In this episode, we’re joined by Kristin Maczko — neuroscience PhD, well-being expert, and integral coach. Kristin breaks down the neurobiology behind our need for connection and how understanding your brain can deepen self-care. We discuss how childhood attachment styles shape adult relationships and how healing happens through healthy connection. Kristin also shares practical ways to calm your inner critic through self-compassion. Plus, we dive into how attachment styles can show up at work and how to support well-being in the workplace (as both an individual contributor and as a manager). If you’re seeking a more holistic approach to self-care and relationships, don’t miss this conversation.

Many women feel dismissed by conventional healthcare—cycling through doctors and specialists without real solutions for hormonal imbalances, gut issues, weight gain, and more. The problem? Western medicine often focuses on managing disease rather than preventing it. Holistic and Eastern medicine, on the other hand, prioritize root-cause healing through nutrition, lifestyle, herbal remedies, and functional lab testing. Integrative medicine blends the best of both, leveraging modern science while emphasizing natural healing. If you’re ready to take charge of your health, step into a more holistic approach, and seek solutions beyond the conventional system, then this episode is for you.

In this episode, I answer your questions about hormonal health, gut issues, nutrient deficiencies, and how to uncover what’s really going on in your body. I explain how cortisol patterns, low progesterone, and thyroid imbalances are connected and why functional lab testing often reveals what standard tests miss.

In this episode, I’m talking all about how your mindset impacts fitness and tackling those societal pressures that push us toward the whole “exercise grind” mentality. Spoiler: I’m not a fan of that intense, all-or-nothing approach. Instead, I’ll share some tips on how to reframe your thinking so that movement actually feels enjoyable and sustainable. We’ll also get into the link between fitness and self-worth, why over-exercising can backfire, and how comparison and judgment can throw you off track. Plus, I’ll share some ways to shift your mindset, listen to your body, and focus on what it’s truly capable of — so you can start feeling good about moving again.

I start by discussing its origins and its impact on women’s holistic health: from gut health to metabolism and hormone balance. We explore the combination of macronutrients and micronutrients in this dietary approach, including complex carbs, high-quality proteins, healthy fats, and antioxidants — each essential for sustainable health. I highlight the importance of moderation with animal products, sweets, and alcohol. Lastly, I provide insights on how mindset and stress can affect your health, along with practical tips for enjoying life while nurturing your health.

In this episode, I answer some of the most common questions I get about women’s holistic health. I begin by addressing how to navigate feelings of overwhelm when it comes to health and outlining the foundational elements of women’s health. I share tips for shifting your mindset and establishing sustainable, long-term habits while navigating conflicting opinions about foods like meat, seed oils, and dairy — and how to trust your intuition.
You'll learn how to recognize the signs of hormone imbalances, when birth control may be an issue, and how to stop taking it safely. I cover the difference between normal and common menstrual symptoms, offer natural remedies for menstrual health, and discuss nutrition for fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum. Additionally, I explore a holistic approach to weight loss (including the connections between metabolism, hormones, blood sugar, and gut health) and the importance of reducing toxin exposure. I share my hot take on fasting and detox cleanses and conclude with the most important thing you can do for your health.
