    Episode 29: How Your Home Impacts Your Mind: Design, Light, & the Nervous System with Geri Del Vento

    We first met Geri Del Vento when we were hunting for a space to record this very podcast, and hers was so beautifully designed we couldn't stop talking about it. Geri is a Venezuelan-born, Miami-raised creative whose path wound through dance, church environments, and motherhood before landing in interior design, and she brings real warmth and intention to everything she touches. We get into something I care about deeply: the connection between your environment and how you feel. Geri explains why design is more than aesthetics, it's intentionality, and how the spaces we live in speak directly to our nervous system, our sense of calm, and even our sleep. We dig into lighting, talk about color, and why the goal is never to chase a trend but to find what genuinely brings you peace. We get into texture and we talk about which rooms matter most, why the kitchen and family room might be your true sanctuary, and how to treat the bedroom as a place of rest. Whether you want to refresh one room on a budget or rethink how your whole home makes you feel, this one will change how you see the space around you.

    Episode 28: Women's Training Myths, Debunked: What the Science Actually Says, with Dr. Alyssa Olenick

    I slid into Dr. Alyssa Olenick's DMs because I love her content that much, and this conversation did not disappoint. Alyssa has a PhD in exercise physiology specializing in women's health and metabolism, plus postdoctoral training in menopause, and she has run eighteen ultramarathons, so she brings both the research and the lived experience. We start where so much confusion lives: the sea of fitness misinformation aimed at women.She lays out a genuinely useful blueprint: the three pillars of a complete program, how to actually tell if you're working hard enough, and why two to three quality strength sessions a week is enough. We get into power specifically, and why we lose it even faster than muscle as we age, which matters far more than it sounds.  Then we get into the reframe that changed how I train: the truth about your menstrual cycle and exercise. Your body's actual capacity doesn't meaningfully change across your cycle, but how it feels does, and understanding that difference is freeing. We get into why rigid cycle syncing falls apart, and how to work with your body instead of against it. Empowering, honest, and packed with things you can actually use, whether you're a lifelong athlete or someone who's never set foot in a gym.

    Episode 27: NAD, Peptides, and the Truth About Wellness Trends with Ashley Madsen

    I've been a fangirl of Ashley Madsen's work for a while, so getting her on the show was a real treat. Ashley is a double board-certified physician associate, international speaker, and educator in functional medicine, longevity science, and performance optimization. We start with NAD and Ashley explains why the real story is far more nuanced than "we lose it with age, so replace it." We get into why the body degrades NAD in the first place, why testing NAD is so tricky, and why the idea of a weekly NAD drip for everyone doesn't hold up. She also explains the role of methylation support, and why building a foundation matters before layering on the fancy stuff. From there we talk peptides. Ashley breaks down how it works, who it may help, and why the human safety data behind it stands out. We even play a rapid-fire round on peptides. We close on where personalized medicine is going, why "knowledge replaces fear," and Ashley's lovely idea of the lily pad effect, how every pivot and even every failure prepares you for what comes next. A note: this is one of our more clinical conversations, and everything discussed is educational, not medical advice. Any therapy mentioned should be considered only with a qualified clinician.

    Episode 26: Postpartum, Perimenopause, and the Mental Load: A Toolkit with Teresa Chamorro

    I met Dr. Teresa Chamorro at our perimenopause premiere, and afterward everyone said the same thing: bring the psychologist back. So here she is. Teresa is a clinical psychologist specializing in sleep and women's reproductive mental health, supporting women through fertility, pregnancy, loss, the postpartum period, and menopause. We start with something that isn't talked about nearly enough: postpartum mental health. We get into why postpartum depression and anxiety carry so much shame, why the six-week checkup gives a false sense of a finish line when this can take many months to move through, and how to know when a hard season has become something worth getting help for.  From there we talk about the identity shift of becoming a mother, and how to hold onto yourself inside it. We get into the perimenopause transition and how a whole team, not just hormones, supports you through it, and why tracking your symptoms gives you back a sense of control. We also cover the things I could talk about for hours: why failure is not only survivable but necessary, how to actually set and hold a boundary, the invisible mental load women carry. If you take one thing from this: express how you're feeling, don't be afraid to set boundaries, and give yourself real breaks. You are not alone.

    Episode 25: Body Clocks, Wearables, and Finding Your Rhythm with Alex Zoghbi

    My Operations and Brand Manager Alex is back, and this time we didn't stick to one topic. We talked about circadian rhythm and why morning people and night owls are both just wired differently, how we each build habits around our own energy instead of against it, and how to use tools like the Oura ring without letting them override what your body's already telling you. We got into stress, mindfulness, parenting, and the ongoing search for purpose. And we closed on the theme of the week in the clinic: blood sugar, and why steady beats high every time when it comes to hormones, mood, sleep, and skin.

    Episode 24: The Science of Behavior Change: Why Willpower Fails and What Works with Sarah Welsh

    I've read all the habit books and stumbled my way toward what works, so sitting down with someone who studies behavior for a living was a gift.  Sarah Welsh is a board-certified behavior analyst, and this conversation reframed how I think about change entirely. Here's some of what we get into: Why willpower isn't the answer, and what actually is and how to start a habit when you hate the very thing you're trying to do. Sarah walks through exactly how, starting far smaller than you'd think and rewarding yourself far more often. Why ending a behavior is harder than starting one, and why adding a healthier replacement beats forcing yourself to quit. Most especially, what to do when you fall off track, because you will. Sarah teaches us how to plan for it, drop the shame, and get back on quickly instead of giving up entirely. And the reframes that stuck with me most: why you act your way into an identity rather than waiting to feel it, and how your environment quietly shapes your behavior more than your intentions ever will. If lasting change has always felt just out of reach, this one will change how you see it.

    Episode 23: Perimenopause, HRT, and Hormone Therapy: Your Questions Answered

    So many questions have been coming in lately about perimenopause, HRT, what to do, and when to do it from patients that I have yet to answer.  This episode is dedicated to answering every single one of them.  When should you consider starting hormone therapy, and how do you actually raise it with your provider? Often the first sign that brings a woman in is simply not feeling like herself: disrupted sleep, new anxiety, feeling on edge. That early shift frequently traces back to declining progesterone. Is it ever too late to start? I walk through the timing hypothesis, why the delivery method matters, and why feeling symptomatic is always worth a conversation, regardless of age. Why are so many of us afraid of hormones? I unpack where that fear came from, what the Women's Health Initiative reanalysis actually showed, and why the distinction between estrogen and the synthetic progestin used in the trial matters so much. I also answer the everyday questions: whether food and supplements can support your hormones, how to tell if what you're feeling is perimenopause or just life, when in your cycle to test your hormones, whether at-home gut tests are worth it, and how conditions like PMOS and endometriosis fit into the picture. If you've been wondering where to even begin, this one is for you.

    Episode 22: The Quiet Power of Authentic Leadership: A Conversation With Kimeran Johnson

    What does it really mean to lead with authenticity, and how do you build influence without losing yourself in the process In this episode of The Rever Rundown, I sit down with Kimeran Johnson, COO and partner at Nexus Point and one of the most thoughtful leaders I've had the privilege of working with.  We talk about what it means to lead with purpose rather than ego, and why building people up is, in her words, the most important currency she has. Kimeran shares the moment she received a hatbox full of handwritten letters from colleagues when she resigned, and how that single gift became the touchstone she returns to on her hardest days. We also get honest about the things women in leadership rarely say out loud. Imposter syndrome that doesn't disappear with experience.And we explore what it actually looks like to delegate, build a team, and stop performing leadership. Toward the end, Kimeran shares the work Nexus Point is doing for entrepreneurs, including the partnership that's brought her team into the operational side of Rêver Wellness, and what it means to support founders who understand that doing everything yourself is a myth. It's a conversation about presence, purpose, and the quiet, persistent practice of becoming someone others want to be around.
