It's All Connected

About It's All Connected

It’s All Connected is where functional medicine meets real life — no fluff, no fearmongering, just real talk about hormones, fertility, and the kind of life that includes school pickup lines, chaotic mornings, and yes… Oreos before bed. I’m Kinsey Olson — founder of Motherland Wellness, functional nurse, and your no-BS guide to finally figuring out what the hell is going on with your hormones. I’m here to call out the fearmongering and fads in the wellness world and show you how to actually heal without turning into a full-time celery juicer. Each Tuesday, we’ll unpack all things hormones, fertility, gut health, mental health, and the not-so-Instagram-perfect realities of motherhood, work, and womanhood. Expect solo deep dives into topics like mineral balance, burnout, PMS, and postpartum — plus real conversations with practitioners, entrepreneurs, and women just like you who are sharing their stories, wisdom, and breakthroughs. We’ll bust wellness myths that aren’t serving you, talk about why “balance” looks different for every body, and have the honest conversations most people aren’t having — with a little cursing, a lot of compassion, and plenty of side tangents (because… it’s all connected). Whether you’re here to support your body before trying to conceive, heal your hormones, or just need a chatty big-sister in your earbuds during school pickup, this podcast is for you. Hit follow so you don’t miss an episode, and let’s make functional wellness realistic, compassionate, and actually doable — together.

   13. Is 'Unexplained Infertility' Real? The Root Causes Most Doctors Miss

   Have you been told your labs are normal… but you’re still not pregnant? If you’ve received the label “unexplained infertility,” this episode might completely reframe what’s actually happening in your body. Because unexplained doesn’t mean nothing is wrong.

   12. Your Period Is a Health Report Card (And Here’s What It Actually Means)

   Are painful, heavy, or irregular periods really “normal”… or have we just been told they are? Most women were taught how to hide their period, not how to understand it. We were taught to discreetly carry tampons. Push through cramps. Accept heavy bleeding. Laugh off PMS rage. Assume exhaustion before our cycle is just part of being a woman. Your period is one of the clearest monthly health signals your body gives you. In this episode, we’re breaking down what your cycle is actually telling yo...

   10. Five Things I Don't Give a Sh*t About as a Mom

   Last week I told you the five things I do care about as a parent so today we’re flipping the script. I’m sharing the five things I absolutely do not give a shit about. Some of these I used to be type-A obsessed with, and others I’ve never cared about for even one second. Motherhood has humbled me, softened me, and honestly just rearranged my priorities in a way that feels a hell of a lot healthier. First up: the mess. I don’t care how dirty my kid gets or how many messes he creates. We live o...

   9. Five Things I Care About as a Mom Raising a Son

   I wasn’t planning on recording today, but it’s snowing, my house is quiet, and after changing a poopy pull-up at midnight, I had a very clear thought: the things I thought would matter as a parent do not matter. At all. The things I actually care about now are way simpler… and way deeper. First up: breakfast. I don’t force my kid to eat but when he skips breakfast I notice a huge difference in his day. Emotional regulation starts with blood sugar. If he’s hangry, we’re all going down with the...

   7. Why Most Functional Care Doesn’t Stick — and What We Do Differently

   This is something I’ve wanted to talk about for a long time — but I could never quite put it into words. Then, after hearing the same frustrations come up again and again in my discovery calls lately, I realized it was time. We’re getting into why most functional medicine doesn’t actually stick — and what we do differently here at Motherland to make sure we’re the last practitioners you ever have to work with. Here’s the deal: most of the women who come to us have already worked with other fu...

   6. Sustainable Weight Loss + Why You Can't Lose Weight

   Let’s talk about a topic that so many women feel ashamed of—and I really want to take that shame out of it—weight loss. There’s a lot of noise around this topic, and honestly, most of it is really annoying. So today, I’m breaking down what’s actually going on inside your body and why so many women feel stuck when it comes to changing their body composition. Here’s the thing: if you’ve tried all the things and nothing’s working, it’s not because you’re broken or lazy. It’s because your body is...

    5. 6 Things Messing With Your Hormones

    Let’s talk hormones, shall we? I know you probably feel like you’re doing everything right — working out, eating well, buying all the supplements — but your cycle is still unpredictable and your energy feels off. The truth is, some of the things you think are helping might actually be doing the opposite. In this episode, I’m breaking down six sneaky things that might be f*ing with your hormones and what to do instead. We’re talking supplements (and why “random influencer recs” aren’t it), wee...

    4. Why We Decided For a Bigger Age Gap + Personal Thoughts on Maybe Being One and Done?

    I’ve been wanting to chat about this for a while, and honestly, this one feels extra personal. I cozied up with my water, blanket, and sweatshirt for this conversation because it’s one that’s been on my mind quite a bit lately — the whole “do we want another baby?” conversation. When Chris and I first talked about kids, we were totally those people who said, “Yeah, two under two sounds great.” Like… that’s just what you do, right? Keep yourself in baby mode, give your kid a built-in buddy, an...

    2. My Birth Story: Navigating Hyperemesis, A No-Show Midwife, and a Homebirth to Hospital Transfer

    I’ve never shared Rylo’s birth story publicly—until now. This episode feels both vulnerable and freeing, because his birth shaped so much of who I am today and even plays into why we haven’t had another baby yet. From the moment we started trying to conceive, I was full of hope and anticipation. But by week six of pregnancy, everything shifted. I was hit with hyperemesis gravidarum, and let me tell you, throwing up 12–18 times a day until 34 weeks pregnant was brutal. I couldn’t eat, I could ...

    1. Five Things Keeping Me From Losing My Sh*t

    We made it. Welcome to episode one of It’s All Connected. Not gonna lie, this is actually my second attempt at recording episode one because apparently tech issues are a podcaster’s nightmare and, yep, I already hit it. But here we are — I’m officially a podcaster now! I was supposed to launch this podcast back in December 2020, right after I found out I was pregnant with Rylo. But then hyperemesis decided to ruin my life (hi, puking 18 times a day). Then came birth, then motherhood, then bui...
