In this week’s Cultivate Calmness Podcast, Kaela Vance, LPCC-S, trades New Year hype for honest holiday momentum—sharing why she believes in “testing, not guessing” and how small, compassionate steps create real change. From Christmas-sweater cheer to practical first moves, Kaela walks through lab options she’s using herself (basic bloodwork, hair mineral analysis, and stool testing), what those results can illuminate, and how to translate insights into doable habits—hydration, nutrient support, movement, and mindset—without waiting for January 1. If you’re curious about a functional, root-cause approach to mental health and want a therapist who will walk the path with you, this episode offers clarity, encouragement, and an invitation to begin.
