We all know the special kind of crappery that hits after a bad night’s sleep. But what we don’t always realize in the moment is how much that tiredness can quietly shape the choices we make — from how we eat to how we think to how we handle our day.

So, in this episode we get into what actually happens after a bad nights sleep, but it's also designed so you can come  back to it anytime you’ve had a rough night (or week) of sleep - because those are the days where we need reminders . . . 

We’re Covering:
✔️ How sleep loss impacts your hunger hormones and cravings (and what to do about it)
✔️ Why your anxiety volume might feel louder and how to ground yourself
✔️ How tiredness can make everything feel more personal (and why it’s not actually about you)
✔️ Why your willpower and motivation take a hit after poor sleep — and how to work with it, not against it
✔️ The “feelgood thing” that can give you a much-needed boost on tired days

We’re talking about something we don’t talk about enough:  what happens at end.  When it's our time to check out, and what we leave behind. 

Joining me today is ER physician and founder of Take Care, Dr. Laura “Shoots” Shoots, who’s seen firsthand what happens when families aren’t prepared. She’s here to share the conversations that actually matter, why a will isn’t enough, and how a little planning can make a world of difference. 

It's also a perspective shift if you're looking for a way to get out of your own head (especially if you are stressing about the little things)... 

We’re Covering:
✔️ Why end-of-life planning is one of the biggest acts of love you can offer your family
✔️ The difference between having a will and actually being prepared
✔️ How to handle family dynamics, hard conversations, and superstition head-on
✔️ Why tech (yep—your digital life) is a game-changer in legacy planning
✔️ How reflecting on your legacy can help you live more intentionally now

Plus: Shoots shares her feelgood thing!

Decision fatigue is real—especially in the supplement aisle. Today I’m breaking down the big protein powder families (whey, casein, plant blends, beef, collagen, and the newer essential amino acid powders) so you can pick what actually fits your body, goals, and budget—without huff-and-puff rage-quitting your cart. 

We’re covering:

• Whey vs why isolate, and why I've changed my opinion on dairy-based protein powders 
• Plant-based blends: why pea + rice (and fermented options) can fix chalky, bloaty vibes but how to get around it 
• Lesser known but popular in the natural-health world: Beef protein (you heard me right) 
• Collagen 101: skin/joints/gut perks—but why it’s not your main protein source
• The new Amino Acid Powders on the market, and why they could be a better pick for some 
• Practical picks by goal: recovery, easy digestion, skin/hair/nails, or minimal calories
• today's feel good thing 

Who this episode is for:

• You’re confused by labels (isolate, concentrate, fermented, hydrolyzed, marine vs. bovine)
• You want easier recovery, steadier energy, or support as you age
• You struggle with digestion on typical powders and need gentler options

Brands/terms mentioned (not sponsored):

New Zealand whey isolate, fermented plant proteins (e.g., Genuine Health, Progressive in Canada), beef protein isolate, bovine & marine collagen, essential amino acid powders (e.g., PerfectAmino, Promino, Designs for Health).

In today's episode, we're going through the ads we see on social media that claim to fix your life and give each a breakdown.. .

We’re talking through some of the buzziest wellness products making the rounds online—from mouth taping to NAD IV drips—and I’m giving my honest, no-BS take on what’s worth trying, what still needs more research, and what might just be excessive marketing.

We’re covering:

• Grounding sheets: what they are, how they’re supposed to work, and why some people swear by them
• Sea moss
• NAD+ supplements and IVs: why they’re being called “anti-aging in a bottle” and what I’d try first instead
• Mouth taping for sleep: the pros, the cons, and how to test it safely
• Non-alcoholic calming drops: what’s actually in them and how to DIY your own for way cheaper
• The importance of not approaching wellness from a place of lack
• A feelgood thing inspired by a kind stranger and a little oxytocin boost

Today's episode is for the days when you’re feeling stuck, or are feeling so overwhelmed that your brain can't make a single decision. . . 

Maybe work is piling up, or maybe it’s just a boring laundry day that’s draining you. Either way, you’re not quite sure how to break out of it.

Today, I'm gonna break down  a perspective shift that’s been helping me lately, a way to  step out of the stress, the what-ifs, or the boredom, and see everything with fresh eyes. Because when you can shift your perspective—even just a little—it can make life feel just a little easier.

We’re covering:

• Perspective shift for your consideration 
• The ripple effect of that perspective shift
• Why even the boring, mundane moments matter in the bigger picture
• How to use this tool in daily life—no matter what you’re dealing with

If you’ve ever found yourself caught up in the noise of your own thoughts, this one’s for you. 

And if this shift clicks for you? Amazing. If not, that’s okay too. As always, take what you need and leave the rest.
