Ever wish you had a mama friend in your back pocket who wasn't afraid to talk about poop, vaginal infections, skin rashes, behavioral issues and everything in between? Someone who speaks about common symptoms clearly and gives you natural ideas of how to actually heal from the root (hello gut bacteria!) instead of masking? And I am not talking about essential oils here. While those have their place, I am talking deeper stuff - like causes, prevention and finding overall balance. As a mama to four I have gone through the ups and downs of sleepless nights, undiagnosed symptoms, gotten the complete runaround from the medical system and have found a different way. This podcast will empower you to take leadership of your family's wellness. New episodes will be released every Tuesday morning. They will be short enough that you can probably time them perfectly with your cold cup of coffee and dry shampoo routine. Make sure you are subscribed so you automatically get my latest episodes. Sending you a big mama hug!

After being bullied as a child, my dear friend Jody struggled with anorexia. Can you relate? At the young age of 20 she decided to get breast implants because she thought they would help her love herself more. Those implants would "fix" her. 

She could have never dreamed they would send her on a several year health journey. One where she had completely lost hope and didn't know how to get out of bed or be th...

There are so many misconceptions about silver.  I remember the very first time I heard of it being used as a natural supplement. It was well before I had children. Well, except for my bloodhound puppy named Olive. She was my first baby. She came to us with so many health issues and after the vet put her on several rounds of antibiotics and steroids I knew I needed to try something else. I went to a holistic dog store and the women ...

Medical freedom goes beyond having the autonomy to make your own medical choices. It means taking precautionary measures to really own your health. It means doing everything you can to separate your family from our broken system that is profit driven and doesn’t give a shit about your health. It means educating yourself so you have enough self trust to be free.

This episode will validate and inspire you. I hope it gets yo...

I have a very vivid memory of when my son was really unwell. He was six months old and we were back at the pediatrician for the third time that week because I knew something was terribly wrong. In addition to being covered in an eczema rash, he had so much mucus in his poop and while he was still breastfeeding, there were clumps of stringiness that just didn’t seem right. Then there was blood and I just kept taking him back in. His...

It is so easy for us to feel alone and scared when our children are unwell. We naturally isolate ourselves when our babies are covered in red oozing rashes, or our toddlers experience speech delays or children melt down with violent behavioral issues because we feel embarrassed and ashamed that our children are suffering.

The truth though is that none of us are on this journey alone. So many other mamas have walked the sam...

As a first time mom, fevers terrified me. I always thought that fevers were bad and scary but as it turns out, fevers are one of our bodies' superpowers. 

So often with the slightest fever, we flood our own or our children’s bodies with over the counter medications and we unknowingly stop our bodies from doing the job they were designed to do. 

It has taken me having four children and learning so much to get ...

Antibiotics not only kill the bad bacteria in your body, they also kill the good bacteria. There are some amazing studies that have recently came out showing that one course of antibiotic for something like an upper respiratory infection or maybe a urinary tract infection, or whatever the need - this one course increases your chance of a major depressive episode by 24% in the next 12 months, and the chance of developing a generaliz...

We have all been told that you have to take antibiotics for ear infections. And if you don’t finish the complete cycle, your ear drum could explode. 

This isn’t an anti antibiotic episode but rather a deep dive into what is behind ear infections and how antibiotics exacerbate the problem. 

Most of us know that ear infections stem from an infection somewhere in the body that lands in the middle ear. This infection causes inflammation ...

A huge component to healing is our spiritual well being. This is an area that is so often overlooked and when we experience trauma it is equally important that we heal our spirit along with our physical bodies. I am just now going through the repercussions of this. Of not healing my soul after fighting for my sons health. That was over 7 years ago and it is just now surfacing. I think this happens so often, we heal our children and...

I recently self diagnosed myself with PMDD or Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder. Self diagnosed because from the little bit of research I did along with being very familiar with how our medical system focuses on treating instead of healing, I wasn’t interested in going to see a doctor who would just prescribe me birth control.


I am on a mission to heal my body so I am heading on a self driven journey. I ...

At the age of 16 I was told I had one of the worst cases of ADHD my psychiatrist had ever seen. I left feeling so confused. Had I always been that way? 

I was prescribed Adderall and sent on my way. Just like that. I was handed a stimulant drug. One that compares so insanely close to methamphetamine. I took one pill and instead of experiencing the “regulated calm” I was told I would, I became even more fidgety and felt like I needed...
