Totally Not Appropriate
Welcome to Totally Not Appropriate, where medicine meets mystery—and healing finally becomes whole.
Hosted by Taylor Sappington, a medical astrologer and herbalist blending 15 years of Western and Eastern practice, and Adrienne Irizarry, HWH, a reproductive rebel, cycle alchemist and East Asian medicine practitioner rewriting the story of women’s health, this podcast is a sanctuary for the witches in the broom closet, the healers in hiding, and the ones who walk between worlds but have been told it’s safer to stay silent.
We don’t buy into quick fixes or cookie-cutter care. We bring together the science of the body, the wisdom of the Earth, and the patterns written in the sky. We’re here to challenge the systems that left us unseen, to honor the ancient ways that still work, and to show you that the most powerful medicine is always rooted in who you are.
Each week, we’ll dive into raw, real conversations about healing, identity, and reclamation. From sage to SSRIs, acupuncture to astrology, herbal remedies to holy revelations—we hold space for it all. Because clinical isn’t enough.
This is your reminder, your permission, your initiation: the safest thing you can be is yourself.

Why 2026 Will Be the Year of Radical Change: How to Get Comfortable With Discomfort Now
What if the constant discomfort you’re feeling isn’t a sign that something is wrong—but a signal that something is shifting?
If you’ve been feeling unsettled, overwhelmed, or like the ground beneath you keeps moving, you’re not alone. Many people are trying to “wait out” change, hoping things will stabilize before they make a move.
But here’s the truth: change isn’t slowing down—and resisting it only creates more fear, disconnection, and burnout.
In this episode, Adrienne and Taylor explore why change is the only constant, especially as we move toward major sociopolitical and economic shifts expected in 2026. Instead of spiraling into fear or polarization, they offer a grounded, empowering invitation: come back home to yourself, take personal responsibility, and anchor into what you can actually influence—your inner world and your local community.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:
- Why resisting change creates more instability—personally and collectively
- How upcoming societal and economic shifts may impact your sense of safety and identity
- The role personal responsibility plays in navigating polarizing times
- Practical ways to stay grounded, connected, and resilient without feeding fear
Change is here whether we like it or not—but how we meet it determines whether we fracture or heal. Tune in to learn how to move through the chaos with clarity, courage, and a deeper connection to yourself and your community.
