The Superwoman Code

Have you ever felt so overwhelmed that you literally fight with all your might to do what you need to do, only to realize you're in the exact same spot?

I have.

Today on the podcast, I'm introducing you to my life jacket. You know, the thing you put on when you're in deep water so you can float? So you can literally not die?

That thing.

And I'm asking you to listen to today's podcast, and think about what relief you need in whatever season of life you are in - and give yourself that.

I'll give you a hint, mine include walks in the woods, a book, and NCAA Gymnastics.

I don't particularly like trends where we make women feel like something is wrong with their bodies and then have them spend over $500.00 to test their hormones when they don't need it. There. I said it. I'm going on a bit of a rant today about when hormone testing should be used, and when it shouldn't be. You've heard me talk about reference points before in relation to burnout, and it's no different on this front. You have to have the reference points first and then you add the testing in to help you determine the last piece of the puzzle, not the first. . Looks like it's something that. Crazy magical and will tell you all of the things that are going on in your life. Because I find when people come to me with hormone tests that have already been done, that it's created a lot of fear, and a lot of feelings of inadequacy and a feeling like your body has let you down. It hasn't let you down friends, but this episode will help you understand why you need reference points.

Welcome to the world of Productivity Hangovers. You know, those days where you accomplish a virtual crap-ton of stuff, only to wake up the next morning feeling like crap? Yeah. Those are real. They're also a sign that you're tipping towards burnout. Today on the podcast I'm talking about what a productivity hangover is, how to avoid them, and why giving yourself small and consistent tasks each day is better than doing ONE big task a week. Jeff Olsen called this the "Slight Edge" in his book, but I think you'll see how it can help prevent burnout after you listen to today's podcast.

Today on the podcast I'm going to walk you through why subtraction is more important than addition.

Why? Because subtraction helps you create space within your capacity, which in turn creates space for you to add what truly matters most (go back and listen to episode 91 for those insights).

Sponsoring today's episode is an article by Nicole Pajer featuring yours truly on Burnout. Check it out!

Can't wait to see you next week, Superwomen.

HAPPY 2022 FRIENDS!

I am so excited for y'all to listen to today's episode because it's the New Years Episode, and this year I'm focusing on helping all of you Name What Matters Most.

As you listen to today's episode, here's a few questions to think about:

What foods fuel you throughout the day? What are ways that I enjoy moving my body? What kind of sleep or amount of sleep do I need to feel my best? Who or what makes me feel alive? What makes me feel unsafe or unsure? Who makes me feel cared for? What connections or relationships do I have that help me practice love and trust and belonging? What type of work fuels me and fills me with purpose? What are causes that I deeply care about and what is my capacity to function within all of that? PS - My word of the year this year? It's Subtract. I'll tell you more next episode ;)

Women are not small men.

This is a statement that Dr. Mandy Swinden, ND lives by every day. And she doesn't just talk about it with her patients, she lives it in her own life.

On today's podcast, I pick Mandy's brain about working out with your hormones, why your hormones can help you maximize your performance, and what you can be doing to support your recovery when you need it the most.

About Dr. Mandy

Growing up as a competitive female athlete, I was not concerned about my irregular menstrual cycle, and was actually grateful to not have a period every month. I believed the lie that so many female athletes believe; that having a monthly hormone cycle was a detriment to athletic performance. As I worked through my education to become a Naturopathic Doctor, I soon realized that this was far from the truth, and this inspired me to dive deep into educating myself about female hormones and our unique physiology.

Maria Radelich, MScPT is a pelvic floor physiotherapist who is slightly obsessed with the pelvic floor. And when I say slightly, I mean VERY. She's spent her entire career helping men and women support their pelvic floor as a physiotherapist, and then took that knowledge and built it into Pelvico Fitness & Rehabilitation - an app for moms and moms-to-be.

You'll get a lot from today's episode - so tune in and get out your notebook for this one!

About Maria: Maria Radelich found her passion for rehabilitation and fitness when she completed her Bachelor of Kinesiology with Honours from Acadia University and then went on to complete her Masters in Physiotherapy from Dalhousie University.

Maria went on to specialize in pelvic floor and core dysfunction, which led her to realize that many women and men didn't really understand the core system and how to rehabilitate the core after injury or having a baby.
