Goals, Grit, and Some Woo Woo Sh*t

He got caught cheating on his wife, but the problem started long before that. By 11, he already felt addicted to porn. This addiction occurs when dopaminergic practices take over, chasing focus and motivat...

Send us Fan Mail Here’s the deal: most of us—especially women—have been raised to believe that more is better. More offers, more content, more hustle.

Send us Fan Mail Enjoy this incredible conversation from the Results Club Podcast, where I sat down to talk about all things health, mindset, and the real secret to lasting transformation. Spoiler alert: it’s not about grinding harder or obsessing over the scale. It’s about showing up for yourself in a way that actually works for your life.

Send us Fan Mail Dr. Andrea Love of Immunologic is back for Part 2. This week we’re talking politics. The political spectrum isn’t as divided as it looks—turns out both sides can latch onto the same sketchy ideas, just for wildly different reasons. Dr. Love takes us back to the first anti-vax wave in the 1970s: Liberals were all about “no toxins, no chemicals, keep it natural!" Conservatives,...

Send us Fan Mail With 2024 coming to an end... let's look back at one of the hottest, most polarizing health wellness stories of the year. Ozempic and similar medications are reshaping the world, akin to the invention of the smartphone. Initially, I wasn’t invested in this “magic” weight-loss wave—until I read Magic Pill by Johann Hari. I had to bring Johann on the show! Johann, an Ozempic su...

Send us Fan Mail Enjoy this replay, the tell-all—special edition—breakdown on how YOU can get a body like Jennifer Aniston's...sorta. Spoiler: It’s not a secret formula or groundbreaking hack. It’s basic stuff: "I drink a lot of water, move daily, eat whole, fresh foods, and get as much sleep as I can," Jennifer Aniston told People Magazine. Not exactly earth-shattering, but props t...

Send us Fan Mail As I reflect on this year, I’ve noticed something new: I’m way less interested in chasing those giant, shiny achievement goals. Instead, I’m soaking up the everyday moments—and loving it. Honestly, that’s a twist for me, but then I stumbled on an interview that totally lit the spark. When I picked up How to Calm Your Mind , I didn’t realize it was exactly what I needed. Chris Bail...

Send us Fan Mail As the year wraps up, those shiny January goals? Probably collecting dust. Now’s the perfect time to declutter, revisit, and decide what’s really worth keeping. Goals aren’t just about doing—they’re about becoming. And feeling good? That’s the whole point. Turtles tiptoe, avoiding stress. Tigers? Full speed, no pain, no gain. But here’s the thing: stress isn’t the enemy—it’s how y...

It’s 1909, and women can’t even vote yet, but Lulu Peters was a rebel with a medical degree and a dream: to teach Amer...

Send us Fan Mail Alright, meet Tara Dower , AKA "Candy Mama” (a trail name born of sugar and love for her trail mates); while she’s refined some of those habits… the sweet, sweet nickname still stands. Tara set the Fastest Known Time (FKT) on the Appalachian Trail, powering through 2,189 miles in 40 days, 18 hours, and 5 minutes. To put that in perspective, that’s like running from Calgary to...

Send us Fan Mail 100,000 views in, and let’s just say some unique people have wanted to be guests. But that’s how I found Gina Gallaun—a woman who quit her job and took off around the world to interview women about everyday courage. Gina’s first taste of courage?

Send us Fan Mail Costumes, Kitsch, and Festivity…I LOVE HALLOWEEN…but I know some of my clients don't feel the same way.
