This episode is different. It's sacred. The Transgender Day of Remembrance is a day to honor and remember the transgender people whose lives were stolen by violence, hatred, and neglect. We wish we didn't need a day like this. We wish the world were already safe and affirming for our trans family and friends. But the reality is, many lives are lost each year—and too often, those lives are ignored, erased, or dismissed. So today, we stop. We pause. We remember. We honor. Send us a private message. *Note: INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS if you'd like us to answer. :-) Support the show

She also gives practical, doable strategies to help you sleep better, lower stress, and finally feel like your body is working with you again.This is the episode every high-achieving woman needs because rest isn't indulgence.

In this "Rewind & Reflect" (previously published) episode, we dive deep into the holistic health practices that empower entrepreneurs to not just survive—but thrive. We explore why self-care is a critical pillar for sustainable success, how rest isn't a luxury but a strategy, the transformative power of self-love and inner work, the role of discipline as a self-respect practice, and the importance of maintaining physical well-being when you're in the driver's seat of your business. Our guest is the insightful and compassionate therapist Jenay Hicks (MS, LPC, NCC). Jenay believes fundamentally in the human capacity to self-actualize—meaning to reach our fullest potential—and works with clients to clarify their “why” and navigate paths toward deeper fulfillment both personally and professionally. She highlights how many high-achievers look like they've “got it all together” on the outside, yet are running on fumes underneath—masking exhaustion and anxiety in the name of performance. Whether you're building a startup, scaling your service business, or leading a creative venture, this episode offers you the tools and mindset to reimagine success: one where your health, purpose, and profit all rise together.

The UK's consumer healthcare industry association, PAGB is publishing a series of blog posts for Self-Care Week – an annual awareness campaign in the UK organized by the Self Care Forum, held this year from 17-23 November. In this second part of a special episode of HBW Insight's Over the Counter podcast, we catch up with the association's CEO Michelle Riddalls, to talk about what the association is doing to promote digital health. As part of the UK government's plans for reforming the country's National Health Service, PAGB is asking for the widely used UK NHS app to not only advise people on how to self-care but also to take users to OTC brand websites that can help them to self-manage their conditions appropriately. We also discuss the advantage of having digital apps and self-care information generally linked to trusted umbrella brands. Timestamps 2:00 – PAGB's digital health strategy 6:00 – The NHS app and self-care brands 12:00 – Self-care apps 15:30 – The importance of brands Guest Bio Michelle Riddalls OBE is chief executive officer of PAGB, the consumer healthcare association, which represents the manufacturers of branded OTC medicines, self-care medical devices and food supplements in the UK. Prior to joining PAGB, Riddalls was director of regulatory affairs for the Northern European Cluster at Pfizer Consumer Healthcare, where she was integral in the highly successful POM to GSL reclassification of Nexium Control and the Viagra Connect POM to P switch. Michelle has been recognized across a number of industry awards, including the Women in Trade Powerlist in 2024, and was awarded an OBE for outstanding services to consumer health in the King's 2025 New Year Honours.

Sometimes, the kindest thing you can do for your nervous system isn't to rest—it's to move. This episode is for the ones who don't relate to overachieving or overfunctioning because they're on the other end of the spectrum: the stuck, the shut down, the ones who can't seem to get going no matter how much they want to.If motivation feels impossible and even small tasks feel like climbing a mountain, this episode will help you understand why—and how to begin again with gentleness and devotion instead of shame.In this episode, you'll learn:Why low energy, lack of motivation, and “laziness” are actually physiological responses, not character flawsThe nervous system science behind shutdown and how it traps you in inactionWhy waiting for motivation doesn't work—and what to do insteadHow to reclaim the word discipline as an act of devotion, not punishmentThe 5-Minute Win: a simple practice to help you break inertia and start rebuilding energy3 Takeaways: For a shut-down system, discipline is self-care. Gentle action—one small, consistent thing—is the medicine that restores motion and energy.Motivation is the result, not the prerequisite. Waiting to “feel like it” keeps you stuck. Taking one tiny action is the jumpstart that recharges your system.Reframe discipline as devotion. It's not a drill sergeant yelling “get up,” it's the loving inner parent or part saying, “Let's do one small thing together because you deserve to feel better.”—Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE discovery call for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program (HSA/FSA eligible & includes comprehensive bloodwork)Join me inside Regulated Living, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space (sliding scale pricing available)Order my book, Healing Through the Vagus Nerve today!*Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

On this episode of “Tommy Talk,” Tommy dives into a question so many of us wrestle with the moment that reunion invitation lands in our inbox: Should I actually go to my high school reunion… or skip it entirely? High school is a complicated chapter for most of us, filled with big moments, awkward phases, unforgettable friendships, and a few memories we’d rather not revisit. So is it worth the small talk, the curiosity, the nostalgia, or maybe even the rekindling of old connections? Let’s break it down.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Show SummaryNatalie Elliott Handy, a caregiver for her husband and mother and co-host of the Confessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Podcast. During our conversation, we share the commitment that she and her sister have to highlighting and supporting military connected caregivers. Provide FeedbackAs a dedicated member of the audience, we would like to hear from you about the show. Please take a few minutes to share your thoughts about the show in this short feedback survey. By doing so, you will be entered to receive a signed copy of one of our host's three books on military and veteran mental health. About Today's GuestNatalie is someone who genuinely loves people. She has a natural passion for meeting new faces, staying closely connected with family, friends, and colleagues, and, most of all, helping others. Anyone who knows her will readily say, “Natalie doesn't know a stranger.” It's simply who she has always been.Raised in her family's hardware store, Natalie learned early how to engage customers — and how to count change — by talking to everyone who walked through the door. At church, she was the first to volunteer to sing, recite Bible verses in “big church,” and attend every youth activity, especially lock-ins. In school, her teachers often placed her in the front row to help minimize “distractions,” because she was, without a doubt, a social butterfly.Those gifts — her ability to connect, her quick wit, and her desire to support others — naturally led her into leadership roles throughout her career in the mental health field. She married young at 21 and, many years later, again at 39. She often describes her first marriage as a light-hearted “practice run” with someone kind, but not Jason, the partner she shares her life with today.From the outside, Natalie's life looked picture-perfect: a fulfilling job, a loving husband, a close-knit support system, and of course, her beloved dogs. But behind the scenes, she was burning the candle at both ends — working 12-hour days, six days a week, answering every request with, “No problem. Happy to help.”Everything shifted when Jason was diagnosed with cancer in March 2022. In the midst of that crisis, Natalie confronted the truth that she couldn't keep living at that pace. During those darkest moments, she reconnected with her faith and, through that, rediscovered her true self. She learned to acknowledge her imperfections and, more importantly, to love herself fully — flaws and all.Today, Natalie has reordered her life with clear priorities: God, herself, Jason, family and friends, and then work. She says “no” far more often, seeks silver linings in difficult moments, and is grateful for the journey that led her to live God's plan instead of her own. She embraces the mantra of being “perfectly imperfect.”Her mission is simple: to share stories and experiences that inspire, uplift, and — whenever possible — spark a little laughter. She strives to encourage others to be true to themselves while supporting the people they love. And along the way, she fully intends to keep making new friends.Links Mentioned During the EpisodeConfessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Website2024 Heroes Caring for Heroes series2023 Heroes Caring for Heroes seriesPsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's PsychArmor Resource of the Week is the PsychArmor course course Understanding the VA for Caregivers.

In this refreshing, real-life conversation, Christina and Brittany dive into the beautiful chaos of modern womanhood — the family dynamics, the travel planning, the messy moments, and the unexpected wins that shape personal growth.With honesty and humour, they unpack the importance of self-care, the pressure of social media, and the relief of stepping back when life feels overstimulating. From the realities of planning travel in 2025 to the thrill of scoring luxury deals, they show that life's highs and lows often happen in the same breath.They also explore how AI, inbox overwhelm, and digital boundaries impact mental health — and why authenticity matters more than ever.

In today's episode, Gina shares her wisdom surrounding the topic of menopause, perimenopause and how these times can bring with them substantial shifts in women's nervous systems. Many women experiences substantial changes in their experience of anxiety around this midlife change, some for better, some for worse. The physiological changes of the body and brain are discussed, as are the mental changes that accompany them, and also the steps you can take to support yourself through this journey.

As we explore this vital subject, I emphasize the uniqueness of each individual's journey through hormonal shifts, whether during perimenopause, menopause, or even monthly cycles. Recognizing the natural ebb and flow of hormonal changes, I reassure listeners that they are not "broken" or "losing it"—rather, their bodies are in a transformative phase, prompting a deeper understanding and connection to self.I lay the foundation by discussing the physiological impacts of fluctuating hormone levels and outline how these changes can manifest as various emotional and physical sensations. The transition can trigger new feelings of anxiety, identity crises, and insights into how one's life roles have evolved. It's essential to approach these transitions with curiosity, as understanding the interplay between hormones, stress, and emotional well-being can empower women during this compelling time.Commencing with an intimate exploration of the effects of estrogen and progesterone, I highlight how these hormones influence mood and anxiety levels. Listeners are encouraged to recognize that increased anxiety during these transitions is not a sign of weakness but rather a normal physiological response. I present practical strategies for self-care, including breathing techniques and grounding exercises, to help ease anxiety and cultivate a nurturing relationship with oneself. By advocating for slow exhale breathing, comforting mantras, and gentle physical practices, I offer tools that can aid women in navigating this sensitive phase with grace.#Perimenopause, #Menopause, #MidlifeAnxiety, #HormonalAnxiety, #WomensHealth, #TheChangeOfLife, #AnxietyRelief, #MidlifeTransition, #Recalibration, #IdentityShift, #Estrogen, #Progesterone, #NervousSystem, #StressManagement, #PrioritizeSleep, #SelfCare, #SetBoundaries, #GABA, #SlowExhale, #YouAreNotBroken, #GinaRyan, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #ChristianeNorthrup, #FemininePower, #NotLosingIt, #AnxietySupport, #MentalWellness, #StressRelief, #MindBodyConnection, #LifeTransitions, #SelfCompassion, #NervousSystemRegulation, #EmotionalHealth, #HealthJourney, #PersonalGrowth, #SelfHelp, #InnerPeace, #Midlife, #HormoneHealth, #WellbeingJourney, #DeepBreathing, #GroundingTechniques, #MentalClarity, #Recalibration, #ItsOkayToStruggle, #FindingYourCenter, #PodcastForAnxiety, #AuthenticSelf, #ChangingRhythms #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this curated episode of the Revenue Builders Podcast, we talk burnout with Marcy Stoudt, CEO and co-founder of Revel Coach. Marcy helps leaders avoid burnout and become their best selves without sacrificing success in either area. In this segment, she covers a few tips for avoiding burnout.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:27] Burnout affects individuals beyond just moms, particularly leaders who lose perspective and struggle to lead effectively when overwhelmed.[00:01:45] Your attitude towards upcoming challenges greatly influences burnout; maintaining a positive mindset is key.[00:02:25] Adopt a daily practice of living "above the line," clarifying your vision and taking action aligned with your desired self.[00:04:36] Recognize and address negative events and emotions that contribute to burnout, working to stay "above the line."[00:05:55] Clear clutter from your schedule, aligning commitments with your vision of success and avoiding unnecessary tasks.HIGHLIGHT QUOTES[00:01:03] "There's a fine line between working too hard and being addicted... It's real and you can't generically say how to prevent it."[00:02:47] "Living above the line... You're defining who you want to be more often."[00:05:19] "Clearing clutter from her calendar is really important and just doing it to align to her vision of success with no comparison."[00:07:34] "Being honest with yourself about the addiction... my inability to extricate myself... became a self-fulfilling prophecy."Listen to the full episode with Marcy Stoudt through this link:https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/mastering-work-life-balance-with-marcy-stoudtCheck out John McMahon's book here:Amazon Link: https://a.co/d/1K7DDC4Check out Force Management's Ascender platform here: https://my.ascender.co/Ascender/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

​I remember the very slow realization as I started to embody my binges that food was never going to give me what I was looking for. It felt crushing to face. I'd been utilizing food as a way to try to help myself feel better, safer, more grounded and I felt so much grief that this strategy was never going to work.Over the years in private practice, I noticed almost every single person I worked with experience this moment of deep grief. I now have a term for this called Food Grief. Food recovery is a process of saying goodbye to strategies that worked as a child and no longer work now as an adult.Grieving any food coping mechanism is feeling the body unlearning an old survival pattern. Food Grief is your body reorienting to the present and that you no longer need to protect yourself like you did in the past.In this week's episode, I chat with Syanna Wand, Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and founder of Interpersonal Embodied Healing about: Understanding grief in healingThe somatic concept of armoringNavigating grief and reliefThe importance of resourcing yourselfBuilding capacity to be with your emotionsGenerational griefEmbracing grief and creating a relationship with itYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/grief-is-crucial-for-trauma-recoveryReminder that my Somatic Eating® Intensive is on sale for 30% off until Tuesday, December 2nd. ​Purchase with the coupon code SEI30! https://www.stephaniemara.com/learn#coursesWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Syanna: Website: www.syannawand.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/syannawand/ Email: sy@syannawand.comSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Self-care is not the same as comfort, indulgence, or avoidance. Self-care comes from a life aligned with God in healthy rhythm. You need rest, you need play, you need laughter. But you also need structure, discipline, and purpose.

What Questions Should You Ask Yourself About Your Own Self-Care?Stop – Listen – ActSTOP:Pause. Sit yourself down. This is your grounding point — the moment you give yourself permission to be instead of do.LISTEN:Ask yourself: “What do I need right now?”Is the need physical (rest, nourishment, movement)?Emotional (support, comfort, expression)?Mental (clarity, quiet, stimulation)?ACT:Honor the answer.Whatever the need is — meet it.

Have you made any excuses lately?I'm too tired.I'll do it later.I don't have time right now.We've all done it.This week, on Episode #178 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we're talking about self-talk, self-care, and the excuses we all make … something that feels especially real this time of year.You know the feeling — the days get shorter, our energy dips, the to-do list grows, and suddenly everything feels a little heavier. And in the middle of all that, our excuses start popping up… sometimes loud, sometimes subtle, sometimes surprisingly reasonable.Instead of shaming ourselves for our excuses, start seeing them as messages. Are we actually avoiding something, or are we genuinely tired? Is it really about time… or is it about energy?We also get into how our self-talk shapes those moments — that inner voice that pushes us one minute and pampers us the next. When we slow down and really listen to it, things start to make more sense and feel less like a battle with ourselves.So, notice your self-talk, listen to your excuses with curiosity, and let self-care be a steady rhythm — not another task. Being present with yourself is enough.Lorrie xoxoxOn this episode:FREE Fit, Fearless & Fabulous Holiday Planning Guide: Find it hereLoving the show? Let's connect!

The last time he was on we discussed how the system is 100% of the problem and solutions.     Today we discussed advocacy and when people should begin to advocate. Through trauma to self-care, healing oneself is the answer, then advocacy should follow.     Mother's rights, father's rights were discussed and how there should be unity and not division.To Reach Dave Weigel:  Facebook: Family Court Fraud Warrior Project and help@fraudwarrior.orgSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

Episode 2723 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss adding protein to processed foods, GLP-1s, and how it's all "lipstick on a pig." https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/11/lipstick-on-a-pig-episode-2723 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Lipstick On A Pig Vinnie and Chris have been working hard on manufacturing challenges. (3:00) There is a change in marketing around diet. (10:00) Pop-Tarts is claiming it has a high-protein version. They review the ingredients list. (15:30) It's essential to develop the persistence to achieve the success you want. (24:00) Other junk foods, such as Doritos, add protein. But don't be fooled! Adding protein to crappy food doesn't make the crappy food "healthy." (25:00) It's just putting "lipstick on a pig"! Metabolic damage can be seen in just a few short weeks when eating ultra-processed foods. (26:30) Chris discusses a study on weight gain from consuming ultra-processed foods. (27:00) Even if a brand you have used before has clean ingredients, you need to be vigilant and keep checking the ingredients, since companies will often add things that aren't good, such as seed oils. (33:00) California has claimed it will be ridding school lunches of junk food, but it is spreading the goal out over several years. (38:00) There Are Choices GLP-1s are now available as oral medication, but do they cause the same effect as the injectable ones? (49:30) The same dose is marketed as "similar." (51:00) People who have followed and stuck to NSNG have gotten off multiple medications. Personally, Vinnie stays away from certain meds, including hormones, because he wants to avoid a recurring cancer. (53:00) There are often a lot of things you can do before you turn to meds in many cases. (55:00) Proper nutrition, exercise (especially weight training), and things like vitamin D and magnesium help! Vinnie gives an example of how he has naturally improved his testosterone levels. You have to actually push yourself beyond a certain comfort level to see and feel a difference. (1:02:30) Sarcopenia happens to everyone, but you can absolutely fight it.

Send us a textSauce Mackenzie keeps it all the way real about men, women, and grooming. No performative “internet gender wars”—just grown conversation. We start with why bashing women online is weak, then flip it into a real question for the ladies: do you actually prefer a well-groomed man? And where's the line? Weekly haircuts, manicures and pedicures, dry-cleaned fits, lotions and fragrance—what's too much, what's just right, and what's mandatory?Sauce breaks down his personal code (weekly cuts, clean nails, pressed clothes) and asks the room about eyebrows, facials, beard dye, and the big one: could you date a man with a hair unit? Is that any different than wigs, weaves, or veneers? Let's talk double standards, confidence, and why self-care should be for you—not the internet.He also checks us on bankroll discipline after a rough parlay night—proof that greed is the real villain. Slow flips, one good pick at a time. And he closes with real life game: hygiene > hype. Floss, shower, stay fresh, carry yourself with pride, and the right energy (and partner) will meet you where you are.Tap in, drop your take in the comments, and keep it respectful—this one's about growth, confidence, and better habits for men and women.Support the show

Kelley, a Woven client and Mental Health Counselor, joined me today to talk about her journey working with Woven Natural Fertility Care to make sense of her cycles and the effects of PCOS, but the conversation took a truly meaningful turn as we talked about the significance of understanding our mental, physical, and spiritual creation and how that impacts how we understand our female design. It was so rich that we've broken the episode into two parts so you wouldn't miss out on it. We explore the role of faith, the impact of mental health, the daily effects of irregular cycles, and more in this episode. It's a must-listen! In today's episode, we focus more on the mental health affects and spiritual benefits of cycle charting.NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences.HELPFUL RESOURCES:Ep. 15: Dealing with fertility-focused anxiety, with Ashley Yeager, LCSWEp. 101: Medical trauma in fertility with Rebecca Henderson, LCSWFertility Trauma Resource from Woven Send us a textSupport the showOther great ways to connect with Woven Natural Fertility Care: Learn the Creighton Model System with us!

As I'm hearing more and more stories of therapists on the struggle bus right now, I thought it would be a good time to reflect on my own personal self-care routine. Some of my takes are a bit unconventional, so they may not be the best fit for everyone. But I hope listening to this episode encourages you to reflect on your own self-care, so you can be intentional about building a sustainable, enjoyable life as a therapist. :)Video: “Redefining Self Care for Therapists”https://youtu.be/HQfPpe1XW4QLINKS:*Some links are affiliate links.

Self-care isn't about luxury or vanity, it's about choosing to invest in your health, confidence, and longevity. In this video, we explore the self-care mindset for longevity and why people who choose to take care of their appearance often take the first step toward caring for their internal health too. From cosmetic treatments like Botox, fillers, and skin rejuvenation to wellness services like hormone therapy, regenerative medicine, and sleep optimization, self-care is about supporting how you feel, not just how you look. When you start feeling better on the outside, your mindset shifts. You begin asking deeper questions: How can I live longer? How can I age well? How can I protect my heart, brain, skin, and overall vitality? You'll learn how this self-care mindset for longevity influences lifestyle, aging, regenerative treatments, and why many of these services aren't covered by insurance, not because they're unnecessary, but because they go beyond disease care and into prevention and health span.Want to explore how self-care can improve your long-term health and wellness?

By exploring the 'what-if mind,' we unpack how these relentless thoughts can spiral into overwhelming anxiety. The discussion centers on recognizing where our concerns originate, often rooted in our instinct to protect ourselves. While our minds are hardwired to anticipate dangers and potential problems, this survival mechanism can easily turn into an exhausting cycle of worry.The show emphasizes that these what-ifs can feel convincing and powerful, often painting scenarios that never materialize while neglecting positive outcomes. This pattern leads to a narrowed perspective, amplifying fear beyond reality. I stress the importance of not fighting or suppressing these thoughts but rather acknowledging their presence and gently guiding the mind back to the present—where our true power lies.Throughout the episode, I share strategies to help listeners identify and manage their what-if thoughts. The key is early recognition—skills that can be cultivated over time. I discuss the significance of labeling anxious thoughts as they arise, reframing them to acknowledge that they are simply future predictions and not current facts. This technique enables listeners to replace anxiety with grounding affirmations and return to their breath, thereby reclaiming their calm.#AnxietyRelief, #FutureAnxiety, #Overthinking, #WorryLess, #CalmYourMind, #WhatIfs, #AnxietySupport, #StressRelief, #AnxietyAwareness, #AnxietyTips, #EmotionalWellness, #QuietMind, #Mindfulness, #PresentMoment, #ReturnToNow, #BeHereNow, #BePresent, #MindfulLiving, #InTheMoment, #MindfulnessPractice, #CalmMind, #PeaceOfMind, #GuidedMeditation, #MeditationPractice, #BreathingExercises, #Breathwork, #Grounding, #Mantra, #Affirmations, #DailyMeditation, #MeditationJourney, #MindfulBreathing, #MentalHealth, #MentalHealthMatters, #SelfCare, #SelfLove, #PersonalGrowth, #InnerPeace, #Wellness, #Wellbeing, #Healing, #EndTheStigma, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #GinaRyan, #AnxietyCoach, #LifeCoach, #WellnessPodcast, #Coaching, #PodcastLife. #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When we protect the pace of childhood, everyone in the family heals. In this illuminating conversation, Dr. Natasha Beck—also known as Dr. Organic Mommy—shares how slowing down, simplifying, and removing hidden toxins from our homes can transform not just our kids' health, but our own. Diagnosed as a child with ADHD and dyslexia, Dr. Beck eventually uncovered how diet, environment, and overstimulation were shaping her well-being. Now a pediatric neuropsychologist, she helps families create calmer, more connected lives through practical changes—like her two-week “fragrance-free” challenge that has surprised even the most skeptical parents. (Follow her work on Instagram, Substack, and her podcast When Millennials Become Moms.) From food choices and slow tech habits to the Waldorf philosophy and her “Three S's” framework—sleep, sugar, and screens—Dr. Beck and Ginny Yurich explore how a developmentally appropriate childhood actually restores balance for parents too. This episode is both practical and freeing, showing that you don't need to overhaul your life overnight. One slow evening, one home-cooked meal, one outdoor day at a time—those small shifts might be the self-care your whole family has been missing. Learn more about your ad choices.

In fact, what the Bible does say about this is actually fully affirming!So today, we dig in and set the record straight about what the Bible doesn't say, what it does say, and why this matters so much right now!Send us a private message. *Note: INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS if you'd like us to answer. :-) Support the show
