39. Overcoming Adolescent Depression & Anxiety With Sadie Sutton Dec 14, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, I sit down with 17 year old Sadie Sutton from the She Persisted Podcast to recount her experience with mental health issues. At 13 years old, Sadie suffered from severe depression and anxiety and spent a year and a half in intensive care treatment. We chat about her success with DBT, how her mental health issues impacted her parents and siblings, the importance of recognizing adolescent mental health issues, social media, cancel culture, and how to identify mental health issues in teenagers. I think this is a really important conversation for us to have and am so happy Sadie was willing to share her story. We also chatted about pregnancy, mental health, and blogging over on her podcast, so go check me out over there (our episode goes live 12/18/20)!

36. It's Okay To Overeat During The Holidays With Nicolette Marie Health Nov 23, 2020

Show notes

I wish I listened to this episode when I was in the trenches of disordered eating patterns. I wish I listened to this episode when I lived in a constant state of fear — restricting and bingeing during the holiday season. I wish I would've been told that it's okay to overeat at Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner and not punish yourself for it by going to the gym for 3 hours the next day. I wish someone would've told me to focus on my friends, family, and the conversations to be had, rather than how bloated I was and how guilty it made me feel. This episode is for anyone who is struggling around food. This episode is for anyone who is overwhelmed by the holidays and needs to be reminded that they are not less than or a bad person for eating what they want. I am joined by Registered Nurse, Certified IIN Holistic Health Coach, and Instagram Influencer Nikki Jahnke of @its_nicolettemarie to discuss her past with an eating disorder, how she overcame it, and ways you guys can navigate food fears and food freedom during the holidays.

Jordyn Listro happens to be my brother's girlfriend, but she's also a bad ass professional soccer player who works hard, plays harder, and is all around total stud. Jordyn is a Canadian born and raised, but attended University of South Florida in Tampa where she played at the collegiate level for her entire four years. After graduating she moved to Tenerife, Spain for a short bit to play professionally in Laliga for UDG and now currently plays as a midfielder for the Orlando Pride in Florida.

33. My Answers To Your Questions — How to Navigate Jealousy, Different Sex Drives, Trust Issues, & More Nov 02, 2020

Show notes

This might be one of my favorite episodes yet. I know I say that often — but this time I really mean it!! I've been so open and candid about Lucas and I's relationship, and I think that's why a lot of you are always sliding into my DM's and asking me for advice on your own relationships and the struggles within them. Because I so frequently get asked for advice, I decided to ask my instagram followers to send me their relationship issues, experiences, struggles, and anything they wanted me to give advice about. Let me just say — they delivered. There is so many good topics in here that I feel like everyone can relate to. We're unpacking how to navigate jealous behavior, having different sex drives, dealing with trust issues, long distance, getting out of the friend zone, marriage, divorce, and finding the one. If you like this episode, leave a review on my show and let me know!

32. Wellness WTF's: Intermittent Fasting, Masturbation, Colonics, and More Oct 26, 2020

Show notes

We all know that I'm a sucker for some good self care. Well today I'm sitting down with my girl Sam Dowd, who I met through my college club volleyball team, to discuss taboo wellness trends that we've tried over the years. Sam and I were the gals in college who would go to orange theory, hit up the whole foods salad bar for lunch, go out for drinks later that night and be in bed by 10 pm. We were sort of known as "grandmas" by our roommates and friends because of this. Although, I like to believe if I was considered a grandma I'd be granny winkle. Anyway, we were also the girls who were known to be doing or researching or interested in new wellness trends and alternative self care practices weekly. So in today's episode we're breaking it all down for you. We talk intermittent fasting, oil pulling, masturbating, cold therapy, colonics, breath work, and more. We also get into why wellness can be toxic and ways to combat that. I love how casual this episode is — I.e. we go off on a few random tangents about middle school trends and other things not pertaining to wellness — so definitely grab your coffee or wine and have a listen.
