Ashley is joined by Aly French and Erica Stein, Certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coaches, health and wellness experts, and podcast hosts. Courageous Wellness Collective is Aly and Erica’s extended community of like-minded individuals who have come together to learn, grow, thrive and work towards improved personal and community wellness. They recognize that the wellness industry can be highly inaccessible and are here to bridge the gap between individual journeys and community initiatives. After a cancer diagnosis and recovery (Aly) and a self-love journey that led to a sustained 50lb weight loss experience (Erica) they created the Courageous Wellness Collective for real people to improve and advocate for their own sense of health and well being.

In this episode, the women chat about their personal wellness journeys, spirituality practices, trends in the wellness space, stress reduction, shifting the weight loss conversation and how we as a collective can navigate optimal health without toxic diet culture, triggers that can often come with weight loss experiences, learning that healthy comes in many shapes and sizes, the gut-microbiome, simple and tactical wellness practices, and more. 

On the Courageous Wellness Podcast and through their community, Aly and Eric share conversations, articles, recipes, and coaching services to help you feel your best, love your body, and be equipped with the most up to date health and wellness knowledge for any stage of your health journey.
