In honor of Well+Good’s inaugural SPF Awards, we’re laying it on thick. With so many sunscreen products to apply, there’s really no excuse for skipping the crucial skin-care step. Any dermatologist will tell you that the “best” sunscreen is the one you’ll wear every day, but we’re getting a bit more specific with product recommendations.
In this episode, board-certified dermatologist Adeline Kikam, DO, FAAD, Supergoop founder Holly Thaggard, and Black Girl Sunscreen founder Shontay Lundy highlight the importance of inclusive sunscreen products and bridging the information gap of sun safety.
Learn more about our 2023 SPF Award picks here
HOST: Taylor Camille, Director of Podcasts at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Shontay Lundy, Founder of Black Girl Sunscreen
Dr. Adeline Kikam, Dermatologist and Founder of Brown Skin Derm
Holly Thaggard, Founder of Supergoop!
WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT:
Shontay shares how her experience as a woman of color informed her relationship with sunscreen as a child and young adult; when she couldn’t find a product that didn’t cast a white tint on her skin, she decided to create her own. Check her out here, and check out Black Girl Sunscreen here.
Dr. Kikam breaks down the technical side of why we all need to take sun protection seriously, and how we can use media and marketing to re-shape perceptions when it comes to making the suncare industry more inclusive. Find her here.
Holly walks us through the story behind Supergoop! and actionable steps we can take to stop the skin cancer epidemic. You can find her here, and Supergoop! here.

So much of fashion is wrapped up in the pressure to conform while simultaneously telling you that your body isn't good enough for the "cool clothes." But what you wear can transform your self-confidence in unexpected ways. Your personal style doesn't have to define you. But it can be an expressive extension of yourself that doesn't feel like a chore.
In this week’s episode, we're having a conversation with fashion psychologist Shakaila Forbes-Bell, MA, and wardrobe stylist Sophie Strauss to talk about the profoundly positive power of dressing up in all its forms.
HOST: Taylor Camille, Director of Podcasts at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Shakaila Forbes-Bell, Fashion Psychologist and author of ‘Big Dress Energy’

Shakaila shares her 4,3,2,1 rule for how she approaches shopping for new items along with many other studies that give insight into our relationship with our clothes. You can find more from Shakaila here.
Sophie reminds us that we can all use a little help in finding your personal style and that sometimes it requires playing dress up. You can find more from Sophie here and see her services on her website here.

The United States has experienced unprecedented destruction of reproductive rights in recent years. Perhaps the most jarring example, in 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, which guaranteed a constitutional right to abortion. And while not currently restricted like abortion, though it is often conflated with it, many barriers still block access to emergency contraception, or the morning-after pill.
In this episode, Amanda Johnson Morrison, co-founder and president of Julie, a new reproductive health company, explains what so many people get wrong about emergency contraception and why it's so important that the morning-after pill is accessible to everyone who needs it.
HOST: Ella Dove, Sr. Director of Creative Development at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Amanda Johnson Morrison, Co-Founder of Julie
WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT:
Amanda Johnson Morrison talks about Julie, a new company that she has co-founded in an effort to revamp the morning after pill and make emergency contraception more accessible through education and distribution. You can find more from Amanda and Julie here.

Fueling up is key to any exercise routine. But there's so much to consider with an individualized approach to maintaining energy levels during a workout. What's best to eat and drink before exercising? Do I need to refuel during my workout? What should I consume after?
The answers to these questions and more will vary from person to person. For this episode, we've gathered a group of runners and friends of the show to talk about their fueling methods, which will hopefully lend some inspiration... or at least steer you toward a tasty snack.

The idea of ‘main character energy’ rose in popularity in 2021 after a TikTok trend that promoted romanticizing your life and focusing on yourself. Though, as is common with social media there is a tendency to take things too far. We have seen this energy play out in its best form, when it's used to help build a person's confidence and in its worst…it can be difficult to determine if it's borderline narcissistic. So, is there a line that can exist between being the main character and being a complete narcissist? And if so, what is it?

Dry January has come and gone but what could a future of sober socializing look like? As a culture that puts an emphasis on drinking as the main social activity in dating, friendships, celebrations and work outings this can be a challenging piece of social interaction to face. And it’s often agreed- If you’re not drinking you’re inevitably having less fun.

“Vacation” is a loaded term these days. While cost has always been an obstacle to taking time off, throw in pandemic-related safety concerns, ever-changing travel restrictions, and an always-on corporate culture–it’s no surprise that even if we do manage to get away, our stress always catches up with us. Whether we’re lying on a beach somewhere or sitting on the couch at home, we know that finding a way to hit the mental reset button is the most powerful tool we have to effectively fight off burn-out long term. Is there a way to bottle up that vacation feeling and infuse it into our daily lives?

When it comes to sticking to our sleep schedules every night, most of us can admit that there is definitely room for improvement. Even for people with a solid sleep strategy, continuously getting a good night’s sleep has only become more elusive since the pandemic began. When we’re deep in the throes of sleepless nights and feeling groggy every single morning, we want concrete answers: How many hours of sleep do I need a night? How many milligrams of sleep supplements do I take? The reality is–there’s never a one-size-fits-all as every aspect of our wellness routines are completely individualized. So, how do we create a sleep schedule for ourselves that we can actually stick to?

In close friendships, you are typically equally as invested in their love lives as they are. Commiserating over bad dates and failed situationships can bring friends together, but what happens when your bestie starts dating someone you don’t like? Whether your friend is overlooking some major red flags in their new partner or just generally spending less time with you, we’ve been there–and we get it. Most of the time, it seems like there are only two not-so-great options: ignore how you feel and build resentment or confront them and risk damaging the friendship. Lucky for you, in this episode, we sit down with a friendship expert who reveals: there’s a third, even better option out there.

As the Director of Relationship Science at Hinge, Logan Ury knows that while love is a natural human instinct, dating is not. It’s safe to say that most of us have seen one too many rom coms to fully be able to view our love lives objectively. (Wouldn’t it just be easier if we could all move to London and have Jude Law come knocking on our door à la The Holiday?) The reality is, most of us have blind spots that are holding us back from getting what we ultimately want out of dating. How can we forget happily ever after and find intentionally ever after?

Are you guilty of saving lots of inspirational quotes on Instagram that you never look at again? Us too. Sometimes when we’re in the throes of self-improvement or goal setting, it’s easy to get caught up in the planning and less in the doing.

Even though our lives don’t magically reset when the clock strikes midnight on January 1st, there’s no doubt that entering a new year gives us a newfound sense of possibility–which can make us resolution-happy. The problem is, when we put too much pressure on ourselves with a lengthy list of “shoulds,” we often end up feeling even worse. That’s why Well+Good’s 2022 ReNew Year Program is focused on refreshing and resetting our habits–not reinventing them. What if we didn’t need to change anything about ourselves to feel our best? In this episode, we sat down with a positive psychiatrist and a joy expert to answer: How can we infuse more joy in our lives this year instead of stressing about resolutions?
HOST:
Ella Dove, Director, Creative Development at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Dr. Samantha Boardman, Positive Psychiatrist, Author of “Everyday Vitality,” Founder of the “Positive Prescription” Blog
Ingrid Fetell Lee, Designer, Author of “Joyful,” and Founder of “The Aesthetics of Joy” Blog
WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT:
Dr. Samantha instructs us to be ‘deliberate about delight,’ and breaks down the best method for blocking out the ‘pings and dings’ around us. Check her out here and Positive Prescription here.
Ingrid explains that the way we’ve been thinking about joy is all wrong–but good news, making one quick mental adjustment can help us to find more of it in our day to day lives. Find her here and check out The Aesthetics of Joy here.

At Well+Good, we know that New Year's Resolutions aren’t always all they’re cracked up to be, but we also know that the start of a new year is still a great time to hit refresh. That’s why we’ve tapped industry experts to help us create our annual ReNew Year Program: a four-week plan to help you along your way to living well in 2022. The best part about our ReNew Year plan? It’s completely optional, because the pressure many of us feel to reinvent ourselves on January 1 is no joke. In today’s episode, we’re pulling the curtain back on the #1 offender when it comes to resolution-related stress: diet culture. How can we say yes to feeling better and no to cleanses, detoxes, and restrictive eating in 2022?

Take a deep breath, we made it to 2022. However, as we look to see what the new year will bring, it can be difficult to get a good sense of where we’re headed when there is so much unknown. Enter: Astrology. Whether you’re a firm believer or an astro-skeptic, looking at the planetary alignments for the year ahead can help us to stay grounded and give us a clearer idea of what we can expect in the future, even in times of uncertainty. How can we use astrology to let go of the old, welcome the new, and move forward with confidence and ease in 2022?

It’s our final episode of 2021: We’ve spoken to 89 guests, 9 Well+Good team members, and recorded (and re-recorded) nearly 6,000 minutes of audio this year. It’s safe to say that since we’ve launched, we’ve gained a whole new understanding of what it means to live well–and we hope you have too. As we learned from activist and author Rachel Ricketts in our very first episode, you don’t need anything else outside of yourself to live well, it’s just a matter of re-learning what you already know. We hope that as you listened to the experts in each episode, you’ve been able to find moments that resonated with you and helped you return to yourself. Join us as we take a trip down memory lane and reflect on a few moments from our podcast that were simply the best.

We’ve asked the experts, dug into the data, and scoured the market. Now, we’re calling it: These are the biggest trends and most groundbreaking innovations that will dominate the wellness conversation—and your well-being—in 2022. When it comes to the beauty industry, there have been more changes in the past two years than ever before: Bigger brands are stepping up to deliver more inclusive products for a wider variety of hair types, “skin longevity” products seek to stop signs of aging in their tracks, and a de-gendered skincare market is opening up like we’ve never seen it. In this episode, we are joined by three expert Well+Good staffers who will answer: What beauty innovations should be on our radar in 2022?

Winter 2021 is coming: the days are getting shorter, the nights are getting longer, and the presence of a new COVID-19 variant is looming. Tldr; it’s getting harder to feel better. While the pandemic has made it increasingly more difficult to sweep our negative emotions under the rug, it has also exposed the reality that no one is immune to feeling sadness or experiencing setbacks. As we continue to navigate the good days and bad days in our own lives, how can we widen the definition of “happiness” to make it more attainable? How can we simultaneously steer clear of toxic positivity and find authentic ways to infuse more joy into our lives?

Mothers are in crisis. For the past 18 months, mothers have been continuously achieving the impossible: Raising, educating, and providing for their children amidst a global pandemic–with no days off. Due to the challenges posed by the pandemic, mothers have been dropping out of the workforce in record numbers and new mothers are experiencing increased feelings of depression and anxiety like never before. It’s no surprise that for many moms, their personal well-being has taken a backseat to, well, getting through the day, sanity in-tact. In this episode, we hear from three incredible mothers who share their experiences over the course of the pandemic so far, how things are going now, and what we can all learn from the strength and resilience of all of the mothers in our lives.

Throw a stone at a wellness expert and they’ll tell you that mindfulness and stress reduction are the keys to living a long and healthy life. Additionally, last year the American Psychological Association reported that 2 in 3 adults described feeling significant stress over the course of the pandemic; a statistic that doesn’t seem to be decreasing any time soon. Despite chronic stress not being taken as seriously as other conditions by some medical practitioners, we are learning more and more how stress impacts the body in a very real way, and no, it’s not “all in your head.” While no one is certain what the next year will look like, one thing is absolutely certain: we need to calm down… but how do we do it?

Whether we’ve enjoyed it or not, we’ve all had plenty of time over this past year and a half to really get to know one person in particular: ourselves. While it’s no question that flexing our social muscles and connecting with others is important for our overall sense of well-being, how can we start to have more meaningful experiences by ourselves? (Without checking Instagram every few minutes or catching up on work emails). Consider this your sign to clear your schedule, head to your favorite restaurant, and book a table for one.

If asked to DTR with social media, many of us would answer: it’s complicated. When Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp went down on October 4, 2021, it became impossible to ignore how complicated that relationship really is. On the one hand, we got a day to check back in with ourselves IRL, but on the other… Many of us would be ashamed to admit how many times we checked to see if the apps were back up and running. When it comes to being sucked into the scroll, are we as individual consumers entirely to blame? It’s clear that whether we like it or not, most of us are in a committed relationship with social media, so how do we make it better?

Welcome to “Inflammation Nation,” where the bigger picture of the many factors that affect our health and well-being tends to get overlooked. Additionally, as is the case when it comes to any over-inflated wellness buzzword, there are always plenty of people and places trying to sell us the magic cure-all… anti-inflammatory granola bar, anyone? When it comes to inflammation, it’s safe to say that the implications of the word itself have gotten... over-inflamed. What do we need to pay attention to when it comes to inflammation in the body and what is just inflammatory language?

Many of us have a very distinct picture in our minds when it comes to your typical runner: Someone who hops out of bed first thing in the morning without hesitation, laces up their sneakers, and covers miles on end without ever running out of breath or breaking a sweat. The reality? Running is an individual practice that looks different for everyone. In this episode, we hear from four trailblazers in the running space who are redefining what it means to be a runner and how nurturing our relationship with the sport is more important than how fast, how far, or how often we run.

As we head into the final months of 2021, one thing is abundantly clear: it’s okay to say that we’re not okay. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, one in five adults in the U.S. live with a mental illness; a situation that’s only been made worse by the pandemic. With more people than ever standing up for their mental health and seeking out therapy for the first time, another crack in the system has been revealed–there aren’t enough therapists to match the demand. Enter: the rise of digital talkspaces. While these spaces help to make therapy more affordable and accessible, are we missing out on the benefits of talking to someone in-person? In a world where almost everything else we do is online, what does the future of therapy look like?
HOST: Kate Spies, SVP+General Manager at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, Licensed Psychologist, Founder & CEO of Therapy for Black Girls
Dr. Amy Cirbus, Ph.D, LMHC, LPC, Director of Clinical Content at Talkspace

When it comes to seeking out fitness information online, there is certainly no shortage of content. It seems that everywhere you look, there are posts promising that “burning,” “toning,” and “shredding” any body part of choice is just a double tap away. While the goal of many ‘fit-fluencers’ is to get people moving, how do we separate what works vs. what sells? Oftentimes, it’s easy to be reeled in by swipe-ups and sweat sets in favor of certifications and qualifications. When it comes to seeking out the best fitness advice for our individual lifestyles and goals, where do we draw the line between expert and influencer?

After over a year of much of the workforce operating remotely, we are entering a period of time that many experts are calling “The Great Resignation.” According to The US Labor Department, nearly four million people have quit their jobs... some with back-up plans and others without. For many workers, the future is still uncertain: some companies have opted for permanent hybrid models while others continue to push back the return-to-office date month after month. Regardless of their profession, more and more workers are taking stock: Is it possible to finally kick burnout to the curb? Is a work-life balance actually achievable, or just aspirational? As the pandemic continues to shake things up at a rapid clip, it is time to re-evaluate how and why we work.

Last week on The Well+Good Podcast, we unpacked why speaking openly about our finances is very much the final taboo in our society and how important it is to undo the messaging we’ve received that we’re inherently bad with money. Needless to say, we have money on the mind. This week, we are continuing the conversation. How do we drop the excuses, shake off the stigma once and for all, and invest in ourselves and our futures to make financial wellness a reality?

These days, we speak very openly about topics that were once considered taboo: who we’re sleeping with, what our therapist said in our last session, but when it comes to money… oftentimes, our lips are sealed. In recent years, getting women invested in their financial futures has been on trend with countless female oriented campaigns and FinTech apps on the scene, but given that women couldn’t legally open a bank account until the 1970’s, the playing field is still far from even. It’s 2021, and many women are still being conditioned to feel shame around their spending, to outsource their finances, and told that if we “just stopped buying lattes” then we’d be just as financially competent as the men in our lives. It's time we take control and shift that narrative: How can we turn money from a source of stress to a source of strength?

No matter how far we think we’ve come in terms of acceptance for all body types, we can’t seem to escape workouts that promise “washboard abs in just 10 minutes flat” or friends and family members lamenting that they “just need to lose 5 pounds before vacation.” While we continue to amplify voices who are advocating for body positivity and sizing inclusivity, suffice to say, there's a lot more work to be done. After supporting us through a global pandemic, we should be thanking our bodies for all that they do to keep us alive and well–not stressing about how they look in shorts. How can we continue to bring awareness to how people with different bodies might exist in the world and move the “body conversation” forward?

By the numbers: 8 glasses of water, 8 hours of sleep, and of course, the notorious 10,000 steps are all ways we quantify what it means to live a long and healthy life. While it’s no secret that hydration, rest, and movement are all key players when it comes to improving our overall sense of well-being and boosting longevity, the prescription for living well is not a one-size-fits-all. When it comes to building healthier habits that last, which expert-backed numbers do we actually need to strive for? How do we use tracking devices to improve our lives without getting too hung up on the stats?

While millennials were already living at home in record numbers pre-pandemic, an unprecedented number of young people left their independent lives behind to move back into their childhood bedrooms in March of 2020. Many of these homecomings provided parents and children alike with a sense of safety and comfort, but–as always when it comes to family–there were new challenges to face: How do you slip back into the parent-child dynamic without regressing emotionally? Is there a way for both parents and children to re-establish boundaries? How do you know when it’s time to leave the nest again? Most importantly, with the cost of rent, homeownership, and childcare continuing to increase at an alarming rate, is it time to re-examine our definition of what it means to be an independent adult in 2021 and beyond?
HOST: Taylor Camille, Sr. Producer at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Kayleen Schaefer, Author
Melissa Divaris Thompson, LMFT
WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT:

During the height of the pandemic, we cared for our loved ones, for our sourdough starters in the fridge, and of course, for our plants. Being told to stay inside exposed the importance of feeling connected to the world around us, and to nature. Additionally, spending so much time at home increased our desire to curate a space for ourselves that felt nurturing and inviting. For many of us, the solution was simple: bring a piece of the outside in. Whether you’re brand-new to the plant game or have had a ‘green thumb’ your whole life, you know that the relationship between a plant parent and their plant is like no other. Do we take care of our plants or do our plants take care of us?

Whether it’s from family, friends, or medical professionals, every woman has heard some iteration of the dreaded phrase, “Well, you’re not getting any younger!” While we can all agree that it’s time to retire that phrase, the pressure to tick certain boxes in a certain order (and by a certain age) is universally felt. How do we juggle career ambitions, personal goals, and biological realities, all while feeling like we’re the ones calling the shots? Why are so many of us being told that we are running out of time?

Since the pandemic started, it seems like the ‘rules to live by’ have changed by the week… sometimes even by the day. In the earlier days, we had to decide whether or not we should join someone in the elevator, or who we should (or shouldn’t) allow into our “pod.” Then, came weighing the pros and cons of indoor vs. outdoor dining and asking ourselves, “how much really is six feet apart?” Now, we’re in uncharted territory as we navigate masks on vs. masks off and of course, vaccine politics. How do we (respectfully) balance the changing social landscape with our own comfort levels? What is the best way to bring up awkward conversation topics that didn’t even exist before 2020 and where are we headed next?
HOST: Ella Dove, Director, Creative Development at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Elaine Swann, Lifestyle and Etiquette Expert, Founder of The Swann School of Protocol
Lauren Guss, Executive Vice President of Business Leadership at Superfly

Like most habits, applying sunscreen (or not) is one that starts from a young age. You were either slathered with sunscreen every time you stepped out of the house, or believed that you didn't need it. Either way, for most children, the idea of putting on sunscreen is just as exciting as eating your vegetables. Today, we now know that protecting your skin from the sun should be a daily practice, and is just as pertinent to your overall health as washing your hands or wearing a seatbelt. This shift in the conversation surrounding sun protection can largely be attributed to innovators in the space who are making sun care products more inclusive and attractive–especially when it comes to communities of color. On this episode of The Well+Good Podcast, we are speaking to three of them, who have not only forged their own paths in skin care and sun safety, but who are also expanding the conversation and bridging the information gap that exists on the risks that come with not embracing sunscreen in our everyday routines. Now, consider this your reminder to re-apply.
HOST: Taylor Camille, Sr. Producer at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Shontay Lundy, Founder of Black Girl Sunscreen
Dr. Adeline Kikam, Dermatologist and Founder of Brown Skin Derm
Holly Thaggard, Founder of Supergoop!
WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT:

Dr. Kikam breaks down the technical side of why we all need to take sun protection seriously, and how we can use media and marketing to re-shape perceptions when it comes to making the suncare industry more inclusive. Find her here.
Holly walks us through the story behind Supergoop! and actionable steps we can take to stop the skin cancer epidemic. You can find her here, and Supergoop! here.

Summer is here: the sun is out and the predictions are in. After a long year and a half without touch, people are ready to take the masks off… and maybe more. Now that more people are vaccinated, many have forecasted that this summer will reach roaring twenties levels of horniness and promiscuity, but the definition of what makes a summer “hot” is different for everyone. On this episode of The Well+Good Podcast, we break down how you can find exactly what you’re looking for this summer, without losing yourself in the process.

When the distribution of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine was paused after six people experienced rare blood clots, many drew the parallel to birth control–a medication that can also cause blood clots. The double standard was glaring and left us asking, where is this sense of urgency and concern when it comes to women’s health? While it has always been the case, the events over this past year and a half have exposed the harsh reality that our medical system is not built to support or prioritize women or the non binary community. Thankfully, there are many trailblazers in the field who are fighting for a much-needed priority shift. On this episode of The Well+Good Podcast, we sit down with two of them: Dr. Jessica Shepherd and Dr. Shikha Jain, who break down the changes that need to happen both structurally and in our day-to-day lives in order to move women’s health to the forefront.
HOST: Kate Spies, SVP+ General Manager at Well+Good
GUESTS:

Back in the very early days of the pandemic, the story of Amanda Kloots and Nick Cordero captivated the nation. Amanda a fitness mogul and dancer met Nick, an actor and singer, back in 2014 during the development of a brand-new Broadway musical. When Nick was hospitalized with a severe case of Covid-19 back in March 2020, their world was flipped upside down. In the 95 days that Nick spent fighting for his life in the ICU, Amanda shared updates to her social media, rallying a rapidly growing community of supporters around her. She stayed infectiously positive as she urged her followers to sing and dance to Nick’s music, and ultimately created a movement around the hashtag #WakeUpNick. On July 5, 2020, Nick passed. In the year since his passing, Amanda, now a single mother to their son Elvis, has become a symbol of hope and resilience, finding strength in the face of the unthinkable. On this episode of The Well+Good podcast, Amanda and her sister Anna–who has been there through it all–discuss how when it comes to living life and navigating loss, there is no script.

The beginning of Pride Month 2021 is cause for celebration, but not without taking pause to acknowledge the alarming rise of anti-trans legislation across the country. According to the Human Rights Campaign, more than 100 bills have been introduced by 33 states across the US, all aiming to repress the rights of transgender people. On this episode of the Well+Good podcast, we are tuning in to hear the story of writer and mother MaryRose Denton, whose son came out to her as transgender when he was 17 years old. MaryRose explains the importance of providing unconditional love and support to any loved one who is struggling with their sexual identity.

Saying no always seems like a great idea in practice, but in reality, following through can be easier said than done. Pre and post-pandemic, our boundaries have been pushed like never before. From the destruction of our work-life balance to the current obligation we all feel to say yes to everything as the world opens up, we could all benefit from some borders in our lives. Luckily, it’s never too late to set a new standard for yourself. 2021 is the year of the boundary: it’s time to create new lifestyle habits that last, and put yourself first.

Whether we like it or not, most of our face-to-face encounters over the past year and a half have been with our own faces. Let’s admit it, most of the time when we’re on a Zoom or FaceTime call, we’re checking out ourselves and wondering if there’s any way to get better lighting… Even though we spent most of the year au naturel, gearing up to reveal the bottom half of our faces to the world again has dramatically increased the demand for Botox, Invisalign, and other ways to click “touch up my appearance” IRL. So what gives? How do we find the middle ground between accepting ourselves as we are, but also wanting to feel confident as we re-emerge after a year of isolation? As we slowly make our way out of the pandemic, it is time to ‘unmask’ our longest-held beliefs about beauty and skincare, and hopefully, nail down a routine that has us feeling our best–inside and out.

For many, a good night's sleep can be extremely hard to come by. And with a rise in inconsistent schedules, chronic stress, uncertainty and screens seemingly at our every turn, our brains and bodies have been in overdrive and our collective sleep has been affected so much we’ve even coined new terms like, revenge bedtime procrastination and Coronasomnia. As many of us know, taking small steps to improve our sleep hygiene is important. Not just for disease prevention but for overall health, mental health and wellness but finding the energy to take the first step when you feel so incredibly fatigued can be extremely overwhelming so how do we get back to a sound sleep?

Things are rapidly changing and the mental place where we are today is different from where we were a year ago, or 3months ago, or yesterday. We keep coming back to the advice given during one of our Well+Good Talks. We talk about the dangers of toxic positivity, tips on how to hold space for our emotions, and finding ways for us to cope. All topics that are maybe even more salient now as we think about reentering this “new normal” version of our lives.

Allow us to re-introduce ourselves. Now that it’s been 7 weeks since we launched the Well+Good podcast, we thought we’d tell you a little bit more about who we are, how we got here, and what drew us into the wellness industry in the first place. We hope that you’ll join us every week for new episodes, so let’s get on a first-name basis, we’re your hosts, Taylor, Ella, and Kate.
Also in this episode, we share some behind-the-scenes audio from our conversation with Elizabeth Kott and Stephanie Simbari. During our chat, they hilariously share their first word association for all 12 astrological signs. Ours were… accurate, maybe yours will be too.
From time to time, we’ll be back with an episode just like this one, a tune up on the conversations that really stuck with us, or the hysterical tangents that just didn’t make it into the final cut. Like what you hear or aggressively disagree with your sign’s telltale word? Shoot us an email at podcasts@wellandgood.com.

Prior to 2020, we’ve been shown one very specific version of self care centered around commodities for our comfort and happiness. In 2021, we’re redefining self care, and after a year that forced us to keep our distance from each other, we’re finding new ways to connect and comfort one another—and discovering that these new communities soothe us too. In this episode, we discuss how to get the most out of this new gen community care and expand our understanding of what it means to heal with the help of both commodities and community.
HOST: Samantha Leal, Managing Editor at Well+Good

Lauren Ash, founder Black Girl in Om, teacher

To put it simply, our friendships are being tested. The relationships that were once so easy to start, nurture and maintain are being challenged by physical separation and digital fatigue. Considering how important these relationships are for fighting loneliness and contributing to longevity, many of us are grappling with how to preserve these relationships, and build new ones, during this very weird time.

Danielle Bayard Jackson, Friendship coach, educator and author

The amount of morality that’s attached to our diets and eating habits is unreal. Some foods are labelled good, while others are bad. The clean food movement implies that some foods are dirty. And we’ve been told that the way we eat has a huge impact on everything from not just our physical health, but our mental health, our long-term health prospect, and even our immunity. Layer on top of that the prevalence and popularity of highly restrictive diets like Keto, F Factor and Paleo, and it’s actually no wonder that so many people are caught up about food and how we should be eating. How did something that’s supposed to be enjoyable get so confusing, hard and strained?
HOST: Kate Spies, SVP+ General Manager at Well+Good

Christy Harrison, MPH RD CEDRD, author and host of Food Psych Podcast

Today we're tuning in to answer the question 'Why do we move?' The pandemic dramatically changed how (and why) we workout. Boutique fitness classes were replaced with apps, we emptied store shelves of home workout equipment, and began logging an impressive amount of miles on our evening strolls in pursuit of 'movement'. Will the routines we've adapted in quarantine stick? Are they good enough? In this episode we sat down with Charlee Atkins, Evelynn Escobar, Jess Sims, and Dr. Harry Pino to get real about what fitness habits we can ditch and which we should hold on to.
