  • The Truth About BPA-Free: Microplastics, Hormone Disruptors & Baby Bottle Risks | Dr. Robin Mesnage
    Plastics aren’t just polluting the planet. They’re showing up in our bodies in ways we never imagined. From our brain to our bloodstream, even fertility treatments, microplastics are everywhere.This week’s guest, Dr. Robin Mesnage, toxicologist and researcher, reveals why microplastics and pesticides are far more pervasive than we realize, from our kitchen cupboards to our hospitals. Drawing on cutting-edge research, he explains how plastics interact with our hormones, fertility, and long-term health, while also giving empowering, practical steps to reduce exposure without fear or overwhelm.Together we explore: – How microplastics end up in our brain, heart, and reproductive organs – Why BPA-free labels often don’t mean “safe” – The surprising truth about glass vs. plastic bottles – How IV drips and hospital environments expose us to hidden toxins – The fertility crisis: sperm count decline, egg retrieval, and endocrine disruptors – Pesticides, organic vs. non-organic food, and what’s really worth paying more for – Practical, realistic swaps in the kitchen, home, and daily life to lower toxic load – Why small, sustainable changes are the most powerful path forwardLove,Sarah Ann 💛***This episode is sponsored by Spatone – the No.1 iron-rich water supplement.This is a product I genuinely believe in — one I’ve used personally and recommended in the clinic for years.

  • Is Your Productivity a Symptom of High Functioning Depression? | Dr. Judith Joseph
    You might think depression looks like sadness, withdrawal, or losing all motivation. But what if it could also look like achievement, productivity, and relentless drive?This week’s guest, Dr. Judith Joseph, psychiatrist, researcher, and author of High Functioning Depression, reveals why so many high performers silently struggle with emptiness, anxiety, and disconnection, despite looking like they “have it all.” Drawing from both her clinical expertise and lived experience, Dr. Joseph breaks down why society rewards overwork, how masking with busyness becomes a dangerous coping strategy, and why prevention, not crisis, is the future of mental health. Her work is reshaping how we understand success, resilience, and joy.Together we explore: – The hidden signs of high-functioning depression and why it’s so often missed – Why constant productivity can be a coping mechanism for unresolved pain – How anxiety and depression overlap more than we realize – The role of social media, overstimulation, and Gen Z’s rising mental health crisis – Why toxic relationships and lack of validation fuel burnout – Dr. Joseph’s “5 V’s” framework for reclaiming joy and building resilience – How to slow down, self-validate, and truly savor life without losing ambitionThis is not about lowering your standards. It’s about rewriting the script on success, one where ambition and well-being can co-exist. If you’ve ever wondered why achievement alone doesn’t make you feel fulfilled, this conversation will give you the clarity and tools to change that.Love,Sarah Ann 💛***This episode is sponsored by Spatone – the No.1 iron-rich water supplement.This is a product I genuinely believe in — one I’ve used personally and recommended in the clinic for years.
