    ABOUT THE GUEST

    Christie grew up on an island in Lake Erie, called Put-in-Bay and is a fifth generation Island Girl. While it was a beautiful childhood, filled with walks in the woods, swims in the Lake and a small community that always looked out for her, it was also a heavily polluted Lake Erie during the time of her youth. She was raised drinking the family’s well water and also eating Lake Erie perch and walleye. Processed food was easy to come by, and store during the long winters, and at the time, items like Velveeta “cheese,” canned vegetables and white bread were part of her family’s staples. 

     

    Over twenty years ago, while Christie was teaching elementary school and raising her two daughters, Christie became ill, went into premature menopause at age 29, and was chronically tired. It was discovered she had toxic levels of mercury in her body. Her doctor’s words were “You grew up in a cesspool.” She began the long process of detoxing from the heavy metal and around the same time, her oldest, Anna became very ill. It was discovered that her ten-year-old was allergic to many foods, preservatives, and colorants. Even fluoride! Something had to change. Christie began researching and learned the TRUTH about what is in our water, food, cleaning products and finally, body and skin care. The journey toward better health began. She replaced all her household items with more natural things, including her skin and body care. However, after years of buying these products, she realized some of them still held questionable ingredients. She recalled how her family lived on the island for all those generations, living naturally. Before the onslaught of plastics, before the Lake was polluted. When people canned their own garden vegetable and when milk was actually milk. When the meat that was eaten was hormone-free, along with the eggs, too. The islanders lived on the island all those years without the toxic products. She recalled a medicinal salve her family had called Gramma’s Salve. It was made by her Great-Grandmother, whom Christie was named after. Whatever happened to it? On her search for better skin care and natural remedies, Christie gathered the ingredients for this ancient salve. One winter night in 2013, she made it and that familiar healing scent came back to her. Using lavender from her gardens, this gave her confidence to make other products, as well. The best part? She could control all the ingredients. At first, she shared the remedies with family, teachers and her students. The students were her cheerleaders and they convinced her to sell the organic concoctions. So, she did! Christie left teaching to focus full-time on the business almost 8 years ago. Many small batches later, Your Only Earth was born and now has over 30 products, living on the mainland near Cleveland, Ohio.

    ABOUT THE GUEST

     

    Cathy is the founder of CoolYourSweats, a company on a mission to help 'hot and sweaty women' get their sleep back. She founded the company after her own experience with night sweats and trying to find the right sleepwear to help her sleep without waking up soggy and sleep-deprived. As her night sweats continued, she was becoming increasingly concerned about her overall health and well-being due to the constant lack of sleep. She wondered how something so small and insignificant could cause her so much exhaustion and discomfort. When her night sweats didn't go away, she finally realized she had to do something about them. She swapped out her old polyester nightgown for a cotton one, thinking that that would make the difference. Unfortunately, there was no change in her sleep comfort whatsoever. While she searched for specialty sleepwear for night sweats, she was dismayed by the lack of choice. To her, it was another example of how underserved the menopause market was. But, it also presented her with an opportunity to help women like herself get their sleep back. She brought a unique perspective to the sleepwear world. Cathy has been writing about green and natural building materials since 2009 and through her work she'd discovered how effective natural building materials are for moderating heat and moisture within interior spaces. She figured if natural materials could do it for interior spaces, they could do it for work for humans too. That idea helped her to look at many different materials and after a lot of testing, she chose a unique blend of hemp and organic cotton to make her sleepwear. Along her sleepwear journey, Cathy discovered that there is not enough information available to help women who suffer from hot flashes and night sweats choose the best fabrics to keep them comfortable. She now advises people and media organizations on how to dress women with hot flashes.

  • #099 - The Role of Thermography in Breast Cancer Screening

    On This Episode

     

    In this episode, Dr. Casen DeMaria, a chiropractor from The Drugless Doctors, explains the benefits of thermography as a radiation-free method for evaluating breast health. Rather than focusing solely on structure, thermography assesses body function by detecting potential disease and inflammation through temperature evaluation. Dr. Casen emphasizes the importance of seeking out healthcare providers who embrace alternative methods and take a holistic approach to wellness. She also underscores the advantages of forming partnerships with other professionals, such as nutritionists or chiropractors, to provide support and accountability on the path to optimal health.

    About the Guest

     

    Heather Odendaal is an accomplished Canadian entrepreneur, brand builder, and event producer whose experience in corporate environments inspired her to create and co-found WNORTH, a global organization dedicated to the development of women mid-career on a trajectory towards senior executive leadership. Prior to launching her organization, Heather was employed as a sales executive for a Fortune 500 company. There, she noticed the lack of women in senior executive positions, and she and her husband decided to take matters into their own hands and launch WNORTH. What originally started as an annual conference in 2015, WNORTH now connects top female business leaders in corporate, public, and entrepreneurial sectors through The Members' Club, which provides women with development opportunities, including workshops, leadership masterminds, events, and courses, as well as a 100% virtual forum of online content and more. WNORTH also holds Chapter Cities throughout North America and the U.K., where members can network and uplift each other through meet-ups, group exercises, and activities. When the pandemic hit in 2020, Heather and her team quickly pivoted to create virtual experiences for their members and conference attendees. They are hard at work highlighting and solving the problem of the insufficient support structures in North America for women in the workforce, which was even more pronounced over the last year and a half. WNORTH was named Innovative Business of the Year 2021 at the Whistler Excellence Awards, and the WNORTH Virtual Conference was recognized by BizBash as one of the top 10 Most Innovative Meetings 2021. Odendaal was included in BizBash's 2021 and 2020 roundup of Canada's Most Influential Event Pros, she has worked on some of the world's largest and most prominent events, including the Whistler Film Festival, Crankworx Mountain Bike Festival, and the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. She is consistently featured in a variety of top-tier publications and podcasts, and sits on the Forbes Business Council. In her spare time, you can find her judging local food & wine competitions, paddleboarding on the local Whistler lakes in the summer and skiing Whistler Blackcomb mountain in the winter with her husband Mike and their two children.
