Neda is a holistic nutritionist and mental health advocate. She has been struggling over the recent years with seeking professional help for her grandma who has been diagnosed with suicidal depression. Neda gets vulnerable with us and shares her experience with finding her grandmother the right treatment, which ended up being ECT therapy. Sometimes the not so conventional ways are what leads us down a new path to recovery. 

Kelly Potter from Kp_ingitsimple on Instagram joins me on today’s episode. Kelly has a successful Instagram, is a nurse, teaches at an university for the College of Nursing AND is a P.H.D Candidate. 

Kelly is juggling a lot so we discuss burnout. We go over ways to look for burnout and start recognizing it before it happens. Kelly opens up about how she gets herself out of the feelings and what she does to avoid getting burned out when juggling so much.

Jamie Vespa R.D  discusses different ways to practice health & wellness on a budget. We both save in different areas and we discuss our tips and tricks on where we splurge and where we tend to save the most money. You can have a healthy lifestyle and eat well on budget! This idea came from a farmers market experience Jamie and I had recently. We were discussing how expensive some of the items were and how easy it was to blow 100 dollars on a few items there. 

Kennedy Haffner from @TheHealthyHaff on Instagram is a health and wellness content creator. She likes to create her own sunshine in life and she is full of positive energy. Kennedy and I go over fear and the effects it takes on our lives.  Fear creates two ways a human will react: fight or flight mode. Kennedy stands up and fights it. Kennedy also opens up about what it's like dealing with loneliness and how she has learned to grow from these feelings inside. 

Jordan from Dancing For Donuts and I have a very honest, candid conversation about how we fell into entrepreneurship and owning our own business (spoiler alert, it wasn't quite the plan at the time!) We open up about how we have dealt with rejection throughout our journey of having our own business. We discuss what it's like to have doors closed in your face. How to take a breath before responding to rejection and bounce back and keep grinding through it! I have listened to this episode a few times and it always makes me feel stronger and more motivated to keep hustling!

In this episode I discuss sleep routine with Erin Stokes, ND the Medical Director at  MegaFood. We go over common myths about sleep and she dives into simple habits we can change in our nightly routines to get the most optimal sleep.
