Dr. Seb shares his journey into biological dentistry and explains how this approach prioritizes compatibility between dental materials and the body, while also highlighting the connection between chronic inflammation and long-term health.The conversation dives into the often-misunderstood world of root canals, their potential risks, and how unnoticed infections can contribute to chronic inflammation. Dr. Seb emphasizes the critical role of nutrition, lifestyle, and the oral microbiome in maintaining dental health, as well as preventive measures that can reduce the need for invasive procedures.Listeners will also learn about practical strategies for oral wellness, from daily hygiene practices to detoxification after tooth removal, and alternative approaches like hydroxyapatite remineralization and oil pulling. Whether you’re curious about holistic dentistry, concerned about root canals or looking for actionable steps to support oral and overall health, this episode offers insights, guidance, and a roadmap for taking charge of your dental wellness.IG: @biological_dentist Website: https://wonderofwellness.co.uk/Looking for a biological dentist near you?

In this tender and deeply personal episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen opens her heart and shares her journey through depression. She talks honestly about the emotional weight she carried for years, the nutritional depletion that played a role in her mental health, and the unique pressures of growing up as a missionary kid—where being “joyful” on the outside didn’t always reflect how empty she felt within.Kristen walks listeners through the small but meaningful moments that kept her going, including the unexpected comfort of a beloved pet, and the powerful turning point that came through prayer and surrender to Jesus. This episode is a gentle reminder that healing is often layered—supported by community, nourishment for the body, and faith that sustains the soul. Whether you’re walking through a hard season yourself or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers hope, compassion, and reassurance that you’re not alone.Learn to spot the signs, test with confidence, and create a mold-safe home for your family by taking The OrganiMama’s Guide to Mold.Try out our family’s favorite non-toxic laundry detergent TrulyFree (we use unscented as a preference but the scent is safe!) - code is ORGANIMAMA for 30% off.Snag a copy of any of the OrganiMama guides 20% off with code PODCAST. Check out my website with more resources for toxin free living and weekly blog posts for more learning! Follow along on instagram @the.organimama and @theorganimamapodcast for exclusive content and lots of fun!

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, we sit down with co-sleeping educator Tiffany Belanger (@cosleepy) to unpack the real story behind co-sleeping, bed sharing, and why so many parents feel torn between instinct and expectation. Tiffany opens up about how her own struggles with her newborn’s sleep led her down the path of co-sleeping — a choice that’s far more common than people admit, yet not often admitted. Together, we talk about why so many babies reject the bassinet, how human biology actually supports sleeping close to our infants, and how light, responsive sleep patterns between mom and baby can help reduce SIDS risks.We also dive into the wide world of sleep training, how partners play into the decision-making process, and why safety doesn’t have to be complicated — from clearing bedding to choosing the right mattress materials. Tiffany shares how isolating it can feel for parents who co-sleep quietly in the shadows, and why open, judgment-free conversations are essential for creating a supportive parenting community.This episode is packed with practical tips, compassionate insights, and empowering reminders to trust your instincts. Whether you're considering bed sharing, reevaluating your current sleep setup, or simply craving validation in your parenting journey, this is a must-listen for anyone navigating baby sleep with confidence and clarity.The at-home mattress firmness test (PDF)The support pillow guide (PDF)The free Bedsharing Beginner's GuideThe Chest Sleeping FAQ GuideThe Cuddle Curl FAQ GuideShop Crunchi and use code ADVOCATE10 for 10% off your first order over $50.Check out OrganiBaby for everything you need to know to welcome your little one, including everything I love and use for my own babies!
