What is body debt and why does it show up as low energy, weight gain, poor sleep, chronic stress, stiffness, mood changes, and even back pain? In this episode, Kim Ward is joined by fitness expert and Wellness Warriors co-founder Laura Whitney Ribbins to explain how body debt builds over time from lack of movement, poor nourishment, limited recovery, and neglected mindset often without you realizing it.
You’ll learn why “rest” can feel exhausting, how small baby-step habits can start paying body debt down, and why ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are a key place to begin. Laura shares practical, real-life tools like movement breaks, simple daily walking, hydration progress (without overhauling everything), and a mindset reset—plus why checking your phone first thing can derail your day.

Tired of the social media grind and the algorithm deciding whether your business eats?
Kim Ward sits down with Julie Ostmeyer to break down a list-building strategy that helps family-focused entrepreneurs grow an email list fast without paid ads, endless posting, or chasing likes.

You’ll learn what a “bundle” is, why bundles can bring hundreds (even thousands) of qualified subscribers, and how to avoid the biggest mistake that causes people to grab your freebie and ghost. Julie shares how she went from 0 to 400 new email subscribers in about two months, how niche-specific bundle themes attract the right audience, and how to set up a simple “rinse and repeat” system that keeps your list growing monthly.
