Today we're diving into a conversation that I believe is long overdue. When couples begin trying to conceive, the spotlight almost always falls on the woman—her hormones, nutrition, cycle tracking, supplements, and lifestyle. But fertility has never been a one-person journey. I'm joined by Ronit Menashe, co-founder of WeNatal, a company that's changing the way we think about preconception by…
In this episode, we're finally sharing the news—we're expecting! We're taking you behind the scenes of our journey to pregnancy, what those first few weeks were really like, how we found out, and everything we've learned while navigating the first trimester. We also dive into how I've adjusted my training and workouts, the supplements I've continued (and changed), and some of the mindset shifts…
Your nervous system controls every function in your body—from how you move and sleep to how you digest, heal, and respond to stress. In this episode, we're exploring the connection between chiropractic care and nervous system health, how spinal dysfunction can impact overall wellness, and why optimizing nervous system function is about more than just relieving pain. Whether you're dealing with…
Today I am joined by Dr. Abby Kramer a trained Chiropractor and Medical Director at Fringe Heals. In this episode we’re talking about the current state of kids nutrition and why so many children’s supplements have turned into glorified candy loaded with sugar, dyes, artificial flavors, and unnecessary additives. We dive into how growing bodies need real nourishment—not just trendy marketing—and…
Have you noticed your skin changing in your late 30s or 40s? You're not alone.

In this episode, we're diving into the connection between hormones changes and skin health, why these changes happen, and how to support your body naturally through nutrition,…
Today we’re talking all about building a healthier relationship with the sun—without fear. I break down why I focus on gradually working up to sun exposure, prioritizing early morning and later afternoon sunlight, and paying attention to UV intensity rather than avoiding the sun altogether. We also discuss how I personally use the dminder app to monitor UV levels, estimate vitamin D production,…
This episode dives into why women deserve a far higher standard of care during pregnancy and postpartum. Pregnancy is one of the most nutrient-demanding phases of life, yet many women are entering it already depleted, stressed, undernourished, and running on empty. I discuss how inadequate nutrition may contribute to a more symptomatic pregnancy, harder recovery, hormone imbalances, blood sugar…
In this episode I sit down with Danielle Gronich, co-founder and formulator of CLEARSTEM — the acne + anti-aging skincare line I’ve genuinely been loving lately. We dive into Danielle’s personal acne healing journey, including how she navigated severe breakouts after coming off birth control and what ultimately helped her heal from the inside out. We also unpack some of the biggest root causes she…
There’s one gut bacterium getting a lot of attention in the research world—and for good reason. In this episode, we’re diving into Akkermansia muciniphila , a key microbe that plays a major role in gut lining integrity, metabolic health, and overall inflammation balance. Often referred to as a “beneficial” bacteria, Akkermansia has been linked to improved insulin sensitivity, weight regulation,…
Sound healing—especially sound baths—works by using acoustic vibrations to affect the body and mind. These sounds can actually influence brainwave patterns and the nervous system. Research shows that slow, rhythmic, low-frequency tones can help shift the brain into alpha and theta states, which are linked to deep relaxation and a calmer response to stress. This down regulation of the sympathetic…
