In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Sylvie Filteau, a former covert agent with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police turned spiritual mentor, priestess, and psycho-spiritual counselor.

In this refreshingly honest episode, Sheri Davidson shares how the Netflix show Nailed It! perfectly captures what wellness truly looks like in real life—messy, imperfect, and full of heart. In this episode, you’ll discover: • Why chasing perfect routines keeps you stuck in the start-stop cycle • How showing up—imperfectly—is the secret to consistency • The truth about beauty, worth, and wellness (and why your dinner doesn’t need to be Instagram-worthy) • A simple mindset shift to help you laugh, learn, and keep going “You can love beautiful things and still give yourself permission to be imperfect. That’s not hypocrisy. That’s honesty.” Tune in for a real-world reminder that you don’t have to be perfect to be well, just willing to participate. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61756aeec8e33e3a7fd04373/5f2740ea-57e7-4862-bb94-94f6bfd10f63/87+banner-3.png Podcast In this episode, I dive into the intersection of beauty, self-worth, and real-life wellness. As a former designer turned acupuncturist and wellness coach, I’ve learned that perfectionism can make both beauty and wellness fragile. For years, I chased flawless spaces, routines, and results — until I realized something deeper: beauty that can’t hold your chaos isn’t beauty. It’s a cage. In this conversation, I unpack what that means — how design taught me about control, chaos, and self-trust, and why real wellness isn’t about picture-perfect routines or golden-hour matcha moments. In this episode, I share: Why perfectionism makes beauty (and wellness) fragile How design taught me about control, chaos, and self-trust What “beauty that can’t hold your chaos” really means How to build a wellness practice that’s flexible, honest, and sustainable ⠀✨ This is a grounded, heart-opening reflection on what it means to love beauty without letting it define your worth. “ beauty that can’t hold your chaos isn’t beauty.

In this episode, we explore why habit change isn’t a willpower problem at all, but a nervous system one, and how supporting your physiology can make consistency feel lighter and more sustainable. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why habits feel emotional — and why that doesn’t mean you’re failing How stress and nervous system overload interfere with follow-through What nervous system regulation actually changes in real life (and in the clinic) Simple, realistic ways to support your nervous system without adding pressure If this episode resonated, send me a DM and share one small habit you’re supporting this season — I’d love to hear what you’re noticing. “Habit collapse isn’t a character flaw — it’s a capacity issue.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61756aeec8e33e3a7fd04373/40de5d77-aeec-4339-b864-df93ed714a0b/90+banner.png Podcast The start of a new year often comes with big goals, high motivation, and pressure to reset everything, but I’ve seen again and again that this intensity often leads to burnout instead of lasting change. In this episode of The Wellness Inspired Podcast, I share a steadier, smarter approach to habit-building—one that works even when life feels full, stressful, or unpredictable. I talk about why motivation and inspiration matter, but why they can’t be the foundation of sustainable habits, and why starting small is often the most strategic way to build consistency that actually lasts. In this episode, I explore: Why motivation and inspiration are important, but can’t sustain habits on their own How pressure and intensity quietly sabotage consistency Why starting small helps your nervous system feel safe moving forward How habits shift from effort to identity over time A more realistic way to approach wellness during demanding seasons. “When you stay consistent long enough, you don’t just do the thing. You become the kind of person who does it.” — Sheri Davidson https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61756aeec8e33e3a7fd04373/0b458ee9-e179-4342-94a3-fae146150645/90+banner.png Podcast Wellness retreats and immersive travel experiences can be deeply meaningful—guests leave feeling lighter, clearer, and inspired. But for many, that momentum fades once they return home. In this episode of The Wellness Inspired Podcast, Sheri Davidson explores why wellness habits often fall apart after retreats and introduces the concept of the integration gap. Drawing from firsthand experience hosting a wellness river cruise and attending wellness resorts, Sheri explains why fading habits are not a motivation problem, but a context problem—and how small, supported habits create more sustainable outcomes for guests and wellness brands alike. This episode offers a grounded, human-centered perspective for wellness retreat founders, resort wellness directors, and experience designers who want their offerings to create lasting impact beyond checkout. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61756aeec8e33e3a7fd04373/1771522075587-65MH2FHA059DSE3YVWWD/92%2Bbanner.png Podcast How Your Environment Shapes Your Well-Being, Energy & Daily Habits We often focus on habits, discipline, and motivation when trying to improve our well-being. But what if the real issue isn’t willpower — it’s environment? In this episode, I explore how your home, neighborhood, and daily surroundings influence your energy, consistency, and ability to sustain healthy habits. From lighting and layout to friction and functionality, your environment may be shaping your behavior more than you realize. This is the first episode in the Design & Living Well series. A conversation about environmental wellness and how the spaces we live in quietly shape how we feel and function every day. In this episode, you’ll discover: How your home environment affects your mental clarity and daily energy Why friction in your surroundings can sabotage healthy habits The connection between environmental design and habit sustainability What happiness research reveals about home satisfaction and life satisfaction Why ease in your environment is not indulgent It’s supportive If you’ve ever felt like your habits don’t stick, this episode offers a new lens: it may not be a motivation problem. It may be an environmental problem. Listen in and start noticing the conditions shaping your daily life. “Nice design isn’t just decoration.

Others quietly drain your energy without you even realizing it. In this episode of the Design + Living Well series, Sheri explores why certain environments support well-being while others create friction that makes everyday life feel harder than it needs to be. In this episode, you’ll discover: • How clutter and disorganization increase decision fatigue and mental load • Why sensory input in your home affects your nervous system and energy • How layout and flow influence how easily you move through daily routines • Why simplicity in design makes healthy choices easier to sustain "A disorganized space doesn't just look messy. It generates decisions."

You settle. You breathe. Something shifts. In this episode of the Design & Living Well series, Sheri explores why that feeling isn’t random. It’s rooted in our connection to nature, and how bringing natural elements into our spaces can quietly support healing, calm, and clarity.
