The Wellness Process

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Chelsea Parke Goles, founder of Parke, to talk about building the brand from a chance encounter with a vintage denim seller at a Miami farmers market into a company doing $16 million in revenue, all without ever paying for marketing. They get into how she grew Parke through TikTok and community instead of ads, what it's actually like running the business alongside her husband and sister-in-law, and how she's navigating founder life as a brand-new mom. Chelsea also opens up about her C-section birth story and how she stays grounded and present while running a fast-growing company.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down solo for a Q&A covering pregnancy updates, her birth preferences, and how to actually make a good matcha at home. She talks candidly about the highs and lows of her third trimester, why she's stopped accepting free wellness services in exchange for content, and that feeling of knowing you're meant for more when you're stuck professionally. She also walks through her exact matcha method, from water temperature to ratios, and shares the list of birth preferences she's put together with her doula ahead of delivery.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Megan Bentley, known as The Color Countess, a color analyst trained in the 16-season system. They break down the three chroma characteristics that actually determine your palette, undertone, value, and intensity, and why comparing yourself to a friend or family member's "season" doesn't work even when you look alike. Megan shares her own color analysis journey, including the decades she spent misdiagnosed as a "true spring," and explains why getting it right can be such an emotional, identity-shifting experience for her clients. They also get into why AI and quiz-based color analysis tools get it so wrong.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Cory Allen, a meditation teacher and author, to talk about nervous system regulation and what it really takes to feel calm in a chaotic world. They get into his path from a difficult childhood into decades of meditation, the difference between judgment and empathy, and how to spot a regulated nervous system versus a dysregulated one. Cory also shares his honesty, intention, and integrity framework for moving through hard moments without spiraling into self-judgment, and previews the core idea behind his new book, The Quiet Age: that what people really want is permission to be themselves.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Melissa Wood-Tepperberg, founder of Melissa Wood Health. Melissa opens up about what her actual daily meditation practice looks like, and how it took her years to stop treating it like a box to check and start letting it genuinely shape how she moves through hard moments. That same honesty carries into a conversation about the pull she's been feeling to share less online and only from a place of real authenticity, rather than performing for the algorithm. She walks through the difference between living from ego, or "body consciousness," versus soul consciousness, and offers a simple four-step process she leans on whenever a challenge hits: pause, ask what the opportunity is, embrace it, and remember the light lives in you. Along the way they get into her years studying Kabbalah, what it's felt like to loosen her grip and trust instead of white-knuckling her way through life, why she believes consistency beats intensity when it comes to movement, and why keeping her word to herself has become a form of self-respect.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Judith Joseph, a board certified psychiatrist and researcher who led the first ever peer reviewed study on high functioning depression. They talk about her upbringing as a Caribbean immigrant, the pressure to be constantly high achieving, and how she ended up depressed while giving a talk on how to help others get through crisis. Dr. Judith breaks down the difference between burnout and high functioning depression, explains why so many high achievers become pathologically productive as a way to outrun unprocessed pain, and shares her five Vs framework for reclaiming joy: validation, venting, values, vital signs, and vision. They also get into phone addiction, the link between hormones and depression, and why planning joy is not as unromantic as it sounds.

In today's SOLO episode, Elizabeth talks about the difference between chasing goals and actually raising your frequency, and why she believes the universe responds to energy rather than a to-do list. She shares what shifted after a weekend digital detox, why honoring your own wiring matters more than following someone else's routine, and how she moves through her own low and high frequency seasons. She closes out with the real difference between being lucky and being magnetic.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Rachel Goldman, a psychologist specializing in health and behavior change and author of the new book When Life Happens. They talk about why not every season of life needs to be about growth, how to break free of the all or nothing "dieter's mentality," and why maintaining what's working can be its own form of progress. The conversation dives deep into GLP-1s, body image, and the mental health implications of "shrinking bodies" culture, including Dr. Rachel's honest take on treating these medications like a crash diet. They also get into the difference between being physiologically full and emotionally satisfied, mindful eating practices, and how to build real resilience without needing to hit rock bottom first.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Sammy Nussdorf, founder and CEO of Meadow Lane, the buzzy Tribeca gourmet grocer that's been dubbed the "Erewhon of NYC." They dig into the menu obsessions (chicken tendies, the famous grapes, PB&J pockets), how Sammy built the entire business in public on TikTok as @brokebackcontessa, and what it's really like navigating virality, trolls, and "Chicken Nugget-gate" as a first-time restaurant operator. The conversation also gets personal as Sammy opens up about his sobriety journey, from prescription painkillers to a serious ketamine addiction, what finally got him to stop, and how he's approaching recovery today.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with intuitive and spiritual mentor Nikki Novo, host of the Soul-Led Living podcast. They talk about spirit babies, the souls that hover around us before conception and shape everything from pregnancy timing to loss to the identity shift into motherhood. The conversation moves into what Nikki calls the current collective moment, a time when old safety-driven paths no longer reward us and living authentically is what actually works now. They cover tuning into your true self through inner-child work, honoring your own rhythms, and Nikki's daily practices for staying energetically clear.
