The Energetically Efficient Show
Welcome to The Energetically Efficient Show—a wellness-meets-real-life podcast where high achievers learn how to reclaim their energy, reset their health, and live with intention (without burning out or chasing perfection).
I’m Kristin Rowell—former trial attorney turned functional nutritionist, speaker, and coach. After 20 years in law, I walked away from my career to build a business that helps people feel vibrant, strong, and aligned from the inside out. This show is where I share everything I’ve learned on that journey—and bring you along for yours.
Each episode blends practical education with honest storytelling, covering topics like metabolic health, real food nutrition, strength training, detoxing, mindset, energy work, and human design. I’ll break down complex topics in a way that’s simple, actionable, and maybe even a little entertaining (with help from my three Golden Retrievers, of course). Expect a mix of solo episodes, guest conversations, kitchen demos, and the occasional grocery store trip.
If you're a high performer who’s ready to stop ignoring your body and start feeling good again—this show is for you.

Continuous Glucose Monitors Explained: How to Balance Blood Sugar & Boost Energy
Are you unknowingly riding the blood sugar rollercoaster that’s draining your energy, wrecking your sleep, and fueling inflammation?
In this episode, Kristin pulls back the curtain on continuous glucose monitors (CGMs)—the tiny device that gives you real-time insights into your blood sugar and shows you exactly how your food, lifestyle, and stress impact your health. She even inserts one live on the episode to prove how simple (and painless) it really is.

- How continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) provide real-time data to course-correct your diet and lifestyle
- The surprising impact of exercise, stress, sleep, and even scary movies on blood sugar levels
- Why not all glucose spikes are bad (and which ones actually help your body)
- How alcohol, snacks, and “innocent” treats like candy or mac & cheese affect glucose differently
- Kristen’s real-world experiments with ice cream, Tootsie Rolls, and activity timing
- Why pairing a CGM with tools like the Oura Ring gives you a complete picture of metabolic health
- Hacks to stabilize your blood sugar for fat loss, better sleep, and all-day energy
