Welcome to the season finale of The Fully Nourished Podcast! In this episode, we talk about why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies and intuition, and how cultural conditioning has left us running on survival mode without even realizing it. I’ll walk you through the Five Feminine Survival Archetypes ~The Fiery Huntress, The Wandering Mystic, The Devoted Dove, The Fading Maiden, and The Frozen Oracle ~ and show you how these patterns mirror what’s happening in your nervous system...
In a world saturated with health and wellness advice, it’s easy to get lost in the noise of fluctuating trends. Are the popular fads you’re following on social media actually messing with your body? In this episode, we peel back the curtain on the health crazes that might be doing more harm than good. From the dangers of eating too much muscle meat to the pitfalls of mindlessly taking supplements. We explore how social media and fear-based marketing have replaced simple, intuitive health prin...
Welcome back! As my birthday week rolls around, I find myself feeling less celebratory and more… salty. There’s a growing frustration I’ve been carrying about the health and wellness space, and today I’m finally letting it out. Too many women are being misled by shiny branding and empty promises. Behind all the perfect aesthetics and “healing” talk, there’s a lot of manipulation going on, and it's time to name it. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the hidden side of the industr...
Welcome back to the Fully Nourished Podcast! Minerals are all the rage in the health and wellness world right now. We’re told to replenish our minerals to solve everything from fatigue to hormone imbalances. But what if you’re already “doing all the things”? You’re taking the supplements, eating the nutrient-dense foods, opening up detox pathways… and still, you feel like you’re running on empty. This episode challenges the common idea that we just need to just consume more. Inste...
Welcome back and happy Summer! This seasonal shift inspired me to reflect more deeply on people-pleasing and the interplay between masculine and feminine energies. As women, our nervous systems are wired to scan and respond to the needs of others. We’re often taught to view our nurturing instincts as virtues rather than instinctual drives. But when our feminine identity is rooted in unselfish service, we deplete ourselves. The true nature of the feminine is to receive first before she can gen...
As we come to the close of the Universal Architecture series, I find myself feeling both reflective and deeply moved. There were many directions I considered taking this final episode, but my heart kept bringing me back to the number seven. This is the seventh installment, and in universal architecture, numbers carry sacred meaning.. To close this series, I want to share two texts that have profoundly shaped my spiritual path. These texts honor the Divine Feminine, whom I, as a woman, am call...
In today’s episode, I’m focusing on how the nervous system, fascia, and womb matrix relate to our spiritual and emotional design, especially as women. Our sensitivity to emotions isn’t a flaw—it’s a powerful tool for healing and transformation. Emotional suppression is rampant—both consciously through messaging like “good girls don’t get angry,” and unconsciously through generational patterns. Spiritual bypassing also plays a role, where emotions are dismissed in favor of moral or relig...
In this episode, I continue our journey through the Universal Architecture series by focusing on the physical body as a sacred temple. As we turn our attention to the physical body, it is imperative to remember that the physical body is comprised of two parts: the chemical body (matter) and the alchemical body (life force, metabolism, qi). These two work together to embody our spirit and carry out divine functions on Earth. Healing isn't just about detoxing or exercising; it’s about und...
As we continue our Universal Architecture series, I want to reiterate a fundamental truth we explored last week—that we are triune beings composed of mind, body, and spirit. This isn’t just a spiritual concept; it’s reflected in the very fabric of our biology, through our nervous system and fascia. Unfortunately, a great deal of fear and confusion has clouded this understanding, distorting deeper metaphysical truths into a doctrine of fear, creating barriers between us and the Divine. Christi...
I'm so excited to continue this Universal Architecture series with you, especially as we dive deeper into the human body and experience, where we fit into the grand design of everything. As women, we’ve been conditioned to disconnect, to ignore, to suppress—especially in the name of being “strong.” But our true strength lies in our softness, in our receptivity, in our ability to feel deeply. That is not a weakness. That is divine design. So if you find yourself in this place of soul-dee...
In this episode, I’m continuing a conversation that began last week, where I challenged the mainstream Christian view of spiritual concepts like energy, frequency, and Christ consciousness. As someone called to be salt and light, I believe it's essential to speak up when truth is being distorted. Jesus didn’t call us to worship him passively but to follow him actively—something many modern believers seem to forget. To be like Christ is to vibrationally align yourself with divine love and cohe...
In today’s episode, I’m stepping a bit outside the focus of this season, which has largely centered on the physical body, to address something I feel very strongly about: the misconception that energy is inherently “New Age,” satanic, or demonic. A big part of the problem is how people are reacting to anything involving universal architecture or spiritual concepts with the same fervor that echoes medieval religious extremism. There’s a rising wave of people labeling ancient, natural practices...
In this episode, I wanted to take a little time to answer some amazing questions and share thoughtful insights from the community. I’ve been getting really deep, thought-provoking messages, so today’s topics are all over the map in the best kind of way! There was a really heartfelt question from a listener who recently experienced a miscarriage and is now navigating hormone balance while caring for a 15-month-old on her farm. She described living a “healthy” life—eating well, being active—but...
In today’s episode, I’m diving into gut health, but—as always—I’m doing it in my own unconventional way. Gut issues are often the gateway for many women into the wellness world. But once you're in, it can become this never-ending game of "symptom whack-a-mole." One issue pops up, you chase it with a protocol, and then another emerges. What we’re missing is a foundational practice and a deep understanding of gut physiology and how it's intricately tied to our nervous system. Without addr...
Wired for Safety

Wired for Safety

2025-04-0334:56

In this episode, I’m doing something different—reading one of my Sunday articles aloud. This article, "Wired for Safety," gained traction in an old-school viral way, and I felt it was worth sharing. This was inspired by an Instagram exchange where a woman called me a "heretical witch" for stating that the female body is an oracle. Despite her outrage, I stand by my belief that a woman’s body is designed in a way that naturally sustains life and ensures safety. A woman’s nervous system isn’t j...
Cravings Are a Compass

Cravings Are a Compass

2025-03-2730:21

In this episode, we're diving into the concept of using our cravings as a compass. The seasonal transition into spring, along with the time change, has been a challenge for me, throwing me off balance despite my best efforts. It's a reminder that as women, our rhythms align with nature rather than society. The cultural narrative uses fear-based marketing to condition women to believe that healing is about fixing problems rather than embracing who they are. As a result, they get caught in an e...
Food Frequency 101

Food Frequency 101

2025-03-2027:24

Food frequency… What is it? I’m not talking about the wavelength of food, I’m talking about how often you eat throughout the day. I’ve gotten a lot of questions from listeners lately asking how often they should eat and wondering if they’ll need to eat every 2 hours for the rest of their lives. In this episode: [01:05] Let’s talk about food frequency or the frequency with which we eat. [03:22] The first rule of nutrition is, “Know thyself.” [08:28] Any changes you make in balancing your...
We are diving into the deep topic of hypnotherapy and the impact that our subconscious mind has on our bodies today with my guest, Heather Evans! Heather is one of my mentors from Living Soul Hypnotherapy a dear friend of mine and was my personal hypnotherapist. She’s joining me today to share more about hypnotherapy, how it impacts our brains, and how our subconscious mind is energy impacted by the experience of our bodies. What we feed our subconscious mind shapes reality and there ar...
Living with the Enemy?

Living with the Enemy?

2025-03-0623:35

Welcome to Episode 58 of The Fully Nourished Podcast where we dive into what it means to live with the enemy. Living with the enemy is a concept that reflects the internal and external conflicts many women experience due to biological and psychological factors. Many women exist in a constant state of low-grade survival without recognizing it, influenced by generational patterns of undernourishment and inherited struggles. Breaking generational cycles requires us to reclaim our own narrative. ...
In this episode, we explore what I call biologically appropriate nutrition. Many people approach healthy eating through the lens of diet trends, such as anti-inflammatory or weight-loss-focused regimens. This habit leads to a disjointed approach to nutrition, where people follow health trends without a clear vision of what true nourishment looks like. There is no singular perfect human diet because people across different environments have adapted to nourish themselves using what is loc...
