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.

Unlock Your Gene Keys: How to Find Your Soul Blueprint with Alexia Usgaard
Ever wonder what it really means to live in alignment with your soul blueprint?
In this episode, Kristin sits down with Alexia Usgaard, coach and guide in human design & the Gene Keys system. Together they explore how to align business, spirituality and heart-led living through ancestral healing, ritual, authentic leadership and not just “doing” but being.
Alexia shares her journey from Silicon Valley to two continents, how she met her husband, moved to South Africa to honor his family legacy, and how she blends deep inner work (human design, gene keys, ritual) with outer business strategy.
Tune in to hear:
- How Alexia met her husband on a fateful night in San Francisco and why she was ready for “hell yes” love
- The importance of ancestral/lineage healing and how their retreat at Esalen Institute in Big Sur helped their journey
- An intro to the Gene Keys (what they are, how they work) and how Alexia uses them to guide clients
- The difference between habits and rituals, and why rituals are so powerful for presence and joy (with concrete examples from Alexia’s daily life)
- How to deepen your leadership and business through alignment (not hustle), capacity and presence
- Honoring the feminine and the soft power within and redefining strength beyond force
- How to know when you’re in a “growth edge” (not just reactive pain) and how to step into it with clarity
- Practical take-aways: how to design simple rituals, how to shift from “I have to do this” to “I get to”, how to connect with your unique blueprint and not get distracted by the shiny object syndrome
