Ep. #141 On today’s episode of Pursuit of Wellness, I sit down with the amazing Sami Spalter to chat about all things fitness, nutrition, friendships, and healing. We dig into our fitness journeys, the highs and lows of finding what works for our bodies, and the struggles of navigating trauma, coping mechanisms, and saying “yes” to life’s challenges. We also dive into the power of female friendships, how to build your support circle, and why it’s crucial to nurture your “front row” who cheer you on. From hitting rock bottom to lifting weights, we talk about finding confidence, feeling grounded, and embracing our unique paths. Plus, we get real about food choices, hormones, and why moving your body is a privilege worth celebrating!

Ep. #92 On today’s episode of Pursuit of Wellness, I am joined by Sweetgreen’s co-founder Nicolas Jammet. He explains how a senior project transformed into a nationwide movement aimed at redefining fast food through transparent, nutritious offerings. Nicolas highlights the evolution of Sweetgreen's menu, which emphasizes protein-rich dishes and the use of wholesome ingredients like extra virgin olive oil. He also shares insights into his personal wellness journey and how significant life events like marriage and fatherhood have influenced his health perspective.

Ep. #134 On today’s episode of Pursuit of Wellness, I’m excited to share a recap of my recent EuroTrip, with all the fun and, of course, some of the chaos—like flight delays and trying to stick to my routine on the go. This solo chat is all about getting back on track with morning routines and habit stacking. Personally, I’ve found that cutting out early morning decisions and staying consistent with meals and workouts makes all the difference. I’ll also walk you through my skincare routine, how I manage supplements, and give some tips on starting your own routine. If you're looking for motivation to stay consistent and build a strong morning routine, this episode is for you!
