This was your most voted episode and once you hear what the research actually shows, you'll understand why. In this episode I'm covering what endocrine disrupting chemicals are, where they're coming from in your home right now, and the evidence behind what they're doing to children's development — physically, hormonally, neurologically, and behaviourally. What's covered: * What EDCs are and how they work in the body * Where they're actually coming from * Why the research on children is more concerning than on adults * What the science shows about girls' long-term health outcomes from early exposure * What's happening to boys and why this one barely gets talked about * The thyroid, the brain, and the windows that matter most * The link between EDCs, a condition that affects 1 in 5 children, and what it's doing to their sleep * What this means for your child's gut health and immune system * The one stat about reducing exposure that changes how urgent this feels * What to change first and what actually moves the needle Resources mentioned: * Non-Toxic Living Guide — [link] [https://elizabeth-oneill-wellness.thrivecart.com/low-tox-lifestyle] * Decode Your Child's Symptoms — [link] [https://sales.elizabeth-oneill.com] * Kids 1:1 — Application — [link] [https://l.bttr.to/o6zHH]

023: Why Everything You're Doing Makes Sense And Still Isn't Working

This episode is for the woman who is doing everything right, not the woman who has given up and not the woman who is passive or uninformed. The one who has researched more, spent more, tried more — and still cannot close the gap between her effort and how she actually feels. If you have been sitting with the quiet suspicion that you are missing something fundamental this episode will name exactly what that is. And if you are a mother listening and recognising this not in yourself but in your child, stay with it as this episode is for you too. 🎧 In this episode: Why the effort isn’t the problem and what the actual gap is Why the same symptoms can have completely different drivers in different bodies and why that distinction changes everything What happens when you keep making intelligent decisions without accurate information Why the wellness world may be running the same model as conventional medicine, just with different products What your body actually responds to and why it has nothing to do with how hard you try ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:02 Introduction 00:28 The woman doing everything right 05:04 If you are a mother listening 06:27 The real reason nothing is working 08:57 The first example and it is probably not what you think 18:13 What your body actually responds to 20:01 The wellness culture problem nobody is naming 🔗 Connect with Elizabeth: Website: https://elizabeth-oneill.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabetho.neill Explore The Real Remedy: https://elizabeth-oneill-wellness.thrivecart.com/realremedy/ Work with Elizabeth: https://elizabeth-oneill.com/work-with-me 💌 Subscribe if this landed.

022: What to Consider When Sober Curious

This episode is for the woman who isn’t at rock bottom, isn’t out of control, and isn’t even sure she has a problem… …but feels a quiet nudge that something about her relationship with alcohol no longer feels aligned. I recorded this episode because of my own lived experience with alcohol—and because I kept noticing how many other women were quietly questioning theirs too. This episode is airing around the Christmas–New Year period, when conversations about Dry January and sobriety tend to surface, but what I share here goes much deeper than a 30-day challenge. This is not an anti-alcohol lecture. I’m not here to tell you to stop drinking or to shame you for enjoying a glass of wine. I’m here to help you understand what alcohol may be doing for you—emotionally and biochemically—so you can make choices from awareness instead of white-knuckling or self-judgment. 🎧 IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN: * Why most women who struggle with alcohol don’t fit the stereotype of “alcoholic” * The emotional reasons women reach for alcohol: overwhelm, loneliness, exhaustion, and disconnection * How alcohol functions as emotional relief, stimulation, dissociation, or numbing * Why craving alcohol is often a signal, not a flaw * The difference between emotional craving and biochemical craving * How alcohol damages the gut microbiome and drives anxiety, low mood, and blood sugar swings * The key nutrients depleted by alcohol: B vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium, and healthy fats * Why burnout and adrenal depletion make alcohol especially tempting in the evening * The four brain pathways alcohol temporarily manipulates: GABA, dopamine, endorphins, and serotonin * Why white-knuckling sobriety rarely works * What actually helps when you’re stepping away from alcohol * What to expect emotionally and physically when you stop drinking * Why symptoms coming up doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Introduction to The Real Remedy 00:28 Personal Struggles with Alcohol 01:08 Curiosity About Alcohol and Dry January 01:35 Emotional and Physical Aspects of Alcohol Cravings 05:45 Biochemistry of Craving Alcohol 12:59 Physical Health and Alcohol 18:12 Brain Pathways and Alcohol Desire 24:48 Challenges and Tips for Quitting Alcohol 26:52 Conclusion and Support Resources 🔗 CONNECT WITH ELIZABETH: * Website: https://elizabeth-oneill.com/ [https://elizabeth-oneill.com/] * Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabetho.neill [https://www.instagram.com/elizabetho.neill] * Explore The Real Remedy: https://elizabeth-oneill-wellness.thrivecart.com/realremedy/ [https://elizabeth-oneill-wellness.thrivecart.com/realremedy/] * Work with Elizabeth: https://elizabeth-oneill.com/work-with-me [https://elizabeth-oneill.com/work-with-me] 🔗 FROM THIS EPISODE: 014: Will Vitamin D help your winter blues https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/014-will-vitamin-d-help-your-winter-blues/id1831109345?i=1000735370573 [https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/014-will-vitamin-d-help-your-winter-blues/id1831109345?i=1000735370573] 018: Your Exhaustion Isn’t From Doing Too Much… It's From One Thing You’re Not Doing Part 1 https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/018-your-exhaustion-isnt-from-doing-too-much-its-from/id1831109345?i=1000739478890 [https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/018-your-exhaustion-isnt-from-doing-too-much-its-from/id1831109345?i=1000739478890] 019: Your Exhaustion Isn’t From Doing Too Much… It's From One Thing You’re Not Doing Part 2 https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/019-your-exhaustion-isnt-from-doing-too-much-its-from/id1831109345?i=1000740622804 [https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/019-your-exhaustion-isnt-from-doing-too-much-its-from/id1831109345?i=1000740622804] Additional Reading: 💌 WANT MORE LIKE THIS?

021: Choosing Presence Over Panic Part 2

This episode may be activating for some people. And if it is, I want you to stay. In Part 1, I shared what happened when my scan results changed and how I chose presence over panic. In this second part, I go deeper into why I relate to cancer the way I do—and what this moment has asked me to look at, emotionally and physically. Cancer has never come into my life to punish me or tell me I “did something wrong.” It came as a redirection. A messenger pointing to the ways I had been silencing myself, people-pleasing, carrying rejection, and erasing my own needs. And this time, instead of spiraling or dissociating, I chose to stay with myself and listen.  This episode isn’t about cancer alone. It’s about any moment where life hands you something you didn’t choose—and the decision you always get to make in that moment: abandon yourself, or stay rooted in your body and truth. 🎧IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN: * Why I don’t believe cancer came to kill me, but to redirect me * The lineage patterns on my maternal line and what they reveal about women carrying too much * The difference between fear and making decisions from fear * Why this has been the hardest year of my life—and why my body speaking up makes sense * How physical symptoms are often the final signal of emotional overload * Why emotional healing must come before physical improvement * What it means to stay in your body instead of dissociating or numbing out * How to face hard moments without needing to be fearless * Why daily practice (not willpower) trains you to stay present in crisis * How sovereignty and rootedness make clear decisions possible * Why I’m choosing not to share clinical details—and what actually is supportive for healing ⏱️TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Introduction to The Real Remedy 00:21 A Personal Battle with Cancer 01:51 The Physical and Emotional Toll 04:21 Facing Life's Challenges 06:54 Staying Rooted and Making Choices 11:21 Closing Thoughts and Next Steps 🔗CONNECT WITH ELIZABETH: * Website: https://elizabeth-oneill.com/ [https://elizabeth-oneill.com/] * Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabetho.neill [https://www.instagram.com/elizabetho.neill] * Explore The Real Remedy: https://elizabeth-oneill.com/masterclass [https://elizabeth-oneill.com/masterclass] * Work with Me: https://elizabeth-oneill.com/work-with-me [https://elizabeth-oneill.com/work-with-me] 🔗FROM THIS EPISODE: 006: What it really takes to feel safe enough to heal https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/006-what-it-really-takes-to-feel-safe-enough-to-heal/id1831109345?i=1000725861082 [https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/006-what-it-really-takes-to-feel-safe-enough-to-heal/id1831109345?i=1000725861082] 💌 WANT MORE LIKE THIS?

020: Choosing Presence Over Panic Part 1

Today’s episode is deeply personal. I’m sharing what happened at my most recent oncology checkup—the scan, the tests, the moment when routine turns into something you didn’t choose. In November, I received news that my cancer had progressed. And while this episode is about my experience, it’s also for anyone who has ever received unexpected health news, a diagnosis, or a moment that split life into before and after. This conversation isn’t about fear. It’s about presence. It’s about what happens in your body when life delivers something you didn’t ask for—and the choice you always have in that moment: to abandon yourself, or to stay. 🎧IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN: * The moment I knew something had changed—before anyone said a word * What it feels like when your body knows before your mind catches up * Why I didn’t spiral, panic, or hand my authority over to anyone else * The difference between feeling fear and making decisions from fear * Why my body—not medicine, not panic, not prognosis—has always been my authority * How cancer has never been my enemy, but a messenger * What it means to stay present instead of dissociating in moments of shock * Why diagnoses are often invitations to redirection, not punishment ⏱️TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Introduction to The Real Remedy 00:22 Personal Story: The Scan and Checkup 00:55 Diagnosis and Initial Treatment 02:30 Living with Cancer: A Personal Journey 03:18 The Unexpected News 09:22 Reflections on Cancer and Life 15:11 Conclusion and Final Thoughts 🔗CONNECT WITH ELIZABETH: * Website: https://elizabeth-oneill.com/ [https://elizabeth-oneill.com/] * Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabetho.neill [https://www.instagram.com/elizabetho.neill] * Explore The Real Remedy: https://elizabeth-oneill-wellness.thrivecart.com/realremedy/ [https://elizabeth-oneill-wellness.thrivecart.com/realremedy/] * Work with Elizabeth: https://elizabeth-o-neill-wellness-1.showit.site/ig-links?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaf7LsdBx6LfIgSBVnlh9zWZKa80lcLNU1LP6eV05gFhGbOo67w7SNBk5n-AyQ_aem__ExOLY3xoq99oBd03yZ3PQ [https://elizabeth-o-neill-wellness-1.showit.site/ig-links?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaf7LsdBx6LfIgSBVnlh9zWZKa80lcLNU1LP6eV05gFhGbOo67w7SNBk5n-AyQ_aem__ExOLY3xoq99oBd03yZ3PQ] 💌 WANT MORE LIKE THIS?
