| Can AI Check Your Moles? How to Spot Skin Cancer Early and How Much Sunscreen Is Enough | EP240 | 05 Nov 2026 | 00:49:42 | |
Can a quick AI search tell you whether that new mole is worth a trip to the doctor? Dr. Antony Nakhla has seen how AI can get that assessment wrong in both directions. Real skin cancer prevention starts with knowing what to look for and when to act. On Wellness Junkies, Amy Sherman talks with Dr. Nakhla, a double board-certified dermatologist, dermatologic surgeon, author, scientist, and innovator. Amy has had nearly ten basal cell carcinomas herself, so she brings firsthand experience and plenty of questions. Dr. Nakhla shares the warning signs that should send you to a dermatologist and explains why the sun you got before age 20 matters more than most people realize. Then they get practical. Dr. Nakhla walks through a simple rule for how much sunscreen to apply to your face and body, and why the number on the bottle matters less than you might expect. He also settles whether your SPF makeup counts, when Mohs surgery is the right call, and why choosing the right specialist for skin cancer removal matters. Stay for the skincare tips near the end. Dr. Nakhla shares an eye cream hack you probably haven’t tried, plus his take on whether a stronger retinoid gets you better results. Press play for wellness tips you can use before your next day in the sun and a smarter plan for skin cancer prevention that fits real life.

| What Genetic Testing Can (and Cannot) Tell You About Your Health: A Genetic Counselor Explains | EP239 | 29 Oct 2026 | 00:44:54 | |
You eat the yogurt, take the probiotic and sit in the sauna. You still feel off. Genetic testing may help explain why some of the healthy habits you trust may be working against your body. Amy Sherman sits down with Natalie Samson, a Licensed Certified Genetic Counselor and founder of Golden Genetics, on this week’s Wellness Junkies. Natalie shares the story of a patient who spent thousands of dollars on gut specialists and supplements before genetic testing revealed a possible reason for her symptoms. Some of the habits she counted as healthy were part of the problem. Natalie also walks through her four-P framework and how it can support better health and quality of life as you age. If you live with vestibular migraine, Natalie describes the genetic patterns her clinic has observed and the research she has underway. She breaks down why mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) and POTS so often show up together, and why other connective tissue disorders belong on the list to rule out. Amy and Natalie then get into the MTHFR gene, the B12 timing mistake that kept one patient awake at night and why a single test can guide your choices for years. Press play for wellness tips built around your own DNA. You will hear what genetic testing can tell you, what it cannot, and the three supplement basics Natalie suggests most people consider before they chase the next trend.

| Clean Beauty Isn’t Always Clean, and Your Skincare Routine Is Probably Too Complicated | EP238 | 22 Oct 2026 | 00:39:51 | |
“Clean” on the front of a jar can mean almost anything. There is no standardized regulatory definition of “clean” for cosmetics, so clean skincare can still carry synthetic fragrance, dyes, and parabens under a pretty label. If you have ever stood in a store unsure which claims to trust, start here. Amy Sherman sits down with Karen Behnke on Wellness Junkies. Karen founded Juice Beauty in 2005, served as a founding member of Ulta’s Conscious Beauty board, and was recognized by Elle, Forbes, and Cosmopolitan for helping build the clean beauty movement. Her fourth company, Beauty Crush Skincare, grows its grapes on her organic vineyard in Sonoma. Karen shares the free tool she uses to check skincare ingredients and the “made without” claim that still misleads her close friends. She explains what regenerative skincare means for your skin barrier and why her own skin stopped tolerating harsh exfoliants in her 50s and 60s. You will also learn what separates real clinical testing from a simple “tested” label and how to spot a third-party seller on Amazon before you buy. Tired of 10-step beauty routines? Karen breaks down the three steps she believes most women need and the one product category she can’t live without. Press play for clean skincare and skincare tips you can use the next time you shop, plus Karen’s beauty tips for getting out the door in five minutes.

If you're 40+, bone health probably feels like a problem for later. Then a DEXA scan at 50 comes back with osteopenia and osteoporosis, even after years of heavy lifting and HRT. That is exactly what happened to Amy Sherman, and it sent her looking for answers. On Wellness Junkies, Amy sits down with Dr. Kristi Tough DeSapri, a board-certified internist and founder of Bone and Body Women's Health. Dr. DeSapri is a national leader in osteoporosis and menopause care. She explains why women should be thinking about bone health well before 65, when an earlier DEXA scan makes sense, and what T-scores and Z-scores actually tell you. She shares the wellness tips she gives patients who love walking and swimming but skip impact work, the simple blood and urine workup that uncovers a hidden cause of bone loss about a third of the time, and the wellness routines she follows herself. Her wellness product recommendations come with a warning about buying supplements on Amazon and why third-party testing matters. She also weighs in on collagen, creatine, and the trends social media keeps pushing. Wellness Junkies is one of the best wellness podcasts for women who want real answers without the panic. Press play to learn how women can protect their bone health long before a fracture forces the conversation.

| The 15-Minute Fix for Decluttering Your Home | Wellness Tips for a Calm Home | EP236 | 08 Oct 2026 | 00:55:52 | |
If you open a closet and feel your shoulders tighten, there is a reason. Studies link clutter and cortisol, the body's main stress hormone. That means the pile on the kitchen counter may be adding to the weight you carry every day. Decluttering your home is one of the few wellness levers fully in your control, and it can start smaller than you think. One drawer and a timer might be enough. On Wellness Junkies, Amy Sherman sits down with Shira Gill, organizing expert and bestselling author of Minimalista, Organized Living, and LifeStyled. Shira hears one word in nearly every email she gets, and it says a lot about clutter and mental health. She also explains why she doesn't believe in organized or disorganized people, and why your home organization plan should not begin at the Container Store. You'll hear the 15-minute win Shira uses to get anyone moving, plus the one question she says beats "could this be useful?" She shares how she handled an entire house full of her late father's belongings and decided what was truly meaningful enough to keep, and the room she suggests starting with first. Amy also gets honest about her two nemeses, mail and a bathroom full of products, and Shira offers practical wellness tips for both. Press play if you're ready to start decluttering your home without the overwhelm and build a calm home that gives you energy back.

| Manifestation Is Not a Vision Board (It Goes Way Deeper) | Astrology and Wellness Tips | EP235 | 01 Oct 2026 | 00:51:26 | |
You have the title, the team, and the income. So why does it still feel like something is in the way? Brett Chinn says the answer usually lives in a belief you picked up years ago, and astrology can help you find it. Brett is an intuitive business coach and manifestation expert who also works as an astrologer, medium, and tarot reader. She spent two decades in executive search before she started to help leaders 40+ close the gap between who they are and who they want to be. On Wellness Junkies, she joins host Amy Sherman for one of those relatable wellness conversations that make manifestation feel less like wishful thinking and more like getting honest about your beliefs, identity, and what you think is possible for you. So where do you start? Brett shares why mindfulness comes first, how to catch the thoughts that quietly become beliefs, and a low-stakes manifestation test for skeptics. She explains how astrology can offer another way to understand yourself, then puts it into practice with a live reading of Amy's birth chart and a warning about those general horoscopes you might want to stop reading. The wrap session brings wellness tips and wellness hacks worth stealing. Brett explains the 20/80 rule she uses to avoid burnout and shares beauty product recommendations she keeps rebuying, from the eyelash curler she swears by to the under-eye patches that rescue her after a bad night. Press play to spot the belief quietly running your life and learn how to change it.

| The Summit for the Wellness Curious (and the Wellness Obsessed) with Eudemonia founder Sean Hoess | EP234 | 24 Sep 2026 | 00:41:41 | |
Wellness tips are everywhere right now, and most of them contradict each other. Amy Sherman sits down with Sean Hoess, founder and CEO of Eudēmonia Summit, for a conversation about what is actually worth trying and what is just noise. Sean co-founded Wanderlust, which grew to 65 events around the world, before he walked away and started something new. He explains the moment he decided the wellness space needed more evidence and less blind faith, and why that belief shaped every part of Eudēmonia from day one. Amy and Sean get into the areas of wellness Sean thinks deserve more attention, from oral health to the products and materials we use at home. He shares his honest take on what may be overhyped and what he actually finds useful, from red light masks to robotic massage, plus the one very unwellness habit he refuses to give up. They also talk about why taking your health into your own hands does not mean going it alone, and why Sean built an entire summit around the idea that wellness works better as a team sport. Stick around for his take on what we can learn from athletes like Tom Brady when it comes to longevity, recovery, and staying at the top of your game. Press play for wellness tips and wellness hacks you can actually use, and see for yourself why Wellness Junkies keeps showing up as one of the best wellness podcasts for women.

| Not Sponsored, Just Obsessed: A Product Junkies Deep Dive | EP233 | 17 Sep 2026 | 00:45:33 | |
Some products live up to the hype. Most don't. This episode sorts out which is which. Host Amy Sherman sits down with Katie Georges, a lifestyle and beauty content creator known for her honest beauty and wellness product roundups on Instagram and TikTok. Katie built her audience by testing things herself and telling people the truth about what actually works, which makes her beauty and wellness product recommendations feel more like a recommendation from a friend than an ad. They trade favorites across skincare, makeup, hair, and self-care. First up is a sleep tool Amy already owns thanks to Katie's influence. From there they get into a cult toothpaste that Katie says has kept her from reaching for extra whitening treatments and strips and a Pilates weight set that solves a problem neither of them had seen solved before. Katie is just as candid about what doesn’t work, including a viral body-care product she kept seeing online and could not stand. The result is a useful mix of beauty and wellness product reviews, with clear favorites worth spending on and a few hyped-up picks you can happily skip. Press play for the full list of holy grails, splurges, and one honest miss.

Your cholesterol climbs. Your bone density drops. And you may not hear how much changing hormones can affect both. Jennifer Gularson, a board-certified physician assistant and functional medicine practitioner, joins Amy Sherman on Wellness Junkies to break down HRT and clear up some of the questions women have about hormones in midlife. Jennifer breaks down the difference between bioidentical and synthetic HRT and explains why she tells patients that birth control pills can involve about ten times the estrogen dose she uses for HRT. She tackles common concerns about HRT and breast cancer and shares her perspective on what newer research says about risk. The conversation turns to perimenopause and why symptoms can start up to a decade before menopause. Jennifer explains how she uses testosterone in her practice, where peptides may fit for concerns such as gut health, inflammation, and weight management, and where bone health and heart health fit into the bigger picture of women's longevity. There's a lot packed into this hour. Press play to hear Jennifer's practical guidance and figure out what your next conversation with your doctor should sound like.

| The College Admissions Expert Who Finally Makes the Process Feel Less Overwhelming | EP231 | 03 Sep 2026 | 00:58:07 | |
REPLAY! We're bringing this one back because college admissions season rolls around every year, and the questions parents ask never really change. Your kid's grades are fine. Their activities are fine. So why does the college process still feel like it's swallowing your whole house? That's the question Amy Sherman digs into with Alexis White, nationally recognized college admissions expert and founder of A-List Admissions and Tutoring, in this episode of Wellness Junkies. If you are looking for college admissions advice for parents that calms the noise, this conversation is the reset button. Alexis has worked with students for more than 20 years, with her tutoring business eventually expanding into college admissions. She opens with a mindset shift most parents never hear, then explains why tenth grade is such an important year for narrowing priorities and starting to think more seriously about the college process. She also breaks down a piece of high school college prep most people skip. Alexis shares her honest take on touring safety schools before junior year, and why the reaction almost always surprises parents. Later, Amy and Alexis get into staying sane during college applications when the comparison spiral hits, why parents need to tune out everyone else's opinions, and a specific college essay mistake Alexis sees English teachers make again and again. The conversation also gets into the anti-college movement gaining traction online, plus a few under-the-radar schools Alexis is loving right now. Press play if you want to walk away from this one feeling steadier than when you hit start.

Bethany built her viral Sunday outfit formulas because she got tired of making the same decision every morning. She shares how she plans a full week of looks in fifteen minutes, why a strong personal style comes from repetition rather than more shopping, and how to elevate a basic outfit with one small styling shift. They also get into the emotional side of a closet. Bethany explains why so many women dress for other people instead of themselves, gives her test for catching an impulse buy before it happens, and walks through her 21-day wardrobe refresh for anyone who feels stuck staring at a closet full of clothes with nothing to wear. This is a relatable wellness conversation for anyone who wants their closet to work harder for their actual life, with practical tips on denim brands, white tees, and building a capsule wardrobe you will reach for on repeat. Press play and get dressed with a little more ease this week.

| You Have Permission to Pivot - Wendy Valentine on Midlife Reinvention | EP229 | 20 Aug 2026 | 00:54:45 | |
REPLAY! We're bringing this one back because Wendy Valentine's midlife reinvention story is the one you keep asking us to replay. Wendy Valentine was 45, in the middle of her second divorce, deep in debt, and dealing with black mold toxicity and chronic Lyme disease, on top of menopause, when her dog, her cat, and her brother all died within six weeks of each other. She hit her breaking point crying on a cold bathroom floor. That is where her midlife reinvention began. On Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman sits down with Wendy to talk through how she rebuilt her entire life from there. Wendy is an internationally published author of Women Waking Up, founder of Midlifology™, and host of The Midlife Makeover Show. She has appeared on Good Day New York and CBS News Los Angeles. She walks Amy through the vision that pulled her off that bathroom floor, and the plan she built from it that led to a job offer within four weeks. The two dig into self-care for women over 40 during midlife reinvention, from the exact words Wendy tells herself when her inner critic gets loud to the ACE method she uses for grief and anxiety. She also connects boundary setting for women to how you talk to yourself first, especially on the hard days. Press play to hear how Wendy went from a U-Haul and a new job in Chicago to an RV crossing the country, and why she says giving yourself permission to pivot matters more than having a plan.

Dance parties for women over 40 have become a popular way to blow off steam without a late night or a guilt trip. On this episode of Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman talks with Laura Baginski, co-founder of Earlybirds Club, the sold-out dance party movement now running in 40 cities nationwide. Laura built the club with her high school friend Susie Lee while Susie was living with stage four cancer. Laura shares the origin story, the blizzard that almost canceled their first event, and the phrase Susie asked every guest to live by, one that still opens every party today. Expect relatable wellness conversations about why an all-women dance floor changes how people move, plus the one detail on every venue rider that has nothing to do with music. It is one of the small touches that keeps people coming back to these dance parties for women over 40. Laura also shares her own wellness tips, from her real sleep routine to the one skincare product she reorders on autopilot. If you want proof that a dance party for women 40+ can double as therapy, a workout, and a reunion with your own joy, press play.

REPLAY! You can be doing everything right and still feel wiped out by 2 p.m. That drained, running-on-empty feeling is one of the most common complaints Lindsey hears from the women she works with, and it usually has nothing to do with willpower. This episode gets into what's actually driving low energy in midlife. Amy sits down with Lindsey Kaszuba, wellness mentor and founder of Health Club Collective, for a conversation about mindset and health that goes beyond another meal plan or supplement stack. Lindsey has spent years helping women simplify wellness without losing their minds in the process. She breaks down her energy bank concept, the idea that everything you eat, watch, and do either fills your tank or drains it. Lindsey also shares why she stopped weighing herself and what that choice uncovered about her own relationship with the number on the scale. It ties directly into the mindset shift around health she now teaches her clients. If low energy in midlife has you searching for answers, this episode offers simple health habits you can actually stick to, no complicated morning routine required. Amy and Lindsey talk through practical wellness hacks and what it really takes to learn how to feel better in your body at this stage of life. Tune in to the full conversation and start making small shifts that actually stick.

| The Skincare Habits Worth Building Before a Deep Plane Facelift Becomes the Conversation | EP226 | 30 Jul 2026 | 00:56:23 | |
REPLAY! This is a favorite episode from the archive, back by popular demand. Most of what slows aging happens years before anyone considers surgery. That's the case Dr. Ruslan Zhuravsky makes in this episode of Wellness Junkies, and it starts with skincare tips most women skip entirely. Dr. Zhuravsky is a board-certified facial plastic surgeon and founder of Z Face Plastic Surgery in South Florida. He's known for pushing back on the trend of copying celebrity faces instead of building beauty routines around your own anatomy. He joins host Amy Sherman for a warm, honest conversation about what works. He shares the exact wellness and beauty hacks he uses himself, including what sits next to his toothbrush every morning. He explains why microneedling only works if you layer the right ingredients underneath it, what exosomes do, and why some popular under-eye treatments deliver far less than the marketing suggests. For anyone curious about surgery down the line, he explains the real difference between a mini facelift and a true deep plane facelift, why some surgeons perform the procedure on patients in their thirties, and why chasing natural facelift results too early may not deliver the outcome you expect. Press play for the skincare tips worth stealing long before you consider anything more invasive.

| GLP-1s for Perimenopausal Weight Gain: What a Top Bariatric Surgeon Wants You to Know | EP224 | 16 Jul 2026 | 00:49:08 | |
REPLAY! Bariatric surgery is the most effective tool for lasting weight loss, and her experience performing thousands of procedures has given Dr. Betsy Dovec a clear understanding of what can help patients succeed. In this episode of Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman sits down with Dr. Dovec, a top female bariatric surgeon and founder of BodyByBariatrics, to break down the decision between bariatric surgery vs GLP-1 medications from the perspective of someone who treats patients with both options every day. Dr. Dovec explains what gastric bypass surgery involves, why some patients go home the same day, and who may be an ideal candidate. The conversation then turns to GLP-1 weight loss medications. Amy and Dr. Dovec compare Ozempic and Zepbound, the often-overlooked side effects, and explain why weight regain is common after patients stop taking these medications. Dr. Dovec also shares why some post-surgery patients respond well to GLP-1 medications and how the combination may help support their long-term results. For women in midlife, this episode examines how GLP-1 medications may fit into treatment for weight gain during perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Dovec explains why the habits you once relied on may become less effective as your hormones shift. She also discusses the health risks associated with visceral fat and the potential role of GLP-1 treatment in reducing the internal fat linked to heart attacks, strokes, and fatty liver disease. If you have tried every diet and still feel stuck, this conversation about bariatric surgery and GLP-1 medications offers a clearer framework for understanding your options.

| Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals, Hormone Disruptors, and How to Detox Your Home | EP223 | 09 Jul 2026 | 00:45:54 | |
REPLAY! This episode deserves a second listen, so we are bringing back a conversation you do not want to miss. Your body carries a hidden chemical load, and most of the sources sit in your kitchen, your bathroom, and your grocery cart. On Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman talks with Jenna Hua, PhD, CEO and founder of Million Marker, about endocrine-disrupting chemicals and how these hidden toxins can interfere with hormones, fertility, and long-term health. Jenna started Million Marker in 2019. The company offers a mail-in urine test for hormone disruptors, informed by her fertility struggles and her research as an environmental health scientist. Jenna explains why BPA-free products can fall short, since manufacturers may swap one molecule for another and leave the label unchanged. She breaks down how phthalates in cosmetics can hide under the single word “fragrance” and shares the moment she found phthalates in her own vitamins and packaging tape. The conversation connects fertility, toxins, and long-term health with clear science, showing why these exposures can build slowly over time. Jenna closes with simple ways to detox your home, from stainless steel cookware to glass food storage to a reverse osmosis water filter. This replay hands you a real plan reducing endocrine-disrupting chemicals at home.

REPLAY! This one is worth coming back to. Shana Draugelis built The Mom Edit into a platform that reaches over three million visitors a year because she started from the same place most moms do. On Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman sits down with Shana for a conversation that makes getting dressed, taking care of your skin, and showing up for yourself feel a lot more doable. Shana has spent over a decade paying attention to what women actually need when they open their closets, and her mom style tips reflect that. Her take on mom fashion cuts through the noise, her closet cleanout tips take the dread out of a task most people put off for years, and her read on what is worth buying and wearing right now is the kind of advice that saves you time and money. The beauty conversation follows the same logic. Her beauty routines, skincare tips, and beauty hacks are built for a full schedule, and her relatable beauty tips come from someone who has done the testing so you do not have to. She also shares the wellness routines that keep her grounded as a founder and a mom, and one of them is so simple it might surprise you.

Juliana Spaven is a 50-plus model, content creator, and the founder of Silver Highlights 1971, a platform built around helping women age well without surgery, Botox, or toxic products. On Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman and Juliana dig into the real conversation most women are having privately but rarely hear out loud, and why your 50s might be the most powerful decade yet. Juliana shares the wellness tips and beauty routines that changed everything for her, from ditching Botox after a decade to building a skincare practice rooted in clean ingredients and consistency. She breaks down her approach to face yoga and how targeted facial exercises helped lift and define her features without a single procedure. She also walks through her skincare product recommendations, including the brands she trusts and the at-home tools that have made the biggest difference in her skin. Aging naturally is a full-body practice, and Juliana breaks down how nutrition, movement, and mindset all show up on your face and in your energy.

| Wellness Tips for Back Pain, Tight Hips, and Restless Leg Syndrome with Dr. Dan Ginader | EP220 | 18 Jun 2026 | 00:46:27 | |
REPLAY! Dr. Dan Ginader said something in this episode that stopped us in our tracks, and we think you need to hear it again. Most of the pain you're dealing with every day is not something you just have to live with. On Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman sits down with Dr. Dan Ginader, doctor of physical therapy and the internet's favorite PT with over 1.5 million followers. His approach to physical therapy and wellness tips is refreshingly simple and built for real people with real lives. The truth is, most chronic pain, including neck tension, tight hips, the back that never quite feels right, comes down to how little we move throughout the day. Dr. Dan makes that easy to understand and even easier to act on. This is relatable wellness that doesn't ask you to overhaul your life. It just asks you to start somewhere. Whether you've been brushing off restless leg syndrome, pushing through arthritis, or ignoring an injury that won't quit, Dr. Dan gives you a smarter take on pain management and what your body needs. Good pain management is less about finding the perfect exercise and more about showing up consistently. That's a wellness hack worth hearing twice. This is exactly the kind of conversation that makes Wellness Junkies one of the best wellness podcasts for women who are done with complicated answers.

| Eating Disorder Recovery Is Not About the Food. It’s a Mental Health Issue - with Jackie Goldschneider | EP219 | 11 Jun 2026 | 00:48:43 | |
REPLAY! This conversation is too important to hear only once, and Jackie Goldschneider is exactly the reason why. Eating disorder recovery is not about food, and she wants you to understand why. On this episode of Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman sits down with Jackie Goldschneider, author, activist, and Real Housewives of New Jersey former cast member, to talk about something rarely discussed with this level of honesty. Jackie lived with anorexia for nearly two decades before finding her way to health in her mid-forties, and her story is a reminder that eating disorder recovery can happen at any stage of life. Her memoir, The Weight of Beautiful, was born from the experience she wished she'd had when she was searching for answers. She opens up about what it felt like to live inside an illness that nobody around her truly understood, why eating disorders in women so often go unrecognized, and what she wants families to know about eating disorder mental health. Telling someone to just eat does not work, and this conversation explains why. Jackie also reflects on the relationship between mental health and body image, the role compulsive movement played in her disorder, and the moment she finally decided to ask for help. For anyone who has struggled personally or watched someone they love struggle, eating disorder awareness starts with honest conversations like this one. She shares what life looks like now, from friendships and writing, to therapy and learning that good enough is sometimes exactly enough. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Jackie Goldschneider on Eating Disorder Recovery and Advocacy 01:28 Weekly Highs With Amy and Jackie 03:29 How Anorexia Took Hold and What No One Talked About 06:02 What People Get Wrong About Eating Disorder Mental Health 08:32 The Rock Bottom Moment That Changed Everything 13:00 Going Public on Real Housewives and the Fallout 18:00 Writing The Weight of Beautiful and Why It Had to Exist 25:00 Eating Disorders in Women and the Silence Around Them 32:00 What Recovery Actually Looks Like Day to Day 38:00 Beauty Favorites and Product Picks 44:00 Quick Beauty Routine 46:00 How Jackie Stays Grounded and What Keeps Her Going Connect with Jackie Goldschneider: Shop this episode: You know we love to give you the best of the best in wellness products and resources to help you learn more about our podcast topics.

| Wellness Routines You Will Actually Stick To Even If You Hate Working Out | EP218 | 04 Jun 2026 | 00:43:38 | |
REPLAY! Some episodes are too good to only hear once. This one is back because the conversation Carl Daikeler started is still one of the most searched topics we have ever covered on Wellness Junkies. Host Amy Sherman sits down with Carl Daikeler, CEO and co-founder of BODi (formerly Beachbody), to talk about what it really takes to build wellness routines that hold up in an actual busy life. Carl has spent 26 years helping everyday people move more and eat better. And his own morning routine is practical, a little intense, and clearly built for real life. Cold plunge, lemon water, apple cider vinegar, a loaded Shakeology shake, and a 25 to 35-minute workout. Done by 8 a.m. No excuses, no flexibility on that. What gets Carl up at 5 a.m. is not passion for fitness, it is the fear of being the person at 80 who cannot get out of a chair without help. BODi was built on that same logic, helping busy parents feel capable in their daily lives. He also shares some of his best wellness hacks, including hiding broccoli in mashed potatoes to sneak in vegetables, swapping a separate breakfast for a nutrient-dense shake after his workout, and taking a brisk 15 to 20-minute walk after dinner to sleep better and support digestion. These are the kinds of habit strategies that stick because they fit in real life. If you missed this one the first time around, now is your chance. And if this is a re-listen, you will probably catch something new. Wellness Junkies is one of the best wellness podcasts for women that does not take itself too seriously but still delivers real value, and this episode is exactly why. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Meet Carl Daikeler, CEO and Co-Founder of BODi 01:22 From Beachbody to BODi: Building Fitness Programs for Everyday People 09:32 Why Goal-Oriented Programs Beat Open-Ended Wellness Routines 17:22 Mindset and the Power Mindset Project 19:54 Health Esteem: The Alternative to Diet Culture and the Imperfection Economy 23:27 GLP-1 Medications, Muscle Loss, and Why Exercise Still Matters 27:01 Why Women Need Strength Training at Every Age 31:26 Workout Motivation at 61: How Carl Got Into the Best Shape of His Life 34:36 Carl's Morning Wellness Routines That Changed Everything 38:25 Top Wellness Hacks: Cold Plunge, Post-Dinner Walks, and Eating Without Guilt Connect with Carl Daikeler: For More on this Episode: Read the full show notes here 👉🏻 Join the Wellness Junkies community: • Follow us @wellnessjunkiesofficial on Instagram • Subscribe to our newsletter • Shop this episode + our faves on ShopMyShop • NEW!

| The Grass-Fed Myth: Nutrition Tips for Buying Better Meat From Parker Pastures CEO Cloe Parker | EP217 | 28 May 2026 | 00:28:07 | |
REPLAY! Most people think "grass-fed" tells the full story. According to Cloe Parker, it often does not, and that changes everything about how you shop for meat. On this episode of Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman sits down with Cloe, who runs Parker Pastures, for one of the most practical wellness conversations the show has had. Cloe returned home after her mother was diagnosed with cancer and officially took over Parker Pastures right before she turned 20. Her mission since then has been simple. Help families understand what they are eating and why it matters. The wellness tips she shares here are not about supplements or skincare routines. They are about the food most of us buy every week without thinking twice. Cloe breaks down why the "grass-fed" label lost its regulatory meaning in 2016, what grain finishing does to the omega-3 to omega-6 ratio in beef, and what fat color and meat color actually tell you about quality. She also gets into chicken processing, including the bleach bath most commercial chicken goes through before it hits the shelf. These are not wellness hacks you will find in a listicle. They are honest wellness conversations about the food system itself, the kind of relatable wellness conversations that make you rethink your next grocery run. Cloe also shares her wellness routines, from clean food and protein to faith, time in nature, and staying grounded in something real. Whether you are searching for the best wellness products or want better wellness tips for everyday life, this episode gives you a clear framework for both. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 How Cloe Parker Took Over Her Family’s Meat Company 03:32 The Truth About Grass-Fed Labels and What They Actually Mean 05:42 How to Tell If Your Meat Is Really Grass-Fed, Grass-Finished 13:04 The Truth About Grocery Store Chicken and Bleach Baths 13:43 How to Order From Parker Pastures and Buy Meat in Bulk 18:19 The State of the Food Industry and Why Small Farms Need Your Support 23:01 Wellness Tips From a Rancher: Nature, Clean Food, and Daily Grounding Connect with Cloe Parker: Follow Parker Pastures on Facebook Visit the Parker Pastures website Use code "WELLNESS" at checkout for 10% off at ParkerPastures.com, other links on prior episode page on website For More on this Episode: Read the full show notes here 👉🏻 Join the Wellness Junkies community: • Follow us @wellnessjunkiesofficial on Instagram • Subscribe to our newsletter • Shop this episode + our faves on ShopMyShop • NEW!

| The Makeup Mistake That's Making You Look Older (And How to Fix It) | EP216 | 21 May 2026 | 00:50:16 | |
REPLAY! Consider this your sign to finally listen to the episode everyone keeps talking about. If you have been searching for beauty tips that actually work after 40, this is the episode. Kate Talbert, MUA and beauty educator, joins Wellness Junkies host Amy Sherman for the kind of conversation you want to have with a friend who just happens to know everything about makeup and skincare. Kate did not take the obvious path to beauty education. She was a kindergarten teacher, then a stay-at-home mom who started hosting small makeup classes around her kitchen table for women who had spent years putting themselves last. Then COVID hit, a friend suggested a Zoom makeup tutorial, and it went viral. Four years later she has built a following around one idea that sounds simple but changes everything. You are probably using too much and doing too much, and your skin would look better with less. She brings that same honesty to her beauty product recommendations. The brands worth knowing about, the classics worth keeping, and the places where the drugstore version is genuinely just as good. No hype, no sponsorship energy, just what she actually uses and why. Her skincare tips follow the same logic. Skin prep matters more than most women realize, facial oil is underrated, and applying makeup before your skincare has fully absorbed is quietly ruining your base. Her skincare product recommendations are practical and cover every budget, which makes them actually useful. Beauty routines get a full rethink here too. These beauty tips cover everything from eye shadow placement to the five-minute face, and the whole conversation makes getting ready feel like something you might actually enjoy again. For anyone hunting for the best beauty podcasts for women that respect your time and your intelligence, Wellness Junkies earns its spot. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Welcome to Wellness Junkies 01:03 Kate Talbert's Journey from Teacher to MUA 03:39 The Biggest Makeup Mistakes Women Over 40 Make 08:45 Holy Grail Beauty Product Recommendations for Mature Skin 17:28 How to Prep Your Skin for Everyday Makeup vs. Special Events 26:34 Eye Makeup for Hooded and Crepey Lids 33:00 Where to Splurge and Where to Save on Makeup 39:07 Beauty Tips for Your Five-Minute Face 44:52 Balancing Work, Kids, and Social Media as a Creator Connect with Kate Talbert: Shop this episode: You know we love to give you the best of the best in wellness products and resources to help you learn more about our podcast topics.

| Travel Tips for Women: Best Wellness Retreats, Girls Getaways, and Hidden Destinations | EP215 | 14 May 2026 | 00:43:13 | |
REPLAY! Good travel advice does not have an expiration date, and neither does this episode. Most people plan a summer vacation and come home needing another one. Sari Marissa, custom travel itinerary designer and wellness retreats enthusiast, joins host Amy Sherman on Wellness Junkies to talk about how to actually travel in a way that restores you instead of wiping you out. If you missed this the first time, you are about to get a serious case of wanderlust. And if you already listened, you already know why it is back. Sari has built her entire business around steering people away from the tourist default and toward experiences that feel personal and genuinely restorative. Her travel tips cover everything from last-minute long weekends to bucket list birthday trips, and the through line is always the same. The best travel is designed around you, not around what everyone else is doing. She makes a strong case for the Azores as Europe's answer to Hawaii, explains why the Catskills are more interesting than people give them credit for, and breaks down why wellness retreats in Iceland, Scandinavia, and Costa Rica belong on your radar if real rest is the goal. Her wellness hacks are practical and specific. She is not talking about generic spa weekends. She is talking about places where the environment itself does the work. The conversation also covers road trip packing strategies, light travel tips that actually hold up in real life, and why group birthday trips almost never go as planned. Sari's approach to wellness routines on the road is the kind of relatable self care wisdom you can actually use, not just screenshot and forget. This is the travel episode for women who want their next trip to feel like a real reset. Share this one with whoever you are already texting about your next girls trip.

| Interior Design Advice: Why Your Home Should Feel Lived In, Not Perfect with Zoe Feldman | EP214 | 07 May 2026 | 00:43:19 | |
REPLAY! This one was too good to sit in the archives. Interior design has never felt this personal, this practical, or this easy to actually use in your own home. Amy Sherman of Wellness Junkies sits down with her longtime friend and interior designer Zoe Feldman for a conversation that covers a lot of ground, from summer decorating on a budget to the beauty routines of a woman running a 35-person design firm. If you caught this one the first time around, you already know why it is back. If you missed it, you are in for a treat. Zoe's approach to interior design is refreshingly honest. Your home is meant to be lived in, not preserved. Marble etches. Wine spills. That is the point. She talks through the 80/20 rule she uses across every project, 80% quiet canvas, 20% bold statement, and how that same thinking applies to budgets, materials, and the way color works in a space. Natural stone, color-forward kitchens, and organic materials are having a moment, and Zoe breaks down why it all connects to a bigger cultural shift toward authenticity over perfection. She also pulls back the curtain on Demi, her newer service tier built for clients who want serious design talent without the full-service price tag. It is one of the more relatable wellness conversations you will hear from a creative entrepreneur, because it started with Zoe realizing she could not afford herself. The wrap session brings relatable beauty tips. Highlighter every single day. Foundation serum over heavy coverage. Moisturizer as a non-negotiable. These are the low-effort beauty hacks that actually hold up when you are a busy working mom running out the door with a bun and five minutes to spare. As far as beauty routines go, hers is proof that simple and intentional beats are complicated every time. This is one of the best wellness podcasts for women doing the real work of building something while staying grounded. Share it with a friend who needs the reminder that a beautiful life does not have to look perfect.

REPLAY! This episode was so good we had to bring it back. Sunny and Jenn have been best friends for forty years, became TikTok famous on a Palm Beach sidewalk without trying, and have never once pretended to be something they are not. If you missed this conversation the first time, get ready to fall in love with these fabulous ladies. And…if you already listened, you know exactly why we are replaying it. Sunny and Jenn built a devoted following by being completely, unapologetically themselves. What keeps people coming back is the friendship, the honesty, and the kind of relatable beauty conversations that feel more like a group chat than a polished production. In this episode, they get into beauty routines and skincare tips that are refreshingly low-pressure. Tinted moisturizer over a heavy foundation. A baked bronzer that does the heavy lifting. Vitamin C and sunscreen as the non-negotiables. Lip gloss over lipstick, always. These are the kind beauty tips recommendations we love because they come from women who have tried it all and know what works. Wellness routines get the same no-nonsense treatment. Jenn, Peloton's first-ever instructor, talks about the shift from grinding cardio to strength training and why it matters more now than ever for women over 40. Sunny shares how movement became her therapy. Both women talk about meditation, stress, and how they stay grounded when life gets a little too crazy. The conversation also touches on gift recs, style, and the kind of midlife recalibration that does not get talked about enough. At the center of it all is a simple idea Sunny and Jenn keep coming back to. Go for the thing, make the list, and stop pretending everything is fine when it is not. Share this episode with your bestie, your girls group chat, and every woman in your life who could use a little of this energy!

| Face Yoga, Mouth Tape & The Best Beauty Habits for Women 40+ with Shelly Marshall | EP212 | 23 Apr 2026 | 01:00:12 | |
Beauty can feel simpler when you know which daily habits help you lift your face naturally and feel good in your skin. Continuing with our expert wellness interviews, host Amy Sherman talks with Shelly Marshall, facial beauty expert, esthetician, former nurse injector, and founder of Beauty Shamans and Skin Within Studio, about a version of beauty that feels more sustainable and a lot less confusing. This conversation is for women who want beauty and wellness tips that go deeper than trend chasing and give them something they can actually use. Shelly shares how face yoga, facial massage, posture, and jaw tension all connect to the way your face looks and feels over time. Her approach brings skincare tips and wellness tips into the same conversation, which makes these ideas feel more practical and easier to stick with. Amy asks the questions a lot of women are already asking about time, consistency, and whether simple beauty routines can really help you lift your face naturally. Shelly makes the case that beauty hacks do not need to be extreme to be effective. Small daily habits can support circulation, lymph flow, muscle tone, and the way you relate to your own face. That makes this conversation feel useful for anyone who wants beauty and wellness tips that support confidence without adding another overwhelming routine. Amy and Shelly also talk about mouth tape, face tape, Botox, filler, and beauty product recommendations with a clear and honest lens.

| K-Beauty 101: The Simple 4-Step Skincare Routine + Skincare Products Worth Trying | EP204 | 26 Feb 2026 | 00:39:44 | |
The real K-Beauty skincare philosophy has less to do with 12-steps and specific skincare products and more to do with how you treat your skin every day. Korean skincare routines often get labeled as complicated, yet Elle Choi Son reframes it as disciplined consistency rooted in culture. Skincare in her world starts early and centers on hydration, layering, and protecting the skin barrier. Healthy skin is the baseline. Everything else builds on that. From winning Miss Korea Washington at 18 to carving out a niche as a Korean American makeup artist, Elle learned early that great makeup begins long before foundation ever touches your face. Amy and Elle cut through the noise of viral skincare trends and overflowing shelves of skincare products with a return to basics: cleanser, toner, moisturizer, sunscreen. Build the habit first. Then explore Korean beauty products with intention, whether that means testing some of the best Korean skincare brands or trying newer categories like PDRN skincare. They also talk honestly about trend-driven products such as at-home micro-needling formulas and why more product does not equal better results. The best skincare tips are calm and practical. Let skincare absorb before applying makeup. Protect your barrier. Keep it simple when life gets busy. Glowing skin rarely comes from one miracle product, instead, it comes from consistent care you can sustain. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 K-Beauty 101: Why Korean Skincare Is Different 04:13 The Korean Skincare Routine Philosophy and Cultural Roots 09:37 K-Beauty for Beginners: The Essential Starter Routine 11:34 Elle’s Real-Life Korean Skincare Routine and Favorite Products 23:19 Skincare Ingredients Explained: PDRN, Actives, and What to Avoid 26:12 Viral K-Beauty Trends and Influencer Myths 34:26 Five-Minute Makeup Routine That Starts With Skincare Connect with Elle Choi Son: Shop this episode: You know we love to give you the best of the best in wellness products and resources to help you learn more about our podcast topics.

| GLP-1s for Perimenopausal Weight Gain: A Bariatric Surgeon Explains | EP203 | 19 Feb 2026 | 00:49:34 | |
GLP-1s and bariatric surgery are powerful medical tools, and the real risk is starting them without understanding what long-term weight maintenance actually requires. Continuing with our expert wellness interviews, Dr. Betsy Dovec, one of the most experienced bariatric surgeons in the country, speaks plainly about what long-term care actually demands, whether someone chooses bariatric surgery, GLP-1 medications, or a combination of both. The question beneath it all is simple and uncomfortable: are you looking for a short-term result, or are you prepared for a long-term strategy? There is honesty here about weight regain, about the reality that stopping GLP-1 medications often leads to reversal, and about why a plan for maintenance matters more than the initial drop on the scale. The discussion touches on Microdosing GLP-1, the rise of GLP-1 oral medication, and how access and expectations shape outcomes. It also moves into GLP-1 for menopause and perimenopause, acknowledging how hormones change the metabolic equation for women and why GLP-1 inflammation benefits may explain why some feel better beyond weight loss alone. This episode challenges the shame narrative. Obesity is treated as a chronic metabolic condition influenced by biology, environment, and hormones. The deeper takeaway is not which tool to choose, but whether you are approaching your health with clarity about what sustainable care truly involves.

| Product Junkies: Crush Alert - Current Beauty Product Obsessions + One Chic Fashion Find For Women Over 40| EP202 | 12 Feb 2026 | 00:10:10 | |
Sometimes the most useful beauty and wellness advice is paying attention to what you already reach for. In this episode of Wellness Junkies, Amy reflects on what it actually means to trust your own taste when it comes to beauty products, skincare routines, and wellness rituals. The conversation centers on choosing products based on lived experience rather than trends, and noticing which ones earn their place in everyday routines. There is an ease to the way she talks about shopping, rooted in paying attention to what supports real life instead of chasing what is new. Skincare plays a central role, framed around ease, comfort, and how products feel over time. Amy explains why certain formulas stay in rotation and how her standards have shifted toward performance and simplicity. Fewer products that do their job well tend to support routines better than crowded shelves and big promises. Overall, the episode offers a steady reminder that wellness does not need to be complicated to be effective. Let your daily habits guide your choices, trust what you genuinely enjoy using, and allow your routines to evolve by letting go of what no longer fits.

| Why Less Works Better in Skincare For Women 40+: Science-Backed Wellness Without the Hype with Lindsay Nahmiache | EP201 | 05 Feb 2026 | 00:36:40 | |
Wellness works best when you stop chasing trends and start paying attention to what actually delivers results. This conversation cuts through the noise of modern wellness and skincare culture and asks a question many people quietly wrestle with: how do you know what is worth your time, money, and trust. Continuing with our expert wellness interviews, Lindsay shares how her approach to clinical-backed skincare grew from seeing firsthand how skincare science outperforms hype when results matter. From daily routines to bigger wellness choices, the focus stays on simplicity, consistency, and supporting the body rather than overwhelming it. What changes when hydration becomes a priority rather than an afterthought? The discussion also explores Veriphy Skincare and its biotech foundation, offering a grounded perspective on why clean beauty works best when it is paired with real clinical data. Lindsay explains why fewer products can outperform crowded routines and why disciplined growth builds stronger brands and better outcomes. The same thinking shapes how she evaluates companies as an investor, where integrity, clarity, and long-term vision often matter more than speed or flash. Throughout the episode, themes of balance, leadership, and self-trust surface again and again. How do you build a full life and a meaningful business without burning out? How do you filter wellness advice when everything claims to be the answer? This conversation offers a steady reminder that effective wellness starts with hydration, informed choices, and the confidence to do less when less works better.

| How to Stay Sane During the College Admissions Process | EP200 | 29 Jan 2026 | 01:10:31 | |
College admissions get stressful fast, and for many parents, it starts with the feeling that the rules keep changing and no one explains them clearly. Amy names that tension early in the episode, and Alexis White helps slow it down. Drawing from her work as a college expert and her experience as a parent, Alexis talks through the college process in a practical way. The focus stays on parenting through this stage with intention, prioritizing mental health, realistic expectations, and meaningful support for parents who want to guide their kids without letting stress take over family life. Rather than chasing prestige or checking every box, the conversation asks parents to pause and reassess. What actually fits your child right now? How do grades, activities, and testing reflect who they are, not who they are supposed to be? Alexis offers clear guidance on timing, essays, and decision points, with the reminder that consistency and perspective matter more than perfection. This episode centers on support for parents navigating a major transition. College admissions are treated as a developmental step, not a verdict. With more clarity and fewer assumptions, the college process starts to feel less intimidating and more workable.

| Why Your Body Hurts (And Why Movement Is The Missing Piece) | EP199 | 22 Jan 2026 | 00:46:14 | |
Your body doesn’t need a complicated reset. It needs more movement today and fewer hours spent frozen in the same position. Amy sits down with Dr. Dan Ginader, a physical therapist and author of The Pain-Free Body, to talk about why so many pain issues stem from long stretches of stillness rather than a lack of effort. Drawing from his work in sports therapy and his one-on-one clinical practice, Dr. Dan explains how consistent movement often matters more than perfect exercise plans. Whether the goal is pain management, injury prevention, or long-term wellness, the most effective approach is choosing exercise you actually enjoy and will repeat. The conversation brings clarity to common issues many people quietly live with. Dr. Dan explains restless leg syndrome and why symptoms tend to surface at night, unpacks how neck pain often starts in the shoulders or from poor desk setup, and reframes arthritis as a normal part of aging rather than a life-limiting diagnosis. From sports therapy and youth injury prevention to simple health tips you can use at home, the focus stays on moving more, supporting your joints with strength, and building habits that fit real life.

| How to Age Well Naturally with Face Yoga, Facial Exercises, and Clean Beauty with Juliana Spaven | EP198 | 15 Jan 2026 | 00:47:18 | |
Aging well starts when you stop chasing quick fixes and start building strength, energy, and confidence through habits that actually hold up over time. Amy sits down with Juliana Spaven, a 50+ model, content creator, and founder of Silver Highlights 1971, a platform devoted to helping women age naturally and age well through movement, nutrition, face yoga, and clean beauty. Juliana shares how midlife fatigue, poor sleep, and mounting frustration became a turning point that pushed her to question what aging could look like with more intention. What happens when you stop accepting discomfort as normal and start treating it as useful feedback? The conversation focuses on consistency over shortcuts. Strength training, mobility, and stability form the foundation, especially as hormones change. Juliana explains why she stepped away from Botox and turned to facial exercises, face yoga, and tools like Frownies to support lift and tone over time, along with protein-forward nutrition and ingredient awareness that support overall health. This episode offers a steady reframing of aging as something you actively participate in rather than brace against. What choices are shaping your future self right now?

This week on Wellness Junkies, Amy is back with favorite co-host Rachel Johnson of ah.mi to chat with the iconic Kristin McGee – celebrity yoga and pilates teacher, former Peloton coach, mom of three, and founder of the Kristin McGee Movement app. Kristin shares how a random yoga class at Crunch led to MTV Yoga DVDs, a dream role launching Peloton’s Yoga & Pilates program, and what really went into her decision to leave a high-profile role and build her own platform while navigating divorce and single motherhood.

| Air It Out Ladies! We’re Live With The Vag Doc - In Celebration of Women's Hormone Health series | 20 Nov 2025 | 00:55:11 | |
In celebration of Women's Hormone Health - Welcome to this special series of Wellness Junkies, where over the next few weeks we’re shining a spotlight on women’s health — specifically perimenopause, menopause, HRT, and everything in between. We’re revisiting some of our favorite women’s health episodes following some big news from the FDA. In this episode of Wellness Junkies, we dive deep into the often-taboo topics surrounding women's health with our special guest, Dr. C, also known as The Vag Doc on social media. With over 16 years of experience as a board-certified OB-GYN, Dr. C has made a name for herself on social media by breaking down complex issues related to gynecology (from periods to menopause) with clarity, compassion, and a touch of humor. The conversation kicks off with Dr. C sharing her journey into social media, highlighting the lack of open discussions about gynecology and midlife women's health. She emphasizes the importance of empowering women to ask questions about their bodies, especially during the often confusing transitions of perimenopause and menopause. Dr. C treats us to a wealth of information as she answers common questions about IUDs, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and the changes women experience during menopause. She explains the benefits of keeping an IUD during midlife, the importance of estrogen for vaginal health, and how to navigate hormone levels effectively. The episode also touches on the significance of pelvic floor therapy, and encourages women to seek help and not to feel embarrassed about their health concerns, reinforcing that there is no shame in asking questions. As the episode wraps up, Amy and Melissa engage in a fun myth or fact segment, tackling common misconceptions about women's health, including the impact of wearing leggings on yeast infections. Join us for this enlightening and entertaining episode as we break down barriers and foster a community where women's health is discussed openly and honestly. Whether you're navigating menopause, considering an IUD, or simply seeking to understand your body better, this episode is packed with valuable information and insights from a trusted expert in the field.

Over the next few weeks we’re shining a spotlight on women’s health and having relatable wellness conversations — specifically discussing perimenopause, menopause, HRT, and woman's wellness over 40. We’re revisiting some of our favorite women’s health episodes following some big news from the FDA. In this episode, we talk with co-founder and COO of Womaness, Michelle Jacobs.. Womaness is dedicated to providing supplements, skincare products, and sexual health solutions for women navigating the challenges of aging. We discuss how Womaness is changing the conversation around menopause and how the founders recognized a significant gap in the market for clean, effective wellness and beauty products that not only work but also come with the necessary education and community support. We also share the evolving conversation around menopause, noting how societal attitudes have shifted over the past five years, with more women openly discussing their experiences and seeking solutions. Michelle highlighted the importance of understanding perimenopause and menopause, emphasizing that many women are unaware of what to expect during this transitional phase. Throughout our conversation, Michelle detailed Womaness's product offerings, including their top sellers. She also shared her personal favorites and how the brand aims to support women, whether they choose hormone replacement therapy or prefer natural alternatives. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to better understand the changes that come with aging and to discover products that can help ease the journey. The brand's commitment to community, education, and innovative products is redefining how women approach this stage of life, making it more comfortable and less stigmatized.
