Episode 129: Jodi Scott

Heather Gray sits down with Jodi Scott, co-founder of Green Goo, to talk about plant-based first aid, clean topical ingredients, and the science-backed relationship between stress, inflammation, and skin health. Jodi explains her background in health psychology and psychoneuroimmunology (PNI), the intersection of psychology, the nervous system, and immune function and how it shaped Green Goo’s approach to topical care.

You’ll learn why many “natural living” households still keep chemical-heavy products in their first-aid cabinets, how Green Goo formulates products from whole plants (rather than pre-made extracts), and how a simple self-care ritual like “Sanctuary Sunday” can help you become more present and supportive of your body. Jodi also highlights popular Green Goo formulas used for cuts, scrapes, bug bites, sunburn, chafing, dry skin, eczema, psoriasis, and more, plus why hydration and barrier support are foundational to “high-performance” skin.

Key Topics Covered

What psychoneuroimmunology is and why it matters for wellness

The connection between stress response (fight-or-flight) and skin sensitivity

Why “clean living” often stops at the first-aid cabinet and how to change that

The concept of nutritional skincare: “feeding” your skin like you feed your body

How ingredient “subtraction” (removing irritants) can be a powerful first step

Why Green Goo is formulated as a multi-herb synergy, not a single-ingredient fix

A breakdown of Green Goo’s most-loved products and how people use them

What Is Green Goo?

Green Goo creates plant-based first aid and personal care products designed to be effective first, while also being clean and sustainable. Jodi shares that the brand name “Green Goo” stuck because customers remembered it, and because many formulas naturally have a green hue from real plant properties.

A key differentiator: Green Goo emphasizes in-house extraction and formulation, bringing plants into their own facility to preserve potency and integrity in their custom herbal oils.

Episode 128: Shay Pascale
Bioenergetics Beat Show Notes: Breaking Free From Dieting Cycles in Perimenopause

If you’ve been “doing everything right” - eating clean, working out hard, tracking calories, but your body still feels stuck (fatigue, weight changes, acne, IBS, insomnia, anxiety), this episode is for you. Host Heather Gray sits down with functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner and health coach Shay Pascale, FDNP, to unpack why midlife weight loss and hormone shifts are not just a willpower issue and how a whole-body, root-cause approach can help you finally break the cycle.

In this conversation, Shay shares her personal journey from yo-yo dieting and gut issues to metabolic stability and sustainable strength, plus the practical steps she uses with clients to rebuild metabolism, support hormones, improve digestion, and shift identity-based mindset patterns that keep people stuck.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• Why calorie cutting often backfires in perimenopause
• How macros (protein/carbs/fats) support metabolic repair
• Why strength training is essential for women over 30
• What progressive overload is and how to apply it
• Why recurring SIBO symptoms may require deeper testing
• How gut health, hormones, and metabolism are connected
• How identity-based mindset shifts can unlock lasting results

Practical Tools Shay Uses to “Break the Chains”

1) Track to create awareness (not restriction).
Shay recommends tracking your food for 7 days to understand your baseline habits. The goal isn’t obsession, it’s clarity. When you know what you’re actually eating, you can make strategic adjustments based on data instead of frustration.

2) Prioritize macros over calories.
Instead of cutting calories lower and lower, focus on balancing protein, carbohydrates, and fats, the macronutrients that make up your calories. Adequate protein and balanced meals support better body composition, energy, and hormone health without extreme restriction. (Micronutrients - vitamins and minerals - are the “micro” layer that further supports overall health.)

Key shift: Move from “eat less” to “fuel better.”

3) Train for muscle, especially after 30.
Muscle mass naturally declines with age, which lowers metabolic rate. The solution isn’t more cardio, it’s intentional strength training. Shay recommends 3–4 hours per week of structured resistance training, paired with proper nutrition, to rebuild metabolism and support longevity.

4) Use progressive overload.
Progressive overload means gradually increasing weight, reps, sets, or intensity over time. This signals your body to maintain and build muscle

In this episode of Bioenergetic Beats, host Heather Gray sits down with entrepreneur and investor Ari Rastegar for a practical, mindset-forward conversation about biohacking, resilience, and longevity without the overwhelm.

Ari shares how early health-conscious roots weren’t enough to protect him from feeling “off” as life stress increased. After a wake-up call from a close friend (and spinal neurosurgeon) who reviewed his bloodwork, Ari began rebuilding his wellness from the ground up: removing inflammatory inputs, addressing food sensitivities, restoring key biomarkers, and prioritizing emotional regulation as seriously as physical training.

The biggest takeaway: you don’t need fancy gadgets to change your health. Ari breaks down the highest bang-for-your-buck foundational upgrades, especially around water quality and emotional fitness and explains why coherence, gratitude, and consistent routines translate into better decision-making, clearer leadership, and more sustainable energy.

Key Topics Discussed

• A Health Wake-Up Call: How Ari’s bloodwork, anxiety, and chronic stress led him to reevaluate his habits and rebuild his health from the ground up.
• The 80/20 of Biohacking: Why foundational pillars - clean nutrition, removing sugar and alcohol, addressing food sensitivities, quality sleep, and movement, create more impact than high-tech wellness gadgets.
• Emotional Fitness & Coherence: Treating gratitude, joy, and heart-centered emotions like trainable skills to improve nervous system regulation, resilience, and clarity in decision-making.
• High-Impact, Low-Cost Upgrades: Simple changes like improving drinking water quality, filtering shower water, and adding minerals back into distilled water for better hydration and recovery.
• Meditation & Daily Priming Practices: Combining breathwork, gratitude exercises, visualization, and meditation to reduce stress and build long-term emotional stability.
• The Gift of Failure: Reframing setbacks, whether in business or health, as catalysts for growth, awareness, and transformation.

Guest Spotlight: Ari Rastegar

Ari is an entrepreneur and professional investor who approaches wellness like an investment portfolio: focus on high-impact fundamentals, build consistency, and measure the returns - physically, emotionally, and professionally.

Ari’s Book

The Gift of Failure: an autobiographical look at business setbacks, health challenges, and the lessons that shaped Ari’s resilience. Available in print and audio (narrated by Ari).
