Happy, Healthy, & Well
by Nat Nud
Hi, I’m Nat, and welcome to Happy, Healthy & Well—a podcast where I overthink what I’m thinking about and try out a wellness trend to get a little more happy, healthy, and well.Each week, I pick a health trend, dive into its history, explore the claims, and dig into the science. Then I try it out and share how it went for me.Because I think if we learn the science, trust our own lived experiences, and share what we know with each other, that’s how we get as close as possible to the truth of what it means to be happy, healthy, and well.

Final Boss: Ayahuasca + Trust me, My Moms a Chemist
HI <3I have returned. From the embrace of ayahuascamama. Somewhere in Texas, I drank, I cried, I sang, I probably saw God. And now I’m here, trying to explain the unexplainable. Watch me dance.This week, we’re talking about ayahuasca. Daime. Yagé. Madre. The medicine. The mother. The father. The great cosmic silly goose. I spent three nights drinking it with a Santo Daime group, and let’s just say—time collapsed, stars sparkled, and someone definitely sang Bananaphone to me as I fell asleep. Now I’m back, one foot in 3D, one foot in the cosmos, and maybe a couple fingers and toes in other dimensions.Also—this is the season finale. Ten episodes. 50,000+ words written. Six hours recorded. I made a whole podcast. Bingo. And what better way to close it out than with the biggest, most intense, reality-shattering thing I can buy?Ayahuasca is a teacher, a celebration, a reckoning. And she demands that you look.Because she’s a hot bitch. And I love her so much.XOXOXO,Nat

Botulinum Toxin (Botox) w/ THAI WILAI
HI <3OMG. This week? Ur welcome fam.I am out of the closet and into the fancy schmancy studio. Makeup / On. Lashes / On. Camera / ON. Because this week, I had the blessing of sitting down with the most beautiful, wonderful, talented, down-to-earth Wilai. I call her Grace.And you guys deserve to see her face, so here we are, caffeinated, unmedicated, mad about microplastics, and ready to yap.It’s my Botox time of year. That pre-daylight savings seasonal affective disorder peak when I start shopping for store-bought solutions to spiritual problems. I have been putting this toxin in my face for years, yet I genuinely have no idea what it is, where it comes from, or what it’s actually doing. It’s not removing wrinkles. It’s wholly preventative.Say what you want about Botox, early Botox, preventative Botox—I’m just here to stay neutral so I don’t make any crinkly faces.Oh yeah, and because we cannot be pinned down to one thing—we are multidimensional girlie pops—we talk:🌙 Nightlife creatures🥚 The price of eggs🇹🇭 Thailand💔 Bad boyfriends🤢 Natto beansHope you love this very special collaborative production.XOXOXO4everluv,Nat . . . . + Grace :0

Manifestation + A Little Help From my Friends
H! <3 Today is a very very special episode because we’re talking manifestation. The law of attraction. How to get in line with the universe to get what you want. Wait . . . but what do we want? Money? Love? A big house? Yes, please. But do I want those things because I think they’ll make me happy? Or because they’ll make me feel safe? Worthy? We’re exploring humanity’s obsession with creating reality with the mind—from Hellenistic Greece and Hermetic societies to the New Thought movement, ...

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) + Wanting to is a Reason
HI It’s me, ur fav girlie pop. Today, I’m talking IPL—Intense Pulsed Light. AKA Photofacials. The zappy, non-invasive miracle treatment that’s sold to fix all the things we’re told is wrong with our skin. freckles. ew. redness. EW. visible veins. EWWWW. I’m a freckly pink girlie who got left in the cripser, so of course, I love IPL. But also—I just want to be flawless so no one ever finds out I’m human. :0 Making this episode gave me the perfect excuse to get a facial. Because, honestly, I al...

Oracle Cards + It’s More Fun to Believe in Magic
HIHI Today, I'm talking oracle cards—those decks in new age bookstores promising wisdom, guidance, or maybe even a peek into your future. You know you’ve looked. It’s a fun make-em-up. I used to feel a little defensive about liking them, like it was too silly to enjoy. But… why? Why is it weird to find meaning in a deck of cards when we’re all just walking around, pulling meaning out of the air? I don’t think you can tell the future with cards. But I can’t be sure you can’t. When something is...

Red Meat + Saturn Return Cartwheels
HIHI Today was a lesson in humility—had to scrap everything and start from from the top. But I pulled it together (in an unhinged way) to dive into a topic I knew nothing about: red meat. Is it good? Is it evil? Spoiler: It’s complicated (ew). I wish someone would just tell me how to be a good and alive. But, of course, life refuses to be simple. No formulas, all nuance, just the terrifying and comforting truth that you can do whatever you want. Also, got into my favorite astrological e...

Pilates + Pickme 4 the Patriarchy
HIHI Let’s talk Pilates. We all know Pilates—but do we know it was invented in a literal WWI internment camp by a man with nothing but a jail cell and box spring? Born from desperation, meant for rehab, sold as a medical necessity… and now, somehow, a mandatory ritual for being the right kind of woman. Disciplined but flexible. Strong but never powerful. Quiet, still, and tight as f*ck. . . It’s about control—the movement, the breath, the way we are allowed to exist in space. Anyway, I ...

Olive Oil Shots + Tend Your Friendship Garden
HIHI Let’s talk about olive oil—not just as food, but as a shot. ?? Because if a little is good, a lot has to be better, and taking it straight on an empty stomach has to be best… RIGHT?? Maybe. Olive oil is anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, makes you go, and maybe—just maybe—it’s fun? This is my idea of fun now. I don’t take tequila shots anymore, which means I do crazy things like drink olive oil and also means I’ve had to rethink friendships and get more intentional about connection—because ...

Holotropic Breathwork + Sing your Whale Song
Hi, friends! This week, we’re breathing deep into holotropic breathwork—a powerful practice that can lead to deep transformation, altered states of awareness, and maybe feeling whole. If you’re just here for the breathwork history and science, skip ahead to 10:40. But first, I’ll share my journey from a shy girlie into a shy girlie ready to share herself with the world—and how this practice fits into that journey. Let’s be happy, healthy, & well. Hydrated & updated. Elevated, celebrat...

Oil Pulling + I’m a Sober Girlie
Welcome new friends! Episode one, here we go. I don’t know where we’re going, but let’s start hiking. I love to yap. I love to learn. I love to feel happy, healthy, and well… now. I used to drink, but I let that go. And now, with clarity, I’ve realized—what’s the point of all of this if we aren’t enjoying it all, embracing what makes us feel good, and sharing it with the world? Today, I’m diving into one of the wellness influencer starter pack staples—oil pulling. What is it? Where did it ...
