Ever feel stuck in life, weighed down by expectations, or trapped by past experiences? You’re not alone! In this episode of Everything’s Messy Podcast, I sit down with the incredible Kylie Cross—a life coach and podcaster—who shares her powerful journey of transformation. 💫

We kick things off reminiscing about how we connected through our shared love of raw, unfiltered conversations on growth and authenticity. From there, Kylie takes us on a deep dive into her childhood struggles, including how something as simple as sweating held her back from fully embracing life (yep, sweating! 🥵). Moving to Texas became a pivotal moment, pushing her to step beyond self-imposed limits.

But Kylie’s story runs even deeper. She opens up about the trauma she endured as a child and how it shaped her mindset, leading her to play it safe for much of her life. As she navigated becoming a stay-at-home mom, she found herself grappling with identity, self-worth, and the expectations society places on women. Can you relate? 🤯

We also dive into marriage, relationships, and setting boundaries—because let’s be real, learning to honor your own needs while supporting others is no small feat. 💕 Parenting teenagers? That’s another rollercoaster, and we unpack how both of us have evolved as moms, embracing growth alongside our kids.

Kylie’s journey ultimately led her to life coaching, where she now empowers others to break through personal barriers with a faith-centered approach. Her message? Surrender to the process, reassess what’s holding you back, and step into your most authentic self. 🌟

This episode is packed with wisdom, real talk, and those “aha” moments that make you rethink the way you approach life. So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and get ready to be inspired! 🎧✨

In this episode of Everythingâ s Messy Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Mary Beth Schrudder, a transformational life coach with an incredible story of resilience, self-discovery, and personal growth. ð ªâ ¨

Mary Beth takes us on a raw and heartfelt journey, starting with her childhood in the 70s, navigating the waves of her parents' divorce, and uncovering family secrets that shaped her early years. Through a unique lens (and a surprising psychic reading!), she discovered a deeper understanding of her familyâ s struggles with alcoholism and abusive behaviors. ð ·ð

We dove headfirst into the heavy stuffâ how sensitive souls often turn to addictive behaviors to numb anxiety. Mary Beth gets super real about her own battle with alcohol, starting at just 11 years old (yes, ELEVEN ð ±), and how it became her coping mechanism. But here's the beautiful part: she bravely decided to leave alcohol behind and step into a life of clarity and empowerment. ð «ð ¹â ¨

And it doesnâ t stop there! Mary Beth shared how she used the principles of the Law of Attraction to completely transform her mindset and her life. ð She broke down how our thoughts and beliefs shape our reality and offered tangible ways to start shifting that energy today. Cue the chills! â ¨ð ­

We even got into dating and relationships (oh yes, she went there)! ð From the importance of staying sober on first dates (no more awkward wine-fueled decisions) to figuring out your core values, Mary Beth's advice is gold. ð

This episode is packed with so much wisdom and inspiration, reminding us all that no matter how messy life gets, we can rewrite our story. ð ð Tune in, and let Mary Bethâ s words inspire you to take action, embrace your authentic self, and create the life youâ ve always dreamed of.

So, grab a cozy seat (or throw this on during your next messy multitasking moment), and letâ s dive into this transformational episode together! ð §â ¨

In this episode of Everything’s Messy Podcast, I reflect on January, whoa, and I want to take a moment to send love and gratitude to all the first responders, volunteers, and animal shelters supporting communities affected by the devastating fires in California. My heart goes out to everyone impacted. 💔

Today, we’re tackling a topic close to my heart: thyroid health, including hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and Hashimoto’s. This issue is affecting so many people, and the symptoms can be confusing and frustrating. Let’s break it all down! 🧐

We’ll go over the symptoms of both hypo and hyperthyroidism, from weight changes and fatigue to mood swings and more. I’m also sharing insights from the amazing Dr. Isabella Wentz, who has been a game-changer in my own wellness journey. Her focus on root causes and actionable solutions is nothing short of life-changing. 🌱

This episode is packed with tips on:

• Advocating for yourself when your labs come back "normal" but you know something is off. 🩺
• The importance of full thyroid panels (not just TSH!). 🧬
• Foods to embrace (and avoid) for better thyroid function. 🥗
• Why gluten-free living has been a game-changer for so many with Hashimoto’s (myself included!).
• Small, sustainable steps to take back control of your health. 💪

So grab your favorite beverage, settle in, and let’s dive into the world of thyroid health together. 🫖 And remember, it’s all about progress, not perfection.

Don’t forget to check out the show notes for Dr. Wentz’s resources and other helpful links. If you enjoyed this episode, I’d love it if you’d leave a review, share it with a friend, or drop me a message with your thoughts. Until next time, keep it messy! 🎙️✨

In this episode of Everything’s Messy Podcast, I’m joined by Ana Barker—EMT, mother of two, and co-founder of Alien Beam Creations, a personalized laser engraving business. Ana’s story is a powerful testament to trusting your instincts, embracing the journey of motherhood, and redefining wellness on your own terms.

Ana opens up about her wellness journey, starting with the challenges of her daughter’s severe infant eczema. Her decision to question traditional treatments and explore alternative approaches led her to transformative discoveries about health, vaccines, and trusting her body’s natural wisdom.

She also dives into the fascinating concept of Elimination Communication, an intuitive way of catching your baby’s cues for potty training, which could lead to an earlier diaper-free transition.

One of the most moving parts of this episode is Ana’s recounting of her home birth experience—a moment of raw empowerment and connection. Ana’s husband caught their baby in the shower, offering a stark contrast to her previous hospital birth. She challenges societal norms around childbirth, encouraging listeners to rethink the medicalized approach to one of life’s most natural processes.

From advocating for natural eczema treatments to empowering women to listen to their bodies, Ana’s insights are a breath of fresh air for anyone navigating the messy, beautiful chaos of motherhood and wellness.

This episode is packed with inspiration, thought-provoking ideas, and actionable takeaways for anyone seeking a more empowered approach to health, parenting, and life. So, grab your favorite drink, settle in, and let’s get messy!
