00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:20.840
Hey my friend, and welcome back to the podcast.
00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:35.400
So officially the first episode back will be coming out next week, but I am just so excited as I'm putting it together right now and just wanted to share with you what all is to come.
00:01:35.960 --> 00:01:49.400
So, in case you are out of the loop, if you haven't been keeping up with what's been going on, I had been publishing episodes weekly since September of 2024, so two solid years.
00:01:49.960 --> 00:01:56.439
And then life threw me a curveball, and I had a little baby girl back in March.
00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:02.680
Kept the podcast going for a few months because I had planned ahead and had some episodes banked.
00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:04.600
I had some help initially.
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:18.120
Life is a little chaotic with a newborn, in case you haven't experienced that before.
00:02:18.520 --> 00:02:36.360
And just trying to navigate that along with keeping in good standing, not in good standing, that's not even the best way to say it, giving my very best version of myself to my clients who I work with and everything.
00:02:36.600 --> 00:02:44.920
I found myself recording the podcast from a place that I never wanted to record from, which was basically just, oh, okay, I need to get an episode out.
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:46.439
I better record something.
00:02:46.600 --> 00:02:50.280
How can I plan something quickly and just get an episode out?
00:02:50.600 --> 00:02:55.240
And that's just not the way that I want to show up on this podcast.
00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:56.199
It's not.
00:02:56.439 --> 00:03:07.960
I want to show up on this podcast exactly as I did when I first started it, which is fully and as present as I as I could possibly be.
00:03:08.040 --> 00:03:11.319
And again, giving the very best of myself.
00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:15.639
And so I really sat with it to be truthful.
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:19.720
I had a moment of just, should I even continue the podcast right now?
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:28.120
Should this be something that I still do while I'm now a working mom and trying to navigate all of that?
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:35.639
And when I really sat with it, what I realized is that I absolutely love having the podcast.
00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:38.759
I love having conversations with you all.
00:03:38.920 --> 00:03:51.240
I love having it as a way to share everything that I've learned, everything that I gained, everything that's helped me along my journey and that I've seen help my clients because I know how powerful that can be.
00:03:51.480 --> 00:04:03.400
I know when I was really going through stuff, and honestly, even now to this day, I really love listening to quality podcasts because it's such a fun way to get information.
00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:10.280
It feels like you're just kind of listening to a friend tell you about whatever they're telling you about.
00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:12.439
And I love podcasts.
00:04:12.519 --> 00:04:16.600
And so when I really sat with it, and where do I want to focus my energy now?
00:04:16.840 --> 00:04:26.600
The conclusion that I came to was that I really want to prioritize the podcast, but making it the very best podcast that I can.
00:04:26.840 --> 00:04:30.120
And so what that meant for me was that I needed a little bit of space.
00:04:30.280 --> 00:04:35.319
So I ended up taking the summer, all of July and August off of the podcast.
00:04:35.400 --> 00:04:40.759
And I do plan as planned to bring it back in September.
00:04:41.000 --> 00:05:07.639
I am currently recording episodes for September so I can get myself ahead of the game, and that way I can record the way I really want to, which is really taking my time to plan episodes, to dig into research when that's necessary, or just be able to really clearly share my beliefs and my knowledge and just everything I've learned along the way.
00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:15.879
In order to do that really well, I need space, I need time, I need, I need to allow those creative juices to flow.
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:28.280
What I don't want to give you is just a bunch of AI slop, because quite frankly, you could just jump on AI yourself and put together that same information, and that's not what I want.
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:36.680
I really want you to have the best of me because the truth is I've taken years to learn everything that I've learned.
00:05:36.840 --> 00:05:44.200
I've been through multiple certifications to learn everything that I can possibly learn about functional nutrition.
00:05:44.439 --> 00:05:49.720
I've spent tens of thousands of dollars on my education so that you don't have to.
00:05:51.160 --> 00:06:11.319
And I have my own life experience and my own clinical experience to share with you because everything that I talk about is coming from a place of things that I have worked on with myself, things that I've seen work with my clients, things that are actually moving the needle to help women become the best best version of themselves.
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:14.040
Because at the end of the day, that's really what I want.
00:06:14.200 --> 00:06:23.240
That's the purpose, that's the intention of this podcast is to help women to be able to show up fully as themselves.
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:36.920
And the best way that we can do that is to bring yourself back into alignment, to truly and deeply work on yourself when that comes to your physical health, mental, emotional health, all of the pieces.
00:06:37.080 --> 00:06:43.000
Because as I say often on this podcast, we're not just physical bodies, we're not just one thing.
00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:52.040
We are complex beings and we deserve to be able to step forward and allow that to be seen and allow that to shine through.
00:06:52.360 --> 00:07:06.840
I am no longer going to stand for women just martyring themselves and taking care of everybody else around them, everybody else's needs and neglecting their own health along the way.
00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:07.960
I see it so much.
00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:10.600
I've done it myself, I've been there myself.
00:07:10.760 --> 00:07:28.520
Truthfully, it's still something I find myself working on on a daily basis, especially now as a mom, because that is so common, I think, especially for moms, is that we give, give, give so much to our kids, our spouses, to everyone around us.
00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:40.760
And so I invite you as we step into this new season to really allow yourself the space to come back to yourself, even if it's as simple as prioritize listening to this podcast, put it on your calendar.
00:07:40.840 --> 00:07:47.720
We I publish an episode every Wednesday, and it's my promise to you that I will keep this podcast going.
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:49.640
I feel reinvigorated.
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:53.560
I know I have years ahead of me of publishing this podcast.
00:07:53.800 --> 00:08:02.040
I have some fantastic episodes that I am really taking time to thoughtfully plan out for you so they can be the best possible episodes.
00:08:02.200 --> 00:08:05.800
We're going to be talking about all things hormones and gut health.
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:07.879
We'll be talking endometriosis.
00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:11.400
We'll be talking mindset and emotional health.
00:08:11.640 --> 00:08:25.560
We'll be talking all the things that will really help to bring you back into alignment from all angles, from the functional side of things, from the root cause side of things, and yes, from the more woo-woo side of things as well.
00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:32.759
I don't really like that phrase, woo-woo, but if I'm truthful, that is where some of my beliefs lie.
00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:40.039
I do believe that your mindset around healing and your energy matters so much.
00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:43.960
And so I really want to share all of those pieces with you.
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:50.759
This is the platform right here where I'm going to be dumping all of the things in the best possible way.
00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:54.279
And so I am so excited to share with all of you.
00:08:54.600 --> 00:09:00.279
Please do take a moment to jump over to Instagram, find me.
00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:04.039

00:09:06.439 --> 00:09:19.879

00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:27.000
I would love to hear your feedback so that I can create the podcast that's going to benefit you the most.
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:28.360
Okay.
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:34.039
Oh, and I have so many fantastic guest interviews lined up as well.
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:41.480
Like I'm, I just am bursting at the seams, waiting to share with you all of the amazing, incredible guests that I have lined up.
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.759
I just know things are headed in the right direction.
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:53.799
This podcast is going to truly turn into exactly what I want it to be, exactly what I want to share with the world, and exactly what you need to hear.
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.519
All right, my friend, much love to you.
00:09:56.759 --> 00:09:58.120
Stay tuned next week.
00:09:58.199 --> 00:10:05.639
If you're not already, be sure to subscribe to the podcast so that you get notified as soon as that new episode comes out next week.
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:07.000
