Did you know that  overtraining/undereating and and the exercise/food balance can impact your menstrual cycle, bone health, and mental health?

Especially for women who's body has just gone through an intense, and often traumatic, experience like pregnancy and giving birth this can really have a huge impact on your health.
You're seemingly doing "everything right" yet feel like you're struggling all the time and even your menstrual cycle can get messed up.

RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport) is much more common in postpartum women  than you might think and Allison Yamamoto has very kindly agreed  to come onto my little show to talk about this.

We talk about the causes of RED-S.
How society's pressures on women can cause women to, unknowingly, be sabotaging their own health.
How a "I have to do everything" approach is actually holding you back and impacting your health.
How a workaholic lifestyle, which most postpartum women have (when's the last time YOU had a break?) leads to issues
And, of course, we discuss the solution!

Allison is absolutely amazing and I have no doubt you'll be very happy that you listened to this episode.
