Here’s the thing—just because someone’s wearing a white coat doesn’t mean they have all the answers. In Part 2, Jill and I pick up where we left off and dive straight into the deep end. We talk about the pushy vaccine talk, why tongue tie revisions might be a total scam (yep, I said it), and how even the “crunchy” holistic world can be just as profit-driven as Big Pharma. We also get into COVID, fear tactics, and how moms are expected to make huge decisions with zero real support—while also keeping their kids alive and maybe brushing their teeth once a day. It’s messy, it’s honest, and it’s exactly the kind of convo I wish more moms were having.

Let’s be real—the first year of motherhood is basically a blur of leaking boobs, zero sleep, and wondering if you’ve totally lost yourself. In Part 1 of my convo with Jill Wright (a fellow mom and chiropractor I met on Instagram, because social media does occasionally do something right), we get into all of it. We talk about why that first year feels like you got hit by a hormonal freight train, how Jill’s background in holistic health influenced the choices she made as a mom, and why planning your nursery is cute—but maybe researching vaccines and daycare matters more. No fluff. No pretending. Just two moms saying the quiet parts out loud.

Welcome back y'all. This solo episode of Being Different is going to be about problems AND solutions. I've been thinking about the differences between stay at home moms versus working moms. And I'm going to share my ideas for a new outdoor play program at my son's school.

Look, I've been on both sides of the situation. I have worked 60-70 hour weeks, closing high pressure deals and now I'm a stay at home mom with three kids. I don't like that people make that distinction because being a stay at home mom, in my opinion, is every bit as hard as being a working mom. It's just a different kind of hard - but it's relentless and it's never ending, and it's thankless and you're not getting paid.

Also, we've got to make some changes in school priorities for our kids. It's so important for children to have free play, risk-taking opportunities, and less helicopter parenting. Tune in to find out how I plan to make it happen...

In this episode, I’m back with Roman Bystrianyk, co-author of Dissolving Illusions, and y’all—we go deep. We break down the story behind polio, and spoiler alert: it’s not what we were taught. From DDT and lead arsenate to the shifting definitions of polio cases post-vaccine rollout, Roman shows how much of what we “know” has been shaped by fear, not facts. We talk about how public health declined when we started relying on meds instead of nutrition, and how the obsession with vaccination overshadowed basic immune system support like sunlight, vitamin C, and, I don’t know—eating real food?

We also hit on MMR, the autism connection, and the crazy idea that maybe, just maybe, you can take charge of your health without waiting on the government or your pediatrician to get it right. If you’re a parent trying to make sense of a very confusing system, this is one you need to hear.

And yes—I’m still fired up. Let’s go.

Today’s episode is a real eye-opener. I’m sitting down with Roman Bystrianyk, co-author of Dissolving Illusions, and we’re diving into some seriously uncomfortable truths about the Industrial Revolution. We’ve all heard about how vaccines saved the day, right? Well, Roman’s here to flip that narrative. We talk about the grim reality of life back then—think poor sanitation, awful working conditions, and unhealthy living.

Roman breaks it down: it wasn’t vaccines that dropped those mortality rates, it was public health improvements, like better living conditions, cleaner water, and, yep, hygiene. We also unpack the history of vaccines, how people fought back against mandatory shots, and how, shocker, a lot of the time they didn’t work the way we were told.

This episode is a wake-up call, and trust me, it’ll make you rethink a lot of what you thought you knew about health, medicine, and how we got here today. And that's not all-- stay tuned for part II, dropping next Thursday.

If you're tired of feeling like garbage and popping supplements like candy, this episode is gonna blow your mind. Trust me, I went from thinking this was gonna be another nerdy health talk to being completely mind-blown about how light literally controls EVERYTHING in our bodies.

Today I’m unpacking what it really means to set ‘stretch goals’ for myself and my kids—beyond just keeping them from turning into little jerks. Inspired by a recent convo, I’m reflecting on how we can prepare our children to be like Joshua—ready to take on God’s plan, no matter where it points.

From dealing with daily messes without losing our cool to thinking big about their futures, I’m exploring how embracing flexibility and readiness for change is crucial. This episode is all about pushing boundaries and preparing our kids to not only face the world but to make it better, wherever and however God calls them. Tune in for some straight talk on making life’s unexpected turns work in our favor and why teaching our kids to adapt is the best way forward.

Hey y’all! This week, I’m sitting down with John Brock—my husband Luke’s boss and business partner—who also happens to be one of the most unexpected, unconventional lawyers you’ll ever meet.

John didn’t take the typical path to success. As a kid, he struggled in school, barely knew how to read in elementary, and had to fight for every win. Now? He’s running one of the most forward-thinking law firms in Knoxville. We talk about what it took to get here, the hustle (he’s a 4 a.m. workout guy, y’all), and how he and his wife Stacy built a life and marriage that could handle the chaos of it all.

But John’s not just about winning cases—he’s about building something different. He’s creating a law firm where young attorneys actually want to stay, where work-life balance matters, and where the old-school, burnout culture of law gets left behind. And, of course, we get into what’s next—mission work, maybe a Nashville expansion, and why he’s always looking for the next challenge.

If you’ve ever felt like the traditional path wasn’t for you, this one’s gonna hit home. John’s proof that you can do things your own way—and do them well.
