We both stress the need for women to seek supportive healthcare providers and embrace this transitional period. Tune in!

Have you ever noticed that your allergy symptoms seem to flare up at certain times in your cycle? Or that your migraines, fatigue, or skin issues seem to follow a pattern each month? It turns out, your hormones and histamine levels are more connected than you might think. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Carrie Jones, an internationally recognized expert in women's health and hormones, to break down this fascinating link. We uncover how estrogen affects histamine, why perimenopause can send symptoms into overdrive, and what you can do to regain balance. If you've been struggling with cyclical symptoms and haven't been able to pinpoint the cause, this episode is a must-listen. Key Takeaways: Hormones and Histamine: The Surprising Connection Estrogen plays a direct role in how your body processes histamine, which is why some women feel more allergic, itchy, or inflamed around ovulation and their cycle. Why Your Symptoms Fluctuate Throughout the Month Your hormones shift every single day, influencing histamine levels. This explains why you might feel great one week and miserable the next. Perimenopause and the Hormone Rollercoaster As you approach menopause, estrogen and progesterone become unpredictable, leading to increased histamine-related issues like headaches, fatigue, skin reactions, and sleep disturbances. Migraines, PMS, and the Histamine Link Many hormonal migraines are tied to histamine spikes. If you get migraines around ovulation or before your period, histamine might be a key player. How to Test for Histamine and Hormone Imbalances From symptom tracking to blood tests and DUTCH testing, here's how to uncover whether histamine is driving your hormonal chaos. The Role of Progesterone in Keeping Histamine in Check Low progesterone means estrogen and histamine can run wild, creating a cascade of inflammation and symptoms. Supporting progesterone levels can be a game-changer. Practical Steps to Balance Hormones and Reduce Histamine Symptoms Learn the key nutrients and lifestyle changes—like magnesium, zinc, and toxin reduction—that can help regulate both hormones and histamine for long-term relief. Understanding the connection between histamine and hormones is empowering. If you've been dealing with unexplained symptoms like migraines, itchy skin, bloating, or fatigue that seem to cycle with your hormones, you're not imagining it—there's a real biological link. By identifying patterns, testing the right markers, and making targeted adjustments, you can start feeling better.

On the PRmoment Podcast this week we're going to be discussing whether the cost of technology made it harder than ever to start up a PR firm? Or are the barriers to entry at an all time low?One of the things many of us really love about the PR sector is its dynamism. Do great work and you can fly. This dynamism has been fuelled over many years by a constant stream of new entrants to the PR agency market.But is this dynamism now threatened? Does the cost of technology, for so long an enabler of agency start ups, now mean that to access the full set of technology and tools you need to service clients, the era of low barrier to entry to the PR agency market is drawing to a close.Or has the continuous development of tech and software meant that the costs continue to fall?On the show today to have this debate we have 2 agency founders. Carrie Jones and Archana Jain.Carrie is the CEO at JPA Health, an independent healthcare communications firm in America. She founded the firm in 2007. It now has 150 full time employees and has taken minority PE investment. Carrie believes that the cost of technology and software has meant that it has become prohibitively expensive for new PR agencies to start up.Archana is the managing director of PR Pundit Havas Red in India, one of India's leading consumer PR firms. Archana founded PR Pundit in 1998 before selling the firm to Havas Red last year.Archana believes that technology has made the cost of starting your own PR business cheaper than ever.Can they both be right?Before we start, we've now launched our PR Masterclass: The Intersection of Data, Planning and Measurement. Attend this PR Masterclass to hear from experts on the latest techniques, tools and case studies about the use of data in modern communications. Early bird ticket prices are available until December 20th.

They don't give you a competitive advantage.”“In the US market in order to be competitive with the big agencies, you need Google Cloud partnerships, you need access to big data. Off the shelf AI and generative AI solutions is not enough. It needs to be a proprietary closed database supplemented and trained by a data scientist.”“The data and compliance standards required in a multi market have a different complexity.”“The level of compliance, the level of large data purchases, the level of expertise to tweak, modify all of the data solutions. For me it's never been harder and it's super, super expensive”26 mins Carrie and Archana talk though the PR tools markets in the US and India.

Ali Daddo and Mary Doube are on a mission to support women worldwide in feeling less alone and more empowered on their peri+menopausal journeys with their Aviiana platform. It's crazy to think that we weren't talking about this phase that 100% of women go through who live long enough, just a handful of years ago - in today's show when I mention I did a show on Perimenopause with Dr Carrie Jones a few years ago, Mary said “Wow how groundbreaking” - there was nothing 6 years ago online. I did that show because people in our community had begun to ask and talk about it. The topic has become a mainstay since then. Thank GOSH. GenX decided: Nope: Women will not suffer silently right when they need more support and more answers than ever. Capacity, mood, tolerance, ability… they can feel like they disappear overnight. Everything can feel like it hurts, bones can break, shoulders can freeze, ears can itch, your mouth can burn or taste metallic, periods can become heavier, lighter, disappear, come back, weight can p-ile on, depression can set in, anxiety can feel unbearable… and? Some women can breeze through seeming not to experience much.This show, is 3 women chatting very honestly about our experiences, sharing insights, and what's helping us through it. I hope for the mid-lifers and beyond in our community, it will provide a good “oh thank gosh it's not just me” as well as a good giggle at some of the shares. We also hope it provides a little kindling for you to decide that this could be an epic new chapter - minus the toxic positivity if you're in the thick of it. Thank you to this month's show sponsors for helping you make your low tox swaps easier: @ausclimate gives you 10% off their range for the whole of 2024, with brilliant Winix Air Purifiers, the best Dehumidifiers I've ever used, their energy-efficient heating range and their new air circulators! code LOWTOXLIFE https://bit.ly/ShopAusclimate@ediblebeautyau has a bumper Low Tox Swaps Aussie beauty offer with 40% off their huge Black Friday sale + extra freebies depending on your cart amount, such as the Body Whip, LED wand, Silk pillow case and mystery gifts - Code LOWTOXLIFE and you'll see it as an extra 5% off their already loaded 35% off.

Dr. Jones and I are here to remind you that each phase is an opportunity to make choices that support your body and mind. So tune in, take notes, and get ready to embrace this journey with confidence. Let's make each stage of life as healthy and fulfilling as possible! Key Takeaways: Perimenopause is a transitional period marked by fluctuating hormone levels, potentially starting as early as a woman's 30s, which often leads to a variety of physical and emotional symptoms. Environmental toxins and endocrine disruptors can significantly impact the onset and severity of menopausal symptoms, highlighting the importance of detoxification and lifestyle changes. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) emerges as a valuable option for many, with the potential to alleviate symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats, while also impacting heart health and bone density. The integrative approach, combining hormone therapy with lifestyle interventions—like diet, exercise, and stress management—offers a promising strategy for enhancing healthspan and longevity in women. Monitoring hormonal changes through tests like FSH levels and a focus on dietary diversity can aid in managing symptoms more effectively during menopause.   More of  Dr. Carrie Jones: Carrie Jones, ND, FABNE, MPH, MSCP, is a globally renowned expert in women's health and hormones, with over 20 years of experience as a speaker, consultant, author, and educator.

Our podcast title is “How To Write a Book Description That Gets Readers Tingling All Over” and that just sounds naughty, doesn't it? And it is a little naughty because this, my friends, is about selling a book, your book, and that requires being a little bit sexy. Sexy is something I, Carrie, am very very bad at. Let's start by thinking about it this way: A book description is an adverstisement for your book. Writing a bad ad for your book doesn't make you a sucky novelist. It just makes you unskilled at that. And that's okay. You've been learning character development and plotting and novel structure and pacing. It's okay to not know this part of the book world too. Yet. Here are the things you need to know about how to write a book description MAKE IT BETWEEN 150 AND 250 WORDS You want it to not be as long as the book. Or even as long as a novella. Or even as long as this post. Any longer? People apparently stop paying attention. FOCUS ON THE BARE PLOT MINIMUM AND THE HERO/PROTAGONIST Show us how the main character's decision has set them toward the adventure of the book. MAKE IT IN THE THIRD PERSON The third person is when you talk about other people and don't use the “I.” So, Carrie Jones and Shaun Farrar decided to adopt a hamster, little did they know, it was a zombie. Not We adopted a zombie hamster. DO NOT BE CHEESY You don't want to go all fancy-pants on the book description. Stay away from adverbs and adjectives and a zillion clauses. Simple wins. So, don't write: In the adorable town of Bar Harbor, Maine where tourist avidly romp in the summer and locals stoically manage the hard winters beneath the mini mountains and rocky coast, two hard-working podcasters tried to adopt a small rodent. HOOK THEM IN Book hooks happen in the first pages of the story, but they also need to happen in story descriptions. A good way to do this is to show how your hero is unlikely to achieve their goal on their adventure. Absolutely clueless podcasters Carrie Jones and Shaun Farrar decided to adopt a hamster, hopelessly hoping for something easy to love. Little did they know that Hammy the Hamster was a zombie. MAKE YOUR WORD CHOICE COUNT AND WORK FOR THE BOOK If you use one or two words that are emotional and full of power, you can impact the reader and make them want your book. Our book looks like some quirky fantasy, right? We know that from the plot. If it was a mystery, we might use a word like MURDER> Two podcasters. One zombie hamster. And a little Maine town about to host a million tourists. Carrie Jones and Shaun Farrar weren't expecting that the hamster they'd adopted to help their podcast ratings would end up a zombie. Or that it would threaten all the tourists heading in to celebrate Acadia National Park's bicentennial. Now, these clueless podcasters, looking for a way out of their podunk town have a choice: find a way to get people to listen to them and protect both the tourists and Hammy the Hamster or just give up and hunker down with some Doritos (Hammy's favorite) before it's too late. The future of Bar Harbor, Maine—and a million tourists—depend on them. DOG TIP FOR LIFE Hook ‘em and they'll buy your book. In dog world, they'll give you a treat when you hook ‘em. Show them what they need but bring them along, wanting more. PLACE TO SUBMIT These are from Duotrope which has an AMAZING list.

It pulls up all the manhole covers. It just opens and says, get out. You can go now. And it's great for your detoxification pathways. Not just estrogen, but chemicals and toxicants and other hormones that just need to go, medications that are on their way out, all those things." [00:13:35] – Dr. Carrie Jones   "I feel a lot of empathy for all the women everywhere, because you and I are in this field. So, we know what's going on biologically, physiologically. But if you have no idea, I 100% empathize with you. I know it can feel rough. And I know in medicine, it's not very well talked about or told about. And so even if you go to your OBGYN, you know, they may be more focused on the younger baby years. That's what their expertise in. They are not an expert yet in perimenopause and menopause. And so, it can be really frustrating."

One of the most colorful criminals in 19th-century California history was a man that you may not have ever heard of - Charley Flynn, aka Charles Mortimer. Flynn was a charmer and a ne'er-do-well whose life was something right out of a movie - a seemingly non-stop series of dramatic robberies and daring escapes. Flynn's activities turned terribly violent, however, after partnering with fellow criminal Carrie Jones, and culminated in two horrific murders and his eventual execution. My guest is author and editor of the Wild West History Association Journal, Matthew Bernstein. He joins me to talk about his book "Hanging Charley Flynn: The Short and Violent Life of the Boldest Criminal in Frontier California".
