    Ep 18 | Butter, Bacteria, and B******t: A Wellness Deep-Dive

    What if healing didn’t have to be complicated? In this episode, of The Bro Sessions, my baby bro and I take it all the way back—to the gut, to the Bible, to the basics. We unpack what real health looks like when you stop outsourcing your intuition and start trusting what’s been true all along: 🥛 Raw milk 🧈 Butter 🍞 Sourdough 🧂 Salt 🍯 Honey - and a big helping of BS we’ve had to unlearn. We talk gut health, probiotics, iron levels, hormone suppressants (and how they might be suppressing more than just your hormones), intuitive living, medical gaslighting, and what it takes to break free from systems that benefit from our disconnection. This is one for the misfits, the questioners, the ones tired of being sick, tired, and confused. Thanks for tuning in to Random Thoughts - Some Useful with your host, Jen!

    EP 17 | Bringing Her Home: A Calf and a Legacy

    A Sweet Welcome Home & The Legacy of Regenerative Farming In today’s episode of Random Thoughts – Some Useful, I’m sharing one of those grounding, soul-stirring moments—being present as my dear friends brought home their very first baby dairy calf. There’s something sacred about witnessing trust begin to form, especially in a scared animal who chooses to lean in and love anyway. But this isn’t just about a sweet calf. We dive into what it really means to return to the land, honor legacy, and nourish future generations with regenerative practices—like raw milk, ethical stewardship, and healing through food. This is a conversation about roots. About remembering what matters. And about how choosing a different way to live—slower, simpler, and more sustainable—can be one of the most powerful revolutions of our time. So if you’ve ever felt the pull to reconnect, reset, or just breathe deeper… this one’s for you.
