In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dave Watumull, co-founder of AX3, to explore one of the most researched yet underrated supplements in the longevity space: astaxanthin. Dave shares his origin story of working in microalgae ponds in Hawaii as a teenager and how a serious eye injury first drew him into the science of oxidative stress and inflammation.

They dig into how astaxanthin works at the cellular level, why it benefits everything from cognition and joints to endurance and heart health, and the NIH study where it extended lifespan by 12%. Dave and Elizabeth also unpack the difference between lifespan and healthspan, and why protecting your health now matters more than waiting until something goes wrong.

This episode is a reminder that some of the most powerful longevity tools aren't complicated. They're just not talked about enough.

In today’s episode, Elizabeth sits down with Sabrina Rudin, founder of Spring Cafe and author of Healthy with a Side of Happy, to explore the idea that what’s meant for you cannot miss you. Sabrina shares her approach to wellness, from intuitive, mostly plant-based eating to simple holistic remedies, and how focusing on abundance over restriction can transform your relationship with food and health.

They also dive into Sabrina’s personal journey through postpartum OCD, anxiety, and healing, and how practices like CBT and surfing helped her rebuild trust in herself and quiet intrusive thoughts. This conversation is about letting go of control, trusting your path, and understanding that everything, even the detours, is guiding you exactly where you’re meant to be.

In today’s episode, Elizabeth goes solo to talk about shifting away from rigid wellness rules and into a more balanced, sustainable approach. She shares a life update on starting low-dose Synthroid while trying to conceive and how it’s changed her energy and mindset around medication.

Elizabeth explores the idea of soft discipline and why wellness doesn’t need to be all or nothing to actually work. She opens up about how burnout, mental clutter, and constant scrolling have been affecting her lately and what she’s doing to reset. She also reflects on finding joy outside of productivity, whether that’s cooking, reading, or simply doing less.

This episode is a reminder that wellness can be flexible, personal, and supportive rather than strict or overwhelming.
