September 15, 2020226: How to Address Pelvic Floor Dysfunction and Bladder Leakage Naturally w/ MaryEllen Reider
If You Are Concerned About Your Pelvic Floor Health You Should:
Look out for early signs of pelvic floor inefficiency such as bladder leaks and pain during intercourse
Seek out a doctor or specialist to help you if you feel as though something is not quite right
Find natural solutions that work for your specific pelvic floor issues

At least 1 in 2 women have some level of struggle with their pelvic floor throughout their lifetime. Despite these staggering numbers, pelvic floor dysfunction and urinary incontinence is something you do not hear about often. MaryEllen Reider is on a mission to remove the taboo from this topic and open up the conversation about regaining pelvic floor health naturally.

Dismissing Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Myths
MaryEllen wants you to know that just because something is common, it doesn’t make it normal. Cofounder of YarLap, a wellness device used to treat urinary incontinence and improve sexual performance and experience through muscle control, MaryEllen is here to set the record straight about pelvic pain and pelvic floor dysfunction.

The Importance Of Talking About Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
The traditional medical system has normalized pelvic pain or dysfunction, and it is time to open up the conversation around early warning signs, symptoms, and how your pelvic floor muscles work so that you can gain the tools you need to support your body. Your pelvic floor muscles affect everything from your orgasms to bladder leakage and back pain, so it is important to understand this complex and internal group of muscles. When your pelvic floor muscles are strong, the rest of your body can function optimally.

Your Body Knows Best
MaryEllen stresses the importance of seeking out a doctor when you feel that something isn’t quite right. If you know what to look out for, you can enter your 40’s, 50’s, 60’s and beyond with a strong, stable, and efficient pelvic floor. Everything from the difficulty of Kegels to pregnancy and peeing yourself is on the table today as MaryEllen breaks the stigma and opens up the pelvic floor conversation. By providing answers to your basic questions and guiding you through the process, MaryEllen believes that most women can solve their pelvic floor dysfunction with ease and grace, naturally.

September 08, 2020224: How to Finally Let Go of Emotional Eating and Self-Sabotage w/ Natasha Allen
In order to stop emotional eating and self-sabotage, you must:
Take the time to check in with yourself, truly sense hunger cues from your body, and slow down when eating
Provide yourself with options other than eating to break your unconscious habit
Look to what is actually causing emotions in your life such as stress and anxiety and heal those from the ground up

Have you been using food as a way to distract or numb your unpleasant emotions or unmet needs? Our world feels like a scary movie, and it is creating a lot of emotions around eating. If you are struggling with food right now, you are not alone, and traveling fitness professional and coach Natasha Allen is here today to help you embrace mindful eating and stop self-sabotaging.

Ending Emotional Eating Once and For All With Natasha Allen
Natasha wants to provide you with nonjudgemental recommendations so that you can break the cycle of emotional eating and start winning at life. After 20 years in the corporate world, Natasha broke free of her limiting beliefs and gained her confidence by failing forward. Passionate about helping women sit down and deal with their emotions, and ultimately repair their relationship with food and their body, Natasha is the expert you need to hear from if you are looking to tap into your inner dialogue and heal the disconnect between your mind and your body.

How to Stop Giving Into Your Cravings
Instead of giving in to your cravings or subconsciously eating way more than you need, Natasha has some simple steps that you can take to start analyzing the role food is playing in your life. It is time to stop reaching for that bag of chips and start truly understanding what is going on at the root of your emotions so that you can start serving your body with things that it actually needs.

Why Mindful Eating Is So Important
Our busy, overwhelmed society has us shoveling our food in a few minutes flat, grazing all day, or forgetting to eat entirely until we binge eat everything. This is not the way our bodies are meant to function optimally. By taking the time to sit and deal with your emotions, you can discover what your inner needs truly are and start to meet them without food. Emotional and binge eating can often be used to distract or numb from things we don’t want to deal with, and it is only by kindly questioning yourself that you can start to unveil your hidden patterns.

August 25, 2020220: Master Your Menstrual Cycle and Optimize Your Fertility w/ Lisa Hendrickson-Jack
The three most important ways to master your cycle and optimize your fertility are:
Understand the side effects of birth control and the fact that the pill is most likely only covering up your issues, not fixing them
Start tracking your menstrual cycle to understand any underlying issues or red flags you should be aware of
Provide your body with everything it needs to increase progesterone production, improve your ovulation and protect your overall health

Time and time again, I see the crazy side effects of the birth control pill, irregular menstrual cycles, and out of whack hormones in women. Many women are never told about the integral role that their menstrual cycles play not only in their fertility but in their overall health and happiness as well. Lisa Hendrickson-Jack is here today to dismiss these myths and teach you how to chart your menstrual cycle and use an evidence-based approach to fertility awareness and menstrual cycle optimization.

Since beginning to track her period at the age of 18, Lisa has discovered the amazing power charting your cycle can have as a natural birth control, fertility monitor, and as a sign of your overall health. Lisa’s book, The Fifth Vital Sign, dives into all of this important information, and she is here today to empower you to start understanding what is going on in your own body.

Your Menstrual Cycle Is About Way More Than Having Babies
Your menstrual cycle is a key indicator of what is going on in your body. Today Lisa is breaking down what is considered a normal menstrual cycle and period, common symptoms or issues you should be looking out for, and giving us a real talk when it comes to hormonal contraceptives so that you can start to understand how your body works. Everything from overcoming period pain, to the long-standing implications of birth control and when you should start to take your fertility seriously, are on the table today as we dive into the mighty power that is your menstrual cycle.

Why You Need To Value Your Cycle as an Indicator for Overall Health
Understanding how your body works is critical to your longevity, happiness, and fertility. If you are feeling alone in trying to figure out your menstrual cycle, or your doctor keeps giving you the run around when it comes to birth control, and you know that there is something out there better for you, this episode is your first step into self-discovery and mastering your menstrual cycle.
