In this episode of Everything’s Messy Podcast, this week feels a little different. It’s been an emotional one, both in the world and in my own life, and I want to take a moment to talk about something that’s been weighing heavy on my heart.

I shared some thoughts about the tragic events surrounding Charlie Kirk. No matter what we believe or where we stand, life is precious—every single one of them—and violence or celebrating someone’s suffering is never the answer. I’ve always lived by “agree to disagree,” and I want my kids to grow up in a world where they can speak their minds without fear. Disagreements don’t have to turn into hate, and healing can’t happen if we’re operating from that place.

This ties back to what I always say about wellness—it isn’t just about our bodies. Healing our minds and our spirit means approaching life from a place of love. You can’t hate your way into healing. Whether it’s the way we see our bodies, the narratives we tell ourselves, or how we approach spirituality, love and respect must be at the center.

I also dive into the topic of labels. In today’s world, we’re quick to label ourselves—by diet, by illness, by diagnosis, by quirks—and while labels can help us understand and advocate for ourselves, they can also put us in boxes and define us in limiting ways. I talk about the importance of looking at the whole person, remembering that you are so much more than any label. I’ve lived with labels like Type 1 Diabetes and heart attack survivor, but those don’t define me—they’re just pieces of my story.

As I reflect on all of this, my message is simple: life is fleeting, life is messy, and life is precious. Let’s value it, respect each other, and keep working toward healing in body, mind, and spirit. Thank you for being here with me on this journey—I appreciate you more than you know. And don’t forget, my brand-new podcast Truth & Pink drops next Tuesday! I hope you’ll check it out and join me for that adventure too.

Until then, let’s keep finding strength in the mess and remember—we’re all more than just one thing. 💖
