Eve Rodsky is the author of the New York Times bestselling book Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) where she applies her expertise in organizational management to a problem closer to home – a system for couples seeking equity, efficiency, and peace in their home.

And on Dec 28th, 2021, she released her newest book called "Find Your Unicorn Space: Reclaim Your Creative Life in a Too-Busy World" which is a practical program for reclaiming the natural gifts, interests and talents that make you uniquely you.

• Time is our most valuable currency - what happens when we keep that time instead of giving it away to others
• Eve's journey from climbing the corporate ladder to becoming a specialist in gender division of labor 
• What is Unicorn Space and the 3 C's to achieving it
• How her Fair Play cards are distributed in her household

This episode originally aired on May 10, 2021. This previously published episode is a favorite for mom and kid wellness.

Whitney English is a registered dietitian, nutritionist, certified personal trainer, and a mama of two little ones (ages 6 months and 2 years). 

She's the creator of the media platform Whitney E. RD, where she serves up the scoop on food and fitness trends, and co-creator of Plant-Based Juniors, an online destination for all parents looking to get more plants on the plate. 

Whitney earned her master's degree in Nutrition, Healthspan, and Longevity and completed her dietetic internship at the University of Southern California's Norris Cancer Center and Keck Medical Center as well as BreatheHealing Life Center. Her experience working in cancer research fueled her curiosity for using food and fitness to promote lasting health and helped shape her Predominantly Plant-Based philosophy. 

Whitney also is the co-author of The Plant-Based Baby and Toddler coming out next Tuesday, May 18th! They're offering some great pre-order bonuses so head over the link below for more info.

In this episode, Whitney debunks some of the top myths surrounding plant-based eating using her evidence-based research while sharing strategies on how to get your babies, toddlers and kids to eat a predominantly plant-based diet. She also talks about plant-based nutrition during pregnancy and shared insight into the 3-day water fast she completed (pre-pregnancy and breastfeeding) to help with cell regeneration (aka autophagy) and longevity.

Even if you're an omnivore (or recovering paleo eater) like myself, her tips helped inspire me to find ways to get more veggies into my kids meals and have piqued my interest in the studies behind fasting and longevity.

So whether or not you are plant-based curious or wondering how to get your kids to eat more greens, listen in!

Ever feel like you've been hit by a truck? Well, Jo Schaalman has and she is an expert in healing and recovery.

Jo was a state champion gymnast, a nationally ranked diver and a diving coach. While prepping for medical school she was t-boned by a semi-truck during a cross-country bike tour. As a result of the accident, Jo was told that she wouldn't live a normal life, let alone become a doctor. Her recovery process was both physically and emotionally grueling, but through her healing she was able to unlock some universal healing principles that could not only help her, but other people as well. These discoveries became key foundations of the Conscious Cleanse. Because of her experience, Jo is driven to help people who think healing is out of their reach. Although she never became a doctor, Jo has been able to fulfill her lifelong mission of helping people heal.

Jo Schaalman is the co-author of the book The Conscious Cleanse, a best-selling, step-by-step guide to help you live your most vibrant life and the newest book, The Conscious Cleanse Cookbook. She has led thousands of people through the online supported cleanse with her accessible and light-hearted approach. The Conscious Cleanse program been dubbed "the real deal" by Bobbi Brown, founder and chief creative officer, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.

On top of it all, Jo is also a mom of 2, ages 1 and 7 years old.

In this episode, Jo and I chat about...

• Her personal journey from getting hit by a truck to overcoming pain
• How the conscious cleanse was created and the basis behind it
• Three things to think about everyday when you're eating and when you want to feel better
• Habits busy moms can implement to set themselves up for success around nutrition
