SYNC Your Life Podcast

Welcome to the SYNC Your Life podcast episode #92! On this podcast, we will be diving into all things women's hormones to help you learn how to live in alignment with your female physiology. Too many women are living with their check engine lights flashing. You know you feel "off" but no matter what you do, you can't seem to have the energy, or lose the weight, or feel your best. This podcast exists to shed light on the important topic of healthy hormones and cycle syncing, to help you gain maximum energy in your life.

In today's episode, I'm covering how to prepare for the hospital experience. While this doesn't apply to all infant adoptions, it does apply to many, so I wanted to be sure to cover this on this month's National Adoption Month feature. In this episode, I talk about what to expect, the emotions involved, how your agency/attorney/consultant plays a part, and what to bring along with you at your baby's birth.

If you've ever considered adoption, take a listen to this podcast all month long for topics you'll want to hear.

In today's episode, I'm interviewing Lilli Correll, author of Amazon #1 bestselling book, "Resolve to Rise: Become Greater Than Your Circumstances."

I interviewed Lilli about overcoming your circumstances on our previous interview, found here. In today's episode, we dive deep into epigenetic theory as it pertains to passing on trauma from birth parents to child, and the influence it has on adopted children and their families. This show will make you think deeply about your own past, as Lilli has a way of revealing what lies beneath the surface when it comes to deeply rooted epigenetics. If you've considered adopting a child, foster parenting a child, or have a family impacted by adoption, this is a must listen.

In this episode, we reference two books:

"It Didn't Start With You," by Mark Wolynn

Welcome to the SYNC Your Life podcast episode #87! On this podcast, we will be diving into all things women's hormones to help you learn how to live in alignment with your female physiology. Too many women are living with their check engine lights flashing. You know you feel "off" but no matter what you do, you can't seem to have the energy, or lose the weight, or feel your best. This podcast exists to shed light on the important topic of healthy hormones and cycle syncing, to help you gain maximum energy in your life.

In today's episode, I'm interviewing Jenni Lord, founder and CEO of Chosen. Jenni first encountered the child welfare system in 1995 when her foster brother entered their family as a toddler. His story and five-year adoptive journey had a profound impact, and she has had a desire for systemic transformation since.

After several years in the business sector, the road for professional advocacy opened up in 2008 when she had an idea of how to help children who needed loving and safe families. Subsequently, she founded Chosen.

Jenni has a background in Communications, Psychology, and Counseling. She has extended her professional training with a Nonprofit Management Certification, along with certifications in Leadership and Fundraising. Part of her role is advocating for systemic policy reform, and she is active in both federal and state affairs.

Chosen's mission has evolved with her at the helm to fulfill a unique need in the childcare welfare continuum. Jenni recognized that there is a real deficiency in long-term support of families impacted by the grief and loss associated with foster care and adoption. She is extremely passionate about children healing from the trauma of abuse, neglect, and abandonment, which is the agency's primary focus today. Equally, she is dedicated to strengthening families as agents of healing for their children.

In 2017, Jenni led the organization through self-implementation of the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) from Traction to break through to a next level for Chosen.

She is intentional about leading a culture of empowerment and accountability to most effectively serve the vulnerable. She has regularly been summoned to teach others about EOS's impact on growth and organizational change.

Jenni has served in multiple board and leadership roles locally and nationally, including most recently as Texas Chair of the national Family Focused Treatment Association (FFTA). She is a founding member of the Family Coalition's church movement for More than Enough in New Braunfels, TX, and is intimately involved in Unicity's Decade of Family in San Antonio.

You can find out more about Chosen by visiting their website, chosen.care.

Welcome to the SYNC Your Life podcast episode #85! On this podcast, we will be diving into all things women's hormones to help you learn how to live in alignment with your female physiology. Too many women are living with their check engine lights flashing. You know you feel "off" but no matter what you do, you can't seem to have the energy, or lose the weight, or feel your best. This podcast exists to shed light on the important topic of healthy hormones and cycle syncing, to help you gain maximum energy in your life.

In today's episode, I'm interviewing Elyse Wagner. Elyse has always been a questioner, motivated to discover what's possible when you're really, truly in your soul purpose. For her, that purpose is to help others take ownership of their health. She first embraced this calling while in graduate school at Bastyr University, when she was diagnosed with celiac disease. In struggling with her diagnosis, she realized that she had always known, intuitively, that certain foods were creating "brain fog," bloating, and mood swings. So she made the empowering decision to become the CEO of her health and tapped into the motivation to change her lifestyle.

Elyse healed her mind and body by applying the knowledge she was learning in her master's program: that food and a positive mindset are the most powerful medicine. It became clear to her that she was called to empower others to choose health and educate them on how to achieve wellness.

After earning a dual master's degree in holistic nutrition and clinical psychology, Elyse began practicing as a certified nutritionist and licensed mental health counselor. In 2013, she founded My Kitchen Shrink, Inc. and joined Dr. Scheinbaum at Feed Your Mind Wellness, LLC as a Health Coach, where they connected over their shared belief in the transformative power of Functional Medicine coaching.

Elyse always hoped to make a powerful impact on the world through health education. Founding FMCA and serving thousands of students as part of the Functional Medicine movement is the manifestation of a lifelong dream.

"Sandi and I share a passion for teaching, inspiring, and empowering like-minded professionals to become effective coaches. FMCA provides an educational framework that embodies the perfect blend of mind, body, and spirit. It's not just a program, it's a movement, and I'm honored to have the opportunity to guide your personal and professional growth. This is what I'm here to do, what I need to do. This is my purpose."

Elyse is the author of Smoothie Secrets Revealed: A Guide to Enhance Your Health and co-author of Functional Medicine Coaching: How to Be Part of the Movement That's Transforming Healthcare.
