Welcome to the Less Stressed Life. If you’re here, I bet we have a few things in common. We’re both in pursuit of a Less Stressed Life. But we don’t have it all figured out quite yet. We’re moms that want the best for our families, health practitioners that want the best for our clients and women that just want to feel better with every birthday. We’re health savvy, but we want to learn something new each day. The Less Stressed Life isn’t a destination, it’s a pursuit, a journey if you will. On this show, we talk about health from the physical, emotional and nutritional angles and want you to know that you always have options. We’re here to help you heal yourself.

    #457 Anxiety, Panic, Complex Trauma, Ayurveda & a functional perspective with Dr. Nicole Cain

    Send us Fan Mail This week, I’m joined by Dr. Nicole Cain for a conversation about anxiety, panic, stress, and what our symptoms might be trying to tell us. We talk about the difference between fear, anxiety, and panic, why anxiety may be more of a signal than a problem, and how chronic stress can quietly build beneath the surface long before we recognize it. Dr. Nicole shares her perspective on complex trauma, nervous system regulation, and the ways modern life constantly pulls us into reactivity without us even realizing it. We also explore why awareness is often the first step toward healing, how nature can help bring us back into balance, and why anxiety isn’t necessarily something you have to live with forever. Check out Dr. Nicole's Free Gifts here: https://drnicolecain.com/free-gifts/ KEY TAKEAWAYS:  Anxiety may be a signal rather than the problem itself  Panic often builds long before it feels like it comes out of nowhere  Chronic stress can become invisible when it feels normal  Complex trauma develops through repeated experiences over time  Nature and nervous system regulation can support healingABOUT GUEST: Dr. Nicole Cain is a naturopathic physician, EMDR-trained clinician, author, and expert in trauma-informed mental health care, holistic anxiety treatment, and panic recovery. Holding a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology, she combines evidence-based psychology with integrative and functional medicine to help people address the root causes of anxiety and chronic stress. She is the author of Panic Proof (Rodale, 2024) and host of the Holistic Inner Balance: Natural Mental Health Podcast, where she shares research-backed strategies for emotional well-being. Dr. Nicole is also a regular contributor to Psychology Today and has been featured in numerous national health and wellness publications.

    #456 Thriving with Autoimmunity with Michele Spring, CHC

    Send us Fan Mail This week, I’m joined by Michele Spring for a conversation about Hashimoto’s, autoimmune healing, and the often-overlooked role stress plays in chronic illness. We talk about why food can be a powerful tool for uncovering inflammation, how restrictive diets are meant to be temporary, and what happens when symptoms return after you've already done the work to feel better. We also explore the connection between perfectionism, people-pleasing, overachievement, and autoimmune disease, along with why nervous system regulation became such an important piece of Michele’s healing journey. KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Hashimoto’s is about more than thyroid hormones • Food can uncover hidden sources of inflammation • Healing often requires more than dietary changes • Overachievement and people-pleasing can fuel chronic stress • Nervous system support is a missing piece for many people ABOUT GUEST: Michele Spring is an autoimmune health coach, founder of Thriving Autoimmune, and a Hashimoto’s and Celiac disease warrior. After struggling for years with fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and other symptoms despite conventional treatment, she discovered a root-cause approach that transformed her health. Today, Michele helps women with Hashimoto’s and hypothyroidism reclaim their energy, clarity, and confidence through nutrition, gut health, nervous system support, and sustainable lifestyle changes. Through her coaching programs, educational resources, and personal experience, she has helped hundreds of women take control of their health and thrive.  WHERE TO FIND GUEST: Website: https://thrivingautoimmune.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thrivingautoimmune/ SPONSOR: Thank you to Jigsaw Health for being such a great sponsor. 😎  Try their Electrolyte Supreme in the crowd-favorite Fruit Punch flavor this summer.🍓🍹Use code LESSSTRESSED10 on every order for 10% off!  NUTRITION PHILOSOPHY OF LESS STRESSED LIFE: 🍽️ Over restriction is dead 🥑 Whole food is soul food and fed is best 🔄 Sustainable, synergistic nutrition is in (the opposite of whack-a-mole supplementation & supplement graveyards) 🤝 You don’t have to figure it out alone ❤️ Do your best and leave the rest WHERE TO FIND CHRISTA: Website: https://www.christabiegler.com/ Instagram: @anti.inflammatory.nutritionist Podcast Instagram: @lessstressedlife YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lessstressedlife More Links + Quizzes: https://www.christabiegler.com/links Protocols: https://www.christabiegler.com/protocolshop

We talk about how screen use, inflammation, and environmental stressors affect the eyes, why dry eye is becoming increasingly common, and what newer therapies are changing the way practitioners approach treatment.

    #454 Two Words that can Amplify Your Authentic Self with Rianne Klein Getlink

    Send us Fan Mail This week, I’m joined by my friend and fellow mastermind member, Rianne Klein Getlink, for a conversation about authenticity, self-expression, and the subtle ways we learn to wear masks to fit into the world around us. We talk about how conditioning, professional expectations, and social pressure can slowly disconnect us from who we naturally are, along with why the things that feel most effortless to us are often the biggest clues to our authentic selves. We also explore two Dutch words that don’t have direct English translations but completely change the way we think about ease, joy, anticipation, and possibility. This episode is a reminder that reinvention is always available and that maybe the parts of yourself you’ve been trying to tone down are actually the parts that were meant to shine the brightest.  KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Many women unknowingly wear “masks” to fit in • What feels effortless may reveal your authentic self • Conditioning can disconnect us from our natural energy • Anticipation and joy are experiences worth cultivating • “Yes, and” thinking creates more creativity and possibility • Small mindset shifts can change your energy quickly • Reinvention is possible at any stage of life ABOUT GUEST: Most of us desire to BE ourselves in every context, yet as we age we create a multitude of filters and masks between who we are and how we express ourselves. Rianne (49, The Netherlands) is on a mission to bring out all and more that what makes you YOU into the world. We're all born with an innate energy that wants to be expressed and instead of dimming your light, let's amplify all that lives in you so that we get to witness the real you and in return you feel actually seen as you. A Less Stressed Life because you get to live it as YOU.

    #452 The Secret Language of Your Body with Inna Segal

    Send us Fan Mail This week, Inna Segal joins me to talk about healing in a way that goes beyond quick fixes. Instead of looking for someone else to “fix” you, we break down what it actually means to participate in your own healing and why that shift is often the turning point. We walk through the stages of healing, why people get stuck, and how the nervous system, past experiences, and overwhelm can slow progress. We also talk about how to start reconnecting with your body through simple tools like breath and awareness, and how symptoms can act as signals instead of something to suppress. If you want to go deeper, Inna offers a couple of starting points to help you begin this work: 👉 The Secret Language of Your Body Masterclass 👉 Intuitive Masterclass KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Healing requires your participation • There are stages to healing you can’t skip • The nervous system has to be ready for change • Symptoms can be signals, not just problems • Overwhelm keeps you stuck early on • Connection starts with breath, touch, and awareness  ABOUT GUEST: Inna Segal is a pioneer in the field of energy medicine and human consciousness, and the bestselling author of The Secret Language of Your Body, translated into 27 languages and sold over a million copies worldwide. Her journey began after years of illness and the tragic stillbirth of her child, which led her to discover a profound ability to heal herself. From that turning point, she dedicated her life to helping others transform pain into freedom. For over 25 years, Inna has worked with people worldwide—from doctors and psychologists to trauma survivors and creatives—teaching how to uncover the true roots of suffering and restore health through the wisdom of the body and soul.
