Life in the Treehouse Podcast

In this episode, we explore who and what energizes us ~ the people we hang around with, the places we go, the projects we pursue, and even our habits either tend to energize or drain us.   Will you share with me how you are taking inspired action to fill your cup?

In this episode, I share things that we make here in the Treeshouse. Many of these items you can find on Etsy and other places that sell earth-friendly items. We value knowing exactly what is in the things we put into and on our body. Our skin is our largest organ. What goes on it, and into us, is extremely important to us. What started me on this journey was traveling with liquids when flying.  Fast forward to now and the focus is to get plastics out of the Treehouse.Do you have a question or wish to provide feedback?

LDL gets a bad rap. In today's episode we discuss what the real culprit of heart disease is, in most cases, and the cholesterol numbers you really need to be keeping track of. Plus, some ratios using your total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglyceride levels to know your risk for coronary heart disease.Triglycerides/HDL is the best indicator of heart disease risk.

Did you know that T2 Diabetes, heart disease, and obesity typically have Insulin Resistance in common? It's quite fascinating actually!Hyperinsulinemia is a term that means a person's body has higher levels of insulin than normal. Despite having more insulin, the body does not respond any better to insulin's directions. This makes a human insulin resistant. Most adult Americans have hyperinsulinemia.

Today we're talking about dating. My personal perspective of dating as a married, polyamorous, pansexual.  The experience is probably much like yours, yet quite different. The potential partner is not only taking on me, but also the whole Tribe, if not to a lesser extent. The questions alone that I am asked can be of a different variety.  Would you consider dating someone who is polyamorous? Have you dated someone who practices ethical non-monogamy? What questions do you have for me?May I feature your question on an upcoming podcast? If you have a question, text it to 540-404-2692 or call the number and leave a message with your question.

Would it be okay if we went into today's episode with the notion that anything is possible? I've been asked to share where polyamory has been helpful in my life. If you can love more than one child, which, you can, then you can love more than one adult.  Society tells us otherwise. Monogamy is a recent social construct. It's made up. Having someone else important in your life, that you can depend on, lean on, be vulnerable with, and share the bad with the good isn't such a bad thing. Why do we have to limit ourselves to just one person? Feel free to submit your questions or send feedback to 540-404-2692 (text or phone)website:  www.SuzAshley.comInstagram @SuzThrives Telegram @SuzThrives, 540-404-2692WhatsApp @SuzThrivestext 540-404-2692Twitter @SuzAshleySUPPORT

Each one of us is a unique puzzle piece in this paradoxical puzzle called life. Individualism is causing challenges that I feel could be solved if we took on the mindset of “it takes a village'.  What could happen if we changed our mindset, focused on doing what was best for everyone, for the Collective?Feel free to submit your questions or send feedback to 540-404-2692 (text or phone)website:  www.SuzAshley.comInstagram @SuzThrives Telegram @SuzThrives, 540-404-2692WhatsApp @SuzThrivestext 540-404-2692Twitter @SuzAshleySUPPORT
