    173: 3 Takeaways From My Costa Rica Yoga Retreat!

    Send us Fan Mail In this solo Learning to Glow episode, I’m recapping my five day Costa Rica yoga retreat and why it convinced me to make this a yearly priority. The biggest takeaways: Deeper connection: with friends, an amazing group of women, nature, and my own body Time and space to actually be present with yoga, meditation, and workshops The reset that comes from stepping out of your routine and comfort zone We also got into powerful workshops on “side quests” (aka saying yes to spontaneity) and unpacking insecurities and negative self-talk. This trip reminded me how important it is to do things that fill your cup, even if they feel out of reach or outside your norm.

    171: The Missing Piece to Hormones, Mood and Energy with Dr. Catherine Clinton

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode, I’m talking with Dr. Catherine Clinton, a licensed naturopathic physician and author of Optimize, about a completely different way to look at health. After being diagnosed with autoimmune conditions, Lyme disease, and multiple infections during medical school, she started asking deeper questions and found her way into quantum biology.  We talk about how your body responds to things you can’t even see like light, sound, and electromagnetic fields and why those signals actually guide your biology before chemistry ever does. We also get into simple, practical things you can start doing right away that make a huge difference. • Why morning sunlight is one of the most powerful things you can do for your hormones, mood, and metabolism • How indoor lighting is affecting your energy and circadian rhythm • What grounding actually is and why it can help with stress and inflammation • A simple 5 minute heart coherence practice that can calm your body fast If you’ve been feeling off, low energy, or like you’re doing all the right things but not getting results… this might be the missing piece.

    169: Clean Beauty Is Confusing…Here’s What Actually Matters with Oni Auer

    Send us Fan Mail Today’s episode is such a good reminder that beauty doesn’t have to be complicated. I’m talking with Oni Auer, founder of ITP Beauty, about what clean beauty really means and how to approach skincare in a simpler, more grounded way. We get into how confusing “clean beauty” has become, why education matters more than labels, and how to make safer choices without feeling overwhelmed. Oni shares her story of dealing with a skin issue that led her to completely rethink her routine and eventually create her own line. We also talk about ingredients to be aware of, like formaldehyde, the difference between U.S. and EU standards, and how to avoid greenwashing. But more than anything, this conversation is about coming back to simple, safe, effective skincare and not feeling like you need to constantly fix or change yourself.

    166: Is Iron Deficiency Being Misunderstood with Samantha Chandler

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Learning to Glow, I’m joined by Samantha Chandler to explore a completely different perspective on iron, heavy periods, and women’s health. Samantha shares how a “low iron” blood test during pregnancy led her down a path of iron supplementation, postpartum complications, and eventually a deeper investigation into how iron actually functions in the body. We talk about the difference between iron levels in the blood versus how iron moves through tissues, why ferritin levels can be misunderstood, and why many women with heavy periods may actually be dealing with iron dysregulation rather than simple deficiency. We also discuss the key nutrients that support healthy iron metabolism, including copper, vitamin A, whole food vitamin C, and electrolytes. Samantha shares why she believes food quality matters, how modern iron fortification may play a role in mineral imbalance, and simple ways women can start supporting their bodies through nutrient dense foods. This conversation challenges some of the common narratives around iron deficiency and invites women to look deeper at root causes when it comes to fatigue, heavy periods, and mineral balance. In this episode we talk about: • Why “low iron” on a blood test may not tell the full story • The difference between iron deficiency and poor iron circulation • Why ferritin levels are often misunderstood • The connection between heavy menstrual bleeding and iron regulation • Nutrients that support iron movement including copper and vitamin A • Cod liver oil, beef liver, and whole food sources of minerals Find Samantha: Click here Find Jess below!
