    Why Getting Sick Might Actually Be GOOD for You (and What It Says About Your Metabolism)

    In this episode of Rooted in Resilience, Ashley sits down with Dr. Alex Orton to challenge one of the most common beliefs in modern health: that getting sick is always a bad thing. What if occasional illness is actually a sign of a resilient, functioning body? Together, they explore how acute illness fits into the bigger picture of metabolic health, why suppressing symptoms may do more harm than good, and how your body’s ability to mount a response (like a fever) is directly tied to your energy production and vitality. They also break down: Why not getting sick for years might not be a flexThe connection between metabolism, body temperature, and immune functionHow modern life suppresses the body’s natural healing processesThe role of rest, nourishment, and detox pathways during illnessWhy true healing isn’t linear and requires patience This episode will shift how you view sickness, symptoms, and what it actually means to be “healthy.” TIMESTAMPS 00:43 – Why getting sick might actually be beneficial 02:20 – How often should you get sick? Is “never” a red flag? 05:00 – Acute vs chronic illness (and how suppression leads to deeper issues) 07:30 – Why energy & metabolism determine your ability to heal 12:20 – The long-term consequences of symptom suppression 18:20 – Fever explained: why higher body temperature is therapeutic 25:30 – Metabolism, body temperature & declining health in modern society 31:30 – “Healing isn’t linear”: understanding symptoms returning over time 46:50 – What to actually do when you’re sick (rest, food, detox, support) 1:07:30 – The real bottleneck in health: mastering the basics 1:30:00 – Why healing takes time (and why quick fixes don’t work) _____________________________________________________________ Link to previous podcast with Dr. Alex Orton, where we discuss the downfalls of modern functional medicine and the four pillars of true health.

    Why Fat Loss Fails: The Biggest Mistakes Keeping You Stuck

    Why do so many people spin their wheels with fat loss, despite trying so hard? In this episode of the Rooted in Resilience podcast, Ashley, Sarah, Kathleen, and Tyler break down the most common reasons people fail in a fat loss phase: from program hopping and chasing the “secret sauce” to all-or-nothing thinking, supplement distractions, and misreading the scale. After helping hundreds of people improve metabolism, lose fat, and keep it off, we’re sharing the patterns we see over and over again, and the mindset shifts that actually move the needle forward. If you’ve ever felt stuck, inconsistent, or like you’re doing everything right but not seeing progress, this episode is for you. We cover: - program hopping and protocol hopping - chasing the “secret sauce” - all-or-nothing thinking after one off-plan meal - trying new supplements and foods during a fat loss phase - weighing yourself too infrequently and misreading progress Time stamps: 02:00 - Program hopping & lack of consistency 07:30 - Why small habits matter more than hacks 14:30 - The real reason people feel stuck 29:20 - All-or-nothing mindset (one bad meal spiral) 39:15 - Supplements, new foods & fat loss confusion 48:45 - Focusing on the wrong goals at the wrong time 58:45 - How to actually track progress (and what works)_____________________________________________________________ Subscribe To The Rooted In Resilience Podcast:⭐ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCSpofOL75STGMvUUlD5em7g ⭐ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3NTIxm2iqgIdnqI2j2FICr?si=477cfb0440fe40ce⭐ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rooted-in-resilience/id1663060063_____________________________________________________________ Keep Up With Us!🖥️ Website: https://www.armstrongsisters.com/🗞️ Newsletter: https://www.armstrongsisters.com/newsletter-signup_____________________________________________________________Support Us & Our Mission to Change the food system! 👩🏼‍🌾 Our Farm CoOp, Nourish Food Club: {The highest quality food you can find, delivered directly to your door.

    The Missing Piece in Most Diets: Micronutrients

    Most people focus on just calories and macronutrients (protein, carbs, and fat) but ignore the micronutrients that actually allow the body to function. Both macros and micros matter. In this episode, we break down why vitamins and minerals are essential for metabolism, energy production, and overall health. Without adequate micronutrients, the body cannot efficiently convert food into energy, regulate hormones, or support detoxification pathways. Many modern diets provide enough calories but fall short in the essential nutrients needed for optimal health. In this episode we discuss: • Why micronutrients are necessary for metabolic function• How vitamin and mineral deficiencies develop • The limitations of focusing only on calories and macros • Why whole foods provide nutrients in ways supplements cannot replicate• Common micronutrient deficiencies today • How to track your micronutrients using tools like Cronometer • Why “detox” is really about supporting your body with nutrients Through the Transform program, we consistently see that individuals who hit their micronutrient targets through whole foods achieve better fat loss results, experience less hunger, and report higher energy levels. Transform helps you dial in both macro and micronutrient targets to support body recomposition, fat loss, and improved metabolic function so you can feel and perform at your best.

    I Lost 10 Pounds in 5 Weeks: Here’s Exactly What I Did (with Kathleen Stewart)

    In this episode of Rooted in Resilience, Ash is joined again by Kathleen Stewart to break down my recent 5-week fat loss phase, where I lost about 10 pounds while maintaining muscle mass and lifts in the gym. We walk through exactly what I did, why it worked, and how we approach fat loss differently inside Transform, so you can use these principles on your own or join us inside the program. We cover why we don’t believe in jumping straight into a calorie deficit, the importance of building maintenance calories first, and why short, strategic fat loss phases tend to work better than staying stuck in long-term restriction. We also dive into the fear around muscle loss during a cut, why strength training, steps, cardio, and adequate protein matter, and how micronutrients play a major role in energy production, satiety, and overall success during a fat loss phase. In this episode, we cover: • why I split my fat loss goals into phases • how I lost 10 pounds in 5 weeks • why maintenance calories matter before cutting • the difference between lean mass loss and muscle loss • how to protect muscle during a calorie deficit • why tracking steps is so important • how Transform structures fat loss phases • why micronutrients matter for metabolism and satiety • the importance of getting in, getting it done, and getting back to maintenance If you’ve been stuck in yo-yo dieting, under-eating during the week, and overdoing it on the weekends, this episode will help you understand a more sustainable and effective way to approach fat loss.

    The One Word Changing My Life in 2026

    In this solo episode of the Rooted in Resilience Podcast, Ashley shares the word she’s carrying into 2026: surrender. For many of us who care deeply about our work, our health, and the people around us, it’s easy to fall into the trap of trying to control everything. We overthink decisions, carry responsibilities that aren’t ours, and constantly search for the next solution. But what if the answer isn’t pushing harder? What if it’s learning to surrender? In this vulnerable and reflective episode, Ashley explores the difference between giving up and surrendering, why letting go of control can actually lead to better outcomes, and how fear and information overload keep many of us stuck in cycles of stress and overthinking. She also shares practical reframes she’s been practicing to help release the pressure of trying to control every outcome: in business, health, and life.If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying too much responsibility, this conversation will resonate. Because sometimes the most powerful shift isn’t doing more…It’s learning to let go of what was never yours to carry. In this episode, we discuss: • Why Ashley chose “surrender” as her word for 2026 • The hidden mental burden of entrepreneurship and responsibility • The difference between surrender and giving up • How information overload and social media make surrender harder • The role of fear in controlling outcomes • Why uncertainty is required for growth • Practical reframes for releasing pressure and overthinking • How surrender applies to health and healing _____________________________________________________________ Subscribe To The Rooted In Resilience Podcast:⭐ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCSpofOL75STGMvUUlD5em7g ⭐ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3NTIxm2iqgIdnqI2j2FICr?si=477cfb0440fe40ce⭐ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rooted-in-resilience/id1663060063_____________________________________________________________ Keep Up With Us!🖥️ Website: https://www.armstrongsisters.com/🗞️ Newsletter: https://www.armstrongsisters.com/newsletter-signup_____________________________________________________________ Support Us & Our Mission to Change the food system! 👩🏼‍🌾 Our Farm CoOp, Nourish Food Club: {The highest quality food you can find, delivered directly to your door.

    Skinny Culture Is Back, And It’s Not About Health

    Skinny culture is back, and it’s louder than ever. In this episode, we talk honestly about the pressure to be ultra-thin (at all costs!) and why chasing that look can quietly wreck your health, your hormones, and your long-term well-being. Ashley and Sarah share their own stories of growing up in the height of constantly under eating and thinking smaller always meant better. What felt like “discipline” at the time turned into years of physical and emotional consequences, from tanked metabolism to anxiety and body obsession. We unpack how social media has revived the thin ideal, how extreme low-calorie diets are being normalized again, and how trends like GLP-1 medications are shifting the goal from “healthy” to simply “smaller.” We also break down what actually happens inside your body during prolonged under-eating, from muscle loss and hormone disruption to immune suppression and poor detox capacity.But this conversation isn’t just about what’s wrong. We talk about what real health looks like: protecting your metabolism, preserving muscle, supporting your hormones, and building habits that are sustainable. We discuss why short, intentional fat-loss phases are very different from chronic restriction, and why strength, nourishment, and resilience matter more than a number on a scale. If you’ve ever felt caught in the cycle of dieting, comparison, or trying to shrink yourself to feel “enough,” this episode is for you.It’s an honest conversation about breaking the skinny mindset, and building a healthier future for ourselves and the next generation.

    When Holistic Becomes Conventional: Rethinking Naturopathic Medicine with Dr. Alex Orton

    Has modern naturopathic medicine lost its way? In this episode of Rooted in Resilience, we sit down with Dr. Alex Orton to explore an uncomfortable but important question: as naturopathic medicine has grown in popularity, has it quietly begun to resemble the very conventional system it once sought to challenge? Dr. Orton shares his personal journey into naturopathic medicine, which began after his own health crisis in college. What started as panic attacks and poor lifestyle habits ultimately led him to discover the powerful impact of nutrition, sunlight, meditation, and foundational health practices, and to pursue a career rooted in holistic healing. Together, we unpack common misconceptions around naturopathic and functional medicine, including the assumption that “holistic” automatically means whole-person care. Dr. Orton describes the naturopathic landscape as a kind of “Wild West,” where differing philosophies can leave patients confused and overwhelmed. He also highlights a concerning shift toward lab-driven, supplement-heavy approaches, what he calls “green allopathy”, and explains why this mindset can miss the body’s innate healing intelligence. At the heart of this conversation is the philosophy of vitalism: the belief that the body knows how to heal when given the right conditions. Rather than treating the body like a machine to be fixed, Dr. Orton emphasizes supporting energy production, mental-emotional health, and the foundational pillars of wellness. We also discuss food intolerance testing, the importance of mindset in healing, and why surrender, not force, often plays a key role in recovery. This episode is a thoughtful invitation to rethink what true holistic care looks like, and to reconnect with the body’s natural capacity for healing. Topics covered include: Has naturopathic medicine become too conventional?The rise of “green allopathy” and supplement overloadEnergy production is crucial for healing.Vitalism and the body’s innate healing intelligenceThe importance of mental-emotional healthFood intolerance testing and personalized careDr. Alex’s four pillars of health include detoxification, nutrition, lifestyle, and mental-emotional health.Why surrender can be an essential part of healing If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by protocols, confused by conflicting health advice, or disconnected from your body in the healing process, this conversation offers a refreshing and grounded perspective!
