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.

THE LIVE FAB LIFE PODCAST
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 055: Understanding Obesogens: The Link Between Toxins and Weight
When it comes to weight and healthy living, toxins are a critical missing piece to the conversation that’s not talked about enough but can no longer be ignored.
In this episode, I discuss:
What are obesogens
The link between toxins and weight
How unsuspecting items in your home may be interfering with or undermining the hard work you put into being fit and healthy
Actionable steps you can do to reduce your exposure to obesogens
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 053: Defining Clean Eating and How to Put It Into Practice
“I’m already eating clean?” is a response I get from a lot of people, who are working in improving their health but still struggling.
When I review how they're eating, I see gaps between their perceptions of “eating clean” versus what it actually means, and I’ve come to realize that many people just don’t understand what clean eating is and then wonder why they aren’t seeing the progress they’re expecting.
In this episode, I share:
How I define clean eating
What foods to avoid
How to put it into practice
And much more!
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 051: Bariatrics, Autoimmune Diseases and Bridging the Gap Between Convention and Holistic Medicine with Lori Newlon
In this episode, I’m joined by my dear friend, Lori Newlon of The Bariatric Dish. Lori is a registered nurse (she has 18 years of experience and counting!) with a specialty certification in bariatric nursing.
Thirteen years ago, she herself had weight loss surgery and struggled with a number of post-operative complications. She turned to real food nutrition to help support her recovery and long-term health which has helped her maintain a 160-pound weight loss. She’s since become a certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and also runs her own counseling practice helping clients work towards improved health and wellness by adopting a real, whole food diet.
Since having bariatric surgery, Lori has developed not one, not two, but THREE autoimmune diseases, Reynard’s Disease, psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.
You’ll hear Lori and I chat about a number of things from what is Nutritional Therapy, to her experience with weight loss surgery, how it led her to specialize in Bariatric nursing, and how holistic practices helped her recover from it, ultimately leading her to become a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and start her own counseling practice.
We also talk about:
How she bridges the gap between conventional and holistic medicine
Her struggles with three autoimmune diseases
And we even get into “what is gut health” and how important it is to overall wellness, what is Leaky Gut Syndrome and even how heart disease is tied to sugar, not fats!
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 048: Mindset and Disordered Eating with Kym Hermann
Healing and recovering from an eating disorder led Kym Hermann to guide others to navigate their wellness journeys.
Kym is a Certified Nutrition Consultant who believes that everyone can find freedom from food bondage and self-limiting beliefs. Using holistic nutrition and mindset, she helps people unlock their real potential by nourishing their minds and bodies with real food nutrition and self-introspection.
In this raw and personal interview, Kym tells us about:
Her seven years of disordered eating and the mindset she was in at the time
The work she put in to recover from it
Lasting damages she still struggles with today
How she guides others to navigate their way through similar journeys
