Dr. Will Bulsiewicz is a physician, bestselling author and one of the most respected voices in microbiome science. He joins the show for a deep dive into the powerful connection between gut health and inflammation. We break down how the gut impacts every system in the body, why chronic low-grade inflammation is so common, and the surprising signs you may have it even if you feel “fine.” Dr. B shares the number one food for lowering inflammation, why you can’t have a healthy microbiome and inflammatory conditions at the same time, and how to start transforming your gut barrier in just 3–5 days.

We also dive into the downstream effects of living in negativity and reactivity, the health issues tied to the Western diet, and how restrictive eating can backfire on your microbiome. Dr. B offers evidence-based tools to improve gut health, reduce inflammation, and support overall wellbeing — including non-food lifestyle practices, his essential supplement stack, and the truth about glyphosate and antibiotics.

We also explore why you feel better abroad, the gut barrier’s circadian rhythm, the 7-day outdoor challenge, the 10-minute habit that makes you happier and sleep better and his most unpopular health stance.

This is a concise, practical, science-driven guide to what actually works for gut health and inflammation!

Maggie Sellers Reum is an investor, founder and host of Hot Smart Rich. She joins the show to break down what it really means to be hot, smart, and rich financially, emotionally, and energetically. We explore the difference between being rich in time vs. rich in cash, how women can finally get a seat at the economic decision table, and the practical steps to building generational wealth through conscious spending, angel investing, and smart diversification.

Maggie shares her journey from the corporate world to working with Post Malone, the surprising lessons that shaped her career, and how she learned to stop molding herself into a version she didn’t recognize. We talk capitalism reimagined, cost-per-wear vs ROI, getting equity in companies, and the biggest money splurge she doesn’t regret.

We also dive into the emotional side of success: how to find your passion, when to leave the wrong relationship, becoming securely attached, reframing anxiety as a source of wisdom, and the small habits that create compounding interest in every area of life.

This episode is a masterclass in money, mindset, confidence, and creating a life that feels truly rich.

This week I’m joined by Sheena Zadeh, founder of Kosas, to talk about the real story behind building a massive beauty brand while trusting your intuition through every twist. She opens up about young marriage and divorce, losing her home in a fire, and deprogramming the belief that women are only valuable if they’re partnered. We also explore how confidence, self-knowledge, and true self-possession come from surviving what was meant to break you. We get into the reality of growing a brand (yes, even when you see celebrities using your products), her beauty philosophy and current trends she’s loving, unhinged beauty purchases, thoughts on aging, and the gifts that come from hardship as we navigate our 30s, step into our 40s, and fully own who we are.

This week I’m joined by Andy and Katie Mant — founders, innovators, and the couple behind some of the most forward-thinking light therapy and bio-resonance tools in beauty and wellness today. We get into how their products were born from a quest for that elusive pre-wedding glow, the science of circadian lighting, and the real difference between red vs. near-infrared vs. far-infrared wavelengths. We break down the irradiance you actually need for results (and whether at-home devices can deliver), how long to use light therapy for maximum impact, and the ideal order of skincare + red light for skin benefits. We also explore how beauty practices sync with your circadian rhythm, whether blue light is dehydrating your skin (and affecting your thyroid), and the surprising effects of your phone’s light on your face. Plus: how to use a PEMF mat for grounding or energizing, how frequency-based therapies are finally entering mainstream medicine, why red light can deliver visible results fast, and the most underrated tools and habits they swear by.

In this solo episode, I’m covering everything from overrated beauty trends to the wellness habits that actually make a difference. I share the product I’ve been gatekeeping, the beauty brands I’m currently loving, and how my AM and PM skincare routines have evolved as I’ve started aging—publicly. We get into how my perception of beauty has shifted, thoughts on constant innovation in skincare, and why sometimes doing less for your skin and wellness actually works better. I also talk about the supplements I take, how I stay flexible without slipping into over-optimization, and what it really means to hear your intuitive voice. Plus: the real purpose of meditation, navigating people’s opinions about not having kids, balancing an active social life as an introvert, and a few honest updates from the chair (you’ll know what I mean)!

Dr. Nicole Cain is a leading expert in trauma-informed Clinical Psychology and holistic medicine for anxiety and panic, and author of the acclaimed book Panic Proof. She joins the show to unpack the 9 types of anxiety and what your body is really trying to tell you. We explore how anxiety is more than a mental health issue; it’s often a message from your hormones, gut, immune system, or even unprocessed trauma. Dr. Cain breaks down the different types—from hormone and gut-driven anxiety to trauma, anger, and depressive anxiety—and how each has a unique root cause. We also get into the connection between autoimmune conditions and ACE scores, the truth about anxiety medications and dependency, and how to stop being gaslit by a system that overlooks the body’s role in anxiety. Plus, Dr. Cain shares her 3-step process to interrupt the anxiety cycle, how to regulate inbound stress, and simple ways to stimulate your vagus nerve to return to calm.

This week, I’m joined by Dr. Felice Chan, a Chinese medicine doctor who bridges Eastern and Western approaches to healing after years studying allopathic medicine including shadowing an oncology neurosurgeon and working at Boston Children’s Hospital. We dive into the fascinating contrasts between healthcare in Hong Kong and the U.S., the 5,000-year misunderstanding around acupuncture, and how our gut health connects to anxiety, depression, and even our skin. Dr. Chan shares practical, science-backed tips to reduce bloating, support digestion, curb sugar cravings, and shift your mindset around food—plus her honest takes on popular health trends like intermittent fasting and cold plunging. We also get into cosmetic acupuncture, what not to do on your period, how emotions manifest physically, and how to “eat your skincare” by nourishing your blood and creating a vibrant, resilient body from the inside out.
