Hi lovely! As young women, I’m sure you can relate to that time of your adolescence that you hid your face and caked-on makeup due to feeling and believing that we were ugly and others were just staring at our zits as we talked to them?

I'm positive you'll have an affinity as you ponder on your innocent younger self and how it relates to the "Language of the Mind + Body!" Let's jump in - a...

In this episode, we have an incredible conversation with Dr. Don Wood, the creator of The Inspired Performance Program (TIPP). As a clinical hypnotherapist, entrepreneur, and personal life experiences, I understand the impact of trauma and how it keeps us from reaching our full potential. To frame it up - consider this: We have up to 80,000 thoughts a day. 80% of them are negative and 95% of them stem from the subconscious and are the same thoughts as yesterday. This means you are only living in...

I’ve found through research and as a passionate hypnotherapist, the different states of mind we experience are quite important to understand how and why we practice exercises like meditation or self hypnosis to feel better and live more consciously.

Hormones can have a major effect on your hair growth and skin aging process. These “symptoms” readily tell a story of what is really going on beneath those layers. Do any of these symptoms sound familiar? Hair loss in clumps or strands, thinning eyebrows, dry skin, fine lines and wrinkles and acne. Contrary to popular belief, these symptoms are not from getting older. While aging causes a decline in hormones, environmental and dietary factors also have a hand in speeding up the aging process.

Anti-aging is more than just what you put on your face. There is a whole list of factors that go into healthy, balanced skin, including genetics, overall health, pollutants and diet. In Fact: Epigenetic studies now show that approx 80 percent of our health is influenced by our lifestyle and environment, leaving only 20 percent (or less) to our genetic “genes.” When that 80 percent is broken or not working efficiently, we then manifest dis-ease and many times it is reflective on our outer skin.

I first learned about Laura Lagano by searching for other like minded powerful women that were knowledgeable in CBD with a background in Functional medicine.

We landed on one consistent truth of holistically integrating our lifestyle with endocannabinoid support (CBD). Through our time, you’ll hear what most practitioners and retailers miss when it comes to the root reasons and how to use CBD and Mari...

Hi there! We’re breaking up the pattern today!

Have you ever hit a wall (enter symptom here) and ran in circles with “normal” labs or medical provider input - and wondered if a Functional Medicine practitioner could get to the root? So often women ask, “Will I ever feel like myself again?
