Why didn't we choose international adoption? Do we have an open adoption? What about children waiting to be adopted in foster care? How long did the process take? What does adoption cost? How do you know if you're doing it ethically? How do you talk about adoption with your kids?
Today, I'm answering these questions and more as we kick off our 10-week Good Stuff series all about why family matters. I figured it was a good time to share a bit more about my own family (while maintaining the highest privacy and respect for both my son and his first family).
I hope we can all remember that families look and form differently, and that if you or someone you know is considering adoption, this episode can be a good resource to learn more!

Today's a more personal episode. When I shared on social media that I'm feeling a little burned out, I got a huge reaction from people. So I wanted to share what's going on behind the scenes in my life in hopes that it helps you feel less alone during seasons of burnout in your own life.

There's so much noise out there about what we should eat, so I had the HONOR of going directly to the leading global expert of nutrition science, Dr. Christopher Gardner.
Dr. Gardner is Stanford's Director of Nutrition Studies, former chair of the American Heart Association's Nutrition Committee, and has led more than twenty large-scale randomized clinical trials related to what we eat. You might remember him from Netflix's You Are What You Eat: A Twin Experiment!
In this episode, Dr. Gardner breaks down the real science behind nutrition guidelines and recommendations, exposes which popular diet claims have zero scientific backing, and helps separate credible nutrition research from social media noise.
Here are just a few specifics we discuss:
Dr. Gardner has spent his career studying the science of nutrition — so if you want evidence-based answers about what you should really be eating, don't miss this episode.

I wanted someone who isn't just pointing out that movement is good for our mental health, but who's actually doing something to help us bridge that gap.
So today we have the pleasure of hearing from Rio Wilson, licensed counselor and founder of the Brain-Body Therapy app. She joins me to unpack the connection between our brains and our bodies.
I share about a wild time when moving my body helped me get over a major heartbreak, and Rio walks us through which types of movement works best for different mental health conditions, where to start, and more.
