Sitting down with Connie and hearing her story was truly inspiring! She is an author, a ghost writer, and takes a very unique approach to healing.

We talk about her new book,

and how she uses a top-down method to healing when it comes to chronic illness and health matters.

We discuss the neuro-plasticity of the brain, brain health itself, how to form new neural pathways, and how to bring faith and the spirit into healing.

A shorter but super informative episode where we dive into womens hormones and discuss the disservice women have had when it comes to education of the menstrual cycle.

Topics covered include the multiple phases of the menstrual cycle, the ovulatory window, supplement cure-alls and quick fixes, + the best way to actually get to the root of your hormonal imbalances.

Thank you for listening, I am so happy that you are here.

Time for a heart to heart, one on one solo episode!

This is a topic that I think about often and couldn't wait to delve into. Faith played a huge role in my healing and I also believe that my healing played a huge part in my faith.

In this episode, I talk about how scripture and my faith in God helped me to let go of the control that I desired to have over my situation and how I LET GOD handle it. I discuss scripture that has helped me to feel confident, whether a pimple is present or not. Of course, I emphasize the impact that stress and mindset has on our healing and how scripture and God helped me overcome just. that.

Enjoy <3

I. Am. So. Dang. Excited.

Having Kristen on the podcast was such an amazing experience. This lady has gone FULL CIRCLE. From being a NICU nurse (who thought home births should be illegal), to becoming a holistic nutritionist, next a freedom fighter, and now a faith filled mama - who had her very own home birth - travelling through southern countries with her family who mentors other mamas to help them stand up for their family and stay true and firm in their beliefs.

We talk all about how Kristen got to where she is now, her pivotal moments, standing steadfast in her beliefs when the media (tried to) shame her, and also her new course, Warrior Mama.

This is such an inspiring, enlightening, and eye opening podcast episode. Kristen has so much faith filled courage that she fills a room with exuberance.

Please, enjoy :)

Mindset, Letting go of Labels, Self-talk, & Overcoming Trauma - OH MYYYY.

You are going to want to hear about Tristans story, no matter what you are going through this is guaranteed to help shift your mindset. Whether you're in a season of health complications, financial distress, emotional turmoil I promise you will find some comfort in this episode.

Tristan and I talk all about how mindset affects your physical health but also how your outlooks on situations can actually change your personality - for worse or better. Identifying with labels? Forget it. Healing and overcoming from labels and trauma is IN, time to take the negative self-talk trash OUT.

Have I convinced you enough?

Current status: wondering how Costa Rica got it so right but western society has, in some cases, gotten it wrong when it comes to birth.

In this episode, our guest Corryn, from TWA Studio, discusses her costa rican birth story as a Canadian and how she felt her birth experience could've gone sideways if she chose a different country to have her daughter. We talk about why her and her husband chose Costa Rica, her pregnancy experience in a different country, holistic approaches her own OB took, the atmosphere, as well as the Costa Rican outlook on pregnancy & children. This episode is jam packed with so much hope, light, and assurance that birth doesn't have to be scary or traumatic (although we do understand that uncontrollable things happen). So sit back, relax, enjoy some fresh Costa Rican fruit or maybe a kombucha, and enjoy!
