Send us a textDoulas play a critical role in supporting women through childbirth—but their work is anything but easy, and their work isn't for the faint of heart. Many face disrespect from providers and routinely witness coercion, misinformation, and violations of informed consent. Even with their deep commitment to the women they serve, doulas often feel powerless in the face of hospital systems driven by profit and control. Still, many doulas are called to this work—and despite everything, they continue with resilience, purpose, and unwavering commitment.Doulas are indispensable. The evidence is clear: When a doula is present, C-section rates drop -- as do all other routine interventions. Physiologic birth is more likely. Breastfeeding is more successful. And most important, mothers walk away feeling more satisfied and supported. Doulas are, and always have been, the original birth keepers. Their presence makes birth safer, more humane, and more aligned with what women actually want and need.In today's episode, we hear directly from doulas about what they're up against—and why, despite it all, they keep showing up. We also share our reflections on what it means to support doulas as they continue this vital work.**********Our sponsors:Postpartum Soothe -- Herbs and padsicles to heal and comfort.Needed -- Our favorite nutritional products for before, during, and after pregnancy.

About My Guest Catharine Arnston Founder & CEO of ENERGYbits® Inc. Algae Nutrition Expert Catharine Arnston is an expert in algae nutrition, a wellness thought leader, an experienced entrepreneur, and a sought-after speaker. Catharine has a PhD, MBA, BA Hons, and is a board-certified health coach. Catharine's journey into the fascinating world of algae began in 2008 when her younger sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would improve her healing. Catharine left her 25- year corporate career to help her sister identify which foods were alkaline and this led her to algae - the most alkaline, chlorophyll-rich, high-protein, nutrient-dense food in the world. When Catharine learned that algae's vast healing properties were documented in tens of thousands of scientific studies but that none of these studies or benefits were known outside of Asia, she knew she needed to do something. And so ENERGYbits® was born. Catharine has spent the last fifteen years researching algae, writing papers, giving presentations, lecturing at conferences, and speaking on 300+ podcasts to explain the benefits of algae. To do this, she read thousands of scientific papers that detailed, validated, and confirmed algae's nutritional, health, longevity, and global benefits. Remarkably none of these findings are known by consumers. It is Catharine's vision and passion to change this and her PhD in natural health has given her the scientific fluency that allows her to explain algae with such simplicity and clarity, it quickly becomes obvious why algae is something we all urgently need. Catharine's passion for algae is contagious, inspiring and thought-provoking. Her efforts have led to algae being better understood by educators, consumers, doctors, and wellness practitioners. Catharine's extensive knowledge and playful personality is both entertaining and educating and her speaking style leaves audiences informed, uplifted, and hopeful.

Not fish food but brain food and gut food. That's how you should understand algae. I was blown away by the research on algae and its most powerful component superoxide dismutase. From MS to Alzheimer's and PTSD, the super nutrient profile of spiralina and chlorella is an energy and mental performance game-changer that costs less than $1 a day. Join me and Catharine Arnston in this empowering algae educational masterclass.  Catharine Arnston founded ENERGYbits® after discovering the extraordinary health benefits of algae while researching ways to support her sister's recovery from breast cancer. She learned that algae is the most nutrient-dense, plant-based, and alkaline food on the planet—packed with 64% protein, 40 vitamins and minerals, and backed by over 100,000 scientific studies, as well as endorsements from NASA and the United Nations. Despite its long history of use in Asia, algae remained virtually unknown in the West, which inspired Catharine to spend a decade building ENERGYbits® into a trusted, national brand. Today, her company offers pure, toxin-free, Non-GMO algae tablets that support energy, satiety, and nutrition in a sustainable, eco-friendly form.Join us as we explore:Everything algae - it's unique evolutionary history, why Cathrine calls it “spirit-lina”, its nutritional and disease fighting profile and why it's an energy and cognitive performance game-changer for anyone older than 40. How algae works as an ATP catalyst, boosts the most powerful antioxidant superoxide dismutase and keeps you younger for longer.What sets ENERGYbits apart from other algae products, why to choose the blue one (chlorella) or the green one (spirulina) and why professional athletes are using up to 75 tablets pre-game for maximum energy and focus.Incredible algae studies - MS tremors disappear, 50% HRV increase, mitochondria maximization and miraculous brain healing.Contact: Website: https://energybits.com/Mentions:Research - Algae Research, https://energybits.com/pages/algae-researchNon-profit - Grey Team, https://www.greyteam.orgDiagnostic - mescreen, https://mescreen.co.zaSupport the showFollow Steve's socials: Instagram | LinkedIn | YouTube | Facebook | Twitter | TikTokSupport the show on Patreon:As much as we love doing it, there are costs involved and any contribution will allow us to keep going and keep finding the best guests in the world to share their health expertise with you.

In Episode 161 of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi sits down with Dr. Catharine Arnston, founder and CEO of ENERGYbits, to explore one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet — algae. With over 15 years dedicated to researching and educating about spirulina and chlorella, Dr. Arnston shares her fascinating journey from a career in international business to becoming a global advocate for algae nutrition. It all started when her sister's battle with breast cancer inspired her to learn about plant-based nutrition and the healing power of alkaline foods.Dr. Arnston explains why spirulina and chlorella are considered superfoods among superfoods — boasting more protein per gram than steak, rich in essential fatty acids, packed with B vitamins, chlorophyll, antioxidants, and powerful compounds like phycocyanin and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Spirulina is an energy-boosting, hunger-satisfying, mitochondria-supporting powerhouse, while chlorella is the ultimate detoxifier, binding to heavy metals, pesticides, mold, and other toxins. Together, they address three major modern health challenges: nutrient deficiencies, toxin overload, and age-related cellular decline.Listeners will learn exactly how to incorporate these foods into their daily lives — from quick energy before workouts to deep detox support at night — and why they're safe for everyone from kids to grandparents (even pets). Dr. Arnston shares specific protocols, including dosages, timing, and pairing strategies for maximum benefits, as well as unique “biohacks” combining algae with red light therapy, cold plunges, and saunas.Whether you're looking to boost your athletic performance, support longevity, enhance detoxification, or simply fill nutritional gaps in a clean, convenient way, this episode will open your eyes to the untapped potential of algae. Plus, you'll hear Dr. Arnston's vision for bringing algae farming to the U.S. — making this ancient food a modern health staple.Key Takeaways:Dr. Arnston's journey from international business to algae nutrition expertSpirulina = “nourishment in” for energy, focus, protein, and mitochondria healthChlorella = “toxins out” for detox, gut health, and immune supportSpirulina has 3x more protein (by weight) than steak; 64% bioavailable proteinChlorella binds to heavy metals, pesticides, mold, and microplasticsBoth algae are rich in chlorophyll — nature's blood builderNo lectins or oxalates — gentle on digestion and autoimmune-friendlyHigh in B vitamins for energy conversion at the cellular levelContains glutathione and SOD for antioxidant and mitochondrial protectionBiohacks: spirulina before workouts, sauna, or cold plunge; chlorella afterChlorella stimulates peristalsis for healthy bowel movementsSafe for all ages, pets included; easy to travel withNutrient-dense enough to replace multiple supplementsLearn More about Dr. Catharine Arnston and ENERGYbits:Website: https://energybits.com/Use discount code FitFamily at checkout and receive 20% off your order.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/energybits/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/catharinearnston/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ENERGYbits/YouTube:

Send us a textAt 28 weeks, Jessie found out her baby was breech—but instead of panicking, she trusted her gut. She felt strongly that her baby was meant to be born this way. After initially planning a home birth, Jessie began exploring other options and considered traveling to Pennsylvania for a hospital birth with experienced breech providers.But when labor started at 39 weeks, everything shifted. Mid-drive to Pennsylvania, Jessie and her husband decided to turn around and head to Yale New Haven Hospital. There, an OB team unexpectedly supported her birth plan, and her baby was born breech and vaginally—with ease.In this episode, Jessie shares her story of intuition, flexibility, and trust in her body and baby. It's an inspiring reminder that sometimes birth doesn't go according to plan—and that's exactly what makes it beautiful.**********Our sponsors:Postpartum Soothe -- Herbs and padsicles to heal and comfort.Needed -- Our favorite nutritional products for before, during, and after pregnancy.

antihisztamint adott neki, és megnyugtatta.En: Judit acted quickly; she gave him an antihistamine and reassured him.Hu: Aztán döntött: „Megvizsgálom a vizeletmintát és beszélek pár kollégával.”En: Then she decided: "I will examine the urine sample and talk to some colleagues."Hu: Gergő és Judit egy csapatként dolgoztak.En: Gergő and Judit worked as a team.Hu: Gergő az önkormányzattól kért vízmintákat, hogy laborvizsgálatokat kezdeményezzenek.En: Gergő requested water samples from the local government to initiate lab tests.Hu: Közben Judit egy régi orvosi könyvben kutatott lehetséges okok után.En: Meanwhile, Judit was researching possible causes in an old medical book.Hu: Eközben Zoltán a váróteremben ült, a távoli Balatont nézte az ablakon át.En: Meanwhile, Zoltán sat in the waiting room, looking at the distant Balaton through the window.Hu: Hitt benne, hogy fényt derítenek az ügyére.En: He believed they would shed light on his case.Hu: Néhány nap múlva Judit izgatottan sietett vissza a rendőrőrsre.En: A few days later, Judit hurried back to the police station excitedly.Hu: „Megtaláltam!” - kiáltotta.En: "I found it!" she exclaimed.Hu: „Egy ritka algafaj virágzik a tóban.En: "A rare species of algae is blooming in the lake.Hu: Ez okozza az allergiád!”En: That's causing your allergy!"Hu: A felfedezést követően sürgős intézkedéseket tettek.En: Following the discovery, urgent measures were taken.Hu: Figyelmeztették a lakókat, és tájékoztatták a vendégeket.En: The residents were warned, and the guests were informed.Hu: Zoltán óvatosabb lett, de boldog, hogy tudja, mi történik.En: Zoltán became more cautious but happy to know what was happening.Hu: A probléma megoldódott.En: The problem was solved.Hu: Zoltán elkezdett részt venni a természetvédelmi munkákban, Gergő pedig hírnevet szerzett a közösségben, mint megbízható rendőr.En: Zoltán began participating in conservation work, and Gergő gained a reputation in the community as a reliable officer.Hu: Judit pedig megerősödött orvosi tudásában, és fontolóra vette, hogy tovább képezze magát.En: Judit enhanced her medical knowledge and considered further training.Hu: A faluban ismét béke honolt.En: Peace returned to the village.Hu: A Balaton vizén a napfény játszott, és Zoltán újra élvezhette az úszást, most már tudva, hogy vigyázni kell rá.En: The sun played on the waters of Balaton, and Zoltán could enjoy swimming again, now knowing to be careful.Hu: A tó és a közösség épsége most már mindannyiuk kezeiben volt.En: The safety of the lake and the community was now in all of their hands.

Minnesota's clear, cool lakes are heating up over the summer, and those warmer waters can produce a toxic agal bloom.“Blue-green algae is bacteria,” said Kim Laing, a surface monitoring manager with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. “It often looks like pea soup [or] green paint; sometimes it might have a smell to it. It thrives in warm, shallow, nutrient-rich lakes.” Water that's warmer than 75 degrees along with calm, sunny weather is a perfect recipe for blue-green algae, he said. “We have had three to four degrees higher average July and August surface water temperatures in Minnesota lakes than compared to 50 years ago,” Laing said. “Our waters are warming, we have less ice during the winter.” This means ripe conditions for blue-green algal blooms, which can be harmful to people and their pets.To hear the full conversation, click play on the audio player above or subscribe to the Climate Cast podcast.

Send us a textEmily Woodward is a mother of two who planned a home birth for each of her babies. Her first labor began with confidence and joy—and stretched across multiple days, testing her endurance, her trust in her birth team, and her ability to surrender when the path ahead took an unexpected turn. She transferred from home to hospital with a crowning baby. Her second pregnancy was smooth and uneventful—until 31 weeks, when she awoke in the middle of the night to a pool of bright red blood, and everything changed in an instant.A former nurse and longtime believer in physiologic birth, Emily brought deep conviction to both experiences—but found herself making two very different choices, each for necessary reasons. In this episode, she shares how she navigated fear, advocated for herself, and came to find peace and even beauty in how each of her births unfolded, despite neither being at home. Her story is a moving reminder that sometimes the plan can change—twice—and still be exactly right.**********Our sponsors:Silverette Nursing Cups -- Soothe and heal sore nipples with 925 silver nursing cups.Postpartum Soothe -- Herbs and padsicles to heal and comfort.Needed -- Our favorite nutritional products for before, during, and after pregnancy.
