Hannah Dunning: Toxic Fashion, Chemical Exposure, and the Fight for Clean Clothing
Most people think about what they put in their bodies. Almost no one thinks about what they put on them. In this episode, I’m joined by clothing safety advocate and policy reform leader Hannah Dunning, widely known as The Clean Clothing Chick. She’s a leading voice in the clean clothing movement, helping consumers understand the hidden health risks in modern apparel and pushing for transparency in an industry with very little regulation. We discuss how chemicals in clothing interact with the body, why women are disproportionately affected by toxic exposure, the truth behind synthetic fabrics and “sustainable” materials like bamboo, and what’s happening behind the scenes in both fast fashion and luxury brands. We also explore corporate accountability, supply chains, and what the future of clean fashion could look like.

Burnt Out on Being ‘Informed’ - Stop Caring

Burnt Out on Being ‘Informed’ - Stop Caring
I’m talking about something we’re rarely allowed to admit: I don’t care about everything anymore, and choosing that has made me healthier. We’ve been taught that being a “good person” means emotionally absorbing every crisis, headline, and injustice. The result is empathy fatigue, chronic stress, and nervous systems that never get a chance to reset. I unpack why carrying the emotional weight of the world isn’t empathy, it’s ego. Why caring beyond your ability to act is psychologically irrational. How doomscrolling and outrage culture are draining our mental and physical health. And why boundaries are a form of humility, not apathy. We also explore what real nervous system regulation looks like beyond meditation: sleep, blood sugar balance, relationships, attention hygiene, and building a life your body can relax inside. If you’re exhausted by the news cycle, overwhelmed by social media, or craving more peace and clarity, this episode is for you.

From Manifestation to Faith: My Exit From New Age
01/07/2026
From Manifestation to Faith: My Exit From New Age
For a long time, I believed I was waking up and "exiting the matrix." I was involved in New Age spirituality, including astrology, human design, manifestation, psychics, and wellness spaces that promised healing, empowerment, and answers. When I was chronically ill, exhausted, anxious, and desperate for relief, these beliefs felt comforting. They made me feel seen. They made me feel in control. They made me feel powerful. But something was off. In this solo episode, I share my personal journey out of New Age spirituality, including my experience with Medical Medium, psychic culture, manifestation, and spiritual communities in Los Angeles. I talk about how desperation can override discernment, especially when you are suffering. I explore why vague spiritual language feels convincing, how manifestation appears to work, why control is often mistaken for faith, and what finally opened my eyes. I also share how walking away from these beliefs led me to something I had never experienced before: peace. This episode is not about honesty, discernment, and what happens when you stop trying to be your own god and choose surrender instead. If you have ever felt disillusioned, spiritually confused, or exhausted from trying to fix yourself, this conversation is for you.

Austin Tarzan: Why Men Need Sunlight, Grounding, and Emotional Resilience
Austin Tarzan is known for living what he teaches. As the founder of Organic Jaguar, he’s created a line of products — from hair care and deodorant to shower filters and organic cotton boxers — that prove clean living can actually be done right. But his impact extends far beyond products. Austin has become a powerful voice for a generation of men ready to reclaim their health, their strength, and their sense of purpose. A former Marine, he blends discipline with holistic wisdom, challenging the noise in the wellness industry and reminding people that true health is both physical and emotional. He talks openly about inner work, therapy, and how emotional wellness is not about weakness — it’s about becoming a more grounded, resilient man. In this episode, we dive into: Why Austin is almost always barefoot, and what grounding does for the body How sunlight and circadian rhythm practices can radically shift energy, sleep, and hormones The testosterone crisis: why men are struggling and how to reverse it The impact of porn and dopamine on men’s health and relationships Why emotional wellness and inner work are vital for men — and how it builds strength, not weakness The truth about toxins: fragrances, phthalates, synthetic fibers, and hidden disruptors How he approaches red light therapy and other biohacking tools — what works and what’s just hype What “holistic living” really looks like beyond products His long-term mission with Organic Jaguar and the community he’s building This is a raw and honest conversation about health, discipline, masculinity, and the kind of grounded lifestyle that can change the trajectory of an entire generation.

Mollie Engelhart: Debunked by Nature and the Journey from Vegan Chef to Regenerative Farmer
What happens when a lifelong vegan and plant-based chef begins questioning everything she thought she knew about food, farming, and sustainability? Mollie Engelhart’s journey from Sage Vegan Bistro in Los Angeles to Sovereignty Ranch in Texas is as disruptive as it is inspiring. In this episode, Mollie opens up about leaving behind a lifetime of veganism, facing backlash from her own community, and embracing regenerative farming as a path back to nature’s design. We explore why humans are the keystone species in our ecosystem, how death and rebirth play a sacred role on a farm, and why sustainability doesn’t mean what most of us think it does. Mollie also speaks candidly about the reproductive health crisis affecting both men and women, her advocacy for breastfeeding, and what it looks like to raise a family aligned with natural law. Together we question collapse narratives, discuss the traps of efficiency, and imagine a future rooted not in dystopia but in abundance. If you’ve ever wrestled with cultural dogma, wondered how food and farming impact the bigger picture of human health, or wanted to know what it takes to truly live in sync with the land, this conversation is one you don’t want to miss.

Oliver Amdrup from Puori: On Purity, Regulation, and the Future of Supplements
What if the “clean” protein powder in your pantry isn’t so clean after all? In this episode, I sit down with Oliver Amdrup, founder of Puori, to unpack the shocking results of the Clean Label Project’s latest protein powder study. We get into the nitty-gritty of what was actually found — from heavy metals lurking in plant and even organic powders, to why chocolate-based proteins are some of the worst offenders. Oliver breaks down how these contaminants impact your health, why most brands don’t (or won’t) test deeply enough, and what sets truly transparent companies apart.

Sarah Baldwin: Nervous System Healing for the High-Performing and Worn Out
Why do we keep choosing emotionally unavailable partners, striving for perfection, or pushing ourselves to the brink of burnout? In this episode, I'm joined by Sarah Baldwin, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and trauma-informed coach, to explore the nervous system patterns behind perfectionism, anxious overachieving, childhood imprinting, and why we’re often drawn to partners who reflect our earliest wounds.

Sterna Suissa: Raising Emotionally Mature Children and Healing the Child Within YOU
What does it mean to raise a child who trusts themselves while also healing the parts of you that were never given that chance? In this conversation, I sit down with Sterna Suissa, parenting coach and trauma-informed educator, to explore how our own childhood experiences shape the way we show up as parents. We unpack the subtle ways control sneaks in, why respecting a child’s “no” is the foundation for lifelong self-trust, and how to repair when we inevitably miss the mark. And this isn’t just for parents! Even if you don’t have kids, this is a deeply healing conversation about being human. Every single one of us was once a child, raised by people who made mistakes. Sterna’s insights on boundaries, emotional safety, and self-trust will help you reflect on your own upbringing and begin to reparent yourself with more compassion.

Mike Feldstein is back on on the podcast, but this time, we’re not just talking air purifiers.

This conversation will open your eyes to how deeply our environment impacts children, and how a school designed for health first could transform not just learning, but life. Topics we cover: How indoor air quality affects children’s health, focus, and behavior The difference between an air scrubber and a traditional air purifier Ways healthier classroom environments can reduce illness and absenteeism The link between circadian rhythms and cognitive performance Why nature-based education is powerful for kids’ growth and resilience Sponsored by: Jaspr — For a limited time, get $400 off with code CLAUDIA at

Bre Drake | The Dog Health Crisis: Rethinking Vaccines, Kibble, and the Spay/Neuter Narrative
Most dog parents are doing their best—but what if the “normal” routines we’ve been told to follow are actually making our dogs sicker? This week, I’m joined by Bre Drake, holistic pet health educator and founder of , for a no-fluff conversation that challenges the modern pet care model. Bre breaks down how overvaccination, early spay/neuter, kibble, flea meds, and toxic environments are disrupting dogs’ health at the root—and what it looks like to raise a truly resilient dog in today’s world. We talk about her own wake-up call after losing two dogs to cancer, and how that grief fueled her mission to educate and empower others. You’ll walk away with a fresh lens on terrain theory, practical detox tools, and the confidence to ask better questions at the vet’s office. Whether you're new to holistic pet care or you’ve already started questioning the system, this episode will meet you where you are—and give you tools to move forward. What We Cover: The spay/neuter debate: risks, myths, and hormone-sparing alternatives Rethinking the vaccine schedule: titers, immunity, and informed consent Why kibble is keeping dogs inflamed and undernourished The terrain theory approach to Lyme, cancer, and chronic disease Natural strategies for detox, hydration, and nervous system support How to stop outsourcing critical thinking and start advocating from day one Resources: This episode is sponsored by Puori!

Christina O'Connor of Pendulum: Akkermansia and How It Influences the Gut, Mood, and Weight
In this episode, I sit down with Christina O’Connor, RD, Senior Healthcare Account Manager at Pendulum Therapeutics, to explore one of the most fascinating—and overlooked—players in gut health: Akkermansia muciniphila. Christina shares how Pendulum became the first company in the U.S. to commercialize live Akkermansia, a keystone probiotic strain with far-reaching effects on blood sugar, weight, mood, inflammation, and energy. Topics we cover: ✅ How gut health is at the root of not just digestion, but metabolic health, immune resilience, mood, energy, and longevity. ✅ Why live Akkermansia muciniphila — a next-generation probiotic strain Pendulum pioneered — is transforming the way we approach gut and metabolic care. ✅ Why the question people should be asking isn’t “What’s the best probiotic?” — but rather “What probiotic supports metabolic health? Because that’s the best probiotic.” (Hint: the answer is Pendulum.) ✅ How Pendulum is bridging ancient wisdom around gut health with cutting-edge science, backed by clinical studies and rigorous manufacturing. ✅ How caring for the gut can help people better navigate blood sugar balance, cravings, healthy weight, energy, digestion, sleep, and mood. Whether you’re dealing with blood sugar imbalances, unexplained fatigue, emotional ups and downs, or weight plateaus, this episode will expand the way you think about gut health. ✨ Get a discount on your order by using code CLAUDIA at Follow the host, Claudia, on , check out & 100% Organic Castor Oil, and enjoy her deep-dives on

You don’t need more stimulants. You need better blood flow.
