Naturally Nourished Episode 475: Kicking the year off right! 5 ways to feel your BEST this year
Are you ready to feel grounded, energized, and confident in your wellness this year? Are you tired of starting January with restriction instead of nourishment? Do you want habits that actually stick and support your metabolism, hormones, and mental health? In this episode, Ali and Becki kick off the new year by sharing five foundational ways to invest in your wellness so your routines feel craveworthy, not forced. We discuss how pleasure, satisfaction, and real food are essential for sustainability, how to navigate cravings without shame, and why creating routines your body desires leads to lasting change.
We also dive into supporting detox pathways, balancing blood sugar, and understanding how hormonal shifts—especially changes in estrogen—impact insulin sensitivity and metabolism as women age. Ali and Becki cover practical strategies for metabolic flexibility, the role of gratitude in nervous system and metabolic regulation, and why getting outside daily may be one of the most powerful (and overlooked) tools for stress resilience and healing.

This episode is sponsored by the Naturally Nourished Food-as-Medicine Keto Reset.
Our Keto Reset is a 12-week, real-food, functional medicine–based program designed to help you lower insulin, improve metabolic flexibility, and address the root causes behind stubborn weight loss, hormone imbalance, gut dysfunction, and chronic inflammation. Unlike traditional keto plans, this program focuses on macronutrient strategy over calorie obsession, antioxidant density, therapeutic foods, and high-quality sourcing—while eliminating ultra-processed foods and non-caloric sweeteners. The goal isn’t restriction or perfection, but teaching your body how to burn fat efficiently while feeling nourished and supported.
Throughout the program, you’ll learn how to personalize your approach using sliding-scale protocols, understand how stress, hormones, and blood sugar influence metabolism, and build sustainable habits that lead to true food freedom. With weekly live classes, Q&As, and access to Ali and Becki’s combined 20+ years of functional medicine experience, the Keto Reset is designed to work with your physiology—not against it—so you can finally feel confident, clear, and in control of your health.
