This conversation was mind blowing and is something every woman should listen to.

If you are exhausted, brain-fogged, anxious, freezing, losing hair, and being told everything looks “normal, this episode is for you.

We’re joined by Dr. Bobby Parmar, naturopathic doctorto talk about one of the most overlooked and undertreated issues in women’s health: iron deficiency. and Honestly this episode will probably make a lot of things click for you. Dr. Parmar has spent nearly 20 years in practice and has become known for calling out the massive gap in how medicine tests, interprets, and treats iron deficiency in women. 

In this conversation, we get into why so many women are walking around symptomatic long before they’re ever considered anemic, why “normal” lab work is not always reassuring, what markers actually matter, why oral iron often doesn’t cut it, and when iron infusions may be worth considering.

Why isn’t your pain going away, even when you’re doing everything “right”?

On today’s episode, we’re joined by Dr. Jess Hobson, ND, a naturopathic doctor specializing in sports medicine and chronic pain, to break down what’s actually going on when your body won’t heal.

From elite athletes to busy moms to seniors, the reality is we all have bodies, and at some point, we’re all dealing with pain. Knees, backs, shoulders, you name it. But what most people don’t realize is that pain isn’t always as simple as an “injury.”

We dive into the missing piece in pain and injury recovery, including:

•  Why some injuries heal in weeks while others last for years 
•  Why pain doesn’t always equal damage 
•  The role of the nervous system in chronic pain 
•  When to rest vs when to keep moving 
•  Red flags you should never ignore 
•  What “treating the root cause” actually looks like in pain medicine 

We also get into some of the most talked-about, and often misunderstood, treatments right now like PRP, prolotherapy, injections, peptides, and supplements, and what’s actually worth it.

This episode is for anyone who feels stuck in their healing, frustrated with ongoing pain, or just wants to better understand how their body works.

Because the truth is, you’re probably not broken. You might just be missing a piece of the puzzle.

PCOS is one of the most misunderstood conditions in the entire wellness space.

You’re told to cut carbs. Then not to cut carbs. Take supplements. But which ones?  Balance your hormones, but no one explains what that actually means. The reality is, a lot of what’s being shared online about PCOS is either oversimplified, taken out of context… or just flat-out wrong.

Instead of another general PCOS episode, we’re breaking down the biggest myths in this space with someone who’s known for actually challenging what’s being said online and bringing it back to what’s real, what’s evidence-based, and what actually works.

We are talking with Dr. Kate Ferguson, a Naturopathic Doctor who has a clinical focus in PCOS and women’s hormonal health who is not afraid to call out the BS all while being able to have compassion for those trying to navigate this space at the same time.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “bad at life”… constantly overwhelmed, disorganized, or like you just can’t keep up the way other people seem to, this episode is for you.

Today, we’re talking all about adult ADHD, what it actually looks like beyond the stereotypes, why so many women are getting diagnosed later in life, and the tools that can genuinely make a difference in your day-to-day life.

We’re joined by Christal Wang, co-founder and CEO of Shimmer, a leading ADHD coaching and support platform. After being diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, Christal built Shimmer to create the kind of support she wished she had, combining coaching, structure, and now AI-powered tools to help people actually follow through and feel more in control of their lives.

She’s also a Forbes 30 Under 30 entrepreneur and is redefining what ADHD care can look like beyond just medication and quick fixes.

In this episode, we get into:

• what adult ADHD really looks like (especially in women)
• why it’s often missed or diagnosed later in life
• how ADHD shows up in work, relationships, and daily routines
• the difference between knowing what to do vs. actually doing it
• tools that actually help (including coaching, AI, and body doubling)
• why most productivity advice doesn’t work for ADHD brains

Whether you have ADHD, think you might, or just feel like you’re constantly playing catch-up, this conversation will help you understand your brain-and yourself-a whole lot better.

The wellness industry is worth four times the pharmaceutical industry, and that includes one of the most confusing parts of the wellness world: supplements. This week, we open up about the supplements we actually take, why we take it, and the supplement myths we are tired of seeing pushed on social media. 

From colostrum, to sea moss, NAD, to berberine, to why your ND's school got sponsored by supplement companies too, this is the episode your TikTok algorithm doesn't want you to have. 

Plus: the three questions you need to ask before you buy anything, which trending supplements are a waste of money, and why "third-party tested" matters more than the influencer recommending it and brand marketing it.

We talk about:

• The supplements we personally take (and why)
• The biggest mistakes people make when building a supplement routine
• How to tell if a supplement is actually worth your money
• The difference between evidence-based products and social media hype
• Some of the trendiest supplements online right now and whether they actually work

There’s a phase of womanhood that no one really names. You’re not a teenager, but you’re not “in menopause.” But you know something feels different. Your cycle isn’t completely gone, but it’s not predictable. You can’t handle things the way you used to be able to. You’re high-functioning,  & getting everything done but wondering why half the month feels harder than it should.

And instead of answers? You get told it’s stress. Or PMS. Or maybe you’re told it’s just what happens when you get older.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Keila Roesner, Naturopathic Doctor to talk about the hormonal grey zone: the 20-year stretch of life that no one prepared us for. 

We unpack:

•  Why your menstrual cycle is more than just a period, it’s a vital sign!
• How your hormone respond to your environment at every cycle
•  The difference between PMS, PMDD, and perimenopause
•  What’s actually happening with estrogen, progesterone, serotonin, and mood, and why things just don’t feel the same
•  Why cutting carbs and overtraining might be making things worse
•  And how to support your hormones without falling into the estrogen-detox, Dutch-test spiral

If you have PCOS and you feel like your body and metabolism is fighting  against you… this episode is for you.  The “just eat less, move more” advice falls short here,  and we’re especially done with the gym bros who can’t explain a follicular phase telling women to cut carbs and just try harder. So, in this episode we brought on for the second time Dr. Alison Gottschalk, Naturopathic Doctor to come on to dive deep into the weight loss and metabolism conversation when it comes to PCOS.

We talk about

• What insulin resistance really is and what important lab markers to look out for
• The connection between your liver, testosterone, and weight
• Why under-eating can actually make everything worse
• Why muscle might be more important than any supplement in PCOS
• The Low carb conversation
• HIIT training  and cortisol in PCOS
• GLP-1’s and other medications used here 

And so much more

This week, we’re getting very real about why your dating life might feel like a rollercoaster, and what your attachment style has to do with it.

We’re joined by Dr. Morgan Anderson, clinical psychologist, relationship coach, and host of the Let’s Get Vulnerable podcast, for a deep (and slightly spicy) dive into attachment theory: how it forms, how it plays out in dating, and what it actually looks like to become securely attached.

We talk anxious spirals, the anxious-avoidant trap, self-abandonment in relationships (yep, even the "cool girl" kind), why you might be addicted to chaos, and how to know if it’s a trauma bond or real emotional intimacy.

Whether you're single, dating, married, or deep in your therapy era, this one’s going to hit. Hard.
