Episode 336: The Lymphatic System: A Whole Body Approach to Healing with Dr. Perry Nickelston
Overcoming chronic pain requires an understanding of how different parts of the body (and the mind) influence each other in the healing process. Today’s podcast guest, Dr. Perry Nickelston, focuses on healing chronic pain and inflammation via the lymphatic and vascular systems. What this conversation emphasizes, however, is the fact that nothing heals in isolation.
Erin and Dr. Perry delve into why blood flow and lymphatic health are essential for the health of the rest of the brain/body (and visa versa), the importance of the vagus nerve, diaphragmatic breathing and how it keeps the lymphatic system pumping efficiently, the lymph and brain health, and more.

Episode 323: Be Your Own Health Expert & the Body-Belief Connection | Balanced Bites Podcast Interview
This episode is unlike any other we’ve ever released. Rather than Erin interviewing a guest… SHE is the one being interviewed! This interview on Liz Wolfe’s Balanced Bites Podcast was such a banger, we couldn’t resist sharing it with our audience.
Hear Erin talk about her experience with a serious autoimmune disease diagnosis (and remission), where functional medicine can miss the mark, how to self-source your healing, and how your body is always trying to keep you safe - even when things may seem to be going “wrong”.
Episode 322: #1 Way to Shift Your Energy NOW | Manifest Your Health Series
This week, Erin discusses how we can live in a hamster wheel of the same limited (usually negative) thoughts and beliefs day after day while wondering why nothing has changed. In order to live your biggest dreams (the ones you deserve, by the way), it’s important to start looking at and acknowledging the things that are working in your life. Erin leaves you with specific practices to help shift your energy into a healing frequency — immediately.

Episode 321: Neurobiology of Chronic Conditions | Manifest Your Health Series
Erin dives into the neurobiology behind chronic conditions like Long Covid, Epstein Barr virus, mold, and chemical sensitivities (so many more). The original infection can go away but the brain may still correlate those symptoms to the previous infection. Previously neutral symptoms like feeling tired or having a stomach ache can now communicate “I am still sick” to the mind and start a cascade of immune responses in the body. Learn different tools to calm down your nervous system so that you can begin to rewire your brain to look at the ways in which your body IS working.

Episode 320: Subconscious Mind’s Role in Healing Your Gut | Manifest Your Health Series
What if I told you the same programming that got you sick can also help you heal? In this episode, we dive into how our bodies and minds are always trying to keep us safe and how, at times, a belief that was once helpful may need to be updated. Learn how and why those with adverse childhood experiences (or ACEs) and trauma are more likely to experience chronic digestive, gut and health challenges and discover tangible resources to help shift from chronic stress into a rest and digest state. By getting out of the fear-based loop, you can change your biology (and use it to heal!)

Episode 309: IMPACT: A Non-Traditional Way to Build a Business
After launching podcast episode 307: Starting a Business from Scratch, Erin received a lot of questions about how she’s grown her successful multi-seven figure business in a way that’s not only highly profitable, but also deeply fulfilling.
This podcast is a live recording from the Manifest Your Wealth private group where Erin answers questions about her new program IMPACT. This program sheds light on how Erin grows a simple idea into a full blown program in a very non-traditional way - by using energy and a whole lot of self trust.
Big things coming soon! Manifest Your Wealth re-opens May 1st and IMPACT starts May 7th!
Episode 307: Starting a Business from Scratch
Erin answers the question, “If you had to start a business from scratch, what would be the first three things you would prioritize?” Erin covers the basic, more tangible topics, like starting an email list, networking with your existing community and getting confident speaking about what you offer. She also dives into more unpopular opinions, like getting started before you have everything perfect and avoiding niching down at the start. Although Erin mentioned three takeaways, you’ll get more than expected from this episode!
Enrollment for our spring cohort of the Funk’tional Nutrition Academy is now open & spaces are limited. Apply today!
Episode 302: Ambition & Adrenals | Why highly ambitious people burnout - and what we can do about it
Are you an entrepreneur or a highly ambitious person that seems to be stuck in the “go-go-go” mentality and may benefit from learning when and how to rein it in? If so, this episode is for you. Erin uncovers the common hormone imbalances she sees in highly ambitious people and how our culture fosters an environment for burnout. Erin explains tools to rewire your self-image and identity to ensure you put your body before your business.
Episode 299: Manifest Your Wealth: Money Mindset
Today’s episode is a bit different. Erin talks about how she renegotiated her relationship with money, receiving and abundance over the past 5 years. And how this allowed her to take her company from under 6 figures to over 7 figures in just a few short years. But don’t get it twisted - it’s not just about the money, it’s about the IMPACT that this has allowed TFN to create.
We all have money stories and narratives. We have a collective money story, based on the society we live in. We also have a personal money story, based on how we were raised, our upbringing and our own unique experiences in life. We need to look at both to understand why we believe what we believe – especially if we’re looking to create a new and different relationship with money and wealth.
There’s always room to improve your money mindset, and this episode is gonna get the ball rolling. To keep it going, join Erin in her brand new training series, Manifest Your Wealth.
Episode 298: Where Science Meets the Sacred
Here at TFN, we practice the Intuitive Functional Medicine™ model, meaning we utilize evidence-based practices… AND we also believe that YOU get to be the evidence. Because REAL power comes when we can use research, science and external data points, and allow that to coalesce with the sacred wisdom of our bodies. But what does that look like? And how do we get there? That’s what today’s episode is all about. Erin gets into the deep inner work that is an often overlooked, but very necessary, part of the healing process.
This is another sneak peek into The Funk’tional Nutrition Collective… before enrollment closes on 2/9!!
Episode 296: Supercharge Your Manifestations & Create Your Ideal Year

Erin also explains why breathwork is not just a tool for the mental, emotional AND energetic bodies, but also a way to supercharge your intentions and manifestations.
Episode 293: New Year, New Paradigm: How to Make Health a Priority in 2024
One of the most profound shifts we can make this year is to place our health at the top of our priority list. It's not just about reacting to health crises; it's about nurturing a consistent, proactive approach to our well-being. This means making time, space, and budget for our health, and recognizing that we are worth the investment.
Our latest episode challenges the status quo and invites you to build a new health paradigm. We're talking about prioritizing health, taking responsibility, and embracing our whole selves. Listen on to hear about the official launch of the Funk’tional Nutrition Collective – and exactly WHY Erin created it.
