The lives of young people today are full of uncertainty and stress. They are making decisions on relationships, schooling, and career paths and then there is the stress of the pandemic and social disconnection.
Wendy Van Dam focuses on helping young women in the millennial generation live their life fully through trusting divinity. Wendy (Ms. Divinity) shares her own life path and how she got caught up in other people's expectations. She talks about how she was living roles she thought she wanted but she still didn't feel satisfied with her life. She said she felt like a "robot" going through the motions. She eventually sought out a business coach who helped her "bring her soul alive" through learning how to trust divinity. She felt empowered to create her own life and leave her limiting beliefs behind.
Ms. Divinity helps young women find and pursue what makes their spirit soar. She is a mentor who helps young people follow their heart in choosing their career and life path. Wendy talks about "turning the lights on" in your beliefs and spirituality and to trust in your higher power and the spirituality that lives in you. Listen to inspiration about what your higher power is calling you to. Ms. Divinity invites people to become the next best version of themselves. She helps them create a vision of "what would I love." What are your gifts and talents you can use to bless the lives of others? What does it look like to Dream Big? Wendy teaches people how to ALLOW GRACE into their lives to change them for the better. She inspires people to let go of judgement and cocreate with God. To step out in faith and trust their higher power.
"You put in the work and let your higher power do the rest." This is a powerful message for challenging times as these.

This week, I had the opportunity to guest on the Are You Happy in Your Heart? podcast! I talked with Sarah Worlton about my experience as a wellness coach, and how I've learned to fight off anxiety and be more present.

Holly is a Certified Master Level Coach through Health Coach Institute and helps highly driven women build resilience to toxic beauty and diet messages. She uses an intuitive and spiritual approach that guides her clients towards self trust, confidence and Sovereignty over their entire being; body, mind and soul. From this place, her clients are able to make self guided decisions and finally live the life they desire in the body they live in today.
In this episode Holly shares her personal journey with her body image beginning with dieting at the age of 8 years old to try to change her body. Holly talks about cultural messages that condition us as women with a message that you need to "stay pretty, stay conventionally attractive, stay small." The 70 billion dollar beauty industry promotes women being dissatisfied with their looks. Holly shares how she chose a career in fashion a highly "image centered" industry and found herself struggling with disordered eating and dissatisfaction with her body that led to digestive issues, hair loss, and anxiety.
Holly describes her obsession with eating healthy and struggling with orthorexia and constant worries and fears about what she ate. She talks about how it influenced her quality of life, relationships, and mood.
Holly loves to help people transform beliefs and teaches her clients "Intuitive Eating" which focuses on a healthy sustainable relationship with food. Holly shares how she helps women see their bodies as a "person" and treating it as a friend and rejecting cultural messages of being "not enough."
Holly believes if we get out of the way of our body (stop trying to manipulate and change it) the body can self-regulate weight and health. Our body is our greatest teacher, our partner instead of our enemy. Holly began identifying her body as a person and felt less "hate" for her body. Holly helps her clients personify their body and honor it, naming the body, and exploring where body dissatisfaction comes from. She says hating our bodies is about conditioning and culture. We have been literally fed (pun intended) a system of beliefs (diet culture) that values weight, size, and physical characteristics above health and wellness. Holly shares her 4 part framework for loving the body we are in from 1) awareness 2) nourishment 3) resilience 4) sovereignty/freedom.

It is possible to make peace with food and accept your body just as it is. Find community, support, and education through as Holly calls it a "homecoming" to who you truly are.

Where does health start? Is it in your gut, your brain, your body? What if it all starts in your mouth?
For the past two decades, Janice King has carried out extensive research on oral health and its connection to systemic deseases. Together with co-founder Dale Winetroub, Janice developed a breakthrough patented oral therapeutics system: TRI-OLOGY (used and recommeded by dentists for 10 years). “TRI-OLOGY” technology addresses a key risk factor linked to chronic diseases - inflammation.
Janice informs us about the importance of balance in our gum health in having the right balance in the microbiom and necessary bacteria in the mouth. Janice says that for years we have been using products for our hygiene that are full of chemicals that kill good and bad bacteria as well as destroying human cells.
Janice talks about how in our quest for improved health we must look at what we put into our mouths. She says that we need healthy saliva to heal our bodies and ultimately influence our overall health. She shares the research on how chronically inflamed tissues and bacteria in our mouth can contribute to arthritis, cardiovascular disease, infertility and the plaque in the brain found in Alzheimer's disease.
When bacteria overgrows and your gums aren't healing then problems arise causing systemic disease. Janice will share with us how eating nutrient dense foods and using natural products can improve dental health and give you strong healthy gums.
We damage our gums when we brush our teeth with hard bristles and put cuts in our gums that need to be repaired. After 40 years old our salivia condenses and our gums no longer get the nutrient rich saliva to repair our gums.
Janice will give us tips on things to take out and put into your oral hygiene routine to improve the health of your gums, mouth, and ultimately your body and brain. This includes organic whole plant products to improve gum health.

What are your New Year's Resolutions? What do you want to BE, DO, or HAVE in 2020? It seems like every January we are excited to leave the old year behind and start anew.

Am I beautiful? Am I as beautiful as others? What does being beautiful mean?
Loving ourselves is a life long journey. For many women the subject of beauty can be painful. Rachel Buchanan has a long history of supporting women's health. After having an Acupuncture practice emphasizing natural remedies for women's health she noticed how each woman's environment, including her beauty and personal care products, were effecting her physical health. Rachel reports clients being diagnosed with diseases where the environment contributed to the decline of their health. Rachel shares about how many beauty products contain harmful ingredients and there is a lack of government regulation in personal care products. This led Rachel to finding a natural beauty product line that advocates for skin health in Washington D.C. Our skin is the largest organ in the body and absorbs whatever we put on it into our system. Rachel reports that 90% of products have not been tested for human safety. She feels it is a basic right to have access to safe products for all people. When we have the education about what we are putting on our skin we can make better choices. Rachel's passion is to help women feel beautiful and to be educated to make choices in their personal care products that can support and promote their overall health and well-being while also helping women accentuate their natural beauty.
Rachel shares the transformation she has seen in people's health as they use "clean" skincare products. Rachel believes that along with eating healthy, exercise, and managing stress we need to be aware of what we put "on" our skin that goes into our body. Rachel loves to help women who have health issues be able to put on natural makeup to feel good without any negative effects.
Start simple trying new products by taking care of your beauty and health from within you by changing how you think, and what you put in and on your body.
Rachel believes "beauty comes from the Inside" and that you feel more beautiful and joyful when you spend your days doing things that recharge you. Nurture yourself and share your beauty with the world!

You are what you eat, right? So if you want to be strong eat the strong foods. If you want to prevent disease, impact aging, and improve your mental focus, clarity, and mood, eat superfoods! What are superfoods anyway?
Melissa Lambson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Energy Worker, and promoter of holistic health and nutrition. Melissa has always believed that what we put in our body influences our brain chemistry. She became really passionate about this when her 6 year old son was diagnosed with Autism. As a mother she was looking for anything she could to help her son improve his physical and mental state. She tried diet modification, pills, and behavioral interventions. Melissa's quest led her to learn about the inflammation of the brain effected by poor nutrition. She discovered that our soil is depleted and our food doesn't have all the nutrients we need. Sometimes our bodies can't absorb what we do eat.
Melissa was introduced by her nurse practitioner to something new. A superfood supplement with power foods like wild Alaskan blueberry, Ashawagnda, Wild Alaskan salmon, Kale, Spinach, and many other foods packed with nutrients that penetrate the blood brain barrier and reduce inflammation. When Melissa started her son on this liquid superfood she noticed a stark difference in his behavior and ability to connect to others. Melissa tried it out for her acid reflux and after 7 year was able to sing again.
Melissa shares with us how stress impacts the body and how superfoods can boost the body with the vitamins and minerals we need. She will share with us the characteristics of fish oil, vitamin E, and tocotrienols that help people have clarity of mind, improved mood, and overall improved quality of life. Listen as Melissa explains how superfoods help with healing trauma in the brain, addictions, memory loss, and other brain based issues. Melissa will give us some "food for thought" and what you hear may change your life and health for good.

Integrating skilled physical therapy with the latest advances in modern pain neuroscience, McKay Murdock offers a personalized and empowered approach to your health and healing, with a special emphasis on helping people with chronic pain conditions.

McKay’s treatment approach has evolved and expanded with time and experience, being informed by both western and eastern medicine philosophies. He is a doctor of physical therapy, board certified as an orthopedic specialist, received postgraduate training to perform dry needling (a deep muscle technique using acupuncture needles), regularly performs spine and joint manipulations (similar to chiropractic adjustments), and uses other soft-tissue techniques such as myofascial cupping and IASTM. Skilled hands-on treatments can be very effective in restoring healthy movement and catalyzing your body’s natural healing process. However, McKay is always intentional to not allow a relationship of dependency with these modalities. True healing happens from the inside out. It’s an active, patient-driven process. Careful attention is given to empower the patient during every step of the process, so the healing is both thorough and sustainable.

Chronic pain is an issue for many people and it often gets in the way of having a good quality of life. McKay says how people view their pain can determine what kind of life they live. He shares how many people may view themselves as a "victim" to their bodies. The body feels like an enemy rather than a friend. McKay asserts that our relationship with our body may be strained and that our body may not trust us to care for it. McKay shares his own experiences with chronic pain and anxiety and how reconnecting to his body helped him see suffering differently and heal his body. He says that how we view our experience can help us heal or keep us stuck. McKay helps his clients be an observer to what is going on in their body, mind, and spirit. He helps them shift negative energy patterns and connect wholeheartedly with their body. He believes the body must feel safe in order to heal and balance itself.
McKay believes in enjoying life fully and freely. He loves his work and loves witnessing life-changing transformations in his patients.

Fifty Two Memories will start you on a journey to collect and share memories. DeVonya Madsen shares how her oldest daughter gave her this gift when she left for college. Every week, for a year, she emailed a memory of something done together. Those stories were just what she needed when her first child left home.

Depression effects over 10 million Americans and has been called a National Health Crisis. We know this but why are we still afraid to talk about it? There are stigmas about depression including being a "lesser" person or "abnormal" and feeling shame about being depressed. Yet depression is so common.
