Stress is an unavoidable part of life—but it doesn’t have to define it. In this transformative episode, Brandi and Desiree dive deep into the science, emotion, and spirituality of stress resilience—and how to move from living in survival mode to thriving in creation.

Together, they explore how stress impacts the body, the mind, and even the personality—and share real, practical ways to rebuild resilience and return to balance through breathwork, meditation, adaptogens, and mindset mastery.

In this episode:

· Understanding Stress -Different types of stress, how your body perceives them, and why it doesn’t know the difference between a real event and a thought.

· The Addiction to Stress - How adrenaline and cortisol can create emotional “highs” that keep us unconsciously repeating the same stressful patterns, and how to break the cycle.

· The Science of Stress Resilience - The HPA axis, the role of the adrenal glands, and how chronic activation leads to burnout, inflammation, and imbalance.

· Adaptogens for Balance - Why Reishi is known as the “Mushroom of Immortality” and how it nourishes the nervous system, regulates cortisol, supports GABA, and promotes calm, grounded energy.

· The Refractory Period & Emotional Intelligence - How long stress hormones actually stay in your body (90 seconds!), and how to shorten your emotional recovery time with awareness and breathwork.

· Meditation & Brainwave Mastery - How meditation shifts your brain from high beta (stress) into healing alpha and theta states, and why this is the most powerful way to create the future you desire.

· Building Your Daily Resilience Toolbox

Meet Our Guest: Leah Brueggemann, Functional DiagnosticNutritional® Practitioner - hormone health coach & host of Balancing Hormones Naturally

What we talk about

· Leah’s path from professional musician to hormonepractitioner—and the long, non-linear healing journey that built her empathy (fibroadenomas, painful periods, missing cycles).

· Functional mushrooms in real life & practice: how Leahuses cordyceps and the 3-mushroom blend for sustainable energy and quick wins; reishi for stress/HPA support and androgen metabolism; maitake and chaga for blood-sugar support and resilience; lion’s mane + chaga combos for Lyme-related brain fog; turkey tail for family immune support.

· “Reishi baby” 💛 — Leah’s pregnancy experience with therapeutic dosing and why dose matters.

· Kids & mushrooms: sneaky ways to serve blends(smoothies, cocoa, popsicles, energy bites) and why Leah avoids cordyceps for little ones.

· The “boring basics” that change everything: sleep, bloodsugar, nervous system hygiene—and how mushrooms amplify what you’re already doing.

· Men’s health & fertility: why cordyceps isn’t just forgym days.

Key takeaways

· Symptoms are messages, not enemies—start with foundations,then let mushrooms multiply the benefits.

· Dose matters. Therapeutic ranges often exceed“one-capsule” marketing—know your extraction ratios.

· For pregnancy questions, personalize: reishi + maitake canbe gentler entry points; use your care team and your data.

· For families: reishi for the wind-down, lion’s mane forschool-day focus, turkey tail for immune “seatbelts.”

In this episode we’re finally spilling the tea on our community’s most-requested single mushroom: maitake (Grifola frondosa), a.k.a. Hen of the Woods. Brandi and Dr. Des share why Eversio chose maitake for a standalone fruiting-body, hot-water extract capsule - and how it supports:

- immune resilience

- metabolic health (blood sugar + lipids)

- women’s hormones

You’ll hear the origin story, dosing decisions (hello, Health Canada monograph), cultivation nerdery, research highlights (PCOS + ovulation, insulin sensitivity), and why we’re keeping the extract whole (not isolated fractions). We also gush about ergothioneine, the “longevity vitamin,” and how to pair maitake with our upcoming 5 Mushroom Blend.
