As an Integrative Health Practitioner I have come to realize that we simply haven't been taught how to optimize our health, and that the average person has habits that are negatively impacting their health, due to this lack of knowledge, through no fault of their own. Public health and our school system simply don't teach us enough about nutrition, sleep, stress, gut health or how interconnected our bodies are! Modern life has us more sleep deprived, stressed out and the sickest ever, and I believe it is time to bring this education to you, so that you CAN be empowered in your health and you can then make the right choices for you and your family. The choices you make today impact your future 1 year, 5 years, 10 years + from now. It is never too early to start looking after your health, as Health is your TRUE wealth....without it what do you have? I use this podcast to support my passion project - non-profit, Girls Matter (www.girlsmatter.ca), breaking the poverty cycle 1 girl, 1 family, 1 village at a time. The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn’t free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her own children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause. Listeners are invited to donate as well. Learn more here in this short video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R3-xqzJLZW14om1PhFClcU_oRSZ8zgip/view?usp=share_link

Beyond Symptom Relief: Healing Allergies and Eczema Naturally | Ep 271
✨ In this empowering episode, Christine Lauer shares how her daughter’s eczema and her husband’s severe allergies opened the door to a whole new world of healing.🌿 Melissa and Christine talk about inflammation, omega-3s, dry blood spot testing, bioenergetics, and gentle cold laser acupuncture as ways to support the body naturally.💚 This conversation is a beautiful reminder that real healing starts with understanding the root cause and trusting the body’s wisdom.🔥 A must-listen for anyone ready to move beyond symptom management and into deeper wellness.Offers:Our Book (episode 249) - Empowered: The Journey From Victim Island To Solution City: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1989849776?psc=1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDpQuantum Life Mastery School: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/quantum-life-mastery-schoolIntroduction video about Girls Matter: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R3-xqzJLZW14om1PhFClcU_oRSZ8zgip/viewThe Light Circle Membership:https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/thelightcircle-aligned-coreMeet Your Unconscious Mind Workshop: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/umFREE 7 Day Trial: NuCalm Products to recalibrate your nervous system / improve your sleep:: https://nucalm.comUse my promo code at checkout: YGHJ to get 15% off your monthly subscription, every month. Episode Summary:In this insightful Poda Palooza episode, Melissa sits down with Christine Lauer to explore a natural, root-cause approach to allergies, sensitivities, eczema, and inflammation. Christine shares how her journey began with her infant daughter’s severe eczema and her husband’s debilitating seasonal allergies. After exhausting conventional options with little relief, she discovered nutrition, omega-3 education, bioenergetics, muscle testing, and gentle cold laser acupuncture.As Christine learned more, she began connecting the dots between inflammation, diet, energetic imbalance, and the body’s innate healing wisdom. She explains how bioenergetics and cold laser acupuncture can help the body recalibrate its response to substances that once triggered reactions. She also highlights the value of at-home dry blood spot testingto measure inflammation and fatty acid balance, giving clients tangible insights into what is happening inside their bodies.Melissa and Christine also dive into the modern omega-3 deficiency crisis, the poor quality of many supplements on the market, the impact of toxic food and environmental exposure, and the need for proactive care long before symptoms become chronic. This episode is a hopeful reminder that the body is intelligent, healing is possible, and there are powerful tools available beyond symptom management.Key TakeawaysThe body is designed to heal. With the right support, it can recalibrate and function more efficiently.Skin issues like eczema often reflect deeper imbalance. Inflammation, food exposure, and other internal stressors can all play a role.Allergies and sensitivities are not always lifelong sentences. Christine shares powerful examples of people finding real relief.Bioenergetics and cold laser acupuncture offer a gentle approach. These methods support the body in recognizing substances more accurately.Dry blood spot testing adds valuable clarity. It helps people see markers of inflammation and fatty acid imbalance on paper.Omega-3 deficiency is widespread. Restoring balance between omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids is essential for lowering inflammation.Supplement quality matters deeply. A label may look impressive while delivering very little actual benefit.Prevention matters. Caring for the body early creates a much stronger foundation for long-term wellness.Self-trust matters too. Christine’s final wisdom encourages listeners to clear doubt and listen to their inner guidance.About the Guest: Christine helps people struggling with allergies and sensitivities who are tired of managing symptoms without real answers. Inspired by her husband’s severe seasonal allergies and her daughter’s eczema, she’s spent over 20 years helping people find relief without shots or endless medications. Her work focuses on understanding and reducing inflammation using at-home dry blood spot testing, along with bioenergetics and gentle cold laser acupuncture to support the body’s ability to heal itself.Contact: Website: https://www.noallergiesplease.comWebsite: theomegacoach.comEmail: [email protected]:FB: facebook.com/noallergiesplsIG: instagram.com/noallergiesplsYT: youtube.com/noallergiespleasepageDIY Test Guide: christinelauer.caOmegas, Polyphenols and the BalanceTest: theomegacoach.comAbout the Host:Melissa is an Integrative Health Practitioner and a Board Designated Master Trainer of Hypnotherapy, Trainer of NLP, Time Line Therapy®, and NLP Results Coaching, helping people get to the root cause of their health issues and then get lasting results.

✨ In this heart-opening episode, Kathleen Maxwell shares how her breast cancer journey led her into powerful emotional healing work that helps people release fear, guilt, anger, and self-doubt.💛 Melissa and Kathleen talk about trapped emotions, the inner critic, intuition, emotional hygiene, and how healing old patterns can transform every area of life.🌿 This conversation is a beautiful invitation to clear the emotional weight you were never meant to carry and come home to yourself.🔥 A deeply meaningful episode for anyone ready to quiet the noise within and step into more peace, freedom, and self-love.Gift: Inner Voice Shift (need link from guest)Offers:Our Book (episode 249) - Empowered: The Journey From Victim Island To Solution City: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1989849776?psc=1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDpQuantum Life Mastery School: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/quantum-life-mastery-schoolIntroduction video about Girls Matter: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R3-xqzJLZW14om1PhFClcU_oRSZ8zgip/viewThe Light Circle Membership:https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/thelightcircle-aligned-coreMeet Your Unconscious Mind Workshop: https://amplifyimpactacademy.com/umFREE 7 Day Trial: NuCalm Products to recalibrate your nervous system / improve your sleep:: https://nucalm.comUse my promo code at checkout: YGHJ to get 15% off your monthly subscription, every month. Episode Summary:In this powerful Poda Palooza episode, Melissa sits down with Kathleen Maxwell to explore the deep connection between emotional healing, self-worth, and lasting transformation. Kathleen shares how her own breast cancer journey led her beyond conventional treatment and into the world of complementary healing, hypnosis, emotional release work, and breakthrough modalities designed to clear trapped emotions from the body.Kathleen explains how unresolved emotions such as anger, fear, guilt, sadness, and depression can stay stored within us for years, shaping our behaviors, relationships, confidence, and health. Through emotional release processes, she helps clients identify the root of these patterns, often tracing them back to childhood, generational conditioning, or even past-life experiences. Once those emotional roots are released, clients often feel lighter, calmer, clearer, and more connected to their intuition.Melissa and Kathleen also discuss the inner critic, emotional hygiene, inherited patterns, and the profound impact this work can have across generations. This conversation is a beautiful reminder that healing is not only physical. It is emotional, mental, spiritual, and transformational. When we clear the old patterns weighing us down, we create more peace within ourselves and ripple that peace outward into the world.Key TakeawaysTrapped emotions can affect health and behavior. Unreleased anger, fear, guilt, sadness, and shame can weigh on the body and mind over time.Emotional healing goes far beyond symptom relief. Clearing old emotional patterns opens the door to confidence, joy, peace, and self-trust.The root often lives in the past. Emotional triggers may begin in childhood, family conditioning, or other experiences held in the deeper mind.When the root is released, the pattern can collapse. Kathleen describes this like pulling the bottom piece from a Jenga tower.The inner critic is often conditioned, not truth. Many of the harsh voices in our heads were learned from others and replayed over time.Emotional hygiene matters. Just like physical hygiene, our emotional world needs regular care and clearing.Healing ripples through generations. When one person does this work, children and grandchildren can benefit from the shift.Intuition gets louder when internal noise gets quieter. As emotional clutter clears, inner wisdom becomes easier to hear.Self-love changes everything. Kathleen’s mission centers on helping people reconnect with their worth and live from joy.About the Guest: Kathleen coaches purpose-driven professionals who paradoxically find themselves struggling with fear procrastination, self-sabotage, and imposter syndrome.Kathleen leads her clients through emotional release processes that result in breakthroughs that last. She empowers her clients to stop second-guessing themselves and to start leading the lives they were always meant to live.Contact: Website: https://yoursuccesscoachkathleen.comAbout the Host:Melissa is an Integrative Health Practitioner and a Board Designated Master Trainer of Hypnotherapy, Trainer of NLP, Time Line Therapy®, and NLP Results Coaching, helping people get to the root cause of their health issues and then get lasting results.

These courses teach life skills and anyone can take them, if you want to be a better leader, parent, partner, be empowered in your own life, these courses are for you! Melissa’s passion project is her non-profit, Girls Matter (www.girlsmatter.ca), breaking the poverty cycle 1 girl, 1 family, 1 village at a time. The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn’t free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her own children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause.
