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 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 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 045: Seasonal Summer Eating
Holistic health is at the focal point of my practice, and the topics we talk about here on this podcast are through a functional nutrition lense. Viewing food as fuel and medicine is at its backbone, and seasonal eating is at the core of the “food as medicine” movement.
Seasonal eating may seem like the latest food trend, but it's an ancient practice that's been around for a long time.
In this episode, we'll discuss:
- Benefits of seasonal eating
- How to cook and what to eat for each season
- Unique aspects of the summer season
- Bonus tips for summer health care!

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 043: Safer Summer Skincare with Genevieve Blair
In this episode, I’m joined by professional makeup artist and MedSpa Aesthetician, Genevieve Blair. Genevieve has worked in the skincare and makeup world for the past 11 years doing laser skin care, bridal and event makeup, and high-performance product recommendations.
A year ago she opted to switch to all non-toxic beauty and personal care products, aligning with her clean lifestyle of better nutrition and cleaner living.
In this brand new episode of The Live FAB Life Podcast, you’ll hear Genevieve share:
Her professional experience as an Aesthetician and how she came to practice safer beauty
The top tips she has to practice safer skincare in the sun
Bust through common myths and misconceptions about skincare.

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

Episode 041: How to Start A Meditation Practice with Melinda Mrachek Staehling
Have you been curious about meditation and wondered how to start? Or maybe you’ve dabbled in it, but haven’t been consistent about it (*raising my hand*)?
Look no further! Joining me in another “real people” episode is Melinda Mrachek Staehling. Melinda is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner in-training and has been practicing meditation consistently for the past 18 years.

Episode 040: How to Find the Right Personal Trainer For You
In this final episode of my seven-part behind-the-scenes mini-series, you’ll hear me share:
My biggest workout struggles post-adrenal fatigue
How I’m trying to practice intuitive exercising
The gap I’m currently facing in with my fitness
Why I decided to work with a personal trainer again
How I went about finding the right one for me.

Episode 039: The Emotional Side of Weight Gain
My behind-the-scenes mini-series continues with a very frank and honest conversation on the emotional side and mindset of weight gain.
You’ll hear me share all about how I developed an unhealthy obsession with calories and the sense of control counting them gave me. I also talk about the temptation and effort it takes not to fall into old habits and limiting beliefs.
And I share with you the one question that helps me reframe my mindset and perspective on weight gain.
