From Wealth to Wellness: What We Learned at the Dealmakers Conference
What happens when some of the country's most successful business leaders, investors, philanthropists, and innovators gather in one room? In this special pop-up episode, we take you behind the scenes at the Dealmakers Conference, where we had the opportunity to connect with incredible leaders who are building businesses, creating generational wealth, and using their success to make a lasting impact. One of our favorite conversations was with National Christian Foundation, where we sat down with Katie to discuss how families can steward their wealth with intention, create purpose-driven giving strategies, and make an impact while they're still living—not just through their legacy after they're gone. But what surprised us most was seeing how many innovators are moving toward holistic health and wellness. From authors educating families on natural living to entrepreneurs developing groundbreaking tools for early health screening, it became clear that the future of health is shifting—and some of the biggest leaders in business are paying attention. This episode is a glimpse into the conversations, connections, and inspiring people we met along the way. It's about legacy, stewardship, faith, innovation, and using whatever you've been given to make a difference. In This Episode: ✨ Building a legacy that lasts beyond money ✨ Generational wealth and purpose-driven giving ✨ Why more leaders are embracing holistic health ✨ Faith-centered entrepreneurship ✨ The power of stewardship and impact ✨ Behind-the-scenes moments from the Dealmakers Conference If you've ever wondered how successful leaders think about wealth, purpose, health, and leaving the world better than they found it, this episode is for you.

From Big Food To Clean Food: Founder of Love Bird Cereal Parker Shares his Mission To Change Breakfast Forever
This episode is one every parent needs to hear.We sat down with Parker, the founder of Lovebird Cereal, and wow… this conversation opened our eyes even more to what’s really happening inside the food industry — especially when it comes to what we’re feeding our children first thing in the morning.Before creating Lovebird, Parker worked inside major food corporations. He saw firsthand how heavily processed ingredients, dyes, sugars, preservatives, and chemicals became normalized in American breakfast foods — especially cereals marketed directly to kids.Now? He’s on a mission to change that.Not only did he create a cleaner cereal made with ingredients parents can actually pronounce, but he’s also actively working with a national breakfast organization to help schools swap unhealthy cereals for better options like Lovebird — at ZERO additional cost.And honestly… the story behind why he does this will hit you right in the heart.Parker also shares the emotional reason Lovebird donates a portion of profits from every box sold to childhood cancer initiatives, and it’s one of the most touching conversations we’ve had on the podcast.This episode dives into:What’s REALLY hiding in children’s cerealsHow food companies market unhealthy products to familiesWhy breakfast matters more than most people realizeThe ingredients parents should avoidThe future of cleaner school lunchesHow Parker left corporate food to create real changeWhy healthier food shouldn’t cost families moreThe emotional mission behind Lovebird CerealThis one is powerful, eye-opening, and honestly inspiring.CONNECT WITH LOVEBIRDInstagram:https://lovebirdfoods.com/?ref=Crunchymoms Discount Code: CRUNCHYMOMS for 15% off!

The USA Today Documentary We’ve All Been Waiting For | Episode 14
Okay… let’s talk about this documentary.In this episode of Crunchy Moms Unfiltered, we’re airing the full USA Today documentary that a LOT of parents have been waiting to see—and yes, we have thoughts.We kick things off with our own commentary before the documentary starts, because while this project was a huge moment and an important step forward, it wasn’t perfect—and we want to be honest about that. There were parts we loved, parts we questioned, and a few discrepancies we didn’t totally agree with. And instead of pretending otherwise, we talk about it.Then we let the documentary play in full, uninterrupted, so you can watch it with your own eyes and form your own opinion. Afterward, we come back with real, unfiltered reflections—what felt validating, what felt off, and why overall we still believe this was a meaningful experience and an important project to be part of.Do we think crunchy moms were represented better than ever before on a mainstream platform? Yes. Do we think there’s still room for deeper truth and better conversations? Also yes.And that’s exactly why you’ll want to listen.🎧 Available on all podcast platforms 📺 Full video episode on YouTube & RumbleWhat you’ll hear in this episode:Our honest pre-documentary commentary (no blind praise here)The full USA Today documentary played start to finishWhere we felt seen as crunchy moms—and where we didn’tThe discrepancies we noticed and why they matterWhy this still felt like a win for parents asking questionsWhy we decided to air this anyway: Because progress doesn’t come from perfection—it comes from conversations finally being allowed to happen. And this documentary cracked a door that’s been shut for a long time.We don’t expect you to agree with everything. We do expect you to walk away thinking.If this episode resonates: ⭐ Leave a review 📤 Share it with another parent who’s been quietly questioning 💬 Join the conversation—this is far from overHere’s where to find us 👇🏻 • Instagram: Crunchymomsunfilteredpodcast• YouTube: Crunchymomsunfilteredpodcast Find Brandy Lemire on Instagram @healingandhomesteadingmamaFind April LoConti on Instagram @thecrunchyishhealingmomJOIN OUR COMMUNITY full of other link minded others and tons of resources to give your all the knowledge to make empowered decisions. https://www.skool.com/the-crunchy-moms-unfiltered/about?ref=4c2d934ae57346eaafc3d994ff00f0ceLeave a comment and let us know what topic you want us to tackle next!Shop our FAVS here https://linktr.ee/CrunchymomsunfilteredpodcastThank you to our SPONSORS our Power 100 Rockwell School of Holistic Medicine Find them herehttps://www.schoolofholisticmedicine.com/a/2147506343/9vfLzLZnAnd you can use CRUNCHYMOMSPODCAST for a coupon code Homegrown Collective Find your local farm Find them here ...

The Vaccine Schedule Shift No Ones Explaining to Parents...
This week on Crunchy Moms Unfiltered, we’re diving into one of the biggest but least-explained public health changes that’s got parents everywhere talking — the new childhood vaccine schedule.Federal health officials recently overhauled the U.S. childhood vaccine recommendations, reducing the number of diseases for which routine shots are broadly recommended — dropping from 17 to 11. Instead of a one-size-fits-all schedule, many vaccines are now recommended only for high-risk children or left up to shared clinical decision-making between parents and doctors. The CDC says this aligns U.S. guidance with international peers, but pediatricians and medical groups are raising serious concerns about the lack of transparency, scientific review, and potential risks for kids. With so much fear, confusion, and conflicting info swirling around, we’re breaking down:•What actually changed in the vaccine schedule (and why parents are confused)•How this shift happened and who made the decision•The real responses from doctors, pediatricians, and families•What this means for your child’s health journeyAnd we’re especially excited because this is along time coming. We have some pretty BIG guest coming on with us to unpack all of this — answering the questions parents have been too afraid to ask.
