"Recovery isn’t just for athletes—it’s for anyone seeking physical, mental, and emotional renewal."

In this heartfelt episode of the Women’s Wellness Summit Podcast, we welcome Molly Anjewierden, owner of Sweathouz in American Fork, to discuss wellness, motherhood, and the beauty of creating spaces where people feel at home. Molly takes us inside the world of contrast therapy, a powerful practice alternating between infrared saunas and cold plunges, helping people recover physically, mentally, and spiritually. Alongside her insights into self-care, Molly opens up about her journey as a mom—sharing wisdom on how to let go of mom guilt, embrace imperfection, and focus on what truly matters.

Molly encourages listeners to "get rid of that mom guilt—you’re crushing it! You got them up, dressed, and fed. You gave them life and a roof over their heads—that’s winning!" Reflecting on her early days as a mother, she shares, "I used to worry that my kids weren’t meeting every benchmark. But now I know—just being there for them is enough. Every day is different, and every kid is unique. There’s no ‘perfect’ parent, and comparison really is the thief of joy." These realizations shaped how she approaches parenting today, reminding us that self-compassion is key.

Molly’s mom mantra is deeply rooted in her desire to create a welcoming environment: "My house is your house. Everyone is welcome here, no matter who you are or where you come from. I want every guest—whether in my home or my studio—to feel loved and seen." This philosophy is the foundation of the experience she offers at Sweathouz, where every client feels nurtured, pampered, and empowered to focus on their well-being.

At Sweathouz, guests can immerse themselves in contrast therapy, alternating between infrared saunas, vitamin C showers, and cold plunges. Molly explains that “the vitamin C showers enhance collagen absorption and hair health, making them a perfect complement to the detoxifying saunas.” Guests leave feeling refreshed, renewed, and glowing. She shares a pro tip: “Leave a towel in the sauna to warm up. After the cold plunge, wrapping yourself in that warm towel feels like heaven.” Molly emphasizes that contrast therapy isn’t just for athletes, saying, “Every kid is different, and there’s no cookie-cutter approach to parenting." For her, recovery is a holistic practice that benefits everyone—mentally, physically, and spiritually.

Molly’s goal is to create more than a spa experience—she offers a space where guests feel they belong. "I want everyone who walks into Sweathouz to feel like they’re always welcome and loved," she explains. "Whether it’s a mom needing a break, an athlete recovering, or someone looking to reset mentally, this is a space for them." Molly also reflects on the power of embracing imperfection, both in her business and personal life: "There’s no perfect stride, and if there were, life would be boring. We’re all just doing our best out here in the wild, wild west."

If you’re ready to let go of guilt, embrace imperfection, and recharge your soul, Molly’s message will inspire you. Book a session at Sweathouz and experience contrast therapy like never before—because you deserve to feel your best!

She believes in the summit’s mission to integrate all aspects of wellness—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual—into a single event where women can find both resources and support. “We are not meant to navigate life alone,” she says. “Building community and sharing experiences help us realize we are never truly alone.”
