This episode is pretty much a conversation between two practitioners with a past of hormonal troubles. I speak with Paige from Turmeric & Tequila and we get into our highs and lows of healing your body; How to go about testing, what symptoms to look out for, and when it is actually best to trust your own intuition.  Paige shares her knowledge and experiences on how you can possibly spot symptoms and read those signs when your body may be pointing to something deeper, The steps to take once you are aware of what is going on in your body, as well as many tips you can learn to help the process like balance, changing your mind frame and cleaning out the toxins from your life.

When a healthy passion turns toxic. I got into this field because I am fascinated by the human body. How to nourish it, to understand what it needs, how to learn the tools to actually heal yourself by diet and lifestyle changes alone (in some cases). I dipped my toes into the world of health and wellness by learning these topics for my own personal interest. It was only later where I realized ‘why not get certified and make this into my career?' I started a course in sports nutrition, getting my foundation covered as a nutrition specialist… And I really enjoyed it! I would start to shift my daily habits as I learned new studies. Changed a few details about my diet, tried a variety of workouts. I was practicing what I was preaching…Until I wasn't. I then became certified as an Integrative Health Practitioner and dove a bit deeper. I started to feel like “the best version” of myself. I felt light and energized. My skin was clear, I had very little moments of “ugh I feel so gross and bloated”. As I said, I felt great. Now here is where I went wrong. I know, I know, You shouldn't regret the past, you can only learn from your mistakes. The problem was, I was blinded by my wrongdoings. I preached a healthy balanced life, and me, being a disciplinarian, stripped any balance from my lifestyle. I started to think more literal over that vague line where it's okay to cross.

In this episode, I speak with Meredith, A self-healing coach. What I love about these episodes is how I go in with this list of what I would intend to speak about and then leave with a whole other experience. Meredith not only comes from a place of experience with her own health journey but with the knowledge of an integrative health practitioner too. She speaks about the shifts she made from focusing on being a health coach and now, bringing less emphasis on the "rules" we give ourselves and more on what is really needed in this field; a healing coach.  I know that you will really gain a new perspective and game plan from this episode, I know I have.  Hope you enjoy it! - Leah Mentioned in this podcast: De-stresser of the week:  Calm Mag - https://shopstyle.it/l/brh3H Equilibrium Nutrition - https://shopstyle.it/l/brh3J Tongue scraper - https://shopstyle.it/l/brh2J No period now what - https://shopstyle.it/l/brhZn Brené Brown: a) Daring greatly - https://shopstyle.it/l/brhZo b) Gifts of imperfection - https://shopstyle.it/l/brhZq c) Rising strong - https://shopstyle.it/l/brh24 d) Dear to lead - https://shopstyle.it/l/brh22 Ms fresh Organics - https://www.msfreshorganics.com/product-page/rewind-balm Jill on The HYE podcast - https://anchor.fm/the-hye-life-podcast/episodes/041--The-Nitty-Gritty-on-Non-Toxic-w--Jill-Sheridan--M-Ed-Biology--Founder-of-Ms--Fresh-Organics-ea7lua To check out more from Meredith: @thehyelife https://www.feelthehye.com/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-hye-life-podcast/id1445381724 https://www.feelthehye.com/hye-ebooks If you would like to contact me: @by_Leahr www.byleahr.com www.itspersonalcoach.com itspersonalcoach@gmail.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leah-rice/support

My "off-topics" topics always seem to have a 'health & wellness' undertone, and this episode will be all things social media related. I think that we are living in a world run by social media and it's so important to understand the power it has over our day-to-day lives; The effects it may have on us and our mental health as well as how we can use it to better ourselves. I think Emma, one of the founders of Instagram sensation Comments by Celebs is THE person to go to when getting into the world of social media.  We dive deep into topics such as the escapism of Instagram and the world of Reality shows & Celebrities. What is the best formula to be a genuine activist?  Building up a podcast or social media account.

I thought to start off the year with a Q&A.  This episode is raw, unedited... Like all my solo episodes, and I get into the questions you asked to be answered.  In this episode I discuss: - What are some telling signs you may have a thyroid issue and how you should test properly. - A typical day of meals, and how to make sure you don't flush out your important vitamins (especially your vitamin b's). - What are my favorite meals to cook... if I actually cook that is;) - How my lifestyle change in lockdown/COVID times. - How to exercise when you have no time. - How to maintain a healthy hormonal balance.

This episode must be one of my favorite conversations. I speak with Siim Land; a best-selling author, public speaker, high-performance coach, content creator, and professional biohacker.

The good side of stress and more importantly how to adapt to life's stressors, and so much more.  www.siimland.com / @siimland Products mentioned in this episode: Siim Land - The immunity Fix: https://shopstyle.it/l/bqnNy Siim Land - Stronger by Stress: https://shopstyle.it/l/bqnK1 Viktor Frankl - Man Search for meaning: https://shopstyle.it/l/bqnK5 Oura Ring: https://ouraring.com/product/heritage-gold/step1 Om Mushrooms (Use code LEAHR for 10% off): https://ommushrooms.com/?ref=bay72eymi3i Milk Frother: https://shopstyle.it/l/bqn1W Malibu Mylk: https://malibumylk.com/ For more information go to: @by_leahr www.itspersonalcoach.com www.byleahr.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leah-rice/support

This episode went in so many different directions and it was hard not to.

In this episode, I speak with holistic aesthetician and integrative health practitioner Erin. We discuss the importance of diet when it comes to skin health as well as treatments, skin types, ingredients, and more. My off-topic episodes are conversations that are still health and wellness-related but bringing on different aspects of how you can improve your knowledge and lifestyle. These topics still very much still connected to the season's topic (season 01 - women's hormones), but as an integrative health practitioner, we know that the whole picture is important.

I am going to start creating more solo episodes. This way I can be more specific with my process towards healing my thyroid and hormones. I believe that anyone going through the same struggles probably has different experiences to mine since we are all about bio-individuality over here...  but hopefully, my story would resonate with someone in one way or another.   I would love to hear more about your story, what information you want to get specific in.

As a practitioner, I started niching into clients dealing with all types of hormonal imbalances, and then I too became yet another victim of this unfortunate yet common predicament. I found it to be very helpful to hear other people's stories and experiences when it came to thyroid health as well as imbalanced hormones. So here is my story. If I can share one fragment of information that will click with one person my goal will be achieved. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leah-rice/support
