Episode Summary

At the end of a busy year, you’re probably feeling like you’ve been running on empty while pouring into everyone else.

So in this reflective episode, I invite you to pause and look back on 2025 with honesty and compassion for yourself.

You’ll be guided through what truly worked in 2025, what you’re ready to release, and what you want to consciously carry forward as you turn the page.

With a focus on discernment, alignment, and intention—hallmarks of the perimenopausal journey—this episode offers 12 powerful reflection questions to help you find clarity on all you’ve gone through this year.

“I feel like this is the season of slowing down or at least becoming a bit more discerning about what we’re saying yes to and what we’re saying no to.”

“I want to invite you into an end-of-year reflection practice, not the kind that’s overwhelming or guilt-inducing. Just real simple questions that help us reconnect with what worked, what didn’t, and who we want to be, and who we need to be in the next year to come because without reflection, we are destined to repeat.”

“May 2026 be your most vibrant, energized, and aligned year yet– may you get all the wins, or at least one, right? Give me the wins!”

Episode Summary

If you’ve been doing everything right—eating clean, exercising, and taking your supplements—but still feel tired, bloated, or off, this episode is going to change the way you think about your health.

I’m joined by the incredible Kim Rogers, better known online as the “Worm Queen,” who’s pulling back the curtain on the hidden world of parasites and why so many of us are unknowingly affected by them.

With 20+ years in Western medicine and a powerful personal healing story through Lyme, mold, and parasite infections, Kim brings both science and passion to this eye-opening conversation.

You’ll learn why regular parasite cleansing can be a total game-changer for your energy, digestion, skin, and overall vitality.

All of us should be doing a parasite cleanse– it’s safe, effective, and an incredible way to be proactive about our health.

Tune in to this episode and feel empowered to take your healing into your own hands!

Kim Rogers

Kim worked in western medicine for over 20 years, ran 25 healthcare colleges, was a professor, author, and holds 2 healthcare degrees– all while dealing with her own chronic illnesses. In July, 2021 Kim came across a video on Tiktok talking about parasite cleansing. She gave it a try, and because it was so successful, she saw a need to help others heal. She started her company RogersHood in December 2021 making ParaFy Parasite cleanse kit to help others cleanse their bodies of unwanted parasites, candida, heavy metals, and toxins. Her mission is to help improve testing for environmental toxins for everyone!

QUOTES

“The herbs that we used are specifically because they’re gentle and we should all be cleansing. We should all be doing this just as a proactive way, not so much as a reactive one… It’s really a sad thing, the state we’re seeing chronic illness at.”

“60 million people in the United States have parasites that have been tested. That’s through an approved lab to give us that number.”

“I’m trying to teach and show people how to be sovereign over your own health and body so that you have a little more control. Chronically ill people, one of the biggest things is that I lost control over sovereignty with my own body over an illness, and over other people around me telling me what’s wrong with me, and I really want to give that control back to people.”
