I don’t know about you guys.  But sometimes mom life feels really lonely.  And then throw in a more natural minded lifestyle, and it can feel even more isolating.

With mother’s day approaching, I wanted to invite Sara Jean on the podcast as a fellow holistic mama to have a Daily Wellness mom chat about all things healthy living. 

I want you to know that even when you feel alone on your health journey, you’re really not!  There are plenty of us mamas out here - trying to learn and grow and do better when we know better. 

Sara Jean and I talk about some of the struggles that this lifestyle brings, but also what motivates us to keep going. 

In this episode, you’ll hear what our health priorities are, what we hope to teach our kids, how we make choices and the wisdom in taking baby steps! 

 If you’re catching this on release day, Happy Mother’s Day to all our Daily Wellness mamas!

At least 35% of children are overweight or obese, the number has more than tripled since the 1970s.

Autism prevalence has gone up 317% since 2000.

At least 10% of kids in the US have been diagnosed with ADHD, and another 10% have anxiety.

Rates of kids with life-threatening allergies, asthma and even childhood cancer are all rising.

Health statistics for our kids aren’t moving in the right direction. 

I’m guessing that no parent listening would want their kid to be a part of one of these statistics, but what are we doing to ensure that?

Today, pediatrician Dr. Joel Warsh, known as Dr. Gator joins me on the show for a chat about what our role as parents is in the midst of these health challenges for our kids. 

He’ll share tips for raising healthy kids, dietary recommendations and some encouragement for parents who might be feeling overwhelmed by all this!

I share four ways you can teach your kids about healthy food in this episode. 

I love it when parents ask me about that, because it means that they are not just interested in feeding their kids healthy food but in teaching them the WHY behind it!  And if we can teach our kids about what foods are healthy, how to shop for them and the benefits of them, they are much more likely to continue eating healthy food when they leave our home. 

The four ideas I share have to do with:

Helping them understand the foods that God made and the foods that man made. 

Connecting your kids to where their food comes from.

Some strategies are more applicable to kids at certain ages, and I talk through that as well. 

If you love the episode, please take a minute to leave us a rating and review if applicable, we appreciate it!

On this educational episode, Gretch from @nevertox helps us understand the risks associated with Botox.  With the percentage of women receiving Botox injections on a normal basis increasing rapidly, we all need to think about this very intentionally so we can make informed choices. 

She explains the history of Botox, what it is and all the uses for it. We talk about the warnings that are on the box and how the warnings given to patients are often woefully inadequate. 

She also explains how someone can be injured (FYI - it can be a single exposure) and what the wide variety of symptoms from Botox injury can be. Gretch believes that there is no safe amount of Botox. 

She works with a support group of 36,000 individuals injured by Botox, but this is still a very small percentage of the people who have suffered negative impacts. 

Lastly, we discuss resources for those who are dealing with a Botox injury.

As women, this is something we need to be very educated about! So, after you listen. Please share this episode and the resources below with those you love!

This episode covers the 10 factors that Dr. Kelly Turner uncovered and shared in her book “Radical Remission” after interviewing over 1500 cancer survivors who had been sent home on hospice but then recovered.  Radical Remission coach, Liz Curran, takes us through the 10 factors that all these cancer survivors had in common. Only 3 are physical! 

 If you have a cancer diagnosis, know someone who does or you would like to try your best to prevent cancer, you will want to hear these factors for yourself. 

With 1 in 8 people receiving a diagnosis of cancer in the USA, this is incredibly relevant to all of  us. And I’m telling you, the stories of these cancer survivors are amazing!  Highly recommend you check out the books and other resources (all here for you in the show notes).

Social media bombards women with messages of what they “need”. Especially when it comes to our health and wellness. So, I wanted to bring some clarity to some of the confusion around the nutrients that every woman needs. Chelsie Moore, Functional Nutritionist, does just that. 

We chat about how the typical American diet and a woman's lifestyle affect their health. 

And then Chelsie gives us some insight on what women tend to be deficient in and what those nutrition needs are that are specific to women. I love how much we talk about real, nutrient dense foods and how to build your plate for maximum health!
