THE LIVE FAB LIFE PODCAST
The Live FAB Life Podcast lives at the intersection of Human Design and functional wellness — energy, digestion, burnout, and why the rules you were conditioned to follow don't fit how you're actually built.
Each limited series takes a deep dive into what people are actually navigating — looking at productivity culture, the wellness industry, beauty standards, and who gets to belong with Human Design as the framework for the patterns nobody's quite naming.
Hosted by Naomi Nakamura, who helps Gen X women who are burnt out on corporate, laid off or seeing it coming, and who’ve tried every wellness trend and still feel unwell, see their own patterns. New series drop a few times a year.

Episode 057: How to Support A Loved One with Cancer
There have been too many times when I’ve found out that someone that I cared about was diagnosed with cancer and I didn’t know what to say or what to do that would be appropriate and supportive.
I didn’t want to sound trite or generic. I didn’t want to overstep my boundaries, especially if it wasn’t a close family member. And I certainly didn’t want to be intrusive. But I genuinely wanted to do something, yet there were times when I ended up doing nothing.
In this episode, Katie Leadbetter, of Clean Eating with Katie, is back for her second of three episodes this month, this time, with some words of advice for anyone who has a loved one who is fighting cancer. Katie wrote a blog post titled, “Five Things You Can Do for Someone with Cancer” and in this episode, we discuss what those five things are and more!
Episode 056: Surviving Breast Cancer with Katie Leadbetter
This episode is the first in a four-part mini-series on breast cancer for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
In this Part 1 of this series, I’m joined by Katie Leadbetter, a Nutrition Consultant, fellow 21-Day Sugar Coach, and at 35-years old, a breast cancer survivor.
You’ll hear Katie’s account of how she came to learn that at age 31, she had breast cancer. She shares EXACTLY what she went through, physically, mentally and emotionally in a very raw and vulnerable way.
Episode 054: How to Have A Productive Doctor's Visit
How many times have you made an appointment to see your doctor, only to have the whole visit last approximately 7-10 minutes? And you found yourself leaving thinking, “that’s it?!" And you can’t help but feel dismissed, misunderstood, not heard and worst of all - not believed.
In this episode, I get very tactical and offer up ideas on how to make the most of the challenges of the current health care system, specifically how to make your doctor’s visits more productive.
Episode 052: Taking Responsibility for Your Health By "Backing Things Up"
Have you ever had a health problem come up so you researched to see what might help?
And as you did your due diligence you began to see how the costs will start to add up - from the doctors' visits to lab tests, and the supplements all of which aren't covered by health insurance.
So what are you supposed to do?
In this episode, we'll discuss what to do in this situation, how can you be efficient & maximize your health care dollars, & what it means and how to "back things up."
Episode 050: Root Causes of Skin Problems & A Four-Dimensional Functional Approach
The conventional two-dimensional approach to treating skin issues like acne is typically topical creams, along with pharmaceuticals like antibiotics or birth control pills.
The problem with this approach is that these things only suppress the symptoms while failing to address the underlying root causes of WHY these problems are happening. And even more problematic are the more significant health issues that these treatments can lead to.
In this episode, I’m discussing the what the common root causes of skin issues are, and a four-dimensional functional approach to take instead!
Episode 049: Skincare Myths - Why the Conventional Approach Doesn't Work
At some point in your life, whether during puberty, adolescence, or even well into adulthood, that acne, or other skin issues became a big concern for you. It’s frustrating, depressing, confusing, and leaves you feeling soooo self-conscious.
You may have even taken medications to treat it, but they never entirely worked, and you still had to supplement with other over-the-counter products. Have you ever wondered why this is?
In this episode, we’ll take a look at why the conventional approach to treating skin problems isn’t effective, common myths about them, and I share my story on how I struggled with acne for over thirty years and what finally resolved it!
Episode 046: Gray-Area Drinking and Sobriety with Melinda Mrachek Staehling
In this episode, I'm joined by returning guest, Melinda Mrachek Staehling, who previously appeared in Episode 041. This time, you’ll hear us discuss:
What compelled her to embark on sobriety, especially given her successful career in the wine industry
What’s “gray-area” drinking?
What resources she found and relied on to help her on this journey
As a non-drinker, I found this conversation so insightful and educational for me, and I hope you do too!
Episode 044: Safer Summer Eye Care with Dr. Sandra Miyamoto
Eye health is not a topic that’s talked about very much when it comes to our health, but as you’ll hear, it can be indicative of so many health conditions and diseases like diabetes and even thyroid disease.
Joining me in this podcast episode is Dr. Sandra Miyamoto. Dr. Sandra is an Optometrist who has been a practicing optometry for the past twelve years in the San Francisco Bay Area.
In this interview, you’ll hear Dr. Sandra:
Talk about the importance of UV protection for your eyes
Share her top practical tips to practice safer summer eye care, especially if you wear contact lenses
Bust through common myths around vision and eye care
Episode 042: How To Train For A Marathon After Overtraining with Jessica Hofheimer
I first interviewed Jess Hofheimer way back in Episode 016 where she shared her story on overtraining. So if you haven’t listened to that episode yet, go listen to it before you listen to this one.
In that episode you’ll hear Jess talk about how she ran herself into burnout, overtraining and eventually adrenal depletion. At the time recorded that interview, she was embarking on a training cycle for a Spring Marathon, which she successfully ran this past March. While some may view success by the time they finished the race in, Jess’ mindset has shifted.
In this follow-up episode, you’ll hear her share:
How she now defines her success
How she trained for this marathon
What diet and lifestyle habits she did differently this time
How she recovered from the race
What “running with integrity” means to her
What’s next on her race calendar
