Catch-Up: Parasite Cleanse, Heli Skiing, Dream Sauna & Gentle Parenting (Ep. 64)
Episode 64
Wednesday, 1 April, 2026
What does it actually look like to live a holistic wellness lifestyle? This week, we pull back the curtain — worms, cliffs, and toddler head-butts included. We are back with a full catch-up episode covering real life in the functional wellness world. Jensen is mid-parasite cleanse with results she didn't see coming. Lacey survived heli-skiing in Revelstoke and finally got her dream backyard sauna. And Kira is navigating the chaos of gentle parenting with a toddler who gives as good as she gets. Plus: why GLP-1 supplements while breastfeeding are a hard no, the moon's role in parasite activity, and building a personal brand in the health space. Key Takeaways Don't jump into a parasite cleanse unprepared. If your drainage pathways aren't open, your minerals are depleted, or you haven't addressed your gut environment, parasites will come back — and you'll have wasted your money. Gentle parenting isn't passive parenting. Holding natural consequences with a highly emotionally intelligent child takes serious nervous system regulation. Repeat yourself on social media. No one remembers what they saw yesterday. You become known for a topic by saying the same thing 50 times — not by constantly creating new content.
