Functionally Feral is for women building businesses and raising babies- without losing their minds, their values, or their edge. Hosted by best friends Dr. Natalie and Dr. Felicia, both entrepreneurs and moms, this show dives into what it really looks like to lead at home and in business- with strategy, wellness, and a touch of rebellion. We talk about the tension and beauty of doing both well: Building successful, sustainable businesses and raising kids who are curious, conscious, and a little anti-authority.

    S2.Ep7 - Reiki Told Me I'm Too Busy- But Not Too Busy for Some Skincare and Conspiracies

    In this wild episode, we spiral from warm lemon detox drinks straight into psychic Reiki downloads, frozen feet with emotional baggage, and the shocking revelation that there may be two more babies waiting in the cosmic queue. Naturally, this leads us into:✨ Vivid death-dream symbolism (casual)✨ Korean skincare that feels like rubbing glass shards on your face✨ Clean nails, sweaty childhood trauma, and healer hot hands✨ A full conspiracy-theory birthday party featuring pyramids, chemtrails, Avril Lavigne clones… and the possibility that we never actually landed on the moon Basically, nothing is real, everything is glowing, and we might be psychic now. Welcome to Episode 7 of Functionally Feral — where healing, motherhood, and mild delusion coexist beautifully.

    S2.Ep6 - Chit Chatting About Preparing for Pregnancy in Trimester Zero

    Welcome back to Episode Six — where we immediately panic about the episode number, admit weekly podcasting might be mandatory, and then spiral into everything from hair MLM experiments to pregnancy preparation no one is actually talking about. In this episode, we cover: Natalie’s honest Monat hair review (spoiler: some hits, some absolute no’s, and a scent situation) The shocking realization that Whole Foods is no longer “Whole Paycheck” — and might actually save you money A heated debate on whether $13 tortilla chips are ever justified (and which flavors are illegal) Why Costco is never a “quick stop” and always a $600 lifestyle choice Felicia’s ski trip cancellation thanks to her dog’s FIFTH bowel obstruction surgery (because… of course) Life without gel nails, chemical detox spirals, and the 43 hours a year we sacrifice for manicures Why your liver is doing the most (and how it affects hormones, energy, pregnancy, and literally everything) The concept of “Trimester Zero” — why pre-pregnancy is the most important phase no one prepares for Vegan → animal-based transitions, mineral depletion, and why nourishment matters more than “clean eating” Placenta health, protein sourcing, and why pregnancy symptoms don’t come out of nowhere Movement, stress, Oura Ring call-outs, and why Pilates is back on the menu And a teaser for next week’s episode: Reiki, intuition, and connecting with future babies 👀✨This episode is equal parts educational, chaotic, heartfelt, and wildly relatable — especially if you’re a mom, a practitioner, trying to conceive, or just wondering why you’re exhausted despite “doing all the right things.” * Midwife Lindsey Meehleis and Dr. Paul Saladino on Nourished documentary to see the difference between placenta health * Dr. Mimi McParland - fertility expert * Fullscript  supplements we mentioned - Designs for Health Hepatatone Plus, DFH Organ Synergy, BodyBio PC or Seeking Health PC (phospolipid complex), DFH Probiospore, DFH ADK Evail fat soluble vitamin complex, Gaia Pro Vitex: Progesterone Support * Oura ring

    S2.Ep5 - Hormone Cycle Red Flags: It's Trying To Tell You Something (and you can probably fix it)

    In this episode, we catch up on Natalie’s Banff fairytale (Instagram vs. reality, horse allergies included), January taking out an entire household with flu and GI chaos (yes, even the dog), babies learning to ski, and the shocking revelation that Kyle is… a literal rocket scientist. From there, we dive headfirst into astrology packets written at birth, Human Design revelations, and why the public school system fails kids who don’t fit the “average” box. Then we get grounded (and crunchy) with a deep, practical conversation about fertility, hormones, and cycle health — the stuff most people are never actually taught. We break down basal body temperature tracking, ovulation timing, Oura Ring data, stress, illness, calorie deficits, and why your cycle is one of the most important indicators of overall health. We talk Vitex, seed cycling, liver health, male fertility (because yes, sperm matters), and why debilitating cramps, PMDD, and “just part of being a woman” narratives are not normal. This episode is educational, validating, and very honest — equal parts catch-up, science, lived experience, and gentle rebellion against everything we were told to accept about our bodies.

    S2Ep4 -Your Cycle Isn't Random: Periods, Fertility Windows, & Hormone Disruptors

    This episode starts the only way it can: a surprise toddler interruption… and a reminder that real life does not pause for podcast recordings. Then we get into it: the female hormone cycle — simplified, practical, and actually useful. We walk through what “day one” really means, what a healthy period should look like (and what’s a red flag), how to recognize your fertile window without blindly trusting an app, and why you usually feel like your hottest, most productive self around ovulation… followed by the infamous luteal phase crash. We also cover why cycle education is basically nonexistent, why one-time hormone bloodwork can be misleading, and the most alarming story ever: a 22-year-old who’s taken Plan B 30 times (yes, thirty). Finally, we talk about common hormone disruptors we see all the time — fragrance, plastics, and the sneaky stuff hiding in everyday products. Next episode, we’ll get into symptom clues and general cycle/fertility support (spoiler: it’s a lot of whole foods… with a couple herbs sprinkled in).

    S2.Ep3 - New Year, New Brain, New Habits (& conspiracies)

    New year, same us — but with a new brain (allegedly). We’re kicking off 2026 with running shoe rage (why are we inserting our own insoles??), the concept of “luxury hopping” (aka romanticizing your day with micro-luxuries every few hours), and the reality that sometimes your entire personality shift is just… a minor concussion. Then we spiral (as we do): miswak sticks instead of toothpaste, EMF hot takes, parasite chatter, toddler stomach drama, DIY carnivore “meat bark”, and a surprisingly educational detour into what a functional cycle actually looks like. And because it’s us, we end up at aliens, disclosure, nuclear sites, and a conspiracy-themed birthday party where everyone presents a slideshow to prove their theory is real. Welcome to 2026. Grab your red light, your vibe plate, and your blood pills.

    S2.Ep2 - Strung Out Like Christmas Lights

    Happy ho-ho-holidays, feral fam. We are not okay — we’re stretched thinner than a sad little hair tie and hanging on by a single scrap of wrapping paper. If your nervous system feels like Christmas lights that got tangled in storage and never emotionally recovered — same. We’re unpacking all things holiday survival: gift giving as a love language (and also a personality flaw), wrapping paper moral dilemmas, what we’re actually buying for our toddlers this year, and why a poorly trained Grinch should never be allowed within finger-tickling distance of a baby in a bunting. We also chat family traditions (cookies for Santa, carrot evidence, Seven Fishes, and a Christmas morning cold plunge that sounds illegal), plus the sweet/funny realities of mom life when your kid is either (a) calling Santa on a pretend phone line or (b) stopping the entire household production to pick up a microscopic crumb. Merry everything. Good luck out there.
