The Wellness Process

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Judith Joseph, a board certified psychiatrist and researcher who led the first ever peer reviewed study on high functioning depression. They talk about her upbringing as a Caribbean immigrant, the pressure to be constantly high achieving, and how she ended up depressed while giving a talk on how to help others get through crisis. Dr. Judith breaks down the difference between burnout and high functioning depression, explains why so many high achievers become pathologically productive as a way to outrun unprocessed pain, and shares her five Vs framework for reclaiming joy: validation, venting, values, vital signs, and vision. They also get into phone addiction, the link between hormones and depression, and why planning joy is not as unromantic as it sounds.If you want to go DEEPER with me, my Substack is where I share even more behind-the-scenes, personal reflections, and wellness experiments, with new posts dropping every Thursday: https://substack.com/@thewellnessprocessFollow Dr. Judith Joseph:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjudithjosephWebsite: https://www.drjudithjoseph.comBook: https://www.highfunctioningbook.comFollow us: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewellnessprocesspodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewellnessprocessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessProcessSponsors:Use coupon code TWP to save 15%.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Rachel Goldman, a psychologist specializing in health and behavior change and author of the new book When Life Happens. They talk about why not every season of life needs to be about growth, how to break free of the all or nothing "dieter's mentality," and why maintaining what's working can be its own form of progress. The conversation dives deep into GLP-1s, body image, and the mental health implications of "shrinking bodies" culture, including Dr. Rachel's honest take on treating these medications like a crash diet. They also get into the difference between being physiologically full and emotionally satisfied, mindful eating practices, and how to build real resilience without needing to hit rock bottom first.If you want to go DEEPER with me, my Substack is where I share even more behind-the-scenes, personal reflections, and wellness experiments, with new posts dropping every Thursday: https://substack.com/@thewellnessprocessFollow Dr. Rachel Goldman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drrachelnycWebsite: https://www.drrachelnyc.comWhen Life Happens: https://www.whenlifehappensbook.comFollow us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewellnessprocesspodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewellnessprocessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessProcessSponsors:Use code WELLNESS at monarch.com for 50% off your first year.Head to cozyearth.com and use code WELLNESS for an exclusive 20% offVisit Tatcha.com and use code TWP for 15% off your first purchase.Use coupon code TWP to save 15% at boncharge.comSecure 10% off for life and begin your intentional wind-down journey today at piquelife.com/wellnessVisit carawayhome.com/TWP10 or use code TWP10 at checkout to take an additional 10% off your next purchase Text TWP to 64000 to get 20% off all IQBAR products, plus FREE shipping.

They talk about spirit babies, the souls that hover around us before conception and shape everything from pregnancy timing to loss to the identity shift into motherhood.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Tony Jimenez, integrative oncology physician and founder of Hope4Cancer. Dr. Tony shares the personal story that pulled him from a surgical track into integrative cancer care, starting with his own father's diagnosis.

They cover his seven key principles of healing, the role of the immune system and the microbiome, oxygenation, and why he treats the spiritual and emotional layers before the physical.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Amy Chan, dating expert, founder of Breakup Boot Camp, and author of Unsingle: How to Date Smarter and Create Love That Lasts. They get into why so many smart, successful women are struggling to find lasting love, and what is actually getting in the way.Amy breaks down the patterns most people repeat without realizing it, from chasing emotionally unavailable partners to mistaking anxiety for attraction. She explains how our earliest relationships wire us to seek what feels familiar, even when it hurts us, and how that plays out in who we swipe on, who we fall for, and who we keep ending up with. They also get into the science of love chemicals, why the 18-month mark breaks so many couples apart, what it really takes to keep a relationship alive after the dopamine fades, and how to tell the difference between a green flag and someone who is simply very good at dating.This conversation is not about finding the perfect partner.
