This conversation with Nadya Pecherskaya, holistic nutritionist and wellness entrepreneur, gave us a huge dose of relief in all forms. It is no coincidence that she created a beautiful CBD oil company that does just that. From growing up in Russia in a high-stress environment to pursuing a holistic lifestyle to starting her own company, we are completely blown away by her endurance. 

 

Topics We Discuss: 

• CBD Oil
• Mental Health
• Holistic Health
• Trauma

 

In the Episode, We Learn:

• How growing up in Russia influenced her life.
• Her experience with growing up with eating disorders.
• How she realized her childhood influenced a cortisol addiction.
• Studied finance in college before going to nutrition school.
• The rock bottom she went through that led her to trying CBD for the first time.
• What cannabinoids are and what they do to you physiologically.
• The Benefits of CBD: improve sleep and reduce anxiety, stress, pain, and PMS symptoms (moodiness, cramps, etc.).
• CBD helps regulate your hormones and helps you manage cortisol and melatonin as well as serotonin levels.
• CBD decreases inflammation in the body and works on the transmitters in your brain so you feel less pain long term.
• The biggest lesson she learned after starting her business was making sure to set your retail price correctly - do your numbers ladies.
