    Trying to Conceive? This Fertility Case Study Is for You | Ep 409
    May 12 2026
    If you feel like you’ve done EVERYTHING to support your fertility journey, cleaned up your diet, worked on your gut health, taken all the supplements, tracked alllll the things and you’re still not pregnant… this episode will speak to you. Erin and TFN Practitioner Nicole Antes are walking through a fertility case study for a client who came to them after trying to conceive for a year with a 16+ supplement routine that wasn’t necessarily supporting her body in the way it needed.Together, they get into the downstream effects of overly aggressive gut protocols, hyper-fixation, nervous system regulation, and how easy it can be for TTC to feel like a full-time job. There were some subtle shifts that helped this client finally move the needle and get a positive pregnancy test!In this episode:The role of methylation, mitochondrial health, and antioxidant support in egg quality and embryo developmentWhy herbal antimicrobials can sometimes “kill the good guys” after aggressive gut protocolsHow Dad’s health influences a healthy fertility journey, and how sperm quality can shift within 3-6 monthsWhy taking a month off from tracking could be the most supportive nervous system shiftThe surprising thing this client did before finally getting a positive pregnancy testResources mentioned:Real Food For Fertility by Lily Nichols and Lisa Hendrickson-Jack (see Chapter 9!)Manifest Your Health is our neuroscience backed membership designed to help you reconnect with your body, regulate your nervous system, and finally break out of the symptom loop.

    What Is Intuitive Functional Medicine (And Why It Changes Everything) | Ep 408
    May 5 2026
    There’s a version of functional medicine that works, and then there’s the version that leaves people with a stack of labs, a cabinet full of supplements, and a whole lot of confusion. In this conversation, Erin is joining holistic nutritionist Ali Shapiro on the Truce with Food podcast to get candid about the difference, what she’s seeing in her own practice, and why things have gotten a little “wonky” in the wellness space.Erin gets into the trenches of how her work has shifted, why she’s no longer looking at the physical body in isolation, and what happens when you bring the nervous system, your patterns, and your lived experience into the room.P.S. The special $49/month founder’s rate for the Manifest Your Health membership ends THIS week!In this episode:Erin’s definition of intuitive functional medicine, and why it’s not about choosing between the body, mind, or nervous systemHow to self-source and trust your own body vs. outsourcing to expertsWhy more data (labs, trackers, testing) isn’t always better, and how it can disconnect you from your bodyThe “and both” approach to health and why this is where real transformation happensWhat it looks like to work with a practitioner who co-pilots with youResources mentioned:Manifest Your Health is officially open!

  • The 5 Stages of Healing: From Hyper-Vigilance to Trusting Your Body | Ep 407

    The 5 Stages of Healing: From Hyper-Vigilance to Trusting Your Body | Ep 407
    Apr 28 2026

    Transcending chronic symptoms, reclaiming your vitality, and no longer making your health your whole personality? That’s exactly what this episode is about. Erin is breaking down the five stages of healing, and the EXACT patterns her clients go through before they feel free in their bodies.

    Erin gets into the nocebo effect, health hyper-vigilance, the medicine spiral, and the kind of inner work that will move you into a new identity. She also connects the dots between how your brain processes labels, how fear and focus can reinforce symptoms, and why so many people stay stuck in loops even when they’re doing “all the right things.”

    P.S. The Manifest Your Health app is here! Get your $49/mo founding membership HERE.

    In this episode:
    1. Erin’s favorite stage of healing (Stage 4) and why the real work happens there
    2. Our cultural obsession with labels, and why getting a diagnosis can feel like “sweet relief”
    3. How the medicine spiral creates deeper healing every time you move through it
    4. The identity shift that allows you to stop constantly monitoring your body and finally feel free in it
