The Gritty Nurse isn't here for polite conversation. We're here to start the revolution. More About Dr. Michelle Acorn Dr. Acorn has over 35 years of nursing, health systems and leadership expertise. NP Acorn transitioned to her NPAO CEO role in 2024.

What if every "non-compliant" patient was actually a signal that the system isn't working for them? In this episode, Jamie sits down with Jaclyn Taylor, Clinical Strategy Director at Your Health and a nurse practitioner who started her career as a home-based provider in 2020 — thrown straight into the fire of COVID, isolated patients, and a healthcare world rewriting itself in real time. What she saw inside patients' homes — medications scattered on tables, food insecurity, missing transportation — changed how she thinks about every chart she's ever read. You'll hear: Why a nurse-first pathway gives nurse practitioners a fundamentally different lens than a medical school pathway — and why patients feel it What working across home care, telehealth, trauma, and wellness teaches you about treating the whole human, not just the diagnosis Why trauma surgery turned Jacqueline into a believer in proactive, longitudinal care — and what gets missed when we only meet patients after something has already gone wrong The two words she uses to describe what's most broken in traditional healthcare: fragmentation and misalignment How empathy stops being a poster and starts being operational — built into the design of care itself If you've ever felt invisible inside the healthcare system, or if you're the one trying to fix it, this conversation reframes the whole game.

In this episode, I sit down with nurse practitioner Danielle Brandt to talk about the misconceptions around testosterone for women and why the conversation is way more nuanced than social media makes it seem. We cover common signs of low testosterone in perimenopause, the different therapy options available, who might benefit, and how to know if it's actually something worth considering for you. If you've been curious about testosterone but also overwhelmed by all the conflicting information online, this conversation will help you think about it in a much more informed way. Here's what you'll learn: - Why testosterone gets labeled a “male hormone” and why that's misleading - The role testosterone plays in energy, mood, libido, and muscle for women - Signs your testosterone might be low (that you might be brushing off) - Why you can feel “off” even if your labs are technically “normal” - The barriers women face when trying to even test or treat low testosterone - Different ways testosterone is used (creams, gels, injections, etc.) - Pros and cons of each option (and what to consider) - How to have a better, more informed conversation with your provider - Why testosterone might be the missing piece for some women Subscribe: https://carrotsncake.substack.com Join Fit + Fueled: https://carrots-n-cake.mykajabi.com/fit+fueled Connect with Tina Haupert: https://carrotsncake.com/ Facebook: Carrots 'N' Cake https://www.facebook.com/carrotsncake Instagram: @carrotsncake https://www.instagram.com/carrotsncake YouTube: Tina Haupert https://www.youtube.com/user/carrotsncake About Tina Haupert: Tina Haupert is the owner of Carrots ‘N' Cake as well as a Certified Nutrition Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).

As the founder of Sparq Health, my mission is simple: to help you feel strong, energized, and truly alive—at every stage of life. My journey into advanced health optimization didn't start in a textbook—it started in my own body. Over 20 years ago, I hit a breaking point. I was exhausted, achy, foggy, and loaded with autoimmune markers, yet no doctor could tell me why. I trusted the system, but when conventional medicine had no answers, I took matters into my own hands and turned to functional medicine. Eventually, I was diagnosed with Lyme disease. Through a year of relentless dedication—dialing in my nutrition, optimizing lifestyle habits, and experimenting with nutraceuticals and alternative therapies like red light therapy—I reclaimed my health. That experience opened my eyes to what's possible when we treat the root cause, not just mask symptoms. Fast forward 15 years, and I found myself in another health crisis. After multiple miscarriages, I had my son at 42 (thank you, progesterone therapy!), but the fatigue that followed wasn't just from sleepless nights. For two years, I battled debilitating exhaustion, body vibrations, palpitations, crushing headaches, and an eerie sense of detachment. Music, chocolate, the outdoors—my favorite things—felt joyless. I knew something was severely wrong, but once again, conventional medicine had nothing for me except a handful of prescriptions.
To meet the demands of modern, high-intensity warfare, the U.S. Army Reserve must remake itself --"Army Reserve 4.0"-- is the finding of an Army War College integrated research project. Steve Trynosky discussed this study with authors Kiona Pritchard, Brandon Collins, and Colleen Vermeulen. They found the Army Reserve is in a "readiness trap" caused by spreading insufficient infrastructure and budget across too many formations. To address this, the team proposes a tiered readiness model: "Ready Now" for immediate response, "Expand Tomorrow" for operational depth, and "Endure Always" for a long-term strategic reserve. Beyond structural changes, the authors advocate for a "unified culture" through increased cross-pollination, such as embedding Reserve officers in active-duty units and vice versa. By offering flexible service options tailored to diverse civilian lifestyles, the Army Reserve can better retain top talent and remain an indispensable partner to the joint force in future peer conflicts. One of the things that we see here at the Army War College and out across the broader force—it's considered okay as an active duty officer to not be familiar with the reserve component. And that's a problem because the reserve components, plural, make up roughly 50% of the force. Brandon Collins is an Army lieutenant colonel and was commissioned as a Military Intelligence Officer in 2006 from Officer Candidate School and has held an array of assignments in both the Regular Army and Army Reserve, to include, most recently, CJ2X Director for Combined Joint Task Force-OIR in Baghdad, Iraq. LTC Collins holds a Juris Doctor from South Texas College of Law – Houston; a Master's Degree in Global and International Studies from the University of Kansas, and a Bachelor's Degree in Communications from Stephen F. Austin State University. He is a member of the AY26 Resident Course at the U.S. Army War College. Kiona Pritchard is a colonel and an Army Nurse Corps Officer commissioned in 2005 through the Army ROTC Green to Gold Program following several years of active duty enlisted service. She began her career in the Regular Army and later transferred to the Army Reserve becoming a Nurse Practitioner. COL Pritchard has held a variety of command, clinical, and staff assignments, most recently as Commander of the 10th Battalion, 108th Regiment, an Army Reserve instructor unit for medical non-commissioned officer professional military education and enlisted medical MOS qualification courses. Kiona holds a Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Cincinnati and Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Portland. She is a member of the AY26 Resident Course at the U.S. Army War College. Colleen Vermeulen is a colonel who earned her commission as an Army Engineer Officer from ROTC in 2004. She has held a diverse range of command and staff assignments in both the Regular Army and Army Reserve, to include, Reserve Command Engineer for Special Operations Command South and Commander, 3rd Battalion, 330th Infantry Regiment, a unique Army Reserve unit missioned to deliver Infantry One Station Unit Training. COL Vermeulen holds both a Master of Divinity and Master of Nonprofit Administration from the University of Notre Dame as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Government from Cornell University. She is a member of the AY26 Resident Course at the U.S. Army War College. Stephen Trynosky is the John Parker Chair of Reserve Component Studies at the U.S. Army War College and earned his commission as a Medical Service Corps Officer from ROTC in 1998. He has held a diverse range of command and staff assignments in both the Regular Army and Army Reserve, to include, most recently, Senior Advisor, Professional Military Education, Office of the Secretary of War; and Commander, 993rd Medical Detachment (Veterinary Service Support). COL Trynosky holds both Juris Doctor and Master of Public Health degrees from the State University of New York at Buffalo, as well as a Master of Military Art and Science from the U.S. Army School of Advanced Military Studies and a BA in history from Saint Peter's College. He is a graduate of the AY23 Resident Course at the U.S. Army War College. Photo Credit: Created by Gemini

So many Canadian small towns have lost their only doctor. But when this happened in Wembley, Alberta, two nurse practitioners stepped in thanks to new provincial legislation allowing NPs to run their own clinics and bill the province directly, as a family doctor would. Though doctors' organizations are pushing back, patients in Wembley are thrilled with this new model of primary care.

Together, they explore: The unique needs of midlife women The role of retreats in holistic healing and transformation The challenges of building a retreat business from the ground up The unexpected rewards and growth that come from hosting retreats This conversation is honest, grounded, and inspiring - whether you're a retreat leader, thinking about starting a retreat business, or simply someone who believes in the power of community and connection. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why midlife women are seeking retreats and community more than ever • How holistic retreats support mental, emotional, and physical well-being • The real challenges of building a retreat business • The unexpected rewards of hosting retreats • How retreats create lasting connection and transformation Key Takeaways Midlife Women Are Seeking Something Deeper This stage of life often brings reflection, transition, and a desire for more alignment.

Retreats Are More Than a Getaway Holistic retreats offer: community connection healing self-discovery They create experiences that go far beyond relaxation. Building a Retreat Business Isn't Easy - But It's Worth It The founders of SOL Women share the real side of building a retreat business: the challenges the learning curve the unexpected growth And also the rewards that make it all worthwhile. The Power of Community One of the most impactful aspects of retreats is the connection created between participants. Women leave feeling: seen supported understood And that ripple effect continues long after the retreat ends. About SOL Women & Lauren & Nandita SOL Women creates holistic retreat experiences designed specifically for midlife women. Their retreats focus on supporting women through life transitions with a blend of wellness practices, community connection, and personal growth. Nandita Mahadevan is a multi-industry business leader, Functional Medicine enthusiast, and Certified Health & Hormone Coach with a deep passion for women's health. After two decades climbing the corporate ladder in the health and wellness industry, she found herself burned out—her adrenals depleted, her health suffering. This wake-up call led her on a profound journey of self-discovery, pushing her to rethink wellness beyond just the clinical approach. Her passion for women's health peaked during her own transition into perimenopause when she struggled to find the support she needed. While her background in Functional Medicine helped her understand the physical changes, the emotional and spiritual upheaval was something she had to navigate alone. This experience sparked the creation of Sol Women—a space dedicated to guiding women through all stages of womanhood, from hormones and health to emotional and spiritual well-being. Nandita lives in Bee Cave, Austin, with her two children, ages 13 and 8. Lauren Colletti, FNP, is a Nurse Practitioner and Board-Certified Functional Medicine expert with a deep passion for women's health. With nearly 20 years in healthcare, she has helped thousands of women navigate hormonal shifts, thyroid and digestive issues, autoimmunity, fertility, menopause, and more. Trained by leading experts in women's health, genomics, peptides, and longevity medicine, Lauren is dedicated to simplifying the health journey and helping women feel confident in their bodies at every stage of life—without the overwhelm. Her personalized, root-cause approach focuses on building a strong foundation while using cutting-edge therapies to create lasting wellness. She believes women deserve more than one-size-fits-all solutions—they deserve to feel heard, understood, and empowered. As a wife and mother to three beautiful children—Hazel, Harrison, and Holland—Lauren is continually inspired by her patients and community. She is on her own journey to thrive through every phase of life and is passionate about helping others do the same.
