Are you afraid of the sun — or just disconnected from it?
In this episode of Wild, Hot & Healing, I’m diving into a slightly controversial one… why I don’t wear suncream or sunglasses — and what I choose to do instead.
We’ll talk about the real difference between UVA and UVB rays, how your body actually produces vitamin D, and how modern sun safety advice often disconnects us from nature, rhythm, and even our own intuition.
You’ll hear:
☀️ Why UVB rays are your vitamin D BFFs
😎 How sunglasses block natural circadian signals
🧴 What’s actually in most commercial suncreams
⚡ How your diet, stress levels, and ancestry affect how your skin responds to light
🌿 And why sunlight — in the right dose — might be more healing than you’ve been led to believe
This isn’t medical advice — just real talk about reconnecting to your body and the earth.
🎧 Listen in and DM me after to tell me what you think — especially if this challenges what you’ve been taught.
