I know what you're thinking... "If I hear someone say 'manage your stress' one more time... I'm gonna lose it!."   I know.   I've felt the same way. But the truth is that if we don't learn how to manage our stressors better, we will continue to suffer with messed up hormones.    There is a difference between physiologic stress and emotional stress- in this episode, I'll help you to understand the difference and what you can do to feel better.

Tatiana Fogt from the Bedside Podcast is our guest today!  We'll be talking all about healing hormones, unraveling shame and upgrading sexual pleasure. Tatiana shares about her own hormone journey, which started with a bad experience on Yas. She saw first-hand in her early 20's that not all prescription synthetic hormones will work with every body. Tatiana then experienced hormonal acne after coming off of Yas, and developed a desire to learn how to manage hormones in natural non-prescription ways. After this extensive, self-led learning journey, she decided that the topic of sexual health needed a rebrand - one that she could offer because of her background in marketing and design. Now, she hosts an incredible platform where people can find the information they've been looking for around sexual health and wellness. Her podcast has recently discussed everything from relationship attachment styles to reducing cortisol levels to defining sensuality, and she's helping her audience grow their knowledge and confidence around relationships and sex. On this episode we discuss common misconceptions around libido, desire, and the diverse, natural ebb and flow of what turns each individual human on or off. Tatiana also shares some good insight about how we can communicate with our partners without hurting feelings, and about cultivating different types intimacy within our relationships. We discuss how to open up better communication with a partner. Then, we share some tips on how to re-write old shame scripts. We talk about how we learned to be in charge of our own destinies, become who we want to be, and feel more secure in our own bodies. We describe what good communication might look like for us in our respective relationships, and we express our gratitude that we've been able to to step in to our true, loving, wild selves and live fuller lives. We talk about how pleasure can be defined more broadly to include play, rest, enjoyment and fulfillment. Then, we end the episode on the topic of shifting generational habits and hangups, and the importance of creating space in our lives for what we truly want and desire. I love what Tatiana has to share about deciding she was done waiting on anything or anyone, and just making moves in her own life, career and calling.

How strong is your support network of close friends that you can be open and real with? Personally, this is an area I've struggled with a lot as a career driven woman. Community is also something that plays a huge role in our over all health and hormone balance. This episode unpacks why community is so important to our hormones and gives you some things to think about to strengthen your own community. I also share some new things I'm working on and am really excited about because they focus on community at the core of our healing journey.Links mentioned in this episode:The Emergent Women Circle-www.emergentwomencircle.com Subscribe to Dr. Alex: https://emergent-women.ck.page/0b2e48c7cb Episode Transcript:[00:00] So I don't know about you, but I have struggled through my adult life to maintain close friendships and relationships and community among other women.[00:11] And I've been thinking about this a.[00:13] Lot lately because this is also a significant part of having balance and having our hormones work. And we're going to unpack what that means today. But I also think that for those of us who identify as high achievers, we're driven and we're always after the next thing. That's a lot of what being a high achiever is about. It can be hard to prioritize friendship because we're already stretched so thin in our careers and in our personal and family lives. And so it's something that gets missed.[00:52] Welcome to The Selfless Syndrome Show, where we help women executives and entrepreneurs rise through Adversity, connect to their intuition, transform their hormones, and get their energy back. This is the show where we go beyond asking how do I treat my symptoms? And instead examine how do I truly heal, transform my hormones, and change my life? We are here to bring you outside the box ideas, interviews, and action steps focused in the areas of health, relationships, and our career, all three of which have a huge impact on our hormones. My name is Dr. Alex Swenson Ridley. I'm your host, mentor, speaker, author, entrepreneur, and thought leader on hormones and work life balance for high achieving women. I'm also a wife's, mom, and stepmom to four boys and a furball. And I'm a woman whose own life experience and journey from Adversity and the resulting hormonal chaos to finding hormonal harmony has led to me helping other women break with convention and find the tools they need to not just survive, but thrive. Ready to dive in? Let's go.[01:53] What I started to see and really have recognized, especially when I was writing my book on Selfless Syndrome that came out in January, is that we're missing this really important component that we were designed to be in relationship with others and in community. And I'm not talking about the pandemic or pre or being introverted or extroverted or that has nothing to do with any of this. There is something that we gain from being in relationship with others, particularly peers and those who we can relate to in a peer way. Women who get us and understand us, that actually helps us to de escalate from stress. We as women, go through something called tend and befriend. And the way I think about this is I'm going to tell you to share a little story here that I actually shared in my book. But I grew up in Vermont, which is actually where I'm recording this because I'm here helping my mom recover from a pelvic. Broken pelvis. But when I was a kid, we would go out and go hiking all the time. And there was a stay where we were driving to what was my favorite.[02:57] Mountain because we...

Today's guest on Healing Hormones is Avanti Kumar-Singh, MD, a former ER doctor turned ayurvedic healer. Finding the ancient Indian medical practice after – you guessed it – experiencing her own health and wellness issues that traditional medicine could not address in a way that relieved her symptoms, she knew there had to be a better way. Ayurveda relies on a natural approach to physical and mental health; getting closer to nature is the goal. In this conversation, she gives us very practical tools of how we can start to implement its principles into our lives, simply, so that we can start to heal the body. We also talk about finding balance between ancient and modern practices, another common theme we hear on this podcast. In this respect, Dr. Singh's is another voice that sings in those gray areas – because there really is no black and white when it comes to staying healthy.

Today's guest is Tamar Samuels, a registered Dietitian Nutritionist, National Board Certified Health Coach, and the co-founder of https://culinahealth.com/ (Culina Health). In this episode, we talk a lot about how, when you're trying to heal the root cause of what's going on, whether it's gut issues, hormone health, thyroid disorders – really, whatever it is – it can cause us to have a lot of disordered eating tendencies and black-and-white thinking that actually ends up doing a lot more harm than good. We talk about the benefits of eating the rainbow and dig into some practical things you can do to get out of a disordered eating mindset and choose foods that are going to be healing of inflammation, balancing for hormones, and helpful for the thyroid.

Today on the show, I am talking to Courtney Babilya, who is a fitness nurse and mom of two on a mission to help women find their way out of diet culture, and back into their power, through sustainable fitness and cyclical living. We talk about her difficult rock bottom, complicated further by a misdiagnosis of bipolar syndrome and some challenging reactions to the medications she was prescribed. Constantly fighting her own body with overtraining and an eating disorder, something had to change. Her success story is as inspiring as it is educational.  Of course we touch on her experience with different birth control measures, from a “lost” arm implant to an immediate decision to ditch her NuvaRing. Today's most important and most actionable advice, though, comes in the form of Courtney's 2022-proof fitness routines, and how we can and should be considering our cycle when planning out our workouts. There's no shame in this game; being active, healthy, and fit does not mean being in the gym everyday. NEW! Starting October 10th – Courtney and I are launching a special bundle, combining LUNA with the Keeping Balance Method for a single low price.

Does this sound like you? You're considering ditching birth control and finally starting Fertility Awareness Method … but you're feeling totally stuck. On one hand, you're so nervous to stop the pill because you've been on it more years than you can count, and on the other hand, you're terrified of getting pregnant. It feels so paralyzing! I hear these fears a lot and you're absolutely not alone. The best way to ease the fear of transitioning to FAM (aka natural birth control) is to become more educated and confident in the method before taking the leap! In this episode, I have compiled some of the most common Fertility Awareness Method questions I get about learning FAM after years on birth control. I hope it helps answer a few of your burning questions, too, and gives you the boost of confidence you need to start FAM! We Chat About: Can I learn FAM while I'm still on hormonal birth control? Can I learn Fertility Awareness Method while still having a copper IUD? How long does it take to learn the Fertility Awareness Method successfully? Do I need a course or can I learn FAM on my own? I want to work with a certified instructor! When is the best time to  join LUNA? Can I extend my LUNA Membership if I still need your support beyond 6-months?

Many women who are looking towards natural birth control (aka http://www.nourishedwithnina.com/famtraining (Fertility Awareness Method)) are curious about the rise in popularity of wearable thermometers. With a variety of temperature tracking devices out there, it poses the question: how do these new technologies compare in both ease and accuracy? These are important questions to ask when choosing a thermometer for natural birth control accuracy! Recently, there have been two big advancements in wearable thermometers for natural birth control: (1) the collaboration between https://www.naturalcycles.com/oura (OURA Ring and Natural Cycles), and (2) the https://www.apple.com/apple-watch-series-8/?afid=p238%7Cs4SPkiwtu-dc_mtid_20925qtb42335_pcrid_620373763636_pgrid_142097054098_&cid=wwa-us-kwgo-watch-slid---Brand-AppleWatchSeries8-announce- (Apple Watch series 8) new integrated fertility features.

We've all heard it online and all over social media – that you can only get pregnant during a five or six day window each month, aligning with the presence of your more fertile cervical mucus. But, what if your CM is here to party most of the month? Especially for those of us practicing Fertility Awareness Method (FAM), the risks in not knowing for sure are huge.  In this solo episode, I break down this issue, why such black-and-white advice actually doesn't apply to the incredible range of individuality in the human body, and why the answer – as it always is – is understanding yourself on a deeper level.  We Chat About: Ideal environment for sperm Are you fertile all month if cervical mucus is present?

My guest today, Kitty Blomfeld, is just like so many of us, having gone through a cycle of dieting, binging, and doing things she thought were good for her body (like heavily restrictive practices), but were actively hurting it. Her health and wellness travels brought her to weight training, and then everything changed. Through regimented eating and training routines, Kitty got truly healthy. Now, she shares her learnings through NuStrength, her online program coaching women on how to get healthy, and feel healthy, while eating more and training less. It's all about knowledge, knowing how your body will react to certain foods and eating accordingly. Let's get into it!

My guest today, Lahana Vigliano, is the CEO of Nuvitru Wellness and a board-certified and holistic clinical nutritionist in Austin, TX. She's here to answer all of our questions about stress – where does it come from, how can we reduce it, and what is it really doing in our bodies? She also asks some of her own – teaching us to question our food choices, what's actually in your control, and what isn't? It's time to get honest with ourselves, and shame is not invited to the party. Our bodies are so evolutionarily driven that when stress crops up, we can't distinguish if we're being chased by a lion, or are just stuck in traffic. It's only natural that women's bodies would try to shut down ovulation in times of danger as those would, to our body, seem like a pretty bad time to bring a child into the world – right?! Lahana is wise beyond her years, sharing so many actionable tips in this one that you'll want to grab a notepad. The key though, as she explains, is not letting your brand new anti-stress routine stress you out. Start with what feels natural – try spending time in nature, journaling, or breathwork – and build from there. We Chat About: Lahana's background in medicine  Can you kill it?

Cassy Joy Garcia is a New York Times bestselling author and the creative force behind popular wellness editorial site, Fed + Fit. Her mission is to make cooking more manageable, especially for moms – which is why I am personally so excited to share this one with you. Once she had her first child, Cassy was looking for ways to still eat healthy but take out some of the work from cooking. This led her to develop the “cook once” method for meal prep, a genius time saving concept that she's written about at length. It's not all quick and easy either, she's also committed to making intimidating dishes seem more attainable for the average person cooking at home. Her message is an empowering one, and I can attest to her recipes being both easy to prepare and delicious to eat. Keep an ear out for her cute young kids in the background of this one!

My amazing guest today, Noelle Tarr, is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP), an NSCA-Certified Personal Trainer, author, and all-around badass. She's worked in the industry for more than seventeen years and is open to admitting she's made every mistake in the book – which is why she's so dedicated to helping others on their body and overall wellness journeys.  We talk about body image, its role in how we grow up thinking of ourselves, and what dieting culture does and (mostly) does not accomplish. We also learn about the importance of recognizing your season of life and embracing it for a more balanced sense of self – no more living in the black and white areas of life! Most importantly, Noelle teaches us that we must not judge ourselves harshly. Everything we experience is an opportunity to learn, grow, and live in joy. I hope you enjoy this inspiring convo!

By now, you've heard of the gut biome and how critical those little bacteria are in supporting your overall wellbeing. Well, today, Dr. Mark Burhenne joins me to dive into even further detail with one specific, important, and very famous, part of our digestive system – our mouth! It's about so much more than bad breath and coffee stains, although we cover the importance of the small stuff too. The truth is that oral health is directly involved in six-to-seven out of ten major chronic diseases.

Dr. Mike Belkowski is my guest today. He's a physical therapist by trade and is passionate about providing his patients with the most effective treatment techniques – most notably, he's a big proponent of red light therapy, launching BioLight in 2019. We get into the teeny tiny detail in this one – down to the cellular level! Dr. Belkowski teaches us that our mitochondria react differently to different hues of light and that they're in every single cell, producing 95% of the energy in our bodies.  Knowing that, it's easy to see why dysfunctional mitochondria are the root of many diseases. They're the engine of all our amazing bodily functions – our heath! All BioLight purchases include Dr. Belkowski's eBook with red light therapy research, background on BioLight, and – most importantly – protocols on how to use red light at home, including how long and how often to use it and where on your body, depending on what you're trying to treat. We Chat About: How Mike discovered red light therapy The details of red light therapy and how it works Why blue light can actually be good for you (just not from technology) The difference between red light therapy and infrared sauna lights How to use red light at home and what a therapy session looks like Where to get started if you're new to red light therapy Resources: https://www.biolight.shop/ (BioLight) Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/biolight/ (BioLight) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/biolight.shop (@bioight.shop) Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-red-light-report/id1558211577 (The Red Light Report) Connect With Me: Join my FREE FAM Training: http://nourishedwithnina.com/famtraining (Prevent Pregnancy Naturally + Ditch the Pill Without Fear) http://www.calendly.com/nourishedwithnina/discovery (Free Fertility Call) https://nourished-with-nina.ck.page/b5b46324e9 (Sync Your Life & Menstrual Cycle) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nourishedwithnina/ (@nourishedwithnina) Healing Hormones is produced and published by http://crate.media/ (Crate Media).

Brooke Schattner was on the pill since she was 16 – nearly a decade – and today she's sharing her journey to leaving the pill behind and transitioning her way to FAM. Like so many women, Brooke got on the pill because it was just “the thing to do” in your teens. There wasn't a real reason behind it at first, and she never had a deep discussion with her parents or doctors on what the pill meant, and if it was the right choice for her body. After years of symptoms and side effects, she's decided that it's not for her. I hope Brooke's story resonates with you no matter where you are on your own hormone journey. We Chat About: The doctor's solution to side effects was always to just “try a different pill” Why we aren't taught how the pill works, even if it is the right decision Getting on or off the pill is not just about contraception, but is also a health decision Shame and worry around getting off the pill for alternative methods Resources: If you're looking to get off of the pill or need help deciding what birth control method works for you, check out my FREE FAM Training: http://nourishedwithnina.com/famtraining (Prevent Pregnancy Naturally + Ditch the Pill Without Fear) Connect With Me: https://nourished-with-nina.ck.page/b5b46324e9 (Sync Your Life & Menstrual Cycle) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nourishedwithnina/ (@nourishedwithnina) Healing Hormones is produced and published by http://crate.media/ (Crate Media).

One of the problems with synthetic hormones is how easily they can knock our body off course and tip our hormonal balance in the wrong direction. But what if you could take something natural that supports your body's ability to create hormones with a low risk of unwanted side effects or complications?

As I approach a year postpartum and adjust to life after endometriosis surgery, I've been noticing shifts happening in my diet and my life. Pregnancy affects everyone in different ways, but one thing is always the case: Your hormone levels soar. For some that feels amazing, but for others, it can create a lot of issues. And any sudden change to our hormones is going to put stress on the liver. On top of that there's all the medication you may be taking that, while it can be necessary at the time, takes a toll on our health in other ways.
