We are back talking all things serious and silly with another episode of the Women’s Maximum Fitness Podcast! Mom Chat edition! It’s been over a month since we recorded as Abbie’s family was all sick! 

In this episode #80 Abbie and I once again lay out everything controversial. Starting right off the bat with the story of John Money who is labeled the first man to perform gender reassignment surgery. Tied to this we talk about Abigail Schrier’s book “Irreversible Damage” where she investigates the transgender craze plaguing our teenage children. To be clear we  are not dismissing the reality of transgender people or their pain or struggle transitioning after years of therapy. This is about how easily children can decide their gender and go through with a hormonal transition when they can’t even legally vote, drive, drink, get married, etc. 

Once again the topic of abortion comes up, with all the “women’s marches” going on recently all over the country. Yes we believe abortion is murder.

Then enter the topic of endocrine disrupters, with a special “guest appearance” from our friend and holistic NP Tara Woodland to share in a voice message about thermal receipt paper. Oh the BPA!! Don’t touch your receipts. And if you do don’t use hand sanitizer. Avoid plastic too. And definitely don’t heat it as it breaks down the plastic which leeches the BPA. 

Fourth is the topic of postpartum depression. This does get a little dark as Abbie and I personally share how horrifically hormones can mess with the mental state of of the new mom. It’s normal but also necessary to know when you need to get counseling or medication. If you’re experiencing this please seek help from a medical professional. 

And finally we touch on the state of the economy with gas prices, businesses closing and reducing their hours  of operation etc. Let’s go Brandon!!  

If there’s a message of hope in this all it’s that we are gently reminded how God is in control and really none of these things have any bearing on the final outcome for us Christian sinners falling short every day. Keep fighting the good fight but come quickly Lord Jesus!
