Ever feel like the quest for the perfect holistic lifestyle is running you ragged? You're not alone. I, Ali Kay, share my story of wellness fatigue, likening it to the moment you find out Santa Claus isn't real. Join me on this episode as we navigate the complex world of self-care for moms in 2025, where putting ourselves first isn't selfish—it's essential. We'll explore the recent U.S. ban on red dye and the growing influence of the food industry and pharmaceuticals, all while trying to find harmony between holistic ideals and the realities of motherhood.

As I recount my journey from cold plunges and saunas to supplements, inspired by influencers like Lauren Bostick and podcasts like Skinny Confidential and Huberman Lab, I reveal how modern medicine has a necessary place in my life. After my third child and ongoing health issues, I realized the extreme approach wasn't sustainable. Listen as I discuss the challenges of raising kids in a holistic environment and the importance of balance. Let’s redefine self-care together, creating a sustainable lifestyle that benefits us and our families without sacrificing our sanity.
