The Journey Home: Finding Peace Within with Udo Erasmus SUMMER REBOOT - Episode 279

7/7/2025
Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode! Udo Erasmus has been called the "father of fats", as he was educating on it long before the keto diet came about. He is the founder of Udo’s Choice award-winning supplements and is the author of the book Fats That Heal Fats that Kill, which has sold over 250,000 copies. Discover a paradigm-shifting approach to wellness that goes beyond diets and exercise routines with renowned nutrition expert and philosopher Udo Erasmus. Drawing from his extraordinary life journey—from war refugee to biochemist to wellness pioneer—Erasmus shares profound insights into what truly constitutes optimal health. At the heart of this transformative conversation lies a simple yet revolutionary idea: the root cause of our discontent isn't external circumstances but our disconnection from our inner essence. Erasmus explains how our natural process of focusing outward to understand the world leads us to lose touch with the perfect peace and unconditional love that forms our core nature. This disconnection creates what he calls "heartache"—not caused by trauma, but by forgetting our way home to ourselves. With remarkable clarity, Erasmus guides us through his eight-step process for complete wellness, addressing everything from internal awareness to physical health to our relationship with nature. He describes life itself as solar energy—sunlight stored in molecular bonds, released in our cells as the unconditional love that powers every function in our bodies. When we reconnect with this energy, we naturally feel fulfilled and shift from self-centered striving to service-oriented living. Most powerfully, Erasmus offers practical guidance for bringing our focus back inside through simple stillness practices. He challenges the notion that more doing is the answer to our problems, suggesting instead that deliberate time for being—connecting with our inner essence—transforms every aspect of our lives, from health choices to relationships to our impact on the environment. Whether you're seeking better physical health, emotional balance, or deeper meaning, this conversation offers a roadmap to wellness that begins not with changing what's outside, but with remembering what's already within.

Beyond Libido: Reclaiming Your Sexual Power in Midlife with Susan Bratton SUMMER REBOOT - Episode 278

Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode! Important Links: Find all of what was discussed (start here): https://betterlover.com/ More about Susan Bratton: https://susanbratton.com/ Mentioned in this episode (these products are beyond incredible & I've tried some of them use code Susan20 for a discount): https://www.foriawellness.com/ Join my Substack, where you'll get a glimpse of my upcoming book: https://substack.com/@sandyknutrition/posts What if everything you've been told about sex after menopause is wrong? In this eye-opening conversation with intimacy expert Susan Bratton, we dive deep into the biology of female arousal that most women have never learned—revealing why so many struggle with pleasure and desire in midlife. Susan shares the revolutionary concept of the "lady boner"—explaining that women possess just as much erectile tissue as men, but it's distributed differently and requires far more time to become fully engorged. This biological reality means many women have spent decades having sex without being fully aroused, leading to diminished sensation and eventual atrophy of these tissues. The solution isn't just more foreplay—it's understanding that what we call "foreplay" is actually sex itself, and that female arousal patterns have been ignored in favor of male-centered definitions of intimacy. The conversation explores Susan's comprehensive approach to "sexual biohacking" for ageless vitality, including nitric oxide boosting through diet and supplements, bioidentical hormone therapy, acoustic wave treatments that regenerate genital tissue, and techniques for maintaining muscle mass. For men, we discuss the overlooked issue of penile atrophy and how tools like vacuum erection devices can reverse deterioration without jumping straight to medications. Throughout, Susan offers practical communication strategies for introducing these concepts to partners, emphasizing that sexual wellness isn't just about pleasure—it's connected to longevity, cognitive function, and overall wellbeing. Whether you're currently experiencing changes in your intimate life or want to prevent future issues, this conversation offers a roadmap to sexual vitality that honors the actual biology of our bodies rather than cultural scripts about aging.

Kristine Carlson, New York Times bestselling co-author of the "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff" series, found herself facing this question when her husband Dr. Richard Carlson died unexpectedly at just 45 years old. In this deeply moving conversation, Kristine shares her remarkable journey from devastating grief to renewed purpose. With raw honesty, she reveals how she navigated raising teenage daughters alone while processing her own heartbreak, and the surprising spiritual connections that sustained her through the darkest days. "I had this conversation with myself where I could see myself doing this grief thing two ways," Kristine explains. "I chose to embrace what is, knowing I would have the inner guidance to teach me how to go through each day." Kristine's story isn't about quick fixes or toxic positivity. She acknowledges the profound pain of loss while illuminating how tragedy can become the doorway to a more authentic life. Most powerfully, she challenges the myth that grief must last forever, offering a liberating perspective on giving ourselves permission to experience joy again after loss. "Missing them and being in grief are two very different things," she shares. "You get used to missing them, but holding yourself to living a life of grief versus choosing light, love and joy - that becomes a choice." For anyone facing life's inevitable heartbreaks - whether from death, illness, or profound disappointment - Kristine offers practical wisdom on present moment awareness, gratitude practice, and following what she calls "breadcrumbs of joy." Her story demonstrates how we can transform our deepest wounds into our greatest gifts, emerging not diminished but expanded by our pain.

In this illuminating conversation with Jenn Kautsch, founder of Sober Sis, we explore the complex relationship between women, alcohol, and aging without judgment or rigid rules. Jenn shares her personal journey from "gray area" drinking to creating a vibrant alcohol-free lifestyle, offering powerful insights particularly relevant to women navigating their 40s, 50s, and beyond. We dive into surprising scientific facts about how alcohol affects women's bodies differently—especially as we age—and why the marketing of "mommy wine culture" has so effectively targeted women seeking relief from life's pressures. This isn't about labeling yourself or subscribing to someone else's definition of recovery. It's about honest curiosity and reclaiming your power in midlife. You'll discover why willpower isn't the answer (and what actually works instead), how to navigate social situations confidently, and why the question isn't "is my drinking bad enough to change?" but rather "is it good enough for the life I want?" Whether you're sober curious, looking to cut back, or simply interested in understanding the science behind alcohol's effects, this conversation offers compassionate wisdom and practical strategies for creating more mindful choices. The freedom waiting on the other side might just be the gateway to your most purposeful chapter yet.

The Hidden Hunger: Understanding Emotional Eating in Midlife and Beyond with Tricia Nelson - Episode 275

That's the reality for countless people struggling with emotional eating – a challenge that expert Tricia Nelson knows intimately. In this deeply personal conversation, Tricia shares her powerful journey of losing 50 pounds by healing the root causes of her emotional eating. She offers a refreshingly honest definition that cuts through the confusion: emotional eating is simply "eating to change how you feel." This insight immediately shifts our understanding away from willpower and toward emotional awareness. Tricia reveals why carbohydrates and sugary foods become such powerful comfort tools – they provide a quick serotonin hit that temporarily calms our anxiety. But as she explains, this strategy ultimately backfires, especially as we age and our bodies change. For midlife women experiencing hormonal shifts and accumulated life stressors, emotional eating often intensifies, creating a frustrating cycle that diets alone cannot fix. The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Tricia challenges popular approaches like intermittent fasting, which she's found can actually worsen emotional eating patterns. Instead, she advocates for what she calls "three meal magic" – a structured approach that allows true hunger signals to emerge and emotions to be recognized rather than numbed with food. "Overeaters are overdoers," Tricia explains, pinpointing how busyness serves as another numbing strategy alongside food. Her practical guidance on slowing down, creating community, and finding true nourishment beyond food offers a roadmap for anyone tired of the endless diet-binge cycle.

Tara has spent nearly 20 years bridging the gap between neuroscience and education. An experienced educator, consultant, and speaker, Tara collaborates with educators and advocates worldwide. She can demystify common misconceptions in learning and discuss how neuroplasticity has the potential to reshape education as we know it. The ability of our brains to change and adapt throughout life offers powerful opportunities for maintaining cognitive health as we age. Neuroeducation expert Tara Bonner discusses how neuroplasticity works, explaining that our brains are constantly changing in response to experiences, habits, and mental challenges. • As we age, our brains naturally experience decreased processing speed, memory challenges, and reduced cognitive flexibility • Repeated exposure and focused practice of any activity will change brain connectivity – for better or worse • Stress, trauma, and addiction can negatively rewire the brain, while novel experiences create positive neural pathways • Critical thinking abilities may be weakening due to convenience culture and passive information consumption • Social engagement, especially intergenerational connections, provides essential brain stimulation • Physical activity, proper nutrition, quality sleep, and stress management all contribute to brain health • Seeking novelty and embracing challenges keeps the brain actively creating new neural connections • The brain thrives on "effortful processing" – activities that are slightly challenging rather than automatic • Cognitive programming can target specific brain functions like critical thinking and processing speed Learn more about cognitive programming and brain fitness resources at ArrowsmithCA.

We dive deep into the concept of being co-creators of our reality through thoughts, emotions, and energy while examining the limitations of traditional medicine's fragmented approach to health. We get into the truth about manifestation—what it is, how it actually works (beyond the Instagram fluff), and why your subconscious mind may be shaping your reality more than your conscious choices. • Cathleen shares her journey from Georgetown University-trained nurse to holistic wellness advocate after experiencing healthcare's disconnection from emotional and spiritual aspects • The "Creator Matrix" concept explains how we create our reality through thoughts, emotions and belief systems even when we're unaware • Our cells communicate through glycans (sugar structures) that act as antennas, maintaining our "online" status for optimal immune function • The COVID pandemic served as a collective spiritual exercise forcing humanity into introspection and accelerating consciousness awakening • Traditional medicine's "one-size-fits-all" approach fails to recognize our bio-individuality and the quantum physics of our existence • Language matters - claiming ownership of illness ("my cancer") versus acknowledging it as a temporary experience impacts our frequency • True healing requires working on all levels - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual - to remove blockages to wellness • The Enneagram and other personality systems help us understand our unique motivations and improve relationships Are you manifesting your life by default—without even realizing it?

The Healing Power of Chinese Herbs & Hemp: Natural Remedies for Stress, Sleep & More with Dr. Chloe Weber of Radical Roots - Episode 271

Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode! Important links: Check out Radical Roots Herbs here: https://radicalrootsherbs.com/ Check out Noxi Herbs for women's health here: https://www.noxiherbs.com/ Join my Substack here: https://substack.com/@sandyknutrition?utm_source=user-menu Dr. Chloe Weber returns to the podcast to share her profound knowledge of Chinese medicine and how it offers a refreshingly different approach to wellness—one that sees the body as an interconnected ecosystem rather than isolated systems needing separate fixes. We dive deep into the five elements theory (wood, fire, earth, metal, water) and how each element connects to specific organs, emotions, and physical manifestations in the body. Chloe explains why your tongue is a powerful diagnostic tool, revealing internal patterns through its color, coating, and marks. Those teeth marks on the sides of your tongue? They're actually showing spleen qi deficiency, common in overthinkers and worriers! The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we explore how hemp has been used in Chinese medicine for thousands of years. Far from being a modern addition, ancient Chinese practitioners recognized hemp's ability to tonify the liver, nourish the kidneys, and calm the heart (or spirit). Chloe breaks down the confusion around CBD, THC, and full-spectrum products, offering practical advice for finding quality products that actually work. Her insights on why full-spectrum hemp with that tiny 0.3% THC creates dramatically better results than isolates will change how you shop for these products. For women approaching or experiencing menopause, Chloe shares a beautiful perspective from Chinese medicine—viewing this transition as a "second spring" when energy previously directed toward reproduction redirects to the heart, allowing women to finally focus on themselves and share their authentic wisdom with the world. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, sleep issues, hormonal challenges, or simply seeking a more balanced approach to wellness, this conversation offers practical wisdom that bridges ancient knowledge with modern understanding. The key takeaway? Building health through daily choices that follow the "middle way"—not perfection, but progress toward balance in all aspects of life.

Stephen Davis, founder of Nikki Wearable, shares the deeply personal journey that led to creating this groundbreaking device—a 12-year battle to find answers for his daughter's mysterious illness that was eventually diagnosed as Lyme disease. When conventional treatments failed his family, Davis discovered the power of frequencies delivered through light. The Nikki wearable emerged as a wellness solution that uses specific light-emitted frequencies to communicate with cells throughout the body, essentially awakening the immune system to issues it's been ignoring. The results have been transformative, not just for Lyme patients but for people struggling with sleep issues, chronic pain, fatigue, stress, and more. The science behind Nikki challenges our traditional understanding of healing. As Davis explains, frequencies aren't new to medicine—they're embedded in everything from supplements to homeopathic remedies. What's revolutionary is the delivery method and precision. By capturing and digitizing frequencies from 74 different plants and delivering them through light, Nikki provides cells with information they need without introducing any substances into the body. The technology works by helping achieve homeostasis, activating the vagus nerve, and supporting the body's natural healing processes during parasympathetic states. Perhaps most compelling is the versatility of frequency therapy. The device offers programs for various wellness concerns, with more customization options on the horizon.

In this illuminating conversation with Bjorn Ekeberg, co-founder of Recharge Health, we uncover the science behind light therapy and explore why some devices deliver transformative results while others fall flat. Did you know that near-infrared light can penetrate up to four inches into your body, reaching deep tissues, joints, and even organs? Or that the power output of a device is often more crucial than its wavelength specifications? Bjorn shares a simple but powerful rule of thumb: "If it doesn't have a fan, it's not strong enough." This insight helps explain why those inexpensive light therapy belts often fail to deliver meaningful results. We dive deep into the cellular mechanisms at work, exploring how near-infrared light stimulates mitochondria—the energy centers that make up an astonishing 10% of your body weight. This cellular boost triggers cascading health benefits, from accelerated recovery and reduced inflammation to improved gut function and skin rejuvenation. Women experiencing perimenopausal or menopausal joint pain may find particular relief through targeted treatment, while athletes use it to prevent injuries and speed recovery from training. The applications extend far beyond what most people realize. Recent research shows promising results for respiratory conditions (including post-COVID recovery), thyroid function, fertility concerns, and even cognitive performance through the gut-brain axis. Whether you're seeking pain relief, faster recovery, or preventive health support, understanding the science behind effective light therapy empowers you to make informed choices in this rapidly evolving field.

If you want to get in touch, email me sandy@sandyknutrition.ca or sandy@tkgpartners.com The butterfly-shaped thyroid gland might be small, but its impact on your health is anything but. In this illuminating conversation with Dr. Eric Osansky, we explore how this mighty gland affects virtually everything in your body—from metabolism and weight to mood, energy, and even hair growth. Drawing from both personal and clinical experience, Dr. Osansky and I unpack the intricate connections between thyroid health, sex hormones, and aging well. As someone who navigated thyroid cancer at 41 and now menopause without a thyroid gland, I've witnessed firsthand how crucial optimized thyroid function is for vibrant health. What happens when your thyroid function shifts during perimenopause and menopause? Not a lot of practitioners connect the thyroid changes to perimenopause and menopause and Dr. Eric and I get into it. We challenge the conventional approach of relying solely on TSH testing, explaining why comprehensive assessment including free T3, free T4, and antibodies provides a more complete picture. You'll discover why stress might be your thyroid's worst enemy, how digestive health impacts hormone function, and which key nutrients support this essential gland. Whether you're dealing with unexplained weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, or other symptoms often dismissed as "just menopause," this episode offers clarity on what might actually be happening beneath the surface. Dr. Osansky shares insights from his personal journey overcoming Graves' disease naturally and his extensive work helping others with both hyper and hypothyroid conditions.

Discover the hidden ways you might be giving away your personal power in this enlightening conversation with transformational quantum energy healer Brenda Ferugia. As our world becomes increasingly digital, our energetic vulnerabilities multiply – from social media exchanges to virtual healing sessions and beyond. Ever wondered why certain interactions leave you feeling inexplicably drained? Or why some people seem to need constant physical contact with everyone they meet? Brenda draws from decades of experience to explain the subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) ways energy vampires operate and how to establish protective boundaries without guilt. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we explore the world of ethical energy work versus practitioners who may cause harm. Learn the warning signs of someone who might be energetically exploiting you – from pushy payment packages to practitioners claiming to "give you their energy." These critical distinctions could save you from experiences that leave you feeling worse rather than healed. Most startlingly, we delve into the rarely-discussed topic of energetic vulnerability in digital spaces. Those "say yes to receive energy now" sessions on social media might not be the benign experiences they seem. Brenda reveals why many clients come to her after such interactions feeling "not themselves" and experiencing unexplained disturbances.

This eye-opening conversation reveals how honey and beehive products offer profound health benefits far beyond their sweetening properties. Did you know a single honeybee produces just one-twelfth teaspoon of honey in its lifetime? Or that raw honey contains enzymes, antioxidants, and compounds that make it a functional food rather than just a sweetener? Angela shares fascinating insights into bees' crucial role in our ecosystem and how supporting these incredible pollinators benefits both environmental and human health. We dive deep into the stark differences between processed sugar and raw honey, revealing why one causes inflammatory chaos in the body while the other provides sustained energy without the crash. "Processed sugar is like throwing gasoline on a fire, while raw honey is a slow-burning log," Angela explains. If you've been confused about sweetener choices or worried about blood sugar impacts, this conversation offers clarity through evidence-based nutrition. The most fascinating segment explores lesser-known beehive treasures – propolis with its 300+ beneficial compounds, bee pollen as nature's complete multivitamin, and royal jelly's remarkable benefits for hormonal health. Angela shares practical ways to incorporate these functional foods into your daily routine, making wellness accessible through simple, sustainable changes rather than restrictive approaches.

Special Episode: The Body's Whispers: Preventive Wellness for Young Women - Episode 265

4/3/2025
Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode! This special episode is dedicated to young women, though mothers with daughters will want to share this valuable conversation with them. Prevention isn't about fear or perfectionism—it's about tuning into your body's intelligence and responding with balance and awareness. Have you considered how your body sometimes whispers warnings before health issues become serious problems? As someone who ignored those whispers until thyroid cancer forced me to listen, I'm passionate about helping young women develop health awareness and midlife women and beyond. I explore the rise in autoimmune conditions among women, how 80% of diagnoses are women, and how modern lifestyle factors contribute to this trend. Your body gives subtle signs long before serious illness develops, but only if you're paying attention. From disrupted circadian rhythms to constant digital stimulation, from highly processed foods to toxic personal care products, young women today face unprecedented challenges to their well-being. I share practical wisdom about reconnecting with your body's signals: eating whole foods when possible, setting healthy boundaries with technology, prioritizing restorative sleep, maintaining healthy vitamin D levels, and addressing emotional wellbeing. I also discuss the profound mind-body connection, particularly how unprocessed emotions and self-criticism can manifest physically. This conversation isn't about scolding or restriction—it's about empowerment through awareness. When you're truly in your body and listening to its wisdom, you naturally make choices that support balance and vibrant health. Share this episode with a young woman in your life who could benefit from these insights, and remember—balanced living works!

Beyond Sleep: Exploring Melatonin's Powerful Role in Longevity and Wellness with Dr. Deanna Minich of Symphony Health - Episode 262

3/17/2025
Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode! Important Links: Check out all the research on melatonin, the world's first natural, plant melatonin, and more with Symphony Natural Health here: https://symphonynaturalhealth.com/ Join my Substack, where you'll get a glimpse of my upcoming book: https://sandykruse.substack.com/ Interesting PubMed article relating to our discussion: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6362935/ Contact me directly here: sandy@sandyknutrition.ca or sandy@tkgpartners.com. Dr. Deanna Minich is a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, a nutrition scientist, international lecturer, teacher, and author, with over twenty years of experience in academia and in the food and dietary supplement industries. She is also the Chief Scientific Officer for Symphony Natural Health, the makers of Herbatonin, the world’s first plant melatonin. Melatonin's full potential extends beyond sleep, functioning as a powerful circadian nutrient with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and mitochondrial-protective properties. Dr. Deanna Minich reveals how this misunderstood molecule could be the key to longevity and better health when understood and used correctly. • Melatonin is primarily a circadian rhythm signaler that helps synchronize cellular clocks throughout the body • Natural melatonin production declines drastically with age—by our 50s we produce only 10% of what we had as adolescents • Light exposure significantly impacts melatonin—morning light turns it off while evening darkness triggers production • Eye color affects melatonin sensitivity—people with lighter eyes experience 17% more melatonin suppression from artificial light • Physiological doses (0.3-0.9mg) are more appropriate for general wellness than higher pharmacological doses • Plant-based melatonin (erbitonin) shows significantly greater anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects than synthetic versions • Melatonin concentrates in the mitochondria, making it a powerful protector against cellular damage and potentially beneficial in cancer therapy • Full moon cycles naturally affect melatonin production and sleep patterns regardless of direct moonlight exposure If you enjoyed this episode, please share it with someone who might benefit, and rate, review, and subscribe to my podcast.
