How aware are you of the words you use on a daily basis? We aren’t often aware of how our language impacts us subconsciously. There is power in language, and there is also sabotage. Do words like “try”, “maybe” or other non-committal words ultimately lead to taking your power away and keeping you stuck? Today I unpack the power of our language and explain how this idea led to renaming the show. Ar...

Today, we’re celebrating the 100th episode of Rejuvenated Women, while getting into the down and dirty of this desire to hide and not acknowledge the things we accomplish, or to allow perfectionism and fear to hold us back from putting ourselves out there.

With the Pfizer FDA approval coming through yesterday, the rise in the delta variant increased conversation around mandatory workplace vaccines, and New York City’s recent changes, I felt it was time to share some information and my own opinion with you. An opinion that may differ from either side of the vaccine conversations happening out there. This episode is NOT meant as any kind of medical ad...

The connection between a healthy gut and healthy skin is one that has been more accepted and studied over the past several decades. However, as my interview with clinical nutritionist Jennifer Fugo, who specializes in healing chronic skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, dandruff + hives (those things conventional medicine struggles to find real solutions for), it’s actually about much more t...

How aware are you of your food choices or behaviors when it comes to your health? For most of us, it’s not something we focus on or notice at all. And until we do, creating any true change in our behavior and thereby transforming our health will continue to elude us. In today’s episode, I unpack how we can start bringing awareness to our own behaviors and use it to find freedom of choice, especial...

According to children’s holistic mental health expert Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, our kids do this fancy thing called “co-regulating”. In other words, if we’re stressed, they’re going to be stressed. What does this mean for how we can be the best moms (or parents) possible? This is the topic of my discussion with Dr. Roseann (and more) on today’s episode of Rejuvenated Women. Dr. Roseann is a menta...

How do you define being a high performer? So many of us base performance on busyness. How many things can we fit on our plate or balls can we juggle in the air? Too many of us focus on the “stuff” and not the results that we’re producing. This week I unpack shifting our perspective on what high performance actually means and moving into focusing on the results we produce and not the stuff we’re ca...

Are you looking for the next s...

When I was in chiropractic school I was known for being a bit of a thorn in the school administration’s side as the chief content editor of our school paper. At one point, I even declared war on funnel cakes ;) While I was booed and poked fun at by many of my peers, my point had more to do with integrity...and is actually applicable to all of us. Today’s episode of Rejuvenated Women is a reprisal...

Is it my thyroid?!? 1:8 women will have a thyroid problem at some point in their lives. After menopause, it’s 1:3. But sadly conventional medicine doesn’t typically offer more than lifelong medication once you’re so far past “fine” that it’s hard to get back. Today’s episode is a deep dive into all things thyroid with the Thyroid Fixer-Dr. Amie Hornaman. Dr. Amie Hornaman DCN, MsN, CFMP, a.k.a The...

It can be easy to forget how much of our success is actually tied to our mindset. We want to focus on more knowledge, more tools, more of this, more of that. But if you don’t believe it’s possible, it doesn’t matter WHAT you do. It won’t be successful. Today’s podcast episode dives into this concept in more detail, sharing what I learned watching my 8 year old conquer a challenging part of a ropes...

Do you find yourself ignoring ailments, injuries, relationships or know that you hate your job and it’s a constant source of stress but you stay stuck? Springboarding from my own confirmation two weeks ago that I retore my wrist 1.5 years post-surgery by being pig-headed, stubborn, and not wanting to let my chiropractic career go, I unpack what it takes to get off the insanity loop that we can kee...

When’s the last time you paused to think about how many toxins you’re exposed to in your day-to-day routine? Or what it’s doing to your gut and health? What about where your symptoms truly come from?

“So how did you lose the weight? Was it just doing keto?” This has been a common question I’ve been getting since going public with my own weight loss journey last week. And while my process did involve eating to put my body into ketosis (ie fat-burning mode) I did NOT follow a “keto diet”. This week I unpack what I mean by that and the concept of following a “diet” versus transforming your relati...
