In this episode, Bethany sits down with Kari Davis of The Well Team for a powerful conversation about holistic wellness, essential oils, stress, the nervous system, and creating a more peaceful home.

If you’re a mom who feels overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted, or like your body is constantly stuck in fight-or-flight mode, this conversation will give you some practical things to think about—not only in your own body, but also in the environment you’re creating inside your home.

Kari shares her personal journey into holistic health, including how grief, stress, and losing her husband at a young age led her to explore natural approaches to physical, emotional, and mental wellness. We talk about the connection between chronic stress and the nervous system, how synthetic fragrances and household products can add to our overall exposure to chemicals, and why simplifying your home may be more beneficial than trying to change everything at once.

We also dive into essential oils and aromatherapy, including how Kari uses oils to support emotional regulation, create a calmer environment, manage odors naturally, and replace some conventional household products. She explains why sourcing and quality matter and shares some of her favorite oils and blends for stress, focus, calming, and creating a more peaceful home.

And if the idea of “detoxing your home” sounds completely overwhelming—don’t worry. Kari gives us a much more realistic approach: start small, go room by room, remove synthetic fragrances first, simplify where you can, and give yourself plenty of grace.

We also talk about motherhood, ADHD, anxiety, grief, faith, community, and why wellness doesn’t have to mean spending a fortune or pursuing perfection.
