In this episode of the Pretty Well Podcast, we’re diving into the unsung hero of your body — fascia — and more importantly, how to keep it healthy, hydrated, and pain-free. We’ll cover why fascia is way more than just “connective tissue,” and how it actually influences everything from your movement to your emotions.

I’ll also walk you through what a fascia-friendly day of eating looks like so you can start putting this into practice right away — no guesswork required. If you want to feel more supple, less inflamed, and maybe even slow down some of that premature aging, this episode is your guide. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why fascia is the hidden key to your mobility, comfort, and even emotional well-being How to hydrate smarter (mineralized water > endless refills of plain H₂O) The building blocks your fascia thrives on: specific amino acids + collagen support Anti-inflammatory foods that help keep you moving with ease A real-life example of a “fascia-friendly” day on your plate Timestamps: 00:00 – What fascia actually is and why you should care 01:14 – How fascia affects both physical and emotional health 03:45 – Lifestyle + nutrition strategies that keep fascia thriving 10:27 – Hydration hacks: the role of minerals + filtration 17:42 – Protein and collagen: your fascia’s BFFs 23:37 – Polyphenols + Omega-3s for inflammation support 28:53 – A day in the life of fascia-friendly eating 31:32 – Wrapping it all up + next steps LInks & Resources: *As An Amazon Associate I Earn A Small Commission From Qualifying Purchases At No Extra Cost To You* Designs for Health SPMs: https://amzn.to/47HoZlc Bozwelliazyme: https://amzn.to/4nrCv0T    👇 If You Like These Podcasts, You’ll Also Love Ours: The Dr. Josh Axe Show Wellness Mama Just Ingredients Podcast The Model Health Show Dr. Mark Hyman’s Podcast   💥 Join the conversation: Share your thoughts with us on social media or in the comments! 🎙 Subscribe, Share & Review: If you loved this episode, please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

Does Face Yoga Actually Slow Aging? The Surprising Truth

Does Face Yoga Actually Slow Aging? The Surprising Truth

#171  - Does Face Yoga Actually Slow Aging? The Surprising Truth Is it possible to tone and lift your face without fillers, surgery, or a drawer full of pricey serums? According to face yoga experts—and growing research—it just might be. In this episode of Pretty Well, we’re diving into what face yoga actually is, how it works, and why it’s being called the natural alternative to injectables. I break down the science behind aging skin, fascia, and facial muscle atrophy (it wasn’t going to happen to us, I know), and how regular facial exercises may support lymphatic drainage, collagen production, circulation, and that elusive youthful glow. We’ll also talk about what face yoga can’t fix—and what foundational habits actually make the biggest difference in skin health (great news: it’s not another serum). Plus, I share the underrated clinical pearl I’ve been using on my own skin with surprisingly great results. If you love natural beauty, anti-aging strategies, and simple habits that make a real difference, you’ll love this episode. Tune in—and maybe even snap a few “before” photos. Your cheekbones may thank you later. Join the conversation: Share your thoughts with us on social media or in the comments!

You’re Not Weak—You’re Biochemically Wired to Crave Sugar (Here’s How to Break Free)

You’re Not Weak—You’re Biochemically Wired to Crave Sugar (Here’s How to Break Free)

#170  - You’re Not Weak—You’re Biochemically Wired to Crave Sugar (Here’s How to Break Free) Ever wonder why quitting sugar feels harder than giving up coffee, carbs... or your will to live? In this episode of Pretty Well, I sit down with Mike Collins—founder of SugarAddiction.com and known as “The Sugar Free Man”—to unpack the hidden ways sugar addiction is wrecking your gut health, hormones, brain chemistry, and mood. We dive into how sugar hijacks your biochemistry, fuels inflammation, disrupts hormonal balance, and keeps your body stuck in a vicious cycle of cravings, fatigue, and blood sugar crashes. Mike shares how early childhood sugar exposure, emotional eating patterns, and even “healthy” foods are quietly feeding the addiction—and why going sugar-free isn't about willpower, it’s about rewiring your brain. If you’ve ever said, “I’m fine, I just have a sweet tooth,” while polishing off a bag of “organic” cookies, this one’s for you. Because it’s not about giving up joy—it’s about taking your health (and your energy) back. Your mitochondria will thank you.   Mike's Website: https://sugaraddiction.com/ Social:  https://www.facebook.com/QuitSugarNow https://www.youtube.com/@SugarAddiction https://www.facebook.com/groups/sugardetox.sugaraddiction.supportgoup https://twitter.com/Sugar_Free_Man https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-mike-collins-57a5628a/  Join the conversation: Share your thoughts with us on social media or in the comments!

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) & Sneaky Health Symptoms with Dr. David Clarke, MD

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) & Sneaky Health Symptoms with Dr. David Clarke, MD

#169  - Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) & Sneaky Health Symptoms with Dr. David Clarke, MD What if your chronic symptoms aren’t just “in your body”… but are being generated by your brain? In this episode of Pretty Well, I’m sitting down with Dr. David Clarke, MD—author, speaker, and president of the Association for Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms—to dive into a game-changing topic most doctors aren’t even talking about: how stress, trauma, and repressed emotions can drive real, physical illness. We’re breaking down what neuroplastic symptoms are, how adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) silently program your health later in life, and why you might feel terrible even when your lab tests are “normal.” (Fun fact: the brain can cause real pain, gut issues, migraines, and autoimmune symptoms—and no, it’s not "just in your head.") You’ll learn why understanding the mind-body connection isn’t about blaming yourself—it’s about finally getting real answers that actually lead to healing. If you’re tired of dead-end doctor visits, bandaid treatments, and feeling like a medical mystery, this episode might be the lightbulb moment you’ve been waiting for. Because healing isn’t just possible—it might be closer than you think. LInks & Resources: Join the conversation: Share your thoughts with us on social media or in the comments!

Do This FIRST to Slow Aging at the Cellular Level

Do This FIRST to Slow Aging at the Cellular Level

#168 - Do This FIRST to Slow Aging at the Cellular Level   If your energy is tanked, your skin looks older, and your brain feels like it’s buffering—don’t blame age, blame your cellular energy. Your mitochondria have shifted into slow gear to protect you. In fact, mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the 12 Hallmarks of Aging.    In this episode of Pretty Well, I’m breaking down how these tiny energy factories inside your cells control everything from how you age to how well you think, move, and recover.   We talking 9 evidence-based (must-know) hacks to protect your mitochondria and even boost mitochondrial biogenesis (fancy for “make more of the good stuff”) so that you can slow and even reverse signs of aging.   From red light therapy and fasting options to specific nutrients and why your mitochondria love colorful veggies more than you do—this is the anti-aging roadmap you actually want to follow.   No gimmicks, no powders, no $400 serums. Just real tools to feel younger, stronger, and sharper from the inside out. Because getting older is inevitable—but aging tired, inflamed, and foggy is not.

What Do Your Feelings Have To Do With Your Gut Health? with Miriam Jacobson​

#167  - What Do Your Feelings Have To Do With Your Gut Health? with Miriam Jacobson​ What does unresolved trauma have to do with your nagging health symptoms? In this episode of Pretty Well, I sit down with Miriam Jacobson, a triple board-certified functional medicine dietitian and founder of Every Body Bliss. Miriam shares her story of losing her father in 9/11 to surviving breast cancer.  This eye-opening conversation reveals the hidden link between trauma, gut health, and hormones. We’re unpacking: ✨ Why your symptoms might actually be unprocessed emotions in disguise ✨ The gut–trauma connection that keeps women stuck in cycles of fatigue, bloating, and imbalance ✨ Why diets fail (and what actually heals) ✨ How to finally reconnect with your body so you can feel strong, radiant, and at peace If you’ve tried “all the things” and still don’t feel like yourself, this conversation could be the missing link.

Beyond Functional Medicine: Why Most Health Experts Can't Help Complex Chronic Illnesses with Dr. Mel Hopper Koppelman

Beyond Functional Medicine: Why Most Health Experts Can't Help Complex Chronic Illnesses with Dr. Mel Hopper Koppelman

#166  - Beyond Functional Medicine: Why Most Health Experts Can't Help Complex Chronic Illnesses with Dr. Mel Hopper Koppelman   What if your chronic complex health issues aren’t about needing more supplements or a new practitioner… but from a nervous system that’s been stuck in survival mode since childhood? In this episode of Pretty Well, I’m joined by Mel Hopper Koppelman—an expert in neurological healing who’s helping patients finally get better after functional medicine has failed.  We talk about the overlooked role of retained primitive reflexes, how childhood stress rewires adult health, and why your gut might still be leaky decades later (hint: it started long before gluten showed up). Mel breaks down why some people never fully heal from chronic fatigue, autoimmunity, mold toxicity, and even trauma—and what to do about it. You'll learn about the Cell Danger Response, what it means to truly “regulate your nervous system,” and why green smoothies might not be doing you any favors. Mel also unpacks in detail the 4 Stage Process of Recovering from Complex Chronic Health Issues.  If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the right things and still not getting better, this episode might flip everything you thought you knew about healing.   Connect with Mel: Website https://essays.synthesishealth.co/mel-hopper-koppelman/ Social https://www.instagram.com/synthesishealth.co/  https://www.facebook.com/melkoppelmanacupuncture    Join the conversation: Share your thoughts with us on social media or in the comments!
