In this episode, I'm sharing a framework I've lived by for years, long before concepts like nervous system regulation and holistic success became mainstream. Drawing from feng shui, Chinese life principles, and feminine leadership, we explore why so many women feel burned out, scattered, or stuck — and how boundaries, when practiced femininely, actually create flow instead of restriction. This conversation reframes boundaries not as rigid rules, but as energetic containers — the architecture that allows creativity, visibility, wealth, and intuition to expand safely. At the center of this episode are the five elements — Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water — and how each one corresponds to a feminine boundary that supports sustainable success in business, personal branding, and money. ✨ In This Episode, We Explore: Why hustle culture fails women (and what ancient systems understood instead) How feng shui extends far beyond your home and into your body, work, and decisions Why boundaries are not masculine — they're a feminine necessity How misaligned energy leads women to overwork instead of real momentum The difference between forcing success and creating the conditions for it ✨ Ready to Go Deeper?

This episode explores how true confidence is built through self-trust, mindset shifts, and leading with belief, especially when titles, validation, and certainty fall away. Guest Anya Cheng is the founder and CEO of Taeler, an AI platform that uses AI to help men choose outfits, and rent them. Having led teams at big brands such as Target, Facebook, eBay, McDonald's, she's a Mentor at ‘500 Startups', Lecturer at Northwestern University, author and a TED speaker. 5 key takeaways: Confidence isn't constant, it grows when you trust your own perspective, not a script or title. Losing external validation can become a powerful catalyst for authentic leadership. Shifting language from “I should” to “I would like to” builds motivation and self-trust. Imposter syndrome appears at every level, and it's most powerful when left unchecked. The most sustainable success comes from building work aligned with what you genuinely care about.

Rose never saw herself as a marathon runner. Growing up, movement felt punitive, something she was forced into rather than chose for herself. In her twenties, that complicated relationship with exercise and food followed her, until consistency, Peloton, and a shift toward body-positive movement slowly changed the way she saw fitness. What started as cycling turned into running, then a half marathon she wasn't fully prepared for, and eventually the realization that when 13.1 stopped feeling scary, maybe 26.2 was possible too.In this episode, Rose walks through training for her first marathon at the Every Woman's Marathon in Scottsdale, including self-doubt, fueling mistakes, rough long runs, unexpected heat, and the mental battle that defined her race. We talk about trusting training when your confidence wavers, leaning on community when things fall apart late in the race, and what it means to cross the finish line carrying proof that you're capable of more than you ever thought. This is a story about rewriting your relationship with movement and learning, mile by mile, that your mind might be your strongest muscle.Follow along with Rose on Instagram at @rosecmeadows!Follow along with the show: 

Rabbit Hole Deep Dive Series: The Vagus Nerve, Aging & Hormones with Coach Debbie Potts, FDN-P, FNTP, Metabolic Health Practitioner Welcome to the Rabbit Hole Deep Dive Series — where Coach Debbie Potts guides you through the complex, interconnected systems that shape your metabolism, hormones, and longevity. In this series, Debbie unpacks one of the most overlooked drivers of midlife health challenges: vagus nerve dysfunction and its downstream impact on thyroid health, sex hormones, blood sugar balance, inflammation, mitochondrial energy, and the aging process. Through detailed explanations, case studies (including Debbie's own GI-MAP, MEScreen, HRV and blood chemistry results), and science-backed strategies, you'll learn: • Why the vagus nerve controls digestion, nutrient absorption, and gut-hormone signaling • How chronic stress suppresses thyroid conversion (T4 → T3) and increases reverse T3 • The role of autonomic balance in menopause, perimenopause, and andropause symptoms • How low vagal tone accelerates aging by impairing mitochondrial function • The connection between HRV, metabolic flexibility, and fat-burning • Early signs of vagus nerve toxicity — and how to reverse it • Practical tools to strengthen vagal tone, reduce inflammation, and rebalance hormones • How Pulsetto Vagus Nerve Stimulation fits into a data-driven recovery strategy Debbie blends her decades of experience as a practitioner and athlete with functional testing, genetic insight, mitochondrial analysis, and real-world lessons from overcoming her own burnout and metabolic chaos. If you feel like you're aging faster than you should… If your metabolism has slowed… If your hormones feel "off" despite doing everything right… If your stress resilience and HRV are declining… This series will help you connect the dots, understand the root cause, and start building your strongest, most resilient Future You.

Pam Farrell - 7 Simple Skills For Every Woman by Bill and Sandi Griffin

If you've ever been dismissed, talked over, or told your hormone symptoms are “just part of aging,” this conversation will change how you think about HRT and hormones.Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is often presented as a simple solution. But for many women, it can become confusing, frustrating, or even makes them feel worse. This episode breaks down why that happens, what most women are never told about hormones, and why HRT is never just about adding more estrogen or progesterone. We explore how hormone metabolism, gut health, liver detox, thyroid function, genetics, and proper testing all play a critical role in whether HRT actually helps or backfires. I'm joined by my dear friend and mentor, Shauna Gourley, a functional health and human potential coach who guides women through perimenopause and menopause after her own hormone crash and medical gaslighting.Tune in for a clear, honest conversation about HRT and hormones that will help you understand what your body is actually asking for, before you make another health decision.Episode Timeline: 00:00 – Welcome + Hormone Focus01:20 – Why Progesterone Matters03:10 – Progesterone vs Estrogen04:40 – Perimenopause Progesterone Drop06:10 – Menopause Hormone Changes07:50 – Low Progesterone Symptoms10:10 – High Progesterone Symptoms12:00 – Stress Drains Progesterone14:30 – Blood Sugar + Hormones16:20 – Thyroid and Progesterone18:00 – Gut Health and Hormones20:00 – Why Testing Matters22:40 – Progesterone Types Explained25:10 – Bioidentical vs Synthetic28:30 – Is Progesterone Safe?31:00 – Talking to Your Doctor33:40 – Detox Before HRT36:00 – Support Progesterone Naturally39:30 – Final Hormone TakeawaysLinks:Book a Hormone Breakthrough Call - https://calendly.com/briatheperiodwhisperer/private-coaching?month=2025-12 Connect with Bria on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bria_period_whisperer/ Learn more about Bria's coaching program: https://www.briatheperiodwhisperer.com/Coaching Subscribe to The Period Whisperer Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-period-whisperer-podcast-perimenopause-menopause/id1617315546 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5w8w0KbRuDwOUoBMzeFOOO YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@bria_period_whisperer

We talk about grace a lot — but do we actually understand it? For many of us, grace feels like the doorway into faith … yet something we quietly try to “maintain” through our own effort. What if God never intended you to earn what He freely gives?In today's episode, writer and Bible teacher Kristel Acevedo joins Meredith Brock and Kaley Olson for a deeply clarifying conversation about the kind of grace Scripture describes — the grace that saves us and keeps us. Through biblical teaching, real-life stories, and practical wisdom, Kristel helps us see why striving leaves us exhausted, how sanctification actually works, and why resting in God's unshakable love is the starting place for real spiritual transformation.If you're tired of trying to be “good enough,” wrestling with shame, or wondering whether you've used up all of God's patience, this episode will breathe fresh hope into your heart. Grace isn't a one-time gift. It's the ongoing work of God in you — today, tomorrow, and every day after.You'll learn:What Scripture means when it says we are saved by grace — and why that same grace is what transforms us daily.The difference between working for God's acceptance and living from your secure identity in Christ.How sanctification really happens, and why slowing down helps us recognize the Holy Spirit's work in us.Why sharing grace with others matters, and how God can use your life to draw people to Himself.Resources From This Episode:When life feels uncertain, God's promises are not.

Dr. Natalie Crawford, board-certified OB-GYN and REI, breaks down how your hormones shift across your 20s, 30s, 40s, and beyond, and what you can actually do in each decade to protect your fertility, brain, bones, and long‑term health.

I'm joined by our in-house HTMA expert, Rachel Mahalow, to break down the one functional lab test I believe every woman should run to truly understand what's going on under the hood.

This is the episode every woman needs to hear. Because most of us think money in relationships will just sort itself out, or that breaking up is something that happens to other people. Sorry to burst that love bubble, but today is here to show you this mindset can cost you everything… and how to protect yourself (while still building a life together). To do that, we’re joined by special guest Claire Walczak, a family law expert who sees the reality of this every day. She walks us through the early money decisions most people barely think about and how those choices shape power, security, and options over time. You’ll leave this episode knowing what actually protects you financially in a relationship, which conversations are worth having sooner rather than later, and how to set yourself up without turning love into a legal strategy.In this ep:

For Woven client, Abby, the experience of cycle charting provided far more insight than simple family planning. It opened up a whole new world of discovery as she recognized the role her reproductive hormones played in her emotional state and creative potential. After charting her cycles with the Creighton Model System, she began working with these natural rhythms instead of against them and her creative and personal endeavors came alive. As a professional dancer and athlete, she used to berate herself for having needs and strengths that morphed throughout her cycle. Now, she changed her perspective to honor them. I'm excited for you to hear more from Abby herself in this episode. Enjoy!NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences.GUEST BIO: Abby is a Jesus follower and professional dancer.

Send us a textBusiness insurance isn't exciting.But losing everything you've worked for is a lot worse.This week on Women & Money: The Shit We Don't Talk About, we're digging into business insurance without the jargon, the fear tactics, or the overwhelm.We're joined by Carmen Alvarez, owner of The Insurance Pros and a Purse Strings Approved Professional, who makes insurance make sense for women business owners. Carmen strips this topic down to what actually matters so you can protect your business without blowing your budget or your energy.In this conversation, Carmen breaks down why general liability is non-negotiable, why being “too small” is actually the riskiest place to be, and how the right insurance gives you permission to think bigger without fear. We also talk about real life scenarios where missing coverage almost shut businesses down, why waiting until something goes wrong is the biggest mistake women make, and how to layer coverage intentionally instead of buying everything at once.This episode is supported by Randall Franklin of Franklin Wealth Management, who works with female entrepreneurs and business owners to create personalized financial strategies that support their entire life journey, not just their business. Randall's approach starts by understanding the full picture, both financial and non-financial, so your plan reflects what matters most to you.

Believe it or not, but there is as much cardiovascular risk associated with smoking as there is with the drop in estrogen in perimenopause and menopause.  But don't worry–  I've brought the hilarious, talented, and brilliant Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj onto the podcast to dive into why midlife is a uniquely important—and often overlooked—window for cardiometabolic health, and what you can do about it.  In this entertaining episode, Dr. Bhojraj breaks down why the drop in estrogen matters just as much as traditional risk factors and why so many women's concerns are missed in conventional care.  We also reframe hormone therapy not as symptom management, but as a powerful tool for optimization, longevity, and long-term heart and metabolic health.  With humor and clarity, this conversation reminds you that you don't need to overhaul your entire life —small, strategic changes truly add up. Tune in here to learn how to simply and efficiently boost your health, starting with your heart!  Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj is an interventional cardiologist and Institute for Functional Medicine–certified physician who bridges conventional cardiology with functional and lifestyle medicine. He spent 20 years treating disease with procedures and medications, but then shifted his focus toward uncovering root causes to help patients reverse chronic cardiometabolic conditions through food, sleep, stress optimization, and lifestyle change. Dr. Sanjay is the founder of the Well12 program and host of The Curious Cardiologist podcast, where he explores the science of longevity, inflammation, and human performance. His passion is helping people reclaim their health through simple, lasting changes. IN THIS EPISODE How Dr. Bhojraj moved into functional cardiac medicine  What age to start paying closer attention to cardiovascular health Advocating for yourself and what labs you should be asking for  Why taking care of your cardiovascular health is crucial during midlife hormonal changes  Looking at your metabolic health before starting HRT  Metabolic markers to pay attention to in midlife  Non-negotiable small tweaks to improve your heart health  How bringing joy to your life can be the best tool for your health  QUOTES “We need to talk about sleep, we need to have an intelligent discussion about diet and what that means. And we need to think about hormones too, because hormonal health is so central to cardiovascular health, and that is just not something that we talk about in cardiovascular training.” “It's like contributing to your 401k in your twenties, right? Like $200 doesn't seem like a lot, but when you're 65, you're now retiring a millionaire– depending on how well you invest, because you made those small, little, little habits, those little changes. So that decade of the forties becomes super important, particularly because in women, that's when perimenopause starts to happen, right?” “The point is that I think first of all, start with something that you can do, right?

Happy Mindful Monday Everyone!In this week's episode, our host Allie Brooke sits down with Ali Hall.Ali Hall is a Bay Area-based artist specializing in atmospheric landscape paintings with abstract realism. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, where she studied painting and graphic design. Her creative journey deepened during a personal recovery period, when painting became a source of healing and reflection. What began as a therapeutic outlet evolved into a dynamic practice that explores the intersection of memory, nature, and emotional restoration. Ali works primarily in acrylic, blending fluid brushstrokes, seamless color transitions, and intuitive mark-making to capture both the energy and the calm of California's coastline. Her painterly style is often described as what one might see when one squints and takes in a scene all at once, evoking a softened memory shaped by light, movement, and mood. Each piece carries an immersive quality, inviting viewers to pause and reconnect with their inner landscapes and the natural world.Her work has been featured in Clean Living Magazine, on KRON4TV's Live in the Bay, and at national and international art fairs, including the Superfine Art Fair in San Francisco, the Reno Tahoe International Art Show, and with SAB Gallery in Los Angeles. She also leads creative wellness workshops, helping others access creativity as a tool for reflection and emotional release. Ali seeks to create visually striking and thought-provoking pieces that foster meaningful connections between herself, her audience, and the environment. Looking ahead, she's eager to explore new themes, experiment further, and expand her reach through exhibitions and collaborations.In this episode, we discussThe Language of Coastal Landscapes: Exploring how abstract realism and nature-inspired art become a vessel for emotional storytelling, and why the coast serves as a powerful medium for deep reflection.The Healing Power of the Canvas: A deep dive into the intersection of creativity, healing, and purpose, and how engaging with art—whether as the creator or the observer—facilitates emotional release and restoration.Creativity as a Portal to Purpose: An exploration of the specific artistic experiences and pieces that bridge the gap between aesthetic beauty and internal transformation.Art as a Wellness Practice: How wellness-inspired art experiences provide a safe, somatic container for processing complex emotions and reconnecting with your inner truth.The Core of Authenticity in Art and Life: Why being true to your creative voice is a prerequisite for any healing journey, and how to shed "performance" in favor of raw, authentic expression.The "Everywoman" as Artist: Practical advice for those who don't consider themselves "artistic" to begin using creative expression as a tangible tool for personal well-being and soul-alignment. How to Connect w| AliWebsiteInstagram The Growth METHOD.

Gabby's running journey didn't start with a finish line goal or a desire to be fast. It started after stepping away from Division I college sports, when the structure she'd built her identity around suddenly disappeared and movement no longer had a clear purpose.In this episode, Gabby walks us through what it looked like to relearn running on her own terms. From seeing running as punishment growing up, to signing up for a half marathon on a whim, to slowly building confidence through consistency, community, and letting go of pace expectations. Over the course of a few years, that approach led her to her first marathon at the Every Woman's Marathon in Arizona, where she focused on fueling well, smiling often, and finishing strong without a time goal attached.We talk about pace inclusivity, why slow and steady actually works, how community shaped her training and race day, and what it meant for her to cross the finish line feeling proud without tying her identity to one result. This is a conversation about rewriting what success in running can look like, especially for former athletes learning how to move without a coach or a clock.Follow along with the show:

Drawing from their shared history as Barnard College alumni and their respective expertise in cardiology and periodontics, they discuss the systemic inflammation that links gum disease to heart health. The conversation dives into the unique physiological challenges women face during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause, highlighting how hormonal shifts influence total body health. Walk away with a stronger understanding of how to advocate for your own health and why "total body care" is more than just a buzzword. This podcast is not available for CME/CE/CPD credits.

Hormone Replacement Therapy is back in the spotlight, and many women are asking the same questions: Is it safe? Is it right for me? And why does it still feel so confusing? In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz breaks down what really happened after the Women's Health Initiative study, why the black box warning was added and later removed, and what newer research has clarified about HRT, timing, hormone type, and delivery method.

I am delighted to have my good friend and fan-favorite, Dr. Tabatha Barber, join me again to share her wisdom on the podcast!  Dr. Tabatha is a triple board-certified OB/GYN specializing in menopause and functional medicine. She has a wonderful podcast called The Gutsy Gynecologist Show and is often referred to affectionately as the Gutsy Gynecologist. Dr. Tabatha was with me in two previous podcast episodes, ⁠#206⁠ and ⁠#212⁠, and both are in the top twenty downloaded podcasts in the last 18 months! Many women suffer unnecessarily when going through perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Tabatha and I have an AMA (Ask Me Anything) episode today. We discuss weight gain related to perimenopause and menopause, issues with estrogen replacement therapy, how many different factors can impact libido, how to address a partial hysterectomy and HRT, and bioidenticals versus synthetic hormones. We also get into lab work, skin reactions relative to perimenopause and menopause, emotional eating, leptin resistance, and many other topics.  I'm grateful for all the great questions and have no doubt this episode with Dr. Tabatha will be another fan-favorite! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Why do too much estrogen and too little estrogen both cause weight gain?  How fragrances and plastic contribute to the imbalance between estrogen and progesterone. How changing to organic tampons and pads, or using a Diva cup, can be a game-changer for women. Should women who have had a partial hysterectomy and are on HRT still check progesterone and testosterone levels and fast like a post-menopausal female? Dr. Tabatha shares her thoughts on plain estradiol versus Biest and Triest. Dr. Tabatha offers her recommendations for a healthy 48-year-old female with zero libido. What can a 17-year-old with high testosterone do to get her testosterone level within the normal range? Is there a biological or mindset issue at play if you never feel full and always want to eat, irrespective of how healthy or satisfying the foods you eat are? The benefits of fasting.  What can we do to support our pelvic joints? How do our hormones affect our skin?
