Summary
Jordan chats with Dana James, who does just so many things: she’s a functional medicine nutritionist who blends Western medicine with holistic practices, a cognitive behavioral therapist, and the author The Archetype Diet: Reclaim Your Self-Worth and Change the Shape of Your Body.
So what is The Archetype Diet? Well, it’s incredible and such a unique approach to our relationship with good. This new approach to holistic wellness can help you find your unique female archetype to combat emotional eating, lose weight, and become your happiest, healthiest you.
Jordan is an Ethereal – of course! – and Dana is a Wonder Woman, which explains how she’s able to rock a bi-coastal life and get so much done. Want to know what archetype you are?!

If you suffer from an eating disorder or body image issues, or just issues with food in general, I think you’ll find Dana’s work extremely helpful and wonderfully inspirational.
Dana + Jordan are also giving away one FREE copy of Dana’s book, The Archetype Diet!!

EverlyWell offers a variety of home health tests, for everything from food sensitivities to vitamin levels to women’s health.

Are you #OnShrooms yet? Jordan has been loving Four Sigmatic more than ever (if you haven’t already, check out episode 85 with the company’s founder, Tero Isokauppila) because she’s cut out coffee entirely. If you’re trying to stay off of coffee but still want to feel alert and awake, there’s nothing better for you or better tasting than the caffeine-free Four Sigmatic Chaga Elixir (with some almond milk, a date, and cinnamon, it makes a great latte!). You can go to FourSigmatic.com/BLONDE to get 15% off of your order!
We’d also like to thank HUM Nutrition! Jordan has been talking about them on the blog for YEARS because they help her feel amazing, and she wants you to know about them, too! HUM is an all-natural line of supplements, and their goal is to use science-based and clinical-backed nutrition as a tool for helping people feel amazing. After being diagnosed with Lyme, Jordan has been all about HUM’s different detoxification supplements like the Daily Cleanse. When you go to HUMNutrition.com, don’t forget to use the discount code SOUL at checkout to get 20% off your first order!
