AI as a wellness tool? YES. I know AI can feel overwhelming, but what if it could actually reduce overwhelm and improve your wellbeing—not just your work? In this episode, I chat with productivity and strategy expert Marissa Brassfield, founder of Ridiculously Efficient and CTOx, about how to use AI to get your time, energy, and creativity back.

As someone who's navigating this tech myself, I’m right there with you—curious, cautious, and wondering how we can use AI tools to work smarter and live better.

Are you constantly reaching for supplements, working out, but still not feeling your best? In this episode of Well Done, I sit down with Mary Tufano, a certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P) and founder of The Root Cause Solution, to talk about the not-so-obvious ways your body is trying to get your attention.

We dive into Mary's personal journey with SIBO, why conventional testing often falls short, and how to start uncovering the root cause of chronic symptoms—especially the ones we tend to normalize. As a mom and founder, I’ve been on this same path of figuring out what my body is trying to tell me—and I know so many of you listening are too.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Functional diagnostic testing and how it differs from conventional tests
• Why some chronic symptoms like fatigue, acne, or bloating persist even when your blood work is “normal”
• What exactly is SIBO—and how do you know if you have it?
• A surprising cause of acne!
• What you’re eating that could be the cause of anxiety, brain fog, or even depression
• Why some people “look healthy” on the outside but still feel off inside
• Mary’s go-to morning wellness ritual that supports the liver and gut
