Episode 320: Subconscious Mind’s Role in Healing Your Gut | Manifest Your Health Series
What if I told you the same programming that got you sick can also help you heal? In this episode, we dive into how our bodies and minds are always trying to keep us safe and how, at times, a belief that was once helpful may need to be updated. Learn how and why those with adverse childhood experiences (or ACEs) and trauma are more likely to experience chronic digestive, gut and health challenges and discover tangible resources to help shift from chronic stress into a rest and digest state. By getting out of the fear-based loop, you can change your biology (and use it to heal!)

Episode 316: Microbiome, Metabolic Health & GLP-1 with Colleen Cutcliffe
Erin doesn't typically have brands come on the show to promote their products, but we're such a BIG fan of Pendulum at Team FN that we couldn't resist! Learn more about how GLP-1 works to increase satiety, curb cravings. We're also discussing how probiotics help to support overall metabolic health. This episode is for you if you're looking to get healthier and learn more about GLP-1 OR if you're a practitioner who utilizes probiotics — or works with metabolic health — in your practice.

Episode 315: Supporting Your Metabolism with Liz Wolfe
This week, Erin welcomes back one of her first ever “regulars”, Liz Wolfe, to discuss all things metabolism, especially as it pertains to women in their 40s. While discussing macronutrients and protein needs can be overwhelming and quite confusing, Liz will leave you with pro tips and convenient, yet effective ways to ensure you’re supporting your body’s needs, whether it’s after a workout, during chronic illness, or throughout the aging process.
Liz Wolfe is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Certified Personal Trainer who encourages women - all women, but especially the 40-ish crowd—to embrace their inner (and outer) badass using nutrition, supplement, and fitness strategies that serve both their metabolism and their sanity. Liz is the author of the Wall Street Journal Bestseller Eat the Yolks, host of the award-winning Balanced Bites Podcast, creator of the Own Your Metabolism and Own Your Fitness programs, and founder of the IdealAge line of supplements and (soon!) skincare.

Episode 314: Skin Vitality & Natural Botox with The Facial Cupping Expert
Finally, the long awaited episode with The Facial Cupping Expert, Sakina Di Pace, is here! Learn more about how facial cupping can be beneficial for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, cysts, and cystic acne. While facial cupping is growing in popularity, Sakina wants to ensure that folks are educated in how to use their cups appropriately and when cupping may actually not be the best fit - like hormonal acne and rosacea.
Sakina has practiced acupuncture globally for the past 12 years. She began using Facial Cupping, in addition to her needles, to help alleviate the pain of patients with nerve conditions such as peripheral neuropathy, and to stimulate muscle strength in paralysis cases such as Bell’s Palsy. Realising how beneficial Facial Cupping was to her patients, she decided to incorporate the technique into her cosmetic acupuncture treatments.
Sakina is the creator of the ‘6-step Facial Cupping Protocol for Beginners’, along with a popular and accredited ‘Facial Cupping For Professionals Course’ that helps teach those who want to become qualified in offering facial cupping to their clients.

Episode 313: Natural Allergy Support
When Rachel, our Lead Practitioner, works with her clients in our 1:1 membership, she goes “inflammation hunting” to figure out the root cause of the clients' ailments. Seasonal allergies are no different. Where there is a time and place for antihistamines like Claritin and Zyrtec, we want to get to the bottom of why you’re suffering from seasonal allergies in the first place.

Episode 312: Estrogen Dominance & Detox: What You Need to Know
Grab your DUTCH test and your headphones because this episode is a companion guide to your test, specifically the estrogen section. Learn the symptoms of estrogen dominance, how excessive estrogen can lead to diseases like PCOS and endometriosis, and why estrogen dominance is so common in this day and age. If you suspect you have estrogen dominance, you’ll learn about the supplement and food as medicine approaches we use in practice to help balance hormones. The biggest take-away from today? Never underestimate the importance of regular bowel movements.

Episode 311: Supporting Your Hormones with Food & Nutrition
Food can be medicine, especially when it comes to balancing your hormones. In this episode, you'll learn how to make simple and effective shifts to your nutrition for hormonal health. We're talking about caffeine intake, seed cycling, detox, and minerals. While we love a good functional lab test here at Team FN, you really can (and should!) move the needle with your hormone health just by starting with the basics - food!

Episode 310: Ways to Naturally Increase Progesterone
Progesterone has always been an unsung hero in our eyes, but now it’s getting its time in the sun - which is a good thing! Progesterone is super important for mood regulation, brain clarity, and thyroid health. That being said, it’s a very common hormone imbalance and the conventional solution is to treat with synthetic Progestin. At Team FN, we start with a root cause approach. Today we’re going to talk about WHY low progesterone is so common, how to identify if you have it, and what you can do about it.

Episode 309: IMPACT: A Non-Traditional Way to Build a Business

This podcast is a live recording from the Manifest Your Wealth private group where Erin answers questions about her new program IMPACT. This program sheds light on how Erin grows a simple idea into a full blown program in a very non-traditional way - by using energy and a whole lot of self trust.

You’ll learn why magnesium is important, how common deficiencies are (and why!) and ways to increase your magnesium levels through supplementation and topicals. Rachel dives into the newest functional lab test we’ve introduced to our 1:1 Membership- the HTMA test, and shares how it can be an effective and affordable way to find lifestyle and nutrition recommendations for her patients.
