Jordan chats with one of her good friends and fellow wellness bloggers, Nicole Cogan, a fabulous and inspiring human who left the corporate world to start her gluten-free blog NOBREAD five years ago. There’s always so much to talk about when Nicole comes on the show because these girls can talk about anything: hustling at work, their mutual health issues, numerology, shamanism, relationship issues, Nicole’s new hosting gig at This is LA, and of course a quick check in on Vanderpump Rules!!
Jordan has been feeling absolutely wiped since she’s started treatment for her Chronic Lyme (she talks all about getting diagnosed in the intro to last week’s episode), so you’ll probably be seeing a lot of familiar faces on the show for the next few weeks.

Jordan chats with Elizabeth Kott, who many of you probably know from the incredibly popular, hysterical, and all-around-awesome wellness podcast That’s So Retrograde! Jordan loves Elizabeth’s show (co-hosted with Stephanie Simbari), and if you do too you may know that Elizabeth has been very raw + open about the skin journey she has been on over the last year and a half.
Since Jordan has had ALL the skin issues this year – from eczema to hives to acne to her skin just feeling on fire all the time – so Elizabeth was the perfect person to have on the show to discuss the ins, the outs, the healing process, and more. If you’re dealing with any skin issues yourself, or even just self-esteem issues, this conversation is a much-needed dose of support + inspiration!!

Jordan chats with a frequent guest and one of her very best friends, the radiant Rachel Mansfield – and be sure to wish this birthday girl a happy birthday on Instagram (@rachLmansfield) with a 💯 so she knows it’s from the Soul on Fire Tribe! The girls spend the episode sharing their intentions for the month of June because they are all sorts of inspired to implement new routines this summer. It’s been a challenging 2018 so far with health issues for both of the girls, but it’s time to grab the reins and take back the control.
They also discuss getting past their disordered eating mindsets and triggers for both of them as far as falling back into those traps. They go into detail about what has helped them both and how they find balance and freedom with food. Each intention is infused with a learning experience and inspiration that we hope you can take with you into June, this summer, and beyond.
