Lucky for us, Francesca Sipma, founder of Mastry and Hypnobreathwork, has the answers for us. She walks us through her journey going from high-strung, New York City corporate party girl to steppin...

There's this old phrase that "thoughts become things." And I don't think that's fully true. I think beliefs become things, largely because our actions are heavily influenced by what we believe. If you don't BELIEVE you have the potential to be a healthy person, why would your actions reflect that, you know? Today we're diving into a framework I've used to help identify and work through limiting beliefs in my own life so you can potentially do the same. Disclaimer: this is in no way medical and/o...

2 years ago, I made one of the best decisions I've ever made - rebranding my fitness company after 5 years of business. I was scared that rebranding so "late" in the game might hurt our brand recognition, but not only did it absolutely not do that, but shifiting from being a business to being a true brand, and emphasizing what I now refer to as the "Brand Big 3" - Values, Vision, and Vibes, we attracting a stronger ideal client base and community, have more cohesion in every level of the busines...

The term "functional health coach" kinda feels a lot like the term "influencer" these days... aka there's a lot of good ones out there, but there's also a lot of really ~challenging~ ones that give the good ones a bad rep.

You've probably heard of essential fatty acids like EPA and DHA, or omega-3s, and how important they are. But did you know there's a 3rd essential fatty acid that's also a saturated fatty acid? You know, the ones you've been taught to avoid by the mainstream media for... more than a couple years. Turns out, there's an essential saturated fatty acid that dolphins helped discover (yes, dolphins), and not consuming enough of this essential fatty acid unearthed the first recognized "new" deficiency ...

I firmly believe that even the most devoted and resolute of us go through times + experiences where we stray from our authenticity AND our personal standards. Whether it's through a gentle realization, or in my case, some full-life come-to-Jesus moments, we're usually reminded by our core selves when we've strayed, whether it's takes months or years for that to happen. In today's show, I'm setting the groundwork for how you can start the work of re-establishing what your personal standards for e...

Hello my dear high performance human... question for you: what do you do when you've found yourself in a spot where you're disappointed in your own self? Where you've let yourself down, not lived up to your own standards of being, and otherwise not shown up as the person you want to be? There's a good chance you find yourself neck deep in a shame/guilt spiral that has you silencing yourself and, over time, playing even smaller and showing up even less. I know this because I am you, I've been the...

It's no secret the the word "keto" has gotten... shall we say "mixed" reviews in the fitness space, particularly in the science-based physique transformation space.

Dr. Latt Mansor of Ketone-IQ is on the show today to talk about just that - how we can...

Have you ever noticed these not-so-lovely cycles and patterns keep repeating themselves? And how these things you "don't want" somehow keep showing up in your life? Have you ever thought that you may have developed some attachments to your pain? These repeat experiences are potentially rooted in the comfort of familiarity along with our fear of the unknown. Your Highest Self is literally a HUGE unknown since you've never fully been that before. Unknowns, no matter the promise they hold, are scar...

Every single human being is going to encounter the caterpillar/goo/butterfly journey, aka the journey where you get the nudge (or sucker punch) from life that it's time to evolve from the current version of you into the next. Each stage of this journey comes with it's own unique challenges and opportunities, and on today's episode, I parse out how I've come to recognize and acknowledge each of these phases and navigate them with as much grace (and ideally sanity) as possible.

March 13, 2024, I had fat transfer to the breast and I had SO many questions on the procedure, rightfully so. For every question, I had even more answers and things to talk about. There's so many misconceptions about this procedure, so many things people don't realize (and things even I didn't realize), and honestly just a lot to talk about with a surgery like this. If you've followed along for a while, you know I got very sick from breast implants back in 2016 and had them removed. In this epis...
