This week, Alex sits down with Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Vet Kat Puryear who has had an incredible career dancing for BOTH the NBA and the NFL, and is one of the breakout stars of the recent Netflix documentary series “America’s Sweethearts”. Kat lets us in on the process of becoming a member of the iconic Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader squad, what it physically takes to perform the famous “Thunderstruck” choreography, how to do a split jump, and what the heck happens when you get your period in those tiny white shorts! Plus, she takes us behind the scenes of a DCC game day, clears up a few misconceptions about Victoria’s birthday party, and shares how she knew when to leave the team and all that she’s looking forward to now!Connect with Kat: ⁠@katpurr⁠Follow "Glow Up And Speak Out" on IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@glowupandspeakout⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to our newsletter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Links and Discounts!Prolon: Tap the link below for 15% off your 5-day nutrition kit to get ALL of the benefits of fasting (including cell autophagy) - while still eating!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://partners.prolonlife.com/ALEXANDRAFERRARA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Plant People: For 15% off any doctor-formulated supplement, enter code: GLOWUP at checkout.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.plantpeople.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fatty15: Click the link below for 20% off your Fatty15 Starter Kit 90-Day Supply of supplements for healthy aging.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FATTY15 + GLOWUP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠K.

What does a doula actually do, and why does it matter so much? In this episode, Alex sits down with Erica Manto Paulson, certified Doula + the Founder and CEO of Nurture, to break down the real role of a doula and how it’s completely different from a midwife or an OB. With nearly two decades of experience supporting over 1,000 births, Erica shares the research-backed truth: having a doula can significantly improve outcomes in any kind of birth. They also get a little deeper into the power of birth stories, why your experience stays with you for life, and how sharing it can impact generations of women to come. This is a conversation about support, agency, and why no woman should go through birth feeling alone!Connect with Erica at Nurture: www.welcometonurture.comFollow Nurture on IG: @nurturecincyFollow "Glow Up And Speak Out" on IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@glowupandspeakout⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Alex’s faves in beauty and wellness on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ShopMy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Subscribe to our newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Links and Discounts!Prolon: Tap the link below for 15% off your 5-day nutrition kit to get ALL of the benefits of fasting (including cell autophagy) - while still eating!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://partners.prolonlife.com/ALEXANDRAFERRARA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Plant People: For 15% off any doctor-formulated supplement, enter code: GLOWUP at checkout.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.plantpeople.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fatty15: Click the link below for 20% off your Fatty15 Starter Kit 90-Day Supply of supplements for healthy aging.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FATTY15 + GLOWUP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠K.

This week, Alex is joined by journalist, producer, and founder Brittany Dandy, whose career includes working behind-the-scenes at MTV! Brittany reminisces about her reality TV and production days before diving into motherhood, including why she changed her mind about having kids, how she financially planned for childcare in New York City, and why she believes America needs to respect and support mothers more. Brittany also details what went into her decision to have two home births, the care team that supported her, and the inspiration behind her platform Ode to Us, which takes a holistic approach to motherhood through community, storytelling, and apparel centered on women of color.Connect with Brittany: @brittanycdandyConnect with Ode To Us: @odetouswellness Follow "Glow Up And Speak Out" on IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@glowupandspeakout⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Alex’s faves in beauty and wellness on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ShopMy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Subscribe to our newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Links and Discounts!Prolon: Tap the link below for 15% off your 5-day nutrition kit to get ALL of the benefits of fasting (including cell autophagy) - while still eating!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://partners.prolonlife.com/ALEXANDRAFERRARA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Plant People: For 15% off any doctor-formulated supplement, enter code: GLOWUP at checkout.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.plantpeople.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fatty15: Click the link below for 20% off your Fatty15 Starter Kit 90-Day Supply of supplements for healthy aging.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FATTY15 + GLOWUP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠K.

This week, Alex sits down with race car driver and Privé Beauty founder Shay Hoelscher to explore how she navigates two seemingly opposite worlds - high-speed motorsports and clean, confidence-boosting beauty. Shay opens up about breaking into a male-dominated industry, building a purpose-driven haircare brand, and creating daily routines that support both peak performance and self-worth. We also talk about her commitment to giving back through Project Beauty Share, which helps ensure women in need have access to essential hygiene and beauty products.

Alex and Madi bond over being NYC boy moms and dive into the full transformation that is motherhood. Madi discusses shedding old identities to make space for new ones, allowing your creativity to evolve as a mom, and how astrology isn’t about predicting your future but about helping you understand who you are at your core.

This week, Alex sits down with the incredible Danika Severino Wynn, a certified nurse midwife and the VP of Care & Access at Planned Parenthood, to pull back the curtain on everything this organization really does for women’s health. Alex and Danika cover the wide range of care Planned Parenthood provides far beyond abortion, from birth control to life-saving cancer screenings, and how they show up for patients regardless of their insurance status. Danika also breaks down the biggest myths around medication abortion, explains why abortion is healthcare and deeply connected to so many aspects of hormonal and reproductive wellness, and shares how Planned Parenthood is working to keep care accessible in an increasingly challenging landscape.
