Shownotes
If you’re heading into the holidays feeling drained or unfocused, this episode is your reset button.
Before the year ends, I’m sharing my personal health gift guide—the real tools and rituals I use to support my brain, boost my energy, and improve my sleep.
I walk you through the five pillars I rely on:
• mitochondrial support
• circadian rhythm, environment and light hygiene
• lymphatic drainage for clearer thinking
• sleep optimization
• blood work
From red light therapy and blue-light–blocking tools to electrolytes, creatine, nontoxic cookware, and the blood work I swear by—these are the science-backed wellness picks I’m gifting to myself and the people I love.
Let’s head into the new year feeling stronger, clearer, and truly supported.
