Trust Issues: A Lifestyle, Business & Wellness Podcast with Erika Auckland

Should you send your child to daycare? If you asked my guest today, she’d say absolutely NOT.

Erica Komisar is a psychological consultant bringing parenting and work/life workshops to clinics, schools, corporations, and childcare settings. She’s also the author of several books, including Being There: Why Prioritizing Motherhood in the First Three Years Matters and has appeared on major media networks such as CBS, ABC, FOX, and NPR.

I first discovered Erica’s work on Instagram – she was interviewed on Alex Clark’s “The Spillover Podcast” and I came across a clip on her feed of Erica talking about the emotional effects of sending infants to daycare, and I just knew I had to have her on the show. 
In this conversation, we’re talking all about parenting and childhood mental illness, and what we can do as moms and dads to ensure the health and mental wellbeing of our kids.

Today, we are diving deep into one of my favorite topics:  preparing for pregnancy! My guest, Loren Sofia of Innate Fertility, has played a significant role in my own pregnancy journey and I can’t wait for you to hear her insights on what most doctors don’t tell you, how to prepare your body for a healthy pregnancy, and nourishing your body through postpartum!

After healing herself from the birth control pill Loren knew she wanted to empower both women and men with the tools and knowledge to optimize their fertility and wellbeing, putting their best food forward as they step into a thriving pregnancy, a resilient postpartum, and joyful parenthood.

Her methodology is rooted in deep understanding and respect for the physiology of the body, combining the wisdom of traditional nutrition with a bio-energetic, pro-metabolic, and bio-individual approach. She is going to talk to us today about how to prepare your body for pregnancy, how to thrive during pregnancy, and how to have a resilient postpartum experience! Click play to dive in!

I have news for you… you’re probably making the same mistake I did and it’s ruining your income potential.

Yes, you heard me right! One of the biggest breakthroughs in my own entrepreneurship journey was realizing that simply gathering more information wasn't the solution.

Let me share a bit about my experience... I'm a lifelong learner. I love a good book, and I'll definitely have a list of podcast episodes to listen to on a road trip. But despite all this learning, I wasn’t making any money. I had pages of notes, filled notebooks, and several courses collecting dust in my inbox, yet my bank account remained stagnant.

The problem was information overload. Many of us fall into the trap of believing that the more we know, the more successful we'll be. But this is a misconception. Just learning more without taking action can create an illusion of progress, making us feel busy and productive without actually moving the needle.

Can you relate?  If so, you're not alone. In this episode, we’ll explore why more information isn't the answer and what you need to do instead to start seeing real income growth. Click play and let’s get started!

In 14 years I’ve learned a LOT about what NOT to do and what to do instead to get massive results. In this workshop, I’ll be walking you through my 3-step blueprint to go from $0 - $100k in passive income with your own digital products, courses and offers.
