Number 1: Breast Cancer Screening Is Broken: What Every Woman Should Know w/ Dr. Jennifer Simmons
I love this conversation so much. At its core, it's about empowerment — education, knowing your options, and taking charge of your own health instead of waiting for someone else to hand you a plan. Dr. Jenn Simmons has spent her career cutting through mainstream noise around breast health, and I love how committed she is to creating something new instead of just accepting the way things have always been done. If you've ever felt confused or scared by the conversation around breast cancer risk, hormones, or screening, this episode will change the way you think about all of it. Here are a few of my biggest takeaways from our conversation: You need a health plan, not just a treatment plan. Conventional medicine is built to treat sickness — it's rarely built to help you build actual health. Dr. Jenn breaks down why so many women are missing this piece entirely. Mammograms miss more than you'd think. Standard mammograms miss up to 40% of breast cancers, and Dr. Jenn explains why the diagnostic difference between mammogram and non-mammogram screening isn't as clear-cut as we've been led to believe. Not every cancer cell becomes cancer. Roughly 25% of the time, cancer cells found in breast tissue never actually progress into cancer — a fact that changes how we should think about diagnosis and next steps. Screening needs to look at the whole picture. Dr. Jenn points out that similar numbers of women die from fractures as from breast cancer, yet our screening conversations rarely account for context like this. You can't make an informed decision without information. From dense breast tissue to hormone replacement therapy, Dr. Jenn walks through what women actually need to know — not just what they've been told — before making decisions about their own health. Send this to a women in your life who needs it! Bio of the guest: Dr. Jenn Simmons didn't just step away from breast cancer surgery — she walked out and sparked a revolution. As the founder of PerfeQTion™ Imaging, she's disrupting the fear, confusion, and medical dogma that have controlled women's breast health for generations. At PerfeQTion™ Imaging, she's transforming how women are screened for breast cancer with technology that's safer, smarter, and kinder to the body — no radiation, no compression, no trauma, because peace of mind shouldn't hurt. She's the author of The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer and host of the Keeping Abreast podcast, and she's on a mission to open PerfeQTion™ Imaging centers across the country and around the world — giving every woman access to safe, painless breast cancer screening, and the power to prevent a diagnosis instead of just reacting to one.

Number 2: Making Nutrition-First Healthcare a Standard, Not a Luxury w/ Dr. Cheryl Lee Eberting
Dr. Cheryl Lee Eberting is paving the way in the functional medicine world. Her focus on nutrition first and prescriptions second is a mission I really align with, and I'm so glad she's tackling this challenge head-on. I think this is going to become a powerful tool for my listeners and honestly, it's an approach I hope the rest of the medical world follows one day. If you've ever left a doctor's appointment feeling unheard or frustrated you don’t have access to the tools you need, this conversation is just for you! Here are a few keys from our discussion: "Normal" labs don't mean optimal health. Cheryl Lee breaks down why so many moms get told everything looks fine on paper while still feeling exhausted, foggy, or just "off" and why that gap is exactly what nutrition-first care is designed to close. Functional medicine doesn't have to be out of reach. Through AZOVA, she's built a way for regular families to access functional medicine doctors, labs, and ongoing monitoring without the traditional cost and access barriers. Monitoring matters more than a one-time test. Instead of a single snapshot of your health, AZOVA's ongoing monitoring piece lets you actually track how your body responds over time, and adjust from there. Supplements should be personal, not generic. Recommendations are built around each person's actual labs and needs, not a one-size-fits-all protocol. You don't have to wait to start. Cheryl Lee shares small, practical steps a mom can take this week to start moving toward nutrition-first health, even before signing up for anything. Tune in now and share this one with a friend who is looking for access to more “whole”istic wellness. About our Guest: Dr. Cheryl Lee Eberting is a former NIH scientist, physician, and serial entrepreneur who founded AZOVA, a patented digital health platform helping people access affordable, personalized preventive care — from at-home lab testing to integrative primary care. She's been named Utah's #1 Female in Technology, an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year, and led AZOVA to be named Utah's fastest-growing company in 2023. Her mission is simple: build a healthcare system that's accessible, affordable, and actually helps people extend their healthy lifespan.

Number 4: Clothing 101: What's Really Touching Your Skin w/ Hannah Dunning
I've been on my non-toxic /less-toxic journey for almost 20 years now, and clothing is still one of the areas I'm just barely getting into. That's the thing about a health journey, everyone is at a different step. Maybe this episode is old news for you, or maybe it's the first time you've ever thought about what's touching your skin all day long. Wherever you're starting from, just take it one step at a time. The more we as consumers ask questions and demand better, the more this industry has to change. I loved this conversation with Hannah and everything she's doing in this space. It's such a good reminder of the power of one voice. What she's built started with her just asking questions, and now she's working to change an entire industry. Here are a few of my biggest takeaways from our conversation: Check your underwear! Hannah's research points to our undergarments — especially bras and sports bras — as some of the most important pieces to reconsider, since they sit directly against sensitive tissue for hours at a time. Sweat changes everything. When our pores open up during a workout (or just a hot day), our skin absorbs more of whatever our clothes are made of and treated with — which makes workout gear one of the first places to upgrade. Not all "certified clean" labels mean the same thing. GOTS certification actually tests the finished garment for over 100 different chemicals, which is a much higher bar than a lot of the sustainability buzzwords on clothing tags. "Natural" fabric isn't always the full story. Hannah walked us through why Tencel lyocell tends to be a cleaner process than conventional bamboo, even though both get marketed as eco-friendly. Our clothing laws haven't caught up. The regulations governing what's allowed in American clothing are decades old, which is part of why Hannah is working directly with brands, manufacturers, and even House Representatives to push for the country's first clothing safety bill. Share this with a friend looking to upgrade their closet! Bio: Hannah Dunning is a textile health advocate, founder of the world's first Clean Fashion Consulting firm, and founder of The Clean Clothing Coalition. She advises fashion brands, collaborates with manufacturers, and works alongside policymakers to advance transparency and higher safety standards for the chemicals used in clothing. Her work focuses on bridging science, industry, and public policy to help drive meaningful reform in the textile sector.

Number 5: The Neuroscience of Becoming Your Best Self w/ Craig Manning
This might genuinely be my favorite episode I've ever recorded! Dr. Craig Manning completely shifted how I think about stress, fear, and the stories we tell ourselves every single day. I walked away from this conversation seeing my own mind differently, and I think you will too — especially if you're a parent trying to raise kids who talk to themselves with kindness instead of criticism. Here are a few of my biggest takeaways from our conversation: Fear isn't real — we create it. Dr. Manning explained that fear doesn't exist in reality; it's something our brain manufactures. Once you understand that, you can start choosing a different response. Learning is the opposite of fear. The more we're in a state of genuine learning and curiosity, the less room fear has to take over — and chronic stress makes learning (and remembering) so much harder. Self-talk is neuroscience, not just a buzzword. We hear "self-talk" everywhere on social media, but Dr. Manning breaks down what's actually happening in the brain — and how inaccurate self-talk quietly reshapes our behavior. Discipline and self-criticism are not the same thing. One builds you up, one tears you down, and most of us have been mixing them up for years. Kids learn their self-talk from watching us. One small shift in how we speak to ourselves tonight could start rewiring how our kids talk to themselves for life. Everyone could benefit from listening to this podcast! Bio of the guest: Dr. Craig Manning is a Human Performance Consultant and bestselling author of The Fearless Mind: Five Essential Steps to Higher Performance. He's been an Adjunct Professor of Performance Psychology at Brigham Young University for over fifteen years and serves as a Mental Strength Coach for the university's athletic department. His clients include the Milwaukee Bucks, US Ski and Snowboarding teams, Red Bull High Performance, and organizations around the world. Dr. Manning's research shows that Cognitive Control — the ability to control one's own mind — predicts success better than IQ or family wealth. His formula: Potential + Training – Interference = High Performance. Through his methodology, he helps individuals, teams, and organizations acquire the mental performance skills that show up consistently in high performers, unlocking greater potential at the core.
