The Fiercely Awakening Podcast

Last week's episode, From Sleep Debt to Sleep Freedom: How I Changed My Chronotype, generated so many good questions. So I rounded up the ones that came up the most and made a super nerdy, in-depth Q&A.

If you haven't heard last week's episode yet, go back and start there first. That's the foundation, the five shifts that took me from sleep debt to sleep freedom. Then flow right back here.

In this episode, I share answers abou...

For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a true morning person. To legit wake up with ease, no alarm clock. And for most of my life, that felt completely out of reach.

Through so many seasons, I tried to force it. And forcing it never held, because my biology was never on the same page.

This episode is the story of how that finally changed. Not through more discipline or more willpower, but by building the body underneath, un...

If your feed looks anything like mine right now, it is A LOT. Wildfire smoke maps glowing red. Posts screaming that the air is thick with glyphosate. Theories that the parasite outbreak is actually radiation. A brand-new bill that could make our winter mornings an hour darker. If it feels overwhelming, just remember: it is designed to be.

So today, I am not here to pile onto the panic. I am here to help you SORT it. Think of this a...

The "explosive diarrhea parasite" is all over your social media feed right now. Outbreak. Contaminated produce. Thousands of cases.

And if you've been feeling that little knot of uncertainty in your stomach every time you open your fridge, this episode is your exhale.

Because this is not another headline designed to scare you. This is the OTHER half of the story. The half almost nobody is telling you.

In this episode, I give you ...

Last week in part one, we tore down the biggest lie in modern motherhood... that ill health is normal. And I handed you the first eight of the 15 indicators I use in my practice to read whether a child is THRIVING or whether their body is quietly asking for help.

But here is what I know. It's one thing to start seeing the whispers. It's another thing entirely to know what to do once you cannot un-see them.

That is what part two is ...

What if the things you've been told are just "normal" childhood stuff... The eczema. The cavities. The headaches. The colic. The chronic ear infections. The picky eating. The constipation. The meltdowns. The bedwetting. The brain fog. The mouth breathing.

What if none of that is actually normal at all?

Almost one in two children today has at least one persistent health concern.

That number was unimaginable a generation ago.

What if...

I was recently on a call with a Fiercely Empowered Mama who was in a perfect storm. Her body was depleted. Her hormones were a mess. Her sleep was wrecked. And she had landed in an overwhelming histamine flare.

In the middle of pouring all of it out to me, she said something I'd heard before from a hundred women.

"I just cannot wait to get back to MYSELF."

And I get it. 

But when she said it out loud, I felt immediate DISSONA...

This is the episode where I take you behind the curtain.

At 24, my body said NO. At 29, I found my purpose. By 30, I had a baby who would teach me more about my work than any book ever could.

In part two of our conversation on the power of a wake-up call, I take you inside some of my most defining wake-up calls, plus a few I have rarely shared publicly. Each one shaped a different room of who I am today. Each one carries a differen...

I have watched too many women hit a wake-up call without anyone ever giving them the language for what was actually unfolding. The season that finally asked more of them than they could push through. The moment that made it clear something had to change.

We are taught that hard things are punishment.

We are taught that the storm means something is wrong with us.

We are taught to push past, survive, get back to "normal" as fast as p...

Two and a half years into a strength training journey.

Seven weeks into my current, intentional, fat loss phase.

And sharing every lesson I learned the hard way.

In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of what actually changed my body. The mistakes I made in year one. The shift that happened in year two. The recovery lesson that changed everything. My current cut. And the truth about how long meaningful transformation really ...

For twenty years, carbs have been the most demonized macronutrient in the wellness world. We've been told to cut them, count them, restrict them, time them, avoid them after 6 p.m., only eat them post-workout, only eat the "right" ones, never eat them alone.

And what has it gotten us, mama?

Tanked thyroids. Disrupted cycles. Hair falling out. Anxiety crawling up the back of our skulls. Sleep that will not hold. Cold hands. Cold fee...

This episode is for the mama who's been quietly carrying the weight of impending doom while still showing up for breakfast and pickup line and bedtime.

You feel it in so many ways. Having dinner with the friend who will not stop catastrophizing. Reading the article that lands in your inbox. Seeing a headline at the grocery store checkout. The PTSD that's still living in your body from Covid.

Listen in as I walk you through the exac...

You are the main character of your own life. The through-line. The driver. The dreamer. The one without whom none of this happens.

In this episode, I walk you through exactly how to claim that energy, starting tomorrow.

This is not about doing more. It's about leading more intentionally.

YOU go first.
