There’s something I’ve been thinking about lately…

We grew up being told:

wear socks

don’t sit on cold concrete

don’t go outside with wet hair

eat something warm… have some soup

And somewhere along the way we stopped listening.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Maz Roginski — Doctor of Chinese Medicine, Qi expert, and a fellow Eastern European sis with Polish roots — to talk about what’s really going on with our health today.

Because so many of us are doing everything right…

and still feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and completely depleted.

Dr. Maz blends ancient Chinese Medicine with modern science to help people restore their life force energy Qi which fuels everything from hormones and metabolism to mental clarity and emotional wellbeing. 

But this conversation goes deeper than that.

We talk about burnout, motherhood, trauma, culture, and the disconnect between how we were raised… and how we’re living now.

From ice baths and modern wellness trends

to the power of rest, warmth, and even something as simple as soup

This is about coming back to ourselves.

• Why women feel constantly exhausted (even when doing everything “right”)

• East vs West: modern health trends vs traditional ways of living

• Burnout, hormones & nervous system overload

• How childhood, culture & trauma shape our health

• Why we’ve become disconnected from our bodies

• The pressure on modern women (and why it’s unsustainable)

• Ice baths, fasting & wellness trends — what actually works?

• The power of warmth, rest & simple rituals

• Practical ways to start reconnecting with your body

Maybe we’re not broken.

Maybe we’re just burnt out… disconnected… and running on empty.

And maybe the answers aren’t in doing more —

but in coming back to what we’ve always known.
