Show notes

Chances are, you or someone you love has struggled with their mental health. The last few years have been particularly difficult and now we're left at the doors of a mental health crisis. The challenge? The ones working in health care aren't okay either.

Tay Lautner is not the famous actor you've seen on movie screens but she is married to him and she is going to make an impact. Same name, two different humans, one epic mission.

In this episode, nurse Tay joins me to talk about how "the Taylors" struggle with mental health, inspired her to use her passion for helping others and experience as a nurse, to change the narrative surrounding mental health.

Is Sober-ish A Thing? Jan 21, 2023

Show notes

Whether you're doing dry January or carrying on with drinking as per usual, "to booze or not to booze" is a question that everyone seems to be asking in 2023. Even Gary Vaynerchuk, who is well known for his success in growing his family wine business, recently noted, "the mocktail biz is about to explode". Health Canada just released a statement recommending adults consume no more than two alcoholic beverages per week, due to the increased risk of disease.

In this episode, Erin shares her personal experience re-introducing alcohol back into the fold after 1.5 years sober. Will alcohol trigger more anxiety? Is it possible to open the door to drinking but still say no most of the time? Is the messy middle social drinker and sobriety worth it? Tune in to find out whether it's truly possible to be sober-ish in a culture obsessed with drinking.

Special guest, Erika, a past participant in the Raw Beauty Reset joins Erin to talk about her biggest "aha moments" from the program.

How to Build a More Positive Body Image Jan 12, 2023

Show notes

Cringe a little when you see a picture of yourself? Feel like you'll never be happy until you hit "that number"? Pinch your tummy every time you walk past a mirror? Or maybe it's more subtle, but you've never felt at home in your body and tend to be critical of what you see. If you struggle with body image, this episode is for you.

I’ve experienced debilitating body image thoughts that have prevented me from doing so many things in my life. Through healing work and daily practices, I no longer derive so much worth from my body, and negative body image no longer impacts me on a daily basis. Over the past few years, I’ve been able to cultivate a lot of gratitude for my body, instead; I respect it and want to care for it.

In this episode, I share 10 strategies to help you shift from a negative body image to a more neutral or positive place.
