Wellness retreats and resorts create powerful moments of clarity, rest, and insight—but for many guests, that momentum fades once they return home. In this episode, Sheri Davidson explores why that happens and introduces a smarter, more sustainable approach to wellness experiences that actually last beyond checkout.

Whether you design wellness experiences or have personally struggled to keep retreat habits going, this conversation names the real issue—and offers a grounded path forward.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why most wellness experiences unintentionally end at inspiration—and what’s missing
• The “integration gap” that causes habits to fall apart after guests return home
• Why fading routines are a context problem, not a motivation problem
• How small, supported habits create stronger guest outcomes and long-term brand loyalty
• What wellness brands can do to support guests after the experience without overwhelming their teams

If you’re ready to create wellness experiences that don’t just feel good in the moment—but continue to shape real life afterward—this episode sets a new standard.

The start of a new year often comes with big goals, high motivation, and pressure to reset everything, but I’ve seen again and again that this intensity often leads to burnout instead of lasting change.

In this episode of The Wellness Inspired Podcast, I share a steadier, smarter approach to habit-building—one that works even when life feels full, stressful, or unpredictable. I talk about why motivation and inspiration matter, but why they can’t be the foundation of sustainable habits, and why starting small is often the most strategic way to build consistency that actually lasts.

In this episode, I explore:

• Why motivation and inspiration are important, but can’t sustain habits on their own
• How pressure and intensity quietly sabotage consistency
• Why starting small helps your nervous system feel safe moving forward
• How habits shift from effort to identity over time
• A more realistic way to approach wellness during demanding seasons

“When you stay consistent long enough, you don’t just do the thing. You become the kind of person who does it.” — Sheri Davidson

Every January, we try to change our habits with motivation, discipline, and good intentions, and still feel frustrated when things fall apart. In this episode, we explore why habit change isn’t a willpower problem at all, but a nervous system one, and how supporting your physiology can make consistency feel lighter and more sustainable.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why habits feel emotional — and why that doesn’t mean you’re failing
• How stress and nervous system overload interfere with follow-through
• What nervous system regulation actually changes in real life (and in the clinic)
• Simple, realistic ways to support your nervous system without adding pressure

If this episode resonated, send me a DM and share one small habit you’re supporting this season — I’d love to hear what you’re noticing.

“Habit collapse isn’t a character flaw — it’s a capacity issue.”

In this episode, I dive into the intersection of beauty, self-worth, and real-life wellness.

As a former designer turned acupuncturist and wellness coach, I’ve learned that perfectionism can make both beauty and wellness fragile. For years, I chased flawless spaces, routines, and results — until I realized something deeper: beauty that can’t hold your chaos isn’t beauty. It’s a cage.

In this conversation, I unpack what that means — how design taught me about control, chaos, and self-trust, and why real wellness isn’t about picture-perfect routines or golden-hour matcha moments.

💬 In this episode, I share:

• Why perfectionism makes beauty (and wellness) fragile
• How design taught me about control, chaos, and self-trust
• What “beauty that can’t hold your chaos” really means
• How to build a wellness practice that’s flexible, honest, and sustainable

⠀✨ This is a grounded, heart-opening reflection on what it means to love beauty without letting it define your worth.

“ beauty that can’t hold your chaos isn’t beauty. It’s a cage."– Sheri Davidson

What if your “wellness fails” are actually where the real growth happens? In this refreshingly honest episode, Sheri Davidson shares how the Netflix show Nailed It! perfectly captures what wellness truly looks like in real life—messy, imperfect, and full of heart.

In this episode, you’ll discover:
• Why chasing perfect routines keeps you stuck in the start-stop cycle
• How showing up—imperfectly—is the secret to consistency
• The truth about beauty, worth, and wellness (and why your dinner doesn’t need to be Instagram-worthy)
• A simple mindset shift to help you laugh, learn, and keep going

💬 “You can love beautiful things and still give yourself permission to be imperfect. That’s not hypocrisy. That’s honesty.”

🎧 Tune in for a real-world reminder that you don’t have to be perfect to be well, just willing to participate.

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Sylvie Filteau, a former covert agent with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police turned spiritual mentor, priestess, and psycho-spiritual counselor.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• How Sylvie went from years in high-pressure covert operations to a spiritual awakening rooted in nature and inner authority.
• Why integration—not just inspiration—is where the real work begins.
• The link between integrity, authenticity, and wholeness in personal growth.
• Practical integration tools you can use to turn insights into embodied change.

When Istra Bauza says, “This transition isn’t the end—it’s the moment you become more of you,” she captures the transformative potential of menopause. Beyond hot flashes and physical changes lies an invitation to profound self-discovery and authenticity.

In our third conversation together, Istra—now a licensed professional counselor—shares how midlife transitions often spark more than symptoms. They can trigger a radical reassessment of identity, boundaries, and what it really means to live well.

We talk openly about the physical realities—disrupted sleep, joint pain, weight shifts—while reframing menopause as a season of growth rather than loss. What if the changes you’re experiencing are actually guiding you back to your truest self?

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why menopause is more than symptoms—it’s an identity shift
• How hormonal changes invite deeper emotional and mental work
• Why self-acceptance and inner wisdom matter more than quick fixes
• The surprising freedom many women find from external validation

🎧 Whether you’re moving through this transition yourself or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers practical wisdom and a fresh perspective on midlife.

"This transition isn’t the end—it’s the moment you become more of you." —Istra Bauza
