Episode 1 – Coming Home to My Natural Rhythms (Welcome Back Episode) After a little pause, Up Your Total Glow is back — and more aligned than ever. In this episode, I’m sharing what led me to slow down, refocus, and realign my work and life with the beautiful wisdom of Ayurveda. I open up about my own Vata–Pitta tendencies (yes, the part of me that wants to do all the things at once!) and how honoring my natural rhythms became an act of deep self-care and integrity. I also gently introduce the Ayurvedic doshas — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha — and how understanding these energies can help us feel more grounded, radiant, and at ease in our bodies and minds. ✨ This episode is a heartfelt welcome back, filled with honesty, warmth, and a reminder that slowing down is not failure — it’s medicine.
