She explores what it means to have a solution-oriented mindset and how even the smallest changes can create more ease in your day. Melissa shares how she’s been eliminating decision fatigue and why setting up her day starts the night before. She also talks about the importance of taking honest inventory of habits like alcohol and caffeine—and how eye-opening that process can be. Plus, she opens up about a recent shift in her routine—getting in the shower earlier—and the surprising difference it’s made in how she feels. This episode is a gentle nudge to tune in, take stock, and start creating real change from the inside out.Follow us on Instagram at @melissawoodtepperberg and @melissawoodhealthLimited Time Offer: Use code movewithheart when you sign up for a monthly membership to get your first month FREE on melissawoodhealth.com.

Ep 109: The Keys to Longevity with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson Founder of Fatty15
In this episode, Melissa sits down with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, founder of Fatty15, to explore the keys to longevity, the importance of essential nutrients, and how to live a vibrant, purpose-driven life. Stephanie shares the fascinating story of how she accidentally discovered C15:0—the first essential fatty acid identified in over 90 years—through her groundbreaking work with Navy dolphins. Together, they dive into the science behind Fatty15, its powerful benefits (especially for those avoiding dairy), and how optimizing this nutrient can help restore our healthspan and give us more time and energy for the things we love most. The conversation goes beyond supplements, touching on the importance of letting go of rigid wellness labels, embracing moderation, and making healthy living more accessible and sustainable. Stephanie also unpacks why many common supplements—like gummies—may not be as effective as we think, and shares insights from her new book, The Longevity Nutrient, which simplifies complex science into actionable, everyday tools.

Ep 107: Healing Deep Wounds with Lewis Howes
In this moving episode, Melissa sits down with best-selling author and School of Greatness host, Lewis Howes, for a conversation about healing, self-worth, and transforming your relationship with money. Lewis opens up about being sexually abused at age five, how that trauma led to anxiety and emotional instability, and why he never felt truly safe growing up—eventually leaving home at just 13. He shares what it means to be emotionally and spiritually broken, and how we often need to become the adult we didn’t have to create safety within ourselves. Melissa opens up about her own scarcity mindset around money and feelings of survivor’s guilt, and Lewis offers heartfelt advice on how to shift into a place of service and abundance. They explore the idea of becoming a “money magnet,” the importance of knowing your money story, and why expressing gratitude—even to money—can be a game changer. Lewis also shares insights from his new book, Make Money Easy, inviting us all to rewrite the way we view wealth and worth.Save 15% on your Premium Starter Kit and the NEW Branch Basics Laundry Detergent when you use code MWH15 at branchbasics.com/melissa.Use promo code MWH for 10% at bioptimizers.com/mwh.Follow us on Instagram at @melissawoodtepperberg and @melissawoodhealthLimited Time Offer: Use code movewithheart when you sign up for a monthly membership to get your first month FREE on melissawoodhealth.com.

Ep 106: Managing “It All”
This solo episode begins with a grounding moment from Melissa for a soft return to the breath and a gentle reminder to come back to presence. The heart of this conversation is a powerful lesson: when we try to control other people’s reactions, we’re really being called to regulate ourselves first, to create calm and safety within, before expecting it from the outside. Melissa reminds us life will always bring its waves—the highs and the lows—but what truly matters is how we move through it all. We explore what it looks like to bring more peacefulness into the everyday, starting with how we show up for ourselves in the morning. If you find yourself feeling reactive or easily annoyed, this is your invitation to tune in. There’s so much power in the pause, because it’s in those quiet moments that true certainty begins to reveal itself.You can find The Period Program now on melissawoodhealth.com!
