Ever hit a goal and still feel like a total fraud? Like you're just faking it and someone’s going to find out? That’s imposter syndrome—and it’s way more common than we think. In this episode Christine Blosdale and I unpack why high-achieving people often feel the least worthy—and how to stop letting that voice run the show. This conversation won’t fix imposter syndrome overnight. But it might help you call it what it is: a lie. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t belong, even when you’ve worked your ass off to get where you are, this one’s for you.

A year can go by so fast and so slowly at the same time. It's been a year since my PMDD diagnosis and giving up our dream of having children with infertility. It's been rough and I've learned a lot, changed a lot, and have definitely cried a lot. Dealing with a new type of grief has been humbling and lonely, but the life I've started creating for myself and my family has been a blessing. If you or a loved one are dealing with grief, infertility, or PMDD, this episode is the raw reality that we share. But we have each other.

Domestic violence impacts people of all genders, ages, and backgrounds—and too often, it goes unnoticed or misunderstood. In this essential episode, we’re joined by Jen Pencek from Centre Safe, an organization dedicated to empowering survivors and eliminating violence. Jen helps us unpack what domestic violence really looks like, including the often-overlooked emotional, psychological, and financial forms of abuse. You'll learn how to recognize the warning signs, what to say (and what not to say) if someone confides in you, and how to offer meaningful, nonjudgmental support. Whether you’re a friend, a family member, or someone who simply wants to be a better ally, this conversation will equip you with the insight and tools to support survivors and be part of lasting change.

Trigger warning: This episode includes discussions of domestic violence, abuse, and trauma. Listener discretion is advised.

You can be healthy AND embrace your culture, despite what society and doctors say. For years I struggled with trying to be "healthy", and doctors told me the only way to do that was to trade in my tortillas for a salad fork. Bland and pretty boring. Excited is an understatement for how I felt when I finally found today's guest, Dalina Soto, Founder & Bilingual Dietitian of Nutritiously Yours & Your Latina Nutritionist. In this episode Dalina discusses the importance of culturally sensitive nutrition, the role of registered dietitians, and the misconceptions surrounding nutrition education. She emphasizes the value of enjoying cultural foods while managing health, and has some great advice for anyone who wants to do just that. If you've ever been told your cultural foods are "bad" and "unhealthy", then this episode is for you!

Don't knock it till ya try it. We've all heard that phrase, yet we're always shocked when we try something new and realize we actually LOVE it.

Today we're chatting with the very talented Alecia Imbert, who at the young age of 50 has found a new passion that makes her feel as excited as a kid on Christmas morning. Alecia's journey to find her new passion is filled with so much love and joy, it's what I wish for every listener of this show!

Getting a job is WAAAY harder than it was even a decade ago. Requirements have changed, the process has changed, and it seems like getting ghosted by recruiters is a new thing too.

Where the hell has this year gone?! We're halfway through 2025, which makes this the perfect time for a thoughtful mid-year check-in. In this episode, we'll chat through a series of reflective questions to help us pause, take stock of the past six months, and realign our goals and intentions for the rest of the year. Whether you’ve been crushing it or just trying to stay afloat, this conversation is a chance to get honest with yourself, celebrate progress, and reset with purpose.

You're not meant to stay the same person. Change is inevitable, we've all heard the phrase. And that doesn't exclude us. I'm turning 34 and I'm such a different person from when I was 12, 20, 28. I've been immature, a b*tch, a friend, a loyal daughter, a scientist, a wife, and so many other things in my life so far. Without the role of becoming a mom I had an existential crisis of who I was meant to be, so this past year I really got to know myself all over again. It's been fun, hard, playful, exciting, scary, and everything in between. But there's three things I wish I could back and tell all the other versions of me. Buckle up buttercup, we're going on a nostalgic ride!

TW: Mention of suicidal tendencies.

This is probably the hardest episode I've done. It's been almost a year since our infertility journey ended and today my husband is helping me share my experience through it all. From IVF, to societal pressures, to almost losing everything, this journey changed me as a person, as a woman, and as a wife. It might not have had the happy ending we dreamed of, but we got the ending we deserved—a healthy one. For anyone else starting their infertility journey or staying strong through IVF, know that we are here for you.
