  • Ep 120: Infrared Sauna Recall, Lifetime Warranties & What to Look For | Ask Jen

    Ep 120 | If the CPSC issued infrared sauna recall affecting nearly 42,000 units caught your eye and left you wondering what the fuss was about, this one's for you. Jen's got the rundown, and a little reassurance.ย 

    This is the sauna conversation nobody wanted to need, but here we are. Jen breaks down which brands got swept into the Sauna360 recall and why Clearlight sits completely outside of it. Then she gets into the question she wishes more people asked before buying: what does the warranty actually cover? If you own a sauna or you've got one in your cart, this is the no-influencer-spin rundown on what to look for.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    00:44 โ€“ Why Jen scrapped her planned show to cover the recall
    03:02 โ€“ The Sauna360 recall explained, and the brands it swept up
    04:50 โ€“ Is Clearlight part of the infrared sauna recall?
    06:05 โ€“ What a lifetime sauna warranty should really cover (read the fine print)
    09:30 โ€“ How heater placement affects your sauna's safety and results
    11:45 โ€“ EMF, ELF, and what to look for before buying an infrared sauna

    Recalls are unsettling, but they're also a nudge to get curious and ask sharper questions before you bring a wellness tool into your home.

  • Ep 119: Whole Body Vibration for Bone Density, Strength & Recovery with Caroline Pearce

    Ep 119 | After a stroke left Jen's left side paralyzed, ten minutes a day standing on a vibration plate became one of the things she credits with getting her strength back.

    In this episode, Jen sits down with Caroline Pearce, a former Great Britain heptathlete and 20-year Power Plate Master Trainer, to get into how whole body vibration supports the body at every stage of life. They talk bone density and osteoporosis through perimenopause, how vibration wakes up muscles that have gone quiet after an injury, what it does for cortisol and hormones, and why nine minutes can be plenty. This one speaks straight to women keeping an eye on their bone density and osteoporosis risk through perimenopause. It's just as useful for anyone rebuilding strength after an injury or illness, or short on time and looking for a workout that fits into a real day.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    0:00 โ€“ Intro
    03:40 โ€“ From Great Britain's heptathlon and bobsled teams to the knee injury that led Caroline to whole body vibration
    07:05 โ€“ Jen's stroke, a paralyzed left side, and the ten-minute daily habit she credits with her recovery
    10:20 โ€“ How vibration triggers muscle activation the brain can't switch on consciously
    17:05 โ€“ Building bone density and easing osteoporosis risk in perimenopause without heavy weights
    22:15 โ€“ What whole body vibration does for cortisol, hormones, and that post-workout calm
    23:50 โ€“ Visceral fat, metabolism, and why it gets harder to release the weight with age
    29:10 โ€“ Bite-sized fitness: stacking the plate with infrared sauna, cold plunge, and red light
    39:25 โ€“ How to spot a quality vibration plate versus a cheap "shaky plate"

    Your body is built to heal, and sometimes the tool that helps is one you can stand on for nine minutes at home.

    Meet Caroline Pearce:
    Caroline Pearce is a former international heptathlete and bobsled athlete for Great Britain, turned TV sports host and exercise physiologist. She holds a first-class honors degree in Sports Science and a master's in Exercise Physiology, and has been a Master Trainer and ambassador for Power Plate for 20 years. She's a lead trainer for the FitOn fitness app, authored "Better Body Workouts for Women," and currently reports for TNT Sports covering UFC and boxing. Fun fact: she played "Ice" on the UK's Gladiators.

  • Ep 118: Buying an Infrared Sauna Led to Writing a Book with Ryan Schiff

    Ep 118 | When Ryan Schiff set out to buy an infrared sauna for his home, he was after better heart health, deeper stretching, and a little more recovery in his day. What he didn't expect was that the quiet inside it would become the place he wrote his first book.

    In this conversation, Jen and Ryan talk through what it looks like to bring wellness into your home, from choosing the right infrared sauna (and why heater placement matters far more than the sale price) to the daily cold plunge habit that tests his willpower every single morning. At almost 60 and feeling better than he did in his 30s, Ryan is proof that slowing down and staying consistent can open doors you never saw coming.

    This one's for you if you've been thinking about buying an infrared sauna and don't know where to start, or if you're chasing a goal and quietly wondering whether it's the thing that matters.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    00:00 โ€“ Meet Ryan Schiff and how he found Jen
    5:09 โ€“ Why Ryan was buying an infrared sauna: heart health, hot yoga, and recovery
    10:05 โ€“ How to buy an infrared sauna without the pushy sales tactics
    26:05 โ€“ Infrared sauna heater placement: the detail most people miss
    27:07 โ€“ The daily cold plunge routine and the mindset it takes to get in
    36:10 โ€“ Writing a book in the sauna: stillness, focus, and flow
    51:10 โ€“ Aging with purpose and what a neighbor taught Ryan about presence

    Whether you're eyeing your first sauna or just craving a little more stillness in your day, this is a reminder that the good stuff often shows up when you slow down enough to notice it.

    Meet Ryan Schiff:
    Ryan is a lifelong athlete, former professional hockey player, and, as of this summer, a first-time author. After a health scare in his late 50s, he built a routine around his infrared sauna and daily cold plunge. It was during those quiet sauna sessions that he wrote A Fool's Errand, a book about golf, presence, and the people who shape us along the way.

  • Ep 117: How to Train Your Brain and Regulate Your Nervous System with Dr. Patrick Porter

    Ep 117 | Every brain ships with a rewrite option. Most of us just never got the manual. This week, Dr. Patrick Porter hands it over: the neuroplasticity behind how the brain rewires and heals, and why light-and-sound tools like BrainTap can help.ย 

    In this episode, Jen sits down with Dr. Patrick Porter, creator of BrainTap, to unpack what that rewrite looks like in practice, and what it means for your focus, your sleep, and your stress. Jen shares how she came back from a debilitating stroke, and how retraining her brain with BrainTap became part of her recovery. She and Dr. Porter dig into how light-and-sound sessions can support everything from deep sleep to releasing stubborn weight, why so few of us can meditate on our own, how neuroplasticity means your brain never stops changing, and why the home you live in shapes your brain health more than you'd think.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    8:32 โ€“ How light and sound shift your brainwaves (and calm fight-or-flight)
    11:03 โ€“ "Brain voltage" and building new brain cells
    16:29 โ€“ Why so few people can meditate on their own, and what to do about it
    24:07 โ€“ Rewiring old stress and the stories we replay
    33:22 โ€“ The "Saving Your Brain" study on dementia
    46:25 โ€“ Creating a home that supports your brain instead of draining it

    If you're the tired-but-wired type, the over-thinker, the light sleeper, the one who's tried to meditate and quit in frustration, this one's for you.

    Meet Dr. Patrick Porter:
    Dr. Patrick Porter, PhD, is the founder of BrainTap and a longtime pioneer in brainwave training. For more than thirty years he's studied how light and sound can guide the brain into calmer, more focused states. His work is now used by over 120,000 people and 3,000-plus wellness clinics worldwide, and he's been featured everywhere from The Wall Street Journal to CNN to The Joe Rogan Experience. His latest book, Brain Fitness Blueprint (co-written with former Google wellbeing exec Ruchika Sikri), lays out a practical plan for everyday brain health.

  • Ep 116: Healthspan vs Lifespan: How to Feel Better as You Age with Bill Quateman

    Ep 116 | Living longer is one thing. Feeling good while you're doing it is anotherโ€”and that gap between healthspan and lifespan is what this episode is about.

    Bill Quateman has a practical read on why so many of us feel tired, foggy, and a little "off" even when our labs come back fine. He and Jen get into hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA), the at-home test he calls the most foundational look at your own biochemistry, plus why minerals are the spark plugs behind your energy, the truth about mineral deficiency and fatigue, and how the slow metabolic decline that quietly starts in your early 30s doesn't have to run the show. They also talk longevity without the hype and what it really takes to build a healthy, non-toxic home. Jen opens up about chasing her own health backwards after a brain injury and a stroke, and why she brought so many healing tools into her space.

    This one's for you if you're taking a cabinet full of supplements with no idea what's working, if you feel not sick exactly but not really well either, or if your energy and focus just aren't what they were ten years ago and you're ready to feel better as you age.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    [04:10] โ€“ From a music career signed by Clive Davis to regenerative health
    [12:20] โ€“ Hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA): the at-home test for your minerals and energy
    [16:10] โ€“ Why minerals are the spark plugs of energy, and when the slow decline begins
    [20:05] โ€“ Healthspan vs lifespan: feeling better now, not just living longer
    [21:00] โ€“ Mineral deficiency, fatigue, and brain fog: testing over guessing on supplements
    [27:25] โ€“ Turning your home into a healthy, non-toxic healing space: mindset, cleaner air, water, and light
    [37:30] โ€“ What Bill believes is missing in the conventional medical world

    Wherever you're starting from, the heart of this one is simple: your body wants to feel good, and it's not too late to give it what it needs.

    Meet Bill Quateman:
    Bill Quateman has studied holistic health and regenerative medicine for 30 years, including a 32-year mentorship with Dr. Bruce Boyd, a professor of psychiatry at Northwestern University, plus two decades alongside leading regenerative medicine physicians. Since 2000 he's worked in orthomolecular treatment, ozone therapy, and stem cells, learning from pioneers like Dr. Abram Hoffer, one of the founders of orthomolecular medicine. His company, Advanced BioCell, is a concierge regenerative medicine resource that coaches each person to create their own healing strategies in a toxic world.

  • Ep 115: Building a Healthy Home: The 12 Core Principles with Brian Johnson

    Ep 115 | The materials and construction that go into a home matter. So does its energy. Brian Johnson builds healthy homes that account for both, with small steps that work whether you're breaking ground or already moved in.

    Most healthy-home advice stops at non-toxic paint and a water filter. Brian goes deeper. A licensed contractor for 23+ years, he merges building science with building biology into a 12-principle framework for homes that don't just avoid harm, they support how you sleep, breathe, and feel. Jen and Brian discuss mold, EMFs, water, light, quantum energy, and why the walls around you matter more than you think.

    This episode is for anyone who wants their home to support their health, whether you're building from the ground up, house-hunting, mid-renovation, or you just want the place you already live to feel better. No blueprint or big budget required.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    [06:20] โ€“ The moldy-lumber moment that set Brian on this whole path
    [18:25] โ€“ What "building science meets building biology" really means (and why the two worlds stay siloed)
    [22:30] โ€“ Non-toxic building materials that still perform, and what "beyond LEED" looks like
    [25:40] โ€“ The four types of EMF, and why dirty electricity is the noise you can feel but can't name
    [28:00] โ€“ Water, light, and air designed as one system: filtration, full-spectrum lighting, and ventilation
    [54:00] โ€“ The energy of a space: harmonizers and how a home feels
    [1:15:00] โ€“ Inside "the element," Brian's community of 20 wellness-focused homes north of Tucson

    You don't need to gut your house to start. Even a few of these principles can shift how your home feels, and how you feel inside it.

    Meet Brian Johnson:
    Brian is a general contractor, builder, and triple-certified building biologist, and one of the few people connecting how a home is built to the health of the people living in it. As founder and CEO of Senergy 360, he brings together two worlds that rarely meet, building science and human health, designing homes as living systems that support circadian rhythm, clean air, pure water, low-toxicity materials, and EMF-conscious electrical design. His signature 12 core principles for healthy building are becoming a new benchmark for homes that work with your biology instead of against it. He's also building the Healthy Building Alliance, a national platform connecting healthy-home experts, homeowners, and education.

  • Ep 114: Does an Infrared Sauna Help You Lose Weight? + When to Sauna | Ask Jen

    Ep 114 | The question I get more than any other, you guys: does an infrared sauna help you lose weight? Today I'm giving you the honest answerโ€”not the sales pitch.

    In this Ask Jen minisode, I'm tackling the three sauna questions I hear every single day: whether your infrared sauna can help you lose weight, the best time of day to use it, and whether you should sauna before or after your workout. I'll share what the scale is really telling you (full disclosure: it's mostly water), where the sauna quietly earns its keep, and the personal story behind the 125 pounds I released years ago. Your sauna is a helper, not a magic wandโ€”and once you see how it fits into the bigger wellness wheel, it gets a whole lot easier to use it well.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    [00:00] โ€” Welcome + asking a real person your sauna questions
    [5:05] โ€” Does an infrared sauna help you lose weight? The honest answer
    [06:20] โ€” Water weight vs. fat, and why hydration matters
    [08:15] โ€” What regular sauna use is associated with (circulation, cortisol, sleep, recovery)
    [12:05] โ€” Best time of day to sauna: morning vs. evening
    [17:17] โ€” Sauna before or after your workout (and the cold-vs-heat myth)

    Here's what I want you to walk away with: your sauna isn't the thing that does the workโ€”it's the thing that makes doing the work feel good. Stack it onto the habits you already love, and it quietly supports all of it.

  • Ep 112: Essential Oils for Stress, Sleep & Everyday Life with Lacey Grim

    Ep 112 | If you've ever felt like there are SO. MANY. OPTIONS. when it comes to essential oils and had no idea where to start, this episode is for you. My friend Lacey Grimโ€”a holistic health educator, folk herbalist, and essential oil educatorโ€”joins me to break down what makes an oil worth using, how to use them safely around kids, and simple ways to fold them into your day for better mood, better sleep, and relief from stress and headaches.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    [04:15] โ€“ Lacey's path into essential oils and why she never looked back
    [09:25] โ€“ Pure vs. "Frankenstein" oils, and why purity changes everything

    [26:00] โ€“ Cleaning your home safely with essential oils
    [32:15] โ€“ Oregano, frankincense & peppermint for headaches and immune support
    [42:00] โ€“ Using essential oils safely with children, and building better sleep into your routine
    [54:50] โ€“ Essential oils for the sauna

    You don't need a cabinet full of oils to get started (no judgment if you already have oneโ€”mine's basically a small pharmacy at this point). Lacey shares the handful of multipurpose favorites that do the most work, so you can skip the overwhelm.

  • Ep 111: Improving Sleep and Recovery Using Frequency-Infused Clothing with Brian Burzynski

    Ep 111 | What if your clothes could tell your muscles to let go? Not stretch them, not massage themโ€”just signal them to release. That's not a wellness fantasy. That's what Brian Burzynski built.

    Jen sits down with her friend Brian Burzynski, founder of Intelligent Threads, to talk about something most of us have never considered: that we're walking around in a constant state of muscular tensionโ€”and don't even know it. Life, stress, and years of structural compensation do that. Brian spent 15 years developing frequency-infused textiles with a particle that signals those muscles to release and stay released, supporting structural alignment, deeper sleep recovery, and improved athletic performance. This is the conversation Jen has been wanting to have on this show for two years, and it was worth every minute of the wait.

    This episode is for anyone who feels tight even when they're lying still, wakes up more tired than when they went to bed, or has wondered why the same pain keeps coming back no matter what they try.

    ๐Ÿ•’ In this episode:
    00:00 โ€“ Introduction: Brian's origin story and the ankle injury that started it all
    07:20 โ€“ What muscle compensation is and why your pain might be showing up in the wrong place
    17:33 โ€“ Jen's story: meeting Brian at Paleo FX and what happened to her left arm
    24:40 โ€“ How frequency-infused textiles work and what's inside the fabric
    29:40 โ€“ The sleep line: why nighttime is the most important time to use it
    36:45 โ€“ What's next: neuromuscular activation, EMF support, and emotional well-being layer
    37:47 โ€“ The bodybuilder test: 339 to 570 watts on the third set

    Sleep better. Move better. Stay in the game longer. Brian's work is a reminder that sometimes the body just needs the right signal.

    Meet Brian Burzynski:
    Brian Burzynski has spent over 25 years studying structural alignment and how the body compensates when muscles hold tension in the wrong place. He's the founder and CSO of Intelligent Threads, launched in 2016, and the creator of the Synergy Release Method, which he has practiced out of his clinic in Kerrville, Texas since 2000. Brian has worked with professional athletes, elite sports teams, and people who've tried everything else. His clinic's approach: correct the structure, and let the body do the rest.
