Detox & Chill

We have SUCH a good episode for you this week. You’ll remember Lauren from Episode #53 - we talked all about female sexual health and empowerment and how we can be truly in our bodies as women. Well, we are lucky enough to have her back this week to share her incredible knowledge on labor and birth! After starting her career as a labor and delivery nurse in a hospital setting, Lauren completed a certified nurse midwife program and now works at a birth center. In this episode, we talked to her all about the options you have when you get pregnant (as far as care is concerned), the process of labor, what different medical interventions can look like, and how to lean in and trust this beautiful process. If we learned anything, it’s that we definitely need a part three with Lauren - she is SUCH an advocate and wealth of knowledge. We feel so honored that we were able to talk to her today! You can find Lauren HERE and HERE on Instagram. As we mentioned, we’re thinking about all of you. If you need support or just someone to talk to - reach out!!

This week’s episode is really exciting and an expertise we didn’t even realize existed! This week, we have Ashley Harwood on the pod. Ashley Harwood is a fierce advocate for introvert entrepreneurs. She is passionate about empowering introverts to be as successful as they choose to be, while still enjoying their lives, every day. She is the creator of The Quiet Success Workshop, The Quiet Success Programs, and founder of The Quiet Success Retreat. Ashley teaches introvert entrepreneurs how their energy affects their bank account. She has taught hundreds of entrepreneurs throughout the country and loves showing business owners alternative ways to grow their businesses. When she is not spreading the Move Over Extroverts word around the world, she loves cooking, doing yoga, and swimming in the ocean. Through her own experience as an introverted Realtor, Ashley discovered that much of what worked for others in her office did not work for her. The year she realized she was actually an introvert, her business quadrupled over the previous year, and her life dramatically improved. This is what led her to found Move Over Extroverts in 2019, to shorten the learning curve for other entrepreneurs and help them do business in a way that doesn’t burn them out. Beck and Meg both identify as introverts, so this episode was right up our alley and we dive into all things about being an introvert vs. extrovert.

WE’RE BACK FOR SEASON 3! In the words of Jonathan Van Ness, Can you believe?! There’s no one better to be coming back with than one of our good podcast friends, Dr. Jessica Moy. You know when you just instantly click with someone and feel comfortable / boosted by being around them? That’s Jess for us. Jess has an awesome story (and one that many of us can relate to)! At the age of 25, she had gotten her doctorate degree in physical therapy. She was making good money, had gotten married, and was exactly where she had envisioned herself, but…things weren’t working. She found herself exhausted all the time. She wasn’t able to fully help people heal in the healthcare environment she was in and she found herself taking on everyone’s energy. She was working her “dream job” and while it felt really good helping people, she would leave feeling exhausted and terrified. She was already feeling burnt out, how was she going to last another 50 years here? We won’t give away any spoilers, but Jess figured out a different path that is much more sustainable and inspiring for her in the long-term. We absolutely loved this conversation with her!

Founder Caroline Rasmussen's journey to creating Antara is truly inspiring; after her father's heartbreaking diagnosis of early-onset dementia and Parkinson’s, she was moved to quit her toxic Wall Street job and revisit her journey. After relying for years on cigarettes, coffee, and other crutches to get through a cloud of anxiety and fatigue, Caroline set out to do everything she could to maintain her brain and cognitive function for the long term. This lead to her training in herbal medicine and meditation, and she later began to delve into the science of neurological health and degeneration. Through this research, she learned about the damaging effects of inflammation and stress on the brain - it turns out her burnout had not only been emotionally unpleasant, but had been actively undermining her brain function. Caroline sought out clinicians and experts in neuroscience and epigenetics to find out how to reverse the damage. This journey ultimately lead to the launch of Antara: products that marry both Western and Eastern philosophies in order to support brain health in a truly holistic and effective way. The formulas use centuries-old plant medicines known to enhance the health of the mind, and then amplify their effects with modern bioavailability technology. Along with this week’s amazing episode, we have a discount code so that you can check out the Antara products yourself! Use code DCXANTARA for 15% your purchase! We’ll also be giving away a few of our favorite Antara products this week, so stay tuned for that on our Instagram feed! Find Antara online here and on Instagram here!

You all know that the reason WHY we’re even doing this podcast in the first place is our passion for wellness. Beck and I bonded when we were struggling with some similar issues and turned to the wellness world to try and work through them. It’s been a space of primarily positivity and support and we love being a part of it. That being said, over the past couple of years, we’ve also had many conversations about some of the downsides and issues with the wellness industry. We think it’s really important to always be super transparent and honest about where we’re coming from, and we know that you all likely have some of the same thoughts and concerns that we do. We’re excited for you to take a listen to this episode and hear where we’re coming from! We always want to talk about the themes in our episodes, but we are DYING to discuss this episode in particular with you in our Facebook group. Head to www.detoxandchillpodcast.com/join to join us!

Brass Clothing is one of our favorite Boston-based clothing brands and today we have Katie Demo on the podcast! Brass Clothing was founded 3.5 years ago, when Katie and her co-founder Jay Adams were frustrated with their wardrobes. Years of shopping sales and fast fashion left them with closets full of clothes that never fit quite right or felt like good quality. They knew they needed better options, and they set out to provide women with higher quality clothing with a more reasonable price tag. They didn’t know it at the time, but they would spend the next 3.5 years talking to women about their wardrobes and the impact they have on our lives. In this episode we talk about… -Working a full time job while also nurturing your side hustle; -Building trust in your team to manage the business and take steps back; -Sustainability and the difference between Brass and fast fashion brands; -The ups and downs of entrepreneurship.

WE ARE SO PUMPED for this week’s episode! If you’re like us (well, Meg specifically), you struggle to find a post-workout drink that provides some protein for recovery, but isn’t hard on your stomach. Enter: Après - a post-workout bev that we can truly get behind. This week, we have the founder, Darby Jackson on the podcast. Well before Après was founded, Darby was diagnosed with celiac disease which inspired her to become an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and personal trainer, combining her passion for nourishing food with her background in sports. Through her work with women in her coaching business, she began to notice that there wasn’t a post-workout drink that she would actually recommend to her clients. Enter: Après. Founded by Darby and her partner Sonny, Après is recovery drink with plant protein, coconut oil, and coconut water. In this episode, we talk to Darby about… - How she became interested in wellness after transitioning from playing water polo and started her coaching business; - How she recognized a need in the industry for a recovery drink like Après; - The MANY rounds of product sampling that her and her cofounder, Sonny, went through to arrive at the final blend; - Her morning routine and how it sets the tone for her day Follow Darby & Après here: IG: https://www.instagram.com/darbyjackson_ IG: https://www.instagram.com/drinkapres/ Website: https://drinkapres.com Find US on Instagram @detoxandchillpodcast and our website.
