  • Updated Weekly

Elevated Life walks alongside the internally driven individual through real wellness and transformation. We're Johnna and Clint, a couple who've done the work and are still doing it, cutting through the noise with honest, unfiltered conversations about wellness, movement, mindset, spiritual growth, and personal responsibility. Our framework: Wellness is the foundation. Movement is the tool. Mindset is the driver. Personal responsibility is the container. Lived experience is the proof. We don't coddle, we don't sell false promises, and we don't trade in empty motivation. We share raw personal stories and practical tools for people ready to do the actual work, from nervous system regulation to attachment theory, from nutrition protocols to shadow work, from resistance training to authentic transformation. This is a real talk wellness podcast for people tired of quick fixes, surface-level motivation, and the comfortable hell of staying stuck. If you've been searching for a holistic wellness podcast that actually tells the truth about fitness, healing, and what mindset transformation really costs, you're in the right place. What we talk about: Personal growth, emotional fitness, gym confidence for beginners, masculine wellness, feminine energy, spiritual awakening, self-improvement through radical accountability, weight loss without gimmicks, couples who transform together, breaking free from limiting beliefs, inner child work, and building a life you don't need to escape from. We dig into attachment styles, especially fearful avoidant attachment, and how understanding your patterns changes everything. We explore what real wellness looks like when you strip away the industry noise and get honest about what's holding you back. Our story: We've walked through our own transformations, significant weight loss journeys, recovery work, nervous system healing, spiritual consciousness shifts, and complete life overhauls. We don't teach from a textbook. We teach from the trenches. Every tool we share is something we've tested on ourselves first. Clint's journey through masculine identity and physical transformation and Johnna's deep dive into spiritual awakening, energy work, and emotional healing give this podcast a perspective you won't find anywhere else because we're living it in real time. Who this is for: If you're internally driven and ready to stop making excuses, this is your show. If you've tried every quick fix and you're finally ready to address the real stuff, the mindset, the nervous system, the patterns you keep repeating, we're here to walk alongside you. We don't build dependency. We build people up to not need us anymore. That's the difference between what we do and what the wellness industry sells you. Whether you're looking for wellness for men, personal growth for couples, a no-BS fitness and movement podcast, or deeper work around shadow work and healing, we bring it all without sugarcoating it. Topics include: holistic health, real transformation, mindset shifts, personal responsibility, movement and mobility, spiritual growth, attachment theory, emotional regulation, masculine and feminine energy, gym ready tips, wellness without the BS, accountability, authentic living, and life transformation advice. New episodes twice weekly from Elevated Fitness and Mobility in Tonasket, Washington. It's time to stop surviving and start transforming.

    After Decades of Lessons and Lingering in a Small Town We’re Finally Choosing a Fresh Start on Kauai

    We’re moving. After years of back-and-forth, lists, and honest conversations, we’re laying out the real, personal reasons we’re leaving Tonasket and Okanogan County for Kauai. These aren’t generic complaints about rural life — they’re our specific experiences with weather, community dynamics, completed growth cycles, and deep personal history that no longer fits who we’ve become. What we get into: Extreme temperature swings, gray winters that drag on mental health, fire season smoke, and wind that make the environment feel increasingly brutal instead of beautifulHow small-town history follows you — old versions of yourself, rumors, judgments, and events from ten or twenty years ago that people won’t let go of, even when you’ve done the workA community scarcity mindset that caps what’s possible for a health and fitness business, plus limited opportunities to volunteer without drama or being chewed up for being humanThe feeling that this chapter has genuinely run its course — lessons were learned here, growth happened, and now it’s time for a new beginning where the evolved versions of ourselves can exist without the constant ball and chain of the pastLack of low-key entertainment and social options that don’t come with sideways comments, gossip chains, or scanning the room for who you might run intoDeep personal and family trauma tied to the area that makes staying — and even visiting — painful and unsustainable for us and our kidsWe’re not claiming these issues are unique to this place or that we won’t face challenges anywhere we land. We’re saying this specific combination of weather, history, community fit, and personal pain has reached its limit for us. We’ve done the work. The cycle is complete. Now we get to cut what no longer serves and step into a fresh start where the better versions of ourselves can actually breathe. Want tools for your own transitions and growth?

    Cyclosporiasis Outbreak Hits With Explosive Diarrhea — Why Parasite Cleansing Is Non-Negotiable

    A real parasitic infection called cyclosporiasis is currently surging, with Michigan reporting 572 cases in a short window and positive cases now confirmed across 18 states. Mainstream outlets are covering the spike in explosive diarrhea, intestinal distress, and the usual warnings around fresh produce. We break down what’s actually happening and why this moment is a perfect reminder that parasite cleansing isn’t optional or one-and-done. What we get into: The current cyclosporiasis numbers, typical sources (berries, herbs, bagged salads, produce), and why the outbreak is concentrated in certain regions right nowHow parasites are introduced daily through food, water, pets, dirt, and undercooked animal products — exposure is universal, not a “dirty” person problemWhy a healthy immune system handles most parasites naturally, but most people’s systems are too compromised for that to work reliablyThe difference between basic cleanses and deeper protocols when standard herbs stop working (real client examples with muscle testing)Why jumping into strong parasite herbs without prep can backfire hard, and what proper preparation actually looks likePractical, ongoing strategies: spring and fall cleanses, daily diatomaceous earth, targeted anti-parasitic foods like papaya seeds, and occasional deeper interventionsThe bigger pattern of news coverage that may steer people away from fresh food while ignoring the processed-food reality that parasites actually thrive inParasites have been around since the beginning. They adapt. They don’t want to die. If you’ve never done a targeted cleanse or if it’s been years, this outbreak is your cue to stop treating it like optional wellness theater. Wash your produce, keep eating real food, and handle the parasites that come with living on this planet. Simple doesn’t mean easy, but it’s straightforward once you decide to do it consistently. Want the exact protocol we use and refine every year? Grab the Parasite Detox Blueprint at cjelevatedlife.com. It includes the full 30-day prep, the core herbs, what to expect, and how to go deeper when the basic cleanse isn’t enough. Do your own research, listen to your body, and start before the next wave of headlines hits.

    Taking Two Days to Rest Made It Clear We’re Ready to Close This Chapter

    We took a short camping trip over the Fourth of July to get a break from the nonstop packing, planning, and chaos of the move. What we got back was more than just rest. It was clarity. What we get into: Why we intentionally scheduled this trip even though life felt too busy to pauseLocal spots we love (Riverbend campground, Patterson Lake, Twisp Farmers Market, Smallwood Farms, and Old Schoolhouse Brewery) and why we wanted one last visitHow nature felt steady and grounding while everything else felt like it was wrapping upThe strange but clear feeling that this place was telling us we were done hereWhy rest isn’t a luxury when you’re in a big transition — it’s how you actually hear what’s happeningSometimes you have to step away from the to-do list to see where you actually are. We came home tired in the best way, with a quiet knowing that this chapter is finishing and we’re ready for what’s next. One honest pause, one last look around, one step closer to letting go.

    We've Made Health So Complicated We've Forgotten What Actually Makes Us Well

    One of the most optimized humans on the planet just got diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. We use that as a jumping-off point to talk about how far the health and wellness world has drifted from what actually creates real, sustainable well-being. What we get into: Why information overload, financial incentives, and extreme protocols have turned health into something most people can no longer navigateThe difference between collecting data points and actually developing wisdom about your own bodyHow outsourcing your intuition to apps, wearables, and influencers is quietly eroding your ability to hear what you actually needWhy comparison, identity attachment, and overcomplication keep people stuck even when they're "doing everything right"The foundational pieces that still matter most: whole foods, movement, sleep, stress management, relationships, and environmentAt the end of the day, health was never meant to be a full-time job of tracking, optimizing, and consuming more information. It’s a relationship with your body, your life, and the deeper layers most protocols never touch. One honest check-in with yourself, one thing simplified, one layer of noise turned down at a time.

    Going All In on Kauai After Selling the Gym Made Everything Finally Fall Into Place

    We sold the gym. We locked in on the Kauai move. And once we finally went all in with no exit plan, the right path for shipping our stuff, driving the truck to the port, and what comes next started showing up. In this episode we talk about what actually happens when you stop half-measuring a big life decision. What we get into: Why selling the gym felt more “Nord” than sad and how quickly that emotion moved through once we were already in motionThe massive list of things that got done in June while the house was in contract, the family was celebrating graduations and birthdays, and we were still training clientsHow we finally chose shipping and car transport companies where we could control the most instead of getting jerked around by brokersThe real difference between saying you’re all in and actually locking in with no backup plan, and what that did for our timelineWhy we’re both looking for a simple “respite” season on Kauai instead of immediately building the next big thingWhen you go all in on something that’s actually yours to do, the universe tends to meet you there. Not because it’s magic, but because you finally stop leaking energy in ten different directions. One clear decision, one honest look at what you’re still dragging, one step at a time into the next chapter. Want more tools for your transformation?

    How a Phone Call From an Old Friend Helped Me Release Decades of Old Energy Before Our Big Move

    We’re in the middle of packing up our life and getting ready to move to Kauai when one unexpected phone call from an old friend shifted everything. In this episode we talk about the real process of letting go — not just the physical stuff, but the old energy attached to it — and how it finally clicked for me. What we get into: Why packing up decades of belongings forced a deeper look at what we were actually carrying forwardThe moment a single phone call gave perspective on why holding onto old stuff was keeping me stuckHow intentional release (not just ruthless purging) changes the energy you bring into a new chapterThe difference between letting go from a place of overwhelm versus from a place of clarity and choiceWhy some things are easy to release and others require a real internal shift before you can drop themThis move has been one long lesson in releasing what no longer belongs in the next season. Sometimes it takes an outside perspective to finally see what you’ve been dragging with you. One honest look at what you’re still holding, one thing released with intention, one step lighter into what’s next. Want more tools for your transformation?

    When Main Character Syndrome Causes You to Diminish Everyone Else's Story

    Main character syndrome has become a popular way to describe the very human tendency to center ourselves in every story. We break down what it actually is, how it differs from narcissism, and why the line between healthy self-confidence and making other people feel small is one worth paying attention to. What we get into: Why main character syndrome is more situational than full-blown narcissism and why that distinction mattersHow social media turned “main character energy” from something empowering into something that often dismisses other peopleThe difference between genuine excitement that interrupts and the need to always redirect attention back to yourselfWhy healthy confidence never requires making someone else’s experience smaller or less importantPractical ways to stay self-aware without falling into constant self-fixing or self-judgmentAt the end of the day, we’re all the main character in our own lives. The real work is learning how to hold that truth without erasing anyone else’s. One honest check-in, one moment of choosing not to diminish someone, one step toward better awareness at a time.

    Learning to Trust and Let Go When Life’s Chaos Forces the Release

    We’ve been deep in the messy middle of selling the house, purging decades of stuff, finalizing the gym sale, and getting ready to move to Kauai. In this episode we get honest about the real lessons that surfaced when life kept testing our ability to trust the process while still taking care of ourselves. What we get into: The frustration of relying on other people and learning when to stop waiting and set boundariesWhy processing the emotions of letting go matters more than just staying busy with tasksFinding the balance between trusting the universe’s timeline and still taking personal responsibilityHow main character syndrome creeps in when you’re waiting on others to follow throughThe importance of laughing and finding small moments of joy even when everything feels overwhelmingThis is what walking it out actually looks like. The in-between is where the real work happens. One honest emotion felt, one boundary set, one laugh taken, one step forward at a time. Want more tools for your transformation?
