Wellness Me Up Podcast

Miss Marissa is a hypnosis trainer and life coach helping entrepreneurs drop the mask and lean into their authentic energy. Lab grown. Dad's a scientist. This one goes everywhere - masks, curiosity, gin buckets, sex, and suicide. When a guest says “shit” because the wheel landed on coping mechanisms you know it's gonna be good.

EF stands for executive function - your adulting skills, your life skills, the stuff nobody actually taught you. Shannyn Schroeder is an EF-Bomb coach helping neurodivergent women calm the chaos by finding systems that fit their brains. Not copy and pasted from someone else. Theirs. Also she called me out lovingly approximately seventeen times.

Miguel Hernandez is a licensed therapist turned coach who helps people stop thinking their way into wellness and start feeling their way through it. This one covers somatic healing, awareness, the stories we tell ourselves, why desperation is a stinky cologne, and why you are probably way more confident than you think.

Jes Brandt is a health & life coach specializing in menopause who works alongside her twin sister Val — a nurse practitioner — to help midlife women figure out what's actually going on in their bodies & brains. We get into biology, habit change, choosing your hard, & why you were never the problem. Also she rides dirt bikes & is a total badass.

Eileen Rouse is a certified intuitive coach and sound healing practitioner who works where spirituality, identity, and life transitions collide. She will tell you things you already know until you finally hear them. This episode wanders into frequency, vibration, limiting words & the healing nobody clapped for. Goddammit Eileen.

Corree Roofener is a values-driven financial coach who filed bankruptcy at 22 and built a multi-six-figure business anyway. She does not give a damn about your profit and loss report. She wants to know if your money is buying you a life that feels good in your body. Side note — we are both wearing red glasses and the energy is immaculate.

Erika Ristovski showed up to this conversation with a scratchy voice courtesy of a whale activation out on the ocean. I showed up with mine courtesy of too many roller coasters with my nieces. Neither of us cared. What followed was a goodie bag of quantum gold — energy fields, conscious creation, and why problems are always portals.

Vanesa (Vane) Nicolosi is a women's personal trainer who does not give a damn about bikini bodies. She trains women for real life — lugging suitcases, playing with grandkids, walking dogs, hiking mountains, and getting up and down off the floor without it being a whole thing. This one is warm, practical, and feels like the smell of rain. Yes really.

Soul contracts. Karma. Medical intuition. Ancestral nutrition. Cannabis education. Rachael Woosley has 21 years of nursing behind her and a whole lot of modalities in front of her — and she uses them all to get to the root cause of what's actually going on. Also the WTF wheel sent us straight to Disney and we have thoughts.

Wanna learn Kung Fu online? You actually can. Verca Partikova has 25 years of martial arts experience, almost 20 MMA fights, and moved across to Asia to train at the source. You won't learn it as fast as Neo downloaded it — but you can put in the real work at your own pace from wherever you happen to be in the world.

Sarah Kay Brown is a straight talking coach and author based in the UK helping people get out of their own way and start living at their optimal. She also has a Snakes and Ladders analogy for wellness that just kicks ass — and reminds you that no matter what happens you are never pushed off the board. Keep rolling.

Miranda Brooking is a rest consultant — yes that's a real job and yes we need it. This one covers the five areas of rest, burnout, permission, guilt, perimenopause, cold plunges, HRT, skinny dipping in a glacier lake on Vancouver Island, and why five minutes on the floor might change your life. Rest is not lazy. Miranda said so.

Joby Sanchez helps high-performing people navigate addiction privately — without losing their careers, their families, or themselves. He's lived it. He coaches from it. And he turned Wellness Me Up into a question. Nobody has done that before. Just listen.

Three cancers. 9/11. Two and a half years bedridden. Four knee surgeries. Four abdominal muscles removed. Dr. Sun Pandé has been through the boot camp and came out the other side joyful, crowned, and ready to teach you how to adjust your sails. Also there is something about visualizing your foot in your ass. Just trust it.

Speaker. Author. Growth coach. Suicide survivor. Mullet enthusiast. David Chamotzky has been through it and came out the other side with 30 years of corporate wisdom, a Lucille bat, and the firm belief that everybody has a story and everybody has worth. This one goes everywhere.

My longest episode yet and I would do it again immediately. Natalie Zacharias is a healer, space holder, and emotion code practitioner where spirituality and psychology collide. Subconscious healing, trapped emotions, grief, plant medicine, Etch A Sketch, and why the warrior stays calm in the chaos. You're welcome.

Danae Jensen is a plant medicine and healing guide based on Quadra Island BC. She has watched people crawl into ceremony at their lowest and walk out realizing their life is actually pretty amazing. Plant is going to show you what it needs to show you. And the diamonds are always in the darkness.

You don't stop the negativity coming in. You let it out. Empress Sparkle is a healer and energetic cleanser here to talk about energy, darkness, judgment, soul ties, and why accepting yourself — all of yourself — is where wellness actually begins.

The helpers are burning out. And not enough people are helping them. Kathleen Foldvari is a registered social worker and psychotherapist here specifically for the healthcare workers, first responders, teachers, coaches, and parents who give everything to everyone and forget themselves. This one is real, practical, and ends with pickles and peanut butter. You're welcome.

People pleasing is just self betrayal with a smile on. Janessa Neighbors is a certified relationship and trauma recovery coach who gets it — because she's lived it. This one goes deep into people pleasing, neurodivergence, limited beliefs, and why you were never supposed to be the glue.

Darcy Birch has crawled through some serious basement level rock bottom moments in her life. Now she helps others do the same - faster than they think possible. This episode goes everywhere. Trauma. Accountability. Change. And somehow ends with a sloth. You're welcome.

Vera Jackson is a nutritional therapist helping women who feel exhausted, can't figure out why, and have been told by their doctor that everything looks fine. Spoiler — it's not fine. And you don't have to overhaul your entire life to feel better. You just have to whisk it in slowly.

Peer support, speaking, art, journaling workshops, and now a book - Jessica Compton has been showing up for humans for almost a decade. This one is warm, real, and funny. By the end you'll have a brand new wellness code word for checking in on your people. S&S. We said what we said.

You've been showing up ready to do battle every day and you don't even know it. Amanda Kirkland is a trauma conscious transformational coach who helps you see what you can't see yet - because awareness is always the first step. And she's been there. Done that. Got the tattoo.

What if you could walk up to a wellness bar and just order exactly what you need? Reiki. Crystal healing. Shamanic work. Iridology. Corinne Van Kampen has the whole shelf stocked - and she's here to help you figure out what to order. She’s a reiki master, iridologist and shamanic healer. Pull up a stool - this one's a full pour.
