We made it. Welcome to episode one of It’s All Connected. Not gonna lie, this is actually my second attempt at recording episode one because apparently tech issues are a podcaster’s nightmare and, yep, I already hit it. But here we are — I’m officially a podcaster now!

I was supposed to launch this podcast back in December 2020, right after I found out I was pregnant with Rylo. But then hyperemesis decided to ruin my life (hi, puking 18 times a day). Then came birth, then motherhood, then building a business… and, well, life had other plans.

But I’m here now, and honestly? I want this podcast to feel like you pulled up a chair with your best friend to just shit talk, learn a little, and laugh a lot. Nothing too stiff, nothing too serious, just real talk.

Today, instead of diving into my “origin story” (we’ll save that for later), I wanted to share five things I’m doing right now to support my nervous system — because the world feels heavy as hell and I know I’m not the only one feeling it.

Here’s what’s been keeping me sane lately:

1. Walks – preferably on a crisp fall morning while I’m voice memo’ing my best friend Kim.
   
   
   
2. Baths – with Epsom salts or magnesium, because a hot skin-melt bath equals heaven.
   
   
   
3. Minerals – daily teas, adrenal mocktails, Re-Lyte, all the things.
   
   
   
4. Feel-good TV – because teenage romance drama on The Summer I Turned Pretty is sometimes exactly what my brain needs.
   
   
   
5. Bricking my damn phone – yep, I bought an actual phone brick to lock me out of apps at night.
   
   
   

The point is: no one is going to give a shit about you unless you give a shit about you. So take the damn walk, drink the tea, binge the show. Whatever it takes to care for your nervous system right now.
