his episode is a long-time coming, one I have been so excited to record and share with you because I wish more people knew this information! Menstrual cycles can have such a huge effect on how we're showing up throughout the month, and if we don't know what to expect…we can feel a lil' crazy or guilty about the changes in energy, mindset, and emotions. So I brought Ash McDonald, Therapeutic Business and Life Mentor, on the show who is someone that went through her own journey with cycle syncing after feeling burnt out during her third pregnancy and having hope that there was a better way to live her life and show up for her loved ones.

Ah! I can hardly believe it… this is the final episode of 2022. I'm so freaking glad you've been such a big part of my year! This space is my favorite and one where I can be so vulnerable and it's because of you! So thank you for being here. In this episode of the Shamelessly Ambitious Podcast, I'm here to chat with you about some really important CEO moves to be making as we close in on the end of the year and embark on a new one. This is a really good time for you to take a 30,000-foot view of what's feeling good, and what's not feeling good. These observations will probably shed light on some new standards or new boundaries that you can put in place. I just recently did this too, so I'm sharing with you what came up for me and a little bit of my BTS process to help you do the same. As I said in the episode, “I know that you built your business for time freedom, abundance, and all the glorious things. In order to be the manifestor, the attractor to those things, live them now. Create them now. Build the boundaries and the business standards now.” TOPICS DISCUSSED The Shamelessly Ambitious Podcast break What CEO boundaries do you need to move into? What holiday boundaries are you calling in? Setting aside time for reflections & projections for the new year and some bonus questions & prompts The importance of carving out time to audit your life & your business Taking time to work ON my business rather than IN my business How to work with me in 2023 Thanks for listening.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about my review of Shockwave Therapy. We borrowed the machine from the wholesaler and used it on patients in the office for over a month. This is why I am so happy that I am able to give you a comprehensive review of what the results were when we used Shockwave therapy for our patients. Further, with how pleased we are when we used Shockwave Therapy, we decided to take that leap of purchasing one for the office. We will be bringing in the latest machine so that it doesn't cause much pain to the patients. In this episode we discuss: [00:36] Introduction to the topic [4:06] Recap on what Shockwave Therapy is [5:59] Some contraindications preventing you from using Shockwave Therapy [7:42] Interesting results while working with Shockwave Therapy [15:41] What Shockwave Therapy helps with [18:51] How long would the treatment be [25:48] Shockwave Therapy and arthritic changes [28:00] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this episode of the Shamelessly Ambitious Podcast, I'm continuing the conversation I started in last week's episode surrounding the coaching industry and how it feels broken. This week, I'm diving into the concept of pricing and how important it is that we are doing it from an intuitive and aligned place, rather than following industry standards. In the coaching industry, I witness people charging an astronomical amount for their mentorship. The big question is if they are doing so because it feels aligned with them or because they saw similar pricing in the industry & thought they “should” do the same. Industry standards should never influence the way you price yourself. Money loves alignment. If you are pricing in a way that doesn't feel good to you, the return won't be as you expected. While I believe mentors should price offers with an amount that feels aligned to THEM, as a client, please invest in offers with pricing that feels aligned to YOU. There isn't always a financial match. Sometimes the industry sets standards for mentors to charge more in order for clients to take deeper advantage of the program. The saying, “the only way you'll have big results is if you make a big investment,” is not always the case. Find mentorship in someone who feels aligned energetically and financially that you know you'll gain value from. Don't underestimate the power of investing in yourself, but that doesn't mean the bigger investment, the better. TOPICS DISCUSSED Intuitive pricing versus industry standard pricing Crooked pricing strategies in the coaching industry What happened when I priced myself in a way that wasn't aligned How my values translate through my pricing The “secret menu” of offer suites The principles to pricing in a way that is intuitive, aligned, and feels good The power of investing in yourself How to never let industry standards influence your pricing Thanks for listening.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about the Cat Cow pose and when the Segmental Cat Cow pose is for you. I wanted to talk about this in this podcast because when we do the Cat Cow pose, we stretch the bendiest parts. We want to make each joint move to its fullest capacity but because the body likes to take the path of least resistance, those areas that might be more restricted and have less movement are not going to get the benefit of the movement. In this episode we discuss: [00:36] Introduction to the topic [2:19] What I am checking when I ask my patients to touch the floor [3:58] The Cat Cow pose and what we check [5:11] The Segmental Cat Cow pose – when is it for you and why is it good for you [7:10] The difference between Cat Cow and Segemental Cat Cow – how to do them [13:31] Why the spine is a great place to start with mobility [14:59] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

Welcome back to the Shamelessly Ambitious Podcast and to day 22 of the Momentum Project! From the conversations I'm having behind the scenes with my clients, I have recognized that there's this massive pattern where women feel so stuck and trapped because they think there is only one way to do things. Today, I'm talking about the fact that there is no right or wrong way to be successful.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about the in-person workshops we've been doing at the office for the past month. One of the workshops is about diastasis recti last weekend. I wanted to talk about this in this podcast because I have gathered from seeing patients in my office that many people have Diastasis Recti and they do not even know it. They may have struggled for years from low back, and hip pain, and they might have been told that they have a weak core. However, not knowing if you have Diastasis Recti and jumping into core work blindly could lead to more issues. In this episode we discuss: [00:35] Introduction to the topic [4:27] The first thing we did during the Diastasis workshop [6:17] How asymmetries can affect you [8:47] What to work on first if you have Diastasis Recti [11:20] What is the next step for dealing with Diastasis Recti [15:51] Knowing where your weakness lies to help with Diastasis Recti [16:54] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

Welcome to day 6 of the Momentum Project! This episode was definitely brought to you by popular demand. I am here to share my best digital nomad life lessons, so far…because I'm definitely still learning! The truth is that it's so easy to look at somebody like myself, this digital nomad traveling all over, and think, ‘What a life!'. But honestly? I still have the same struggles as I did before embarking on this journey. I still have chores and responsibilities. I still have whiny kids who fight incessantly. I just have it in a brand new place. And I'm learning so much, so this episode is all about sharing those lessons with you.

Welcome to day 2 of the Momentum Project! In this episode, I'm talking about the Affirmation-Confirmation Loop. In essence, this is the concept of first recognizing and validating the beliefs that you carry and then reframing them. It is a powerful tool from my days as a trained therapist that I still use in my own personal life & train my clients on.

It's noticing how your life is already good so you can attract even more goodness into your life.” Thanks for listening. Thanks for being here.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about what is shockwave therapy. I am considering putting it in my office for my patients to use because it is a type of therapy that works really well with musculoskeletal issues, specifically chronic-related matters like adhesions and scar tissues. I see these issues all the time in the office because I don't just do adjusting as a chiropractor. I've done different myofascial work in the office with my patients and I do get great results with my hands and my tools. However, there are still some issues where it will be more helpful to get extra help from shockwave therapy.

I've been having a lot of conversations with clients, colleagues, friends, and mentors about this concept of menstrual synergy – cyclical alignment, “cycle syncing” as coined by Alisa Vitti, or whatever the hell you want to call it. Basically, the concept of utilizing your cycle as a blueprint for your life and business. And on today's episode of The Shamelessly Ambitious Podcast, I'll be focusing on the feminine phases of your menstrual cycle – and how you can recognize, master, and honor them. Here's a little sneak peek; “My focus in my feminine phases is restfulness [...] to turn inward, to trust and know that the way that I feel is meant for me, and I get to use it as my guide.” Excited? I know I am! Thanks for listening. Thanks for being here. TOPICS DISCUSSED What's menstrual synergy? What are your feminine phases?

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about the importance of the tongue. I asked on our Just Breathe site, “Where do you typically place your tongue?” People were pretty interested in what does that have to do with anything and what is it connected to. Actually, where our tongue goes, our body tends to follow. That is why the placement of your tongue is important and I'll let you understand more about this in this podcast In this episode we discuss: [00:36] Introduction to the topic [1:12] Where our tongue goes, our body tends to follow [2:13] How the orofacial opening is connected to the pelvic floor [5:46] The tongue in connection with the lymph [7:14] The tongue and the rest and restore mode [8:57] The tongue and nose breathing [12:56] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about how when you are rehabbing an injury, or some type of issue, your progress is never linear.

In the last episode of the Shamelessly Ambitious Podcast, we talked about expectations. More importantly, we talked about lowering expectations in your business, and ultimately giving you permission to make life and business easier, simpler, and more fun. If you have not already listened, I highly suggest you tune into episode 44, it was a good one. But today, I want to dive just a touch deeper. I want to talk about expectations when it comes to creating offers, selling offers, and showing up in your business.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about acute issues and flare-ups that people have.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about pooping, pelvic floor, and back pain. Here, I discussed how your bowel movement can be connected to how your low back feels, your SI joint feels, and how your pelvic floor is functioning. These are the things I feel like we don't talk often about. Women's health talks a lot about urinary incontinence but not so much about the fecal involvement.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about belly breathing versus 360 breathing because I haven't done one in a while. It is one of the things that I do with every single patient who comes to my office. I deal with a lot of people who are stressed, have pelvic floor issues, and learning to breathe better is really going to help anyone.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about the connection between the pelvic floor to your feet and jaw. The pelvic floor is actually broadly connected to many parts of your body and I wanted to share how sometimes, we treat other areas of your body that are not even anywhere near the pelvic floor but have a direct correlation with it. I talked about how Anatomy Trains by Thomas Myers helped me understand how the pelvic floor is connected to our feet and our jaw so I decided to share it with you, too!

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about the connection between the pelvic floor and stress. I did a couple of podcasts separately for these two topics, but now I decided to combine them in one podcast since I see both issues show up a ton with patients. I also talked about the importance of proper breathing to help with the effects of having a shortened pelvic floor because of stress. In this episode we discuss:[00:37] Introduction to the topic [2:14] What happens to the pelvic floor when we are stressed [5:28] Shortening of the pelvic floor doesn't always show up as incontinence [8:02] Long-term effects if you have incontinence or leakage [10:27] Breathing to get the elongated musculature of your pelvic floor [16:22] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about some updates two weeks post-operation. I will be visiting my surgeon tomorrow and see how things have been panning out after the surgery. I already shared with you the healing things, such as grounding, I started doing post-operation. Now, I will be talking about the long-term effects of something like this so that this podcast can help someone who could be under the same circumstances.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about reviews of some of the new products I got for the office. They are from the company called RockTape, and we do use a lot of their products in the office because they have a really good continuing education program aside from the Kinesio tape that they are so famous for. Here, I talked about the products and courses I love from RockTape and the new products I just got, which will dive into vibration versus percussion massage guns. Vibration has a lot of benefits and I hope you learn a lot from this episode. In this episode we discuss: [00:37] Introduction to the topic[3:34] The new products I got from RockTape and my reviews[5:39] Vibration vs Percussion Massage Guns[15:10] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about grounding. I recently posted and asked people if they've done grounding that day. Many of them asked what is grounding so I thought I should talk about it in this podcast. I recently also got a pair of shoes from a company that I've used in the past and they are grounding footwear. I wanted to share how you can start using minimalist footwear, too. For this episode, though, I talked a lot about how grounding can benefit you and anyone of all ages. In this episode we discuss: [00:34] Introduction to the topic [3:25] The Earth's electromagnetic frequency – how it can help with inflammation and healing [6:06] The subtle shift of not having much contact with nature [9:31] Different ways to ground yourself [14:40] How grounding helps with sleeping and more [16:27] Grounding is great for kids, too [18:09] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I recorded my 52nd episode, which means I've been doing a podcast once a week for an entire year! With this, I hope to bring in more people to interview to educate you about treatments you've never heard of, different aspects of women's health, and help you be more proactive with your body and your health overall. For this episode, though, I talked a lot about the importance of movement in general, why I decided to create a new pregnancy program, and doing preventative measures to help us manage our health in the long run.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked my new pregnancy program. I talk a lot about C-section rehabilitation, pelvic floor issues, diastasis recti, and more. However, I wanted to find a program that is most suitable for pregnant patients since I work a lot with them. With the insurance system that we have, my pregnant patients will only come to me when they are already in pain. So, I wanted to have a program for them so they can work on certain exercises, mindset, and movements before they even have pain. The program will also prevent pain or issues, help moms deliver and recover easily, and avoid medical interventions. In this episode we discuss: Introduction to the topic My birth story inspiring this new pregnancy program Pregnancy pitfalls you don't want to deal with Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked more about medicine not being black and white. I already talked about this topic weeks ago when I told you guys about when I went for a check-up because I've been feeling fatigued. The PCP who saw me missed my issues with my thyroid, and I had to ask my Gynecologist during our yearly check-up to check if there is an issue in the area. She did find that after ordering me to get an ultrasound and it was confirmed when I underwent a biopsy and molecular testing. I wanted to talk more about this to dive into the other possible things you could consider if you have the same issues as mine. In this episode we discuss: [00:37] Introduction to the topic [1:44] One shade of grey in medicine based on my experience [5:05] Pushing a bit more when you know something is wrong [8:07] The problem with insurance companies [10:00] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about what constitutes a pelvic floor issue. I think some people are misinformed about pelvic floor dysfunction and because they are misinformed, they are in denial about having an issue relating to this area.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about healing, fertility, and pelvic health in relation to blood flow. The blood flow system and the lymph system work closely together. Since I already talked about the lymph system in an earlier podcast, I wanted to share about the blood flow system, too. Also, with women's health, blood flow always kept popping up in my interviews with my patients, so I decided to share more about it here. In this episode, we discuss: [00:36] Introduction to the topic [2:10] Blood flow and fertility [4:07] The latest blood flow course by Dr. Perry Nicklesten [7:15] Blood flow and pelvic health [9:33] Blood flow and abdominal issues – whether digestive or reproductive [10:49] Blood flow and extremity issues [11:58] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about medicine being gray and not black and white. I wanted to discuss what kinds of questions you need to be asking when you go to your doctor for an evaluation and when should you get a second opinion. I decided to do this because I recently went to a PCP appointment, which I haven't gone to in a long time. When I got my results back, they were all normal, but I think it wasn't a comprehensive process to take a look at a broader scope as to what has been causing my fatigue. Days after, I had my Gynecology yearly visit and my gynecologist found something that the PCP practitioner didn't catch. Doctors are humans and they can miss things just as I missed some in my practice. I wanted to talk about this so that people will realize that medicine is grayer than we would like to believe. In this episode we discuss: [00:36] Introduction to the topic [7:30] Being persistent, asking for second opinion, and further testing when it comes to your health [13:31] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about how prevention is so much easier than fixing a problem when it comes to pregnancy. It's not usually how things happen in the office because people come to the clinic when they are already having an issue after talking to their OB-GYN. Another factor that creates this situation is the insurance system in our country. You cannot go and see a practitioner if you have no problems yet. That is why I wanted to talk about some tips to help pregnant women out there prepare their bodies so they can have an easy pregnancy. In this episode we discuss: [00:37] Introduction to the topic [2:22] Being active during pregnancy [4:17] Keeping your nervous system relaxed [5:29] Tapping into your core [8:13] Lying on your back [10:38] Rolling to your side before sitting up [11:22] Breathing [12:20] Conclusion If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about some easy tips and tricks on how to help stimulate our lymph system at home. This stems from the fact that I just taught the first in-person yoga class since the beginning of the pandemic. One of the people in that class mentioned she was training for a race and she's been feeling like her legs are heavy and congested. So, she wanted to know if I had suggestions regarding her concern as to better lymphatic movement. That is why I want to share these tips and tricks with you.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about some tips and tricks for consistency. I give out exercises to every single patient that I have and sometimes, consistency becomes an issue. The biggest stumbling block that I believe why my patients fail to do what I ask them to do is because they think of it as exercises. In their mind, you have to allocate a special time of day, use special shoes and a special outfit, have a certain space, and the like. However, that should not be the case that's why I made this podcast. I want you to know more about how you can make these little changes and shifting your mindset regarding these exercises.

In this episode I also talked about how different it looks in a variety of different ways.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about having inflexible or weak feet possibly being the cause of your low back, knee, and pelvic floor pain. I posted on TikTok recently talking about your feet being strong and flexible. If you don't have strong feet, you run the risk of losing the shock absorber for your body.

In this week's episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about Nono's hip replacement. Nono is my dad. I had a hip injury last year and I did a couple of episodes regarding my hip journey. I think it would be good to also talk about my father's hip injury so I decided to make this podcast. He is really flexible for a guy and for a guy of his age. I am not sure if his injury was the same as the degenerative process that my hip has undergone as I was also hypermobile. He did not, however, do any sport that would require him to overstretch. As to the procedure, my father had a posterior hip replacement over a week ago. I wanted to talk about this to help you understand what contributes to the stabilization of the hips, how the hip moves, and what we plan to do with him to help his recovery to be the best that it can be.

This podcast interview focuses on product innovation that has the power to help ambitious people become more focused and productive. My guest is Jonas Vossler, Founder, and CEO of Flow Lab.Jonas is fascinated by everything that happens at the intersection of new technologies, business, and society. He's convinced that in today's world, innovation is the primary driver for economic growth and for change in our society. It is due to the progress induced by a variety of innovations and inventions, especially in health and technology, that the population of Western industrialized countries enjoys a high standard of living. Still, we all experience a variety of mental distractions and emotional distress in our workdays that prevent us from finding the motivation, focus, and energy to perform at our best and use our time productively.And that's exactly the problem Jonas wants to solve - and hence he founded Flow Lab, a company that's on a mission to help people find more flow in their lives. And that inspired me - and hence I invited Jonas to my podcast. We explore why with all the technology around it's still so hard to be productive and deliver peak performance in our work. We also discuss the journey Jonas has been on to solve this massive problem. He shares examples about the strategic decisions he had to take, the challenges he's faced in gaining traction in the market, funding his business, and what was required to be ready for that in the first place. Lastly, we discuss his big lessons learned to create a software business that's resilient and what it takes to build something that people just keep talking about.Here are some of his quotes:The tools we provide they're going to help people be their own mental coach, so to speak, to develop self-leadership capabilities that take me through the day in a way that I feel for myself as positive and productive. And what that can mean is: the ability to focus when I need to ability not to focus when I don't want to. The ability to recover. The ability to be emotionally balanced. The ability to motivate myself. There are so many micro-decisions that can be decisive throughout a given day, for me to make this a productive day.During this interview, you will learn four things:What being crystal clear about segmentation actually means and why focusing just on demographics is not enoughWhy having a compelling vision and realistic optimism are key ingredients to build resilience in your SaaS businessThat, in order to become a remarkable software business you have to invest in soft skills in communication - especially when emotion get involved.That the pressure to get the funding is nothing compared to the pressure that's is building once you get the fundingFor more information about the guest from this week:Jonas VosslerWebsite Flow LabSubscribe to Value Inspiration on Friday'sA weekly musing on how to shape the B2B SaaS business your customers just keep talking about.Learn from the most inspiring ideas I've encountered or explored this week that could help you find new ways to stand out, eliminate the need to compete on price, and make tangible progress in creating a SaaS business your customers would miss if it were gone.
