You don’t need another diet, detox, or quick fix — you need to relearn how to master your metabolism.

In this episode, Ellie Anderson, MHS, RDN, LD — functional nutritionist and founder of Elevated Integrative Wellness — unpacks why that “last 10 pounds” isn’t about calories or cardio, it’s about communication: your hormones talking to your metabolism. You’ll learn how cortisol chaos, insulin inflexibility, and thyroid slowdown are blocking your results — and how to finally work with your body instead of against it.

Ellie brings blend of clinical expertise, faith-fueled encouragement, and functional science to help you understand how metabolism isn’t something to “fix” — it’s something to master.

Guest: Todd LaVine, Founder of Agape Pastoral Ministries (Anoka, MN)

A heartfelt and truth-filled conversation on what it means to build a “’til death do us part” marriage in a world that’s forgotten covenant — exploring God’s design for unity, healing, and transformation within marriage.

In this episode, Ellie sits down with Todd Ravine of Agape Pastoral Ministries to dive deep into the biblical foundations of marriage, practical tools for communication and conflict resolution, and how couples can renew their minds and restore their relationship through Christ.

With over two decades of ministry experience, Todd brings compassionate, Scripture-based wisdom to couples at every stage — from pre-marriage to reconciliation. Together, Ellie and Todd unpack the realities of marriage today, discuss cultural misconceptions, and share tangible ways to cultivate a covenant that reflects God’s heart.

If you’re married, engaged, or simply seeking to strengthen your relationship, this episode will leave you both convicted and encouraged.

Key Topics:

What “renewing your mind” really looks like inside marriage (Romans 12:2)

Rebuilding trust after conflict or betrayal

The role of leadership and submission in biblical harmony

Practical tools for communication, prayer, and intimacy

Why covenant matters (and how the world has gotten it backwards)

In this episode, Ellie explores what it really means to age gracefully—without gimmicks, false promises, or unregulated shortcuts. Drawing from her personal wellness journey and integrative practice, she breaks down the science and spirituality behind true longevity. From peptides, NAD+, and hydration to sleep, mindset, and nutrient density, Ellie reveals how holistic biohacks can restore energy, vitality, and glow from the inside out.

She also teases upcoming episodes on trauma-informed healing, fertility, and chiropractic techniques—reminding listeners that aging well isn’t about reversing time, but about living in alignment with the body God designed.

Most people think mold is just a problem for old, damp basements—but the truth is far more alarming. In this episode, Ellie sits down with Vickie Swenson, certified mold inspector and founder of MN Mold Inspection, to uncover the hidden ways mold infiltrates our homes, our bodies, and even our minds. Together, they unpack why traditional testing and cleanup often miss the mark, how to recognize the subtle signs of mold toxicity, and what it really takes to heal your home and your health.

If you’ve struggled with unexplained fatigue, anxiety, inflammation, or “mystery symptoms,” this conversation could be the missing piece you’ve been searching for.
