    Panic Proof. Taking Control of Your Anxiety and Getting Your Life Back with Dr Nicole Cain

    In this episode of The Simplicity Sessions, I sit down with Dr. Nicole Cain, a leading expert in trauma-informed clinical psychology and holistic medicine, to discuss her groundbreaking book "Panic Proof" and her personal journey from anxiety to embodied healing.

    What struck me most about our conversation was Nicole's radical honesty about her own path – from being the "expert" who had all the tools (supplements, acupuncture, pharmaceuticals, you name it!) to finding herself in what she calls "the dark circle of hell" with debilitating anxiety and insomnia. Her vulnerability in sharing how she had to burn everything to the ground and get genuinely curious about what her body was trying to tell her is both inspiring and deeply relatable.

    We dive deep into:

    • The profound shift from asking "what's wrong with me?" to "what is my body telling me?"

    • How childhood adaptations (like being the family peacekeeper) can become anxiety triggers in adulthood

    • Why having all the "right" tools sometimes isn't enough

    • The power of pattern interrupts and completely surrenders in healing

    • How to reclaim authorship of your own story when others have been writing it for you

    This conversation is especially powerful for anyone feeling disconnected from themselves, struggling with anxiety, or navigating major life transitions. Nicole's approach beautifully bridges the gap between clinical expertise and embodied wisdom, showing us that our symptoms aren't problems to be solved – they're messages to be understood.

    Whether you're a healthcare practitioner, someone on their own healing journey, or simply curious about the mind-body connection, this episode offers a fresh perspective on anxiety and what it means to truly come home to ourselves.

    Join us for this soul-nourishing conversation about reclaiming our innate wisdom and learning to trust our bodies again.

    Just as exercise or medication regimens aren’t one-size-fits-all, personal protocols for managing and preventing anxiety during menopause should be unique. In an interview, Dr. Cain can reveal how to:

     

    - Understand the complex relationship between estrogen, anxiety, and (peri)menopause.

    - Supplement your diet to mitigate menopause symptoms.

    - Practice breathwork to manage hot flashes!

    - Decode what your menopause symptoms are trying to tell you.

    - Shift your perspective on menopause symptoms from problems to guideposts for healing.

    Unlocking Your Body's Innate Wisdom with Alana Joy Newton

    In this deeply moving episode of Simplicity Sessions, I sit down with Alana Joy, a remarkable reconnection guide and psychotherapist whose journey from disconnection to purpose will leave you breathless.

    From her earliest memories of feeling "out of body" to navigating a challenging medical journey that was repeatedly dismissed, Alana shares how a rare genetic condition and the loss of her father became catalysts for her spiritual awakening. As a former registered nurse with over 20 years in healthcare, she brings a unique blend of scientific knowledge and spiritual wisdom to her work.

    What makes this conversation special:

    • Alana's vulnerable sharing of her childhood experiences of disconnection

    • How being told to distrust her body's signals led to a powerful reconnection journey

    • The fascinating intersection of science and spirituality in healing

    • Her transformation from government employee to purpose-driven entrepreneur

    • The power of reconnecting with our bodies, hearts, and souls

    If you've ever felt disconnected from your body, dismissed by healthcare providers, or like you don't quite belong, this episode will resonate deeply. Alana's mission to guide others through their dark night and into the light is more than just talk – it's drawn from her lived experience of transformation.

    Don't miss this powerful conversation about rediscovering joy, embracing your sensitivity, and finding your soul's purpose. This episode perfectly illustrates why I believe so strongly in the healing power of sisterhood and community.

    Join us for a conversation that weaves together physical healing, emotional awakening, and spiritual transformation in ways we haven't explored before on the show. ✨

    Your Health & Wealth Are Deeply Connected with Chris Borsellino

    Ever felt completely in the dark about your finances? In this special episode, I'm joined by my husband of 29 years, Chris Borsellino – a retired carpenter turned financial advisor who's passionate about helping people understand their money in ways they never have before.

    We dive deep into:

    • Our own journey from being in debt with a young family to finally taking control of our finances

    • The eye-opening difference between earning 4% vs 8% interest (spoiler: it could mean $700,000+ over 30 years!)

    • Why most of us have never been taught how to make our money work for us

    • The small daily habits that could be costing you thousands without realizing it

    • How to start tracking your money like a pro (even if you think you don't have a dollar to spare)

    What I love most about this conversation is how Chris breaks down complex financial concepts into simple, actionable steps. Just like I'm passionate about helping women understand their bodies, Chris is committed to demystifying finance so everyone can build real wealth – no fancy jargon required.

    Whether you're struggling with debt, trying to save for retirement, or just want to feel more confident about your financial future, this episode will give you the practical insights and motivation to take charge of your money story.

    P.S. We even share some personal money mistakes we made early in our marriage – proof that it's never too late to turn your financial life around!

    Ready to cut through the noise around menopause and find natural solutions that actually work? In this special masterclass podcast episode, I'm thrilled to team up with two powerhouse women from St. Francis Herb Farm – a company I've personally trusted for over a decade both in my clinical practice and my own health journey.

    Join me as I chat with Caitlin, VP of Sales & Marketing (and fellow mom crushing it!) and Dr. Blossom Bitting, a naturopathic physician with 20+ years of expertise in herbal medicine. We're diving deep into:

     

    • The real talk about hormone replacement therapy - and why I take a balanced approach between the "HRT is everything" and "wait on hormones" camps

    • Natural solutions for those fun perimenopausal symptoms (hello, hot flashes, anxiety, and sleep issues!)

    • Why understanding hormones is crucial when you're navigating a transition that can span over a decade

    • Practical, simple tips you can actually implement (because who needs more complicated health advice?)

     

    As someone who specializes in women's health and hormones, I'm passionate about helping you find YOUR path through this transition. Whether you're considering HRT, already on it, or looking for natural support, this episode breaks down what you really need to know about supporting your body during this time.

    Remember: Your lifestyle choices matter every single day - from digestion to movement to the company you keep. Let's explore how herbal medicine can be a powerful part of your menopause toolkit!

    Chron's And Colitis, Why Your Dr. Didn't Tell You About IBS And How To Improve Your Gut Health With Josh Dech

    I'm very excited about the chat we're having today because, in over 400 episodes, we've never had a conversation that has been solely and specifically around Crohn's and Colitis.

    This is an issue that is going on in the GI system, in the gut, in the bowels, and was previously thought to be, incurable, that there was no way that you could fix this, and it was something that people just had to live with and manage for the rest of their life.

    My guest today, Josh Dech, who is an ex-paramedic and a Holistic Nutritionist. He specializes in Crohn's and Colitis and other related gut issues, and he has been connected to some of the world's most renowned doctors and practitioners. Really studying and walking the path and learning what he has needed to for his own body and for the clients that he is working with.

    He's been recruited to the Priority Health Academy as a medical lecturer and helping educate doctors on the holistic approach to gut health and inflammatory bowel disease. Josh also launched a top 5%, globally ranked podcast.

    The Power of Menopause With Nicole Scott And Melissa Hyde

    In this episode, I have Nicole Scott and Melissa Hyde here, and, you know, we have been friends and colleagues and have known each other through the fitness industry, the nutrition industry and through being mothers going through all of the changes that life has brought.

    In the last, you know, few years, I have watched both Melissa and Nicole create a really amazing transition of taking a company that they had built and grown side by side as friends and colleagues and mothers, but now really stepped into a place of education and empowerment for women. This stemmed from going through their own experiences in perimenopause and menopause, at times feeling like they were the only ones that were going through what they were going through.

    They both went through very different experiences, which we're going to spend time talking about because as a woman listening, I think it's so important to hear the variety of ways that we can move through these times in our life. If you only ever hear one experience, you may feel like you're on an island of struggle by yourself.

    Then we're going to talk about a really exciting event that's coming up that all three of us are apart of and share about, it’s is going to be free for all of you to attend and to share with all of the women in your life.

    Is It Adrenal Burnout Or Is It This?

    In this episode, Jenn discusses her recent decision to take a de-load period, a break from her usual intense training and pace, to focus on recovery and nourishment. She explains that this decision was prompted by her body's need for a change, as she had been pushing herself hard for the past year and a half. Jenn notes that this decision is not just about physical recovery, but also about mental and emotional rejuvenation. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing the signs of adrenal fatigue, such as physical and mental exhaustion, and taking steps to reduce stress and toxicity in one's life. Jenn also shares her personal experience of feeling the need for a de-load, and how it has shifted her focus from building muscle to optimizing recovery and mobility. She encourages listeners to reflect on their own needs and consider taking a de-load period if they feel the need for it.

    The Hormonal Issue You Might Not Know You Have With Dr. Lara Briden

    In this episode, I am so excited to have our guest, Lara Briden, back here for the second time. It's been a couple of years since we've done an interview, and we are long overdue. There is a brand new book, that has been released out into the world, which is Metabolism Repair For Women. I'm just so thrilled for this book because it goes very deep into topics like insulin resistance and the fact, as you said, this is a hormonal issue that so many women are dealing with.

    I'm so grateful at the accessibility and how much for women's health is changing right now and what is out there, but it's also very overwhelming and very confusing. Even as a practitioner, sometimes you're like, oh, my gosh, which direction do I look in, let alone for the everyday woman and mother and human that's just trying to move through life.
