We dive deep into the five elements theory (wood, fire, earth, metal, water) and how each element connects to specific organs, emotions, and physical manifestations in the body. Chloe explains why your tongue is a powerful diagnostic tool, revealing internal patterns through its color, coating, and marks. Those teeth marks on the sides of your tongue? They're actually showing spleen qi deficiency, common in overthinkers and worriers! The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we explore how hemp has been used in Chinese medicine for thousands of years. Far from being a modern addition, ancient Chinese practitioners recognized hemp's ability to tonify the liver, nourish the kidneys, and calm the heart (or spirit). Chloe breaks down the confusion around CBD, THC, and full-spectrum products, offering practical advice for finding quality products that actually work. Her insights on why full-spectrum hemp with that tiny 0.3% THC creates dramatically better results than isolates will change how you shop for these products. For women approaching or experiencing menopause, Chloe shares a beautiful perspective from Chinese medicine—viewing this transition as a "second spring" when energy previously directed toward reproduction redirects to the heart, allowing women to finally focus on themselves and share their authentic wisdom with the world. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, sleep issues, hormonal challenges, or simply seeking a more balanced approach to wellness, this conversation offers practical wisdom that bridges ancient knowledge with modern understanding. The key takeaway? Building health through daily choices that follow the "middle way"—not perfection, but progress toward balance in all aspects of life.
