  • The Body Doubling Episode
    Oct 9 2025

    If you’ve had trouble lately focusing or being productive, this episode is for you. We’re talking about a concept called body doubling, and it’s something Carolyn and I have been employing to work through big projects, knock out mundane to-do items, or simply tackle our day job. In fact, it’s become one of the most effective solutions—and some days the only way—to harness our productivity and focus.

  • Rant Therapy: What's Next?
    Oct 7 2025

    The best (and cheapest) therapy for those small things that get under your skin is sometimes a good venting session so you can get it off your chest and move on with your life! And if you’re not privy to the first-hand vent-a-thon, then being a fly on the wall listening is hopefully equally therapeutic and also maybe entertaining.

    Welcome to Rant Therapy, a podcast short powered by the hosts of the Happy Eating podcast, Brierley Horton and Carolyn Williams, where we periodically share our real-life venting sessions with each other—AKA what we’re “so over”.

  • Creatine: What Are the Benefits and How Much Should I Take?
    Oct 2 2025
    Creatine is everywhere right now. While the supplement has been popular for years among gym rats, the benefits of taking creatine now far surpass gaining muscle strength—and especially for women. What are those benefits? How much creatine should you be taking? When should you take it? And will it make you gain weight? We answer all of these questions in today’s episode. Some of the studies mentioned in the episode: Single dose creatine improves cognitive performance and induces changes in cerebral high energy phosphates during sleep deprivation Creatine monohydrate pilot in Alzheimer's: Feasibility, brain creatine, and cognition Creatine Supplementation Combined with Exercise in the Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes: Effects on Insulin Resistance and Sarcopenia Creatine Supplementation in Women’s Health: A Lifespan Perspective

  • Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: What Is It and Why Is Everyone Suddenly Talking About It?
    Sep 25 2025
    Why is everyone talking about their pelvic floor lately? This really wasn’t something we ever heard discussed 10 years ago. But in reality, 1 out of 2 childbearing women experience pelvic floor dysfunction. And thanks to the interest in menopause, we’re learning that your likelihood increases as estrogen levels decrease. The hard part about pelvic floor dysfunction, though, is that it doesn’t look the same in every person. In today’s episode, we break down what the condition can look like, what symptoms may be, and talk through the recommended treatments. Bonus: Brierley shares the surprising treatment that worked for her.

  • Hydration: Your Most Common Questions Answered
    Sep 18 2025

    We’ve talked about hydration before. And if we had to guess, every one of us is walking around with a Stanley or Owala because you know the importance of hydration. But is there really more to know about hydration than just drink water? We’ve had listeners send us a variety of questions over the past few months: How do you stay optimally hydrated? Are electrolytes worthwhile? Can you get too many electrolytes? And are there certain periods when you really could benefit from more fluid and electrolytes? Ahem, perimenopause. So we decided it was time to answer them.
