In this episode, I’m sharing the supplements I take in this season of life—and why I take them. I’ll walk you through my non-negotiables, seasonal support, and individualized tools, plus offer thoughts on how to choose what’s right for you instead of being swayed by supplement trends on social media.
You’ll hear a bit about my background in the supplement industry, the role of personalized data (like gut testing), and how I approach this area of wellness with intention—not overwhelm.
💊 Supplements I Mentioned:
These are the ones I take consistently and recommend looking into with a practitioner:
My background in supplement formulation and education
Why omega-3s are essential (even if you eat fish)
Magnesium glycinate vs. other forms
What B-complex really supports (it’s not just energy!)
Why I never leave my gut health to chance
How I use progesterone cream (plus signs it may be needed)
Seasonal support: when and why I take D + K2

📌 Quick Reminder:
Just because something works for me doesn’t mean it’s automatically right for you. Use this episode as a framework to ask better questions—not as a list of things you “should” buy. The best supplement is the one that supports your specific needs in your current season.
