Description
As the seasons shift, we are once again bringing our attention to the lymph, lungs and the everyday practices that can support our whole-body wellness.
In this special Wellness Warrior Podcast relaunch, I’m joined by Alicia Long, NHP—founder of Sunnyside Up Wellness and my co-founder of The Cleanse Club—for a powerful conversation with Kim Rogers, founder of RogersHood Apothecary and widely known as the Worm Queen.
Kim shares the personal health journey that inspired her to begin exploring parasites, herbal wellness and the body’s natural elimination pathways. Together, we discuss what it can look like to approach seasonal cleansing with curiosity, self-love and community—without treating our bodies as though they are broken or need to be fixed.
In this episode, we explore:
• Kim Rogers’ personal wellness journey
• Parasite exposure, symptoms and common misconceptions
• The lymphatic system and why movement matters
• The connection between the lymph, lungs and elimination pathways
• Kim’s “three P’s”: peeing, pooping and perspiring
• RogersHood herbal wellness kits
• Preparing the body before beginning a cleanse
• Seasonal cleansing as a supportive, layered practice
• The value of accountability and cleansing in community
The information in this conversation is as relevant today as it was when we first gathered—and public conversations surrounding parasites, lymphatic wellness and holistic health continue to grow.
