The OrganiMama Podcast

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, we dive into the world of eczema with guest Madison Yount — and this conversation goes far beyond steroid creams and surface-level solutions. Together, we unravel the many layers behind eczema: from environmental triggers like mold, nickel, and household products to the gut-skin connection that affects both mothers and their little ones. Madison opens up about her own journey navigating chronic health challenges and how understanding the root cause is the key to true healing.

We talk about the overlooked role of maternal health: how a breastfeeding mother’s gut, stress levels, and emotional regulation can directly impact her baby’s skin. The conversation also explores how overwhelming it can feel for parents trying to sift through conflicting information, and why a holistic, whole-family approach can make such a profound difference. From addressing food sensitivities and considering supplements to recognizing when pediatric care only looks at the symptoms themselves, this episode offers practical, compassionate guidance for moms looking for answers.

Both Madison and Kristen share how trust in God, prayer, and spiritual grounding can bring comfort and clarity during the hardest seasons of parenting. If you're seeking holistic tools, emotional encouragement, and faith-based support as you navigate your child’s eczema journey, this episode will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and far less alone.

In this episode, Kristen shares her perspective on healing from interstitial cystitis (IC) by exploring the connection between nutrition, gut health, hormone balance, nervous system regulation, detoxification, chiropractic care, and emotional well-being. After receiving a diagnosis that came with a pamphlet on managing symptoms (because IC is labeled an incurable disease), Kristen decided to take matters into her own hands to heal, and 2 years later, was healed from all flares of IC. 

You'll learn why conventional approaches often focus on symptom relief but practical (and often free!) lifestyle strategies often help reduce inflammation and restore balance. Whether you're newly diagnosed, have been struggling with IC pain for years, or are simply curious about natural approaches to chronic health conditions, this conversation offers hope, education, and actionable insights.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen sits down with Eric Ritter — the creator behind an affordable, at-home lead testing kit designed to help families protect their homes and their kids. Eric breaks down why lead exposure is still such a big issue today, especially because it often goes completely unnoticed until children begin showing symptoms. They chat about why the old-school swab tests aren’t cutting it anymore and how fluorescent testing offers a much more accurate way to detect lead hiding in your home.

We also dig into the many places lead can be found — from aging paint and plumbing in older homes to unexpected household items you’d never think to question. Eric explains how diet plays a surprising role in how our bodies absorb lead, and why testing regularly is one of the smartest steps parents can take. We touch on the gaps in current regulations, the lack of public awareness, and the long-term impact lead exposure can have on children’s development.

This episode is all about empowering families with proactive, practical tools to keep their homes safer. Tune in to learn how small steps can make a big difference in preventing lead poisoning.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen dives into the hidden world of clothing materials and why what you wear matters more than most people realize. From microplastics and synthetic fabrics to the surprising ways plastic-based clothing may impact both our bodies and the environment, this conversation breaks down what’s really hiding in our closets.

Kristen unpacks commonly marketed “healthy” and “eco-friendly” materials — including activewear, bamboo fabrics, and other popular options — and explains where marketing often misses the full picture. She also shares safer, more sustainable alternatives like organic cotton, ethically sourced wool, linen, and properly processed hemp, along with practical tips for shopping for clothing and accessories with less toxic load.

Whether you’re cleaning out your closet, shopping for your family, or simply curious about what your clothes are made of, this episode will leave you feeling more informed and empowered to make choices that better support your health, your home, and the planet.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen sits down with Megan McCue to uncover the often-overlooked risks behind one of the most normalized cosmetic procedures today: Botox. What began as a routine injection quickly turned into a life-altering experience when Megan developed iatrogenic botulism — leaving her with debilitating neurological symptoms, difficulty swallowing, intense anxiety, and a long, complicated recovery.

As a speech language pathologist, Megan brings both personal experience and clinical insight to this conversation, helping bridge the gap between how Botox is marketed to women and the reality of what can happen when the body reacts negatively. Kristen and Megan also dive into the cultural pressures driving the demand for cosmetic injections, the lack of true informed consent surrounding Botox, and why women deserve far more transparency when it comes to the products and procedures marketed to them. Through her advocacy work, Megan is now helping others recognize symptoms, ask better questions, and prioritize long-term health over quick cosmetic fixes.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, we sit down with Mallory Henderson to walk through her powerful journey of health and weight loss transformation, infertility, emotional healing, and reclaiming nourishment — both physically and spiritually. Mallory opens up about years of struggling with her health, the heartbreak of infertility and secondary infertility, and how learning to truly nourish her body became the turning point that changed everything.

Mallory shares how weight loss happened once she began treating her body with kindness, feeding it well, and embracing pro-metabolic principles. But even more striking is her honesty about the emotional work required along the way — from confronting feelings of inadequacy to reframing her identity as a mother. She reminds listeners that nourishment is far more than what’s on your plate; it’s also about self-worth, grace, and the healing that happens when you stop punishing yourself and start listening to your body.

Throughout the conversation, Mallory highlights the importance of community, accountability, and the small daily habits — like meal prepping — that have radically simplified life for her family. She encourages women to celebrate life and motherhood in all its forms while giving themselves permission to grow at their own pace.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen sits down with PCOS expert Hannah (@theconsciousnutritionist) to unpack what polycystic ovarian syndrome really is—and why so many women are given incomplete answers. Hannah explains that ovarian cysts are often a symptom, not the root cause, and breaks down the deeper drivers behind PCOS including blood sugar imbalance, inflammation, and adrenal stress. She also shares her own personal journey navigating PCOS, from birth control use to the nutrition and lifestyle shifts that helped her heal.

Together, they dive into practical ways to support the body naturally through nourishing meals, balanced blood sugar, and reducing everyday inflammation. Hannah shares why prioritizing protein, fiber, and healthy fats matters, how cooking methods can impact hormone health, and where supplements like inositol may be helpful.

Kristen and Hannah also discuss the often-overlooked role of stress, true rest, gut health, and self-advocacy when it comes to healing hormones. Listeners will walk away with realistic tips for meal prep, building supportive routines, and feeling empowered to ask better questions about their health.

Whether you’ve been diagnosed with PCOS, suspect hormone imbalance, or simply want to better understand your body, this episode offers clarity, encouragement, and actionable tools for long-term wellness.
