Today’s episode is one I’ve been so excited to share. If you’ve been around here long, you know I’m incredibly passionate about knowing where my food comes from—and supporting small farms that are doing things right. And that’s exactly what Plainview Beef is all about.

They’re a family-run ranch raising 100% grass-fed, grass-finished beef the way nature intended—no antibiotics, no hormones, no shortcuts. Just real, nutrient-dense meat raised with integrity and transparency. Their focus on regenerative practices and soil health doesn’t just benefit their cattle—it helps rebuild our food system from the ground up.

I’ve yet to meet another meat company doing what Plainview is doing. They’re setting a new standard in this space, and it’s the kind of work we need to rally behind. In this episode, I’m sitting down with [insert guest’s name] to talk about what makes their beef so unique, how they care for their land and animals, and why it matters more than ever to support people like them—real families making a real difference in the way we eat and live.

I’m so excited to share this two part series with you on Holistic Dentistry!

I had the pleasure of having my dentist on the podcast, Dr. Rebecca Taylor.  She is the queen of holistic and biological dentistry and is sharing so many nuggets in these episodes.  We split the episode into two chunks so you could really digest all she has to share. I’v personally experienced such great results from her practice and can’t wait for you up level your oral health with her knowledge as well.

Dr. Taylor is the lead dentist at O2Dontics and the owner of Green City Dental, conducting airway, TMJ, and sleep screenings along with comprehensive diagnostic exams that consider whole-body health holistically. Her goal is to treat people, function, and root causes – not just teeth or symptoms.

With a background in molecular biology and dentistry from UC Santa Barbara and the University of the Pacific, Dr. Taylor is accredited in safe mercury removal, board-certified in naturopathy and integrative biologic dental medicine, and certified in ozone, myofunctional, and functional orthodontic therapies. This comprehensive training allows collaborative, individualized treatment plans focused on total mouth and body health.

She has developed a passion for treating crowded teeth and sleep apnea/airway issues, becoming a top provider of Myobrace and DNA/Vivos systems on the West Coast. Drawing from biological dentistry, functional medicine, cranial-sacral therapy, and orthodontics, she utilizes an interdisciplinary protocol for jaw development and sleep apnea.

In this episode She’s sharing:

1. What people need to know about mercury fillings and proper removal?

2. All about orthodontics- are braces really the best option, and is there more that we should be looking at than just crowded teeth?

3. Why we should be using hydroxyapatite in our toothpaste and are there risks involved with using it?

4. We also dive into waterflossing, and why she is a fan.

I also asked her some Rapid Fire questions that include :

• Her Thoughts on oil pulling- and if it actually works?
• Her Thoughts on mouth taping?
• Are electric toothbrushes better than manual ones?
• What her perfect natural oral care routine would look like
• What's the best way to whiten your teeth naturally?

If you’ve been looking for a holistic dentist, look no further than Green City Dental.  I can’t recommend them enough.  Dr. Rebecca also does virtual consults as well if you don’t live close.

Today, I have on a very special guest! Her name is Jenn Boughey and she has been my mindset coach for almost a year now and I’m so excited to share her with you!

Jenn helps women break free from overthinking, self-criticism, and people-pleasing so they can step into radical self-compassion and authentic, vibrant living. With a background in leadership, mindset work, and counseling, she empowers women to discover who they truly are, what they really want, and take practical steps to make it happen.

After years of searching for approval in all the wrong places, Jenn realized that lasting transformation comes from renewing her mind and grounding her identity in something greater than herself. By shifting her beliefs and embracing God’s truth, she unlocked the power to change her life—and now she helps other women do the same. Through 1:1 and small-group coaching, she holds space for women to step into their worth, rewrite their stories, and create lives they love, rooted in faith and purpose.

In this episode, we dive into

• How changing your mindset can change your life
• What it means to take ownership of our minds
• How to identify negative mindsets like people pleasing
• Why identifying personal values are so important
• And what victim and victor mindset is

This episode is packed full of nuggets that truly have the power to change your life if you let them!
