The Healthy Mama Podcast

Is your phone secretly sabotaging your weight loss?

📱 From endless notifications spiking your cortisol, to late-night scrolling wrecking your sleep, to mindless eating while you scroll—your phone may be playing a bigger role in your health struggles than you think.

In this episode, we’ll uncover how screen time impacts your:

• Metabolism
• Cravings
• Hormones, and
• Waistline

And most importantly, what you can do to take back control without ditching your phone altogether.

If you or your child are dealing with eczema, you’ve probably tried the creams, the steroids, and maybe even eliminated random foods—but the flare-ups keep coming.

What if the real root of eczema isn’t on the skin at all?

In this healing episode, I’m joined by holistic health coach and mom of four, Andra McHugh, host of the Eczema Kids Podcast.

Andra shares her personal journey of healing her children’s severe eczema and the surprising connection between gut health and skin health.

You’ll learn:

• Why eczema is actually a sign of internal inflammation and leaky gut
  
  
• What’s really happening in the body during a flare-up (and why steroids make it worse long-term)
  
  
• Simple, realistic changes you can make starting at your next meal
  
  
• What to look for in skin-care and home products—and what to avoid
  
  
• How to start healing eczema naturally, even if you feel overwhelmed
  
  

Whether you're a mom trying to help your child heal, or you're struggling with eczema yourself, this conversation is full of practical tips, hopeful insights, and empowering next steps.

🎧 Hit play to learn how to start healing from the inside out.

✨ What to do after the donuts, cookies, or late-night snacks
✨ How to stop beating yourself up and start getting curious

This isn’t just another pep talk—it’s the real mindset work that changes everything.
