1014. What’s Hiding in Our Sushi & How to Meal Prep Like A Pro with Christina Gomes
Sushi lovers, listen up! Because you’re going to want to hear this! In part 2 of our chat with wellness and nutrition expert, Christina Gomes, we are uncovering the shocking secrets hiding beneath the scales of the #1 Japanese dish. Christina also gives us her proven grocery list that will help keep cortisol levels down, regulate your metabolism, and help you feel amazing! She’s also sharing her genius, time-saving meal prep hacks- how to super fast and the nutritious method to making smoothies in the morning. She has us snacking like a nutritional expert! Did you know you should snack before bed to have the best sleep ever? Yup, this episode is full of useful and practical tips to help you level up your health journey. Don’t get too hungry, but enjoy this one Squad!HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:
Most fish, like sushi, carry parasites, because of the way that the US mass produces food, but you can make your gut more stronger, acidic and resilient to parasites with proper eating by eating things like garlic, pumpkin seeds and papaya seeds.
When it comes to meal prepping, plan for success: Frozen is just as good as fresh. It traps all the nutrients and stops the micronutrients from depleting as the veggies decay.
Two things you need to do for your nutrition: Have a small snack that is rich in carbohydrates and protein first thing in the morning and right before bed. This will help lower your cortisol first thing in the morning before caffeine intake, and help you produce more melatonin at night to sleep better.

1013. Mastering Women’s Health: Hormones, Guts & Smarter Workouts with Wellness Expert Christina Gomes
Hello Heal Squad! If you haven’t started crushing your 2025 goals, this episode will fire you up to make this your healthiest year yet. Today, Maria’s trainer, Christina Gomes, joins the squad to share game-changing insights on balancing nutrition and training during perimenopause, menopause, and even when it’s that time of the month. She’s unveiling the ultimate health plan to lower cortisol, balance hormones, and manage weight without over doing it. You’ll learn how to ditch the high-intensity workouts that might be doing more harm than good, and which exercises are highly effective for the always fluctuating women’s body.Plus, we’re diving deep into gut health essentials—like the must-have foods to fuel your body and improve nutrient absorption. If you’ve been craving a reset or feeling out of sync with your body, this episode is your sign to take charge and thrive in 2025. Enjoy!HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:
Higher intensity exercises are doing you more harm than good. Yes, you can lose weight with HIIT, but it will cause more stress on your body, which impacts your overall metabolism.
Women specifically suffer more from elevated cortisol levels, especially as they age, because their ability to resist cortisol and deal with stress is going to decline as our estrogen and progesterone decline. If you do have lower estrogen levels, there are certain foods that you can eat that can actually help us continue to produce a little bit more estrogen.
Your ability to absorb nutrients is going to heavily rely on the healthiness of your gut and your gut lining. A diet rich in fiber will ensure that your gut stays strong and healthy to absorb essential vitamins and nutrients.

Lonely Guy Friday Ep. 204: Lessons (if any) from the LA Fire
How for decades LA has been a reactive city and how the fires are no exception - AND nothing new. How we are reactive in our own daily lives and the reminder to be proactive. How we trip over the same extension cords, everyday, and the need for vigilance against that. How charities use donations for administrative costs and the best place and means to donate. The first thing most people lament about losing during disasters and this simple app and practice to avoid the loss. Haven't practiced any new year's resolutions or better haven't even had time to come up with any? How many of us are stuck right now and why we shouldn't feel bad.
