In this episode of The Anchored to Wellness Show, we're getting honest about the end-of-day ritual—wine, sugar, Netflix, scrolling—and what it's really telling you. This isn't about blame. It's about signals. If your nightly wind-down is the only way to “turn off,” your body isn't weak—your resiliency tank is low and your nervous system is asking for help. We'll unpack: – Why we reach for it: the ritual that marks “I made it” (and why culture normalizes it) – What's happening under the hood: cortisol rhythm, blood sugar swings, sleep architecture, HRV – The dependency loop: why short-term relief drains tomorrow's capacity – Resiliency > willpower: how Reset → Repair → Rebuild restores calm, focus, and steady energy No shame, no scare tactics—just physiology you can work with and small shifts that rebuild capacity. ✨ Stop managing symptoms.

Text us a comment or question!We've all heard the saying, “You're the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” But have you ever stopped to really look at who's in your circle? In this week's Monday Mile edition of the Over 50 health & Wellness Show podcast, Coach Kevin and Coach Jess dive deep into one of the most overlooked (and most powerful) factors in your health journey - your community. Whether you realize it or not, your friends, family, and social circle are constantly shaping your habits, mindset, and motivation. Are your people calling you up - or pulling you back? 

In this episode of The Anchored to Wellness Show, we're talking about the age that actually matters—your biological age. Chronological age is candles on a cake; biological age is how resilient your systems are on the inside. Here's the bold truth: those “just getting older” symptoms—afternoon crashes, brain fog, restless nights, weight that won't budge—aren't inevitabilities. They're signals that your resiliency tank is running low. I'll walk you through the three biggest signs your biological age may be pulling ahead (and what to do about it): – Collapsing energy curve: what it means when mitochondria sputter and cortisol rhythm flattens – Losing your brain's edge: why fog, slower recall, and decision fatigue are early reserve warnings – Repair capacity failing: slower healing, more inflammation, and why “metabolic mess” accelerates aging You'll learn how anchoring rhythms, calming your nervous system, and supporting cellular repair can slow—or even reverse—the pace of biological aging. No shame, no scare tactics—just the truth your body has been trying to tell you and a path to rebuild resiliency. ✨ Stop managing symptoms. Mend the mess. Rebuild your resiliency.

In this episode of The Anchored to Wellness Show, I'm pulling back the curtain on one of the most overused—and misunderstood—phrases in health right now: root cause medicine. Here's the truth: conventional medicine saves lives. But functional medicine restores them. If you've ever been told “your labs are normal” while you still feel foggy, exhausted, or dismissed… this conversation is for you. I share why most of today's system stops at managing symptoms, how I personally experienced the gaps in care, and why I believe the real power lies in asking why. We'll walk through: – Why symptom management ≠ healing – How the Reset → Repair → Rebuild framework addresses roots, not just leaves – My personal journey with IBS and the shift that changed everything – The dangers of labels without answers (like dementia at 44) – What root cause medicine really means — and why it matters for your life This isn't just about buzzwords. It's about reclaiming your energy, your clarity, and your resiliency. ✨ Stop managing symptoms. Mend the mess. Rebuild your resiliency. Reclaim the Real You.

But everything changed when she joined the Silver Edge 21-Day Challenge in September 2023. Through small, achievable steps, Nicole discovered the importance of fueling her body properly, building strength through weight training, and embracing habits that promote metabolic health. She even shares how her newfound strength has transformed her daily life - from conquering stairs without fear to outlifting her 20-something son!
