The Simplicity Sessions

Welcome back to The Simplicity Sessions, I'm delighted that you've joined us today. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project and the creator of the women's revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.

Two more episodes till our 200th episode and I have something planned and you will know about it soon. In today's episode, we are going to talk about trust and keeping promises to yourself because some of it can be the cause of why you are struggling to achieve something you desire.

Trusting ourselves is not the easiest thing to do. I will be asking you some questions so that you can have a heart check and know if you really trust yourself.

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to [email protected] or via Instagram at @jennpike and I'll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts and advice.

Here are the main topics of today's episode:

• Integrity
• The process of life
• We can feel apathetic
• Conversation with my son
• It is always the small things
• Creating boundaries for myself
• Exploring something I have done
• Do you feel like you always need to ask permission?
• Do you trust your ability to make the decisions for yourself?
• What promises are you breaking to yourself on a regular basis?

Quotes -

• "To do the unbecoming of who we thought that we were to break up with a lot of our stories that truly are not true."
• "You're not asking them to make the decision for you."

• "We have this hard time trusting ourselves because we lack the ability at our core to really keep our own word to ourselves."

• "The other person that you're asking, they're not going to have the same level of conviction that this thing is for you and they're going to give you lots of reasons as to why this is not a good idea."

• "It's so easy for us to look outside of ourselves for answers. And then immediately, if something doesn't go the way that we had hoped to desire, to also look outside of ourselves, to point the finger and to blame."

• "If you're not honoring your word to yourself, it means that you are most likely honoring it to everyone and everything else. And that is a complete lack of integrity that is completely living out of alignment."

This episode is another Simplicity Bite reminding you that you don't need to make life difficult by always prioritizing your work ahead of other things in your life. I have been going through a change in mindset over the past number of years where I know to make time for myself and my family. It's easy to throw your entire life into your work, but that is how you reach burnout faster.

Life is already complex enough, why make things difficult for you in your business and will spill over in your personal life.

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to [email protected] or via Instagram at @jennpike and I'll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts, and advice.

Here are the main topics of today's episode:

• My week
• Where does being overwhelmed come from?
• What I realized while taking a walk every day
• Being too hard on yourself
• Behind the scenes
• We continue to evolve and grow
• There is no due date

Quotes -

• "We always get to choose whether or not we are going to show up that way to whether or not we are going to choose to do the hard thing. And what if it actually didn't have to be hard?"

• "It's when you begin to allow other people's lives, what other people are doing, how they are showing up their successes, the things they have going on and doing that is I think what perpetuates this feeling of, I need to do more and then yes, it's hard, but I can do hard things."

• "The work doesn't come in what you have to do, the work comes in what you have to undo, what you have to unlearn.

• "The remedy is to do less."

• "I allow myself to contract what needs to be contracted so that there's more room for other things to expand into bloom and grow."

• "If you aren't taking note of it, if you aren't measuring it, you're not able to see the improvement happen. And so understanding where your benchmark is, where you're starting now, is really important."

Quotes -

• " I look back to those days and like, whoa, those were some inflamed training days. In my twenties I was partying, I was drinking, I was teaching a lot of classes and they were all high intensity."
• "My adrenals didn't love it anymore. I never felt like I fully recovered from the run. So as much as my mind loved hitting the road, I never even ran with music or podcasts. I just hit the ground."
• "I have a deep understanding of how. Important muscle is as an organ of longevity and a hormonal endocrine functioning organ, and the role it plays for our bone health, our heart health, our brain health, and our hormonal health as women."
• "The big rocks of your success, especially if you were trying to build muscle, are going to be stress management, your downtime, your nutrition, and personal growth."
• "If you have specific goals that match the movement, then match your effort with the specificity of the bowl."
• "You're going to have to be in a slight caloric surplus in order to build muscle"

Welcome back to The Simplicity Sessions, I'm delighted that you've joined us today. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project and the creator of the women's revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.

I decided to do something a little different than our regular Monday episodes. I encouraged you to ask me your questions on estrogen and you all came through with some great queries. The questions allowed me to go over many of the myths and worries involved with estrogen.

I discuss why estrogen is vilified when we discuss hormones and how the hormone fluctuates through your life. I answer many questions on varying levels of estrogen and its effect on your body as well as how you should interpret test results for the hormone.

I am also releasing my 7-day detox program for FREE so you can move towards feeling better soon by following the program: https://jennpike.com/freedetox

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to [email protected] or via Instagram at @jennpike and I'll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts and advice.

Here are the main topics of today's episode:

• The reason why estrogen is vilified
• Estrogen fluctuations with age
• What do you think comes first: estrogen dominance or Endometriosis?
• Are fibrocystic breasts only a result of excess estrogen?
• How low is low for estrogen levels?
• What do I recommend taking for high estrogen?
• Do phytoestrogens influence the Dutch test results?
• What are the top 5 ways to get rid of extra estrogen?
• Is estrogen safe post-lumpectomy with proper monitoring?

Quotes -

• "...a stimulated HPA ACCE, which is your hypothalamus pituitary adrenal axis. This is really what we're talking about where adrenal health can actually suppress the signal, which then can result in less progesterone and more estrogen, relatively speaking."
• "A perception from women is that you're not trying to have the hormones that you had in your twenties and thirties when you're in your late forties, fifties, and sixties"
• "Stop drinking alcohol. Don't shoot the messenger! But the alcohol will seriously mess with your excess estrogen."

Today's episode is a continuation of the thought that I had in last week's Simplicity Bite. Last week, I discussed how I needed to learn to sit back after a win and celebrate; however, I felt compelled to continue working on the next project, for the next win. I received some great feedback from people over the past week. People DM'ed me to share their thoughts and/or congratulate me celebrating my victories.

I want you to think about how you were taught to work. Maybe it's similar to the way I was taught to work: if you work more, then you will earn more and/or you will be more successful. However, that is not the full story; it's important to listen to your mind and body. It's important to not only celebrate the wins, but relax as well. Women are often burning out in their businesses because they want to do more work as they measure their busyness as part of their success.

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to [email protected] or via Instagram at @jennpike and I'll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts and advice.

Here are the main topics of today's episode:

• How I feel after last week's show (and the feedback- thank you!)
• What we were taught about how to succeed
• What happens when you don't listen to your body
• Are you courageous enough to ask the question?

Quotes -

• " Like you feel like you've been taught that doing the most is what you are supposed to do."
• "We put the pressure on ourselves that either we have to nail it and, you know, seven different areas of our life or just hyper performance show up really high in one area."
• "Can we please just stop focusing on the width of what we do in life and start to move heavier into the depth of what we do. Meaning why do we need to have a million things that we are participating in."
• "​Ask yourself, how wide am I? How deep do I want to go? Start to ask yourself where you can pull back on some of the width? Where can you trim and prune today?"
