OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
In this episode we sit down with Colleen Wachob, co-founder and CEO of Mind Body Green, to explore the deeper meaning of wellbeing beyond wellness trends. Colleen opens up about the life-threatening pulmonary embolism that changed the course of her life, her long fertility journey through IVF, and the lessons she learned about stress, resilience, sleep, breathwork, spirituality, and connection.
Together, they discuss why joy, community, intuition, and nervous system regulation may be some of the most overlooked pillars of health today. They also explore modern wellness culture, the importance of resilience during perimenopause and fertility challenges, and how true healing often begins by reconnecting with ourselves and others.
Key Takeaways:
- Breathwork and nervous system regulation can profoundly impact health and resilience.
- Joy and meaningful connection are essential pillars of wellbeing, not optional extras.
- Fertility journeys require both medical support and emotional/spiritual resilience.
- Sleep is one of the highest ROI health practices for longevity and recovery.
- Wellness without community, intuition, and purpose can miss the bigger picture.
