Girls Gone Wellness
Girls Gone Wellness is the smart, sexy, science-backed wellness podcast flipping the script on everything you thought you knew about health.
If you’re doing all the “right” things like eating 'clean', taking the supplements, following the skincare routine, and still breaking out, burnt out, or just not feeling like yourself, you are not the problem. The problem is that the wellness world wasn’t built for real women, with real bodies, real stress, and real questions that deserve better than vague advice and viral trends.
Hosted by naturopathic medical grads Jeanette Titus and Victoria Gasparini, we’re cutting through the noise with no fear-mongering, and no fluff. Just real talk, real science, and real solutions.
This isn’t another influencer podcast. It’s evidence-based, unfiltered, and actually makes sense.
Welcome to Girls Gone Wellness-where wellness is hot, smart, and finally feels like it’s for you.

Overcoming the Spiral: Healing Anxiety from the Inside Out with Dr. Katie Thomson Aitken, ND
Anxiety is everywhere these days — but what’s really behind it, and what can we actually do to feel better?
In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Katie Thomson Aitken, Naturopathic Doctor, founder of Tranquil Minds, and bestselling author of Create Calm. With over a decade of experience supporting patients through anxiety and mental health challenges, Dr. Katie shares her grounded, compassionate approach to helping us reconnect with inner peace.
We cover it all:
- Why anxiety feels so common today (and why it’s not just "in your head")
- How anxiety can show up in different ways — gut issues, hormonal changes, panic attacks, and more
- The difference between everyday stress, anxiety disorders, and panic disorders
- When to seek professional help — and how natural and medical treatments can work together
- How gut health, hormones, lifestyle habits, and even small food choices are connected to our anxious minds
- Practical coping tools for those panicked moments — like the viral "sour candy" trick
- Our favorite natural supplements, herbs, and when meds might be the right choice
We also tackle some of the biggest myths floating around online about anxiety — from "cut out caffeine" to "you just need to avoid your triggers."
This conversation is packed with insights, practical tips, and real talk about managing anxiety from a naturopathic perspective. Whether you’re in the thick of it or just want to better support your mental wellness, this one’s for you.
