The rock band Heart didn't break barriers, they brought to light that barriers even existed.  That naivete served them. It allowed them to confidently forge forward with their love of making music without once questioning their place. It was only upon their journey they realized they were women rockers, and for decades have sidestepped the misogyny of the music biz, bucked the musical trends, and remained relevant and securely stationed in their place on the pantheon of rock legends. Nancy Wilson opens up about her family, writing music, divorce, living well in order to age well, the story behind Barracuda, finding true love in her late 50's (she brought her manager on her first date and her lawyer on her second date because she was scared shitless), and of course, being a rocker.

Dr. Gladys McGarey was born in 1920. She spent her childhood in the jungles of North India. Her parents were both osteopathic physicians and Dr. Gladys knew she too was destined to be a doctor. She had a moment of deep connection with Mahatma Gandhi when she was ten-years-old that would forever change her life and set her on a path of love.

In this episode Dr. McGarey shares the five L's of life. She teaches us to listen to the wisdom of our own bodies. We are the healers, the physician assists us. We discuss "femifesting" as opposed to manifesting, finding your "juice" in life, the power of dwelling in gratitude, how everything in our path is a lesson, and the importance of REALLY letting go of things that don't matter. She knows a thing or two about living and we were so lucky to have a conversation with this wise elder.

Over the past sixty years, she has pioneered a new way of thinking about disease and health that has transformed the way we imagine health care and self-care around the world. The founder of The Foundation for Living Medicine and cofounder of the American Holistic Medical Association, Dr. McGarey has mentored everyone from Dr. Mark Hyman to Dr. Edith Eger and has helped hundreds of patients live happier and healthier lives. In April 2024 with the release of the paperback version of The Well-Lived Life, she became a best-selling author at the age of 102.

If you think you know Chef AJ, buckle up. She talks about her traumatic childhood that resulted in her living with her aunt who was a Cordon Bleu chef. That aunt changed the trajectory of her life. She journeyed from being food addicted, obese, anorexic, and sugar addicted, to finding a sustainable way to maintain a healthy weight through the principles of calorie density. She explains how food affects weight, health, and aging. She shares the story of her sugar addiction and how someone told her that she was compensating for the lack of sweetness in her life by eating so much sugar. At the time, she thought he was crazy; but he was spot on. Chef AJ’s latest cookbook, Sweet Indulgence, offers a collection of delicious and healthy dessert recipes that are vegan, gluten-free, and sugar-free.
