Health and Fitness with Erin
This week on Energy Shift with Erin, she talk about why pushing harder isnโt always the answer and why maintenance is actually a flex. Learn how to recognize reduced inflammation and decide whether a calorie deficit truly makes sense for your body.
โ
โ
In this episode, youโll learn:
๐ง How to listen to biofeedback instead of forcing arbitrary goals
โ
๐ฅ Why reduced inflammation is the real green light for fat loss decisions
โ
โ๏ธ How to choose between deficit vs. maintenance without guilt
โ
๐ช Why sustainable progress beats pushing through burnout
โ
๐งฌ When deeper root-cause work (gut, hormones, energy, sleep) may be the missing piece
โ
โ
Next week, Erin dives deeper into how to maintain correctly, something most people were never taught. Sheโs also now offering functional lab work to uncover root causes like gut health, hormones, energy, and fat loss resistance.

Mental Wealth, Leave a New Legacy
For many moms, hosting is expected to feel joyful, easy, and welcoming. But for some, opening their home brings overwhelm, emotional exhaustion, and a nervous system that never truly gets to rest.
โ
โ
In this episode of Mental Wealth, Katie sits down with Laura Wood to explore why hosting can feel so hard even when you love the people you are inviting in. Together, they unpack how childhood environments, emotional unpredictability, and early patterns of needing to read the room can wire moms for hypervigilance and over functioning inside their own homes.
โ
โ
This conversation goes beyond surface level expectations and looks at the emotional labor of hosting, nervous system regulation, and the hidden cost of holding space for others while managing your own internal state.
โ
โ
Laura offers compassionate insight into the difference between capacity and desire, why boundaries around your home are not selfish, and how healing does not always mean pushing yourself to do more. Sometimes healing looks like honoring your limits and allowing your home to remain a place of safety and rest.
โ
โ
If hosting leaves you depleted or questioning yourself, this episode will help you feel seen and validated. You are not broken. Your body is communicating.

Untying the Knot, Supporting Women through Divorce and Beyond
The holidays are supposed to be joyful, but when divorce is part of the picture, they often feel overwhelming, emotional, and anything but simple.
โ
โ
In this episode of Untying the Knot, we talk honestly about what the holidays really look like when you are thinking about divorce, in the middle of it, or facing your very first holiday season after everything has changed. We dive into how kids experience parental separation during this time, the unspoken emotions they carry, and why the way we communicate with them matters more than we realize.
โ
โ
We also unpack the anxiety, guilt, and pressure parents feel to โmake it okay,โ even when they are barely holding it together themselves. From setting realistic expectations to creating new traditions and boundaries, this conversation offers grounded support for parents navigating divorce during the holidays without pretending it is easy.
โ
โ
If you are trying to protect your children, manage your own emotions, and survive the season without losing yourself in the process, this episode is for you. You are not failing. You are navigating something hard, and you do not have to do it alone.

Our Love Story, Q&A for Couples
The holidays donโt just bring joy.
โ
They amplify everything.
โ
โ
In this episode of Our Love Story, Katie and Dyanna unpack why emotions run higher during the holiday season and how that emotional intensity impacts even the strongest relationships. From heightened stress and family dynamics to unspoken expectations and emotional overload, this conversation explains why couples feel more sensitive, reactive, and disconnected this time of year.
โ
โ
This is not about one big fight or one wrong moment. It is about emotional pressure building beneath the surface and finally showing up when routines change and demands increase.
โ
โ
If you have felt more emotional, overwhelmed, misunderstood, or on edge during the holidays and could not explain why, this episode puts words to what you are experiencing.
โ
โ
Watch before the season passes and you miss the chance to navigate it with more understanding, connection, and grace.

Her Inner Circle: Pull up a chair, girlfriend, your circle is waiting
The holidays have a way of revealing the truth about our friendships. Who feels safe. Who feels draining. Who shows up. And who quietly fades. In this episode of Her Inner Circle, we have an honest conversation about navigating female friendships during the most emotionally charged time of the year.
โ
โ
We talk about the pressure created by holiday social media, the unspoken expectations between girlfriends, and why this season can magnify resentment, comparison, and disconnection. We explore setting boundaries without guilt, recognizing when a friendship has run its course, embracing imperfection in relationships, and giving yourself permission to choose peace over people pleasing.
โ
โ
This episode is for the woman who feels tension in her friendships, is questioning certain connections, or is craving deeper, more authentic relationships instead of surface level holiday cheer. If you have ever left a gathering feeling heavy, unseen, or emotionally exhausted by friendships that no longer fit, this conversation will resonate deeply. Listen now and remind yourself that real connection should feel supportive, not stressful.

Her Inner Circle: Pull up a chair, girlfriend, your circle is waiting
In this episode of Her Inner Circle we talk about what happens when someone always has to be right and how that energy can shut down entire conversations on social media. We dig into what it really means to be a good girlfriend being a soft place to land, not a fact checker or constant corrector. We look at the pattern of know it all energy where someone needs the last word instead of showing up as an equal and how that lands on the receiving end as feeling talked down to. Over time that tone quietly shuts down honesty, questions, and vulnerability and can make women afraid to comment, post, or reach out for connection at all.

Mental Wealth, Leave a New Legacy
In this powerful episode of Mental Wealth, Laura Wood sits down with MOMnation to unpack what codependency really looks like for moms today. If you have ever felt responsible for everyoneโs emotions, struggled to say no, or lost pieces of yourself in parenting or relationships, this conversation is going to hit home.โโโLaura explains the difference between healthy support and codependent behavior in a way that finally makes sense. You will hear how childhood experiences and family dynamics can quietly wire us for people pleasing, over functioning, and self sacrifice, and how that plays out in parenting, friendships, and romantic relationships.โโโTogether we explore the emotional toll of codependency including anxiety, resentment, and feeling like you do not even know who you are anymore. Laura walks you through practical steps to start breaking the cycle with awareness, simple boundary setting scripts, and realistic self care that does not require a spa day. โโโIf you are ready to stop carrying everyone and start living as your whole self again, this episode is your permission slip.

Our Love Story, Q&A for Couples
In this powerful episode of Our Love Story, Dyanna Eisel sits down with us to unpack a story that so many moms quietly live through. A wife shares how arguments with her husband do not end when the words stop. Instead, he drags it out, goes short or silent, and then expects everything to magically go back to normal when he is ready.
Dyanna walks us through what is really happening beneath the silent treatment, why blame and shutdown hurt so deeply, and how this kind of conflict can hijack your entire day and your emotional health. We talk about what you can do when you feel like you are always the one absorbing the hurt, how to communicate your needs without escalating the fight, and how couples can begin to repair even when one partner tends to withdraw.
If you have ever replayed an argument all day, felt guilty for even bringing something up, or wished you could be less affected by the tension in your home, this conversation is for you. Do not just survive the conflict cycle in your marriage. Learn how to recognize the patterns, protect your heart, and start building a safer emotional connection for you and your partner.
Watch now so you are not stuck in the same fight again next week.
