Untamed & Unfiltered Wellness
When stress, sleep, focus, or energy start shifting—and the strategies you used to rely on stop working—this podcast helps you understand why and shows you what to do next without spinning your wheels.
Untamed and Unfiltered Wellness is a grounded, no-nonsense podcast for people who want to live well in the real world, busy schedules, demanding jobs, aging bodies and all.
Each episode explores the foundations of holistic living, including:
-Nervous system regulation and stress resilience
-Sleep patterns, recovery, and daily rhythms
-Blood sugar, hydration, and energy stability
-Environmental and lifestyle stressors most people overlook
-Herbal support and somatic practices for sustainable change
This is practical, integrative wellness for real lif, not trends, not hacks and not one-size-fits-all advice.
You’ll walk away with clear insights, usable tools, and realistic shifts you can apply immediately—so your body and mind feel steadier, more supported, and easier to live in.
Hosted by Jo Swensson, Herbalist and Founder of Olivia Bell.

Episode #35: Why New Year’s Resolutions Fail And What to Do Instead
Every January, we set big goals and by the end of the month, most of them are already abandoned.
In this episode, we break down why traditional New Year’s resolutions fail, how event-driven goals (like weight loss for a deadline) quietly sabotage long-term success, and why popular goal-setting frameworks don’t work the way we’ve been told.
This isn’t about willpower or discipline. It’s about choosing goals that actually support your life, your nervous system, and your energy, without guilt or burnout.
If you’re ready to rethink resolutions and set goals that make sense, this episode is for you.
