Randi, Rachel and Jodie talk about raising emotional intelligence, disconnecting, connecting back in and how to navigate your nervous system in today's stimulating environments.

I sit down with my mother Lynn and my brother-in-law and talk science. He shares some of the studies he’s been apart of and educates us on one of the most effective tools for a healthy brain.

Dr. Jay M. J. R. Carr (Researcher)

Dr. Jay Carr is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of British Columbia (Okanagan Campus). His work focuses on the mechanisms governing blood flow to the brain and how it adapts to various physiological stresses.

• Primary Research Focus: He investigates cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR)—the ability of brain blood vessels to dilate or constrict in response to changes in carbon dioxide (𝐶𝑂2) and oxygen levels.
• Key Findings (2025–2026):
  • Hypoxic Vasodilation: His research details how the brain maintains oxygen delivery during low-oxygen states (hypoxia) through mechanisms involving nitric oxide and potassium channels.
  • Exercise and Brain Health: He has explored how different modes of exercise, such as interval training versus continuous aerobic exercise, impact cerebral endothelial function.
  • Lactate Metabolism: Recent 2025 studies involve how the brain preferentially uses lactate for fuel during intense exercise or infusion, which may help preserve glucose for other brain functions.

Escape Debt. Experience the World.

In this episode, I sit down with Michelle Hargrave, author of Get Bendy, for an honest conversation about money, travel, and rewriting the rules we were taught to follow.

Michelle and I share our unfiltered journeys—from shame-shrouded debt numbers to becoming debt-free with money in the bank in just a few short years. We talk about what actually worked, what we had to unlearn, and how we educated ourselves to take back control of our lives.

If you’ve ever felt trapped by debt this episode is proof that escape is possible—and practical.

Rachel and Jodie reflect on 2025, what they're bringing to 2026 and why the middle of winter is actually the worst time for New Year's resolutions.

Join us for a proper East Coast Christmas in Justin's great grandmothers kitchen. We discuss origins and history of Christmas traditions - until we start crackin' beers and Santa shows up.

If you're our parents, don't listen to this episode... unless you're my mom, because you were there.
Full transparency, we did this episode at the end of our staff Christmas party. Nothing was off the table. Enjoy ALL of us and all our untold stories.

This week Rachel and Jodie have a light conversation about plant medicines; aka drugs. How they're getting off of some and on to others. They also talk about how violent roosters can be, how your environment needs to change in order to truly heal and lastly, a brief celebratory song for Dax's 11th birthday (Jodie's dog, BFFL and a Frequency Sound 528 local).

Jacob and Jodie talk about asthma attacks, physical ailments, irrational fears and past life traumas. We discuss if AI is strengthening our brains or weakening them, as well as coping mechanisms in an over stimulated, digital world.
