Not all workouts are created equal — and the one that makes your friend feel amazing might leave you inflamed, exhausted, or burned out.

In this episode, we break down the most popular workout styles and decode what’s actually happening inside your body when you do them. From heavy lifting to walking, running, HIIT, yoga, CrossFit, and more — we explore the science, the benefits, and the downsides of each so you can make smarter choices for your body.

We talk genetics, hormones, inflammation, recovery, and why your “perfect” workout might look very different from someone else’s. This episode is all about learning how to move in a way that supports your health, your goals, and the body God uniquely designed for you.

If you’re starting a new routine — or rethinking the one you’re already doing — this episode will help you train with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

What if depression isn’t what we’ve been told it is?

In this episode, we unpack one of the biggest bombshells in modern mental health — the idea that depression may not be a simple chemical imbalance in the brain at all. Inspired by A Mind of Your Own by Dr. Kelly Brogan, we take a deep dive into the science that challenges the conventional narrative and asks us to look at depression as a whole-body experience, not just a brain disorder.

We talk about how inflammation, hormones, gut health, nutrient deficiencies, thyroid function, trauma, stress, and lifestyle can all play powerful roles in mood — and why treating symptoms without addressing root causes may leave people feeling stuck.

This episode isn’t about blaming, shaming, or dismissing anyone’s experience. It’s about opening the door to a much bigger conversation — one that offers understanding, agency, and hope.

If you’ve ever felt like the standard explanation didn’t fully make sense… this episode might completely change the way you think about depression.

What if light — literal light — could help your body heal faster, move better, think clearer, and recover stronger?

In this episode, we’re diving into red light therapy 🔴 — what it is, why it works, and why it’s becoming one of the most talked-about tools in recovery, wellness, and longevity. This isn’t woo-woo… it’s cellular science.

We break down:
• What red and near-infrared light actually do inside your cells
• How light impacts mitochondria (your energy factories)
• Why red light supports muscle recovery, joint health, skin, and inflammation
• How it can help with hormones, sleep, and nervous system regulation
• Why humans were designed to interact with light
• How to use red light safely and effectively (without overdoing it)

We’ll also talk about how modern life pulled us away from natural light — and how red light therapy may help restore something we’re missing.

Ancient wisdom meets modern science in this episode — and once you understand how light communicates with your body, you’ll never look at recovery the same way again.

Turn on the light… and let’s get into it ✨
