  • EPI 118:Be Your Own Advocate: The Truth About Cholesterol and Dismissive Doctors
    Sep 2 2025

    Send Me a Text Message

    This episode comes straight from my heart.

    I recently joined my mom at a doctor’s appointment, and what I witnessed left me frustrated, sad, and more determined than ever to speak out. The physician flat-out told us that “lifestyle factors don’t matter” when it comes to cholesterol and quickly pushed prescriptions instead.

    But here’s the truth: lifestyle absolutely matters. What you eat, how you move, how you manage stress, and even how you sleep all impact your heart health.

    In this episode, I share:
    ✅ The story of my mom’s doctor’s visit that sparked this conversation
    ✅ Why lifestyle changes do make a real difference in cholesterol levels
    ✅ 5 simple, science-backed strategies you can start today
    ✅ How to confidently advocate for yourself at the doctor’s office (without feeling dismissed)

    This isn’t about rejecting medicine it’s about empowering yourself to take control of your health and never let anyone tell you your daily choices don’t matter.

    Aug 19 2025

    Send Me a Text Message

    Since starting homeschooling at the end of July, our family has finally found our rhythm mornings filled with lessons, nature walks, and read-aloud, and afternoons packed with soccer practices, art classes, and family time.

    But here’s the thing no one really tells you… as rewarding as homeschooling is, it’s also easy to lose yourself in the shuffle. Between teaching, driving, cooking, and coordinating, your own needs can get pushed to the bottom of the list.

    In this episode, I’m sharing:

    • A behind-the-scenes look at our daily homeschool flow with Adrian (10), Niko (7), and Julian (5)
    • What’s working for me in balancing homeschool, work, and family
    • 4 practical tips to avoid losing yourself in the middle of it all

    Whether you’re a homeschool mom, thinking about making the switch, or just trying to juggle a busy family life, this episode will help you see how you can create a routine that works without forgetting you in the process.

    🎧 Listen now and learn how to protect your energy, keep your passions alive, and build a life that works for your whole family.
