She has spent her career making food and health accessible to people who can't afford a 20-step morning routine — and this conversation goes places neither of them expected. Rachel and Catie get into what survival mode actually costs you. Why the wellness industry has made health aspirational instead of accessible. Why telling women to self-care without changing any of the actual conditions they're living in is just another layer of guilt. And what it feels like to look back on your daughter's early years and realise you don't remember them — because you were so deep in stress you weren't really there. Rachel also gets honest about where she's at right now. And somehow, by the end of it, finds one thing she can actually change. This one is for every woman standing at the bench feeding her kids breakfast while she has nothing but a coffee. It's practical, it's honest, and it will probably make you cry at least once. In this episode: Why the wellness industry has made health a purchase, not a right What survival mode does to your body — and your memory The breakfast change that shifted everything for Katie Why \"have you tried yoga?\" is some of the most expensive free advice women get The specific cruelty of heartbreak when you're parenting alone Find Catie: @thestaplestore Now What is hosted by Rachel Maksimovic.
