Ep. #55
On this episode, we have the pleasure of hosting Mark and Carrie Sisson, powerhouses in the wellness industry. Together, they reveal their individual journeys into health and fitness, which has now spanned over two decades. The discussion moves into the realm of diets, from keto to paleo, and even touching on the often controversial topic of veganism. The Sissons share their personal experiences and views on these diets, highlighting the importance of sustainability and individuality when it comes to dietary choices. But we don't just stop at diets and workouts, we also venture into the sphere of endurance training, the benefits of quality wines, and foot health.
Lastly, we delve into the world of entrepreneurship, with a particular focus on the Sisson's latest venture, Peluva - a shoe company revolutionizing footwear for health and comfort. The Sissons explain how conventional shoes may not be the best choice for foot health and how they're seeking to change this with Peluva. We also explore the interconnectedness of various industries, such as food and medicine, and the common trend of addressing symptoms rather than root causes. From health and fitness to relationships and entrepreneurship, this episode covers a lot of ground.

Joining me this week is my guardian angel, Emily Morrow, an Integrative Health Practitioner and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. Emily saved me from a life of acne and hormonal imbalances and now she's here to share her wisdom, insights, and candid tales of her own health battles.

Imagine stepping into the shoes of someone who has faced life's darkest corners, battled addiction, confronted trauma and emerged on the other side, not just surviving, but shining with spiritual wisdom. Welcome to our space, and today, we have the privilege of having Gabby Bernstein (to speak about her book Happy Days), a spiritual teacher and author who embodies resilience and transformation, sharing her life's journey with us. She unveils her battle with addiction, her path to sobriety, and a traumatic childhood event that laid concealed for years, providing insight into how extreme behaviors, good or bad, can serve as shields protecting us from our internal struggles.
Have you ever pondered how our past traumas, feelings of shame and relationship styles can affect our physical health? Together with Gabby, we delve into this fascinating territory, examining how these elements can manifest into physical issues, from digestive problems to brain fog. Gabby's insights reveal that our biologically designed shame responses, which are meant to tether us to safety, can lead to debilitating issues when suppressed. Moreover, we shed light on the enduring physical impact of trauma and stress the importance of embarking on the healing journey in a safe and timely manner.

One of my guests canceled in New York City, so we decided to bring Fi on for a spontaneous Q&A Funcast! For those of you who are new and not familiar with Fiona Attix, she is not only my executive assistant but also my best friend and sister. We have many life updates to share with you. We discuss our considerations of transitioning from Los Angeles to a more family-friendly city and explore practical ways to save on daily essentials. The conversation delves into our experiences, shifting from a boss-employee relationship to a balanced friendship.

Battling acne for a decade has been a formidable journey, filled with numerous treatments that for the most part did not work. This episode reveals my personal, decade-long battle against this skin condition and the myriad of treatments I've undergone. But it wasn’t until I took a deep dive into my lab work with a blood chemist that I began to see real progress. My face is finally clear, my lab results have improved, and my hormones are in the process of rebalancing, and I'm ready to share this battle and victory with you.
The fight didn't end with traditional treatments, though. We also delve into the role of diet, herbal supplements, and lifestyle changes in the healing process. From the oils I cook with to the cosmetics I use, I share the comprehensive changes I made in my life. I also detail my skincare routine, including acne-safe products and treatments, and lifestyle adjustments that have helped me regain control over my skin health. Whether you're waging your own war with acne or are simply interested in maintaining skin health, this episode teems with practical insights and actionable tips.

Have you ever considered the invisible dangers that could be lurking in your everyday products? In a riveting discussion with our guest, Darin Olien (Author of Fatal Conveniences), we uncover the pitfalls of what he terms 'fatal conveniences' and how they can negatively impact our health. Drawing from his father's experience with multiple chemical sensitivity, Darren emphasizes the potential harm of the approximately 60,000 largely untested chemicals present in products we use daily. Whether it's your deodorant, clothing, furniture, sunscreen, or even the air you breathe, every personal choice can be a stepping stone towards better health and wellness.
Darin guides us through the contrasts between regulations in the US and EU, shedding light on how products are often pushed to market stateside without sufficient safety tests. He encourages us to take action, support companies that prioritize health, and become informed consumers. We also delve into the serious health implications tied to our exposure to these chemicals, and how small and simple changes, like switching to natural skincare or growing our own food, can contribute to a healthier lifestyle. Don’t forget to check out Darin’s new book Fatal Conveniences.

Today on the show, we are having our first ever Mini Motivational Solo Episode. I am really excited about this new segment of the show where we can really dive deep on topics I think will help so many of you thrive and live your dream life. On the first episode of this series, I open up about the fear that once dominated my life. Through personal stories of running from problems and avoiding my true potential, I take you on a journey that ultimately leads to the realization of the importance of facing your issues head-on. I explore the depths of my lowest point—hitting rock bottom. And while it may seem dark and desolate, I show you how it is in these abyssal depths that I found a fertile ground for rebuilding and transformation. I share how taking charge of my life, focusing on what I could control, and making small yet significant changes propelled me towards becoming the person I aspired to be.

Meet Kathryn and Kendra, better known as the KK Fit Twins. From cardio bunnies to heavy lifters, their journey is nothing short of inspiring. This episode explores their transition from a hardcore bodybuilding lifestyle to a more holistic, wellness-focused approach. We trace their steps from wanting to look the part, to cultivating a genuine passion for health and wellness.
We take a leap into the deep end discussing mental health, a topic often neglected within the fitness industry, especially for public figures. Can you imagine the pressure of maintaining a certain body type while grappling with an internal identity crisis? Kathryn and Kendra open up about how they dealt with these challenges, applauding each other’s willingness to evolve and be vulnerable.
Finally, the KK Fit Twins share their personal struggles, the unique pressures of twin fitness, and how their upbringing influenced their previous extreme bodybuilding approach. We also examine how their view on health and fitness has evolved, the obstacles faced, and the powerful lessons learned. Let's delve into the enlightening conversation that marks a significant shift from the traditional fitness narrative to a more wholesome perspective.

Today we have an incredible guest, Tobi Pearce - tech founder & ex-CEO of SWEAT, investor, and now an advisor to other founders. Tobi’s inspiring journey from homelessness to finding success through fitness and ultimately a $400 million dollar record-breaking sale of the massive SWEAT app - all before his 29th birthday - is full of inspiration and wisdom beyond his years. He also happens to be the partner of one of my dear friends, Rachel Dillon, so check out her episode below. On this episode, we talk about hitting rock bottom and finding purpose through pain, if business and passion really need to align, why timing is everything, why the best leaders have the experience in the game to make better decisions, learning from failures, how Tobi saw an opportunity in the female fitness market, values and qualities in relationships that change after finding success (yes, he was a multi-millionaire sleeping on an air mattress), becoming a parent, dealing with self-judgment and criticism, why achieving your goals actually makes things harder, sitting in stillness and learning to be alone with your thoughts, why being unrelatable makes your circle tighter, and more. There were so many parallels in my own journey through business, fitness, and learning about changing relationships along the way. Regardless of where you are in your journey or career, whether you are an entrepreneur, work for a business, or are simply trying to find your future purpose, this episode is for you.
We hope to see you on Sunday 10/8 for our POW x Bloom community walk, listen to the episode for more details!

Today’s guest is Doug Bopst, award winning personal trainer, author, speaker, and podcast host. Doug has an incredible transformation story from a former incarcerated drug addict to where he is today and says he is lucky to have survived his 25th birthday. Through perseverance and a complete mindset shift, Doug turned his pain into purpose to become a successful, multifaceted individual. In this episode, we discuss childhood trauma, how his choices that lead him down a dark path were driven by a need for acceptance, addiction to the validation of being wanted or needed, why drugs created a false sense of confidence at his most insecure point in life, coping with anxiety and depression, understanding that no one is coming to save you, finding the strength to push past rock bottom and the pivotal moment that turned his life around, fitness as medicine for physical and mental health, tips for staying disciplined and becoming your own biggest advocate, doing the work and saving your own life. I was so inspired after talking to Doug and I think conversations like these are so important to have, whether it's my own rock bottom story or someone else's. Even though all of our stories are different, I hope to anyone listening who may be struggling that this shows that there's a light at the end of the tunnel and you CAN find the strength to push yourself past your adversity.

On today’s episode, we are joined by Pasturebird Farm’s founder & farmer,Paul Greive. Paul transitioned from city life as a corporate accountant without a background in agriculture when an illness required him to change the course of his life. After serving in the Marine Corps and contracting Lyme disease during sniper school, Paul began to look more closely at what he was putting into his body to focus on healing, but wasn’t able to find pasture-raised chicken that fit his Paleo needs. His family ordered 50 chicks as part of an experimental hobby when they first moved to Temecula, and now Pasturebird is the largest pastured poultry farm in the world and official supplier of chicken to the LA Clippers and Dodgers. On this episode, we get into the problems with our food system, why pasture raised chicken is important, industry myths, sustainability, how to read labels at grocery stores, regenerative vs. factory farming and what this means for both plants and animals, glyphosate and its long lasting impact, the importance of buying directly from farmers, hidden truths about farmers markets, soil health and the environment, ancient wisdom from indigenous practices, and getting back to our roots by finding the joys of nature at any age. Paul was kind enough to share a discount code exclusively for the POW community so be sure to check out their website below and listen to the full episode if, like me, you’re inspired to get your own chickens and want to know where to start!

On today’s episode, I’m chatting with Paige Lindgren, a Certified Hormone Specialist and Pilates Instructor who is passionate about helping women feel their best and find balance, hormone health optimization, and healthy lifestyle choices. Paige also co-founded From Force to Flow, a cycle syncing platform that's full of hormone knowledge and tips for each phase of the menstrual cycle. Together we discuss the different phases of the menstrual cycle & optimization for each one, hormone imbalances and conditions (PCOS, Hashimotos, etc.) and how to test for them/manage symptoms, the impact that cortisol has on feeling safe in our bodies, why getting more protein is so important, long-term effects of blue light exposure, social media & screentime breaks, healthy sleep patterns, the difference between a healthy and dysfunctional thyroid, why over-exercising can cause more harm than good, managing environmental stress, natural vs. hormonal birth control options, exposure to elevated amounts of BPAs and microplastics, honoring cravings during menstruation, and so much more! I love how Paige presents these findings in a way that's both approachable and easy to understand, while creating a safe space for women with shared experiences to discuss their journeys.

Ep. #35
Today’s guest is naturopathic doctor Dr. Saman Faramarzi. Dr. Sam is someone who has guided me physically and spiritually through a lot of my acne journey and completed her naturopathic medical training at Bastyr University. Dr. Sam studied cutting-edge research on mindfulness at the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine at Harvard Medical School. She incorporates her knowledge into private practice and witnesses profound changes in patients just after a few visits. I thought this episode would be an awesome opportunity for my POW audience to have an “appointment” with a naturopath as I recognize that these tests may not be readily available or accessible to everyone - as always take what works and leave what doesn’t and I hope you learn something new along the way. On this episode, we get into the seven different tests we ran on me and my results, how health relates to trauma and mental/emotional health, stress roadblocks and clearing pathways to live optimally, principles of Chinese medicine, the importance of healthy gut and liver function as well as microbiome diversity, hormone health and thyroid issues, why food sensitivity is controversial, environmental toxins and how to properly detox, parasites, and simple tips and hacks that can make a huge difference to your health and overall happiness long term. I also address some recent feedback as well as give updates to the protein bar formulation before we get into the episode, so make sure to listen - this ep is full of valuable insights and I can’t wait for you to hear it!

On this week’s episode, I’m thrilled to have my good friend Alyssa Lynch join me on the show. Alyssa is a former actress turned wellness enthusiast with a focus around health, mindfulness, and spiritual practices. Alyssa and I actually first recorded back in November, but so much has happened in her life that I wanted to have her back on to address this pivotal transitional moment, and we get into all the juicy details - many of which she’s addressing publicly for the first time. We talk her breakup and the aftermath, her healing process, learning you can’t fix someone, hormone health/gaining healthy weight, masculine vs. feminine era, living a bright and fun life, *those* spicy rumors, what she’ll look for in a future partner, if her DMs are really open to the ladies, and so much more. Loved this girlfriend chat and welcoming Alyssa into her new feminine era - will definitely be having her on for more!

Today on the show we have an amazing guest, Thomas Delauer. Thomas is an American author, health expert, YouTube star, and performance coach best known for his work on personal health transformation. Like me, Thomas went through a radical transformation and lost 110 pounds, but learned just as much about his own mental health alongside his physical journey to overcome unhealthy habits and thought patterns. Today, he helps clients around the world transform their lifestyles and I was inspired by our motivational conversation. In this episode, we discuss eating disorder development in kids, body dysmorphia and mental health, OCD & obsessive thinking as an adult, when exercise can become self-harm, shame around food, Thomas’s rock-bottom story, intermittent fasting for women and men, keto diet, misconceptions about food and fitness, prioritizing muscle gain while being diet conscious, potential effects of gluten and dairy on autoimmune conditions, and so much more.

Today we’re talking all about my brain scan with Doc Amen, how to deal with “automatic negative thoughts” and dissociation, embracing more of my spiritual side, prioritizing fun, struggles with acne and updates on my progress, moving from my masculine to my feminine era, body image with pregnancy, forgiving yourself for your past, new puppy updates, and so many more great audience questions at the end.

Today on the show I had an incredible conversation with Paul Saladino MD, one of the leading experts and authorities on the science and application of the animal-based diet. We covered so many valuable topics, specifically for women, that we plan to release the interview in two parts. Dr. Saladino is board certified as a physician nutrition specialist and completed residency at the University of Washington. He attended medical school at the University of Arizona where he focused on integrative medicine and nutritional biochemistry. He has used these diets to reverse autoimmune issues, chronic inflammation and mental health issues in hundreds of patients, many of whom had been told their conditions were untreatable. In this episode, we discuss the importance of food quality, what western medicine doesn’t teach us about nutrition, the connection to plants and autoimmune issues, healing skin issues, benefits of creatine and animal protein, ethical farming, the problem with oats and coffee, SIBO and the gut, why raw dairy, and much more. This conversation can serve as educational regardless of your diet preferences and discusses how anyone can have access to making better consumption choices. Stay tuned for part 2 next week!

Today on the show we have Candace Marino, aka The LA Facialist, who has been a medical esthetician for over a decade, developing custom complexion protocols and unique techniques for a highly–discerning celebrity clientele. Candace has such a direct, “no-bs” approach to skincare and I love hearing her honest and real takes on what works and what doesn’t, the impact of skin issues on overall health, as well as how to overcome individualized skin problems. On this episode, we discuss the connection to skin and inner wellness, the minimal daily must-have routine you need, products that are too harsh, how to heal acne scars, what the skin barrier does, the benefits (or not) of things like: zit stickers, red & blue light, Botox & fillers, Accutane & Spironolactone, AviClear, Sculptra, and more.
There are so many specific tips and takeaways here for anyone at any point in their skin journey to benefit from, I hope you enjoy Candace’s tips and she was kind enough to provide a discount code sitewide for my listeners below!

Today on the show we are joined by my friend Neeloo Fathi, who has an incredibly inspiring story of survival and perseverance after suffering a horrific accident in 2017 that forever altered the course of her life. After months of physical and mental challenges during her healing journey, Neeloo emerged from the experience with a new perspective on what values she prioritized to create a life worth living when tomorrow isn’t guaranteed. On this episode, we discuss the physical and mental impacts of her accident, overcoming trauma, changing her relationship with alcohol, embracing her immigrant roots, microdosing & anxiety, her Ayuahsca experience, the joys of solo travel and tips for women who want to travel alone, and so much more.

Today we’re talking about MY FITNESS STORY. If you didn’t know, I lost 90 lbs in 2017. I’ve already done an episode on the emotional/mental transformation story, which was essentially the entire reason I got into fitness. But I haven’t done a breakdown of the actual changes I made, tools I used, workouts I did, food I ate, etc. In this episode I break down my fitness tips in eight chapters (chapters and titles are in the show notes!) I hope you enjoy! This episode is sponsored by Nike.
Chapter one: Find your why (4:13 min)
Chapter two: Baby steps (8:50 min)
Chapter three: Environment (12:15 min)
Chapter four: Food (14:48 min)
Chapter five: Fitness VS health (24:13 min)
Chapter six: Exercise (27:32 min)
Chapter seven: Supplements (35:14 min)
Chapter eight: Make it easy (38:28 min)
Chapter nine: Clap for yourself (41:11 min)
