Today is all about introducing something new and a discussion around neuroplasticity (how we can change our brain) and the things we use to do that. I dive into meditation-don’t let this throw you, the science behind how to train your brain to move into different states, give your brain and your body a reset, and tapping into simple and easy ways to deal with stress in a new way.

Figuring out how to help our kids (regardless of age) navigate the world since 2020 has been a challenge for many parents I’ve talked with. Today I’m joined by the creator of the Instinctual Parent Coaching Program, Delsey Daruwalla for a conversation that spans helping our kids (and really ourselves) navigate a world of anxiety, trauma, changes in social norms and so much more. No matter the age of your kids, this is a conversation we all could use.

Delsey Daruwalla is the founder of ‘The Instinctual Parent’, a coaching program for parents who want to learn to foster cooperative & harmonious relationships with their children.

She’s a chiropractor by trade and mother of 2 boys, as well the founder & CEO of ‘Functional Health’ a chronic pain & stress practice in Auckland, New Zealand.

Delsey has spent years working with people struggling to deal with stress, trauma, anxiety, mood, and healthy habit formation. And through her own experiences, clinical experience & personal research, she discovered a lot of the causes came from how we are parented which pushed her to create a method parents could trust to get the results.

A few weeks ago I had a bit of a soapbox moment when NPR published an article about natural immunity following some “new” data around COVID. I’ll save my sarcastic comments. Having had a nasty (non-COVID) cold the last week myself, I thought it was as good a time as any to revisit what immunity really is, how we can improve or lose it, and what it truly means to be healthy.

Heavy painful periods? Mood swings? Stubborn weight gain? Hormonal acne? Gut issues? Menopause symptoms? Years on hormonal birth control? We’re tackling all of these things and more on today’s episode with Functional Physician’s Assistant and women’s hormone expert Kate Vazquez. Our conversation goes into the nitty-gritty of what causes these imbalances and how we can start to address them naturally and with far more understanding than we usually find in western medicine.

Since 2020 mental health needs have increased dramatically as fear and uncertainty have led to an influx of anxiety and depression among all ages. Even I experienced the signs of anxiety as we moved further into the pandemic last year. As we started another crisis affecting the entire world last week, I decided today was a good day to dive into the importance of protecting our own mental health (not in ignorance, but in knowing our own needs) in the coming weeks and months.

When is the last time you ate organ meat? Ie heart, kidneys, lungs, liver, etc? Not even 100 years ago, organs were eaten far more often than they are today. They also provide a host of nutrients and health benefits that are missing from our daily nutrition today. I’m joined by Chef James Barry who has a plethora of information to share about not just eating nose to tail, but also how to start bringing home cooking, a renewed relationship with food and meals back into your home. We also dive deep into how to encourage picky kid eaters to expand their habits and find the time and joy in eating and cooking again.

James Barry’s 16 + years in the culinary field started as a private chef cooking for celebrities such as Tom Cruise, Mariska Hargitay, George Clooney, Gerard Butler, Sean “Puffy” Combs, Barbra Streisand, and John Cusack. Most recently, James launched his first functional food product, Pluck, an organ-based, all-purpose seasoning. It's the first of its kind and an amazingly easy and delicious way for people to get organ meats into their diet.

James is also a published cookbook author having co-authored the recipes in Margaret Floyd’s book Eat Naked and co-authored the follow-up cookbook The Naked Foods Cookbook. He most recently co-authored the recipes in Dr. Alejandro Junger’s book, Clean 7.

On Feb 10th, Emerge hit 2 years, 150 episodes, and close to 75 interviews with women’s health and leadership thought leaders from all over the world. I almost skipped over saying anything about it or celebrating, because that’s just what I normally do! Today I unpack a little bit of that mindset that keeps us from celebrating our accomplishments and share some of the milestones I’ve hit in the podcasting world in the past two years. It’s a short but sweet encouragement to all of us not to forget to celebrate, even when it seems like something small!

Today I’m joined by Christian Elliot-longtime coach, husband, father of five, and co-founder (with his wife Nina) of True Whole Human.
