Ayurveda gets name-dropped a lot, but what is it really? And why are two women talking about it on a podcast about money?
In this episode, Kerry and Kristina break down the foundations of Ayurveda, not as ancient trivia but as a real, useful framework for how we relate to everything, including money. They explore the body types (vata, pitta, kapha), the five elements, and how understanding your personal makeup can give you practical tools to shift your habits, your energy, and yes, your bank account.
You’ll also hear how these ancient systems intersect with modern realities, from navigating Western medicine and fundraising to the way capitalism distorts our ideas of wellness and worth.
