Wellness Download: Catching Up with Ah.mi’s Rachel Johnson on Habits, Summits & Showing Up07 Aug 202500:50:14

In this episode of Wellness Junkies, Amy sits down with returning guest Rachel Johnson, founder of ah.mi, a wellness brand and community supporting busy women through curated, relatable content and quarterly group challenges.

It’s a candid catch-up on all things everyday wellness — from what really went down at the latest wellness summits to building a Substack community, morning routines, and showing up for yourself. This one’s packed with real-life inspo (plus a few beauty hacks and workout confessions along the way).

We talk about the recent growth of ah.mi and the evolution of its wellness community. Rachel shares how the brand stays grounded in its core mantra: “Greens, water, move, repeat.” The focus? Simple, actionable wellness that feels realistic, not overwhelming.

Rachel also opens up about her recent live TV appearance on South Florida Live, and how she overcame her fear of being on camera — a moment that perfectly reflects her belief in doing hard things and showing up anyway.

We then swap stories about our recent wellness summit experiences: Rachel attended In Goop Health, while Amy attended the Dear Media Wellness Edit. We compare notes on the panels, brand activations, and the overall vibe of each event — with a shared takeaway on the power of in-person connection and community.

Lastly, we trade favorite wellness hacks — from the magic of being early to lower stress, to making movement a non-negotiable, to creative ways to get more protein in. It's real talk about the rituals that work, and how to get back on track when they don’t.

Join us for this inspiring and down-to-earth episode on the realities of wellness, the joy of community, and how to keep showing up — even when it’s hard.

After three months of committing together, *big* changes started to happen — Rachel and her friends felt HAPPIER and FITTER than ever. The best thing was, they didn’t want it to end.

Hormones and Health: Understanding Adrenal Fatigue and HRT in Midlife06 Mar 202500:51:57

REPLAY - Continuing with our expert wellness interviews, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Elizabeth Poyner, a gynecological oncologist and expert in midlife women's health. Dr. Poyner shared her extensive knowledge on the intersection of hormonal health, stress management, and overall well-being for women, particularly during midlife.

We kicked off the conversation by discussing our personal "nirvana" moments of the week, highlighting the joy of seasonal changes and family milestones. Dr. Poyner then delved into her journey from specializing in cancer surgery to focusing on midlife women's health, emphasizing the importance of understanding how stress impacts our bodies and the role of hormones in managing that stress.

A significant portion of our discussion centered around adrenal fatigue and HPA axis dysregulation, with Dr. Poyner clarifying the differences between adrenal fatigue and adrenal insufficiency. She explained how chronic stress can lead to dysregulated cortisol production, affecting our overall health.

We also explored the importance of androgens, particularly testosterone and DHEA, in women's health. Dr. Poyner highlighted the benefits of these hormones for mood, cognitive function, and overall vitality, while also discussing the various methods of hormone delivery, including creams and troches.

As we moved into the topic of brain health, Dr. Poyner shared alarming statistics about women's risk of dementia and the protective role of estrogen. She emphasized the importance of starting hormone replacement therapy early in the menopause transition to potentially reduce dementia risk.

Finally, we wrapped up the episode with Dr. Poyner's recommendations for supplements that can support midlife health, including vitamin D, omega-3s, and magnesium, and the significance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle through exercise and community engagement.

This episode was packed with valuable insights and practical advice for women navigating midlife health challenges. We hope our listeners find this information empowering as they strive for their own nirvana in health and well-being.

Thanksgiving Throwback: A Home That Nurtures Your Well-being with Zoe Feldman24 Nov 202200:35:06

Bringing back an early Nirvana Sisters episode to enjoy over the american Thanksgiving holiday. Many will be visiting family and friends so what better way to relax and listen to top designer Zoe Feldman sharing ideas for a home that nurtures your well-being.  

Amy and Katie sit down with interior designer Zoe Feldman to get her tips on creating a cozy, happy and inspiring home. Zoe’s advice is accessible for all and will quickly transform your space. The three discuss ways to reduce your environmental footprint when decorating and how Zoe’s design firm gives back by donating her consultation fee to charity. 

Amy reviews one of Katie’s all time favorite products and stay till the end to hear all three share how they maintain their daily Nirvana.

Zoe Feldman:
Zoe Feldman’s signature, seamless blend of modern and classic is rooted as much in her upbringing as it is in her early design training. Raised in a mid-century modern home by art and furniture collectors and gallerists, Zoe honed her clean-lined instincts at Parsons School of Design in New York. But she credits the subsequent years working under the tutelage of AD100 designer Alexa Hampton at the iconic Manhattan-based firm Mark Hampton, Inc, for opening her eyes to the benefits of a just-so, traditional approach.  

Since setting up her own practice in 2004, Zoe’s been bringing her unique take on modernized classicism to homes across the country, and her work has been featured in publications including Elle Decor, House Beautiful, and Domino. In 2020, she was named one of the Top 10 ‘New Trads’ by Traditional Home magazine, and ‘Best Boutique Interior Design Firm’ by Home & Design magazine. Zoe draws on her love of the practical, the playful, and the deeply personal to create spaces that are as inviting and soulful as they are sophisticated.

An industry leader and innovator, Dr. Jon Marashi excels in artistic dental restoration that is highly customized to meet the needs of his patients.

The Dirty Skincare Secret We Bet You Didn’t Know About With Liz Whitman, CEO And Founder of Exponent Beauty07 Jul 202200:39:27

In this week’s episode, Amy and Katie discuss a dirty skincare secret that we bet you didn’t know about. While those in the industry have known this for years, the average consumer would not. We also talk about what you can do about it with Liz Whitman, Exponent Beauty CEO and Founder. She shares her tips for getting the most out of your skincare products, her favorite SPF and her brand new beauty brand, Exponent Beauty which is also a certified B corporation. 

About Liz Whitman:
Liz holds an AB from Harvard College and an MBA from Harvard Business School. After 12+ years of retailing “potent” skincare in other various roles, Liz had her a-ha! moment while at The Red Door by Elizabeth Arden, where she was the President and CMO, leading the strategic reinvention for the largest national salon and spa retailer across its 30 locations. Liz quickly noticed that estheticians ensured peak potency by freshly mixing treatments (and the most fragile clinical skincare ingredients) in the moment. This made her wonder: How effective can pre-mixed skincare actually be?

The Power Of Being Polished With GLOSSLAB Founder, Rachel Glass30 Jun 202200:32:23

In this week's episode Amy and Katie chat with Rachel Glass, Founder of GLOSSLAB. The three discuss the most relatable self-care errand that we all do, manicures and pedicures. Rachel explains why taking the time to get a manicure and pedicure should be a part of your weekly routine and why GLOSSLAB should be your go-to nail salon. Rachel explains why their waterless approach is more hygienic and why the brand is committed to bringing you the most efficient nail experience out there.  Between the curated color board, fun designs, and early morning hours, get excited about a GLOSSLAB opening near you. Listen to Rachel share what's on the horizon for the company and where you'll find new locations popping up.

Founder Rachel Apfel Glass saw a gap in the market during her years working at a hedge fund when she found it nearly impossible to fit in an efficient manicure during the busy work week. In 2018, after the birth of her second daughter, Rachel and a team of experts got together to open the first GLOSSLAB location in the Flatiron district of New York at 27 West 20th Street
The hygiene-first, waterless, and membership based studios also feature technology-enhanced services such as online booking, cashless payment and contactless check-in and check-out. GLOSSLAB patrons can choose from a curated group of performance-based products at the forefront of beauty and nail trends including best-in-class, long-lasting gel and non-toxic polishes.

The future forward studio features technology enhanced services (online booking, cashless payment, contactless check-in and check-out) and performance based products at the forefront of beauty and nail trends including best-in-class long lasting vegan polish, gel, and non-toxic polishes.
Hygiene is GLOSSLAB’s guarantee, with strict measures in place long before COVID-19 guidelines were developed. Every tool is scrubbed and sterilized to hospital-grade requirements; nail files and buffers are for individual use only. All high-touch areas including the nail station, polish wall, and front desk are extensively cleaned with a hospital-grade cleaner. Manicures and pedicures are waterless, which is not only more hygienic, but better for the environment and keeps polish lasting longer.

In addition to their in-person manicure and pedicure offerings, the brand launched three proprietary nail kits including: a GLOSSLAB nail tool kit, a GLOSSLAB gel eraser kit and a GLOSSLAB manicure rescue kit ranging in price from $25-$35. In Early 2022, GLOSSLAB will launch a slew of self-care must-haves including a full line of proprietary polishes, at-home mani and pedi kits, hand creams and foot creams to bring the GLOSSLAB experience into homes everywhere.

GLOSSLAB currently has eight locations in the NYC metro area including Tribeca, The Upper East Side (x2), Flatiron, Noho, Midtown, the West Village, and Westport, CT, and a studio in Bethesda, MD. More GLOSSLAB locations are opening soon including: Miami, FL, Hoboken, NJ, Georgetown, Darien, CT, Houston and Dallas. All appointments are booked online. Membership is $135 for unlimited monthly manicures + pedicures – along with a la carte services.

How To Maintain Your Nervous System With Jessica Maguire Part 2. Learn about the different types of dysregulation and how to improve your vagal tone. Tips for children with complex needs and why they might have low vagal tone.09 Jun 202200:27:35

In part 2  with Jessica Maguire,  Amy and Katie ask Jessica how a dysregulated nervous system effects children, the various types of dysregulation, and tips for how to improve one's vagal tone.  Listen as Amy gets Jessica's perspective on how low vagal tone caused by stress, could have been a contributing factor to her vestibular migraines. The three also discuss research that has shown the importance of vagal tone for a regulated nervous system, how it effects your fight or flight response, overall wellness, and more.


About Jessica Maguire:
Jessica’s passion for health first lead to a degree in Health Science, studying the use of electrocardiography: how the heart’s electrical impulses are amplified and recorded. She then went on to complete a Masters of Physiotherapy and spent over fourteen years helping people improve the health of their brain and body.
 
Through her clinical experience in neurology and musculoskeletal physiotherapy, and her previous study into how heart rate variability effects the brain, she was fascinated by neuroscience and the potential for the brain and nervous system to change.  

Jessica has studied neurophysiology throughout Europe, America, the UK and Australia. She has learnt from pain researchers, professors in neuroplasticity, neuroscientists and psychologists on how the brain and nervous system change from stress, trauma and chronic pain. Her post-graduate study has lead to further qualifications in clinical mindfulness, trauma-sensitive biofeedback, polyvagal theory and the use of transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation. 

Jessica believes that knowledge is power, and that we are empowered when we have autonomy in reshaping our mind-body system. Her specialty now is teaching patients about the vagus nerve and their nervous system, and how “stress-related illness” such as anxiety, depression, gut disorders, autoimmune issues and chronic pain can arise from dysregulation after chronic or traumatic stress. 

She uses Vagus Nerve Workshop and Masterclass, as well as the Vagus Nerve Program to help people get to the cause of their problems, rather than just relying on others to treat their symptoms.  

Nervous system dysregulation also affects the immune and endocrine system, which in turn influence the cardiovascular, reproductive and digestive systems. By recalibrating the nervous system many chronic health issues can improve. 

Her areas of expertise include:

  • nervous system dysregulation from chronic stress and trauma
  • chronic pain
  • fibromyalgia
  • inflammatory conditions 
  • anxiety and depression
  • digestive issues
  • insomnia
  • chronic fatigue
  • rheumatoid arthritis

Replay! Alli Webb x Nirvana Sisters - Meet Entrepreneur and Drybar Co-Founder Alli Webb, on Keeping It Real and Paying it Forward.26 May 202200:54:40

REPLAY! Alli just got married and in celebration, re-airing her popular episode..

In this week’s special episode  Amy and Katie meet their role model, Alli Webb, someone Amy has admired for years.  The three discuss Alli’s mentors, leadership in the entrepreneurial world, and being raised by parents with a strong work ethic. With Alli always keeping it real they discuss raising kids, her upcoming wedding and of course her new cat Cookie. Alli discusses her newest venture, Impact Series and how her passion for paying it forward to entrepreneurs has manifested. Stay till the end for her favorite hair and beauty products.

About Alli Webb:
You probably know Alli best as the co-founder of Drybar, the whimsical salon that made blowouts as accessible and budget-friendly as your favorite skinny vanilla latte. After scaling to 150+ locations and launching a product line, Alli and her partners sold Drybar to focus attention on new ventures. She has since co-founded Squeeze—a way better massage experience, Okay Humans—the future of face-to-face talk therapy, and Beckett & Quill—a high-end, not high-spend jewelry line. And, there’s no telling what she’s got up her sleeve next.

 What all of these ventures have in common—beyond Alli herself—is that they opt to make something we all need (or want)—blowouts, massages, therapy, little luxuries—more within reach. In this sense, each endeavor also reflects what Alli represents on a more personal level as a stay-at-home-mom turned mogul—she makes launching a business, following a dream, or frankly “just doing the damn thing”... within reach. Something any woman could do, as long as she’s willing to jump.

 While she’s graced the covers of today’s most esteemed business and beauty publications, has leant her expertise on the hit show, Shark Tank, and has a top-rated podcast, Raising the Bar, with her partner Adrian, Alli’s gift to the world isn’t her celebrity, but her ‘realness’ and the way in which she unapologetically and authentically sheds light on her life experiences—even the messy parts. It’s her willingness to speak the truth, and share the lows with the highs, that makes her so relatable. Yes, she’s an extremely successful entrepreneur and investor. But yes, she’s also just like you—a woman who survived a public divorce and found love on the other side. A mom who bravely and full heartedly sent her son to rehab. A person who loves to give back and finds value in not only how well her ventures do, but how they make people feel—how she makes people feel.

The 101 On Psychedelic Therapy with Julia Mirer M.D28 Apr 202201:02:28

This week, Amy and Katie have a fascinating conversation with Julie Mirer M.D about the emerging field of psychedelic medicine, something the Nirvana Sisters highlighted in their 2022 Trends Episode earlier this year. This conversation tackles the different kinds of medicine, the history, the science, who can benefit from this therapy and more. Dr. Mirer breaks down the step by step experience at Nushama for new members. The three also discuss ways to make this treatment accessible to all.

About Julia Mirer M.D:
Julia left medicine to pursue a life of healing. Julia Mirer M.D. is a consultant in the emerging field of psychedelic medicine, serving as a bridge between eastern and western practices, committed to merging them to help create a new paradigm for integrative health and wellness.

She was on the road to a career in Pediatrics, but seeing the pitfalls of the current healthcare system, decided to shift gears to explore transformative medicine where she has found her calling in advocacy and education.

Julia’s passion lies in education and advocacy for the responsible use of these medicines. Dr. Mirer believes that a successful future for this field depends on the interplay between policy, research, and clinics and has therefore positioned herself to play a role in each.

Nationally, Dr. Mirer is an advisor for the Plant Medicine Coalition, lobbying the NIH for $100mil for psychedelic research. In Florida, she works in psychedelic clinical research at Segal Trials as a facilitator for USONA’s phase 2 trial using Psilocybin for Major Depression. Most recently, Dr. Mirer joined Nushama as Director of Strategy, where she hopes to combine all her experience to create the vision of a new kind of healthcare system and facilitate Nushama’s goal of humanizing medicine.
