In today’s episode, Darren and I are catching you up on life, health, and some important conversations we need to be having this October.
We start with a big life update — selling our house — and then talk about Darren’s recent absent seizure. We also dive into Breast Cancer Awareness Month: why it can feel so complicated, how pink-washing misleads people, and where you can actually direct your support to make an impact (spoiler: I’m featuring Cancer Culture, and you’ll find all the info in the show notes below).
On a lighter note, I share my new favorite morning ritual: a whole lemon squeezed into water, with lemon zest and a pinch of gray Celtic salt. We break down the surprising benefits for your immune system, liver, hydration, digestion, and overall energy.
We’re also talking about what’s happening inside the Not Today Cancer Community this month — including our weekly giveaway of a free year membership! October’s theme is sprouts, and you’ll learn why growing your own broccoli sprouts on your kitchen counter might be one of the most powerful nutrition hacks out there.
Finally, we chat about the current protein craze — why protein matters but also why you need to be cautious about the type you’re using. Not all proteins are created equal, and some can do more harm than good.
