Hi friends, I’m writing to you this week from the cool mountain air (a nice change from August in Houston!). In this edition, you’ll find our brand-new Curated Guide to Functional Medicine in Houston—a handpicked list of local practitioners who take a root-cause approach to care. Plus, I sat down with my friend Chelsea, founder of Sourdoha HTX (Classes by Chelsea), to talk all things sourdough and her favorite Houston wellness spot.
And of course, I rounded up a few Houston happenings and wellness finds so you’ve got fresh ideas right at your fingertips.
Take a deep breath, grab an iced matcha, and let’s dive in.

If you’re like me, you’ve sent a dozen texts to your OG crunchy friends asking, “Do you know a doctor who actually supports alternative vaccine schedules?” or “Know any doctors who won’t roll their eyes at gut health questions?” This guide was created to be that go-to list—a curated, evolving resource where you can find trusted care for yourself and your family. We’ll keep updating it over time, if you have a favorite provider we missed, we’d love to hear from you—send us an email!
Sourdough Simplified: Classes by Chelsea
Sourdough had a serious moment during COVID—and let’s be honest, it never really left. Whether you’re a global popstar or just a curious home cook, there’s something magnetic about the process. I learned from the best right here in Houston: Chelsea of Sourdoha HTX (Classes by Chelsea). I was instantly hooked. For months, I baked two loaves a day (yes, really) trying to perfect it. Sourdough hit that sweet spot of being just challenging enough to feel exciting, but totally doable for real life.
Check out my chat with Chelsea where we talk all things fermentation, finding joy in the process, and why she loves teaching others how to bake.
