Ep. 152: Are you lying to yourself about holistic health
In this episode we chat about how when you first got into holistic health you wanted to be healthier, take care of your body, and because you know holistic health creates health and the traditional medical model doesn't. But somehow you ended up stressed, fearful, overwlemed and all consumed with holistic health. And you want to know how did you get here and how do you get out but still follow this natural health lifestyle. This episode is here to help you. You can have knowledge, information and use wisdom on how to create balance in your health. We talk about Balancing holistic health and the western medical model Only worrying what you have agency over Simplifying (and how you can do that in this complex health world) Finding more fun and joy What is motivating your health choices (I get passionate about this one becuase this is something I have recently discovered for myself). Are you lying to yourself thinking that you are in this lovely balanced place and healing but you're really stressed out and controlled by fear in your health decisions? This podcast is to help you figure that out.

Ep. 151: Mini episodes are here... Voxer Chats with Dr. Meghan
Hey friend- I haven't put out a podcast in a long time and I thought this chapter of podcasting was over because they take so much time. But sometimes we neeed to clear our mind and ask if we can do things differently. And that is where this podcast idea was born. I want to put out mini episodes, like you and I are chatting on Voxer. They will be short and sweet (15-25 minutes) and will allow me to go into a little more details versus IG stories. And you can listen on your phone anywhere and play it on 1.25x speed. Let me know what you think and what topics you want me to share about simplifying your health! If you aren't already, follow me on

Ep. 147: My Experience With Continuous Glucose Monitoring.
Having good blood sugar balance is so important for our health. Balancing my blood sugar is something I have been working on for the last 6 months to a year. Now that I know my blood sugar better, I have seen improvements in my health and sleep. I wish I would have done more to balance my blood sugar earlier in my health journey. I have used the traditional finger prick method for testing blood sugar and recommend it. I had the opportunity to try out a continuous monitor and it was so interesting to collect that data and compare to the finger prick method. I do want to clarify, when we talk about blood sugar, we are not talking about diabetes. Your body can need more blood sugar balance without any symptoms of diabetes. We are looking at functional levels of blood glucose.

Living a healthy or holistic lifestyle can be overwhelming. There is so many things you can implement and try and it is easy to feel like everyone else has it more figured out than you do.

In this episode, I want to share 10 things I wish I would have know when I first started living this healthy lifestyle. I have learned a lot along the way and made some mistakes but those mistakes taught me things and got me to where I am today. I hope this episode is helpful to you in your healthy living journey and that you can avoid some of the mistakes that I made along the way.

Ep. 142: Is It All in Your Head? No! There's an Explanation
If you have been living with chronic illness or symptoms it is likely that you have heard "It's all in your head" from a doctor before. If you have heard this, I know that you are not making this up. Doctors are often times will say this because what you are describing doesn't fit in their diagnosis box or have they don't have a pharmaceutical to fix it. We are going to dive deep into your brain and nervous system and how interconnected everything is. We are also going to look to the Bible. The Lord give us wisdom when it comes to our health in the Bible.

Ep. 141: Homeopathy with Jennie Hoglund, CCH
In this episode, I am interviewing Jennie Hoglund about Homeopathy. Jennie is a graduate of the 4-year Classical Homeopathy training program at Northwestern Academy of Homeopathy in Minneapolis, MN, and is now a classroom teacher and clinic supervisor at NAH. She is also an Integrative Provider with Pregnancy and Postpartum Support MN, and has a special interest in clients with postpartum mood disorders. Additionally, Jennie holds the CCH credential (Certified Classical Homeopath) through the Council for Homeopathic Certification, a national organization. Homeopathy is something I have used a little bit in our home and something I have always wanted to be more knowledgeable about. Homeopathy is something that comes under the umbrella of holistic or natural. As a chiropractor, we didn't have specific training in homeopathy. Homeopathy involves using diluted doses of natural substances to stimulate a healing response in the body. The word homeopathy means like cures like. There are over 5000 homeopathic remedies. Listen to learn more about how to start using homeopathies in your home.

Ep 140: What Is the Root Cause of All Health Issues?
The healthcare system today primarily looks at and treats symptoms. They never ask the questions to dig deeper to figure out the most fundamental cause of symptoms or illness. It is just bandaid fix after bandaid fix without actually getting to the root cause of the problem. You won't be able to heal unless you get to the root of the problem. In healing, we want to dig deep and ask why to get to the root cause of our symptoms. If we can heal the foundation, that will help the symptoms to go away. We want to pull back the onion. Keep asking "Why?" And truly find the source of our symptoms. I hope this episode is encouraging to you to get to the root cause of your symptoms. Keep asking "why?".

Ep. 139 What Is the Best Diet for You?
In today's culture we hear conflicting information on how we should be eating. We hear this diet or that diet is superior and will help you achieve all your health goals. Then on the other side we hear the opposite. That you don't need a particular diet to be healthy. And you can be healthy at any size. This just leads to an unhealthy mindset around food. Food is good and so nourishing for your body. It is important to have a good mindset around food. You can decide to eat well and it doesn't have to be linked to a particular diet. Listening to your body and knowing your current physiology is important when it comes to diet. I believe that food freedom is so important and can drive health. I hope this episode is encouraging to you wherever your are in your health journey.

Ep. 128: Simple Lifestyle Tips to Reduce EMF Exposure Right Now
Electro Magnetic Frequency (EMF) or Electro Magnetic Radiation (EMR) are all around us and figuring out how to reduce our exposure to them can seem overwhelming. Since we can’t see EMFs, we tend to do nothing to shield ourselves from them, when in reality, there’s a lot we can do. I’m offering some practical tips that you can start today in your home to reduce your EMF exposure and help protect your family. There is biological evidence that EMFs can cause or be a contributing factor to decreasing your immune functions, stress functions, ADHD, fertility, DNA damage and much more. With EMFs being everywhere you look, from wifi in a bus to bluetooth everything, it’s important that you are armed with power and are educated in what you can do to protect yourself. The more you can do to take a burden off your body, so you don’t feel so bogged down by interference, the better it is.
