If you've got nutrition questions of any kind, either for yourself or for your kids, you're about to get those questions answered.

I'm joined today by holistic nutritionist, wellness expert, celebrity health coach, best selling author of 2 books, and mother of 2 boys, Kelly Leveque.

Kelly has been featured in Vogue, Shape, Lauren Conrad, E News, Mind Body Green, and more, and she's worked with A-List celebrities including Jennifer Garner, Molly Sims, Chelsea Handler, Jessica Alba and Emma Rossum.

Kelly's approach to nutrition is down to earth, easy to follow, and empowering. Kelly doesn't do diets. Instead, her approach to nutrition is one based on science, common sense, and freedom.

Today we discuss the importance of blood sugar, how to manage cravings, how to manage energy (and stop having energy crashes), and how to build a meal for both yourself and your kids that will optimize health (one that you'll actually want to eat)!

This is an hour packed with useful nutrition information that will ultimately transform your and your family's relationship with food and nutrition in the best possible way. Enjoy!

If you've ever given birth, experienced infertility, endometriosis, postpartum pelvic health conditions like diastasis recti, prolapse, incontinence, bowel trouble, or generally just have a pelvis, today's episode is for you.

I'm joined by Dr. Grace Abruzzo, DPT, who shares her holistic approach to this very Western modality of Physical Therapy. Dr. Grace is a trauma-informed Doctor of Physical Therapy who believes the mind, body and spirit are connected. We hold our traumas within our tissues, and she helps her patients connect to and release those traumas.

Among the conditions mentioned above, Dr. Grace gives her opinion on episiotomies, as well as on the least optimal birthing position for a birthing person (spoiler alert: it happens to be the most commonly recommended position).

This episode is like a warm hug that is simultaneously packed with pertinent advice to anyone with a pelvis!

Have you ever sat down to think about just what your kids are learning in school And how they are learning it?

Oftentimes in school, kids are told what to think, not how to think it. Not all the time. But a lot of the time.

The truth is, our educational system isn't really designed to nurture self confidence and trust in oneself. Our educators are the true heroes of our time, no doubt. But is there a better way to educate our children such that both teacher and student can learn from each other in the process?

Matt Beaudreau thinks that there is. Matt is the founder of Acton Academy Placer and Acton Academy Sacramento. As a career educator, Matt has delivered TEDx talks, consulted with Universities, written books, and created programs that have helped to push education into the 21st century for teens across America. He currently hosts The Essential 11 podcast, which focuses on gaining world-class advice from prominent guests in business, media, sports, education, and entertainment.

Beaudreau is also a world-renowned keynote speaker, speaking to over 250,000 people across the globe with clients ranging from Lockheed Martin and the United States Air Force to Caterpillar and Honeywell.

On the show today, we talk about a new model for education, one that encourages critical thinking, goal setting - both individually and as a collective, socratic conversations, learning how to think vs what to think, character building and so much more.

If you've got a child about to be in school or currently in school, you cannot afford to miss this episode.

If you're in your reproductive years, are currently pregnant or trying to get pregnant, or have experienced miscarriages or infertility, today's episode is going to be a ray of light.

I'm joined by Ronit Menashe and Vida Delrahim, two mamas who founded a prenatal vitamin company for both men and women. It's called WeNatal, and it was born after both Ronit and Vida experienced miscarriages within a week of each other. Their doctors gave them the usual spiel (your eggs are old, it happens, try again), but Ronit and Vida wanted better answers.

They dug into the research and found that men account for 50% of infertility and pregnancy health but no one was talking about it! They set out to create a prenatal vitamin company for men to increase the quality of sperm. But along the way, they realized that women's prenatals needed an overhaul.

So they got to work and teamed up with key medical advisors like Dr. Mark Hyman, Chris Kresser and Kelly Leveque to formulate the cleanest, most bioavailable prenatal vitamins as affordably as they could (without compromising on quality) for both men and women.

Theirs is a holistic approach to conception that involves both the body and the mind: their prenatals come with a Journal that supports couples through this crucial time frame and guides them on manifesting the family of their dreams.

They are truly transforming prenatal health and we are here for it!

Today's show can be summed up in one question:

Why would you tolerate anything less than loving your life?

Today's episode is for moms who are interested in seeking peace with a sense of urgency. It's for women in motherhood who want to eliminate stressful beliefs that leave them suffering from burden, overwhelm and heartache. It's for women who want to find their personal freedom and inner peace so that they can be present at any moment, as mothers and as powerful women.
