Discover the transformative power of self-reflection and conscious communication in relationships. In my profound conversation with Amy Guerrero, we unravel her personal journey through celibacy and sobriety — a path that led her to a deeper understanding of her own desires and boundaries. Amy's story is a testament to how our relationships serve as mirrors, reflecting our deepest selves, and how managing one's energetic capacity can make or break the connections we cherish. This episode isn't just a glimpse into Amy's world; it's a roadmap for anyone looking to navigate the complexities of intimacy and self-discovery.
Relationship dynamics are shaped by our childhood, and this episode doesn't shy away from dissecting those influences. Amy and I discuss the art of nurturing our inner child and the implications of dependency from our early years on our adult connections. By sharing strategies to avoid reverting to old survival tactics and instead pace our emotional responses, we offer a guide to cultivate understanding and growth in partnerships. Whether you're wrestling with the challenge of different processing speeds or the dance of attachment and boundaries, this episode provides a candid exploration of the delicate interplay between our past experiences and present interactions.
Embarking on the journey of relationships and self-awareness can be as daunting as it is rewarding. This episode is a celebration of that expedition, as we delve into Amy's current exploration of non-traditional relationship dynamics and the navigation of open versus monogamous connections. Together, we address the universality of abandonment fears and the importance of emotional honesty in mitigating them. By concluding with an invitation for listener engagement, this episode is more than just a conversation — it's a call to join a collective journey of empowerment and self-evolution. Tune in as we share a wealth of insights destined to revolutionize your approach to relationships and the self.

Imagine discovering the perfect blend between passion and profession, where the line between work and play blurs into a healthy life rhythm. That's exactly what online fitness and nutrition coach Chris Heskett has mastered, and I had the pleasure of uncovering his secrets in a delightful chat that weaves through maintaining work-life harmony, the therapeutic power of hobbies, and the enriching chaos of parenthood. Chris reveals how his love for cooking, gardening, and the great outdoors provides a sanctuary from burnout and shares how these pursuits have evolved since he became a parent, offering listeners a window into a lifestyle where health and fitness seamlessly integrate with family demands.
Feeling overwhelmed is part of the human condition, but it's the choices we make in those moments that shape our lives. In this episode, Chris and I tackle the art of slowing down—sharing strategies for setting realistic fitness goals, introducing new foods to children's diets, and the value of patience. Personal anecdotes, like my journey with my daughter's evolving palate, serve as relatable touchstones. We discuss the 'seven rule' for offering new tastes to kids and the wisdom of treating workout routines and daily life with the same level of mindful pacing, helping you navigate your responsibilities without succumbing to the fear of missing out.
The episode rounds off with a reflection on the cultural and familial threads that influence our and our children's relationships with food. We celebrate the joy of seasonal cooking, the bonding that arises from family food traditions, and the anticipation they bring. Moreover, I share insights on navigating the delicate terrain of food choices, moderation, and the impact of our own upbringing on how we approach our children's nutrition, with recommendations like "French Kids Eat Everything" for those seeking to foster a positive food relationship from a young age. Join us for this heart-to-table discussion that promises to nourish your parenting, fitness, and culinary philosophy.

Picture this: a journey of two old friends, united by a shared passion for health, wellness, and the power of nutrition. I was lucky to meet Anna Pleat, a medical doctor and equally passionate advocate for naturopathic medicine, during our shared studies at the University of Pittsburgh. Now, we come together again to discuss our respective career paths and the life-changing experiences that have shaped them.
From Anna's inspiring journey from Europe to America to her transition from naturopathic school to medical school, we uncover a world of knowledge and experiences. We delve into the health benefits of European cultures, the importance of health education, and the vital role alternative medicine plays in our lives. Amidst our shared stories and laughter, the realities of transitioning to an online business, overcoming online toxicity, and the overarching importance of preventive health come to the forefront.
But our journey doesn't stop there. We also discuss the launch of my online program, Body and Soul Freedom. A program designed to help people become intuitive eaters and view their health from a holistic perspective. The challenges, joys, and lessons learned along the way form a compelling narrative that I believe will resonate with every listener. So, buckle up and get ready for this ride.

When we are under pressure, we default to habits that temporarily alleviate the multitude of emotions we experience. Emotional/stress eating is one of the most common coping mechanisms because of the accessibility and normalcy of highly palatable foods.
High fat and high sugar/carbohydrate foods activate receptors in the brain that release serotonin into the blood stream. Serotonin gives us that “feel good” feeling; this is what makes it such a tough habit to break!
We try to respond by not having these “feel good foods” in the house, but, that just leads to overeating other foods or seeking out alternative coping mechanisms.
It’s time to ask yourself:
Do I properly deal with my stress, or am I perpetuating a vicious cycle?
In this episode, Shanon discusses how to recognize stress, how it affects our bodies, and the 4 key points to heal stress and emotional eating.
In this episode, we talk about:Rules and restrictions do the opposite of what we want. It’s time for us to take control. (02:30)We can’t change what we don’t recognize. Are you really aware of your stresses and triggers? (09:15)Often, we lack connection to our body; why is it important and how do we nurture it? What are some signs of stress that we might not notice? (15:30)How can we regulate our central nervous system and what are the benefits? (22:43)

Questions to answer while making life changes:
Who am I?

What do I want?
- What kind of self image do I want to have?
What is my purpose?
