On this episode of Everything's Messy Podcast,  👋 It’s been a minute since it’s just been me on the mic, and wow… I’ve got a spicy, controversial topic for you today. Before we get into it, though, I’ve got some incredible guests lined up—including the amazing Dr. Wendy Sellens (aka @estrogenfree  🩷). We’re going to dive into all things breast health, women’s health, and phytoestrogens soon—but today? We’re talking sunglasses.

Yep. Sunglasses.
 For decades, we’ve been told to grab our sunnies before stepping outside, but more and more experts are challenging that idea. I’m breaking down the growing conversation around what happens when we block our eyes from natural sunlight—and how that might be throwing off everything from our circadian rhythm to melanin production, hormone signaling, and even vitamin D synthesis.

☀️ Here’s what I get into:

• Why morning and evening sunlight is key for your body’s natural rhythm.
  
  
• How sunglasses can confuse your mitochondria and hormone signaling.
  
  
• What wellness voices like Dr. Paul Saladino, Gary Brecka, and Jack Kruse are saying.
  
  
• My personal experience with floaters and how castor oil unexpectedly helped.
  
  
• Why “fashion vs. function” might be a conversation worth having.
  
  
• A few practical takeaways on when it actually makes sense to wear shades.
  
  

I know this one might ruffle a few feathers 😎 but messy conversations are my favorite kind. We can’t grow if we only talk about what’s comfortable.

🌿 My takeaway: Our bodies are incredible. They were designed to work with the sun—not against it. I’m not saying toss out your Ray-Bans forever, but maybe… let that morning light in.

💬 Let’s chat:
 Do you wear sunglasses every day? Have you noticed how natural light affects your mood or energy? And bonus question—should we keep doing time changes or ditch them altogether? Drop me a comment or DM me your thoughts!

🎧 Thanks for tuning in to Everything’s Messy Podcast. Remember: it’s not about perfect—it’s about staying curious, getting a little messy, and taking better care of ourselves along the way.
