On this episode of Everything’s Messy Podcast I am joined by bestie of, gulp, 3 decades Channa Duboff. We’ve zigged and zagged through life with different worldviews and still meet in the middle with a friendship that’s strong, honest, and hilariously messy. 🥰

Channa, mom, wife, and an ICU nurse who’s currently heading back to school to become a nurse practitioner. We dig into what the medical field has taught her beyond textbooks—how every body is different, why good foundations matter, and what it looks like to advocate for patients in a system that often prefers tidy boxes over real-life nuance.

From there, we dive into lifestyle medicine—mind and body. Stress management comes first (or at least early!), and sometimes it’s as simple as stepping into a stairwell for ten slow breaths. We chat about social media pressure, giving ourselves grace, and choosing progress over perfection. Then we get practical: why steady-state cardio + strength training can coexist, how body-weight moves count, why bone density matters as we age, and why “I don’t want to look like a bodybuilder” isn’t a reason to skip the weights. 🏋️‍♀️🚶‍♀️

We get spicy about “cougar puberty” (hi, perimenopause 👋), and laugh our way through real talk on hot yoga, breathwork, red-light therapy, acupuncture wins, and why inflammation + gut imbalance sit at the root of so much chronic illness. Lifestyle changes aren’t punishment—they’re freedom.

And now… the exciting announcement you’ve been waiting for! 🎉

I’m launching a brand-new show with Channa: Truth & Pink—for the women no one’s talking about. We’re Gen X/Xennial, still cool, still loud, still here, and very much not fading into the background. Expect unfiltered chats on midlife, family, fashion, beauty, wellness (hello, “emotional support water bottle”), money talk, and “cougar puberty”—with sass and sisterhood. Pink isn’t just a color—it’s a state of mind. 💗

Join our live premiere on YouTube on September 23 (from Las Vegas!) and catch new episodes every Tuesday wherever you listen. Follow us on Instagram and TikTok @truthandpink, and subscribe on YouTube at Truth and Pink. Come laugh, eye-roll, cry, and exhale with us—one unapologetic, laugh-out-loud conversation at a time.

SO, grab your coffee, your wine, or your emotional support water bottle and let’s do this. 🥂
