Have you ever felt frustrated with your healing journey — like no matter what you do, it never feels fast enough, linear enough, or obvious enough? You’re not alone. That frustration often shows up right before we discover that real healing doesn’t look the way we’ve been conditioned to expect. In this episode, I’m talking about the shift from frustration to flow — and why recognizing your body’s natural healing process is the key to lasting transformation. Instead of chasing quick fixes, for...
Building Your Voltage: The Thyroid-Gut-Circadian Triangle Welcome back to the Rewilded Wellness podcast! In this episode, we dive deep into one of the most foundational aspects of human health: building your cellular voltage — and why it’s the key to supporting your thyroid, gut, and overall circadian biology. I share my personal story of recovery after leaving a water-damaged home, a period when every small trigger — from sneezing to brain fog — reminded me how vulnerable my body had become....
Terrain Work: Why Your Body's Story Matters More Than Your Symptoms After 11 years of tissue mineral analysis and 44 personal tests, I've learned that sustainable healing isn't about chasing symptoms or following one-size-fits-all protocols. It's about understanding your unique terrain - your genetics, constitution, life story, and the environmental factors that shaped your health journey. In this vulnerable birthday episode, I share the biggest insights from my decade-plus healing journey, i...
In this birthday month deep dive, I'm sharing the profound realizations that have emerged from 11 years of quarterly hair mineral testing and my journey into constitutional herbalism. As we transition from Leo's fixed fire into Virgo's mutable earth energy, it's the perfect time to explore what real, lasting health transformation actually looks like. Spoiler alert: it's not what wellness culture has taught you to expect. After 44 hair tests and working with hundreds of clients, I've discovere...
In this episode, I'm calling out the spiritual bypassing that's everywhere in the wellness space right now. From "you just need courage, not healing" to "you're not broken" - these oversimplified messages are missing the complex reality of being human. After 11 years of quarterly hair mineral testing and watching my body respond to life, I've learned that we need BOTH courage AND healing. We need nuanced conversations that honor the whole human experience - the beautiful AND the messy. I brea...
I've been soaking up this magical Leo season, picking berries at local farms and making plant infusions that feel like exactly what my body needs. It got me thinking about flow versus force - and how we've all been conditioned to swim upstream against our bodies instead of working with their natural wisdom. In this episode, I'm sharing what my garden taught me about healing, why I've made some bold boundary decisions in my practice, and how to move beyond the endless root cause hunting that k...
I've never met a single person cured by a parasite cleanse. Yet everywhere you look, someone's pushing the latest elimination protocol. What if the obsession with cleansing parasites is actually keeping you trapped in cycles of depletion? In this episode, I break down why the warfare mentality toward parasites fails, what these organisms are actually doing in your ecosystem, and how our cultural shift from Capricorn rigidity to Aquarian innovation is changing everything about how we approach ...
Your Body Isn't Meant to Be Forced Into Submission What if the way we've been approaching healing is fundamentally imbalanced? In this episode, I share a deeply personal journey from forcing protocols to embracing flow, and why this shift matters for all of us - especially women. I open with a story from my recent new moon ritual at the wild spring where I collect my water, exploring how our relationship with the elements can become medicine rather than just another item on our wellness check...
Making Sense of Detox: What Hair Tests and Methylation Really Tell Us Why aren't your detox protocols working? In this episode, Lydia breaks down the missing piece most people overlook - your cellular electrical system. Learn why supporting individual detox pathways fails when your foundational cellular charge is compromised, and discover what your hair test is really telling you about your body's ability to eliminate toxins. Topics covered: • Why your cells need electrical charge to detoxify...
What if the very thing you think is helping you heal is actually keeping you stuck? In this episode, we're diving deep into why the "root cause" paradigm has gone too far - and how it's creating the very stress response you're trying to heal from. I'm sharing the difference between two energies: the Ouroboros (chasing your tail, consuming your own healing energy) and Magnetism (aligning with your body's natural intelligence). You'll discover: • Why hunting for THE root cause keeps you in figh...
In this eye-opening episode, I share a personal story about a severe poison ivy reaction that revealed profound insights about why your body might be rejecting minerals and supplements - even when you're doing everything "right." What You'll Discover: • The Hidden Connection: How poison ivy exposure mirrors mold exposure and other environmental toxins that trigger your body's protective mechanisms • Why Your Body Goes Into "Survival Mode": Understanding the Cell Danger Response and how it...
In this heartfelt episode, I explore the importance of patience, trust, and self-compassion on your healing journey—especially when progress feels slow or invisible. I discuss how true growth often happens beneath the surface, much like the unseen networks of mycelium and roots in nature, and how honoring this process can deepen resilience and facilitate lasting transformation. If you’re navigating chronic health issues, adrenal fatigue, or long-term detox pathways, this episode offers insigh...
This is one of the most important conversations I've had for those of you looking to go deeper and create an embodied wellness lifestyle. Are you exhausted from the cycle of temporary improvements followed by returning symptoms? Frustrated by health issues that persist despite trying "all the right things"? The problem might not be what you're doing, but how you're approaching healing itself. In this transformative episode, I reveal the critical distinction between correction (fixing what's...
In this deeply personal episode, I explore my three-year relationship with a remarkable plant ally - Mugwort. Far from being just another herbal supplement, this common "weed" demonstrates nature's intelligence in addressing modern health challenges. I share how Mugwort's multidimensional properties work in concert to support everything from genetic methylation issues like MTHFR variants to vagus nerve function and constitutional balance. As both a nutritional therapy practitioner and plant ...
You’ve probably heard that sulfur-rich foods like garlic, onions, eggs, and cruciferous veggies are great for your health — right? But what if your body disagrees? In this episode of Rewilded Wellness I’m opening up a conversation that doesn’t get enough airtime: sulfur sensitivity. It’s something I’ve seen again and again in clients and personally navigated in my own wellness journey — and if you’ve ever felt worse after eating foods that are “supposed” to be healthy, this might be you...

In this eye-opening episode of Rewilded Wellness, I speak with Dan Kittredge, founder of the Bionutrient Food Association and lifelong regenerative farmer, about the critical gaps in our food system: • Why finding genuinely nutrient-dense food is increasingly difficult in today's world • How nutrition labeling fails to capture true food quality and is outdated • The fascinating science behind our built-in taste receptors that help identify nutrient-rich foods • The concept of being "denature...
In this episode, I explore horsetail, a fascinating living fossil that's remained virtually unchanged for 300 million years, and its remarkable silica content. I share why proper preparation methods matter for extracting horsetail's full mineral benefits, going beyond quick steeping to unlock its medicinal potential through infusions and vinegar preparations. I dive into silica as the literal building block of structure in our bodies—essential for collagen production, skin elasticity, and b...
In this episode designed specifically for HTMA practitioners, we explore the nuanced art of ethical foundation-first mineral balancing that honors both biochemical principles and human complexity. Drawing from years of clinical experience, I share insights into the growing divide between "identify and attack" methods versus more measured approaches that respect the body's healing timeline.
