SATIATE

Something you should know about me:  I am a recovering busy body. I have spent the majority of my life rushing, pushing myself, focusing on my productivity and feeling the pull of the ever present hamster wheel. I could blame it on my many years of competitive sports, single parenting or entrepreneurship, but according to my mother, I came out of the womb like this. Recently, I caught myself in a relapse...because old patterns tend to die hard. That said, as I get older, I am learning more and more how to catch these mini-set backs swiftly. Life has taught me a lot about what it takes for me to show up most fully for myself and for the people in my life. Rather than the hamster wheel approach to life, how about the much more enticing magic carpet ride? Listen and learn how I find my magic carpet amid it all.

I have an extra potent podcast episode with my friend Kimberly Ann Johnson to share with you today. Her new book, Call Of The Wild ~ How We Heal Trauma, Awaken Our Own Power and Use It For Good, is hitting the shelves April 15th! Kimberly helps women learn to speak their body’s language and transmute trauma into positive, reparative experiences in the present. When it comes to tending to our trauma and healing, she is the first person I turn to for insight. This episode could not be more timely, and I am relieved to be able share this important and supportive conversation with you today. You can find out all about her at: https://kimberlyannjohnson.com/

Ep. 38 :: Bring Your Body To The Table {with Dr. Alan Fogel} by Sue Van Raes

I have a brand new episode on the podcast today that will surely re-ignite your path to cooking and eating beautiful food. Caitlin Greene (of @starinfinitefood) is such a love, and you can really see how much passion and care she puts into her food if you care to scroll through her IG page. We had such a great time talking all things food and healing on SATIATE. When I met Caitlin Greene, I new I had found just some #foodspiration.  Her 240k+ instagram platform is dense with stunning and enticing food artistry like no other.  After finding her and becoming social media friends (that’s a thing now 😉) I started making some of her recipes and I could not NOT share her with all of you. Additionally, Caitlin began her platform from the get go to heal her relationship to food and her body.

Jennifer Racioppi's approach to astrology and cosmic health is like nothing I have ever known. She promotes a grounded and science-based system using the rhythms and cycles of the universe (including the solar and lunar cycles) –– so we can cultivate our inner power and use it for good. In honor of this weeks full moon (and your lunar health) have a listen to this weeks brand new podcast episode. I am thrilled to have Jennifer Racioppi joining me on SATIATE today. You can find her at https://jenniferracioppi.com/ and be sure to check out her her new book Cosmic Health!

Today's brand new episode is with my dear friend and cacao specialist, Helen Knight.  Helen and I have worked together for years, and I have watched her claim, grow and become an expert in her work leading Cacao ceremonies both locally and internationally. We talk all about Cacao, why it is traditionally used in ceremony, how to do your own home cacao ceremony and all the details about her Valentine's day global cacao ceremony (which I will happily be attending on zoom!) I can't wait for you to listen, and of course, let me know if you plan to join her this weekend so I can wave at you across my screen while we sip cacao in ceremony.

Today's episode features special guest, Livia Shapiro. Livia is a fresh and radically honest voice in the field of somatic psychology and yoga. Livia just launched her brand new book: The Somatic Therapy Workbook ~ Stress Relieving Exercises for Strengthening the Mind-Body Connection and Sparking Emotional and Physical Healing. I can't wait for you to hear how we jam about health, healing, yoga, embodiment and food. Listen to the end if you can, my favorite part is the last ten minutes. It was SOOO good that I plan to have her back for a part II! You can find her and her book here: http://ecstaticunfoldment.com/

Listen to Danielle Ryan Broida, the National Educator for Four Sigmatic, teach us all about the wonderful world of fungi! Even though the world has been topsy turvy lately, our world can still be filled with everyday (mushroom) magic. Meet some shroom favorites: Ever heard of Chaga, Reishi or Lion’s Mane? Gathered from all over the world, these slightly-secret ingredients have been helping people seize the day (and their health) for centuries.

I have an awesome New Years episode for you today with special guest, Jo Schaalman, co-founder of the Conscious Cleanse. Listen and learn about the co-founders Jo and Jules, how their dynamic program came about, the deets on their brand new cookbook, and how they bring the 'conscious' into the Conscious Cleanse.

While many of us have been forced to be home more than ever, that is not the case for my dear friend and client. Dr. Liz Gwinn is a trauma surgeon from Chicago who works on the front lines with some of the most challenging cases out there in a level 1 trauma center. As you can imagine, Dr. Gwinn has been working on overdrive all year! In this episode of SATIATE Dr. Liz Gwinn shares her real-time experience of being at the hospital each day through out the pandemic –– and what she has learned in the process. I like to bring you a variety of conversation, truth talks, and well-being ingredients to feed your body and soul on the podcast, and in my work in general. This episode is a truth telling that I feel will help inform how we continue to take care of ourselves and each other while we stay strong and positive throughout the pandemic. I hope you enjoy this important episode.
