Untamed & Unfiltered Wellness
If your stress, sleep, or hormones have shifted and nothing you used to do is working anymore, this is where we get honest about why and what to do next. We deal in real solutions here.
Untamed and Unfiltered Wellness is a podcast for women noticing changes in energy, sleep patterns, mood, recovery, or stress tolerance and wanting to understand what the body is communicating.
Each week, we break down:
- Stress and nervous system regulation
- Sleep changes and sleep support that actually works
- Cortisol, blood sugar, and hydration patterns
- Perimenopause and hormone transitions
- Herbal strategies for a steadier baseline
This isn’t surface-level wellness. Real bodies. Real responsibilities. Real stress loads.
You’ll leave each episode with something you can actually use...practical guidance and realistic shifts that help your body feel more predictable, supported and steady.
Hosted by Jo Swensson, Herbalist and Holistic Lifestyle Health Coach.

Why Meditation Isn’t About Quieting Your Mind
Meditation isn’t about silence or sitting perfectly still, it’s about attention, intention and connection.
In this episode, I strip down all the wellness hype and talks about what it really is: a daily return to yourself. You’ll learn how ancient traditions used mantra and prayer to anchor the mind, why modern research still backs it and how to create your own ritual without forcing calm.
The best herb for meditation? Gotu Kola, the herb monks used for centuries to sharpen focus and sustain stillness.
