Summary
Melissa Wood radiates in the most beautiful way, online and IRL… like so deeply! She is the founder of the Melissa Wood Health Method, a series of precise, low-impact movements as part of an online subscription. They are simple and straightforward enough that you can follow along in your home as if Melissa is there guiding you along, but they’re also deceptively intense in the best way. And they WORK. Melissa has always believed that you don’t need high intensity to see results which has inspired Jordan to no end.
Melissa talks candidly about her struggles with alcohol and eating disorders and how she overcame them, her relationship with her incredible husband Noah, life as a mom to her two littles, and how meditation is non-negotiable in her life. Jordan sees Melissa’s face shape shift into beautiful souls and past lives. The women have a deep connection and can’t believe this is their first time meeting in real life!
They also talk food combining, living plant based, working out, growing a business, living a soul on fire lifestyle, what is on the horizon, living without alcohol, and more. Melissa is so inspirational and you’re going to love her.
If you take the time out of your day to rate and review the show, Jordan would love to send you a free copy of her yoga ebook, Soul on Fire! It’s an amazing way to dive into your yoga practice. If you rate and review the podcast, send a screenshot to jordan@thebalancedone.com and she will send you her ebook personally for free!
Thank you to our sponsor for this episode, GoMacro. They are Jordan’s favorite vegan protein bar, but they are much more than a normal protein bar. Made of 100% plant-based ingredients, they have 16 delicious flavors including maple sea salt, oatmeal chocolate chip, blueberry cashew butter, and more. If you have any allergy or dietary restrictions, they have multiple nut-free flavors.
