I am so excited to have your yoga teacher’s favorite yoga teacher on the show, Alicia Wilford. I love taking Alicia’s yoga classes because of how she makes you feel motivated and seen throughout the flow. She has created such a beautiful community within her classes. It is not uncommon to see yogis cheering each other on or catching up well after the class has ended. The way that she carries herself and the stories that she tells h...

    It has been a wild last two months beginning to get answers for why I have experienced acne, constipation, UTIs, PMS, poor mood, and other symptoms over the last 15 years. Because I have been taking time to dive into the research, implement what I am learning, and begin to heal, I have had to take a step back from the podcast. I am happy to share that I have found a good routine with my new diet and lifestyle changes and am excited...

    Mother daughter relationships are not always easy. Moms have advice and knowledge that they want to pass down to their daughters and experiences that they want to protect their daughters from. Daughters may feel like they need to follow in their mother’s footsteps, or they may be craving their independence. Whatever the scenario, mother daughter relationships can be complex and multifaceted. 

    My own mom and I have been through many ...

    It’s not every day that you get to podcast with one of your best friends in your new podcast studio! In this episode, I chat with Megan Riley about non-toxic living, wedding planning, and trying to conceive. We cover a lot in this conversation - from our time in the classroom together when we were first learning about nontoxic living to supporting each other in our careers and personal lives. It was amazing to see how far we’ve com...

    Darrah Kempka, RN is someone that I have been inspired by for a long time. She shares her knowledge and experience so vulnerably, and she has a knack for fostering community. She is a trailblazer and brings so many unique therapies and modalities to the DFW area.

    So it was no surprise that she opened my eyes (and probably many other people’s eyes) to the concept of free birth. Free birth is birthing without the assistance of a midwi...
  • The hardest and most cathartic podcast episode that I have ever done. This is the most raw, unfiltered, and vulnerable that I have ever been - on social media and maybe just in general. But as I have been working through so much fear and grief, I’ve wished there were more people talking about it. I wish more people shared about how hard it is to watch people you love be sick and the fear that may be instilled while you support them...

    I feel so lucky that I get to connect with friends from middle school and high school again through the podcast! This week I have Dr. Alissa Salvitti on to talk about lymphatic and adrenal support, as well as detoxing. I had so much fun nerding out with her about some of our favorite products and tests that we’ve done to improve our health. 

    Dr. Alissa is a Chiropractor and Traditional Naturopath. She has a passion for natural healt...

    I’ve known this week’s guest, Carley, since I was in middle school. We actually went to the same middle school and high school in Delaware, and even though we have ended up in completely different states after graduating, we've found similar missions in life. We both fell in love with the practice of yoga and became yoga teachers. We are both huge wellness advocates and creatives who are using different platforms to build community...

    Vitalistic chiropractic care has been such a game changer for my nervous system. My guest this week, Dr. Chris Cole, has provided a space for me to discover the way that I hold stress and tension in my body. He has encouraged me to think about the reason behind the symptoms that I am feeling through a lens of curiosity (rather than judgment or fear). This has really helped me manage my anxieties and better understand myself. Becaus...

    This episode is so inspiring and informative. I had the privilege of having my friend, colleague, and former study buddy, Rachel, on the show to discuss her health journey and everything she learned by healing herself, through her education, and from clinical practice.

  • While I was a CNS candidate, my supervisors required me to read the Intuitive Eating book to help me better understand my relationship with food and to introduce the concept that nutritionists do not just put people on diets. I enjoyed learning about the ten principles of Intuitive Eating, and I have used many of them when working with my clients. I have also used the Intuitive Eating workbook with clients to help them better under...

    In the age of influencers, it can be really easy to hear about a supplement on social media that is "good" for your gut, skin, or brain and impulse buy it on Amazon without even considering the ingredients in the product or the dosage. Because of the popularity and easy access to supplements online and at stores, I wanted to chat with the co-founder of one of my favorite supplement brands, Why Not Natural. In this episode, Kelin an...

    I told you that we were making this season of Connecting the Dots more personal, and there is nothing that matters more to me than my friends and family. I am SO excited to have four of my closest friends on this episode to talk about our experience living together in ONE room in our sorority house during our junior year of college. We had the best time together, which is hard for most people to believe - five girls in close quarte...

    I’M BACK! If you are into drinking alcohol, a fun drinking game during this episode could be to drink every time I say “I am so grateful” or “I’m very excited!” You would probably be feeling yourself by the end. But hey, at least I am expressing and feeling immense gratitude going into season 3 :)

    On a serious note, I am excited to reintroduce myself to you all as the sole host of this show and a certified nutrition specialist, heal...
