Episode 102: Your Wellness Business in the Time of Covid
There is this collective freak out happening with most small business owners about what to do with their businesses moving forward. So, I’m talking about something different - business - which is why this is a bonus episode. I’m sharing some of what’s in my head, like how to be a leader and why you need to be a leader, what NOT to do on social media, where to invest your time, and what to watch out for. I also cover how my mid-pandemic program launch went. Tune in if you’re a small business owner!

Episode 99: Mixed Bag Episode - Weight Loss, Booze, Weighing Yourself, Bloating & More
I cover so many topics in this episode that’s impossible to give it a specific title! This is actually something I recorded as a part of the Carb Compatibility Project, where I offer Q&A sessions.

Episode 97: Optimizing Gut Health to Optimize Your Immune Function
This episode is all about optimizing your gut health and ultimately optimizing your immune function. This is a time in everyone’s lives where we know we want a strong and healthy immune system, but may not be sure how. What’s more - this is a perfect environment for ‘quarantine snacking’ and emotional eating, which may not be the best for our gut microbiome.. especially if you’re not sure what foods to eat + avoid! I cover all of this and much more, so have a listen if this sounds like you.

Episode 96: Breathwork for Resiliency with Robert van der Heyden
"The whole goal of this, besides inoculating your immune system & helping you transition from a fight-or-flight state to a more relaxed state, is you’re creating space for yourself.”
Robert van der Heyden is a resilience coach and he helps people to create more energy, better habits, and become resilient through movement, recovery training, and primarily breathwork. Tune in as we discuss why all stress isn’t bad, cultivating more presence, and how to create resiliency with a daily practice.

Episode 95: COVID-19 & Autoimmunity Mini-sode
In this ‘mini-sode’ at the start of the pandemic, there is a LOT of information flying around. For some who are looking for information, I’m covering auto-immunity with COVID - are you at a greater risk? And if so, how do you balance your immune system?

(and a 4 step plan on how to do it), herbs for coronavirus infection, and what’s up with elderberry syrup? Why isn’t it safe for COVID-19?
