EPISODE #108 — SEPT 4, 2026

If cutting out certain foods makes your bloating, gas, reflux, or other digestive symptoms disappear, it’s easy to assume you’ve found the problem. But feeling better without a certain food doesn’t necessarily mean that food was the root cause of your symptoms. Sometimes you’ve simply removed the trigger while the reason your body stopped tolerating…

EPISODE #107 — AUG 28, 2026

Your menstrual cycle can tell you so much more about your health than whether your period shows up every month. In fact, it’s one of the first things I look at with my female clients because changes in your cycle can give us clues about your hormones, ovulation, nutrient status, thyroid, metabolism, stress response, and overall health. In this episode, we’re…

EPISODE #106 — AUG 21, 2026

It’s been a little while since we’ve had a proper catch-up, and there’s been a lot going on behind the scenes over here.

I talk about what life has looked like lately, some of the physical challenges I’ve been navigating, motherhood…

EPISODE #105 — AUG 14, 2026

In this episode, we’re looking back at some of the most-listened-to podcast conversations over the past few months. We talked about how your past life experiences can physically shape your body, why getting back to the foundations changed the way I approach my own health, what healthy female hormone function actually looks like, and why…

EPISODE #104 — AUG 7, 2026

Hormones influence so much more than your menstrual cycle or fertility. They affect your energy, mood, metabolism, sleep, brain health, and so much more. Yet many women don't start thinking about their hormones until they're trying to get pregnant or beginning perimenopause. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Jaclyn Smeaton, Naturopathic Doctor…

EPISODE #103 — JUL 31, 2026

It feels like there's a supplement for everything these days. Hormone supplements, gut supplements, cortisol supplements, metabolism supplements... the list never ends. But how do you know which ones your body actually needs? In this episode, I'm sharing how I think about supplements as a functional practitioner – including when they're…

EPISODE #102 — JUL 24, 2026

In this bonus Q&A episode of my Functional Lab Testing Series, I'm answering some of the most common questions I received throughout the series.

EPISODE #101 — JUL 17, 2026

After you've addressed the foundations, how do you know whether it's time to dig deeper? And more importantly, how do you know which advanced tests are actually worth running? With thousands of functional lab tests available today, it's easy to feel like you need to test everything. But more testing doesn't always lead to better answers. In this fifth episode…

EPISODE #100 — JUL 10, 2026

When most people hear the word "metabolism," they think about weight or how many calories they're burning. But your metabolism is so much more than that. It influences your energy, brain function, stress response, hormones, recovery, and your body's ability to adapt to everyday life. In this fourth episode of my Functional Lab Testing Series, we're exploring…

EPISODE #99 — JUL 3, 2026

Hormones are one of the most misunderstood areas of women's health. Too often we're told our hormones are "normal" because a blood test measured one or two hormones at a single moment in time. But hormones are much more complex than that. In this third episode of my Functional Lab Testing Series, we're diving into comprehensive hormone testing…

EPISODE #98 — JUN 26, 2026

Your gut is connected to far more than just digestion. Skin issues, hormone imbalances, fatigue, food sensitivities, inflammation, and even nutrient deficiencies can all have roots in the gut. But how do you know when gut testing is actually necessary? In this second episode of my Functional Lab Testing Series, we're diving into one of the most valuable tools I use…

EPISODE #97 — JUN 19, 2026

Functional lab testing can feel overwhelming. Should you test everything? Are your annual labs enough? Why do so many people still feel awful when they're told their labs are "normal"? In this first episode of my Functional Lab Testing Series, I'm sharing the framework I use to help clients make sense of functional testing. We talk about why I don't believe…

What happens in your baby's gut during the first 1000 days of life can have a profound impact on their future health. In this episode, I'm joined by Cheryl Sew Hoy, founder of Tiny Health, to talk about the infant microbiome, how it develops, and why it's becoming such an important piece of the conversation around children's health. We discuss…

EPISODE #94 — MAY 29, 2026

In this episode, I’m sharing a little life update and bringing you behind the scenes of what’s been going on lately. We talk about Noah’s latest sleep phase and how months of interrupted sleep have shown up in my own lab results. I also share an update on our kitchen remodel after discovering mold earlier this year. We get into what it’s been like introducing solids…

EPISODE #93 — MAY 22, 2026

In this episode, I’m answering your postpartum questions and talking through some of the most common things women experience after having a baby – physically, mentally, and emotionally.

EPISODE #92 — MAY 15, 2026

My postpartum lab results were surprising. In this episode, I’m walking you through what I tested and how pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, stress, sleep deprivation, and overall life left very real patterns in my body months later. We talk about the difference between conventional vs. functional lab interpretation and why context matters just as much as.…

EPISODE #91 — MAY 8, 2026

Bloating is one of the most common symptoms I see in women’s health, but not all bloating looks the same. The timing, patterns, and surrounding symptoms can actually tell us a lot about what may be causing it. In this episode, I’m breaking down the different types of bloating I commonly see clinically and some of the most common patterns I find on functional lab tests.…

EPISODE #90 — MAY 1, 2026

If I could go back to the beginning of my health journey, I would do things very differently. I honestly made things a lot harder than they needed to be. For a long time, I thought healing meant doing more. More supplements, more routines, more restriction, more effort and constantly trying to optimize everything. But looking back, a lot of that was just adding stress to.…

EPISODE #89 — APR 24, 2026

In this episode, I’m breaking down what actually happens in your body on birth control and what it looks like to come off of it. Birth control is often presented as a quick fix for things like acne, PMS, irregular cycles, or menstrual pain (among other things). But what’s rarely explained is that it doesn’t actually resolve those issues — it suppresses your natural hormone cycle.…
