*Trigger warning: we share personal experiences about miscarriage in this episode*In this heartwarming (and off-the-cuff) episode, Jess and Rye sit down with their mom, Candace Burch — hormone health educator, founder of Your Hormone Balance, and living testament to aging with vibrance. Candace shares pivotal life lessons from her 20's, 30's and 40's. From her first shaky steps with hormonal birth control in the 1960s, to getting pregnant in her late 30s, to navigating perimenopause and ultimately becoming a fierce advocate for hormone testing and natural balance. This candid conversation is packed with wisdom for women at every life stage.Key Talking Points:— The powerful (and unintended) impact of going on hormonal birth control in her 20s — acne scars, mood swings, and why she wishes she'd had cycle awareness tools.— How feeling “broody” in her mid-30s led to embracing motherhood after years of living footloose in Europe (and selling art out of a van in France!).— Her traumatic miscarriage experience in Paris, what she learned about progesterone, and how it actually sparked her desire to have children.— The reality of having kids in her late 30s and early 40s, then heading straight into perimenopause with unpredictable moods and hot flashes.— How hormone testing, lifestyle changes, and bioidentical progesterone cream changed everything — plus why personalized testing is essential.— What women in their 20s & 30s should start doing now to support future hormone balance, fertility, and graceful aging.— Why it's never selfish to prioritize your health, and how Candace keeps thriving (and dancing past midnight) at 77.Resources Mentioned:

Why are so many women screaming through IUD insertions... and being told it's normal? In this episode of Pleasure Pathways, I'm sharing my own experience navigating the medical system to get an IUD—and asking the bigger question: If this pain is so common, why isn't anyone doing more about it? We'll dig into the lack of pain management, the privilege gap in reproductive healthcare, and why men are offered Valium for vasectomies while women are handed ibuprofen and told to “just breathe.” We'll talk about how systemic misogyny, outdated research standards, and class bias all shape the care we receive—and why advocating for our bodies is often met with silence. This episode is personal, emotional, and absolutely necessary—because too many of us have been taught to be grateful for care that ignores our pain. And we're not doing that anymore. Whether you love your IUD, hate it, or you're somewhere in between—this conversation matters.Stay connected here Connect with me on Instagram Email me here: Lauren@ohyeahcoaching.com
Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! This week's episode began as an investigation into a silly meme and quickly evolved into a crash course into the crossroads where the civil rights movement, Black Liberation Ideology and turn of the century occultism converged to produce the Nation of Islam whos mythic theology details a 6,000 year old big-headed black demiurgic creator being who invented the white race which, in said ideology, is sometimes referred to as “the devil.” In the free side of the show we will discuss the rise of Yakub as described by the Nation of Islam's longtime leader Elijah Mohamed, how aspects of this mythology are active and even pressing in today's cultural landscape and how big pockets of the civil rights movement root structure intersected with popular turn of the century occultism to produce Black Liberation Theology in America. In the extended show we start by indulging our inner history nerd and discover the factual basis upon which Yakub may have been based before settling in with our reading glasses and browse Elijah Mohamed's words in Message to the Blackman of America where the interesting details about Yakub's creations are described in vivid and hilarious detail. Ok, I think you've been thoroughly warned. Thank you and enjoy the show!

IUDs, or intrauterine devices, are an effective long-term birth control option. But did you know that there are different types of IUDs, and that IUDs can be used for other purposes than just contraception? In this episode, we talk about what IUDs are, how they work, dig into the differences between hormonal and non-hormonal types, usages of IUDs other than for birth control, how it's inserted, etc. I am joined with my co-host and good friend, Touseef Mirza
In April 2025, some organizations and health centers receiving Title X funding were given sudden notice by the current administration that critical funding would be withheld. This action by the federal government threatens roughly $65.8 million in Title X funds and implicates an estimated 846,000 patients. It has resulted in massive layoffs, stopped contracts, mental strain, and confusion for both employees and patients. As patients are not receiving the care they need due to a stop in funding, possible results could include rising rates of unintended pregnancies, rising rates of STIs, poorer maternal health outcomes, and later diagnoses of breast and cervical cancers. We sit down with co-founders and executive directors of some of these impacted organizations, including: Michelle Trupiano, Executive Director for the Missouri Family Health Council, andDanielle Lampton, and Jamie Bardwell, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Directors at Converge in Jackson, Mississippi.For more information, check out Aborsh: https://www.aborsh.com/Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

This is a Fan Fav episode. From the very start of this conversation, I was fired up! I brought Dr. Aviva Romm on Women of Impact—an M.D., midwife, herbalist, and author of Hormone Intelligence—to unravel the web of confusion and shame that keeps so many women feeling powerless about their hormones, periods, and health.

Pimples aren't just for teenagers, especially when they are caused by hormones. Women struggling with hormonal acne are often given one option and one option only: birth control. But what if you don't want to use birth control? What if you want to get to the root of the problem? Is it possible? Is there a solution for hormonal acne? These were the questions our client Maddie faced after years of acne struggles and very few answers. She joins us to share her honest story of deciding to come off of birth control and seek healing for acne that had plagued her for years. I appreciate Maddie's willingness to share her story because hormonal acne is something so many women face -- and without any hope of answers! If you feel that way, don't miss this episode. Spoiler alert: with time and effort, she found the answers and healing she hoped for. NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences.Guest Bio: Maddie works as a journalist, photographer, and storyteller in Jackson, Tennessee. She has been married to her husband Zach for a little over one year and they love to travel together and host people in their home. Maddie's experience with healing her body and hormones has been a long journey that has drawn her closer to the Lord and has transformed the way she lives her daily life now.Other episodes you might enjoy:Ep. 19: PCOS 101Ep. 128: Healing irregular cycles and reversing PCOS -- Emily's StoryEp. 152: Do PCOS cycles work with fertility awareness methods?Ep. 106: Creighton vs. NaProTechnology - What are they?Send us a textSupport the showOther great ways to connect with Woven Natural Fertility Care: Learn the Creighton Model System with us!

Hey sister, I've been wanting to record this episode for a long time. Today, I'm talking about a topic that is incredibly personal—and one that many women have never heard fully explained: birth control and its impact on your fertility. I share my own story of being on the pill and navigating confusing church counsel, and I unpack what's actually happening in your body on birth control—including the copper IUD. We also go deep spiritually today. I walk through Genesis 38 and the story of Tamar—and how God's justice and heart for women ties directly into this conversation. Episode Highlights: What birth control really does to your body and hormones How post-birth control syndrome affects your fertility Why detoxing is so important before pregnancy A faith-filled invitation to steward your body well If you've ever been on birth control, or you're walking through the confusing road of trying to conceive after IUDs or pills, this episode will equip you with clarity and encouragement. In Him, Bekah Resources & Links: ✨ I've put together a free faith-filled booklet to help guide you through this journey. It's called Faith-Driven Fertility, and it's full of practical steps and encouragement for trusting God while supporting your body for conception.
Is your body truly prepared for pregnancy—or just running on empty?On this episode of Get Well Better, The Lanby's Medical Director, Dr. Stephanie Wallman, joins Chloe to unpack the modern fertility crisis.

She outlines her comprehensive, functional medicine-based approach to fertility—one that supports your mitochondria, hormones, gut, liver, and nervous system over the course of a full year.You'll also hear how to identify and heal from chronic stress, why adrenal recovery is essential for hormone balance, and the small, daily habits—like slowing down before meals or taking a moment alone in your car—that can create powerful shifts in your reproductive resilience.RESOURCES: CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction to Fertility and Functional Medicine01:59 Understanding Fertility Challenges03:11 The Impact of Birth Control on Fertility07:42 Mitochondrial Health and Nutrition for Fertility10:09 Detoxification and Preparing for Pregnancy11:57 Common Mistakes in the Conception Journey14:11 Stress and Its Effects on Fertility18:13 The Role of Hormones in Conception19:28 Adrenal Support and Lifestyle Changes24:22 Navigating Second Pregnancies and Recovery

It's a fascinating dual biography that brings to life two complicated leaders of the birth control movement in the early 1900s, and the lasting impact of their actions and interactions. We spoke early this year, and I loved getting to hear more about Stephanie's research and writing process, especially how she thought about narrative structure and revising with feedback.
In this episode, we're talking all about one of my favorite topics—freedom of movement during labor! I'm diving into why it's so important to listen to your body and move in ways that feel good as you work through contractions. From squatting to hands-and-knees to standing and swaying, we'll explore how different positions can make a big difference in your comfort and your baby's progress. Spoiler: lying on your back isn't your only option—and it's definitely not the best one for everyone. I'm also sharing practical tips and exercises to help you prepare, plus how to talk to your provider ahead of time so your birth preferences are respected. You were made to move, mama!Show Notes HERE!Links Mentioned:My Essential Birth CourseMy Essential Birth Postpartum CourseMy Essential Birth InstagramQuestions to Ask Your OBQuestions to Ask Your MidwifeGET IN TOUCH!

In Episode 101 of Trail Society, OB/GYN, ultrarunner, and mom of two Dr. Lauren Puretz joins Corrine, Keely, and Hillary for a candid and insightful conversation about puberty, birth control, and fertility in female athletes. Drawing from both her medical practice and personal experience as an elite endurance athlete, Dr. Puretz breaks down complex topics like energy availability, menstrual health, and hormonal birth control, offering practical advice for athletes navigating these issues. The discussion highlights how puberty and menstruation are affected by training load, the importance of not masking menstrual irregularities with birth control, and how coaches and caregivers can support young athletes during this pivotal time. The conversation also explores fertility concerns in current and retired athletes, including whether period loss during early athletic years may impact long-term reproductive health. Dr. Puretz discusses proactive steps athletes can take, such as hormone testing and fertility planning, and the growing trend of egg freezing among those delaying parenthood. Her honest and empowering perspective sheds light on the lifelong health journey female athletes face, from adolescence to adulthood, and sets the stage for a deeper dive into pregnancy and postpartum care in the next episode.

Today's topic is incredibly intimate to me and something I have never shared in depth before today but I know if it helps one woman with this issue, it will be worth it. We are going to talk about hair loss today and while conventional wisdom says it's just apart of getting older, that's the farthest from the truth. We'll dive into the reality around hair loss, the shame I felt around it, how hormones and genetics play a role, and what we do at the SF coaching method to provide individualized solutions to this heartbreaking problem.

Is hormonal birth control affecting more than just pregnancy prevention? In this Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I am joined by Dr. Sarah Hill, an evolutionary psychologist and author who explains the surprising ways birth control pills influence women's brains, behavior, and mate selection. We discuss how synthetic hormones alter women's natural cycles, changing partner preferences and affecting emotional responses. We also explore the fascinating science behind mate selection through an evolutionary lens, why men are attracted to women at peak fertility, and how birth control can disrupt the pheromonal cues that influence attraction. Dr. Sarah Hill is an evolutionary psychologist, author, and researcher who earned her Ph.D. at the University of Texas at Austin working with Dr. David Buss. Her research focuses on understanding behavior and motivation through the lens of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, with particular emphasis on women's psychology, hormones, and sexual motivation.
