"It all begins with us..." with Tabitha Sweeney, Founder of Vitality Buffalo

The path to fulfillment is embodiment (+ what does that even mean?!) with Christina Lane

Listen: If you're seeking fulfillment in something outside of yourself, be prepared for a VERY l o n g journey. True fulfillment comes when we STOP the seeking - the pursuit - and travel inward, start being present in our lives, and get real with who we are and what we deeply desire. Chasing something outside of ourselves will likely leave you with a life that looks good on the outside but doesn't always feel good on this inside. Embodiment Coach Christina Lane and I both learned this the hard way, as many of us do, when we face the big transitions and pivots in life - from divorce and loss to disease and discovery - and we hope that in sharing our stories, perhaps you'll find some thread of wisdom to weave into your own journey. Join us at the end for a short practice to help bring us back into our bodies - the one true home we have on this planet - and the place where so many of the answers we seek in this life already reside. Thank you for tuning in - we ARE better together and together, we rise. xxx Melissa P.S.

Are you hormonal?! Let's talk about the elephant in the room with Jen Krieder

When it comes to women's health, one of the topics we tend to ignore, more often than not, is hormones. Meanwhile, doctors blame so much on them from as early as the age of 10! So when I came across Jen Kreider - Certified Trainer and Nutritionist - on social media one day, I started listening to her share more than I'd ever learned before and I knew more women needed her message because she takes the topic from taboo to cocktail hour conversation. If you've wondered if this is the missing piece in your health and wellness puzzle, join us for this short convo specifically on cortisol. While be barely get to scratch the surface on this critical component of healthy living, we leave you with lots of tips on how to start moving the needle in the right direction. To connect with Jen, find her on Facebook @Jennifer White Kreider, or visit getfitwithjennyk.com. Feel free to connect personally at Jkreider200@gmail.com. Thank you for tuning in. Please let me know how you enjoyed the show. We ARE better together, and together we rise! xxx Melissa
