Women Unscripted

On this episode, Functional Medicine Practitioner, Dr. Kirstin Lauritzen discusses the most frequently asked question she gets: "What do I need to do to recover better". Recovery products are available and endless, which tends to make recovery seem a bit more complicated than it actually needs to be. Not to mention, a lot of advice on recovery has been based on research predominantly performed on male subjects and has not addressed the differences in physiology between men and women. In this episode we discuss the basics of why your body needs a period of time to recover, what are some simple ways you can make sure your nutrition is supporting your training and recovery, and what do women need that's different from men? Kirstin also includes some tips that you can apply this week and she discusses some of the popular supplements that are out there today. What's worth it and what might be something you want to leave behind? Check out this jam packed episode of Sound Bites.

On this episode Abby Ehler and Joan Mulloy, co-host to discuss motherhood in sailing. Joan is one of Ireland’s most inspiring young sailors, having represented her country on the global racing stage. In 2018, Joan became the first Irish woman to represent her country at the high-profile international Solitaire Le Figaro race. Her ultimate ambition is to be the first Irish person to complete the Vendée Globe, a solo round-the-world race.
Joan has some very exciting yet challenging news not only of navigating the COVID environment but also that she is pregnant and expecting her first baby in September. Joan had been thinking about how much she would love to hear from other female offshore sailors talking about their experiences of motherhood and raising a family alongside their sailing careers. So the aim of this podcast is to delve into the topic of Motherhood and a sailing related career, with the aim of chatting to guests Carolijn Brouwer and Maria Bertrand to talk about their experiences and share any advice to those, like Joan, who are about to enter into the new world of being a mum and many others who are wondering how on earth it is possible to juggle such an unconventional job with being a parent.
Carolijn Brouwer has successfully navigated the balance of sailing as a career and being a mother, Carolijn many of you will already know is an experienced dinghy and offshore sailor, having won the last edition of The Volvo Ocean Race with DongFeng Race Team. 
Maria Bertrand will be a little less known to the sailing world from the outside, however she is certainly no less important and is a master of sailing team logistics and a natural born organiser.  Maria, has two children, now aged eight and four, and has worked for five editions of the Volvo Ocean Race.

On this episode, Functional Medicine Practitioner, Dr. Kirstin Lauritzen discusses how hormone balance is vital for a healthy functioning body. Most women, however, fight their hormones. The medical system and traditional sports nutrition and research has taught women to want to avoid working out and competing around the time of their periods. The thing is – you can work with your hormones versus against them.  She makes sure to include the importance of educating yourself on different birth control methods if you do decide to train and move your cycle around when it comes to competing. Kirstin also includes some tips for athletes battling thyroid concerns and athletes in menopause and post menopause.

On this episode, Dr. Nicole LaVoi talks to an impressive group of women, the summer 'Tucker Team', which consists of the Summer Gender Equity Interns: Sam Benzig, Cecelia Kaufmann, Paige Richmond, Greta Sirek and The Pam Borton Fellow for the Promotion of Girls and Women in Sport Leadership, Courtney Boucher. They discuss the projects they have been working on this summer, what they have learned, and advice they give to future interns. "I want to say that our internship program is one of my favorite initiatives of the Tucker Center as it fulfills our mission of making a difference in lives of girls and women in sport through education, outreach, and research. I learn so much from them and it energizes my work, and I am grateful we all have had this opportunity for a virtual internship. I felt strongly the show must go on, so we pivoted to an online internship, and I have to say while it's not as good as in person, it's been great," said Nicole.
