Live & Lead With Heart: Recent Episodes
Alexandra Swenson-Ridley
Welcome to "Live & Lead with Heart", the podcast where we help entrepreneurs and leaders shift out of your head and connect with the intelligence of your heart. Join us for short, weekly episodes packed with practical insights and inspiring stories designed to ignite your passion, renew your energy, navigate the hard stuff and reconnect you with your purpose. It's time to lead with empathy, cultivate compassion, especially for ourselves, and live with heart. Tune in weekly to transform your leadership journey from the inside out.
This week we're tuning into those moments in life when our gut/heart/intuition has spoken to us, but we've for some reason or another ignored it.
Dr. Alex shares one of her earliest experiences of this from her career in a story about her first and only boss post chiropractic school that involves, guns, jail time and a hit man.
While entertaining, this short episode is also an invitation to you to look for your own gut reactions and instinct calls in your history and start to explore what had you not trust them if you didn't follow their call .

As we celebrate our 250th episode we are exploring the theme of personal growth journeys. Sometimes in the process of our next level we outgrow certain aspects of our lives and have to clear space for change.
With the milestone of the 250th episode, I have reached one of those pinnacles where it is time to leave my role of podcast host behind and instead lean into the mediums of writing and becoming a guest rather than a host. It is with a lot of gratitude, a little sadness and a whole lot of excitement that I share the final episode of this show.
The existing 250 episodes will live on, we will just no longer be adding new episodes. Here's to the growth and changes each of us embraces when we truly lean into the guidance of our heart and allow ourselves to shift in the next version of who we're meant to be.
The show may be ending, but I would love to stay connected with you! Find me on LinkedIn or visit www.emergentwomencoaching.com/links to subscribe to our new newsletter-The Heart of It.
HeartConnect Thursdays will still be streamed live to LinkedIn and YouTube, so make sure you connect with us there.
With love, appreciation and fond farewell,

Today's episode features Nicole Trick-Steinbach, an international bravery coach who emphasizes that bravery is a skill that can be developed intentionally. She shares her journey from chasing on-paper success to creating a fulfilling life focused on connection, rest, and joy. Nicole coaches women to embrace bravery, let go of perfectionism, and pursue fulfillment. Tune in to learn how one shift in mindset can make a huge difference in life.
International Bravery Coach Nicole Trick Steinbach teaches that bravery isn’t something people are born with or without; it’s a skill that must be intentionally built and refined so we can become what we yearn to be. Nicole chased the vision of “on-paper success” for 20 years before realizing that focusing on metrics over happiness had left her exhausted, burnt out, and lonely. Since then she has worked to create a wonderfully fulfilling life full of connection and appreciation, rest and joy, safety and wealth. Nicole now coaches other women to build their brave, let go of their perfectionism, put themselves first, and grow - as professionals and as people.

Welcome Back to the Reimagined Podcast!In this episode, I reflect on the past year and the concept of "zigging before zagging" in life and career. After a hiatus since May 2023, I'm recording this on the last day of the year, feeling reflective and ready to share my journey with you.
Last year, I shifted my focus to supporting women chiropractors, which was a necessary "zig" for my personal and professional growth. This detour allowed me to heal from past traumas, including a bankruptcy and challenging experiences within the healthcare system. Now, as I "zag" back, I'm excited to broaden my scope to support heart-centered women entrepreneurs and leaders.
This podcast has undergone several changes, including a new name and direction. Previously known as the Intuitive Women's Leadership Podcast, we're now embracing the theme of "RISE," which stands for Rejuvenating your body and spirit, Innovating your business and leadership, building Strength in your identity and boundaries, and Emerging as a powerful version of yourself.
Listeners can expect a mix of interviews, growth edge discussions, and solo shows with practical tools for personal and professional development. I'll also be releasing some previously recorded but unreleased episodes that are still relevant and important.
I challenge the notion that we don't accomplish anything, especially as high achievers. It's crucial to recognize our growth, even if it doesn't always feel like it. This podcast aims to support you in recognizing and celebrating your achievements and growth edges.
I also introduce the Emergent Women Enterprises and the Emergent Women Coaching as constants in my business journey, despite the shifts in focus. The core of my mission remains to help women thrive without burnout, finding joy and freedom in what they do.
I share my excitement for the upcoming year, including the launch of the RISE community, a free space for connection and support, a book club, live events, and a mastermind for those looking to transform their leadership and business practices.
Lastly, I invite you to join me in the RISE community, hosted on Circle, away from the noise of social media. Let's embark on a journey of growth and thriving together.
Stay tuned for weekly episodes filled with inspiration, support, and lively discussions. I'm here to enjoy and experience life with you, through all its ups and downs.
Join us at emergentwomencoaching.com/rise-community and let's rise together!
See you on the next episode!

Are you a heart centered woman leader, entrepreneur and visionary who has found yourself burnt out in pursuit of your dreams, achieving success on paper but still feeling unfulfilled, or realizing following all the should’s and supposed to’s of the business world has left you with a business and life you don’t really want or love? This is the podcast for you.
I’m your host Dr. Alex Swenson-Ridley, and I’m on a mission to help heart centered women leaders and entrepreneurs called to serve the world in a big way alter their experience from one of sacrifice and burnout to unadulterated joy and freedom.
If we haven’t met yet, I’m a formerly burnt out chiropractor and 7 figure practice owner known for setting figurative fire to the business that at the height of it’s success became like a prison to me. I learned a lot of hard lessons in the process, including healing from an eventual bankruptcy with that practice as the universe tried to get me to pay attention, layers of trauma from the career and business I was supposed to love, and hitting a rock bottom that ultimately led me to embark on a deep healing journey.
On the other side I found my ability to RISE into an even more powerful and connected version of myself.
I also learned I am not alone in my experience, and Reimagined was born as the show to support other amazing women going through their own uncomfortable growth edges.
Here we give you the inspiration and permission to break all the rules, tap into your intuition, zone of genius and creativity to give you the confidence to do things differently. You will learn tools and hear stories that will inspire you to rejuvenate your spirit, innovate how you lead and do business, strengthen your core identity and connect deeply to yourself so that you emerge as the next powerful version of you on the other side.
Reimagined isn’t just a podcast, it’s also the launching point of a movement I refer to as the RISE. To support the women who listen to this show and who are committed to their own RISE, I host a free community of like minded women off of social media on Circle as a safe space to discuss and implement what you learn here, and most importantly not go it alone.
You’re in the right place if you have the courage to confront what you’ve been told are the keys to success and challenge the status quo. Are you ready to Reimagine your life and business to create what you actually want? And join a community of other women leaders and entrepreneurs doing the same? Let’s dive in!

Today's conversation is one of those less talked about things in the world of leadership and business...how do we show up fully as ourselves in our roles, including our spiritual side?
I'm joined by Lindsay Sutherland, a friend and fellow podcast lover who left a 6 figure career in a male dominated industry to follow her dreams. Today we're unpacking lessons learned from our previous careers and roles as leaders and managers in our organizations struggling to show up fully self expressed in our roles without having to stifle a part of ourselves.
We also give some examples of powerful ways to start difficult conversations and dive into using DISC profiles as a tool to build and communicate with your team.

Have you given yourself permission to succeed? It could be at anything. Business, your career, your health, in relationships.
Personally I recently had a huge realization that I've been punishing myself for things that happened in the past in my business. And I'm finally ready and giving myself permission to stop living into my past and leave it where it belongs.
Today's episode is a deep dive into hwo we start to do just that.
How do you pivot or leap out of career burnout? We all have our reasons for staying in a career or continuing to pursue a business that is not really serving our fulfillment and well being.
Today's conversation with Suzanne Monroe is a deep dive into how you lead the change, whether it's in staying where you're at or pivoting to what's next, the change begins with each of us.
The change is also required to not continually repeat the patterns of burnout that will inevitably follow if you haven't taken the time to identify them.
This conversation is an absolute must listen, especially if you're feeling burned out in your career.
Suzanne Monroe was working a high pressure job that didn’t align with her personal beliefs, where the corporate culture was to sleep under your desk instead of going home to rest and recharge that led her to experience career burnout. Simultaneously, a close loved one was diagnosed with a health crisis and every doctor told them there was nothing traditional medicine could do to help. This is where her holistic health journey began. She then poured herself into researching, reading, and ultimately helping her loved one turn the corner towards healing, sparking her passion for wellness and inspiring her to leave corporate America and traditional healthcare behind her.
Suzanne, the formerly burnt out corporate America employee, is now doing what she loves as the Founder of The International Association of Wellness Professionals (IAWP), Director of the IAWP’s Holistic Wellness Coach Certification and Training Program, and author. She aims to help people reawaken their purpose and find a career they love, as well as live a healthy and happy lifestyle. Last year alone, she helped reach 11.5 Million people with the message of holistic wellness and living a life you love. She’s also the author of Live Well Dream Big: The Ultimate Guide to Becoming Your Best Self & Living Life On Your Own Terms and the podcast host of Live Well Dream Big.

I recently became aware of just how many women are in careers or own businesses that have left them traumatized, physically and emotionally broken, and feeling like they're trapped with no way out.
This episode is about how we start to heal from that place, how we start to redefine success and the deeper conversation we need to have as professional women in how we redefine our roles and success so that we no longer do life this way.
If this episode either confronts or inspires you, I'd love to hear from you! Send me a message via voice or email at www.iwl.show

Episode Transcript:
[01:07] Dr. Alex: Hello. Welcome back to the show. I'm your host. Dr. Alex winson. ridley. I'm really excited to be joined today by leah Marie. I realized I didn't ask her last name, but mazor, who is a certified divorce recovery coach for women and the founder of mindfully Ready, LLC. She specializes in helping women release guilt, shame and feelings of failure so that they can find acceptance, rebuild their self confidence, and thrive after divorce. She also provides a safe, judgment free community for women rebuilding after divorce in her private Facebook group called divorced and Empowered. So, leah, welcome to the show.
[01:46] Leah Marie: Thank you. Thanks for having me.
[01:48] Dr. Alex: Yeah, I'm excited to it's weird to say I'm excited to have this conversation, but I think it's one that is needed for many of us. I know I have been through divorced, I'm in my second marriage, and fortunately that's all going well. But many of my clients and many of our listeners have either been through or are in that place of potentially looking at the experience of divorce. Maybe to start off, I usually start with just kind of asking your story and how you have arrived at doing what you do and then we'll flow from there.
[02:28] Leah Marie: Yeah, I'll go back a little ways. When I was 16, I actually witnessed my mom have an asthma attack in our home and pass away, and she was only 41 years old. And then only five years later, my dad died of pancreatic cancer. So by 21 years old, my parents were gone. I'm an only child, and I really kind of had to just figure everything out on my own. And what I didn't realize at the time was those traumatic losses caused really deep seated abandonment issues. And I had this really big fear of being alone. So I coped with that by basically becoming a serial monogamist. I just hopped from relationship to relationship like they were my buoys to keep me afloat. I just didn't know any other way. And I was afraid to be alone. I didn't know how to do that. So after my second divorce, that was my wake up call where I was like, okay, leah, obviously there's a pattern here. There's something going on. If you really want to find happiness, you're going to have to figure this out. So that's when I faced my fear of being alone, I had to learn how to stand on my own 2ft and I did all that work on myself that really I should have done years before. The therapy, meditation, journaling, gratitude, practice, I mean, all the things to find myself again, rebuild my self confidence and know my worth and be able to feel confident just being alone. And so that changed everything. So I essentially was able to take all of those tools and strategies and create a framework for other women so that they can after divorce, they can learn how to embrace their independence and rebuild their self confidence and know their worth without having to go through all of that trial and error, essentially, that I did.
[04:20] Dr. Alex: Awesome. It's really great to you know, it's such a hard thing, I think, to really look at our own side of the street and to recognize our role in relationships and in things. And similar to you, I've talked about on the show kind of going through my divorce and my ex husband. There was alcoholism involved, which was part of that, but there was also a whole lot that I had to confront and heal through and probably deal with on my own side of the street that led to me being in that type of relationship in the first place. And I know you talk a lot about guilt and shame and some of those emotions that can come up with it. And I definitely faced a lot of those, both when I was married and even after I decided to exit that marriage and move on. And it's like this interesting line of taking all the blame or thinking something's wrong with us or any of those things. And really there being an endpoint to a relationship and to a place where it's not healthy. So I don't know if you have any we're going to go deep on this one.
[05:40] Leah Marie: Especially when you're in that phase where you're really trying to just gain acceptance so that you can move forward. A huge part in that is reflecting and understanding the role that you played. And it's not necessarily playing the blame game or pointing fingers, but you did play a role. And so where were you responsible? How can you hold yourself accountable? Where were you mentally and emotionally when you started that relationship? Right? I mean, there's lots of reasons for divorce and so what role did you play? And when you can do that, it empowers you to make different choices in the future that will give you different results.
[06:16] Dr. Alex: Yeah, and that's so key and so huge. And for anyone listening, we just dove right into that. We're getting into the deeper work that any of us really need to do. Whether it's a marriage or a different relationship. It's not always just about the other person. And there's always another side of the street. And I think a lot of the ability to heal and to find harmony again and find love again, whatever that is, I'm also the product of they're not even blended. My parents are divorced. They got divorced when I was 22. And they're an example of people who have not necessarily negotiated that very gracefully or healed all that well. There's like this weird triangle with my dad's new partner and my mom share a hairdresser in a small town, and it's just 15 years later, they're still acting like they're in 7th grade. So we've got those things too. So I would love to hear from you. How do we really step into a place? Let's just have this conversation. How do we find our empowerment going through something that can be painful and difficult and honestly keep you stuck if you're really not?
[07:33] Leah Marie: Yeah, well, a powerful tool that I always recommend to clients because it's so easily accessible is journaling, because that really helps you process your thoughts and feelings. It's an outlet to get some of that stuff out. Also, you end up almost answering your own questions sometimes. Like, you find answers that you didn't even know you had in yourself. And it's a great way to track your progress because a lot of times I find with my clients, they forget how far they've come. They're like, oh, I feel like I should be further along. I don't know why it's taking so long. It's like, well, let's check back a month ago or four months ago. I would see where you were at when you were journaling.
[08:12] Dr. Alex: Right?
[08:13] Leah Marie: Because you don't realize that you actually do come a lot further than you think. So that's a really great tool, but don't be afraid to get support. I mean, that's the thing, is sometimes we're so caught up in our own habits and our own way of thinking that it's difficult to see ourselves objectively. And so when you have someone depending on what your needs are a therapist or a coach like me, that's their job, is to listen and help you kind of see what's going on. Or they'll see what's going on. More objectively and then kind of show you, okay, well, here's what I'm hearing or here's what I'm seeing. And give you suggestions to help make different choices that will essentially give you these different results or help you just create new healthier habits.
[09:00] Dr. Alex: Yeah, absolutely. And it starts with us, right? You just paraphrase the definition of insanity, but it's doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. And that could be jumping from relationship to relationship. Or it could be when we haven't really taken the time to get clear on who we really are and what we need and found some level of being okay on our own, I think is the big thing. And fortunately, I actually reached that point before I got remarried. And it's been a completely different experience. My husband happens to be sitting right in front of me recording that. It's completely different from that first time around when I was very much in that place of being. I was codependent. I mean, I needed to fix other people. And that was like, how I felt valued and felt important was in those roles.
[10:01] Leah Marie: Yeah, that's huge. Yeah. A lot of times I'll get the question, well, how do I know that I'm ready to date again? Right? And if I had that exact formula, I'd be a billionaire. Because everyone wants the answer to that question. So even though there's not an exact formula, a good rule of thumb is, you know, you're ready for a new relationship, a healthy relationship. When you get yourself to a place where you feel happy, whole and fulfilled all by yourself, it's okay to want a relationship. But when you feel like you need one, there's still some more work to do.
[10:35] Dr. Alex: Right.
[10:36] Leah Marie: A relationship shouldn't be filling any kind of void that you have. You need to be able to meet all of your own needs, and a relationship just adds value to your life. And when you get to that place, it's like the most powerful place you can get to because then you can date. You don't have attachments to any outcomes. If it works, great. If it doesn't, good. I'm good. I'm good on my own. I don't need it to work out. You can date with a lot higher standards. You'll have stronger deal breakers because you know who you are and what you want and what you need in a relationship. So it is it's a game changer, and that's the best place to be and to meet your ideal partner.
[11:12] Dr. Alex: Yes, absolutely. And I think that's really key, like knowing what you need in a relationship. This is something I talk about all the time on the show to ourselves, because a lot of women I'm talking about selfless syndrome, where we constantly just give and give and give it to ourselves. And if you've given to the point where nothing's left in a relationship has ended, the first place that we really need to figure out what we need is what we actually need for ourselves, and then you can look out to do you both need and want in a relationship with us?
[11:45] Leah Marie: Yeah. And some people who have trouble kind of pinpointing that, like, I don't know what I want, I don't know what I need. You can kind of start you could backtrack and what is that called? Like, reverse engineer it and think of, okay, well, what do I know? I don't want what happened in these past relationships that I know I don't want again or things I don't want to repeat. Right. And that's kind of an easier way to give you a better idea of what you will be looking for of the things that you do need in a relationship.
[12:17] Dr. Alex: Yeah, absolutely. So for those listening that maybe are somewhere, somewhere in the vast space of getting started on this, let's maybe focus on because this came up with a client of mine. She just gotten remarried and they'd been together a while, but things just fell apart almost immediately after they got remarried. And her biggest reason for not wanting to leave the relationship, she recognized that's what she needed to do, but what was holding her back was feeling ashamed and feeling guilt. And the stuff of being going through that yet again, like having the experience of getting divorced again. And so whether it's a relationship ending for the first time or second time or the fifth time, wherever you're at on that, I guess I'm curious for you. Where do you start with processing and moving beyond those emotions?
[13:15] Leah Marie: So I always recommend focusing on what you gained, what wisdom. Right? Because it's so easy to think, well, I'm a failure like this failed. I'm a failure. I believe that it's only a failure if you learned nothing. Right. If you just walked away with absolutely no more wisdom than you had when you first started. So when you can look for the wisdom, what did you gain? What do you know now that you didn't have before? What did you learn about yourself, about life, about relationships? That's a good way to kind of help take those things into the next chapter and feel a little bit better about it. Because we can get be so hard on ourselves. That inner critic and negative self talk is really what gets us feeling bad. I mean, that's where a lot of the shame comes too, is like self shame is telling ourselves that we failed or we weren't good enough, or we didn't do enough, or we didn't do a good enough job. So being also really mindful of those conversations you're having with yourself have a huge impact on how you feel.
[14:19] Dr. Alex: Yeah, that's really good. And I think that starts to shift the focus from all the things that went wrong or beating ourselves up or maybe beating the other person up mentally, hopefully not physically, but to really looking at what we can be responsible for as we talked about. But also there is something to be learned in each of our relationships. I was just on a mastermind with some colleagues before we got on this. And one of the things we were talking about is the role that some of those hard things and the hard choices and the hard experiences that we go through but the role that that actually has in our lives and a lot of time, it's designed to help shape us into who we really are meant to be. And we have to go through those things in order to get there. Like, without them. Would Helen keller have been who she was if she hadn't gone blind and had a mentor through all of that? Sometimes it's stepping back enough to recognize that.
[15:22] Leah Marie: Yeah, so true. It's just kind of seeing it like the bigger picture, right? Stepping back and looking at the bigger picture of things. And that's true. That's how you become wise and strong and resilient. It's not because everything just came really easily and you had no trials or tribulations.
[15:38] Dr. Alex: Yeah, absolutely. And this is another one that I know I struggled with when I went through my divorce, and that was being willing to admit I was lonely. And I'm curious. I know we can maybe talk about some of the struggles that you see from the moment, but I know this is a hard one for me. And I actually had a mentor kind of look at me directly and be like, are you lonely? And I was like, what? No, I'm fine. He's like, you're full of ****. Like, okay. Yes, I'm lonely. And I think we get attached to the negative of some of these things versus really just owning, like taking ownership of maybe you are lonely right now. Maybe you are going through whatever emotions you're going through. But if we can own it, it doesn't become something that's happening to us. It just becomes something that we have empowerment through, if that makes sense.
[16:36] Leah Marie: Yeah, because you have to first recognize it. And then again, this goes back to then meeting your own needs. If you're lonely, how could you meet your own needs without feeling like you are relying on that external source or that relationship to fill those needs? Because starting a new relationship based on that lack or that void of, well, I'm lonely, I need this to help me feel less lonely is going to get you into trouble. So meeting your own needs and so when you find yourself in situations like that, some great things to do are nurture relationships you already have, like friends, family, coworkers. How can you stay more connected with them? Getting new hobbies, trying new things, getting a creative outlet is wonderful because that passes the time. It gives you fulfillment, it builds your self confidence, and it helps you learn about yourself again. Right. You're like finding yourself, so it helps you figure out who you are. And that's the time, like when you're healing after a breakup or a divorce, that's the time to start exploring and experimenting and discovering and doing all the things. Like what kinds of things did you used to love but maybe you stopped doing because you didn't have time for? Or what kinds of things were you always interested in or kind of curious about, but you never really pursued that's the time start doing it all and then you can find yourself along the way, you find fulfillment. And those are great opportunities to connect with more like minded people.
[18:01] Dr. Alex: Absolutely. And this is speaking to even if you're not going through the end of a relationship or anything. I think just after COVID and coming out of isolation and the pandemic, so many of my clients I know had lost touch with that being connected to people. And even more so, those who maybe were single or don't have big families around them, they were like, I don't know what to do, I don't know where to go. All those are great ideas. So I just wanted to bring light to that. I guess we can kind of shift gears. Are there any mistakes that you see women make?
[18:44] Leah Marie: Yeah, I mean, the biggest mistake is dating too soon. And I get it. I mean, that was me. And that's how I wound up with a second divorce is because I hopped her right into another relationship. And there's lots of reasons why that might be tempting. Right. If you're lonely, if you're bored, if your self esteem is down the toilet, if you haven't had that kind of affection or attention from someone in a while, there's lots of reasons to do it. But those aren't great reasons. That's not going to help you find the right relationship. Right, but that's definitely the most common one and the biggest mistake I see because no one wants to go through another breakup when they're healing from a divorce.
[19:24] Dr. Alex: Right.
[19:24] Leah Marie: Because sometimes that can be even more painful. And so that's even more reason to just take a beat, give yourself some space to heal, find yourself again so that you know that you're in the ideal position to be able to find the right partner and make sure that you're not settling or choosing someone for the wrong reasons.
[19:47] Dr. Alex: Absolutely. I think all of that is and it can be so it's uncomfortable, I think, for a lot of us to choose to be alone. But really what we're talking about is to powerfully like when you can powerfully choose to be alone, that's when you're ready.
[20:05] Leah Marie: Yeah. And it also sometimes comes back to that self talk again. It's like if you're alone, well, what conversations are you having with yourself is well, I'm alone because nobody wants me, because I'm not good enough, because I'm getting too old. Right. Because I'm broken or damaged.
[20:19] Dr. Alex: Good.
[20:19] Leah Marie: I mean, we can have those conversations with ourselves and that's a reflection
Have you ever had that moment where you suddenly realize that a career, a relationship or a direction you're going in life isn't right? Maybe you've invested decades, time, energy, money and finally have the epiphany that you're not exactly on the right path.
Today, we're unpacking how to navigate this moment in a powerful way that allows for a leap, even when it's scary and you don't quite know what you're leaping into.
My own recent experience is creating a pivot in the lens and container in which I work with women from health into leadership, personal & professional growth and development. As I pivot, I would absolutely love to pick your brain on your biggest challenges as a female leader.
If you're willing, I'd love to have a Leadership Coffee Chat with you. Here's a link to connect :

Episode Transcript:
Dr. Alex: Welcome to the Selfless Syndrome Show, where we help women executives and entrepreneurs rise through Adversity, connect to their intuition, transform their hormones, and get their energy back. This is the show where we go beyond asking how do I treat my symptoms? And instead examine how do I truly heal, transform my hormones, and change my life? We are here to bring you outside the box ideas, interviews, and action steps focused in the areas of health, relationships, and our career, all three of which have a huge impact on our hormones. My name is Dr. Alex Swenson Ridley. I'm your host, mentor, speaker, author, entrepreneur, and thought leader on hormones and work life balance for high achieving women. I'm also a wife, mom, and stepmom to four boys and a verbal. And I'm a woman whose own life experience and journey from Adversity and the resulting hormonal chaos to finding hormonal harmony has led to me helping other women break with convention and find the tools they need to not just survive, but thrive. Ready to dive in? Let's go.
[01:05] Dr. Alex: Have you ever had that moment where you realize, oh *, I'm not doing the right thing or I'm not in the right relationship or whatever trajectory your life has been on is not the one that you really honestly are supposed to be on? If we haven't met, I'm Dr. Alex. Welcome back to The Show, a show that is probably going to change names here soon. But I wanted to unpack this moment where we feel the call to pivot because I've been through several of them in my life and just recently had a new one occur. And so I'm going to just kind of share what that journey has been like for me and invite you to look for or to tune into, especially if you've felt this call before and maybe have ignored it. Because pivots are scary and sometimes they are outside of what we have thought or identified ourselves at for our entire lives. And they can be something that we want to ignore because it's easier and stepping into the unknown is really uncomfortable. And I've had moments happen like this one in my marriage, one, my first marriage, one in I built actually a seven figure business and realized it wasn't what I wanted to be doing. And then I again in business just this last week had another moment where it was like, I'm not doing it's. It's not that I don't want to be an entrepreneur and don't want to be in business, but I definitely have not been doing the right thing. And in realizing that, I realized that's why business has been a struggle and I haven't really gotten things off the ground. And I've stopped doing a bunch of things that didn't feel authentically, like fitting what I me and what I wanted to be doing and creating. But I hadn't really taken the time to slow down and actually get to the root of what is my call and what am I here to do and what am I super passionate about? And it all came to a head in this last week. So to give you a little context, I work with two different mentors, and I'm in a group that's a mastermind of women where we are working on business, but also our relationship to money and some of our unconscious blocks around that. So I have that container that I'm in and then I'm also doing quite a bit of trauma work this year. It's something I decided it was time to take on given my own. I think all of us as women have layered I don't think I know all of us as women have layers of our own trauma and things that we've been through, whether it's in work or in our personal relationships or even intergenerationally. And so I've taken on a year long process of really going deep, peeling back those layers with a mentor and someone to guide me through that. And in the same 24 hours, I had conversations with both of those mentors where they both pointed to like, you're not doing the right thing. Dr. Alex the first was with a male, actually, who said he's like, yeah, I was explaining all these things I have planned and stuff that I've come up with for business and for the emergent women circle and all this stuff. And he's like, yeah, your heart's not really in that. And so in that moment, the first thing I really want to share is we have to and want to be surrounded by people who are willing to state what's really there and state what they see and get you to be authentic and honest and real with yourself, even when it's scary. And so what I've realized in those moments, I have spent the last two decades of my life in the health space as a chiropractor and then as a functional medicine practitioner and then as more of a coach and a hormone expert. It's always been within that container because that's where all my education is and that's where all my student loans are. And that's this journey that I took myself on. But I really challenged myself to look back and think about how did I make that decision to go on that road? And I had my own path of my health transfer made and really enjoyed and loved a lot of things about chiropractic and the chiropractic profession enough to take out $300,000 in student loans and go through school and do a bunch of science that was actually not up my alley. My BA is in comparative literature, but if I'm really truly honest with myself, what drove that was a lot of the status that comes with having doctor attached to your name and being in the health world and this desire or need to prove myself in some way. And it wasn't really actually fueled by a passion and love for health and health care and all of this. If anything, I am so burnt out on the entire health care system and all of that, especially after spending the last month with my mom and helping her navigate recovering from a broken pelvis. And she has all kinds of stuff going on, and I've just gotten back from doing that and I'm so fried with the whole thing. And it's like I know a lot and it's not always about what we know. I know tons. And I've given talks recently where I'm almost like, holy , despite the depth and amount of knowledge that I've accumulated in my chiropractic degree, in mostly completing a PhD in integrative medicine, in just studying hormones and doing coaching certifications and all this stuff. But it's like I've been driven by this need to prove something to someone. I don't even know who. Myself, I guess. It's not actually fueled by passion that I feel in myself. And I find it's really interesting because one of the things that a lot of the women that I've worked with over the years in the container of health, one of the biggest results that most of them I would say, like, 90% of the women that I've worked with have taken away from our time together is actually pivoting in their career, whether it's been starting a business or changing focus in the job or getting honest with themselves, that they're not doing the thing that they really want to be doing. And a lot of that it does really impact our health if we're not showing up and doing something that we love all the time. The thing that sets those who have been incredibly successful with not just getting their energy back and feeling like themselves again and a lot of things that we talk about on the show, those who have actually achieved that and those who have still struggled has actually been in this place of being willing to pivot. Whether it's the other place I've seen this a lot is in relationships and marriages and there's all these things that we have to go through in order to unpack and have the courage to be willing to do this. So I wanted to share just kind of what this most recent experience of this has been like for me, because it's one where I didn't hesitate. I think I've been hesitating for the last three years as I've been trying to launch this new business in an online space. And it's like I have pieces of all the things that I want, but it's been in the wrong container. I don't want to be in the healthcare world, I'll be honest. And while I still look at things very holistically and all of that, I've recognized that that's not actually where my passion lies. And honestly, it comes through in the show and it comes through in how I work with women and how I coach. But where my passion really is, is in leadership and personal and professional growth and development for women, high achieving women in particular, because I think we have unique challenges that we deal with. And I have always been really committed myself to pushing myself constantly to grow and to recognizing that I will only be as successful a business leader or a leader of my family, a leader of those who work with me as I'm willing to dig in and do the hard work and deal with the hard conversations and really allow myself to come to that precipice of actually letting go of everything I've known of myself to be my entire identity. So I made a decision when I had this realization where I had two mentors say like, yeah, I don't think you're really doing the right thing. And I had been feeling that way myself, to just step to the edge of that cliff that's like, okay, if I let go of all of the education of the $300,000, it's literally $300,000 student loan debt I've accumulated. In my years of studying and all of that and also all the certifications I've done and everything I've built to this point and just let it go. What would I actually be doing? And what am I really passionate about? And it took me a little bit to get there. Like, I had to really just sit in being uncomfortable because I just got back last night from when I'm recording this, and I had been in Vermont for a month, actually helping my mom and being back, I kept saying, like, I'm back home, but it's like I'm back home in the place I grew up, right? And being back in that environment and with those relationships with people who I've lived in Alaska for ten years, like 4000 miles away, so I haven't seen that much of them. They don't really know me anymore, right? They don't know who I am. And so being in that environment and also just dealing with the it was a lot of stress with my mom and everything she's going through. My point with this is it was not a time to be creative or to tap into deep inner knowing of who I am. So I just allowed myself to sit in the uncomfortableness of it all and both my mom and being like, holy ***, I don't really want to be doing what I'm doing. And I also don't know what the next thing is or what that means or what I'm supposed to be doing. And so just sitting in that and I honestly ate a lot of dairy free ice cream. That's a side note. So that's the first step is we have to be willing to come to the edge of that and just let go, let it all go. Whether you've identified been in the same career or marriage, honestly, I think these things go hand in hand for two years, five years, decades, you have to be willing to just allow yourself to look out at if I let go, what's possible. And so it wasn't until I was on the plane yesterday that I ended up having time to just sit and reconnect with myself. And it's funny because as soon as I was removed from all the stress of being home, it was like, woo, floodgates are here and here we go. And so I allowed myself to just journal and not look for any other input or anything else. And what I got really clear on is my passion and zone of genius has really always been around leadership and personal growth and development. Like, I get so fired up about that. I did tons of it in my 20s when I was in school, I helped lead and organize retreats and things for other students that was all geared around this. I was given the Leadership and Entrepreneurship award by my graduating class who actually didn't know me that well, I thought. But apparently they knew me better than I knew myself. So allowing myself to just step into that, okay, if I let go of the health container and pivot into this place of leadership, which honestly still includes some health, but that's not the big thing, right? So I'm super excited about this. You can probably tell by just hearing me and that's been the thing that's been missing is me actually being honestly excited and fired up about the things that I'm doing. And those of you that listen to this who are currently working with me or have worked with me in the past, it's not that I don't love you or that I don't appreciate the journeys that we've been on together or that I'm not going to be here for you until we complete in whatever way that feels good for both of us. It's just I have realized that how I come about doing what I do hasn't really made sense within the health container. Because most of my passion and even the things I've been sharing on the podcast over the years are more geared at this personal growth and development and how we lead ourselves and our teams. Most of the women that I work with as high achievers, we are in leadership roles. I have been in leadership roles that I'm going to start sharing some more of the stories that the things I learned in the process of building a seven figure business with most women in the world don't do. I think it's 1% or 2% of women business owners actually achieve that level. And there's a level of pushing ourselves and allowing ourselves to be in the discomfort and be vulnerable. It's a lot of vulnerability and willingness to confront the things about us that I don't want to say need to change, but that evolve. We are always evolving. I believe that our time here on Earth and our journey, whatever you believe in comes after. This is if we're not growing and pushing ourselves and changing and discovering new layers and peeling back the things. I believe all these things are what bring us closer to God, to source, to whatever word works for you, and that is the role of life, right? And so these experiences and journeys that we go on, some of them are really freaking hard. I've been through some really freaking hard stuff. My parents have been reading the book that I wrote and released in January, and it was interesting to be there while they're both reading it. But my mom just said it at one point. She's like, has your life really been this hard? I haven't been one to really share a lot with them just because it hasn't been a safe space to do so, but I'm starting to, and I put it out there for the world, and it's been my journey. We all have our journey, and have parts of it been really hard. Yeah, it has. But who you get to be on the other side of the hard stuff is what makes it all worth it, right? This is what life is about in my world. So all this to say what I want you to want to leave you with. I've known women who come to this point and run terrified, and then only to have it come back a decade later when they realized, like, shoot, I should have probably listened and pivoted or done that thing, or those who have had the courage to just say, okay, I'm doing this. And there's a couple of pieces of clarity that have helped me get here. And this is one of the things that I'm really passionate about helping other women with. A couple of weeks ago, I recorded an episode that's actually one of the most listened to this year so far, but about my working zone of genius and getting really clear on that. And I've talked about zone of genius some on the show, though not as much as I probably should, because I'm really Passionate About it. So I'm in this place where I got really clear on what my working zone of genius was, and there's a book and an assessment and a podcast, and I'll put links to all that in the show notes. But you can literally look up working genius, and you'll find all of the stuff. But it was the first thing that really helped me understand zone of genius, and it was something that had helped me realize that I've done most of my career in not my zone of genius. I've never had permission to be there. And so I'm coming into this place of a new pivot. Having granted myself permission to be in my zone of genius, which a lot of that for me. In the working zone of genius model, I have a lot of discernment and a lot of I'm very creative and inventive. And so discernment is where I'm really quite good at coming in and helping people see a new perspective or shift, take the blinders off and just get really clear or sometimes get confronted as I do, by just peeling back those layers and not, you know, we get ourselves stuck in a box. It's like I've had myself in this box of healthcare for two decades and it's not that I wasn't good at it. It's not actually my zone of genius passion wise, right? And so allowing myself to really live in this place of creativity and helping support women more in this kind of world, of helping you get clarity and figure out what's next and what's holding you back and all of that stuff is what I'm really truly passionate about. And then how you create and lead from a place where you're in touch with that zone of genius and that path forward. So that is what I'm stepping into. I'm super excited about it. And as I Pivot, I also would be honored and would love to just engage with those of you who listen to the show and consider yourself leaders. That's a whole other conversation but are in a leadership role to actually have a short leadership coffee chat with me. I just want to know what are some of the struggles that you have as a female leader? Because I think my experience has been in the entrepreneurial world and in the healthcare model world and there's a lot of crossover, I believe. But I also just want to get an idea for women in leadership roles. Whether you're a professor or you are in corporate and leading huge teams, I've got clients in all those realms. What are your biggest challenges? What gets in the way? Where do you feel either stuck or like you don't have permission to be yourself within that leadership role? And I want to help you transform a lot of that. So there's a link in the show notes to a calendar to just jump on a call with me. Like, I'm not selling you anything. I just want to connect with you and can I get to know more from this side of this lens and this perspective of leadership and personal growth and development? Like, where are you feeling the most stuck and like you're being held back or what? I have found with so many women, myself included, it's like we don't have permission to actually be ourselves within leadership roles because we're trying to do it in a way that is very male dominated and male driven and a lot of it doesn't mesh. So my whole thing that I'm pivoting into, this is why we're sharing. This is how do we actually lead from our zone of genius and how do we bring in this realm of being completely fulfilled and not burnt out by our roles and stepping into that and created in a way that really feeds and fires us up. There's a link to jump on that call...
Do you feel frustrated by the lack of options available for your health, and constantly feeling like it's too hard to both get help and feel good again?
Today I'm joined by former nurse turned Human Design and trauma informed health and business coach Amy Arner for a deep dive into things we don't usually talk about in healthcare. Spirituality and it's role in healing. How it's all connected. How burnout comes about. And the questions and starting point for listeners to start healing deeply by looking outside the box.

[00:01] Dr. Alex: Today's conversation is one of those that transpires when you find two kindred spirits who have similar but different journeys and have learned a lot of stuff along the way. Today I am joined by Amy Arner, who is otherwise known as the Boss Mama. She's a seasoned registered nurse, wife and boy mom who became a certified trauma, informed life and business coach, hypnotherapist and human design guru in order to help other multipassionate women break free from the generational patterns, beliefs, and habits, robbing them of peace, confidence, and success they crave in their relationships, careers, and motherhood. And I have to say, our conversation is one that I hope serves and inspires you on many levels. We get into things that we don't normally talk about in the healing space, including spirituality and inner work, and how you really start to make that shift away from looking outside yourself to first looking within yourself, which, if you've been listening to the show for long enough, you know, I argue is key to us really, truly healing. So I hope you enjoy and let's dive in.
[01:16] Dr. Alex: Welcome to the Selfless Syndrome Show, where we help women executives and entrepreneurs rise through Adversity, connect to their intuition, transform their hormones, and get their energy back.

Ready to dive in? Let's go.
[02:18] Dr. Alex: Hello.
[02:19] Amy Arner: Welcome back to the show. Amy.
[02:21] Dr. Alex: I'm so glad you're here.
[02:23] Amy Arner: Thank you. I am so excited. Cannot wait to just dive into this with you. It's going to be fun.
[02:29] Dr. Alex: Yeah, absolutely. So I think I want to start with you have a journey that I've talked about a bit on the show, which is the transition from Western medicine world into not Western medicine world and healing and some of these more what I call integrative modalities and stuff. So I'm curious just to hear what that journey has looked like for you and how you've ended up doing what it is that you do today, if you're open to sharing that.
[02:58] Amy Arner: Oh, yeah, absolutely. So the Cliff Notes of that cliff Note version of that is, I think, just grew up in a world where we just trusted traditional medicine. I think I was from a young age, my mom worked in a hospital, and I remember going to the hospital and just being around that culture and feeling like that was safe. That was what I knew. And we went to the doctor, we did all the vaccinations, all that kind of thing. So I kind of grew up, I think, having Western medicine or my idea of Western medicine kind of on a pedestal. I didn't question it. I didn't think anything different of it until I always have felt this pull. I've always known that whatever I'm here to do on this earth, it's meant to help people in some way. I've always felt very intuitively guided in that, but also was very much what can I do with a career that is going to maybe help me meet both of those needs of me to pay my bills and provide for myself while also being of service. I started out kind of just diving right into whatever I could do with medicine. And I actually began in a PA program, physician assistant program, and not really knowing anything different or not knowing really that that's what I wanted to do, but just that that's what was there. And I I really feel like that's important to share because I feel like it's just like blinded faith. Like I didn't I never it's just that that ignorance of like, we don't really question what's there. We don't really question what we know because it's what we know. And that was very much how I went into the field of medicine. That's very much how I went into my career. So I started out in PA program, and I actually got kicked out my first year because I didn't meet the grade requirements. I got a D in bio and chem my first quarter. They went by a quarter system, which is I've never heard of that any other at many colleges, but I know most colleges traditionally go by semesters. Well, they went by a quarter system, so I had to pivot, and I ended up pivoting. And again, next in line, well, if I can't be a PA, well, what can I be? And so I applied to nursing school, got in, and again, I feel like I had a very misconstrued perception of what medicine was because in nursing school, we were taught the holistic approach. We were taught to treat people by looking at their whole self. And I was in love with that. That spoke very much to what I believe and wanted and what I was actually feeling called to do. I felt like that was taking care of the mind, body and the spirit, taking care of the whole. But that's just not what medicine is. That's not what traditional medicine actually is. It's very much corporate. It's very much fast paced and supply demand. You have a problem, we fix the problem, but it's not really looking anything deeper than the surface level. Very early on in my nursing career, pretty much immediately, I felt that, like, whoa, what am I in here? What did I get myself into? I felt very misaligned from the very beginning and kind of like I was just, like, wearing a costume costume, doing what I had to do. But then I would go home, and I was feeling very much of how I feel like my patients feel. I'm sure your patients feel just like they're kind of running down the treadmill and they never get off, and not really understanding even how that was taking a toll on my own self and my own health and my own energy. But the longer and longer I've been a nurse for ten years now, and it was just like, I think I did what most people do, is we just kind of keep looking for a fix. So I would just change. I change jobs, like, every two years, thinking, oh, maybe it's just not the right place, it's just not the right culture, it's just not the right hospital. And nothing really ever seemed to change. And that's where I more and more just kind of it was like this slow awakening that took many years. But just like I had to be the I was the guinea pig. I was the one that had to go first and experience it myself. And it really did hit home for me just how it didn't really become clear to me that this was my path until I actually became a mom. Because leading up to that point, I was again still very much focused on the surface level type of what I thought health was, which was exercise diet, which of course, diet is very important, exercise movement is very important. But I really was not connecting the dots of understanding the deeper level, the source of where it didn't connect yet, that you can do all you want on the outside, but it's never going to change what's happening on the inside until you switch that approach and you start working from that inside out. So after I became a mom, that's when I really started to kind of crumble, because now it wasn't just me. I was responsible for these others. I was responsible for this other human. And it was just like that overpour from my cup. That really is what made it unavoidable. I could no longer not see that. I just couldn't keep going the way that I was going, that something was wrong, like something was off. What I was doing wasn't working, and it was actually my the way it manifested was, of course, I I really I was really struggling with anxiety, something that I had felt like I had kind of gotten a handle on. I've struggled with it most of my life. I now understand much more clearly why I struggled or why I struggle with anxiety, but that to say it really took a deep dive. I do know and believe I did also experience postpartum. So it was like this huge mess of multiple factors. But one of the physical things that manifested from all that was extreme lower back pain. And I just wasn't able to function. I was getting through my day, but it was a struggle, it was really painful and it was to the point where I did, you know, I I was just like, I need somebody. I need help. And so I ended up finding getting into my local chiropractor office and it was probably a couple of months after going to him that again, he'd adjust me, I'd leave. Literally by the time I got home, the back pain would be back. I'd have that short of relief. And I was just going like, almost weekly. And he finally said to me one day that he didn't think that he's like, I really believe I can adjust you all I want, but you're going to keep having the back pain because this is an emotional issue. This is an emotionally sourced physical ailment. And that was like the lightning bulb moment for me of, oh my God, I've been doing it all wrong. I've been looking at this not that I'm doing it all wrong, but that I've been approaching this in a completely backwards way. And even at that time I went back to so my specialty, my background with nursing is mostly critical care. So mostly like ICU setting. And so we're dealing with the sickest of the sick, the ultimate presentation of compound effect, typically of illness. And it became just, again, so much more apparent. It was like I just broke open and I finally realized, like, the problem here, you know, we can have nurses pump out nurses all we want, but if we don't, we can't slow down. Or if we can't shift the cultural perception of health, then this overflow of patients, this overcrowding of hospitals, this vicious, awful cycle that we find in is never going to stop. And that was when my calling really shifted and I realized that I was really always being pulled more to preventative health and really waking people up to these Eastern medicine practices, these holistic practices, for them to really take back control of their health and livelihood. So that's not a Cliff Note version.
[13:15] Dr. Alex: But no, it was really good. I think our listeners are interested in this too, because we can pull parts of your stories from many directions. And I have my background as a chiropractor where I totally burned out. But I think we all hit those moments where something happens where we're no longer able to tolerate whatever we've been dealing with, right? Like, I had a similar situation with my son being born. He was actually born five weeks early. And the whole reason was because I was in a toxic work environment, like highly toxic. The guy went to jail for 25 years. Kind of toxic. But it was like I was tolerating that until he came into the world, and then I was like, oh, heck no. I can't do this anymore. And for our listeners, you really want to examine and look at in those moments, because we've all had them. It could be a birth of child. It could be an illness, could be the death of somebody. How are you choosing to navigate that? Are you actually making the choice to exit and to pivot or to wake up and do something differently? Or are you burying your head in the sand to keep going the way you've been going?
[14:26] Amy Arner: Yeah, and I really do think it's kind of like why I mentioned what I mentioned in the beginning was that I hate the word ignorance because it makes it it sound like makes it sound like you're ignorant, like you're a bad person, but it's not like rose colored glasses. You don't want to challenge the status quo. I get that. I get not really feeling like you have the energy to challenge what you know because you just feel like you already have so much on your plate. But it really is about, for me at least, it really came down to, like, no, I love myself. I love myself too much to be this version of myself that I can't stand. I think that's that deeper knowing or it's that intuitive knowing that voice within you. It's like, this isn't me. This isn't who I'm here to be. It doesn't have to be this way. I think that's kind of like, always, like, it shouldn't be this way. It shouldn't feel this hard. I shouldn't feel this way. At the time, I was 31, 32 years old, and it was just like, gosh, this just can't be it.
[15:53] Dr. Alex: Yeah. And it's a hard realization to have. Right. I went through the same thing around the same age. I think I was 32, 33, when my whole world blew up. And to your point about the rose colored glasses, there's a saying that I learned early in my 20s when I first started doing kind of like personal development work, but it's like, we know what we know, and we know what we don't know. But that's only a very small piece of the pie. There's this whole world that we don't even know that we don't know, and so it's being willing to step into that. And I think one of the things I was just thinking about, because I know a lot of my listeners tend to have similar backgrounds for me, but I came to Christianity kind of late in life, and then as I was starting to learn a lot of Eastern approaches in my integrative medicine program, it really challenged my worldview and belief system. And what I found really interesting is that in the Western world and Western medicine and Westernized Christianity, we have completely divorced the spiritual from healing, from our overall health and well being. And it's such an integral part, and I think it's why our health looks the way it does and we have overcrowding in hospitals because there's just no space or permission for those conversations. And it doesn't mean you're opening yourself up to Eastern gods or views or any of that. It's like I feel so much more connected to God the way I understand God and the Christian model since I started doing this kind of work on healing, meaning more of the internal. There's a lot that we can do on our own that's not a pill or a diet or medication, not like those things don't matter. But it's not the whole picture.
[17:30] Amy Arner: It's so powerful that you brought that up because yeah, my same here. My whole life, I've never really had a traditional religion, traditional religious relationship. My mom always wanted me to she took me to church. We tried a couple of different churches growing up, and I was the only one in my family willing to go with her. But it's because, again, I think in my soul I've always felt pulled or I've always felt open and that there is something more, there is this other aspect of ourselves and we have that connection. And I always remained open to it. And it was actually, I think, one of the many reasons why I was led to nursing and why all that happened for me. Because when I went to a Methodist college, I went to a Methodist college and I was able to learn about religion from that standpoint. New Testament, old Testament, all that stuff. I was finally able to start building that relationship that I never really had an opportunity to. And again, I think it's one of the many reasons why I look back. I just loved my nursing school experience because I feel like I was having all aspects of myself, like finally coming online a little bit. I was able to express this part of me that does know that there is more, that there is so much more out there, and we are connected when there is a higher power. But I do believe that it comes down to you intuitively, trusting yourself more than you trust anything else with that. I feel like you will open yourself up to creating a relationship, whatever that is for you. Source, God, universe, whatever you want to call it. It's this connection that there is this other part of me that if I'm not in alignment with that as well as everything else, there's always going to be that kink, there's always going to be something off, there's always going to be that resistance within you. Because that's where I feel like that's where we are susceptible to falling into fear and falling into conditioning. Propaganda.
[20:14] Dr. Alex: Well, I think it's where we fall into chasing diets and chasing the next thing that the media is pushing at us. And this is something I've talked about in my programs, and now I'm starting to speak more and kind of do more workshops and stuff. But it's like, where does your truth come from? And really getting grounded in that. And for a lot of us, it's coming from something out here in the world that we can see tangibly. But that's also how do we know to trust that? Is that reality? And the only one who really, truly in my world, this is what works for me. God is who says who I am. And honestly, a lot of us believe a lot of lies about ourselves. That vision of us is much more powerful than we tend to give ourselves credit for.
[21:00] Amy Arner: And I feel like we are in such a powerful time. I mean, we really are in a shift of moving out of this material world paradigm into more of an end. Like, that's literally what's happening. You know, I did, I did, I do. We do am I even have I always been consciously aware of, like, how that's actually happening? No. But I do get that now that it's really like a calling in my eyes. Everything that's happening in our world, in our hospitals, everything I think is pulling us to go inward and pulling us to really pause and evaluate and dig in and really come back to the source, come back to ourselves and understand that we all play a part. Our individual selves affects everything on a larger, grander scale and that the more we can take back that power for ourselves, take back control of our own life, take back control of our health, take control of our mindset, everything we can make a difference. I'm always talking about that with my own clients. I work a lot with moms. I work a lot with mothers. And because what's the word? Nuclear family. Your impact on your nuclear family is so much bigger...
How strong is your support network of close friends that you can be open and real with? Personally, this is an area I've struggled with a lot as a career driven woman. Community is also something that plays a huge role in our over all health and hormone balance.
This episode unpacks why community is so important to our hormones and gives you some things to think about to strengthen your own community. I also share some new things I'm working on and am really excited about because they focus on community at the core of our healing journey.

Episode Transcript:
[00:00] So I don't know about you, but I have struggled through my adult life to maintain close friendships and relationships and community among other women.
[00:11] And I've been thinking about this a.
[00:13] Lot lately because this is also a significant part of having balance and having our hormones work. And we're going to unpack what that means today. But I also think that for those of us who identify as high achievers, we're driven and we're always after the next thing. That's a lot of what being a high achiever is about. It can be hard to prioritize friendship because we're already stretched so thin in our careers and in our personal and family lives. And so it's something that gets missed.
[00:52] Welcome to The Selfless Syndrome Show, where we help women executives and entrepreneurs rise through Adversity, connect to their intuition, transform their hormones, and get their energy back. This is the show where we go beyond asking how do I treat my symptoms? And instead examine how do I truly heal, transform my hormones, and change my life? We are here to bring you outside the box ideas, interviews, and action steps focused in the areas of health, relationships, and our career, all three of which have a huge impact on our hormones. My name is Dr. Alex Swenson Ridley. I'm your host, mentor, speaker, author, entrepreneur, and thought leader on hormones and work life balance for high achieving women. I'm also a wife's, mom, and stepmom to four boys and a furball. And I'm a woman whose own life experience and journey from Adversity and the resulting hormonal chaos to finding hormonal harmony has led to me helping other women break with convention and find the tools they need to not just survive, but thrive. Ready to dive in? Let's go.
[01:53] What I started to see and really have recognized, especially when I was writing my book on Selfless Syndrome that came out in January, is that we're missing this really important component that we were designed to be in relationship with others and in community. And I'm not talking about the pandemic or pre or being introverted or extroverted or that has nothing to do with any of this. There is something that we gain from being in relationship with others, particularly peers and those who we can relate to in a peer way. Women who get us and understand us, that actually helps us to de escalate from stress. We as women, go through something called tend and befriend. And the way I think about this is I'm going to tell you to share a little story here that I actually shared in my book. But I grew up in Vermont, which is actually where I'm recording this because I'm here helping my mom recover from a pelvic. Broken pelvis. But when I was a kid, we would go out and go hiking all the time. And there was a stay where we were driving to what was my favorite.
[02:57] Mountain because we drove up most of it and then only had a short.
[03:00] Hike at the top.
[03:02] But on the way up, she suddenly pulled over and she was like, we're.
[03:04] Here to my brother and I.
[03:06] And we were both, we were probably under ten at the time.
[03:09] And she gets out of the car and I realized that there are two.
[03:12] Or three bear cubs in the trees. And I'm watching her walk up and.
[03:17] My brother and I are freaking out.
[03:19] I have running through my head like, can I figure out how to drive the car if things go really bad.
[03:23] And we need to go get help?
[03:25] And I watch my mom and she's going to check it out to make sure the cubs are okay. But I'm like, Mama Bear's got to be there. And she was. And so all of a sudden we see my mom freeze and hear this huge roar.
[03:38] And I watch my mom kind of start to back away and I'm like.
[03:43] Oh my gosh, I'm about to watch.
[03:45] My own mother get mauled by a bear.
[03:47] But what happened and how this relates to what we're talking about here is that Mama Bear, before she just went on the attack mode and offensive, she did what, she stopped to make sure that her baby cubs were okay and then she addressed the threat, which was my mom.
[04:06] And by that time, my mom had.
[04:07] Made it back to the car and or was far enough away that Mama Bear didn't charge her. And my mom got back in the car and we watched as they all ran across the road and went on their merry way. And that thing that's in neatly wired in all mammals and humans were part of that is as females and as women. And we do this a little differently than men. This is something that is specific to us when we're under stress, when there is a threat, we need to make sure our people are okay and then we need to de escalate. And so where an animal in the wild will shake it off, that's literally a thing. If you've ever watched like my dog, whenever he wakes up in the morning, he shakes his whole body to just kind of reacclimate his nervous system. Animals do that. Humans, we tend to sit down and talk about it. And if it's to our husbands, they look at us and say, I don't know what to say. And we say, we just want you to listen. But it's part of the cycle of how we de escalate from stress. And for those of us who are high achieving women and struggling with what I call selfless syndrome, what selfless syndrome is, is our wiring has gotten hung up in the modern day world. So we are constantly tending to everyone and everything around us. It's all about our focus is on everyone and everything else. And that's an innate response and something that's naturally wired into us. However, we are missing the opportunity to befriend and a big part of that. And that's what leads us down what I call the selfless syndrome cascade and to overwhelm and exhaustion and eventually resignation that nothing is going to change. And a huge, huge missing piece is community. And so I've really been thinking about this because in my own experience, when I moved to Alaska and finished graduate school and chiropractic school was like, I've thrown into the real world where the rest of us all live. But when you go from a place where you have some commonality, some common thread that holds you together and you have that kind of community established for you, it can be hard to reestablish it on our own. And like I said, it can be really hard to prioritize those relationships and that piece of the pie. And so I've been dwelling on and focusing on a couple of things while I've been traveling and I'm going through some shifts in how I do things in business in general. And some of the questions that I've been asking on social media and through email have been things like how do you learn best and what kind of support do you need? And I find so many women that end up working with me in a coaching relationship, it's because they need accountability. And then I launched a group part of that process and it's like everyone really enjoys and gets a lot out of being in relationship with others and getting input and feedback from others and they need that connection is like an added layer of just healing and knowing they're not alone and all of these great things. And then the final piece that I just happened to ask about thinking about it is how we learn best. And for a lot of us, especially when we're driven. I'm one of those weird people like online courses. I think it's only like 10% of the world actually finishes all the material in an online course. I finish like three over the weekend because I'm learning some new stuff. So I'm an anomaly to this, I know, but for the most part, and I've seen this in my program, which I've combined, I've always combined one to one coaching and an online portal and course where there is an obscene amount of information and most people don't finish it, let's just be honest. And even in not finishing it, they still experience great and amazing results. But I've been looking at like, how do women learn best? And I got from most people it was a combination of being able to do stuff on their own and having like a live component where they get to show up and have some accountability and what all of this has led to. We have community and we have the importance for it, allowing us to de escalate our stress. I did not tie this to our hormones yet. So let's do that really quick. Stress and cortisol, the hormone that comes from stress that's produced by your genitals, messes with all of our hormones. It messes with our digestive system, our thyroid, our sex hormones, our sex drive, all our sleep, all of it is affected by cortisol. And when we live in a world where we're never de escalating enough, we need certain levels through the day. But when we're never de escalating enough and the rise and fall of cortisol isn't happening like it's supposed to, our body gets out of whack and our hormones start to suffer, not just from going through menopause, but even before that. And we have all of these symptoms and our mood is off. We have anxiety. We are snapping at our family and our kids are yelling at coworkers. And all of a sudden we don't recognize who we really are in the mirror anymore. We feel like we've lost ourselves and we have no energy and we're just kind of like existing but not thriving and not loving our experience of life. And I'm really naming as root cause of this a lack of connection and community and that opportunity to be able to de escalate and just befriend and have people in your corner and people.
[09:35] That you're connected with.
[09:37] And so there's two things I want to share with you. One is just a stress for you, the importance of engaging and finding your people wherever you are and for some that might be online. I know I have struggled with where I live. Not that there's not amazing people up there, just with making the time. And especially in business, it's been hard to connect with other women who are doing business the way I do and all of that. And so in those ways, I've had to branch out into the online world just to have that piece. But for those of you listening, I want to challenge you to really think about and examine where are your people, how connected and tuned in are you to that? Do you have support system and someone you can call or meet up for a walk or have a cup of tea? I won't say drink a glass of wine because that's something that will also affect if your hormones are off, you want to be avoiding that as much as possible. But are you creating and do you have the opportunity to befriend? And if not, I'm challenging you to. And this goes for myself too, because I'm really great at hiding in my house these days since I started working all online. Like, what things can you do to get yourself out there? And I've worked with clients on this. We've made lists of different meetups they could do or classes they could take or you want to engage in activities and in things, even if you don't know anybody there that shares an interest. And from there you can start to develop and strengthen some of those relationships. And I would say it's been really eye opening and challenging for a lot of people. Just going through the pandemic and now coming out of it, of the isolation, like a lot of people really didn't do well in isolation. And it shows in our health and in our mental health and in our physical health, and all these things are tied together. So that's, number one, I encourage you to do that. Number two is I have taken all of these deep thoughts and things I'm pondering and transitioning through and really looking at what impact I want to have in the world with this podcast and with what I help women work through. I'm not the hero of anyone's journey. It's providing a framework for you to go through and find success and find ultimately transformation. And the big things I always hear from women are like, I have so much energy, I don't know what to do with myself. Dr. Alex who doesn't want that problem? Or finally losing weight when it hasn't been coming off for years and years and nothing you've tried has worked or really getting connected to your passion and purpose and having really solid relationships with your spouse and your kids, having your kids know you as nice mommy or your coworkers, get to know the real you. It's about this transformation into becoming who you really are in the world and allowing that to come through and not having it be buried in stress and in constant go go and in really losing ourselves to the fast pace of the modern world. And to me, that is what Emergent Woman is. That's actually the name of my business and I might change the name of this podcast to signify that, but Emergent Women are women who are in the process of becoming in the process of transformation. And so I've been looking at how do we create something that fosters that kind of culture and brings in the missing piece of connection? Because I feel like when I've brought that into what I've been doing more, the healing has been deeper, the ability, the changes have been longer lasting, the quality of the conversation and just the depth that we're able to go to has been something new. And I also want it to be available much more widely than it has been because I've always been kind of in this world of more high ticket coaching and there's nothing wrong with that. However, and I'm super creative and want to bring more things, I want to bring more people and all of this. So all this to say what I've come up with, and this is the first time I'm sharing this and this is going to be something that will be completely live and launched at the end of the month and we're going to go all in on March 31. Everything will be up and running and we'll be ready to go. But I've created what I'm calling the emergent Women Circle. And this is a place that is community driven and connection driven first. And in it, you get to not only connect with all the other women who are on this journey, becoming the emergent woman, going through the journey of becoming who you really are, your truest self, the best you with the body and the confidence and the hormones and all of the things to support the real essence of who you are. And inside of that there's so many amazing things. I don't want to go on about the features, but essentially I'm creating this place where all of that lives, along with all of the courses and material and everything I'm going to create in the future, which I am going to be creating something related specifically to the journey of Menopause this year that will come to that community first. And so that is a place where you can come and be safe and be felt and be held and be friend and have that connection and that space and even have the ability to meet up with people who are in your area. There's ways and the platform that I'm using to do all of that. So the Emergent Women's Circle is combining community with guidance through the journey that I've been using with women for the past five or six years and has helped them achieve the results that we talked about earlier of having. So much energy they don't know what to do with. And their bodies being something that they're confident and feel great in again and better relationships and really being connected to their passion and purpose. And so you have that framework and that access, plus live support for me in the form of events, special events that we're going to create, special experiences we're going to go on together. We're going to do like an energy spa every week. Or you come to these things as much as you want to, but there will be opportunities to interact with and get questions answered, like Q and A stuff, just coaching support, Ttax, T meet ups and workshops and all kinds of just incredibly fun stuff. But I'm so excited about creating and building in a culture with you. So if you're excited about this idea, like go to wherever you're listening to this from, just know it's in the show notes. And I made this simple so you can go there, but go to Emergentwomencircle.com. And there's not like a big sales page or anything yet, it's just you're just giving me your name and telling me you're interested in knowing about it when it launches. So there's a little one page deal that will share slightly more than I just did and you can type in your name and your email and I will keep you posted as it comes together and as it forms. And I'm really excited and I know one of the main questions I'm going to get is, okay, Dr. Alex sounds amazing. How much does all this cost? So what we're doing is because I want the reach to be large and wide, is, you know, this is nominal. It's not even what you would spend on coffee in a month. I think we spend about $150 on coffee every month if you're a normal coffee drinker and going to the stores. And so this is for the first 100 women that come in as founders of this whole thing. It's $59 a month. You stay as long as you want to stay. You get what you want to get out of it. And my goal is that really we get to create a community and even pockets of community that really help just support and serve each other as we all go through this transformational process to emerge into who we really were born to be who we are, where we're going and creating the internal environment within ourselves to really support that and have it be reality. So again, check out Emergentwomencircle.com and I'm really excited about launching this thing. So you will be hearing some more about it in the coming weeks. But I just wanted to give a preview of what's coming up and really stress whether you join my community it's not mine, it's our community. Whether you join the Emergent Women Circle community or really work on fostering community around you in the way that you feel most supported and like, you need know that this is a huge component of healing of your hormones working the way they're supposed to, and of you really feeling well again. And it's as important as it is to stress time for ourselves and what we need, this is also one of those things that we really, truly need that we haven't talked about a lot. So I hope this serves you and we will see you next week.

Is pain driving your desire for lifestyle change? Most of us only change something when there is pain associated with what we have been doing. But according to my podcast guest today, if this is your only driver, no changes you make will be sustainable. You’re also missing some essential keys that will make the difference in your success. I’m joined by the founder of the internationally known MetaProject Olly Wood, who is a former personal trainer who became fascinated by what drives behavioral change.
On this episode we cover the components that drive behavior change that go far beyond nutrition and exercise and get into the specifics of weight loss, hormones, body betrayal, intermittent fasting and so much more for high achieving women.
Oliver got his start in the trenches of the health world as a PT in a big box gym. After 7 years of working with primarily high-performing business owners he saw the extent to which stress, inflammation, and a lack of focus on recovery was ruining any progress they were making, and, worse still, was leaving them burnt out and unproductive mentally as well. Rather than simply encouraging high-performers to do more and work harder, Olly has worked with world-leading experts in exercise, nutrition, biochemistry, and coaching, such as Brian Walsh, The Poliquin Group, Kassem Hanson, Ben Pukulski, Linh Trinh, and Cliff Harvey, among others, to develop a more holistic, scientific, and sustainable approach to health and performance.
If you’re in that place of deep introspection after this episode, I’d also like to invite you to connect with me for our weekly newsletter on LinkedIn or through email. I did deeper into topics like this in the written form every Wednesday.

Are you taking an omega 3 supplement regularly? And if so, are you sure of the quality? Or the impact that the production of that omega 3 supplement has on our oceans, fish and environment?
Omega 3’s are one of those essential nutrients that we can’t make in our body, but are incredibly important to many functions in our body. Today I’m joined by Omega 3 expert Corinna Bellizzi from Orlo Nutrition, a company that stands for not just getting omega 3’s into our system, but also for doing it in a way that is sustainable and leaves the smallest carbon footprint possible.
I honestly learned a lot recording this episode and am excited to share it with you. Especially as I’ve been watching my husband’s organization fight to put fishing limits on the coastal regions of Alaska in an effort to increase salmon populations again for the entire ecosystem of oceans, rivers and tribal subsistence fishing.
Ready to dive in to not just something we need to be healthy ourselves, but also a really great discussion on how to get it in a way that is sustainable and helps our oceans be healthy too?
That's what this conversation is all about!
Corinna Bellizzi is a sustainability and omega-3 expert who successfully pioneered the fish oil giant, Nordic Naturals, and a cutting edge algae-based omega-3 brand, Örlö Nutrition, that features the world’s first carbon-negative omega-3s.
Corinna is a successful podcaster herself in the sustainability and nutrition space being the host of Nutrition Without Compromise, having reached the top 10% of all podcasts globally in only 3 months, and has been covered in the press from INVERSE to Forbes.

Do you know what your zone of genius is? That place where time stands still, your energy is up and you're "in flow"? I recently had a big breakthrough and shift in recognizing my own zone of genius, and also recognizing how little time I've actually allowed myself to spend there, especially in my entrepreneurial career.
This episode is about not just discovering your own, but also finding the permission you need to allow yourself to spend more time in your own zone of genius.

How do you react when things happen that are beyond your control? I’ve been giving this a lot of thought since, thanks to weather airport shutdowns, I unexpectedly spent my 38th birthday (Christmas Eve) and Christmas all alone. We can’t control our circumstances, but we have a choice in how we show up inside them.
On today’s podcast episode, I’m taking this a step further into unearthing how circumstances you can’t control may or may not be impacting your goals for the new year. In other words, are you setting goals out of a reaction or truly from a place of creation?

With the onset of the pandemic sales for alcohol, flour and marijuana skyrocketed. As a society, many of us self-medicated through isolation and uncertainty, even if it went against our commitments to ourselves and our health. Today I’m joined by Dr. Brooke Scheller, a doctor of clinical nutrition, a nationally recognized health expert, and the founder of Functional Sobriety, a nutrition-based approach to an alcohol-free lifestyle. Bringing transparency to her learning through her own struggles and learning of how to rewrite her relationship with alcohol, she now helps others find freedom through nutrition.
Her launch of Functional Sobriety led to the development of her online community, the Functional Sobriety Network, and her online course, the Alcohol-Free Nutrition Academy. Dr. Brooke is an author and contributor to many health platforms and has been featured on websites like Forbes and Oprah Daily.

Do you tend to relate to menopause as somehow being the end? The end of enjoying sex, the end of feeling like yourself, the end of having a waist? While many of us in the western world relate to menopause as something that is far from joyful, it is entirely possible to not just survive, but thrive through the transition into our “age of wisdom”. I am joined for this conversation today by Alison Bladh, a registered nutritional therapist and beauty therapist living in the wilds of Sweden.
Having worked in the health and wellness industry for over 30 years specializing in menopausal women’s health she now runs her own online clinic helping women worldwide manage the negative symptoms of menopause. Her mission is to support her clients with bespoke changes to diet, health, and lifestyle so they can harness their hormones and get their confidence and sparkle back.
She believes that all women, no matter what age, deserve to reclaim their health and feel great. Life is too short to suffer symptoms that hold you back! Every woman has the right to feel and look amazing in midlife.

Are you waiting for something to come along or to happen so that you can finally be happy and fulfilled? Many of us spend a lifetime chasing this elusive thing called happiness and fulfillment, but struggle to find it in the things we usually look to. My conversation today with the Happiness Mentor Karyn Seitz dives deep into how we actually cultivate happiness and fulfillment in our lives, regardless of our circumstances.
As a former spiritual healer, Karyn realized her clients were not getting better. She was
frustrated that she could not deliver the results her clients wanted even though she was trying lots of different healing modalities and coaching techniques.
Karyn knew she also wasn’t getting the changes she wanted in her life. She secretly lacked any confidence in her ability to change. Her adult life had stalled.
In a fresh new search for answers, Karyn found the missing piece that would ultimately
transform her life and her clients. There is something very profound in owning that she is the
problem in her life. This awareness pushed her to confront herself and get serious about herself and her life.
Karyn is now fulfilled in her life and teaches others the same journey she has taken to find
herself and be happy.
Karyn calls herself The Happiness Mentor and teaches an online happiness course for women called Awakened Grace.

Do you struggle with starting your day/week/year with good intentions only to find yourself doing literally everything but what you intended? In other words, the whole day/week/year goes to hell in a handbasket? In this episode, I’m unpacking how to finally break the cycle of self-sabotage and a lack of motivation. As a preview, it has nothing to do with pushing harder, doing more, or faking it until you make it.

Addiction, trauma, and struggles with mental health are something a large portion of our population struggles with. The treatment options that have been available in the past also have varying results. Today I’m joined by addiction and trauma expert and outside-the-box thinker Dr. Constance Scharff for a discussion on combining western knowledge of addiction and trauma healing with somatic and indigenous healing practices.
Dr. Scharff is an award-winning, bestselling author. She has published three books. Her most recent is Rock to Recovery: Music as a Catalyst for Human Transformation, published in 2021 by Around the Way Publishing. That book won a National Indie Excellence Award, received a GOLD Award in the Nonfiction Book Awards, and an Award of Distinction in the 28th Communicator Awards. She also wrote the Amazon #1 best-selling Ending Addiction for Good and an award-winning poetry book, Meeting God at Midnight. Dr. Scharff writes regularly for several blogs and websites, including Psychology Today, where her articles have received more than one and a quarter million views. Her book reviews can be found in the New York Journal of Books.
In her role as an addiction researcher, Dr. Scharff brings the latest in evidence-based addiction treatment information to those who suffer worldwide from addiction and trauma. She has spoken at conferences and shared information with researchers and mental health professionals in Europe, North and South America, the Middle East, Asia, Oceania, and Africa. Her goal is to eliminate the stigma that is too often associated with addiction and other mental health disorders, so that individuals in need of care will be able to receive that support and lead productive, fulfilling lives. In 2019, she received St. Lawrence University’s Sol Feinstone Humanitarian Award for her advocacy and work on behalf of those with mental health and substance abuse issues.

Do you have a tendency to rush through things in an effort to get them done and off your list? This is a trap I’ve seen myself and every single high-achieving woman I’ve worked with struggle with. We don’t have any kind of radar for what giving something 100% is, because we only know somewhere around 120%-150%. And while that’s not always a bad thing (in certain exceptional situations), I know I have a tendency to apply that kind of thinking to EVERYTHING in my life.
And as I learned the past couple of weeks, if you try to rush things like deep trauma healing and work, you blow right past the capacity of what you can handle and end up sick, injured or both so you actually slow down and listen. It’s a tale as old as time, and this week I’m unpacking my latest lesson in falling into this high achiever pattern of doing life on this week’s episode of the Selfless Syndrome Show.
I also wrote about this in our brand-new newsletter that went out today. Writing is one of my gifts that I’m tapping back into more in the form of email missives and (dare I say it) a new book!

Three years ago I woke up one day, pulled on my favorite pair of pants, and realized I couldn’t button them. I tried the next pair. Same thing. A few minutes later I was left staring at a pile of pants that had fit me just fine the week before, wondering what the heck just happened?
On today’s episode of the Selfless Syndrome show, I unpack what I’ve learned on my own journey, and watched the journeys of my clients as I evolved from focusing solely on functional medicine to truly focusing on healing on not just a physical level but also an emotional level, led to the birth of the Hormone Transformation Roadmap.

Are you clear on what your values are, and are your actions and ways of being in the world aligned with those values? In this episode, I do a deep dive into our values and the five archetypes that drive us towards Selfless Syndrome and living out of alignment with those values.
How’s your self-talk? As women, we are capable of thinking some pretty terrible things about ourselves. Today I am joined by author and coach Sharon Natoli for a deep conversation on how to truly take control of and transform your self-talk.
Sharon is the author of Find Your Voice - Speak up & Be Heard by Mastering Your Self Talk (coming in 2022) and the Founder of the Self Talk Mastery program. With an inspiring, engaging, and thought-provoking style, she talks about what gets in the way of speaking up.
She challenges audiences to go deeper to reveal the levers that will shift them from being a spectator in life, to directly influencing the result by finding their voice and speaking to be heard. Sharon believes when individuals are freer to express themselves, their influence grows, personal power builds and they can get on with making the difference they were born to make.

You know that moment when you recognize you’ve got far too much going on and something has to give? For the majority of us, the thing that gives is something we’re wanting to do for OURSELVES. And that leaves us feeling even more overwhelmed and like we’ve failed. Today’s episode does a deep dive into moving past this and how to shift our focus to what we really actually need, so that we’re in a position to take on more WITHOUT overwhelm and stress. Below are the questions and three parts to the exercise I outlined in this episode:
Part 1 Journaling Topics:
What are two things you can do daily to feed your mind? What are two things you can read in the next 90 days to feed your mind? What are two things you can do daily to feed your body with less stress? What are your goals and aspirations for your health for the next 6 months?
Part 2 Journaling topics: Write down 1-3 times when you let your emotions get the best of you and you were angry, depressed, enraged, etc. Write down what emotions/actions you could have had/taken instead. Make a list of lousy thoughts you find yourself using on a daily basis that could trigger lower-level emotions. Make a list of empowering words or phrases you can put in place of those lousy ones.
Part 3 journal topics: Today I choose to let go of:_____________ This week I choose to let go of:___________ This month I choose to let go of:___________

Earlier this year Gallup magazine reported the gender gap in burnout nearly doubled during the two years of the pandemic and shifting working environments. And Forbes declared the last two years the “Great Resignation” with 40% of women looking for a new employer (or leaving corporate to start a business) citing burnout as the main reason. While burnout has clearly risen for women in the past two years, simply switching jobs, or even launching a business isn’t necessarily the answer to healing. In today’s episode, I share three things you need to consider before making any big changes to escape burnout. If you’re one of the rising numbers of women leaders experiencing burnout, there are two things you can do to help with burnout RIGHT NOW:

Consider joining a Women Leaders’ Burnout Round Table-an intimate video chat about our lives and health, what we're working on, and how we can support each other. This is about building community among women not only broadly, but deeply.

What makes some women I work with wildly successful? I’ve been doing some digging to really boil this down, and what came out was three things: courage, confidence, and clarity. Today I’m sharing a) what that means exactly, and b) three completely different examples of what a few of my clients have been able to create when they’ve found the courage, confidence, and clarity to do the work.

What drives you? This week I’m unpacking this question on a deep level. Having worked with other busy, high-achieving women for a few years now, I’ve come to the conclusion that our own addictive tendencies are often rooted in being addicted to stress and being driven to success to avoid dealing with the parts of our lives that are painful and feels unsafe. We use our drive and our successes as a way to hide from our trauma, pain, or our own sense of lack of worth and keep ourselves safe by pushing to new heights, all while not wholly being engaged in our own lives.

Today’s episode is a deep dive into closing the gap between the things we “know” about what we need to do for our health and actually doing it. This discussion is specific to the concept of burnout, which is both on the rise in those ages 40-60 and affects far more women than men. I’m joined by a nurse practitioner and founder of Seva Health and the Seva Institute Angel V. Shannon to dive into what do we do if we find ourselves in mid-life, burnt out, and asking “what’s next?” Angel V. Shannon MS, CRNP is a personal development keynote speaker, board-certified nurse practitioner, and founder of Seva Health and The Seva Institute. Her inspiring presentations are drawn from over two decades of clinical practice and a lifetime study of integrative health and mind-body medicine. Her engaging workshops and seminars teach people how to intentionally create a foundation of specific health practices that will help them achieve better health and continuous personal improvement in every area of their lives.
Angel doesn't just talk about mind-body medicine, she lives it. As a student of T’ai Chi Chuan and having received her teaching certification in Hatha yoga, she is a pioneer in weaving both wisdom traditions into her clinical and private coaching practice. In 2019, she founded the Seva Institute to bring these ancient contemplative practices into the corporate environment by leading corporate workshops in mindfulness-based stress reduction to help participants overcome work-related stress, develop inner resilience and foster a culture of embodied leadership.
A graduate of the University of Maryland and a member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, Angel’s talks, teaching, and clinical practice are always one part science and one part storytelling as she shares the inspiring stories of the many people she's helped successfully lose weight, reverse chronic illnesses and rescue their mental health to reach peak performance in their lives. In addition to managing her busy clinical and coaching practice, Angel is the host of Healthy House Calls With Angel, a podcast filled with tips, tools, and strategies to live longer and live better with lifestyle medicine.

In today’s podcast episode we’re stepping into a completely different realm of health. I’m joined by coach, speaker, and author Darcy Eikenberg as we discuss her new book “Red Cape Rescue: Save Your Career Without Leaving Your Job”. What we do (or don’t do) from 9-5 has a huge impact on our health. If your JOB is a big source of stress, this is the conversation for you.

Today I’m joined by functional fertility expert English Goldsborough for a conversation that really spans beyond fertility to balancing hormones and helping your body work correctly in general.

Do you intellectualize and overanalyze your feelings rather than just…allow yourself to FEEL them? I shared this conversation in my free group last week and felt it was important enough to share here as well. In discussing this with others, I’ve found it can be a common difficulty among busy women to ignore, move past, or analyze our feelings rather than just feeling them. In the world of neuroscience, thoughts are the emotions of the brain and feelings are the emotions of the body. In order to be healthy, the two must move towards coherence. So the question posed in this episode: do you trust yourself? Do you allow yourself to feel? And how connected are you between your brain and your heart? To connect with Dr. Alex further visit:

What do food, sex, money, and perfectionism have in common? Or have to do with our health? Actually, a whole heck of a lot. Today’s conversation with naturopathic doctor Dawn Dalili gets into all of these things, as well as how we start to move towards letting go of perfectionism and finding healing in all of these areas and more. Dr. Dalili helps women overcome hormone-related issues such as PMS, anxiety/depression, fatigue, and weight. She has a passion for helping women transform their relationship with food and body, as she believes that our beliefs about our worth have huge impacts on the health and vitality we experience.
Dr. Dalili can support you in one of three ways: 1 - a comprehensive lab evaluation to help you understand your gut, hormones, and metabolism; 2 - Eat to Win: a 4 session deep dive to transform your relationship with food and body; 3 - Mind Makeover: a 4 session deep-dive focused on negative emotions and limiting beliefs using the tools of NLP.

Do you struggle to give yourself permission to take things off your plate? Especially things that maybe aren’t serving you or helping you progress towards major goals? Sometimes we don’t even realize how much freedom and relief is available if we would just give ourselves permission to remove, or even just reduce a commitment or activity we have on our plate. Today I’m sharing my own recent experience with this and giving you some practical tips on taking creating more space for the things that really serve you right now without having to feel like you’re letting yourself or someone else down. Sometimes less is more. To connect with Dr. Alex further visit:

Today’s conversation with Functional Nurse Practitioner Christa Elza bridges the gap between western medicine and lifestyle diseases–which are what most of us are experiencing with hormone imbalances, difficulty losing weight, and more. This episode will help you navigate the world or what’s within your control with your health and how you start to access feeling better and truly healing. Christa graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2000. She was immediately drawn to Emergency Medicine and was a trauma nurse for 8 years. She was able to experience working in this field in hospitals around the country including New York City and Norfolk, Virginia.
Christa earned her Master's Degree in Nursing from Texas State University in 2018 and is a board-certified nurse practitioner in Family Practice Medicine. She was the sole practitioner in a clinic specializing in weight loss, hormone balance, and aesthetics. During this time she realized the toolbox of what she could offer for health solutions was too limited for how she wanted to serve her patients. She wanted a better way to help women achieve lasting health results. With that vision in mind, Christa began her journey with the School of Applied Functional Medicine, learning the root cause approach to personalized healthcare.
In August of 2020, Christa launched her virtual health practice, Elive Health, and is now able to provide help to women around the country via webcam. As a functional-medicine expert, she specializes in clinically investigating underlying factors of fatigue, hormone balance, thyroid issues, digestive issues, and more. Christa uses breakthrough diagnostic testing that’s rarely done in conventional settings to uncover the hidden causes of why women feel the way they feel.
In her free time, you can find Christa spending time with her husband of 17 years, Jon, their 3 boys, + her golden retriever, Tori. She is now living in the San Antonio, TX area and loves being outdoors, skiing, traveling, hanging out poolside, + spending time with friends.

At some point, we all hit a point where sleep becomes a struggle. Be it the journey with small children, perimenopause, and aging, the state of the world, or something else can impact our sleep. It also has a host of negative effects on our hormones and overall health. And can be very frustrating to try to get back. Today I’m joined by Embodiment and Sleep Coach Amish Klawonn for an in-depth conversation about sleep, specific to busy, driven women.
Amisha Klawonn is an Embodiment & Sleep Coach, Yoga Therapist, and Integrative Physical Therapist currently living and working in Fort Collins, CO. Her areas of focus as a Coach are sleep, wellness, whole body living, and manifesting. Her focus as an Integrative PT are visceral mobilization and holistic care for the whole person.

She works with individuals one on one and in groups to help guide them to their best versions of themselves. She empowers individuals to create their visions for their lives, igniting a transformation from the inside out.
Amisha has extensively mentored and studied in the fields of chronic pain and spinal rehabilitation and whole-body wellness.
When she isn’t coaching, training or learning, she is spending time with her husband, son, and black lab mix usually hiking, doing yoga, or walking around the lake. She’s also rewiring her brain to play the guitar and frequently spends time with the horses in her area.

Pain, whether emotional, physical, or most often, both is not something we wish on anyone. At times, we also find ourselves in cycles of pain. Speaking on this topic less than a week after having somewhat major surgery on my wrist for the second time, we’re diving into how to approach pain without fear or hurting other parts of our bodies with reliance on medications that are hard on the liver. I share some of my tips, tricks, and what I’ve done to no longer be on pain medication only 6 days after surgery. To connect with Dr. Alex further visit:

I loved today’s conversation with Lia Pinelli around what’s missing in the “weight loss” world and truly healing our mindset and relationship with food. If you struggle with chronically dieting, food taking up a large portion of your mental brain space, having tried everything to lose weight and not seeing any results, overeating, undereating, etc. this conversation is for you. Lia is one smart cookie. Despite holding degrees from both Stanford and UC Berkeley she was unable to crack the code on her struggle with overeating for decades. In 2016 she began life coach training and learned how to stop overeating using principles and practices rooted in psychology and neuroscience. She is now on a mission to help women take back their lives from outdated patriarchal norms by first ending their battle with food and weight so they can focus on what really matters– their careers, kids, communities, and lives. She now teaches women how to stop overeating by increasing pleasure and liberating them to create the lives they crave, unapologetically. Obsessed with Lizzo, bad feminism, and Real Housewives, you can count on her to have a cocktail in her hand and a good story on her tongue. Fiercely committed to changing the trajectory for the next generation of girls by helping their mothers and mentors end overeating and feel good in their own skin, Lia lives in California with her husband, son, and a dog named Taco.

Have you ever failed at something? I certainly have. And while it wasn’t fun to go through, it has allowed me to grow, learn and evolve into the person, practitioner, and human that I am today. However, for many, the prospect or experience of failure will stop them in their tracks, keep them stuck, or play small when they are capable of so much more. Today I unpack and reframe how we approach failure and dive into how failure is actually necessary for our success. This applies to any area of life, and I share from some of my own experiences with failure that I haven’t talked about so transparently before.
The book I mention and read a quote from is A Happy Pocket Full of Money by David Cameron Gikandi.

Figuring out how to help our kids (regardless of age) navigate the world since 2020 has been a challenge for many parents I’ve talked with. Today I’m joined by the creator of the Instinctual Parent Coaching Program, Delsey Daruwalla for a conversation that spans helping our kids (and really ourselves) navigate a world of anxiety, trauma, changes in social norms and so much more. No matter the age of your kids, this is a conversation we all could use. Delsey Daruwalla is the founder of ‘The Instinctual Parent’, a coaching program for parents who want to learn to foster cooperative & harmonious relationships with their children. She’s a chiropractor by trade and mother of 2 boys, as well the founder & CEO of ‘Functional Health’ a chronic pain & stress practice in Auckland, New Zealand. Delsey has spent years working with people struggling to deal with stress, trauma, anxiety, mood, and healthy habit formation. And through her own experiences, clinical experience & personal research, she discovered a lot of the causes came from how we are parented which pushed her to create a method parents could trust to get the results.

A few weeks ago I had a bit of a soapbox moment when NPR published an article about natural immunity following some “new” data around COVID. I’ll save my sarcastic comments. Having had a nasty (non-COVID) cold the last week myself, I thought it was as good a time as any to revisit what immunity really is, how we can improve or lose it, and what it truly means to be healthy.

Since 2020 mental health needs have increased dramatically as fear and uncertainty have led to an influx of anxiety and depression among all ages. Even I experienced the signs of anxiety as we moved further into the pandemic last year. As we started another crisis affecting the entire world last week, I decided today was a good day to dive into the importance of protecting our own mental health (not in ignorance, but in knowing our own needs) in the coming weeks and months.

When is the last time you ate organ meat? Ie heart, kidneys, lungs, liver, etc? Not even 100 years ago, organs were eaten far more often than they are today. They also provide a host of nutrients and health benefits that are missing from our daily nutrition today. I’m joined by Chef James Barry who has a plethora of information to share about not just eating nose to tail, but also how to start bringing home cooking, a renewed relationship with food and meals back into your home. We also dive deep into how to encourage picky kid eaters to expand their habits and find the time and joy in eating and cooking again. James Barry’s 16 + years in the culinary field started as a private chef cooking for celebrities such as Tom Cruise, Mariska Hargitay, George Clooney, Gerard Butler, Sean “Puffy” Combs, Barbra Streisand, and John Cusack. Most recently, James launched his first functional food product, Pluck, an organ-based, all-purpose seasoning. It's the first of its kind and an amazingly easy and delicious way for people to get organ meats into their diet. James is also a published cookbook author having co-authored the recipes in Margaret Floyd’s book Eat Naked and co-authored the follow-up cookbook The Naked Foods Cookbook. He most recently co-authored the recipes in Dr. Alejandro Junger’s book, Clean 7.

On Feb 10th, Emerge hit 2 years, 150 episodes, and close to 75 interviews with women’s health and leadership thought leaders from all over the world. I almost skipped over saying anything about it or celebrating, because that’s just what I normally do! Today I unpack a little bit of that mindset that keeps us from celebrating our accomplishments and share some of the milestones I’ve hit in the podcasting world in the past two years. It’s a short but sweet encouragement to all of us not to forget to celebrate, even when it seems like something small!

Why do so many of us as women struggle with what I refer to as “Selfless Syndrome”? That innate drive that tells us other people/things are more important, we don’t matter, we don’t have time, or we have to feel guilty for doing anything for ourselves. In this episode, I’m diving into some deep thoughts on why this is and the impact it has on our health.

Today I’m joined by Dr. Debi Silber the founder of the Post Betrayal Transformation Institute for an in-depth discussion of how we heal betrayal. Dr. Silber’s research has shown that betrayal is an experience that does not behave like any other experience out there. It also makes transforming through the betrayal very different from other work and growth we might go through. We discuss not only why this is, but also how to fully heal from it.
Dr. Debi Silber is the founder of the Post Betrayal Transformation Institute and is a holistic psychologist, health, mindset, and personal development expert, the author of the #1 bestselling book: The Unshakable Woman: 4 Steps to Rebuilding Your Body, Mind, and Life After a Life Crisis and her newest book: Trust Again: Overcoming Betrayal and Regaining Health, Confidence, and Happiness. Her recent Ph.D. study on how we experience betrayal made 3 groundbreaking discoveries that changes how long it takes to heal. In addition to being on FOX, CBS, The Dr. Oz Show, TEDx (twice), and more, she’s an award-winning speaker, coach, and author dedicated to helping people move past their betrayals as well as any other blocks preventing them from the health, work, relationships, confidence and happiness they want most.

So much of our lives run on autopilot. We don’t consciously think about things like breathing, or our heart beating. They just happen for us.

I also share some of the tools and technology out there to help you do this (some I like, and some I don’t).

The longer I’ve worked in women’s health, the more frustrated I’ve become by the weight loss industry and the myths that are perpetuated and end up causing us more harm than good.

When is the last time you really visualized doing or achieving something? For me, it had been a while (20 years a while) when I really stopped to think about it. Most of us stay too busy to take the time to really focus on goals becoming a reality. In today’s episode, I unpack this idea, and most importantly, how to use visualization to make 2022 different from every other year.

Brian is the author of two bestsellers The Fitness Mindset and Rewire Your Mindset.

We all have negative narratives that run our lives, especially as women. The negative self-talk is strong and often perpetuated by the evidence we collect in our interactions with others and ourselves. This also keeps us stuck, frustrated, and unable to move forward when it comes to weight loss and changing our health. Today we discuss how to interrupt the narrative that runs our lives to move forward.

How we view ourselves, compare ourselves to others and engage in social media to contribute to those things can be so ugly, disheartening, and detrimental to our psyche, well-being, and who we really are in the world. An incident two weeks ago really upset and challenged me to do some deep thinking about body image and how we allow ourselves to hide based on external factors. I encourage everyone to listen, go deep on this with me, and share it because we absolutely need to transform this conversation and stop hiding who we really are based on an external view of ourselves.
The book I mention and quote on this episode is Essentialism by Greg Mckeown.

What is a “flow state”? This is a term that’s utilized in the world of functional medicine and coaching that I would argue isn’t often well understood. This week we’re unpacking what the flow state is and getting into a bit more depth with understanding the brain and making lasting changes.

Feeling frustrated trying to lose weight is something just about every woman I know struggles with. Today I talk about how to really divorce frustration as part of your journey by shifting your focus and adopting a different way of “being” along the journey.
Below you will find the transcript for this episode as well.
Today I wanted to share some thoughts that have come up recently in my group program that has been geared more at weight loss that I just launched over the summer. And, you know, in it, we've been helping lots of women lose lots of weight, you know, anywhere from 20 to 40 pounds at this point, but, I find that all of us and this is so ingrained in us and we're actually gonna be talking about this in a lot more depth on Thursday with the guest interview that I have coming out for you guys. It's so ingrained in us too. If we want to lose weight, we have to eat less exercise more, right like we just are all ingrained with this, this thought.
I've been on my own weight loss journey since March and I went pretty hardcore and extreme which is what we do in this program that I've put together. But since then, I've continued to lose weight but without, you know, working quite so hard at it mostly because I'm starting to feel pretty comfortable with where I'm at I saw some weight I want to lose, but it hasn't been you know, there's not as much of a push there at this time. And so I've been experimenting, if you will, with a few things knowing that my hormones are back in balance. My thyroid is normalized and my estrogen levels have normalized and that was a part of why I was having trouble before. But recently, like in the last two weeks, I finally felt like my wrist is strong enough again to start working out. And so I've started doing that. And this has brought on kind of these new levels of things. I've also been experimenting with intermittent fasting, which was one of the most popular episodes that we have on here. So I know many women are interested in that or trying that or testing that.
And I will say, one of the common mistakes that we make is we combine intermittent fasting with not eating enough and then we try to also work out and this is a recipe for disaster because all of these things are increasing stress on the body, you're not getting enough food so your body thinks you're starving, your metabolism starts to slow down, which means it's not going to burn anything and we're either not working out, or not moving enough, or we're pushing ourselves way too hard. And so all that is also increasing our stress and inflammation and so rather than losing weight, we start to put weight on. And we were talking about on our group coaching call this week whenever you're courting this, you know, talking about the other things that can cause the scale to go in the other direction that doesn't necessarily have to do with eating because I talked to so many women. It does have to do with exercise, but not necessarily eating.
So many of us are eating these super restrictive diets where we feel like we're doing all the things we're eating well and you know doing all this, but we either don't see the scale move or sometimes we see it go in the wrong direction. Earlier this year I got into the habit of actually weighing myself every day. Not from a like obsessive, unhealthy place of needing to see the scale going down, but I'm really truly able to just step back objectively and observe this and I've been really curious to just see you know how my weight will fluctuate through the month. At what times in my cycle different things like I'll go up a couple of pounds, and I'll come down a couple of pounds, but overall the overall trend has been that things are going you know, it's going down and I've seen like the lowest weight that I've ever seen in years, you know, consistently come up every couple of weeks and like that's exciting. That's cool.
But what I've been really present to, especially as I've added...

At the beginning of October, I decided to take on what I’m calling the “Daily Coffee Enema Challenge”. Today I’m sharing my experience with this practice, including some of the history behind WHY you would want to do it, and how you actually go about making it a part of your routine. Most people don’t realize this practice has actually been around since 1500 BC and got its start in western medicine helping soldiers in World War I with managing their pain levels.
Part of this exploration was inspired by my interview with Eileen Durfee on Episode 109, who has been doing daily coffee enemas for years. You can catch that interview on any podcast platform and also download my coffee enema guide https://documentcloud.adobe.com/link/review?uri=urn:aaid:scds:US:f4cc6a71-896e-41f1-9b7e-4370a0ee9cfd (here).

I had some thoughts and opinions about Intermittent Fasting that were changed by this interview with Intermittent Fasting Coach Laurie Lewis. Even if you’ve been practicing it for a while, I promise you can learn something. For Intermittent Fasting Coach and Author, Laurie Lewis, menopause dealt a crushing blow -- brain fog, lack of balance, memory loss, and the sudden gain of 50 pounds of stubborn hormonal fat. She tried everything she knew to feel better, and the methods that worked in the past made no difference. After four years of struggle, Laurie stumbled upon Intermittent Fasting and started fasting that very same day. The menopausal fog lifted in less than one week, she had more energy and felt more “like herself.” She lost 51 pounds in 15 months and has kept it off for years!
Now, at 57-years old, Laurie has turned her personal success into the premier thriving Intermittent Fasting coaching business. As a certified health coach (Institute for Integrative Nutrition) she combines her knowledge of nutrition with deep research and practice of Time Restricted Eating. Laurie guides her clients with a dream come true -- eat the foods you love and enjoy the rest of your life feeling vibrantly well.

Last week while I was accompanying my husband on a work trip, we ended up at a fancy steak house for dinner. On the menu, printed in big, bold print, they boasted having the best CORN FED beef in the country. If you’re reading this and wondering why I’m pointing out this little tidbit of information, you should definitely listen to today’s podcast episode on food quality and our values. There is SOOOOO much about the food industry that is not discussed, and that many don’t know or understand. Even if you do, it’s still worth listening.

How aware are you of the words you use on a daily basis? We aren’t often aware of how our language impacts us subconsciously. There is power in language, and there is also sabotage.

Today, we’re celebrating the 100th episode of Rejuvenated Women, while getting into the down and dirty of this desire to hide and not acknowledge the things we accomplish, or to allow perfectionism and fear to hold us back from putting ourselves out there. When is the last time you paused long enough to celebrate something you’ve achieved? It doesn’t matter if it’s big or small…
Personally, this is something that I’ve consistently sucked at throughout my life.
I use excuses like “I don’t want to brag or toot my own horn” or “it’s not really a big deal” or “I’ll get to it later”.
But the truth is, often it has more to do with a self-worth conversation that leads to not wanting to acknowledge the big (or even small) achievements I’ve made in my life.
And I know I’m not alone in this, because I watch my clients struggle with the same thing every day.
If you’ve been part of the journey that has led to Rejuvenated Women:
✅ Hitting 8,000 downloads in 18 months ✅ Reaching women in 11 different countries ✅ Hitting the Top 150 Shows in Alternative Health in Ireland & the UK ✅ Creating a community of like-minded women up to big things and wanting to keep their balance...
Know I am incredibly humbled by and thankful for each of you.
Join me in celebrating Episode 100 and sharing some of the great things that have happened on this show! It’s been an honor, and there is oh so much more to come.

Are you designing your life to thrive long-term or on the fast track to burnout? So many of us in the world of “high performance” set ourselves up for the crash that inevitably will come when we ignore ourselves and push too hard. I’m joined by women’s burnout and libido expert Dr. Renee Wellenstein for a deep conversation on how to interrupt the cycle, stop “shoulding” ourselves, discover ourselves again, improve energy and reignite our libido. Dr. Renee is a double board-certified doctor who has been working with women for over 20 years and due to her own personal health challenges, she stepped outside the box of conventional medicine to take a radically different approach to heal herself from the deep depths of burnout.
About a decade ago, Dr. Renee was living what she thought was her dream life; she was an extremely busy Ob/Gyn, married to a doctor, with toddler twins, and had moved to a quaint, quiet town in the country. One day in May 2012, Dr. Renee fell off of her horse during a riding lesson and broke her back. She not only struggled with severe back pain, but with fatigue and the inability to focus. Her doctor diagnosed her with depression, but her symptoms did not improve after trying two different antidepressants.
Two years after her injury, Dr. Renee was still struggling with unexplained symptoms. After exhausting all of her options in the conventional healthcare system, she was put in contact with a doctor who was an “anti-aging” practitioner. She finally received the appropriate diagnosis, her symptoms resolved and she got back on her feet and joined the world of functional medicine. In August 2019, Dr. Renee started Kaspira Elite Health Consulting, LLC.

With the Pfizer FDA approval coming through yesterday, the rise in the delta variant increased conversation around mandatory workplace vaccines, and New York City’s recent changes, I felt it was time to share some information and my own opinion with you. An opinion that may differ from either side of the vaccine conversations happening out there. This episode is NOT meant as any kind of medical advice, a political stance, or here to shame anyone for their choices. My position has always been to spark taking a proactive role in our own health and this conversation is no exception. It is designed to inspire some deep thinking, help you understand your own body and immune system, and give some helpful advice around how to best support your body regardless of your vaccination status.

The connection between a healthy gut and healthy skin is one that has been more accepted and studied over the past several decades. However, as my interview with clinical nutritionist Jennifer Fugo, who specializes in healing chronic skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, dandruff + hives (those things conventional medicine struggles to find real solutions for), it’s actually about much more than just your gut health. Enjoy this really great conversation all about your skin. Jennifer Fugo, MS, LDN, CNS is a clinical nutritionist empowering adults who’ve been failed by conventional medicine to beat chronic skin and unending gut challenges. She has experience working with conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, dandruff + hives — with clientele ranging from regular folks to celebrities + professional athletes.
Jennifer also founded her own line of skincare + supplements available at www.QuellShop.com specifically for people struggling with these chronic skin issues.
She holds a Master’s degree in Human Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport and is a Licensed Dietitian-Nutritionist and Certified Nutrition Specialist. Her work has been featured on Dr. Oz, Reuters, Yahoo!, CNN, and many podcasts and summits. Jennifer is a faculty member of the LearnSkin platform, an Amazon best-selling author, and the host of the Healthy Skin Show.

How aware are you of your food choices or behaviors when it comes to your health? For most of us, it’s not something we focus on or notice at all.

According to children’s holistic mental health expert Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, our kids do this fancy thing called “co-regulating”. In other words, if we’re stressed, they’re going to be stressed. What does this mean for how we can be the best moms (or parents) possible? This is the topic of my discussion with Dr. Roseann (and more) on today’s episode of Rejuvenated Women. Dr. Roseann is a mental health trailblazer, founder of The Global Institute of Children’s Mental Health, and media personality who is, “Changing the way we view and treat children’s mental health”.

How do you define being a high performer? So many of us base performance on busyness. How many things can we fit on our plate or balls can we juggle in the air? Too many of us focus on the “stuff” and not the results that we’re producing.

When I was in chiropractic school I was known for being a bit of a thorn in the school administration’s side as the chief content editor of our school paper. At one point, I even declared war on funnel cakes ;) While I was booed and poked fun at by many of my peers, my point had more to do with integrity...and is actually applicable to all of us. Today’s episode of Rejuvenated Women is a reprisal of sorts of my war on funnel cakes...with a gentle reminder of the importance of keeping our word to ourselves and others.

Is it my thyroid?!? 1:8 women will have a thyroid problem at some point in their lives. After menopause, it’s 1:3. But sadly conventional medicine doesn’t typically offer more than lifelong medication once you’re so far past “fine” that it’s hard to get back. Today’s episode is a deep dive into all things thyroid with the Thyroid Fixer-Dr. Amie Hornaman. Dr. Amie Hornaman DCN, MsN, CFMP, a.k.a The Thyroid-Fixer, a woman on a mission to optimize thyroid patients around the world and give them their lives back using her transformational program: The COMPLETE Thyroid Fix Method (CTFM).
After her own experience of insufferable symptoms, misdiagnoses, and improper treatment, Amie set out to help others who she KNEW were going through the same set of frustrations and who were on the same medical roller coaster.
She grabs your hand, gives you answers about your health that no one has told you, and gives you the actual tools and treatment to fix you. That’s the transformational journey. With a focus on optimizing thyroid function and thus optimizing her patients, Amie looks at each person as a unique individual and not JUST a lab value. She examines all factors that tie into thyroid dysfunction and thyroid symptoms and treats the person from top to bottom to give them their lives back.

It can be easy to forget how much of our success is actually tied to our mindset. We want to focus on more knowledge, more tools, more of this, more of that. But if you don’t believe it’s possible, it doesn’t matter WHAT you do. It won’t be successful. Today’s podcast episode dives into this concept in more detail, sharing what I learned watching my 8 year old conquer a challenging part of a ropes course.

The #1 Thing High Performing Women Suck At
Rest...that four letter word that tends to allude us as high performing women. Building rest (not just sleep) into our lives is essential for our sanity and our health. This week I unpack what this looks like in the real world.

Today’s episode isn’t an easy topic, but it’s an important one. I’m joined by grief survivor and educator Peggy Green whose life’s mission is to help others grieving the loss of a child. While her story and our conversation tackles the difficult topic of child loss, it applies to anyone who has experienced loss, especially in the midst of 2020. Peggy’s passion is to share her 4 Cornerstones of Healing where she helps grieving moms move through their loss. She shows how she overcame her own challenges and offers realistic and applicable practices that help others to heal. She is inspiring and a true example that there is hope.

Do you find yourself ignoring ailments, injuries, relationships or know that you hate your job and it’s a constant source of stress but you stay stuck? Springboarding from my own confirmation two weeks ago that I retore my wrist 1.5 years post-surgery by being pig-headed, stubborn, and not wanting to let my chiropractic career go, I unpack what it takes to get off the insanity loop that we can keep ourselves stuck in that ultimately leads to having less than optimal health on this episode.

“So how did you lose the weight? Was it just doing keto?” This has been a common question I’ve been getting since going public with my own weight loss journey last week. And while my process did involve eating to put my body into ketosis (ie fat-burning mode) I did NOT follow a “keto diet”. This week I unpack what I mean by that and the concept of following a “diet” versus transforming your relationship with food and explain more what the difference between a keto diet and eating to put your body into ketosis actually looks like. The webinar from last week on Stubborn Weight Loss mentioned can be found here” https://dralexridley.easywebinar.live/stubborn-weight-loss-replay

Birth Control is one of those sometimes difficult things to figure out. I, like many other women I know, have never been a fan of taking birth control with the laundry list of side effects that can result. Today I’m joined by Pharmacist and natural family planning expert Dr. Emily Kirkwold for a discussion of what the alternatives are to hormonal birth control. I even learned a few things during our conversation ;) You can learn more about Dr. Emily and her work at http://www.nfppharmacist.com/ (www.nfppharmacist.com)

Ever since I got back from my trip I’ve been having a hard time getting back into the swing of things. Instead of diving back into work and a routine, I’ve found myself binging on Netflix, reading books, and getting outside. I’ve also heard from many of my clients that they are either in the same place or so overwhelmed by the amount on their plate their frozen and not getting anything done. In this episode, I unpack the “lost motivation” topic from the standpoint of being a high-performing woman and dive into some of the shifts we need to make in order to maintain our drive easily and without these periods of hiding from what we’re committed to.

A common question I get is “how do I maintain a diet while traveling?” Aside from that, I hate the word “diet”...let’s just call it how you feed your body to nourish it with the things it needs to function properly ;) Fresh off my own 3.5 weeks of traveling this month, I share some tips and tricks for how you approach traveling while maintaining your health and not falling into the fast-food trap.

Sometimes in a healing process, we need to be willing to get out of our comfort zone and try new things. It might be a new modality or an entirely new approach to health. Today I share my experience in this vein with saunas and some of the benefits I found (especially post covid) by doing something new. If you’re looking for sauna options that are portable and not a huge investment, check out www.therassage.com for more information.

After another trip to urgent care to get my lungs checked due to the worst cough I’ve ever had that just won’t go away, I found myself officially classified as a Covid “Long Hauler”. These are the people that for whatever reason have issues from Covid that linger well beyond the 10-day mark. Today I share some of the resources and help I’ve been able to find that covers the bases in both conventional and unconventional medicine. There’s no rhyme or reason that I can find for who gets sick long-term and who recovers just fine. All we can do is keep doing our best to be and stay healthy!

Is playing injured holding you back? I don’t mean from a sport or some athletic endeavor (though that certainly applies here). What I mean is from the game of LIFE. In today’s episode, I share some insight into what our injuries--whether emotional or physical--can do to us in terms of keeping us stuck and not able to move forward. I also share some examples of what it looks like to truly transform through an injury into a better version of yourself.

I've spent much of the past two weeks tied to the couch or bed coughing, with a fever and no appetite, and seeing improvement come very slowly. Having now had Covid, there's a lot about it that doesn't make sense to me. There's also a lot I've learned while being tied to the bed with little desire to do much of anything.

When we are sick or injured we pay attention to our physical pains, but it’s rare that we focus in on what’s happening to our body energetically. On today’s episode of Rejuvenated Women with guest Damla Aktekin, we dive into understanding and healing energetic wounds. The subject content of our conversation might be new or very outside the box for many (I actually learned a lot during our interview) but I encourage everyone to listen with an open mind. Damla Aktekin is an Energetic Wound Healer, Coach, and Writer who helps other self-healers and healers move beyond their energetic wounds and shine brighter than they thought possible so that they can fully show up in their lives to heal themselves, their families, and their soul-tribe. She is the author of life-changing daily practice journals including 40 Days Of Shanti Mantra Journal and Crystal Healing Journal, creator of the Chakra Bliss Vault Energy Healing Membership, and the host of the Conversations With Healers Podcast. She loves holding healing space for those with energetic wounds and teaching bliss-filled healing, movement, and meditation journeys. You can find out more about her offerings and take a quiz to determine your energetic wounds and how they show up in your life on her website: https://adropofom.com.

Having no energy and feeling utterly exhausted all the time is a real thing and a real problem. But the reality is that it is much more complex than simply your adrenal glands not functioning correctly. I tackle some of the science behind this phenomenon and get into some of the specifics that can be leading to low energy levels on today’s episode of Rejuvenated Women. Having no energy and feeling utterly exhausted all the time is a real thing and a real problem. But the reality is that it is much more complex than simply your adrenal glands not functioning correctly. A few months ago, I listened to a lecture with Arie Witten, the author of The Energy Blueprint and host of a podcast by the same name. Years ago, he was really interested in this Adrenal fatigue thing and wanted to prove it was real. So he did his research, and what he found was that Adrenal Fatigue isn’t actually a thing.
What is a thing is HPA axis dysfunction and the role stress (cortisol) can play in causing major disruptions to your hormones and energy levels.

Integrity. While we all probably “know” the definition of the word--ie doing what you say you’re going to do, by when you say you’re going to do it--the concept actually goes a lot deeper than what we think we know. when it comes to our health and our own transformation, integrity is one of those important concepts that is usually a culprit in why you’re staying stuck or not moving forward whether with your health or some other area of life. We have to be willing to look at how our word impacts our health decisions, and whether or not we actually have integrity with ourselves. I discuss this concept and more with today’s guest, Brittany Cotton. Brittany specializes in leadership, mindset, and executive coaching. She has worked with leaders at Facebook, Microsoft, LiveNation, and Lyft. She is the Chief Registration Officer and a Program Leader with Accomplishment Coaching and holds the Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential from the International Coach Federation. She is also an independent contracted Coach with Play Big, a corporate coaching company dedicated to developing high-performance cultures. She doesn’t stop at co-creating with others one-on-one, her wit, pointed mind, and loving heart drives her to publish stories and opinion pieces that wedge themselves into your psyche, inspiring you to take action in your life, and the world around it. If Brittany had it her way, everyone would see their greatness, and act in spite of fear, in the pursuit of authoring lives of joy, success, and adventure.

I regularly talk to or work with women who are struggling to lose weight. I’ve also been there myself in the past few years. The most frustrating thing is that you can be doing all the right things, and just be watching the scale go up.

The biggest thing that holds us back can really be boiled down to fear. And with change, our fear can come out in full force. This week I’m joined by travel show host, actress, author, and fellow podcast host Monica Ortega in a discussion around the Power of Pivoting. We discuss big dreams, pivoting goals, and how to take steps toward the person you want to be even in the midst of uncontrollable circumstances. Monica Ortega is a professional on-camera host, speaker, and actress from Holt, Michigan. She created the online travel show Monica Goes in 2015 to inspire others to break out of their comfort zones and go on adventures. As someone who's afraid of everything, she'll put herself through almost anything to show that if an average everyday person like her can do these things, anyone can.
She's produced and hosted over 100 episodes, created destination videos for over 40 DMO's, and been featured on Matador Network, USA Today's 10Best, Insider Travel, REI, and more!
Monica has spoken openly about how her personal setbacks have helped her pivot into creating a life that she loves. She speaks at events around the country helping others to embrace change and create their own dream life. Monica emcees at some of the biggest music festivals in the nation and has been seen in over 20 commercials on TV. She is also a co-host on the podcast Stumblin' Forward which is all about the missteps of entrepreneurship and life.
When she's not traveling, Monica can usually be found out on a hiking trail with her adventure dog Millie exploring their new home in Denver, Colorado

How connected are you to your true and authentic self? When we’re not connected our health suffers, our relationships suffer, our finances suffer, and we just go through the day-to-day instead of thriving in our lives. So many of us as women stay stuck in careers we aren’t thriving in or hold ourselves back for one reason or another. Today I offer some insight and tips into tapping into our creative, authentic, and genius side so that we can find more freedom, joy, and happiness in our day-to-day lives.

Menopause is a time that can cause a lot of stress, confusion and WTH moments for many women. This week’s episode takes a deep dive into menopause, steps you can take to be proactive, and the driving force behind surgeon Dr. Michelle Gordon’s work to develop the Meno Movement to support women during this transition. Our conversation ranges from nutrition to quantum physics, to mindset and psychology around the transition through menopause. If you are a woman, whether or not you're approaching or have been through menopause, this conversation is for you!
Dr. Gordon ran a Surgical Practice from 2005 to 2020 growing it to 8 surgeons until the healthcare crisis in the US, corporate medicine failure, and Covid-19 made it difficult to operate. When she founded the Menopause Movement, she was a practicing surgeon and realized there just wasn't enough readily available information for women in menopause, so she developed the content, processes, and study to help other women going through the same things she was.
Through much research, she discovered the truth about menopause and made changes in her life. She understands the steps a woman must take to embrace the ‘Who I am now’ and make this the ‘Best time of my life’ without suffering.

I hear from more and more of my clients and patients how frustrated they feel seeing their doctors. To be clear, I don’t fault any doctors in this. We have a medical system in the US and in other western countries that have been the breeding ground for shortened appointment times, long waits, and generally a lack of answers beyond an antibiotic or a surgery. EVERYONE in the system is frustrated. And yet, even in the alternative health world I exist in, there is a time and a place where western medicine serves a purpose.

Mature pregnancy is becoming more and more common, especially among high-performing women. This interview with Dr. Andrea Purcell on being over 35 and pregnant marks the first in a series of episodes that will be tackling conversations around hormones, fertility, menopause, and the big contributing factor to issues with hormones, fertility, and symptomatic menopause-stress. Dr. Andrea Purcell has joined us on the show before in a conversation around menopause. This conversation is another aspect to her holistic practice with women which is based on her own experience--being over 35 and pregnant. This experience has also been documented in her book, Over 35 & Pregnant.
We cover a wide range of topics on being pregnant later in life (or any time) from what your body is going through to choosing your birth village, to navigating the 4th trimester and more.

If you've found yourself frustrated and wondering why you can't seem to lose weight, why your sex drive has tanked, your periods are horrible, sex is painful, you're growing hair in weird places, are always exhausted, or just feel like something it wrong...it probably is. In this episode, I discuss the sex hormones estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone, and how they can get thrown off and wreak havoc on your health, body, and relationships. And most importantly, what you can do about it. Two years ago I found myself rapidly gaining weight. My pants just got tighter and tighter. Then they stopped fitting altogether. My breasts grew two cup sizes (larger than they were when I was pregnant or breastfeeding).
My periods got heavy, painful and wiped me out for days to weeks at a time. My sex drive started to tank.
And no matter how clean I ate, how much I tried to manage my stress, or how easy or hard I worked out, I just Kept. Gaining. Weight.
I finally shook myself out of my frustrated stupor, and decided to use the tools I use every day to help other women get their hormones balanced and their health back on track and discovered that I did in fact have some serious hormone issues going on.
If you’re in that same place of wondering if there’s something really wrong, but you have yet to find answers I’d like to help you with your first step in the process.

I would argue we are also often blinded to this fact.

60% of thyroid conditions are undiagnosed. The reason has a lot to do with looking in the wrong places and not getting a complete picture of the health of our thyroid.

Our financial health is an important part of the health conversation. According to money and mindset expert Dr. Amanda Barrientez, our relationship to money is also a direct path into the darkest parts of ourselves.

Resilience is something we often view as a strength. It’s that deep-seated commitment to moving forward, to reaching a goal, to not letting life get us down. However, it can also be a crutch that prevents us from healing. On this episode of Rejuvenated Women, I unpack this concept more while touching on some of the darkness the last year has held for many of us. We also have some fun celebrating our 1 year anniversary and 50th episode! To expand this conversation more, check out episode 18 where I discuss the dark side of resilience in depth with the amazing Tracy Litt, and episode 5 where I discuss building a resilience mindset (in a healthy way) with Karen Dean.
You can also find the article that served as inspiration for this conversation from my good friend Dr. Alba Cabral here.

Consistency is one of those things we often feel like we "aren't good at". But the truth is we all have things we are actually consistent with every day. This week I discuss what really drives consistency: commitment.

This week I interview women's transformational life coach Britt Nicole and continue the conversation from episode 31 on healing relationships. Britt shares her story of navigating her husband's PTSD and the healing they both have ultimately found together. Britt brings a topic to conversation that is unique, but refreshing to hear. She is a living example of being able to heal through a toxic marriage, and inspiring her husband to do the same. It's not an easy process, but she shares with us her story and advice for an approach that doesn't equate to cutting someone out of your life.

On this episode we dive deep into what may be missing from your approach to exercise. Yes, motivation may be part of it, but in this conversation we dive deep into why it's important to allow our stress to inform our exercise choices. It's not about the cardio, or the hours in the gym. Sometimes when we're stuck on our health journey, what we really need to is re-evaluate how we're approaching those things that are supposed to be "healthy" and "good" for us.

The plateau is that moment when results stop and frustration ensues. You feel like you're doing all the right things, but still have symptoms, or can't lose weight, or your energy is in the pots. This 8 week series unpacks the steps to trouble shooting the proverbial plateau, and leads you towards having the breakthrough in your health you've been looking for. I personally hit the plateau about three years ago when years of stress, huge commitments as a single mom, doctor and owner of a ever growing wellness practice left me falling apart. I had no energy, kept losing my voice, and my pant sizes just kept going up despite all my knowledge and no matter how much I adhered to strict eating and exercise routines. In this episode I lay out the plan for the next eight weeks of this series, tell my own story, and discuss the first step: the power of our mindset and its importance in allowing you to breakthrough the plateau. Listen as we discuss the four Upper Limit Problems, negative self talk and limiting beliefs, and the importance of rediscovering ourselves inside of where we're at as the first step in moving forward. This series is also being streamed Live every week inside the https://www.facebook.com/groups/trwcommunity/ (Tribe of Rejuvenated Women), so be sure to join us there for more interaction as we work through this conversation.

How do you heal yourself--increase your energy, decrease inflammation and stress and reverse disease? By being proactive and taking control of you. On this week's episode I dive into the three keys that are absolutely necessary to truly take control of your health and life! If you’ve arrived at this podcast episode, chances are you’re like many of the other women I’ve worked with when it comes to your health. You are feeling overwhelmed, frustrated or even hopeless. You have been searching for answers or a solution, but always coming up short. You may be resigned to always having symptoms or that this is just how life is always going to be. And you are starving for motivation. You are starving to be listened to and understood. You are starving for a plan and a solution. And you are starving for hope and the ability to dare to start dreaming. Seven years ago, I found myself in this same place. I was a seemingly healthy 28 year old chiropractor, who had already been on my own healing journey recovering from asthma, allergies and eczema and a life long dependence on medication. I’d reached a point where I was active, medication free and full of life. But at 28 I got another wake up call that told me I was still missing something when it came to my own health. I was a woman who had had a baby 5 weeks too early, and no one could tell me why. I was a woman who spent my sons first week of life in NICU fighting to finally go home. I was a woman who could not lose weight, who had no energy, no sex drive, no motivation, and no answers. What ensued was a seven year transformational process in which I figured out the steps to truly heal my body, get myself back and heal on a deep level, both physically and emotionally. I equate the journey to rediscovering my health to learning how to fly a plane...except unlike the women I now work with, I didn’t take a course, have an instructor or a book. Instead I spent years spinning my wheels putting all of that information together on my own. Now, I’ve been able to take that process and turn it into a blueprint that has helped hundreds of other women take control of their own health and lives. There are three keys to really finding lasting and sustainable success when it comes to healing without drugs or surgery: A holistic approach-must move away from the compartmentalized thinking of western health care Addressing the 6 Pillars of Health--stress/hormones, nutrition/detox, movement, sleep, gut health and immune function, mindset & mindfulness A guide/Mentor
What’s on the other side of being able to put this process into practice is nothing short of amazing. The other side is what have women find results like... Tripling their energy Losing 30 pounds and getting off all their medication Becoming confident and strong Having less anxiety and better mood stability Getting pregnant after years of failed fertility treatment Decreasing inflammation and stress Healing from adrenal fatigue Down four pant sizes in six weeks
When you start on the journey to taking control of your health and life you rediscover dreams and find a quality of life you didn’t think was possible before. You may be one of two women listening to this: Struggling with a chronic health condition for which there has been no hope or future except a lifetime of medications and a mediocre quality of life, and who are looking for a different approach and a better answer. Women who have been on their healing journey for a while but feel like despite doing “all the right things” they have plateaued or are stuck and are feeling frustrated and like nothing will ever change.
You also are someone who the following statements apply to: I know my quality of life is not what it should be due to my health, and I need to make some serious changes to get my health and life back on track. I have a growth mindset and I’m committed to doing the work I know I will have to do to get...
This conversation comes up all the time in my work with women: You don't want to cook two meals but are trying to be healthy; you want to lose weight, but don't like vegetables; your spouse or kids are constantly fighting you on changes and it's overwhelming. This conversation is for YOU. It’s not that vegetables, whole grains or healthy foods taste bad, it’s that you’ve trained your taste buds to think they taste bad. And you have to have patience retraining taste buds to appreciate good food. Nutrition is that which is eaten to sustain life, provide energy and promote the growth and repair of tissues. Most of us live to eat, we do not eat to live. I got a new protein shake recently with absolutely no added sugar that I was excited to test as an option for my Health Rejuvenation Program. I couldn’t wait to try it. I made my shake and immediately thought “bleh”. It tasted bland and I had to choke it down. I realized what a huge difference the one gram of sugar in my current protein powder made, and made me realize I’d have to ease myself into appreciating the new shake. It’s kind of like running a marathon. You don’t decide you’re going to run a marathon and then just go do it with no training or preparation. You have a plan. You gradually increase your mileage and prepare your body to go for the long haul. By the same token, you have to gradually ease your body into eating (and liking) new and healthier foods. Some key things to know and try when making transitions with picky eaters: If healthy eating is new , mix the new healthier food with the previous unhealthy food in increasing amounts until you’re getting 100% of the healthy option. This is the approach I am using with my new protein powder. I’ve also seen this work for parents getting kids off of dairy and gluten (when their kids favorite meal is macaroni and cheese), making the move from why to whole grains, and moving from many processed foods to the real thing. We have to retrain our taste buds (which tend to recognize the heavily processed food as “normal”) to recognize and enjoy the real food! Smoothies are a great place to “hide” things like spinach or kale to get some raw veggies in them. Don’t make two meals. Dinner is dinner. Lunch is lunch. Do your best to include something the picky eater does like that’s on the healthy spectrum. Encourage them to branch out and try new things at least once or twice a week. Approach changes gradually and with patience. The day my 7 year old told me he loved raw kale and asked for seconds and then thirds, I nearly fell out of my chair. The more you encourage, emulate, include and incorporate the picky eaters into the process, the more you’ll find breakthroughs. Don’t try to completely rock the boat all at once. Just start making small changes and the rest will follow. Everyone should be on a quality whole food multivitamin, but ESPECIALLY picky eaters. For guidance on this see my video on what supplements you should be taking. Be wary of using food as a reward. This perpetuates the brain cascade reward system into identifying taste and treats with certain emotions. Instead use things like quality time, a favorite game or activity, an outing etc.
When you start to approach healthy eating, getting your vegetables in and making better food choices like running a marathon, you will find you start to really enjoy healthy food. You’ll even start to crave vegetables and whole grains. And, you’ll have less bloating, inflammation and far more energy, all of which make the choices easier to make. If you’re listening to this and thinking “this all sounds well and good Dr. Alex, but I’m already overwhelmed and I don’t know how to take on one more thing even if it means I’d start feeling better” then listen up. I’m not going to sugar coat it, finding the motivation and fortitude to make and sustain lifestyle changes, to get healthier and finally start eating the way you know you should, can be lonely at...
On this episode I tackle the ever present sugar addiction so many of us struggle with. This goes beyond just having a sweet tooth! Join me as I share the three keys to really breaking the sugar craving cycle and kicking the habit once and for all. How do you finally kick your sugar habit? It’s about awareness and commitment. I want to give you some facts to think about: The Average American consumes 152 pounds of sugar each year compared to 22 pounds a year in 1900… Sugar is connected to obesity… It’s also heavily connected to the insulin resistance and sluggish livers we see in 60% of the US population It increases inflammation, rates and severity of disease and ultimately makes us sick. And it can be really difficult to reduce or completely eliminate from our diet The first time I decided to go off sugar I was 17. What I considered “a strange hippy doctor” told me I’d feel better if I did. So I decided to try it. Two days in I was explaining that I was going to get off sugar to a friend, and as soon as I was done, they offered me a sugar covered donut bite from Dominos with glazed icing dip. Which I ate without giving two thoughts until it was in my mouth. I had no idea how deep the sugar addiction ran, or how present it was in my diet until I stopped to think about it. I felt like a hypocrite and failure, and realized that if I was going to actually be successful in doing this, I needed to wake up and pay attention. It was lonely, people thought I was weird, But I found I did start to feel better when I’d gotten off sugar a while. I also found it was really easy to get back on it. I equate it somewhat to a high level olympic athlete. If they are going to succeed they have to be meticulous in how they care for the body and train. They have to be patient. And they have to do the work. We don’t all have to be Olympic athletes, but when we approach our own health as an Olympic athlete would approach their training regime, we make progress much more quickly and see results we probably never expected. I’ve spent the better part of the last 16 years eating very little refined sugar. And I want to share with you the three things you really need to know and consider if you’re serious about kicking your sugar habit to the curb. Sugar is a highly addictive substance. Studies have shown it has a similar reward effect on your brain to alcohol or drugs. Because of this, getting off it can be challenging. You will have cravings, and maybe even withdrawal symptoms. Sugar doesn’t just apply to candy, chocolate or ice cream. There are sugars hidden in ALL of our food. And nutrition labeling can be very misleading. On top of that which is added to our foods, our most popular foods like white potatoes, rice, pasta and other simple carbohydrates break down to sugar in your body. They give a quick spike in your blood sugar and then you crash, or are hungry again. Truly getting past the sugar habit takes diligence, patience and grace for yourself (and others). It’s not going to happen overnight, just like getting to the Olympics doesn’t happen overnight.
When I was finally able to get off sugar for longterm (6 years) when I was 20, and again 2 years ago, I discovered that I felt amazing. I had stable energy through my day. I wasn’t as hungry, especially at night, and I lost weight and slept better. When you’re able to really successfully transition your diet, your palate and your eating habits, amazing things wait for you on the other side. I also recognize that it can be daunting, lonely and difficult to find the motivation to take your health in your own hands, and deprive yourself of something you’re literally emotionally attached to. Because of this, I’ve created a week long workshop that addresses both our sugar addiction AND the emotional attachment and draws that come with that addiction. I call it the Sweet Fix to Overwhelm. On Monday the 4th I will be hosting this workshop Live inside...

On this episode I take you on a journey to cultivate mental fortitude and position yourself for growth during social distancing and the world pandemic, so that you come out of it transformed into an even more powerful version of yourself. I cover: ~What the spending trends right now tell us about the world mindset ~Tools for helping you overcome those mindset blocks ~Granting yourself permission to feel, and acknowledge those feelings ~Questions to ask yourself: what are you trying to escape (feelings, the situation, things out of your control)? Who do you need to become to have what you feel you lack? What is the dream--pandemic or not? I also provide five tips for things you can start doing to cultivate mental fortitude and a growth mindset during this time of isolation and social distancing: 1. Give yourself permission to have your feelings (loneliness, frustration, anxiety, fear etc)...but don't wallow in them. 2. Get creative with how you express and give love. 3.

On this episode I am joined by the incredible Tracy Litt for a conversation on deep transformational healing and the dark side of resiliency. This is the conversation that can literally transform your life, so grab some paper and join us as we discuss: What the dark side of resilience is and why it's so important for high performing women to consider. How to connect with the little girl inside of us who holds us back in our passion and purpose until we do. The ugly side of female leadership and how to transform that to really step into our power. How your mindset and ability to transform the dark side of resilience impacts your health in a major way (we're talking life or death). Where and how to start (and continue) engaging in this conversation.

On this episode, I'm joined for a fun and inspiring conversation on how to find your balance and the silver lining inside of the massive changes we are all experiencing as a result of the global pandemic we are all facing with my longtime friend and fellow chiropractor and wellness doctor, Dr. Casen DeMaria. Dr. Casen DeMaria gets to live out her dream job everyday as a chiropractor. As a registered massage therapist, Dr. Casen knew she wanted to continue to add value to the individuals she was helping each day, and enrolled at Life University where she received her Doctor of Chiropractic. Since joining The Drugless Doctors, Dr. Casen actively pursues new ways to reach and educate the community about the benefits of chiropractic, drugless care, and breast thermography, which includes successful partnerships with local businesses and women’s organizations. The insights she continues to learn have been subjects of her peer-reviewed journals. When she is not helping people you can find her spending time with Dr. Anthony adventuring to new places and bike riding. Through the course of our conversation we discuss the beauty that has emerged inside the chaos, how to find the joy in balance inside what we're all facing, and share our laughter and unique perspectives on how to find an attitude of gratitude during this time. You can learn more about Dr. Casen by connecting with her via email drcasen@druglessdoctors.com or by visiting her website, www.druglessdoctors.com Thank you for tuning in to Rejuvenated Women: Impeccable Health for High Performing Women where we provide you with the tools, information and inspiration you need to transform from overwhelmed, overworked and overweight to vibrant energetic and on fire!

On this episode I lay out the 5 simple steps that have been instrumental in reducing the overwhelm in my own life, and in that of countless women I've worked with. Without this foundation, I would never have been able to do what I did this week--take 2 days off from work and life, one for my son and one for myself while we fought off a cold--without the world imploding, stress tripling and utter chaos ensuing. Join me as I discuss: The necessary mindset shifts that have to occur to allow you to build a schedule and life that breeds productivity and not overwhelm. How to set up your day to day activities and life so that the unforeseen can be handled without extra stress. How to bring mindfulness to your day and the questions to ask yourself to start making lasting changes in your commitments. How block scheduling breeds freedom, and not micromanaging.
In addition, there is a free worksheet that walks you through the 5 steps I discuss in this episode and which can be downloaded here: www.dralexridley.com/freedownload It's Valentine's Day.

Today I break down goal setting for women, taking a very different approach from the SMART goal rhetoric that permeates goal setting conversations these days. Today we combine the idea of DUMB goals, as thought up by Brandon Burchard, with my SLIM Goal feminine approach. This is not the goal setting you're used to. DUMB Goals stand for Dream, Uplifting, Methods and Behaviors. As Brandon explains in his video on DUMB goals, they help you get connected to a big dream and purpose before you start getting down to the methods and behaviors you need to cultivate to get to that dream. Taking this a step further, I lay out my SLIM goal acronym for goal setting: Sustainable Life-giving Intentional Mindful When we are able to approach our goals from both dreams and intentions, methods and sustainability, the world becomes our oyster and those dreams become attainable.

There you’ll have access to free trainings, a community of like minded women from around the world and even more information, inspiration and motivation to transform your health and become vibrant, energetic and on fire. Be sure to check out our website, follow us on Facebook and Linked In and Instagram.
