My Health My Way

If you've lived with endometriosis for years, it can begin to feel like more than a diagnosis. Pain shapes your decisions. Symptoms dictate your days. And without even realising it, endometriosis can start to become part of how you see yourself.

But who are you without the pain? Who are you without endometriosis?

In this episode, Sarah sits down with Dr. Jennifer Schlueter, a trauma-informed certified hypnotherapist, breathwork and EFT facilitator who holds a PhD in spiritual healing, to explore the mind-body connection and the role our subconscious patterns, emotions and sense of identity may play in the healing journey.

Jennifer shares how her own experiences with hypnotherapy led her into this work, and discusses her approach to supporting women with endometriosis through hypnosis and breathwork. She shares the patterns she has observed in her work, from constantly pushing through and struggling to ask for help, to disconnection from the body, creativity and what she describes as emotional and ancestral patterns. Pasted text

Together, Sarah and Jennifer explore what can happen when pain becomes familiar, why reconnecting with the body matters, and how changing the story you tell yourself may influence the choices you make moving forward. Sarah also shares her own experience of joining endometriosis support groups after her diagnosis, feeling as though she'd been handed a life sentence, and eventually realising that she needed to stop allowing the diagnosis to define what she believed was possible for her.

They also discuss why emotional healing doesn't have to replace physical healing. Jennifer believes mind, body and spirit work together, while Sarah brings the conversation back to the physical foundations she works with every day, including nutrition, lifestyle, the gut and the wider internal environment.

This is a thought-provoking episode for the woman who has spent years fighting her body and is ready to explore another question: what might change if you stopped seeing your body as the enemy and started learning how to listen to it instead?

What You'll Learn

• How chronic pain and endometriosis can begin to influence your sense of identity
• What hypnotherapy is and how Jennifer uses it to explore subconscious patterns
• The emotional and ancestral patterns Jennifer observes in her work with women
• Why constantly pushing through, doing more and struggling to rest may deepen disconnection from the body
• The relationship between chronic pain, the nervous system and feeling safe in your body
• Why Sarah believes shifting her beliefs about her diagnosis was an important part of her own healing journey
• Why emotional work and physical foundations don't have to be an either/or approach
• Simple ways Jennifer encourages women to reconnect with themselves through rest, creativity, breathwork and body awareness

It helps more women discover conversations that challenge the idea that their diagnosis has to define their future, and reminds them that there may be more pieces of the healing puzzle still worth exploring.

If you've got a cupboard full of supplements, tried every "anti-inflammatory" diet, and are still wondering why you don't feel better… this conversation might be exactly what you need.

In this episode, Sarah sits down with functional nutrition coach and metabolism specialist Staci Lynch to unpack why lasting health often isn't found in the next supplement, diet, test or biohack, but in the foundational things we tend to overlook.

Staci shares her own journey through endometriosis, infertility, severe gut issues and losing and regaining 100 pounds multiple times, and how those experiences ultimately changed the way she approaches health and healing.

Together, they explore why women can become so focused on finding the one root cause or perfect protocol that they lose sight of what their body needs every single day: nourishment, movement, sleep, hydration, strength, nervous system regulation and consistency.

And perhaps most importantly, they talk about how to actually make those changes without becoming completely overwhelmed, including Staci's simple "Easy + One" approach to building sustainable habits one step at a time.

This is an empowering episode for the woman who's tired of guessing, overwhelmed by conflicting health advice, and ready to stop chasing quick fixes and start building a foundation her body can actually thrive on.

What You'll Learn

• Why the basics of healing aren't "sexy", but they're often what move the needle most
• How Staci's own journey with endometriosis, infertility, gut issues and weight struggles shaped her approach to health
• Why there is rarely one single root cause, perfect diet or magic supplement
• The foundational role of nutrition, movement, hydration, sleep and strength training
• How chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation can interfere with progress
• Why understanding the why behind lifestyle changes makes them easier to sustain
• Staci's "Easy + One" method for creating healthy habits without trying to overhaul your entire life at once

If this episode helped you realise that healing doesn't have to mean doing more, subscribe to My Health My Way and leave a review. It helps more women cut through the noise, understand their bodies, and discover a more sustainable approach to whole-body healing.

If you've ever been told "this is just something you'll have to live with," this conversation may completely change the way you think about healing.

In this episode, Sarah sits down with clairvoyant somatic healer and psychologist Alexandra Godwell, who has spent more than 35 years helping women uncover the subconscious, emotional, and inherited patterns that shape their health.

After navigating her own stage IV cancer diagnosis and choosing to approach healing differently, Alexandra shares the powerful mindset shifts that transformed not only her health, but the way she understands the body's incredible capacity to heal.

Together, they explore why so many women unknowingly override their body's signals, how chronic illness often reflects years of accumulated stress, disconnection, and inherited patterns, and why healing requires more than simply changing your diet or taking supplements. They discuss the role of nervous system regulation, emotional healing, self-worth, ancestral imprints, feminine wisdom, and learning to trust the intelligence of your own body.

This is an empowering conversation for the woman who refuses to believe her diagnosis is the end of her story... and is ready to explore what may be possible when she begins working with her body instead of against it.

What You'll Learn

• Why your diagnosis does not have to define your future
• How subconscious and inherited patterns may influence chronic illness
• The connection between nervous system dysregulation, stress, and women's health
• Why healing requires looking beyond nutrition and supplements alone
• How emotional patterns like grief, resentment, people-pleasing and self-worth can impact physical health
• Why reconnecting with your body's natural rhythms is essential for long-term healing
• Practical ways to cultivate more joy, gratitude and safety to support your body's healing response

If you've been focusing on supplements, protocols, or cutting everything out… but still feel stuck, this episode will shift how you see healing.

In this episode, Sarah sits down with Functional Nutrition Counselor and Registered Nurse Katie Kirklin to explore what true root-cause healing looks like beyond the noise of diet culture and quick fixes.

Katie shares her personal journey from growing up in a weight-loss focused environment to navigating her own health challenges — including gut issues, anxiety, and hormonal imbalances — and how those experiences led her to functional nutrition. From reversing cervical dysplasia naturally to understanding the deeper drivers behind symptoms, this conversation brings a grounded, practical perspective to healing.

Together, they unpack why so many women feel overwhelmed trying to "fix everything," and instead, how focusing on foundations like sleep, digestion, blood sugar, and daily habits can create real, lasting change.

This is an empowering episode for the woman who feels like she's tried everything… and is ready to simplify her healing, reconnect with her body, and rebuild from the ground up.

What You'll Learn

• Why small, consistent changes matter more than doing everything at once
• The concept of "patching the holes" and how it applies to healing complex conditions
• How diet culture and under-eating can quietly drive long-term health issues
• The impact of alcohol, caffeine, and blood sugar balance on hormones and energy
• Why sleep, digestion ("pooping"), and blood sugar are non-negotiable foundations
• How toxins and everyday exposures (like plastics and coffee pods) can disrupt hormones
• Why foundations often create massive shifts — even before functional testing

Ever wondered if what you're experiencing with endometriosis is "normal"… or if there's something more going on?

In this episode, Sarah is put on the spot as Alana asks the exact questions women are sending through every single day, from changing symptoms over time, to fertility fears, surgery outcomes, weight gain, stress, sleep, and everything in between.

This is a real, honest conversation that cuts through the noise and addresses what women are actually confused about when it comes to endometriosis.

You'll hear Sarah break down why symptoms can shift over time, why surgery doesn't always resolve deeper issues, and why a whole-body approach is essential if you're wanting long-term change, not just temporary relief.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed, dismissed, or unsure what's actually driving your symptoms… this episode will help you start connecting the dots.

What You'll Learn:

• Can endometriosis symptoms change as you age?

• Why surgery doesn't always fix fatigue, bloating, or brain fog

• The truth about fertility and endometriosis

• How quickly you can expect to see improvements when addressing root causes

• The role of stress and cortisol in symptom flares

• Why sleep is non-negotiable for healing

• Whether supplements are actually necessary (and when they're not)

• Is weight gain really caused by endometriosis?

• How toxins and environmental exposures impact your hormones and symptoms

• Can endometriosis still affect you after menopause?

• Why a diagnosis is just the beginning — not the solution

If you've been told heavy periods, acne, fatigue, or pain are "just normal," this episode will change how you see your body.

In this episode of My Health My Way, Sarah and Alana sit down with Lisa Tyers, FDN-P, to explore how adenomyosis and endometriosis are rarely isolated conditions, and why true healing requires looking at the whole body, not just the uterus.

Lisa shares her personal journey with adenomyosis, years of dismissal, and how functional diagnostic testing helped her finally connect the dots between gut health, minerals, detox pathways, inflammation, and hormones.

What You'll Learn:

• Why "common" symptoms are not the same as normal

• How gut health, liver detox, minerals, and inflammation influence cycles

• The generational patterns behind endo & adeno (and why it's not just genetics)

• Why hysterectomy isn't a true cure for adenomyosis

• How mineral imbalances, dehydration, and constipation quietly drive symptoms

• Why healing requires a team approach, not one practitioner or one supplement

This episode is a powerful reminder that your body isn't broken, it's communicating. You just need the right lens to listen.

If you've been told endometriosis is something you just "manage" with pills or surgery, and deep down you know there has to be more.... this conversation will land.

In this episode, Sarah sits down with FDN Functional Health Practitioner Jessica Rauscher to unpack what functional healing can look like when symptoms don't make sense on paper. Jessica shares her personal journey through chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and endometriosis, and the root drivers she discovered underneath it all: mold, parasites, Lyme/co-infections, toxic burden, and hidden stress.

Together, they explore why many women feel like their hormones are "the problem" (when hormones are often the messengers), why sequence matters (good info in the wrong order can keep you stuck), and how healing can become overcomplicated when you're living in fight-or-flight and "paralysis by analysis."

This is an empowering episode for the woman who's tried a million things… and is ready to rebuild from the foundations, with clarity, calm, and a real plan.

What You'll Learn

• Why "normal labs" don't always mean your body is okay — and what functional testing can uncover

• The functional connections between endo, immune dysfunction, mold/mycotoxins, parasites, and toxic load

• How xenoestrogens/endocrine disruptors can drive estrogen-dominant symptoms even when hormones look "normal"

• Why detox or protocols can backfire when done in the wrong sequence

• The role of belief, stress physiology, and Cell Danger Response in whether your body can actually shift

• The 2 priorities Jessica recommends most for healing: proper nutrition + taking breaks/rest

Join Sarah and Alana as they unpack the Bioscan, a powerful energetic assessment tool that reveals hidden stress patterns in the body, across systems like the gut, hormones, immune system, lymph, and more. Sarah shares how this non-invasive scan offers deep insights into nervous system dysregulation, toxic overload, and why so many women with endo and adeno feel inflamed and exhausted despite clean diets and supplement protocols.

Expect a practical breakdown of how the Bioscan works, what it reveals, and real examples of how it helps guide personalised healing plans.

What You'll Learn:

• What the Bioscan actually tests for and how it works
