In this episode of Own Your Piece, I sit down with Kim Srisark, founder of Eleve Era Wellness, to talk about Ayurveda (Ayurvedic medicine), aka one of the oldest medical systems in the world (5,000+ years of “your body is not a one-size-fits-all science”).

Kim shares her powerful personal transformation, how a sudden, brutal divorce cracked her world open, and how Ayurveda became the tool that helped her rebuild her health, calm her nervous system, and fully come back to herself.

We get into the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha), how your unique makeup impacts everything from digestion to anxiety to motivation, and why food + routine + rest are the real main characters of long-term wellness.

Takeaways

• Ayurveda is the “science of life” and focuses on preventing disease by keeping the body in balance.
• The doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) reflect your body’s unique combination of the five elements: space, air, fire, water, earth.
• Your body is bio-individual, what works for someone else may not work for you (and you’re not broken if it doesn’t).
• Food is foundational: what you eat, how you eat, and when you eat impacts balance, digestion, inflammation, mood, and energy.
• Pitta (fire + water) can look like ambition + intensity; imbalance can show up as inflammation, reflux, irritability, or burnout.
• Vata (space + air) can look like movement + creativity; imbalance can show up as anxiety, scattered energy, or overstimulation.
• Kapha (earth + water) can look like grounded + steady; imbalance can show up as stagnation, low motivation, heaviness, depression.
• Ayurveda can work alongside modern medicine; it’s not either/or; it’s integration and support.
• Sometimes, the most productive thing you can do is rest and not the doom-scroll kind. The “sit and exist” kind.
• Your wellness path gets way easier when you stop chasing trends and start asking: “What does my body need today?”

Hi friends, today’s episode is such a full-circle moment for me.

I’m sitting down with a blast from my past, Melissa Watts. We became fast friends back when I lived in Las Vegas (yes, that really happened 😅), and even though life pulled us in different directions, we’ve somehow kept circling the same energetic “rooms” over the years.

Melissa is the founder of Lash Bar (and so much more than what you might assume from “beauty industry” on paper). This conversation surprised me in the best ways. It’s honest, deep, funny, tender, and it hits on something I know so many of us are navigating right now:

How do we come back to ourselves… without shame, without performance, and without needing our life to look a certain way to be valid?

In This Episode, We Talk About:

• Why life doesn’t have to follow the “prescribed path” (especially in places where it feels like everyone’s timeline looks the same)
• Melissa’s inside-out practice for self-love: noticing what you’re reaching for externally, and learning how to meet that need internally
• How environment impacts self-perception (and why some spaces feel more “free” in your body than others)
• Nervous system regulation, emotional pendulums, and the power of actually sitting with what’s real
• Beauty standards, self-worth, and the difference between “enhancing for fun” vs. “performing for approval.”
• Plant medicine, intuition, and why sacred work requires grounded facilitation (not random “concert mushrooms,” please 😅)
• Giving yourself permission to be bad at something, and still keep going
• The magic of trusting the pull, even when it doesn’t make logical sense
• The freedom that comes when you stop trying to be who you were told you are

My Favorite Takeaways

• Focus on what nourishes you.
• Self-love can be cultivated from within; it doesn’t have to be earned externally.
• Vulnerability is strength, not weakness.
• Everything is energy, including the way you speak to yourself.
• Your intuition is louder than anyone else’s opinion… if you get quiet enough to hear it.
• It’s okay to pivot. It’s okay to change your mind. It’s okay to become someone new.
• You don’t need an hour a day to come back to yourself; even one minute counts.

As you listen, I want you to ask yourself one question (no pressure, no perfection):
Where am I still performing… instead of being?

And if you’re in a season where you can’t “do a lot,” start small.
One minute. One breath. One moment of coming home to yourself.

Because the clearest voice in your life should be yours.

In this week's episode of Own Your Piece, I’m joined by Crystal Kelly and Tiff Grubaugh to share the heart behind their partnership, Strength & Soul, a beautiful blend of physical and spiritual wellness.

Crystal opens up about her self-discovery journey: moving out of a restrictive religious framework, reconnecting with her intuition, and fully owning her gifts through practices like yoga, meditation, astrology, and the Akashic Records. Tiff shares her background as a lifelong athlete and personal trainer, and how her work has evolved from appearance-based fitness to a more holistic approach that honors the body, nervous system, and energy.

Together, we talk about what it really means to come home to yourself, trusting your inner knowing, building a relationship with your body, and using retreats and community as a powerful container for healing, growth, and integration.

Takeaways

• Trusting yourself is essential for personal growth.
• Your body is a vehicle for your soul’s journey.
• Pain can be a powerful teacher in self-discovery.
• Holistic wellness includes mind, body, and spirit.
• Community support amplifies transformation and integration.
• Intuition is a natural gift, and it’s meant to be practiced and trusted.
• Fitness is most healing when it’s about feeling good, not just appearance.
• Yoga and meditation can open deep emotional healing and self-remembering.
• Everyone’s self-discovery path is unique, and it unfolds in perfect timing.
• Creating safe space for others is a real form of medicine.
