27 Apr 2023ARE YOU ACTUALLY HEALTHY!? How to evaluate your health and stop falling victim to marketing traps00:22:39

Today's conversation was inspired by our last podcast episode about metabolic health. As we talked through this, we realized there was a large gap between facts and what our society thinks is "healthy" based on what we've been told through the media, marketing and the influence of our family/friends. What we've discovered is that no one is talking about health markers, so we are diving into it today. Get ready to join us in a candid conversation about:

  • How marketing and the media has influenced us
  • What we are told health looks like
  • What it means to listen to your body
  • Questions to ask yourself to determine how healthy you are
  • Signs of a healthy body
  • What is your metabolism (in digestible terms)

In this episode, we dive into the ups and downs of our personal skincare journeys, from battling acne-prone skin and dermatitis to navigating the challenges of finding the right products.

Additionally, Jill shares her experience with Perioral dermatitis and offers a sneak peek into upcoming episodes where we’ll discuss environmental factors like mold and their impact on our skin.

We share the importance about being curious about skincare, rather than overwhelm, and offer tips for gradually switching to better products that work for your skin. We also highlight how making small, mindful changes can be more effective than drastic overhauls.

06 Mar 2025Uncovering the Root Causes of Gut Issues: How Emotions and the Nervous System Impact Gut Health with Dr. Max Dula00:55:29

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Max Dula, a Holistic Physician trained in Chiropractic Medicine, Functional Medicine, and Brain Retraining. Throughout this episode, we explore the root causes of gut issues, chronic illness, and inflammation, emphasizing that symptoms are messages from the body, not the problem itself. We dive into how addressing the root cause, rather than relying on supplements, is key to healing. A major focus is on the nervous system’s crucial role in gut health, including how stress and emotions impact digestive function. We discuss practical ways to calm the nervous system to support overall health. Tune in for insights on detoxification, constipation, and even histamine intolerance, all with a holistic approach to healing.

In this episode, we’re joined by the brilliant Dr. Tim Spector—Professor of Genetic Epidemiology, founder of the renowned TwinsUK study, and co-founder of the science-driven nutrition company ZOE. Known for his groundbreaking research featured in the Netflix documentary Hack Your Health and over 900 published studies, Dr. Spector dives into the fascinating science of the gut microbiome, why identical twins don’t respond the same to food, and how ZOE’s massive nutrition study (published in Nature Medicine) is transforming how we understand personalized health. We unpack the science behind fiber (why he eats 30 different plants a week), what improves or damages your microbiome, and how gut health ties directly to mood, sleep, and metabolic health. Dr. Spector also shares his thoughts on mental well-being, the real issue behind the rise of protein, and offers an early peek at the new Processed Food Risk Scale. If you’re looking to go beyond basic nutrition advice and get into the real science of food, microbes, and health, this is the episode for you.

06 Sep 2023EDIT YOUR LIFE: Becoming your version of an "it" girl and elevating your nutrition, body, skin and more00:22:45

Are you like us and tired of living a "medium" life?! We got inspired by a conversation we had on our couch: That we're sick of doing things half-ass, if you will, or not reaching our fullest potential with the things we want to achieve. This is especially when it comes to our skin, health, environment and other areas. We're using this candid conversation as a way of talking through HOW we are going to approach leveling up our lives (Spoiler alert: This isn't about working harder than you ever have before, rather doing the things that make you feel your best to become the happiest and healthiest version of yourself). This isn't a "pick apart your life" project, but rather a "how can I improve the things that I care about in order to live a really good life?"
