Shiny, immediate fix solutions don't usually work…in fact they tend to send us in the opposite direction. We invest so much time and energy running around trying all of these "quick" solutions hoping this one will be the THING that finally resolves the issue without really having understood the entire problem to begin with. Without really taking the time to think about….what are all of the things I need to consider as I tackle this problem?  What are all of the obstacles, reasons why and challenges that are creating these things I want to fix - and how do I put a plan in place that will once and for find the right solution?   That's where we are beginning today friends….I'm sharing 5 things to arms yourself with for navigating a problem before you start down the road to solutions.Thanks to Pink Poppy, The Downtown West Bend Association and Plantonic Cafe for their support and sponsorship! Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

SUGAR!!! It's the tastiest root of all evil that I think there is! Hands down- managing your sugar intake will have a direct impact on your weight and overall health…but these days - I'm most obsessed with how it negatively impacts my hormones! Even more specific than just “hormones” - I'm interested in how it affects the way my body shows up for me every day. It used to just be 1 week of PMS….and for me- it was always the week I was ovulating - usually about days 18-19 in my cycle-that I would start experiencing PMS symptoms. I would get tired, food cravings like a roller coaster, bloating, headache…just feeling crummy overall. But as I inch closer and closer to menopause - the last several years - it's no longer just the week I have PMS symptoms…. it's becoming every day. Like every day's a new surprise- each morning I wake up and think-well what's today going to be like? It's no longer limited to just the week I would be ovulating (cause that's all over the place these days) Oh-and don't get me started on body temperature and hot flashes- those lovelies like to show up at the least opportune times and I become a hot sweaty mess. Investigating and identifying the healthiest ways to manage and balance my body and hormones is a BIG part of my life these days - for myself as well as my coaching clients! So today- let's chat about the one thing that directly impacts all of those symptoms….SUGAR!Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

 I just wrapped up my summer goals at the end of July (I'm giving myself August as a rest month) and I am so flippin PROUD of myself! One of my goals - in a certain area was to stay the same- exactly the same! Now that was a new one for me! And it ended up being one of my toughest challenges yet!  I felt amazing all summer long!!!  With the goal of staying the same! I was so stinkin proud of myself for taking this on! Having goals usually means we are driving for big results and working towards something big and incredible….but this summer my big and incredible goal was to feel good in my own body and respect that my body needs different things from me now. It needs me to make different choices….and when I do that - I show up differently! And yes! I feel amazing!!  I am not less than because I can't do the things I used to do - quite the opposite actually- I feel stronger and healthier and more capable because I tackled this really big goal of keeping this the same.Take a listen!Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

For the past 3 summers I've held a summer walking group. We always have the best time! We've explored hiking trails around our county, walking paths that are paved and gravel filled and explored neighborhood subdivisions for our walks. The physical benefits of walking are phenomenal- reduces blood pressure, lowers cortisol levels, improves insulin sensitivity…. channels stress…all the good things we need!  But even more than the health benefits….we always take away more from our walks. Today I'm sharing the top 5 lessons that my walking ladies have taught me the past 3 summers…they are full of wisdom and I decided to share!Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

My friend Jordan Weyker, Doctor of Physical Therapy is back and educating us on a topic that impacts so many, but we don't talk about it…it's private and personal-  incontinence. It is believed that ¼ of all women have urinary incontinence and only 20% of the ¼ seek out professional help. If we look at men and women, it is believed that 1 in 3 people will have some type of incontinence. After menopause, women produce less estrogen. Estrogen improves muscle mass and strength; it increases collagen and connective tissues which is important for muscle health and muscle performance. Having less estrogen will decrease the efficiency of the pelvic floor muscles, the bladder lining and the urethra health. This decrease in estrogen can then be a large factor in incontinence if we don't retrain or strengthen our pelvic floor and core control.Another incredible learning opportunity here, take a listen friends!Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

Part of me didn't want to share this podcast with you- part of me wants to hide it and pretend everything is just fine. No one is Pollyanna all the time- no one is 100% motivated and "game on" all the time. As women though, we put these unrealistic expectations on ourselves -we think we need to act like everything is perfect - show the world everything is awesome- no worries...everything is good over here- didn't you see all my Instagram stories???- I look happier than I've ever been. Social media has done a real number on making us think we need to hide the ugly parts of life ... if we show our struggles, it's a sign of weakness or somehow a reflection of being “less than '' But that's not the case.

One of my favorite offerings at Authentic Wellness is Food and Environmental Sensitivity / Intolerance testing. Most often people request this test because they are experiencing painful and uncomfortable digestive issues, belching, bloating, constipation, headaches, breathing issues, rashes and skin irritations….they want answers. They want to know if it's something they are putting in their body that is causing these uncomfortable symptoms. If they know what it is-they can take it out and feel better.  The follow-up meetings are always incredibly interesting. Often, people are surprised with the items listed that are not as straightforward as Eggs, Almonds, Black Pepper or Strawberries. The things that catch folks off guard are the items on their list that are genetically modified in some way, or the preservatives and additives in the food and drinks they consume, the coloring dyes, the chemicals that have these crazy long names, the “substitute foods - all those sugar substitutes or alternatives - or the chemicals that are part of their skin care, home cleaning products or make up…. All of the things that are added to products to make them more appealing - changing the consistency, or color, or taste or smell…..those are the things that are the things that surprise people.  Usually the response is- I don't even know how to say that word let alone know what it is???? How do I know it's in my food or in the products I am using…. Timely, because my friend Heather asked me the other day: “Missy? What are GMOs and should I be eating them? What's the deal with the coloring and dyes? What the heck is in the food I'm eating???”  Lets chat about that today!  Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

The concept of holistic wellness, self-healing, and the importance of treating the entire person rather than just a specific illness or condition has roots in many ancient cultures. Eastern medicine, Ayurvedic medicine, and traditional Chinese medicine are all based on this holistic, interconnected approach.  When someone comes to me with a desire to change their nutrition or lifestyle habits,in the process of working through everything - in driving to root causes- weoften identify there is more to their situation than just consistently eatingtheir vegetables every day.  My role as a health coach is helping the client with nutrition and healing their body from the inside out, addressing gut health, chronic inflammation, food sensitivitiesand intolerances, helping them create healthy nutrition habits.But also, my job is to guide them to other quality practitioners and experts that canhelp with other challenges - and collectively we take a holistic approach tohelp the client heal and create a new lifestyle they can sustain. I have awonderful resource pool that I refer folks to (and they do to me) - and I oftensay there's nothing better than having a team of passionate wellness expertssupporting and encouraging you on your journey. We love what we do!!!  Sometimes it's a personal trainer I am referring to, sometimes it's my favorite yogastudio, sometimes it's my favorite place to get healthy juices and plant basedfoods, and sometimes for pain and stress management - I refer people to foracupuncture. That brings us to this week's episode-Today I want you to meet my friend and fellow Holistic Wellness Practitioner, AngelaGerra.    Angela is a Licensed Acupuncturist, Reiki Master Healer, Acu-Detox Specialist, Ambassador of Peace and a 500-YRT Yoga instructor.

Strength. It's a word that conjures up all kinds of images, thoughts and feelings. There's physical strength, emotional strength - there are so many ways our body's show us that we are strong. Resilience. Determination, Power. The list could go on and on with all of the ways we demonstrate Strength in our life. I happily welcomed Paula Carlton back to speak today to her 2nd S - Strength. It's another good one my friends - listen in as we chat about how Paula connects emotional and physical strength with not only our health span, but our lifespan - and how it plays a vital role in supporting life decades after age 50. Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

So often, when I'm working with health coaching clients I hear...“Missy-I think about food all of the time! I think about all of the foods I love that are bad for me…I think about how much I'm eating….calories, calories, calories…..I obsess over cookies and coffee drinks! Ugh! I try not to think about it….but it creeps back in and usually ends up with me feeling crummy and disappointed with my choices and how my mind and body feel. Why can't I just stop thinking about food?”So that's where we're going today friends!

Hands down, one of the most passionate and determined people I have met in the wellness arena is today's guest, and my friend and fellow wellness warrior sister Tanya Fransen. Her passion for helping the community be healthier is uncompromising! We could have easily chatted the entire afternoon but were able to condense today's episode into a little over 30 minutes ... and we just scratched the surface.  She will be back - but for starters, I wanted you to hear her story. I wanted you to hear another example of how each of us, in our way, and through overcoming our health struggles, are now committed to paying it forward and helping our neighbors, friends, and community live a healthier life too! Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

Friend….I love Christmas cookies. Today is cookie baking day in my house and my countertops are currently packed full of bags of flour, cookie cutouts, sprinkles, and chocolate…it's like a collection of all the “naughty” items sitting there staring at me …calling my name!! Know what my favorite part of today will be? Not sneaking bites of frosting or “sampling” the goodies…nope! My favorite part of today is the chaos that ensues when my kitchen is packed full of all of the people I love! Christmas music blasting in the background, everyone laughing and tapping into their creative baking skills…my heart will be full of joy and happiness. That is the magic of this time of year. I will be present. I will soak up every second of happiness. I will make memories today. It's not about the cookies or the treats- it's family….and that is my FAV!Over the past several weeks, my client coaching sessions have focused a lot on how hard it is this time of year to be “healthy” and the struggles they face in making good nutrition choices. Since it was coming up almost every session, I thought- this is a good podcast topic! Here's the hard truth- it doesn't matter if it's the holidays, spring break, summer cookout season, or fall comfort foods time .... there are always obstacles in our way. Food is the hard part. Being your own health advocate is hard….and one of those underappreciated and unglorified roles …but it's the role of your lifetime! There are always challenges for us to face- the time of year is just a time of year - how you choose to tackle your plan for being healthy and strong- winter spring summer or fall - how you chose to tackle the hard -now that my friend is something for us to chat about today!Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

Wednesday, December 19th my life came to a screeching halt. Life stopped in its tracks. My body had not been paying attention to everything my mind had been busy working on! I had things to do - places to be - people to meet - end of year goals to crush - and it was the holidays! My FAVORITE time of year!  Or perhaps…it was the other way around. Perhaps my mind hadn't been listening to my body - or it was doing that selective hearing that I accuse Ryan of all the time where he only seems to hear what he wants to hear. Either way - my body very clearly had other plans for me. Learn from my lesson.

Mindset Goal: Stay in a place that supports being comfortable in the skin and the body I am in.  This is what I'm working on these days. Some days I nail it, other days- epic fail! That's the truth.

Creating and living by a mindset of “Healthy” that works for me…feeds my soul….fuels my body and helps me show up as my best self - that is powerful - and it is entirely on me! Embracing my scars, my imperfections and everything about me that makes me….me.  Life doesn't stand still and just because something worked in the past doesn't mean it's meant to work going forward. Change can be hard because it's unknown, but new adventures can be incredibly exciting!  Let's chat about having a mindset of “Healthy” Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

August of last year (episode 11), I started conversations with our guest today, Nurse Practitioner Paula Carlton about her 5 “must haves” for embracing everything it means to be a woman. In episode 15 she shared her insight on Embracing SensualityIn episode 18 we talked about the importance of Emotional and Physical StrengthToday, we have a beautiful conversation around Satisfaction.  The importance of becoming satisfied with where we are at in our lives at any given point along the way. In particular, around menopause and how important this transitional time is to recognize what satisfies us and what may no longer serve us.  Paula's heartfelt words, wisdom, and insight hit home for me in a powerful way in this episode.

One of the coolest parts of watching your kids grow up is when they start to become young adults, and you begin having conversations with them where you feel like you don't have to be wearing the parent hat.You get to talk with them as the incredible young adults they are becoming. The conversations become two-way conversations and if you're listening and paying attention, you start to learn a whole lot about what's going on in their world and how you've influenced them. So here we go. Here's one of those really cool conversations that I had with my daughter Greta the week before she heads back for her second year of college. We hit on periods, training bras, body image, laundry, life lessons, all the things... I hope you enjoy it. I know I'm a little partial, but I think she's pretty dang incredible. Support the Show.Sign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

This episode is all about Mindset-a crazy, fuzzy, ambiguous word that gets thrown around a lot. Mindset, in my definition, is how we approach problem solving in our life.  That's it- Mindset -how we approach problem solving. Where your head is at determines A LOT!! You cannot balance your hormones when your daily habits and your mindset are the actual reason your hormones are anything but balanced to begin with. Let's do the work of getting your mindset to place that it becomes your biggest cheerleader.

Send us a textOver the past 6 years, I've learned in my health coaching practice that for so many women, there's great confusion around what triggers hormone imbalances. So today, we're talking about the gut/hormone connection because when your gut gets wonky so do your hormones.  Your hormones will never be balanced if you have underlying digestive and gut issues.  Gut health as it relates to hormone balance is my biggest passion, from personal experience as well as for my clients. Many challenges we put in the “hormone imbalance” category are driven by gut imbalances- and to heal your gut means healing those symptoms.  ·        UTI's·        PMS symptoms·        Constipation or Diarrhea·        Autoimmune conditions·        Chronic Fatigue·        Brain Fog·        Insulin Resistance·        BloatingThis episode is part 1 of a two-part series. In the next episode, I'm going to talk about my gut/hormone reset (which I will be offering as an online January group program). I'll talk at length about an Anti-Inflammatory Nutrition plan, Supplementation, Smart Lifestyle Changes and Strategies- but today I want to break down what's going on in your body and what's keeping you in a state of imbalance and frustration. Support the showWork with me: https://linktr.ee/missy_propperSign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

Send us a text… these are the hardest episodes for me to share but mean the most 2024 was a crazy, unexpected, entirely “off the path of a normal” year for me. There were moments of extreme humbling. It was difficult. There were times I felt more alone than I had in years. I questioned so many things about myself. It tested me in ways I didn't think I was prepared for. It taught me lessons I didn't know I needed to learn. It was hard and uncomfortable but also very, very FUN! What I didn't see coming- and what I tackled this year - was a season of growing. A year of learning lessons and finding a way to root myself in a new me. I didn't see it coming- but I am incredibly glad it happened.This year, I tapped into ·        Grit that I never knew I had·        Mindset that I thought would waver but didn't ·        And a reality that life is about being present and showing up as me- authentically me - and when I did that, it equated to showing up for everyone around me in a new and better way as well. Today I'm sharing my very vulnerable lessons from 2024 in the hope they help spark something for you that helps you in your journey too. ·        How I rewrote the script for the voice in my head·        How I redefined the power of my circle·        How I dove deeper and found my grit. In accomplishing these feats - learning my value - and understanding that just being authentically me- is exactly where and who I'm supposed to be. Support the showWork with me: https://linktr.ee/missy_propperSign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!
