On today’s episode, Erica and Lauren interview Vianney Leigh, certified life & success coach, menstrual cycle alignment expert, and host of the Periods & Power Moves Podcast.

This episode is for anyone with a monthly menstrual cycle who is tired of resisting their body and using all their energy fighting against their cycle. Today, Vianney teaches us what’s possible when we stop resisting our monthly cycle and start working with our cycle superpowers.

As women, or anyone with a period, our monthly menstrual cycle means that we have a different body each week based on the hormones that are moving through our body. Different hormones will determine how we feel, how well we make decisions and how much rest we need and so much more. Your body is giving you very clear signals..it’s time for you to welcome them in and learn to interpret them.

Vianney covers our inner-seasons and so many strategies for aligning with your cycle instead of resisting it. You’re definitely going to want to listen to this episode a few times and check out all the resources we’ve listed below.

On today’s episode, Erica unpacks her own journey with chronic illness (an autoimmune disease for over a decade) and how functional lab testing helped her discover her own personalized roadmap to healing naturally. For years, conventional medicine told her that “this was just how life was going to be” but Erica never stopped searching and finally found the answers she was looking for. In this episode, she’ll reveal what those answers were and one of her favorite health hacks of all time: Functional Lab Testing.

Functional lab testing does not diagnose disease. Instead it gives us sub-clinical (or pre-disease) data that helps us understand what’s going on in the body and how to rebalance ourselves BEFORE we reach a point where a doctor can diagnose disease. 

Through functional lab testing, we can identify vitamin/mineral deficiencies, toxicities (such as mold, yeast, heavy metals, etc.) and imbalances (such as your hormones) and much more. Functional lab testing is an amazing tool, but you have to run them with someone who is trained to interpret them. Because they don’t diagnose disease, most conventional medicine doctors don’t use them or understand them. They are also typically not covered by insurance since they don’t diagnose disease.

If you’re interested in running any of the lab tests Erica shares about in this episode, reach out to schedule your free discovery call and Erica will let you know which test is best for you to start with. You can email her at [email protected]
