In this episode, I’m catching you up on life lately with Raya as we navigate the almost-two stage of toddlerhood and all the changes that come with this season of motherhood. From transitioning to a different daycare and adjusting to a new routine to navigating big emotions, toddler tantrums, and learning how to regulate our emotions, there’s been a lot happening lately!

I’m opening up about what it’s been like watching Raya grow into her own little person, learning to understand her feelings, and figuring out how to show up for her during the harder moments while also managing my own emotions as a mom. Motherhood has a way of challenging you in ways you never expected, and sometimes the hardest part is remembering that our little ones are still learning how to navigate a world that can feel so big to them.

But the truth is, we’re learning, too. We’re allowed to have hard days, feel overwhelmed, and give ourselves the same patience and understanding we try to give our children.

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with holistic nutritionist and functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner Elizabeth Ayler to unpack the deeper reasons so many women struggle with weight loss, fatigue, bloating, hormone imbalances, and gut issues. Elizabeth shares her own long and difficult health journey, from eczema, anxiety, and chronic digestive issues to uncovering root causes like parasites, mold toxicity, and thyroid dysfunction.

Together, they challenge common health myths, explain why surface-level testing often misses the real problem, and explore why stress, inflammation, and under-addressed hormone shifts can leave women feeling stuck. Elizabeth’s story is a reminder that your body is not broken and that real healing begins when you stop chasing quick fixes and start finding the root cause.

From the very first episode to now, so much has changed. What started as a solo podcast with just me, a mic, and a message, it has grown into something so much bigger! 

In this 50th episode milestone, I’m sharing how the podcast expanded from solo episodes to incredible guest speakers, the transition into video podcasting, and the behind-the-scenes growth that opened the door to brand partnerships and new opportunities I never expected.

This episode is a mix of reflection and real talk from what I’ve learned, how I’ve evolved, and what this podcast has truly taught me along the way and why this is only the beginning.
