In this week’s episode of The Cultivate Calmness Podcast, Kaela dives into what she calls “sugar overload season”—that stretch of holidays from Halloween through Valentine’s Day where candy, cookies, and cocktails dominate. She explores how excess sugar impacts the immune system, why you might feel run down despite taking vitamins, and how small, mindful choices can strengthen your body’s natural defenses. Drawing on her holistic and functional mental health approach, Kaela also shares practical ways to listen to your body’s early warning signs, use food and supplements intentionally, and teach your family to recognize those same cues. This episode offers a compassionate reminder to enjoy the season while nurturing your physical and emotional wellness.
