Episode 321: Cook More, Shop Less, Waste Nothing, with Chef Laura Scheck

What happens when a former school teacher swaps lesson plans for sheet pans — and merges these two areas of expertise together? You get Chef Laura Scheck of Teaching Table — a culinary educator with a knack for demystifying scratch cooking using fresh, seasonal ingredients.

As someone who’s deeply into health and wellness but couldn’t cook to save my life… let me tell you, this convo is personal. I took my first class with Chef Laura last fall, and when I pulled a golden loaf bread out of my oven, I thought: Wait. I made this? Since then, I’ve taken five (okay, maybe six) of her classes — from mocktails to gluten-free galettes — and my kitchen confidence has never been higher.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • How Chef Laura went from the classroom to the kitchen (and blended the two)

  • The power of modifying instead of stressing

  • Her 3 go-to meals for when you’re short on time

  • Why cooking confidence isn’t about perfection – it’s about play

  • The 3 kitchen tools she can’t live without 

This one’s light on Human Design, but packed with heart, humor, and those quiet “oh wow, I can do this” moments we all need more of. If you’ve ever felt intimidated by the kitchen, this episode is for you!

Episode 228: Intuition, Self-Trust and Healing Chronic Migraines with Melinda Staehling

Returning to the show is friend-of-the-program and clinical nutritionist, Melinda Staehling.

Melinda recently joined me in Episode 220: Developing Self-Trust and Leadership through Human Design and Intuitive Eating.

(She was also a guest in Episode 041: How to Start A Meditation Practice and Episode 046: Gray-Area Drinking and Sobriety).

In this episode, we continue our conversation on trusting our intuition and stepping into a self-leadership role in our healing journeys.

Melinda shares her 17+ year struggle with migraine and how her approach to treating them has evolved over the years.

She shares:

  • Why migraine is a women’s health issue

  • Why and how she takes an integrative approach

  • Why only focusing on the physical aspects of pain is an incomplete conversation

  • How she’s chosen to reframe her relationship with pain and the tools that have helped her do so

Episode 220: Developing Self-Trust and Leadership through Human Design and Intuitive Eating with Melinda Staehling

Joining me in Episode 220 is Melinda Staehling. Melinda joined me way back in Episodes 041 on meditation and 046 on gray-area drinking. Since then, in true Manifesting Generator form, she’s made a complete career change going from a career in the restaurant industry to now as a Clinical Nutritionist and NASM personal trainer.

My curiosity was piqued when Melinda recently started a book club on Intuitive Eating. I’ve always been fascinated with Intuitive Eating because I didn’t know how to trust my intuition enough to practice it. I didn’t have the self-confidence to trust myself and my decision-making.

In this episode you'll hear us discuss:

  • What is Intuitive Eating

  • As a clinical nutritionist, why she advocates it

  • Intuition x Intuitive Eating

  • The relationship between intuition and Human Design

  • How we can develop self-trust and step into a self-leadership role through Intuitive Eating and Human Design

Episode 178: Finding Wellness Empowerment Through Education

I recently put a call out to my Instagram community for requests on topics for future episodes. One topic that came up was how to make wellness more inclusive.

It’s a vast topic given the variety of things that fall into the wellness space. I certainly don’t have all the answers, but I do believe that we can find empowerment when we become leaders in our own health care.

In this solo episode, I share why I take an integrative approach to wellness, marrying science with holistic practices, and how I found empowerment through education, taking a leadership role in my health.

Episode 168: Using Functional Nutrition to Recover From Burnout

Functional Nutrition is an approach where you address not just WHAT you’re experiencing, but WHY. What’s the environment that’s created your condition(s)?

In Part 2 of this 3-part mini-series on addressing burnout, I walk you through how to use the tools of Functional Nutrition to explore YOUR antecedents, triggers, and meditators (ATMs) and construct YOUR big picture to understand WHY you’re experiencing burnout.

I walk you through the methods I use to help myself (and others) recover from burnout.

There’s never a one-size-fits-all solution, but this approach helps you create one that works for you!
