I started this podcast in 2017 — not to shout into the void, but to start the kinds of conversations I wished existed. The ones that name the real reasons women feel off, even when they “do everything right.”
As a Projector, I lead with pattern recognition. As a Human Design + functional nutrition practitioner, I give language to what your body’s already been whispering.
This show is about unlearning the noise — and rebuilding self-trust, one episode at a time.

THE LATEST EPISODES
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 149: A Holistic Approach to Macros with Dr. Jacqueline Bouley Price
They say that the best coaches have coaches and today we’re joined by *my* coach, Dr. Jacqueline Bouley Price (@livewellwithjacqueline)! Dr. Jacqueline is a chiropractor & certified holistic health coach who helps her clients find more balance on and off their plates.
After years of struggling with food and weight loss, she finally learned how to fuel her body and manage her weight without feeling restricted. To date, she has coached hundreds of happy clients who were able to change their habits and find a better relationship with their food and their bodies.
In this episode you’ll hear us discuss:
Why Dr. Jacqueline went from chiropractor to health coach
How she and her clients (myself included) have managed through the COVID-19 pandemic #realtalk
Her unique approach to macros and her BEST tips (they truly are) for taking a holistic approach to macros
And so. much. more!
Seriously, we had so much fun chatting about all the things, we could’ve talked for hours (these are my most favorite kind of episodes to do!).
Episode 106: Marrying Macros with Mindful Eating with Katie Garces
If you’ve ever tried macros eating and/or mindful, intuitive eating, then you know that these two approaches are on opposite ends of the spectrum. And to most of us, they don’t typically go together.
That is unless you’re Katie Garces.
Katie is a Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner who focuses on a “real foods framework” to maximize health. Katie blends her professional background in traditional healthcare, wellness, and nutrition, with her passion for the healing power of spiritual wholeness to provide customized advice and life balance solutions for women.
She also believes that macros and mindful eating can be blended together and offers this service in her practice.
In this episode, we examine how she brings these two vastly different approaches together simply and sensibly. We discuss how slight tweaks to your macros can have profound effects and the role and impact that body wisdom, curiosity, and even nutrient density can play.
Episode 089: Dieting vs Food As Medicine
What’s the difference between dieting and viewing food as medicine? In this new episode of The Live FAB Life Podcast, we’ll explore:
What my dieting mentality was like
What exactly does food as medicine mean?
Two ways that I manage the slippery slope between living healthily and orthorexia
Episode 088: Overcoming Orthorexia with Kate Markovitz
In this episode, I’m joined by Kate Markovitz, a Nutritional Therapy Consultant, a 21-Day Sugar Detox Coach, creator of The Mindfull Makeover program, and an Executive Director with Beautycounter, as well as a holistic lifestyle & personal growth advocate for women who are over media dogma and want to be free and confident in their own skin.
One day a few months ago over on Instagram, she shared how she struggled and overcame Orthorexia (having an unhealthy obsession with being healthy, most commonly through diet and exercise).
I connected to it because in hindsight, Orthorexia was something that I lived through too. So, I invited Kate to join me for a real-people episode to have a deeper discussion on this topic.
You’ll hear us each share:
Our stories on what led us to develop Orthorexia
What life was like as we lived through it
What were the defining moments that pulled us on the other side
And what helped us most past it
Episode 076: Eating for Nutrition vs. Avoiding Unhealthy Foods
One of the outcomes from my experiment in following the Keto Quick Start 30-day Meal Plan (Episode 074) was the realization that I had been eating to avoid unhealthy foods versus eating for nutrition, or rather nutrient-density.
In this episode, I’m joined by Nutrition Consultant and fellow 21-Day Sugar Detox Coach, Katie Leadbetter for a conversation exploring this topic.
You’ll hear us discuss:
What does it mean to eat for nutrient-density
How is that different than eating to avoid unhealthy foods
Mindful and Intuitive Eating
The role that programs like the 21-Day Sugar Detox, Keto Quick Start Meal Plan or even Whole 30 can play in mindful and intuitive eating
And a whole lot more!
Unlike typical episodes with guests, this is not an interview, but rather, a conversation with two nutrition and wellness practitioners sharing our views and philosophies on this topic!
Episode 047: What Happens When You Stop Obsessing About Food with Katie Garces
On this episode, I’m joined by Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Katie Garces.
Katie blends her professional background in traditional healthcare, wellness, and nutrition with her passion for the healing power of spiritual wholeness for women and men across the country.
Utilizing the concepts of intuitive eating, intermittent fasting and real food, Katie helps people examine how their spiritual and emotional barriers have a direct effect on their relationship with their bodies, so they can have a “grown-up” and empowered approach to life balance, and live lives that feel Sexy, Spiritual & Sane™.
Episode 019: How I Shifted My Mindset and Changed My Relationship with Food
In this episode, I share what my goals used to be in terms of my health, how I defined being healthy, what disordered eating cost me, how my mindset shifted and changed my relationship with food and how I've come to treat myself with grace and acceptance. I also ask you five questions to help you examine what is your mindset for truth health.
