    Where Do Emotions Go When You Don’t Let Them Out (and Why It Matters)

    Where do emotions go when you don’t let them out? In this episode, we decode how emotions live in the body — from the TCM view of organ-emotion pairs to the astrological transits that trigger release or repression. Learn how humidity, breath, and timing affect your emotional flow, and how to maintain daily emotional hygiene that’s authentic, not performative.

    What Is Qi (and Why Everyone Keeps Talking About It)?

    In this episode of Sunroot Sessions, we’re breaking down one of the core ideas of Traditional Chinese Medicine: Qi — your life energy. You’ll learn what Qi really is (beyond the “mystical” buzz), the different types of Qi that fuel and protect your body, how it flows through channels like rivers, the real-life signs it’s out of balance, and simple ways to nourish, protect, and keep it moving. If you’ve ever felt “off” and couldn’t explain why, this episode will show you how Qi connects your body, mind, and emotions into one living system.

    What Is Medical Astrology (and How Can It Help Me)?

    In this episode of Sunroot Sessions, we explore the ancient practice of Medical Astrology — the original holistic health system of the West that connects the stars and planets to your body’s rhythms, strengths, and sensitivities. You’ll learn how your natal chart reveals constitutional tendencies, why timing (like Moon cycles and planetary transits) affects digestion, sleep, and stress, what Medical Astrology is not (spoiler: it’s not fortune-telling), and how it complements other systems like TCM and Ayurveda. If you’ve ever wanted a “weather forecast” for your health, this episode shows you how the stars can guide your healing.

    What Is TCM (and How Can It Help Me)?

    In this episode of Sunroot Sessions, we dive into what Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) really is (beyond herbs and acupuncture) and why it’s a complete medical system that sees you as a living ecosystem, not a broken machine. I’ll share how TCM views the body differently from Western medicine, the kinds of issues it can help with (yes, even the “weird” ones like waking at 3am or crying during acupuncture), what a typical consultation with me looks like, and how to know if this approach is right for you. If you’ve ever felt like “your labs are normal” while your body says otherwise, this conversation will give you a new lens on healing.

    Pilot — Who the Hell Am I (and Why Should You Listen to Me)?

    In the very first episode of Sunroot Sessions, I share my story of living with multiple chronic conditions and why I turned to Traditional Chinese Medicine and Medical Astrology to truly understand my body. This isn’t another fluffy wellness podcast; it’s about the messy, real side of healing, calling out both the limits of modern medicine and the hype of the wellness industry, and building a grounded, honest path forward. If you’ve ever been told “your labs are normal” while you still feel like crap, this one’s for you.
