From Your Center

Certified Life & Fertility Coach Abbe Feder shares her personal experience with infertility and her professional insights as she now coaches and holds the hands & hearts of others going through an infertility journey.

1 in 8 couples struggle to conceive and 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage.

This is A LOT of women.

We create space to decrease the stigma of these realities.

We get into the intense emotions of infertility, the relationship challenges and lack of control of this type of journey, so those on this path feel seen and we all have a greater understanding & empathy for this very common experience.

Finally, Abbe gives some great concrete ideas about how to help & support a friend going through any difficult situation.

We are joined by Anna Petras, Nurse Practitioner & Holistic Health Consultant as we explore the Endocrine System, Women’s Hormones, and Perimenopause.

Grab your notebooks.

Anna provides a fantastic overview of what hormones are, how imbalance manifests as brain fog, fatigue & menstrual irregularities, and the rarely discussed phenomenon of the Cortisol Steal.

We explore how the environment, nutrition, food choices, and the stress of modern life contributes to hormone health (or lack thereof).

We ask questions about hormones across the lifespan and perimenopause, and explore a refreshing perspective to aging as the embodiment of wisdom.

Thank you Anna for sharing your expertise & knowledge!

Lea pulls back the veil on the U.S. Healthcare System. She shares some shocking revelations from 10 years in the trenches and behind closed exam rooms as a family medicine nurse practitioner.

We take on the pharmaceutical industry, electronic health records, the insurance industry, and question the lack of adoption of current scientific evidence within the traditional practice model.

We ask questions about where profits are being made on patients, why patients aren’t actually getting better, how writing prescriptions became the norm, and how much NPs actually make for that quick 15 minute visit.

It’s a rare and honest look from the inside.

Thanks always for being here - we’re so grateful to explore these topics and have these conversations together. Please send us a message about your experience inside the U.S. healthcare system.

For more information and further explanation of the Endocannabinoid System and its profound effects on health, check out this video by renowned expert Dr. Rachel Knox: www.realchangewellness.com/drknox

Noticed the sales pitch from every gym, supplement company and legging brand promising a “NEW YOU” in 2023?

This marketing & messaging has been driving Adriana & Lea crazy for years and so today on the podcast we tear down this idea that you are so utterly wrong you MUST buy some new product or service & throw out that “old 2022 version” of yourself.

We explore why New Year’s Resolutions don’t work…

We ask questions to discover what it looks like to start this new year (or any potential change) from a place of wholeness, completeness, and inherent goodness….and why that actually works!

We get curious about how to create intentions and goals without shame, guilt & punishing ourselves.

If you, too, are sick of every advertisement trying to fix you, listen in.

Jesus & Buddha walk into a bar... We share personal stories of our religious and spiritual beliefs, we learn new things about each other, and find there are parts of ourselves and our experiences that aren’t typically discussed unless explicitly asked.

We confirm the questioning & curiosity that guide this podcast. Wondering about the universe and trying to understand the greater world around us has been driving us since we were kids.

Ringleader of Good Enough Moms, Sara Moon, helps us kick off the holiday season by helping all of us take permission to delegate, chill, and “break up with perfectionism.”

Sara lives in Denver, CO with her two teenage daughters, husband, dad, and 3 dogs. Her passion is coaching moms to demand help & delegate.

We explore the pressures of parenting, how to involve others, and let go a little knowing the kids will be ok.

As we head into the last month of the year and all the busy-ness that is December, we create space 

to pause,

reflect,

and explore 

how do we look back and assess our progress over the last year?  

We wrestle with defining markers of success; those that are internally created from our values vs traditional external markers like money & material accomplishment. 

We get curious about how productivity, output and “doing” each year influences our ideas and feelings of self-worth in work and in family life. 

We hope this episode gives you a new question or two  to consider when evaluating your year and your success. Because no doubt, you are here, you are worthy, you are a success, and you have been rippling forth amazing things in 2022 whether or not they are tangible yet.

We explore the evidence for diverse health benefits of a gratitude practice and how noticing glimmers in our bodies can shift our nervous system states. #yayscience

We share personal moments & stories that profoundly shaped us. We get curious about how to notice, witness, and appreciate in a more expanded and embodied way.

As we head into the holiday season, we hope this episode provides insights for stepping into moments of gratitude and the ease, joy, and release that come with its experience. 

Finally, a gigantic expression of gratitude for YOU for all your support of this podcast thus far—THANK YOU!
