“There is no such thing as failure. You’re a work in progress, and every single choice you make is another opportunity to succeed.” - Stefanie Dougherty

In this heartwarming episode of the Green Glow Lifestyle Podcast, host Kylie Buckner welcomes back her cousin, Stefanie Dougherty, for a deep dive into the mental and spiritual art of self-love.

"Resilience is the strength to bounce back after life knocks you down. But Pre-silience is the wisdom to be so present and aligned that you notice the subtle shifts before they become a struggle. It’s the difference between surviving the storm and being the one who was ready for it." - Kylie Buckner, RN

Instead of only celebrating how well you "bounce back," Kylie invites you to notice your body’s whispers before it has to scream. Through the lens of immune health, she shares how daily presence, stress awareness, and proactive fueling can support your body’s internal security and repair team.

In this quick Glow & Go episode, Master’s Prepared nurse and physiology nerd Kylie Buckner hands you a missing page from your body’s owner’s manual: how to actually read a nutrition label.

Most of us were never taught how to decode the back of the package. We’re swimming in “heart healthy,” “natural,” and “high protein” claims on the front of the box—but your brain and your biology don’t read marketing. They read molecules.

Kylie breaks down three simple filters you can use on any packaged food so you can decide, with confidence, what belongs in your cart and on your plate.

"Your doctor has the textbook, but you have the owner's manual. When they dismiss your experience, they are ignoring the most important data point in the room: You."- Kylie Buckner, RN

In this raw and unfiltered episode, Master’s-prepared nurse and “diabetes whisperer” Kylie Buckner sits down with her husband, Cyrus Khambatta, PhD (author of Mastering Diabetes), to call out a hard truth:

People living with Type 1 diabetes are being gaslit, blamed, and failed by a system that is decades behind the science.

Kylie shares what she sees on repeat with her Type 1 clients:

They also talk about the many unaddressed variables that affect blood glucose—hormones, temperature, stress, altitude, illness, alcohol—and why refusing to consider these is, at this point, negligence.

Most importantly, they speak directly to Type 1 warriors:

You are not a “bad diabetic.”

Intermittent fasting works best when it supports your nervous system. If it spikes stress, it’s not alignment—it’s overload.”- Kylie Buckner, RN

Intermittent fasting can be a powerful tool—or a fast track to feeling wired, depleted, and obsessed with food. The difference is alignment.

In this episode, Master’s-prepared nurse and wellness coach [Your Name] breaks down the real physiology behind time-restricted eating: circadian rhythm, insulin sensitivity, late-night eating, and why timing can reduce metabolic “friction” when it’s used correctly.

You’ll learn how to choose the right fasting window for your body, how to start without triggering stress physiology, and when fasting is not appropriate—so you can use timed eating as a supportive tool instead of a rigid rule.

"When you put fiber on your plate, you aren't just eating; you are performing a clinical intervention on your own inflammation." Kylie Buckner, RN

Most people think fiber is just about “staying regular.” But as a Master’s-prepared nurse, yoga teacher, and wellness coach, I know fiber is actually one of the most powerful, evidence-based clinical tools you can put on your plate.

In this episode, I’m filling in one of the missing pages in your body’s owner’s manual:

We talk about how fiber-rich foods support your gut microbiome, increase short-chain fatty acids like butyrate, strengthen your gut barrier, and help regulate inflammation, blood sugar, cholesterol, and appetite. Then we turn it into a simple, doable fiber-forward plate framework you can start using today.

Ready to go deeper and actually live this way with structure and support?

If this episode sparked something in you and you’re ready to experience the power of a truly fiber-fueled, whole-food, plant-based lifestyle, I’d love to invite you to join me at the McDougall Immersion.

I’ll be teaching on fiber and gut health—and you’ll also get:

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to stop dabbling and start truly caring for your microbiome, blood sugar, and inflammation…this might be it.

"You choose your choice. You might not choose the stressor, the schedule, or the diagnosis, but you can choose the input. Pre-flection is the art of choosing the version of you that you’re becoming." - Kylie Buckner RN

Stop setting resolutions and start writing your own owner’s manual.

Most of us were never given an owner’s manual for our bodies. We understand how our blenders work better than we understand our own nervous systems, blood sugar, or habit loops. This New Year’s Day, Master’s-prepared nurse and wellness coach Kylie Buckner, RN is throwing out the high-pressure resolutions and introducing a more powerful, evidence-based concept: Pre-flection.

In this episode, we explore why your brain "doesn't like it when you change your mind" and how to work with your biology instead of against it. We’re moving past simple reflection and into the "Choice Lens"—the realization that while we don't choose our circumstances, we always "choose our choice" when it comes to our daily inputs.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Whether you’re feeling energized or exhausted this January 1st, join us for a conversation that is equal parts science and soul, designed to help you show up for your most optimal, aligned year yet.
