I have a lot to share about my own process and really exciting news for you today! The 22-Day Transformational Own Your Energy is here and open. Join and read more at www.deeplynourishedforlife.com/own-your-energy. We begin on Monday, December 14th, and the next few weeks together are going to be incredible. In Own Your Energy I’ll share a daily invitation that will guide participants in connecting with your unique essence & energy each day. I’ll be right along side everyone, deepening into my own energy more and more, supporting inner reclamation and rejuvenation. Three big themes we will explore are releasing what isn't truly you, rediscover whoo you really are, and letting that truth revitalize your life. If this would feel fun and supportive for you, I'd love to have you with us! In this episode I also talk a lot about grief and owning my own process with it this year - I have been feeling grief stricken a lot so far this month, and I believe so many others have been too. This is a piece of the Own Your Energy process and journey, so I share more about that here.

This is an open & vulnerable Monday morning share about the challenges I'm facing at the moment while I try to stay present and intentional in every precious moment of life. Join me to come back to the present, find stillness, gentleness and intention, and feel an opening in your pain. I would love to witness you in any way via email or on instagram. If you are ready to take the next step in your journey with a coach, you can find out more about my work here.

I have been reflecting a lot on my personal breaking points, the ones I have experienced related to my mind, body, and emotions, and the call they have gifted me to a deeper alignment with my true self and the way of life I am called into each time. Today I share each story as I hope they are deeply encouraging to you if you have or are currently experiencing a breaking point. They are so painful, yet so much beauty and deep connection to your life and truth can come from them. If you find yourself approaching a breaking point or bridge right now, I recorded a guided process/meditation to help you connect more deeply to this moment and gain clarity as you move forward. Thank you as always for witnessing my journey and tuning into yours. If you are desiring more support, please reach out or book a session with me here www.deeplynourishedforlife.com; you can also access other guided meditations and daily practices and prompts for transformation there.

In this episode, I interview Melissa Costello. We chat everything from adrenal fatigue, how dieting can lead to binge eating and worse, her take on veganism, and more. Melissa is a Transformational Eating Coach, Author, Speaker, and Holistic Nutritionist. Her years of work as a private, plant-based chef for celebrity trainer, Tony Horton creator of P90x, organically led her to work with her clients on a much deeper level when she recognized the struggles they had with consistent, healthy eating and sustainable weight loss. Her mission is to empower busy professionals to stop the struggle with yo-yo dieting, weight loss, and food obsession so they can live a life of freedom without restriction, deprivation or rules. Melissa’s in-depth training in Spiritual Psychology, Clinical Nutrition and holistic coaching along with her own personal struggles provides the foundation for her clients to experience powerful breakthroughs and sustainable, profound transformation.  To learn more about Melissa, visit www.karmachow.com. For more specific episode notes, visit www.deeplynourishedforlife.com/23 ___________ If you're ready to transform your health so you can live the life you've always imagined (without pesky symptoms that derail you each day or month) check out the self-led or group Well Woman Reset Program. I created this program to help amazing, purpose-drive women that struggle with their hormones, periods, & fertility balance their bodies naturally so they can finally live the lives they've always imagined without their physical health falling apart. I want you to finally have the energy and confidence you need to live your fullest life, no body & hormone distress included. This program will take you there! You can get started here. If you have questions about the program or working 1:1 with me, email contact@deeplynourishedforlife.com

**Please note: I use my relationship, and the relationship of my client mentioned, as a reference in this episode. The respective heteronormative references and pronouns in this episode are by no means meant to exclude non hetero identifying or Queer identifying women. All of the same themes and information can be applied to all non-trans (due to possible hormonal differences) Queer identifying women. I will make sure to address this more in future shows on libido and include all gender identities. I hope this information is still helpful to you.**  In this episode, we are jumping into an extremely important topic of libido! I believe it is not openly discussed enough when it comes to women's health, and libido actually goes much beyond your hormones and physical health.

On this episode of Deeply Nourished for Life, I dive into one of the most frequently observed activities that puts a major damper on your health and journey: self-doubt.  Self-doubt creeps often while trying to heal and desiring results, but not knowing where you find the answers. However, it only makes things worse and holds us back from feeling free, enjoying our journeys, and by creating a lot of added stress that keeps our bodies suffering.  During this show, I mention checking out episode #8 on stress and its effect on your health & hormones, and all the most recent solo episode on mindset (#18).  *** I also announce that the Spring Live Well Women Reset program will be starting May 6th, and enrollment is open now.

Do you know what the #1 overlooked ingredient to feeling vibrant, energized, balanced, and hopeful in your healing process is? Mindset. Yes, of course, the food matters (I'm a nutritionist remember!). Of course your sleep, your movement patterns, your immune system, your stress....they all play into it daily and in the long term. But if you've ever found it hard to stay consistent with any of the above, it's probably because there is a missing ingredient to your formula. Mindset! Episode #18 of the Deeply Nourished for Life podcast walks you through a 5 step process for transforming your mindset so you can transform your body.

These impactful lifestyle factors could be flying under your radar & also secretly contributing to you feeling off or out of balance! I recently returned home from a trip to South America, and I noticed my body being quickly effected (oh hey sore boobs!) by three elements that I wasn't expecting to be so powerful, so quickly. I lived in Chile for 5+ years and never realized how their factors were throwing me off--but after visiting again (and knowing a lot more know) I noticed them almost instantly upon arriving. In this episode, I explain each factor, how it influences our body and hormones, as well as the supplements & techniques I used while traveling to support my body and minimize their negative effects!
