IN IT with Jordan Harper and Ashley Buckler

Most people have never connected the dots between how they breathe and what's happening to their health and the health issues they can't seem to solve. This episode changes that. Dr. Hilary Fritsch is an airway dentist in Bozeman, Montana who has spent a decade piecing together what traditional dental school never taught her. In this episode, she gets into why mouth breathing is behind more than anyone realizes (cavities, grinding, gum recession, crowded teeth, poor sleep, even ADHD-like behavior in kids), why your tongue is the architect of your face, and what parents of young children need to know before it's too late to course-correct. She also covers adult expanders, mouth taping, myofunctional therapy, and the one number your kid's orthodontist should be measuring but probably isn't.

Most of us don't think about their pelvic floor until something goes wrong. Peeing when you sneeze, pain during sex, a brutal postpartum recovery. By then, we’re already playing catch up. Dr. Lizzie Kieffer is a doctor of physical therapy who has made pelvic floor health accessible, practical, and something every woman can start working on today. In this episode, she gets into what the pelvic floor actually is and why it affects everything from incontinence to painful sex to how you breathe when you lift. She also covers why strength training is the single biggest thing you can do for long-term pelvic floor health, what diastasis recti actually is, and the everyday habits that are quietly working against you. Plus, she walks us through a breathing exercise you can do right now. It's never too late. But earlier is always better.

If you’ve ever felt like school doesn’t fully fit your child, this episode will expand how you think about what’s possible. MacKenzie Price is reimagining education, asking what we’re really preparing kids for and what learning should look like in a rapidly changing world. We talk about personalized learning, AI as a tool (not a threat), and why developing a child’s strengths, curiosity, and sense of purpose matters just as much as academics. She also shares a thoughtful perspective on teachers, why they matter more than ever, and how the system around them may need to evolve so they can do their best work. This isn’t about one school. It’s about rethinking education and giving parents better questions to ask.

If you've been working out consistently and still not seeing results, it's not you. It's what you've been taught. Dr. Shannon is a doctor of physical therapy who built eight pounds of muscle and lost five pounds of fat in one year while cutting her workout time nearly in half. In this episode, she breaks down why most women are training in a way that was designed to sell, not to work, what muscular failure actually means and why it's the only thing that moves the needle, and how to structure your week so strength training, cardio, and recovery are all working together. She also gets into why Pilates probably isn't toning you, what weighted vests actually do (and don't do), and why squats aren't required. Boring routines that lead to consistent results? We're getting into it.

If you've ever sat in your car and cried from the overwhelm (like Jordan did this morning), you already know what mental load is. Paige Connell built a loyal following for giving women the words for what they're carrying. In this episode, she breaks down why the mental load never feels shorter, why "just tell me what to do" doesn't actually help, and the step-by-step process she used to redistribute the work in her own marriage, including a spreadsheet, a two-hour couch conversation, and the 18 months it took to get it right. She also gets into why making the invisible labor visible matters more than any individual task, what it actually means to feel seen, and how to set minimum standards so you and your partner are finally working from the same page. This one's worth clearing your head for. Find Paige Connell on Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn or her website.

Before you book that laser, read this. Jordan has spent the last decade experiencing the treatment room from both perspectives: as a provider and patient, and the biggest mistake she consistently sees is jumping into in-office treatments before the skin is properly prepped. In this episode, she breaks down the ideal order of operations, starting with building a consistent daily routine and working your way up to more advanced treatments like CO2 lasers. She also unpacks what “collagen banking” really means, how microneedling actually works, and why choosing the right provider is ultimately more important than choosing the right treatment. And yes, a good provider should sometimes tell you no. We're getting into all of it. New to Barefaced?

If you've ever looked at your husband and felt something closer to resentment than romance, you're not broken. Dr. Tracy is a couples therapist and psychologist who has spent nearly 20 years sitting across from couples with young kids, busy careers, and the creeping feeling that this wasn't what they signed up for. In this episode, she gets into the patterns that keep couples stuck, why resentment isn't a red flag but contempt is, and the three questions you can ask every night that replace years of miscommunication. We're taking notes.

You've tried the products and treatments. You're not seeing results. Here's why. Jordan Harper built Barefaced around one observation: women were spending real money on treatments without the foundation their skin actually needed first. In this episode, she tells her full story, from a pivotal dermatologist appointment at 15 years old to launching a skincare brand out of her garage while six months pregnant, and breaks down the Core Four: the exfoliant, antioxidant, retinoid, and sunscreen that make everything else work. No guesswork. No gimmicks. Just skin that functions. New to Barefaced?

You're in your 30s or 40s. You're building something, raising someone, and trying to take care of yourself at the same time. The questions are piling up: about your health, your hormones, your relationships, your ambition. Most days, no one in the room has the right answers. IN IT is where those questions get taken seriously. Jordan Harper is a board-certified nurse practitioner, founder and CEO of Barefaced, and a mom of four. Ashley Buckler is Barefaced's Chief Brand Officer and the kind of person who blends ambition with romanticizing life. Together, they bring in leading experts — and occasionally each other — to work through the topics that actually matter in this chapter: hormones, mental load, marriage, mindset, perimenopause, parenting, ambition, and everything in between. No highlight reels. No hustle culture. No toxic optimism. Just honest conversations and better information, so you can move through this season of life with more clarity and less noise. These are foundational years. Make them count. Follow In It on Instagram @in.it.podcast
