✨ Today’s Whatchu' Doin’ North Carolina Business Spotlight is Vital Wellness!

Meet Vital Wellness | Whatchu Doin’ NC Business Spotlight
I sat down with Catherine Kittrell and Doug Taron to talk about their approach to helping people feel better, understand what’s happening with their bodies, and take a more proactive approach to their health.

We talk about hormone optimization, medical weight loss, IV hydration, peptide therapy, sexual health, overall wellness and more-including some of those changes we sometimes brush off as “just getting older.”

If you’ve been saying, “I just don’t feel like myself lately,” this is a conversation you’ll want to hear.

🎥 Meet Catherine and Doug and find out exactly what Vital Wellness is all about!

I Accidentally Became a Gardener! 😂 | Whatchu' Doin’ North Carolina

I never thought I’d say this...but I am officially addicted to gardening! 😂

What started as “I’ll just grow a few vegetables” has turned into a backyard greenhouse, checking my plants a million times a day, and constantly looking for my next thing to plant!

And honestly? I love it. When life gets a little cluttered, I can go outside, get in the dirt and just...breathe. 🌱

I also discovered two Wilmington spots that I somehow never knew about Farmers Supply on Oleander and The Plant Place on Market Street, and let's just say...I may have found my new shopping problem! 😂

So I'm asking YOU: Where do you go for your plants, seeds and gardening supplies? And what are you growing?

Tell me your favorite local gardening spots because apparently...I need more places to shop! 😂🌱

This is Whatchu Doin' NC with Demia Avery.

🎙️ And a special thank-you to Godfrey Waypoint Advisors for supporting today’s conversation.

🎥 Whatchu' Doin’ North Carolina BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

Are you really as prepared as you think you are when it comes to safety and compliance?

In this spotlight, I’m talking with Tom Godfrey of Godfrey Waypoint Advisors about the things business owners may overlook when it comes to workplace safety, compliance, and risk.

Tom shares some great insight on what businesses should be looking for—and why sometimes it helps to have an experienced set of eyes take a closer look.

Come meet Tom and find out what he’s doing in NC!

# # 🎙️ TELL ME ABOUT… What Made North Carolina Feel Like Home? ❤️

** is changing things up—and I need YOUR help with this one!**

Here's the thing…I'm not originally from North Carolina. So when people tell me:

*"Girl, you should've seen NC back then!"*

Or...

*"You don't know about THAT place? Everybody used to go there!"* 😂

I wasn't here—**so y'all are going to have to tell me!**

Welcome to **NC, Tell Me About…**, a new Whatchu Doin NC series where I want to discover the people, places, restaurants, businesses, neighborhoods, traditions and hangouts that made North Carolina feel like HOME.

But we're not just going to sit around complaining about how everything used to be better. 😂

I want to know:

❤️ What do you remember?
😢 What do you miss?
🏠 What made your community feel like home?
🙌 And what do we STILL have in NC that we need to make sure we don't lose?

And YES, you get **ONE complaint!** 😂

🎥 **I'm sharing this FIRST FULL EPISODE right here on Facebook so you can see what the new series is all about.**

But here's the big change:

🎧 **Future FULL episodes of the Whatchu Doin NC podcast will be on SPOTIFY.** https://open.spotify.com/episode/2O01ZfQfKCquRiM0Gt83Dd?si=Oe71goYqT8SNb4l5045svA

I'll continue posting clips, questions, conversations and updates here on Facebook, and I'll always give you the Spotify link when a new episode drops.

And don't worry—**LIVE interviews aren't going away!** I'll still sit down from time to time with interesting people doing amazing things across North Carolina.

Now I need YOU!

👇 Finish this sentence in the comments:

**“Demia, you HAVE to do a show about __________.”**

Give me the restaurant. The club. The mall. The skating rink. The radio station. The neighborhood. The festival. The beach tradition. The local business. The person everybody knew.

**But don't just give me the name—TELL ME THE STORY!**

North Carolina, I'm listening. ❤️

🎙️ **NC…TELL ME ABOUT IT!**
