You do not need another extreme wellness plan.
You do not need to earn rest.
You do not need to become someone else to heal.
You simply need to keep coming back to yourself —
with more awareness,
more compassion,
and more support.
Because wellness was never meant to be something you chase endlessly.
It was always meant to support your real life.

In this closing episode of Season 14, Sue reflects on the conversations, lessons, and themes that shaped Whole Body, Real Life; a season rooted in simplifying wellness and reconnecting with what truly supports health in everyday life.
After exploring topics ranging from fascia and nervous system regulation to herbalism, hormone health, body image, caregiving, and emotional healing, Sue brings the season full circle with one powerful reminder:
✨ Wellness was never meant to feel so complicated.
This episode explores how modern wellness culture often pulls us away from ourselves through perfectionism, overwhelm, comparison, and endless “fixes”; and how healing begins when we slow down, listen to our bodies, and return to sustainable, supportive practices that actually work in real life.
Rather than chasing extremes, this season invited listeners to explore a more grounded path:
supporting the nervous system, honoring bioindividuality, nourishing the body consistently, creating boundaries, reconnecting with nature, and learning to approach health with more compassion and less pressure.
This finale is both a reflection and an invitation:
to stop fighting your body,
to stop waiting for perfect conditions,
and to begin trusting that small, intentional choices truly matter.
In This Episode, Sue Reflects On:
- Why wellness started to feel overwhelming and disconnected
- The importance of bioindividuality and personalized health
- Nervous system regulation as the foundation for healing
- Fascia, posture, movement, and body awareness
- Emotional and energetic healing practices
- Prevention, nourishment, and long-term wellness habits
- Herbalism, rhythm, and reconnecting with nature
- Inflammation, lifestyle, and the body’s signals
- Burnout, caregiving, and emotional exhaustion
- Body neutrality, self-compassion, and self-worth
- The healing power of slowing down and simplifying
Key Themes from Season 14:
✨ Wellness Isn’t About Doing Everything
Health isn’t built through perfection, extremes, or constant optimization.
It’s built through consistency, awareness, and supportive daily choices.
✨ Bioindividuality Matters
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness.
Your body, history, lifestyle, nervous system, and needs are unique.
✨ Your Body Is Always Communicating
Symptoms are often signals — not failures.
This season explored how posture, inflammation, stress, hormones, and emotional health are deeply interconnected.
✨ Nervous System Support Changes Everything
Healing becomes more possible when the body feels safe.
Rest, boundaries, movement, breath, and self-compassion all matter.
✨ Small Choices Create Long-Term Change
The little things count:
hydration,
movement,
sleep,
boundaries,
nutrition,
asking for help,
slowing down,
and listening inward.
Memorable Sound Bites:
“Wellness isn’t about doing everything.”
“Your body is not the enemy.”
“Healing happens when we stop fighting ourselves.”
“Small choices shape long-term wellness.”
“You don’t need to become someone else to feel well.”

What happens when you become the person everyone relies on, but no one asks how you’re doing?
In this deeply honest and compassionate episode of the Well2You Podcast, Sue sits down with licensed clinical social worker and Certified Dementia Practitioner Courtney McLaughlin to explore the emotional, physical, and mental realities of caregiving.
From managing the “sandwich generation” pressures of caring for both children and aging parents to navigating health crises, guilt, burnout, and decision fatigue, Courtney offers grounded guidance for caregivers who are carrying more than most people realize.
Together, Sue and Courtney unpack the invisible mental load so many caregivers hold and why self-care isn’t selfish, it’s essential. This conversation offers practical tools for prioritization, emotional resilience, boundary setting, and self-compassion during some of life’s most overwhelming seasons.
Whether you’re actively caregiving, supporting a loved one through illness, or simply feeling emotionally stretched thin, this episode is a reminder that you deserve care too.

• The emotional and mental toll of caregiving
• Navigating caregiver stress and burnout

• Managing guilt, expectations, and emotional exhaustion

Closing Thought:
Your body isn’t working against you—it’s asking to be supported. When you begin to listen, nourish, and move with intention, everything starts to shift.
About Rachel:
Rachel Stephens knows firsthand the frustration of having "perfect" lab results while feeling anything but perfect. Her journey through the conventional healthcare system—filled with specialists, supplements, and contradictory advice—led her to a simple realization: healing requires hierarchy, not more information.
As an Integrative Health Practitioner (IHP) and First Line Therapy Lifestyle Educator, Rachel has dedicated her practice to one mission: helping high-achieving women cut through the noise and focus on what their bodies actually need to heal.
Her approach is rooted in nervous system safety, biological interpretation, and prioritized sequencing—not chasing symptoms or adding complexity for complexity's sake.

Summary:
In this episode of the Well2You Podcast, Sue McCarroll sits down with shamanic healing facilitator Tom Darby for a grounded, thoughtful conversation about healing at the energetic, emotional, and nervous system level. Tom shares his personal journey into shamanic work and unpacks what modern shamanic healing actually looks like beyond misconceptions or extremes. Together, they explore the role of plant medicine (and why it’s not the center of the work), the importance of safety and consent, and how healing unfolds most sustainably when the nervous system feels supported.
This conversation emphasizes community as medicine, healing as a personal process rather than a prescription, and the idea that transformation doesn’t come from being “fixed,” but from being met, witnessed, and regulated.

Key Takeaways:
• Shamanic healing works with energy and trauma stored beyond conscious awareness
• Plant medicine can be supportive, but it is not required for healing
• Illumination helps identify where healing is needed physically, emotionally, or energetically
• Extraction is used to release energies or imprints that no longer serve the body
• Consent and nervous system safety are foundational to all healing work
• Healing happens at the pace the nervous system can tolerate

About Jenny: Jenny Powers has embodied many incarnations in her life: an athlete, a scientist, a wife, a mom, and a writer. Each one led her closer to discovering her genuine self. Collegiate basketball trained her to push her body beyond physical limits. Earning her PhD in Immunology taught her to push her mind past mental barriers and soak in how research works. Becoming a mom caused a tectonic shift in her identity, as she learned what is truly important in life, which included finally pursuing her passion for writing.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to combine many of her “incarnations” into one purpose, Jenny researched and wrote On the Origin of Being. She is continually toppled over in awe by the research and discovery of human nature and humbled by the study of our amazing ancestors. She lives in Colorado with her human and furry family.

This is Sue's first solo podcast episode! Tune in to hear about what it's like to live as a highly-sensitive person, and even what it means to be a highly sensitive person!
Takeaways:
• A highly sensitive person is someone that reacts or overreacts to things inside or outside of them in their environment.
• One of the challenges of being highly sensitive is not feeling like you're crazy.
• It's hard as a family to make sure that those people that don't react in a highly sensitive way are able to be empathetic to those that are highly sensitive.
• Figuring out how to set boundaries is important to highly sensitive people or just literally just all humans. That very first boundary is going to feel a lot harder than the second one and the third one.
• Tools I use to help keep my body in homeostasis: Flowpresso, IonCleanse Footbath, Infrared Sauna with red light therapy, Castor Oil packs, acupuncture, biological medicine, and more.

Chloe has experience tailoring treatments to clients of all backgrounds. She works with professional NHL players, preventing overuse injuries while ensuring patterns acquired for optimal sport performance are maintained.

Tune in as we chat with Kelly Kennedy, also known as the Lymph Queen. She will blow your mind!
Kelly Kennedy is a graduate of Cornell University with a degree in biology. Her interest in medicine began as a teenager while she witnessed her father undergo conventional treatments for cancer including lymphoma for many years before his early passing.
Realizing that good health is more than taking medications and undergoing surgeries, Kelly sought out alternative treatment for her food and environmental allergies that she had suffered with since childhood.
Finding relief with herbal and energetic treatments, Kelly began to pursue her own education in classical alternative therapies culminating with a two year intensive in European Biological Medicine under the guidance of Dr. Thomas Rau who was then the medical director at the prestigious Paracelsus clinic in Switzerland.
She completed her training in 2008 and began guiding people into health and wellness as a full time practitioner at The True Wellness Center of PA. Most recently, she received her massage license in 2019 and certification in Cranial Fascia Technique in 2020. Kelly not only continues to work with clients on a one-on-one basis she also founded The Beats, From Our Heart to Yours. The Beats is her educational podcast and informational portal for the latest in alternative, traditional and Bioregulatory medicine. Her interview skills are engaging and entertaining.
Most recently Kelly has been instrumental in exposing people to FLOWpresso. FLOWpresso is a device out of New Zealand that focuses on entraining bodies and minds to the parasympathetic node and moving the lymphatics. She is also the sole distributor of Sound of Soul. S.O.S. Is a unique heart rate variability device that converts heart beats into music and light. The Sound of Soul experience can have a profound effect on opening up a person to the greater possibilities of healing and self-awareness within us all.
Kelly lives with her husband, Ian, their son Silas and their dog Isha in Harleysville Pennsylvania. Her commitment to helping clients restore their health and wellness naturally, as well as furthering the awareness of the Bioregulatory approach to a greater audience fuels her professional passion today.

Tune in as we chat with Lauren Less about all things cooking allergy free!
Lauren lived most of her life eating anything my heart desired until she was suddenly diagnosed with several food allergies around age 25. She currently manages wheat, dairy, egg, sesame, maple, soy, buckwheat and peanut allergies. As you can imagine, she had to drastically change my diet. She refused to allow my food allergies to get in the way of living a fulfilling life and enjoying delicious food! From this, Lauren's passion for allergy-friendly recipe creation was born and she is so excited to share all of my recipes with you!
Lauren's journey to food allergy diagnosis was different than most. She had been experiencing several chronic symptoms for years, which ended up later being diagnosed as a connective tissue disorder called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS)- otherwise known as the trifecta. She is passionate about using my platforms to spread awareness about these conditions (many doctors have never heard of them) and sharing how she is personally managing them.
Topics discussed:
•Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS)
•Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
• Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS
•Allergy-free cooking

This week, Caitlin and Sue are joined by Lauren Gauthier, Functional Nutritionist and Herbalist to discuss the sweetest thing - sugar.
In this episode we cover:
- How sugar effects the body
- Why does it feel so addictive?
- Why it is important to balance blood sugar
- Ways to balance blood sugar
- Ways to fight sugar cravings
- Are there better “sugars” or do they effect the body all the same?
Lauren is an integrative wellness practitioner and advocate for truth and transparency in all realms of health. She trusts the innate healing potential within each of us so we are able to transform into the most brilliant version of self. As a practitioner, Lauren grounds her patients back into the wisdom of the earth utilizing water, sun, soil, herbs, food and microbes as her primary healing framework.
Lauren weaves knowledge from and trainings in functional medicine, holistic nutrition, health education, herbalism, muscle testing, yoga philosophy, permaculture, body work and more. She primarily works one on one with patients, in addition to teaching courses and designing nutrition curriculum.
Lauren’s journey in healing began after she was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease, at the age of three. Growing up in a culture obsessed with symptom management, it was not until her teenage years that she found the world of holistic and alternative medicine. Her own journey to wellness deeply informs the way in which she works with patients today through optimizing nutrient sufficiency with food and herbs, effective and safe drainage and detoxification programs, EMF mitigation, creating coherence with water, as well as mind-body awareness and resilient stress management.
Outside of working with patients, Lauren is the founder of The Abrothacary, a bone broth company focused on supporting regenerative land management and agricultural practices. The Abrothacary’s bone broth blends incorporate the magic and medicine of our tonic and functional herbal allies. When we support the integrity of the gut, we support the greater ecology of all body systems.
Lauren lives in the forest of the Sierra Nevada Foothills and when she’s not working with patients she’s dipping in magical hot springs all over the west coast.

We are so thrilled to have our resident therapist joining us again this season. This time to talk about navigating family dynamics, especially as we head into the holidays and will likely be spending more time with family.
In this episode Deborah touches on all the struggles and divisiveness affecting families today including politics, covid, drugs, LGBTQ, parenting styles and technology use.
She offers up 3 choices we all have when we have disagreements on these and other topics:
Compromise, Sacrifice, and Agree to Disagree. Listen as she provides insight into how each of these can work to ease tough family situations.
One topic that Deborah dives deeper on is technology use and how it is defining our family dynamics. Technology creates a space for bad behavior and creates a space for dependence. It is disrupting the way families communicate and interact and changing family culture.
She cites that:
66% of children have negative body image and poor self confidence
85% of american suffer from low self esteem, an all time high
And the result is mental illness rates are at an all time high as well.
Listen to the episode to hear her advice on how to reduce technology use in your family. Here is a brief summary of her recommendations:
Unified approach between parents
Consistency - kids need it to thrive
Provide safety and security and reassurance - don't just rip it away.
Have conversations about it, away from it, set up acceptable limits and expectations
Set-up windows and amounts of time
Kids need routines, responsibilities, expectations, limits, and safety
Some more advice that Debotah leaves our listeners with in this episode:
How are we modeling behavior for our children?
How are we taking care of ourselves?
Are we creating an environment in our home that reflects what we value?
How are we planning togetherness as a family?
About Dr. Deborah Brown
Dr. Brown is a psychotherapist and holistic health provider working in private practice.
She is a behavioral health researcher and writer, examining how we make decisions
about our health and our relationships.
“For years, I tried to change myself to fit into a world that was confusing,
inconsistent, and overwhelming. When I realized that this approach caused
me great pain and severe mental health challenges, I decided that it made
more sense to do the work to accept myself and change the world instead!
I share this experience through my work and my writing to empower others
to find their path through healthy habits, improvements in perspective, and
healing self-exploration.”

This week’s episode of the podcast is so good! And a topic that is so important for all of us to know more on. It’s something that Caitlin has dealt with severely and we are so thrilled to bring you this conversation with Andrea Telfer-Karbo, Functional Medicine Practitioner and Founder of The Remedy, to share all about the gut!
In this episode Andrea shares:
What “The Gut” is. And why EVERYTHING starts with the gut.
4 patterns that contribute to poor gut health
Gut-Brain Connection and lack of digestive enzymes
Dysbiosis
Insufficiency Dysbiosis
Bowel overgrowth
Some of the symptoms and signs connected to gut health. You may be surprised!
The 5 R’s of healing the gut
Key takeaways:
! Everything starts with the gut
! Food sensitivities are a by-product of a gut that isn’t intact. It’s a symptom, not a root cause.
! There are many symptoms that are not traditional GI symptoms
! There are natural ways to heal the gut and start feeling better
Andrea has a bachelor’s degree in Health and Human Performance from St. Mary’s College of California. As a Family Nurse Practitioner, she holds a Master’s of Science in Nursing from Samuel Merritt University and is board certified by the American Association of Nurse Practitioners.
Andrea is a graduate of the Institute for Functional Medicine’s Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice (AFMCP - 2012). She has studied with the Kresser Institute and Functional Medicine University as well as many conferences. She is featured in the book, Unconventional Medicine by Chris Kresser.
Through the utilization of Functional Medicine, Andrea has helped thousands of people come off of excessive medication prescriptions and restore natural balance to their bodies.
In her practice, The Remedy Martinez, Andrea helps people identify the root cause of their disease using thorough assessment of patient history, advanced laboratory analysis, clinical experience, bioenergetics and functional medicine principles. Using a unique and individualized approach, she helps her patients reconnect with their natural ability to heal and to encourage their bodies' natural states of function.

Dr. Jenn Parker is a pelvic health and orthopedic physical therapist and owner of Embody Wellness Physical Therapy in Livermore, CA. She specializes working with both men and women with symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction including bowel, bladder and/or sexual dysfunction but has a special interest in preparing moms for birth as well as safe return to movement/exercise postpartum. She is also a soon-to-be new mom herself! Baby boy is due early November :)
In this episode she shared with us and our listeners some key things to know about the pelvic floor and when to know if you should seek out a pelvic floor physical therapist. This was such an eye opening conversation as we discussed what some of the symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction might be whether you’ve had a baby or not and even if it’s been years and years since you had a baby. You might be surprised to know that that nagging hip or back pain may not be your hip or back but actually your pelvic floor.
Some other things we discussed with Jenn:
•In honor of October being National Physical Therapy Month she shared how she chose to specialize in Pelvic Physical Therapy and some of the things she treats with this specialty.
•How pelvic floor physical therapy can support women’s health. Why it needs to be more known about and leveraged.
•What should our listeners know about their own pelvic health and symptoms that may be connected to dysfunction
•Symptoms and issues that appear/occur years after having children that can be tied to the pelvic floor
•Birth preparation - both her own and what she teaches patients
Some key takeaways:
•It’s never too late to get in to see a Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist to find possible healing and relief.
•In many other countries every single mom goes to pelvic PT postpartum
•There is support and help out there. You may just have to ask for a referral or search for yourself.
•Get empowered. Take control and advocate for yourself.

Episode 95: More Matters Month: Simple tricks to get more fruits and veggies with Caitlin and Sue
September is More Matters: Fruits and Veggies month! As health coaches, and lovers of eating the rainbow, we LOVE this topic.
A range of colorful fruits and vegetables have a wealth of benefits for your health! But the reality is that most Americans are NOT eating enough fruits and veggies. A report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reveals that only 33 percent of adults are meeting the recommendation for fruit consumption and 27 percent are meeting the vegetable recommendation each day.
And the options provided to us in our SAD - Standard American Diet - don’t make this very easy.
In this week’s episode we share some of the benefits to eating more fruits and veggies and some simple ways to up your intake in your and your family’s diets!
Just a couple tips:
Eat the rainbow! A diet full of color will give you most all the nutrients and minerals your body needs.
Fill at least half your plate with vegetables and/or fruits and eat the good stuff first. You will naturally become satiated and not want/need the bad stuff.

We had the honor of welcoming Melissa Wiggins, mom to Cannon, Founder of Cannonball Kids Cancer, life coach and Sue’s best friend.
In this episode, Melissa shares what it was like having a son with cancer and how she cared for herself during this time.
Melissa Wiggins, aka Coach Mummabear, is a fiery Scottish lassie and lawyer
turned Master Certified Professional Coach. She has a thriving podcast, has
spoken on stages across the globe and has already penned her first book. At 38,
she claims the warm up is over and she is pouring into as many lassies as she
can.
When her firstborn was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer as she was about to give
birth to her twin boys, her full-time calling became saving her son’s life. Shortly
after, Melissa along with her husband created a foundation for pediatric cancer
research. Their foundation has since raised millions of dollars. Melissa ended up
burning out during her reign as CEO and has taken those teachings and turned
them into learnings for you. She has created her own tools and now shares them
ALL within EMPOWERED.Life, her 6 month coaching program. Melissa made
over 6 figures in her first year as a coach and deeply believes that money is
freedom. As a Mum of 5 - via step, biological and adoption - Coach Mummabear
claims you can be a fun mum and have a thriving career without burning out: her
mission in life is to empower women to do the same.
Topics discussed:
•Protect your energy
•You find yourself and your voice

Native to Montreal, Cassandra moved to Los Angeles in 2006. While her passions has always been a balance of conscious eating, with an emphasis on health and wellness, she thrived in the high-end fashion industry for over six years, building a booming territory on the West Coast. After investing in a few LA restaurants to gain knowledge of the industry, in 2013 Cassandra co-founded Clover Juice, which rebranded to Little West in 2018. What started as a 200 square foot juice shop in LA quickly became California’s premier juice co, partnering with hotel groups, high-end grocery chains, tech companies, and some of the best coffee and restaurant brands in the country. Most recently, and in the middle of a worldwide pandemic, Little West launched as Whole Foods’ cold-pressed juice partner. Cassandra’s vision for the company has never waivered, and Little West is known for having the highest quality and best tasting juice on the market, and respected for having unparalleled partnerships with customers and distributors alike.
Since becoming a mother to her sons West and Wolf, and realizing the importance of teaching kids about real food, Cassandra volunteers much of her time, and Little West donates a percentage of all sales to Big Green Learning Gardens (biggreen.org), and plants trees w/ Ecodrive to offset their company's carbon footprint. She believes that she can make a difference, whether it be by inspiring kids to try new fruits and veggies, or adults to have more fun in the kitchen, food that’s good for you should always be fun and taste great.
Topics discussed:
•Benefits of juicing
•Motherhood during COVID
•Small business ownership

Tasha is a certified integrative health coach, certified Quantum coach, certified meditation teacher, certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor. While she considers herself more of a mind body coach (500 hour trained Pilates instructor and 250 plus hour trained yoga instructor), she has close to 30 health, wellness and fitness certifications including food psychology coach and and holistic stress management specialist, but people never about those (well, one person every 10 years). People want to know if they are heard ,seen and understand them. There is no amount of “learning” that can take the place of connection. Connection is what Tasha does.

Kelly Kennedy, like many who enter the world of biological & energetic healing, had her own traumatic experiences that stimulated her in finding another approach to health. Her training started more traditionally at Cornell University with a desire to be an allopathic medical doctor. However, one particular year she was faced with her own health matters and the premature passing of her father. These experiences confirmed what Kelly intuitively knew within her bones; that good health was not restored through prescriptions.
After twenty-three years of building a health and wellness practice based in Bio-Regulatory medicine, Kelly is now paving the way for a new vitalistic wellness system to blossom.
A Bio-Regulatory system, where therapists, doctors, and specialists work collaboratively within a paradigm that focuses on allowing the innate intelligence of each unique individual to truly heal the body.
Kelly loves to talk about Regulation and Lymph and is often referred to as the “lymph queen”. Kelly is physically based outside of Philadelphia, PA with her husband Ian (her original practitioner in this world, blessed to be his wife now) and their son Silas. She continues to see and help clients with a bio-regulatory approach at The True Wellness Center in North Wales, PA and in Bluffton, SC.
Topics Discussed:
- Body's ability to heal through energy
- How to listen to your body through symptoms and meditation
- Innate intelligence is the best physician we have
- Dry Brushing
- Sleep
- Muscle testing

In this episode Sara Packard reveals her belief that one of the most radical things you can do in this life is to love yourself fully so that we may unburden our children and the generations that follow with the weight of patriarchal, misogynistic and oppressive mindsets.
Her biggest motivation and inspiration for doing this work is her five year old daughter.
"I believe that the way we change the world around us is through radical self-love. When we learn to love ourselves, our whole selves, we break down the walls and barriers that have been passed down and taught to us. We are all here to love and be loved. Let's begin with ourselves."
Sara is an emotional well-being advocate, writer, a movement and stillness teacher and advocate for radical self love. She is the creator of eMOTION - Online movement classes for emotional well-being and facilitator of The Meditation Circle, a group that meets twice a week to explore the art and practice of stillness.
Sara's movement classes offer a safe space for women to come and freely move their bodies and feel however they feel without placing any emphasis on how it will make them look.
She also works with women one on one to support them in the messy, gritty and beautiful work that is learning to love themselves.
Topics discussed:
- Dismantling perfection
- Learned behaviors of control
- Healing through feeling
