Welcome to the Hormone Prescription Podcast. Speaker 1 (01:12): Hi everybody. Welcome back to another episode of the Hormone Prescription with Dr. Kyrin. Thank you so much for joining me today. Really excited to share my guest with you today, Kate Vazquez. I'll tell you a little bit about her. I met Kate at a mastermind Halloween party with JJ Virgin a year or two ago, and I was really drawn to her and this is the first time I've really had a chance to talk, speak at depth with her. And we discovered that we have so much in common about how we view women's health and energetics and nervous system function and all the things as I like to say. So we really are kindred souls and super excited to have you here to hear this discussion because it contains some vital information for your health that you're not going to hear everywhere else. Starting with, we're gonna talk about something called human design, which isn't something I've talked about on the podcast, but really has been pivotal in me creating the health that I'm enjoying and really could help you as well. Speaker 1 (02:23): So I'm introducing it today and then actually next week my human design analyst is gonna come on the podcast and really talk nuts and bolts about what human design is and why and how it impacts your health and how you can use it to help improve your health too. But today we are talking with Kate and we're gonna give you actually a really close, upfront look at how human design has helped both of us transform our health. She has some beautiful quotes to share with you. This one from Maryanne Williamson that I stated in the teaser is beautiful. We talked about that. We talk about Shakespeare and his view on what makes things good or bad. We have a great quote from Peter that people in circumstances are revealing where you're not free. And so I'm gonna invite you to listen to this episode and really take it in and bathe in the energy of it and start to notice where you are not free. Speaker 1 (03:27): Where are you not allowing yourself to create the health that you deserve that's possible for you? What could be some of the blocks in your way? Maybe listening to some of Kate's story will help you to start to identify that and listening to the information. So I'll tell you a little bit about Kate and then we'll get started. Kate is a physician, assistant functional medicine practitioner and mindset coach. She's the founder of Radiant By Design. She is the author of Estrogen, is a and Creator of Enough, already Enough. She blends functional medicine, human design, and nervous system regulation for a unique approach that cultivates a deeper healing of the mind, body, and spirit. She helps women overcome anxiety, stress, and imbalances in their body to embrace the radiance of who they truly are. So we are gonna dive into it with Kate now. Welcome Kate to the Hormone Prescription. Speaker 1 (04:26): Hi Dr. Kyrin. Thank you so much. I'm just so honored and blessed to be here and I'm just really excited for our conversation today. I am too, because you love the same things. I love you, love hormones, you love working with women, you love nervous system regulation and you love human design. These are all things I'm passionate about too and I'm wondering if you can share with everyone your journey towards discovering all these very unique tools, right? Functional medicine, root cause resolution is not the standard and it's not common. How did you discover that? How did you discover that nervous system regulation was important? How did you discover human design and really how it's impacted your health personally and the women that you work with? So if you could share that, that would be awesome. Absolutely. My story really began back in, in 2016. Speaker 1 (05:16): I was working as a physician assistant at the time in an, in an urgent care and just newly, newly married with my husband. And at the time I, I looked like I was happy on the outside, but deep down inside I was really struggling. I was just stressed out, anxious. I had about six to eight migraines a month, a lot of digestive issues, constipation, blo, I was even taking birth control just to keep my skin clear. And as a newly married couple, it was very challenging that first year cause we were still learning a lot about each other's. Like you go from like thinking about yourself to now you have to think about the other person. Plus I realized I was, I was just stuffing all my emotions down. Like I was stressed out at work and I'd come home and then I would sometimes vent it to my husband, but then we'd end up in, in arguments and get triggered and yeah, it was, it was a lot that was happening at that time and it just got to a point where things were really escalating to the point where I remember the stay very clearly in 2016 where I was sitting, my husband and I were sitting on his old ugly leather bran couch, which is all we had at the time. Speaker 1 (06:22): And I remember him looking at me and just with so much pain and just sadness in his eyes and saying, I don't know how much longer I keep doing this. And when he said that, it just tore me apart. Like I was so heartbroken to hear him say that. Cause I'm like, no, this can't be happening. This is my soulmate and , you know, what did I do wrong? What's, what's going on? What, why can't I make him happy? Why am I not good enough? You know, all these thoughts were flooding in my head, but deep down inside I knew like divorce was not an option and I was willing to do whatever it took. And I knew that something needed to change, something needed to change with my health, something needed to change with my mental and emotional state and something needed to change to, so that way we could, we could save our marriage, you know, and looking back, I I realized like at that time I needed to take responsibility and that what needed to change was myself. Speaker 1 (07:16): And so my husband at the time, he sent me off to, to Tony Robbins, at least the power within. And that's when I really learned a lot about mindset and personal development and learned about the limiting belief that I had, which was, I'm not enough. That was basically like running my life and was creating a lot of stress and anxiety at the time. And within a couple years I discovered functional medicine. So I dove into that. And at the same time I was starting my certification at, with the I Institute for Functional Medicine. I also started my own business, my own practice, radiant Health at the time. Because I realized there was definitely a better way, a different way to not only heal myself, but to help other people. I set out to heal my own issues improved, you know, my gut issues healed. Speaker 1 (08:05): My, my gut, I balance out my hormones coming off birth control or cortisol. But at the time I still, even though I physically started to feel better, I still mentally, emotionally wasn't feeling my best. I still was experiencing anxiety and also having migraines at the time. And so, you know, as a entrepreneur and business owner, I had jumped into a couple masterminds over the last couple years and, you know, being in a part of those groups, you get a lot of like strategies thrown at you and it's like you're, you're told to just like, go, go, go and do, do, do. And so I was doing a lot of these things to like really build and grow the business so I can impact more people and serve more people. But at the time I just, I was so burnt out, I was exhausted and I wasn't even enjoying what I was doing anymore. Speaker 1 (08:52): I felt like I was back at the urgent care where I'm like, I became a PA and now I'm like not happy. And now I'm like, I started my own business and now I'm not having, like, what is going on? You know? So I started learning about nervous system regulation and just diving into the subconscious mind. And I was doing yoga and meditation at the time and doing all the right things, you know, eating healthy exercise, taking supplements, but it just, it wasn't enough. And so diving into nervous system regulation into the subconscious mind to really uncover like my fears and beliefs and conditioning really helped me to do that. But I think the most pivotal change, the shift that I had was learning about human design. And I don't remember how I came across it. I think it was like something on Instagram that was like talking about human design. Speaker 1 (09:37): And I took the little, the quiz or filled out my information and I discovered I was a projector. And when I discovered I was a projector, I was like, oh, what does this, what does this mean? And I realized like as a projector, they're like, I'm here to guide. I'm not here to be constantly doing, to, to be generating or to be initiating things. And that really explained a lot for me, explained a lot as I looked back over my life. Like I had been conditioned to be a certain way and that way just didn't feel genuine, didn't feel authentic to who I was. So it's like when I discovered human design discovered I was projecting this is how I was supposed to live my life, it finally gave me permission to be who I am. To be me. Yeah. so liberating to be you. Speaker 1 (10:24): And if you're listening and you've never heard of human design, you're probably going, what, what is this? What do you mean permission to be me? So can you talk a little bit about what human design is and why someone might want to know their design and how it might help them? What, what is it basically like your energetic blueprint, like how you're designed to, to show up in this world and certain types are able to generate their own energy. We ha there's like generators and manifestors generating, manifesting generators, but then there's the non-energy types which are reflectors and projectors. And we're basically here to just guide and, and reflectors reflect back, you know, how others are. We're just here to be more of like the support system. Whereas the manifestors and generators are the ones taking action and and and generating things. And so, you know, for me, understanding my human design just help me understand how to support my health better because you know, for a projector we need a lot of rest. Speaker 1 (11:28): And so I started changing, changing how I saw clients. Like instead of working from nine to five, now I work from 10 to four. And in between my clients I make sure I schedule time in to take, to take breaks to rest, especially when I start to feel my energy dip. Because if my energy dips then I can't show up as my best self and help guide my clients. So I've been more in tune with that. But also just winding down before bedtime has been a big, big game changer for me because I used to wake up and just go, go go from the time I woke up to the time I went to bed and I realized that was impacting my sleep. And when my sleeps impacted, that impacts my energy and that impacts my health. So, so really understanding your design can help you understand, okay, how do I show up? Speaker 1 (12:15): But also it can improve your relationship with others. Cuz understanding my design and my husband's design, he's a manifestor. He's go, go, go, I'm not . So I realize too, like I want to guide him but I can't guide him unless he asks me for my advice. And that's also been another game changer. Cause you know, as projectors, like we're very knowledgeable, we want to help so many people and I used to give advice and I was met with resistance and it wasn't well received. And in human design when that happens, you ex as a projector experience a lot of bitterness. And I was definitely a lot of bitterness because I didn't know, I didn't have boundaries around like, okay, no, I have to wait for someone to ask for my advice cuz when I received the invitation it's well received, you know, and people are more likely to be open. Speaker 1 (13:04): And so it's really changed a lot for me as my like who living life as who I am, but also how to better serve my clients and hold that capacity, you know? But also improving my relationship with my husband as well and, and my health. So right. And so, and and in human design there there are only four energy centers. And so something that I want everyone listening to just think about and I am doing an interview later today with my human design analyst, Nancy. So we're gonna really get into the nuts and bolts of what is human design and how it impacts your health and how you might wanna know your design. And it that might help inform you about choices you might want to make that are different from the ones you're making regarding your health. So if, if you're a non-energy type or even if you are an energy type, right? Speaker 1 (13:58): Generators aren't either, they're also not meant to go out and make stuff happen. They're meant to respond to what comes to them. And if you don't realize that you could expend a lot of energy trying to make things happen. And so if you're operating in a manner that's contrary to your design, basically you're going to have issues. And a lot of times those issues will show up as health problems. So how do you integrate, well first I'm just curious, so what type of projector are you ? Because I'm a projector too and discovering that I'm a five one projector emotional projector emotionally defined really helped me understand a lot of things that I've known about myself my whole life. But I really couldn't grasp or know how to incorporate, like I'm extremely emotional. Emotional. Yep. All right. And so I didn't understand that and everybody would look at me and go, gosh, you're so emotional. Speaker 1 (14:54): Yeah, it's my design so now I understand it, I can accept it and I can just go, yeah, it's just who I am. So ta talk a little bit about your design. Yeah, absolutely. So I'm five one projector as well, but my authority is splenic, so I'm very, very intuitive and , I used to not listen to my intuition, but when I didn't listen to it I would always say I should have listened to my intuition . So I've definitely been more in tune in in listening to that. And yeah, that's what I love about human design. There's something called the authority. So once you understand what your energy type is, whether you're a projector, manifestor, manifesting generator, reflector, you know, et cetera, there's the authority and the authority is just like this, this feeling, this sensation. Or like in your case you have this emotional wave, so you don't want to make a decision when, like for you, when you're in an emotional wave. Speaker 1 (15:47): And yeah, growing up, yeah, the emotional types were told or yeah, a lot of people are just wondering like, why are these people so emotional? Like there's something wrong with them when in fact there's nothing wrong with you at all. That's just, that's normal. It's normal. And I think it's beautiful to be able to experience the, the variety of emotions. And that's another thing like I learned like we, we look at emotions as certain things are, emotions are are bad, but it's like no emotions are just, you know, our body processing information and a lot of times we don't allow those emotions to pass. And if we stuff them down, they get suppressed, repressed, that's when they start to effects the body and put us into yes sympathetic state. So for you recognizing your emotional wave and knowing like, okay, I'm experiencing this wave right now not to make a decision because if I make a decision, it's probably not gonna be the best decision for me. Speaker 1 (16:40): So once you come out of that wave, now you have more clarity as what is best for you, what person's best for you, what is your next step, what is your next move? What is the best, you know, decision? For me, it's just really tuning in cuz my, my intuition comes very quick. It's a very quick sp spontaneous, like inner knowing and it can be easily missed if I'm not in tune with that. Which looking back yeah, I wasn't always in tune with it. Didn't always listen to it and then the like wishing I had. And so it's just this, this inner knowing, yeah, it's really hard to describe but it's just this, this sensation that I feel when I know something's right and when I know when something's not right. So having that level of intuition can really affect like your, your health but also as, as projectors, what I find fascinating is that because oh, as since I have this splenic authority, I'm very, very in tune with a lot of different smells, . Speaker 1 (17:39): So I'm very, very sensitive to smells. And like the other day my husband went and got his hair cut and he told the guy don't spray his hair and the guy forgotten he sprayed these toxic chemicals all over his hair. And then I hop into the car cuz we were gonna go off and run errands together and I couldn't, I couldn't handle the smell . And that's very, very typical of of, of someone with a splenic authority. They're just very sensitive to smells in their environment. And I call it like my toxic, my toxin radar , yes. Because yeah, I'm just like, anything that's, yeah, just like cigarette smoke and yeah, just synthetic fragrances, anything that's not natural, I'm very, very sensitive to, in fact, it's given me migraines too in the past. So, so for me, like really like when I smell something, it's like my instinct is to run away because my body's protecting me, you know? Speaker 1 (18:29): So I think it's, it's a beautiful thing to have and understand like what your authority is cuz it's, it's, it's meant to, to protect you, you know, and help you when it comes to making the best decision for you, like in, in every area of your life. Yes. You know, and as you mentioned it, I have splenic definition also and I have that, that toxin radar smell also. So I have the spleen, but I am emotionally emotional authority. And so how do you incorporate that into the work you do with people? How does it help inform how you advise people knowing their human design type? Yeah, that is such a great question. I, I love learning about each person because when someone's coming to me and they're experiencing a lot of stress, just helping them to see like, are they living in alignment with who they are? Speaker 1 (19:22): Because if they're not, that's gonna generate a lot of stress. That's gonna be the reason why they're experiencing a lot of anxiety or depression. Why they have a lot of imbalances in their, with their hormones, with their adrenals, with their gut, with their thyroid. And so having that understanding, you know, we can start pulling, pulling apart like who's their not self. Cuz in human design there's that not self theme, right? And that's the theme that's been, or the self that's been conditioned from society. So really pulling out these pieces and that's where this nervous system regulation and subconscious work comes into play too, is just understanding like what are the thoughts they have and what are their beliefs and what are the patterns and conditioning that's not who they are. So now when they build that level awareness, now we can move them into embodying who they really are. Speaker 1 (20:09): But also, yeah, taking the concepts the core concepts and like understanding their strategy and understanding their authority and how they're gonna show up in their life. Because that's what made the biggest difference for me is like, yeah, other people can make decisions on the go. Like I believe it's manifested or manifesting generators can decide very, very quickly. But sometimes, yeah, for me I just, I have to tune into my intuition if my intuition doesn't feel right, you know, even though it may feel right for someone else, I have to listen to that cuz it's, it's always guiding me. Mm-Hmm. . But but yeah, using that has been a game changer cuz it's like I get to see my client for who they are . Yes. And help them to, to recognize like this is who they are and it's okay to be who they are. Speaker 1 (20:57): Yeah, I think that's key. And I, I'm just wondering cuz people probably come to you because you know, I know in functional medicine probably 80% of our clients are women over 40 because we suffer more than anyone with our health cuz we've got those, you know, wireless moving hormones that are changing and we've just got so many obstacles to navigate as we age. And one thing that I try to help all my clients understand is that it's not just about your physical health. You know, some people say, just tell me the supplements I need to take. Tell me the diet I need to eat, tell me the exercises I need to do. I don't wanna change anything in my life. Kirin, I just want you to tell me those things so I can plug them in and be fine. And I really step back and say, yeah, it's more than that. Speaker 1 (21:45): It's how you're living your life, how you're showing up, how you're making decisions, how you're setting boundaries are not. So do you find that most people are open and receptive to hearing this information? Or what, what is their reaction and how do you navigate it if people say, yeah, I don't wanna know any thing about that Kate . Well, the good thing is, you know, I'm very upfront with, with someone before they, they work with me and if, if someone's not open, you know, I let 'em want let them know like this is a part of the work that I do. And so not everyone is open to that. And, and that's okay. You know, I know everybody's on their own journey and so I work with my clients as as, as best as I can, meet them where they're at. And sometimes I'm like, okay, if we need to work on the physical things first, we can do that. Speaker 1 (22:34): But for the most part, everyone that has worked with me, you know, is really open into diving more cuz they understand that yeah, it's not necessarily just the physical healing that ne needs to happen. It it, there's a, there's a deeper healing that needs to happen as well. The mental, the emotional piece. And so the clients that work with me, they, they really want to get to the bottom and are open and and willing to do whatever it takes, even if it means diving into what's happening with the subconscious mind and helping them to regulate their nervous system and doing things a little bit differently than they've done before. Because obviously, you know, what they've done before wasn't working. And so yeah, they're coming to me to, to get that guidance and see things. And that's another thing as a productor, we see things from a different perspective, these little tweaks, these little changes, little things that they can do that they can add that's going to Yeah, give them profound effects in their life. Speaker 1 (23:30): Right? Yes. I mean that's something I bet that you've been doing this your whole life and you didn't realize that this was a special gift that you've been given , it's like your superpower then you can, people can come to you and you can really, you just see it and people are like, oh my gosh, you're brilliant. But it's just how you're designed. You're designed to truly see people at depth. And one of the things, I know you just mentioned nervous system regulation. Can you talk a little bit about that? Because I don't know that that's something that most people are aware of also. So how, is that something that you use to help educate clients and guide them and help them to heal? Yeah, so the first thing I ask is what emotion are you experiencing consistent daily basis? Because emotions are basically, the language of the body is what Dr. Speaker 1 (24:20): Joe Dispenza likes to say . So I'm a huge, huge fan of his work. But yeah, emotions will, will give us a clue as to the state that our bodies are in. And the state I'm talking about is, are we in a sympathetic state or are we in a parasympathetic state? Cuz I believe like most of us are operating in that sympathetic state, which is that that fight or flight response. And when we're in that state, you know, most of us are in that state chronically, which is not good. It does affect our health long term because I really truly believe like our nervous system is what's influencing the health, you know, affecting our gut. It's, you know, slowing down the signals affecting our digestion and how we break down and absorb our food. And elimination, it's also increasing the signals to, you know, our adrenal glands ramping up cortisol levels, which can also affect our glucose. Speaker 1 (25:08): And then it's also slowing down the signals to our reproductive organs. So there goes the hormonal issues, , you know, and women especially, they're going through menopause, you know, their hormones already are imbalanced and so the cortisol is spiked, you know, that's adding even more to the hot flashes and, and then yeah, and then there's the immune system. It's also impacting our immune system. So that's where a lot of autoimmune disorders pop up. And when it comes to autoimmune, you know, and actually any issue really any imbalances we have and chronic issues, it's, I was thinking about this the other day. I'm like, every like chronic disease, you know, lists all the risk factors and every single one of these diseases and disorders have stress as a risk factor. But we're not really taught how to adapt to stress. We're not taught how to like master our emotions and how to, you know, respond calmly in stressful situations. Speaker 1 (26:01): Instead, we just immediately react because of the conditioning. You know, growing up my, I love my mom, but she was all, she was just stressed out, anxious all the time, constantly reacting . And that's how I learned like, oh, like when this happens, freak out, you know, . Yeah. But that's not a healthy stress response. And so when it comes to nervous system regulation, it just started observing like, when I'm under stress, what is happening? How, how do I feel? You know, mentally, emotionally, how does my body feel physically? So it's, it's building that awareness and recognizing, wow, I've, I'm like, I'm just constantly in this, this state of fight or flight. And I remember as I was starting to work on this regulation piece, I remember sitting here at my desk as, as we are now, and just like tuning in. I'm like, I'm not even stressed out thinking about anything, but my abdominal muscles were really tight, my neck muscles were really tight, my jaw was really tight. Speaker 1 (26:56): I'm like, what is going on ? And I, I realized, I'm like, wow, my, you know, I'm, I'm in that sympathetic state. I'm in that fight or flight state. And so, so it was just starting to build that awareness and, and tuning in and basically reconditioning my mind and, you know, changing the thoughts that I was having. So I recognized a lot of those thoughts were, were causing my body to go into that state, but also recognizing patterns and, and how I was reacting and starting to train myself to actually respond calmly instead of immediately reacting and going into that, that fight response. Cause you know, with the stress response, I, I realized like we all, we all respond in different ways. There's, despite where we automatically go into defensiveness, we wanna prove we're right, you know, and, and that's where the perfectionism comes in. Speaker 1 (27:46): And that's definitely the where I used to live, you know, and, and that needing to be perfect and everything that I did. But there's also the flight where when people are stressed out, they will distract themselves from feeling a certain way. And so they'll use like food or alcohol or even scrolling on social media, different things like that just to distract them from feeling a certain way. And then there's that freeze response where they just want to completely, like, they're, they're paralyzed, they're frozen, they completely avoid conflict, you know, when they're under stress. And then there's that font type where they go into people pleasing and people that you know, excessively apologize. And there's a statement I I once read as like, you know, over apologizing is basically saying, sorry for just like existing. And I'm like, whoa, . Yeah. Why are we apologizing for just being human and for existing? Speaker 1 (28:35): You know? But we tend to over apologize, you know, for so many things, you know, for whatever reason, you know, because we, we feel like we're being a burden. We're we're being too much, you know? But at the end of the day it's like, no, that's that fond stress response. So starting to recognize the patterns can help us start to, to regulate our nervous system and recognize like when I respond to stress, is this a healthy response or is it an unhealthy response? And, and how it's affecting our body. But you know, going back to the emotions, you know, I recognize like when we are experiencing, you know, anxiety and depression and or feeling so in, in human design, I find it fascinating cuz when we're in our not self being, so for example, generators will experience a lot of frustration. Manifestors will experience anger, projectors will experience a lot of bitterness, resentment, reflectors, disappointment. Speaker 1 (29:25): And that's because we're in that sympathetic state. Because we're not operating in alignment with our design. We're not operating as who we are. And so we're gonna experience these what I call low vibrating emotions, which is our sympathetic state. But if we can switch out of that, you know, into a parasympathetic state, now we're gonna experience more love, more happiness, more joy, more peace, more fulfillment. And so the key is to like, okay, how can we get back to that state and experience more of those emotions? Cuz we're, and we are experiencing more of those emotions. We know that we're in that parasympathetic state which then supports our health long term. That's is the state that's gonna support healing. Cause we can't really support our healing if we're still stuck in that sympathetic state. Yes. So getting that switched back from paras, from sympathetic to parasympathetic is key. Speaker 1 (30:19): I'm wondering if you might share just one strategy that people might try to help regulate. Like say they're listening and they're noticing like you did. Oh yeah. My abdominal muscles will try, oh, I'm shallow breathing and woo. Yeah, I'm probably in sympathetic state. So one thing that they might try to just dial that down and step into that parasympathetic state. Yeah. More fully. Mm-Hmm. . That's a great question. Well the simplest thing and the most easiest and cheapest is, is tuning into our breath. Going back to breath work, you know. And just when I was in that recognizing like everything was tight, I just started focusing on breathing and I was telling my body at the same time, like, relax, it's okay, we're safe . Because the reason why we're tight intense is cuz like the body thinks we're not safe. And you know, all these perceived threats and demands, you know, and needing to do everything on our to-do list can be a perceived threat. Speaker 1 (31:21): You know things that are happening with people around us. And so I remember just closing my eyes and taking deep breaths and just telling my body, relax, release. And that's another word, release release. Cause sometimes we're holding onto things and so just saying that and saying, it's okay, I'm safe, I'm okay. You know, can really bring that body back into that, that parasympathetic state. Mm-Hmm. the breath. So key. And you know, when I pay attention to my breath, I find how many times a day I actually stop breathing. Yeah. I love dancing. And so I, I do dance lessons or like zu and Zama and my dance instructor's constantly telling me, breathe, , breathe. You're not breathing. And it's like, oh, I'm focusing on learning the new steps. And to me that's like a very anxiety producing cuz I wanna do it right. Speaker 1 (32:16): Right. I wanna do it perfect Lee. And, and then I hold my breath. Mm-Hmm and I make myself in this sympathetic nervous is the state, which is not conducive for learning. So I'm really shooting myself on the foot. So yeah, I wanna encourage everyone to breathe, take some deep breaths. Breathe. I, I love this. Yeah. This quote you shared with me from Peter Cro Life will present you with people and circumstances to reveal where you are not free. And it just stuck out to me right there because everybody listening, maybe these are some places and things that you needed to hear where you could re it could reveal where you're not free. So can you talk a little bit about what this means and actually who Peter Cro is? I don't even know, but I love that quote. I love Peter Cro. He's known as the mind architect if that doesn't say anything. Speaker 1 (33:09): . Yeah. But he's so good about just like pulling out the constructs of our subconscious mind and helping people to see like the way they've been and how they can live their life. And I love this quote cuz on my journey, this quote, life will present you with people and circumstances to reveal where you're not free was eye-opening quote to help me recognize my triggers every time I'm triggered. Instead of blaming someone that you feel a certain way, it's like, wait, no. Like why do I feel triggered right now? Because I recognize my triggers was not because of something someone said or something did, but because of the limiting belief I had in that moment, I felt like I wasn't good enough or I felt like I wasn't worthy or I felt like I was doing something wrong and then I could go back to something that happened in my childhood, you know, where there was something that happened then that, you know, cuz it's like these triggers are linked to our past experiences and the more experiences we have, the more they get linked together that just validate these beliefs . Speaker 1 (34:17): So yeah, I love that quote. And it's, it's a quote I use with my clients often to help them recognize, like, especially when they get triggered and something's bothering them or if you're feeling resistance, it's like, okay, where are you not free right now? Like it has nothing to do with the other person because yeah, the other person may be reacting because they have stuff that you know is going on inside of them. It's just been a really, really powerful quote for me. It is super powerful. I'm gonna have to look into Peter Krone and it reminds me of this podcast I just came across yesterday called It's not You, it's your trauma . Speaker 1 (34:55): Which I love that because you know, I think part of getting your physical health straight is you've got to disassemble this stress response and yourself. And part of it is that you're getting triggered, we're getting triggered all over the place and trying to fight with the external world to be different so we can feel okay inside when the truth is that's not possible. The only person you can change is yourself and to disassemble the triggers, the trigger buttons that you have where you're not free and change yourself so that the external environment isn't stressful. That's really something I think sooner or later that we each have to, to do if we are to get our cortisol under control. So here's where the hormone prescription comes in, y'all, you know, I tie everything to hormones, it's all about clean cortisol and if we don't serve her and we don't give her what she needs, which is a safe, comfortable life where we're not reacting to everything and everyone, then we're just never gonna achieve what's possible for us. Speaker 1 (36:01): Right? Yeah, absolutely. I completely agree. Personal experience right here, , right? Same for me. It's like I'm in the process of really disassembling these triggers and it's, yeah, the lessons are never ending. But I do love this quote you have from Shakespeare too that follows exactly to this. Nothing is ever good or bad, but thinking makes it so. Yeah. So do you wanna talk a little bit about that? Yes. Another really powerful quote that that's helped me on my journey, because I realize at the end of the day, everything is a perception. You know, everything that a thought we have is, is really based on our, our perceptions. Whether we think something's good or we think something's bad because what we think is good, what we think is bad, another person may think the opposite. And you know, and that's okay. We all have our own thoughts and our beliefs and our perceptions and we also have, you know, based on our perceptions create these stories. Speaker 1 (36:57): And if we can recognize like these stories is what, you know, puts us, sends us down this, this path of like, yeah, going down in, into a sympathetic state or being in a parasympathetic state. Like it really all starts with our thoughts. And that's something that I, I talk a lot about my clients and actually first thing I have them do is like start tuning into their thoughts. What are their thoughts? What are they thinking about themselves? What are they thinking about their health? Because say I have someone who wants to lose weight, and I'm like, okay, well how much weight do you wanna lose? And they're like, well I wanna lose this much weight. Well, why do you wanna lose that much weight? Well, because blah, blah blah, blah blah. And I'm like, well, have you ever been at that weight? And they're like, yeah. Speaker 1 (37:37): And so I got curious. I'm like, well, when you were at that weight, how did you feel? And they're like, well I was stressed out . And I'm like, well, how do you feel now? Well, I'm stressed out trying to lose weight. I'm like, okay. So I'm like, obviously when, when we're thinking about, you know, something like losing weight like that. Yeah, that feels very stressful. And so instead of focusing on losing weight, what's a different thought? How about like, I want to just feel healthy, I want to feel vibrant, I wanna feel energized, like I wanna feel strong. So what are the action steps you're gonna take to do that? Versus like, oh, I wanna lose weight, so now I gotta eat a salad and now I gotta exercise. Like it's, it's a completely different energy. So for me it's like, yeah, let's tune into our thoughts because yeah, whatever's happening in our life, it's not good or bad. Speaker 1 (38:25): So can we like start to neutralize the things because you know, when we are triggered it's because yeah, we're, we're perceiving it as as bad . So can we take a step back and, and yeah, going back to the the other quotes like recognizing, okay, where am I not free in this moment and, and what are my thoughts around that? And can I start to shift? And, and my favorite tool when it comes to perception is, is doing a, a reframe, you know, seeing things from a different perspective because there's so many different lenses of perspective that we can look through. We're only looking through one, but if we can start to shift and see things from a different perspective, it really starts to shift how we feel energetically and physically as well. So well said. It's beautiful and you know, I could talk to you probably for hours, but we'll keep it short. Speaker 1 (39:12): Maybe we'll have you back, we'll talk more human design. But this other quote from Maryanne Williamson that you shared, I love Maryanne Williamson. If you are listening, you don't know Maryanne. I definitely recommend looking into her because she has so much to teach about living in love versus fear. You know, her book Re Return to Love is one of my favorites. And so the quote is, as we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. And I I wanna say that, you know, the first time I met you at JJ Virgins, her mind share conference, so everybody listening, it's a conference that a lot of health printers go to and she has her mind share collaborative where we support each other. I remember meeting you at the Halloween party and you and your husband had the most amazing costumes, but I felt so drawn to you and you know, this idea of our presence automatically liberates others. Speaker 1 (40:09): I felt that from you. So can you talk a little bit about how this shows up in your life, what this quote means to you, and really your journey from liberating yourself from fear because it's fear that keeps us in that flight fight, freeze font response. So I'd love if you could share that before we wrap up. Yeah, absolutely. Now this, this quote is just a piece, I think it's the last piece of a bigger quote. So I highly encourage, if you're listening, go read the entire quote cuz it's just so powerful. And I love this quote so much and my husband does too, that we, we, I like, I bought a picture frame so we have it in our home, in the middle of our home so we can see it every single day. But this quote is so, is so powerful because it's true. Speaker 1 (40:55): I realize at the end of the day, the reason yeah, why we are in a sympathetic state is because we're focused on fear. And that's really been just like the found foundation, like all there is is is love or fear. And if we can recognize like every, every thought we have, every, you know, action we take, you know, every decision we make, every everything that we do, is it around fear or is it around love? Because if it's around fear, it's obviously yeah, going to put us in that sympathetic state, it's going to make us feel certain emotions and then if we're in that state long enough, it's going to impact our health. So for me, yeah, recognizing like I was, yeah, definitely operating from that place of fear and shifting back into love has been so powerful for me and that's why, yeah, I love Maryanne Lewis and that's one of my favorite books as well. Speaker 1 (41:45): Return to Love, Dr. Joe Dispenses, another incredible humane being who is on a mission in, in helping people just reconnect back to love. So if you guys haven't checked out his work, I highly recommend he's got three incredible books. But yeah, this quote has been powerful for me because I realized like I needed to go through everything that I went through, you know, experiencing the anxiety, experiencing the migraines, experiencing almost losing my, my soulmate because of everything I needed to experience the pain mentally, physically, emotionally, so I could learn the lessons that I needed to learn and be here to share, share everything I've learned on my journey, you know, the, the insights, the tools to help people step out of the conditioning, step out of the fear, step out of the limitations and step into who they really are. Because when you're living in embodiment of who you are, you are in your best health, you're, you're, you feel incredibly, you know, not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, spiritually. Speaker 1 (42:51): And when we're in that place, like it just makes life worth living. We have so much peace, so much freedom, fulfillment, you know, and, and that's my mission, that's my goal. I want women to have access to this. Like we all have the tools, the power within us, you know, to heal, to, to live our best life. We just, we haven't tapped into that yet. And that's my goal is to help women to tap into that. So that's why this, this quote has been really, really powerful for me. And I, I appreciate your, your statement cuz that's my goal. I'm like, I want women to see me like being liberated. And so that allows them, gives them the permission to, to liberate themselves, which in fact is what my next book is going to be called is Liberated . Yes, I love it. Yes. So as you shine your light, you allow you give others the permission to do it. Speaker 1 (43:47): I'm so glad that you have done this work and had your, the journey that you've had. I know it wasn't easy , you know, having followed somewhat of a similar path, it's really arduous, but I think that as projectors, it, it's what allows us to have the grit and the insight to actually help to guide others on their journeys successfully. So thank you for that and thank you for all the wonderful resources that you have to share with everyone. If you wanna tell them about your stress response quiz, we're gonna have a link to that in the show notes. We're also going to have a link to your already enough course. Do you wanna tell everybody what the we'll find with these resources? Yeah, absolutely. So you can find a lot of these resources on my website. It is currently your radiant health.com. But because of this journey, , I'm transitioning from Radiant Health to Radiant by Design because yeah, it's not just just functional medicine anymore, it's it's nervous system regulation. Speaker 1 (44:50): I'm adding in the human design piece, like we're healing different parts of ourselves, we're diving deep into the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual elements. And so, so yeah, it's radiant by design right now. Or excuse me, you're radiant health.com, but eventually we'll be radiant by design.com. But yeah, you can access those resources there. You also, I have my, my quiz and already enough is a podcast course which I created because I recognize a lot of women are busy on the go. And so I just recorded all the insights, the tools, five to 10, 15 minute episodes to dive into a subconscious mind, the nervous system regulation, emotional regulation piece, and also the tools to help them move out, that stress response into that sympathetic or flow state is what I call it. So they can start embodying, you know, being, being already enough. And you can also find me on Instagram at the Kate Vasquez and that's Vasquez with Double Z's, V A Z Q U E z.

On this week's episode, I interviewed the lovely Kate Vazquez, functional medicine physician's assistant and author of “Estrogen Is a Bitch.” Kate and I talked about the common hormonal imbalance called estrogen dominance, the 3 primary patterns of estrogen dominance, and how hormones, the gut and the nervous system are all interconnected.
In this week's episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, we had a conversation with the amazing Kate Vazquez. Kate is the co-founder and medical mastermind behind Radiant Health. She has worked as a Physician Assistant in cardiology, the emergency room, and urgent care. Today she shares the secrets to preventing estrogen dominance which can be detrimental to a woman's physical, emotional, and psychological health. In this talk, Kate gets into what estrogen dominance actually is, the 5 main telltale signs of hormone imbalance, how to develop estrogen metabolism, the importance of staying in a parasympathetic nervous system, and more. Of course, we also talk about how cleaning our gut can have tremendously significant results when starting to rebalance the hormones in our bodies. So often, we may think that depression, anxiety, and overall stress can't have many physiological effects on our bodies but that is far from the truth. Kate makes it very known that stress can be of the most exacerbating factors when it comes to hormone imbalance, so it's immensely important to find ways to manage stress, and it starts with eating clean, exercising, and other practices such as meditation or reading. Tune in to find out more key tips to overcome hormone imbalances to begin living happier and healthier!

And so before that time, we have a lot of estrogen in our system before ovulation, which is in the first half of our menstrual cycle.” “So we always have a lot of estrogen in our system but we need that balance with progesterone in the remedial phase to help balance that out… So the problem is when there isn't enough of that progesterone to balance out that estrogen.” “What I discovered is there are 5 telltale signs of hormone imbalance.

In this episode, I interview Kate Vazquez about what Estrogen Excess or more commonly known as “Estrogen Excess” is, when to check your hormones, the phases of the menstrual cycle, signs of too much estrogen, how it becomes imbalanced and what to do to get it back in check Stress is a huge contributing factor to estrogen excess and probably the one we least want to admit or work towards adjusting. Gut health is another one that is a huge contributor to estrogen excess because of the Estrobolome (listen to this episode or episode 37 for more information about how our gut microbiome impacts our estrogen) https://shetalkshealth.com/podcast/ep-37-how-poop-impacts-your-estrogen-levels/ (https://shetalkshealth.com/podcast/ep-37-how-poop-impacts-your-estrogen-levels/). Next up we have inflammation from processed foods, sugar and inflammatory oils! Eek! We have to get that inflammation under control in order to have healthy estrogen levels. One of ways to support this is through reducing those foods listed above and increasing nutrient dense foods Speaking of nutrient dense foods - look for foods rich in magnesium, b vitamin (esp b6), Vitamin C in order to replenish the reserves we need to metabolize estrogen. Histamine is yet another place we need to look when it comes to estrogen. I've had clients reduce histamine rich foods and see PMS be eliminated. We also discuss histamine in Episode 44 https://shetalkshealth.com/podcast/ep-44-the-histamine-estrogen-and-pms-connection/ (https://shetalkshealth.com/podcast/ep-44-the-histamine-estrogen-and-pms-connection/) We talk about several other factors and what to do about them in order to feel better in the episode! I hope you enjoy!
Do any of these symptoms sound familiar? Mood swings, headaches, difficulty losing weight, severe menstrual cramps, irregular periods, trouble becoming pregnant… Many women are suffering every month and many have irregular cycles. There is so much hormonal imbalance affecting women and they are being medicated and are being told these symptoms are normal. Their bodies quite possibly have imbalances in their gut, adrenals, and hormones which cause them to suffer every month. So often they are given birth control pills for their imbalance, which does not treat the root cause. Estrogen does become an issue when it is not balanced. Kate Vazquez is a Functional Medicine Physician Assistant, founder of Radiant Health, and an Award Winning Author. She loves empowering high performance women to reclaim their health and vitality to become the confident leader and lover they aspire to be. She created an online course, The Estrogen Reset, and wrote a bestseller, Estrogen Is A B*tch, to bring awareness about estrogen dominance.

Today we're talking about something super interesting and that is the nuances of estrogen. Estrogen is one of those hormones that is synonymous with femininity on the 30,000-foot level. But, as we get closer and closer to the ground, what seems like a simple and emblematic hormone for females is actually infinitely more complex than what it first seems. And what we're beginning to see over time is increased interference from our environment and an increased understanding of the roles that estrogen plays, the different types of estrogen, and what the breakdown products of estrogen have the capacity to contribute towards in terms of health — both good and bad. This entire episode is all about estrogen; how we need to handle it, how we can harness it, and everything you need to know to make it your friend.

Tweetables: “I … realized the reason why women are suffering every month with PMS symptoms is because of the hormonal imbalance that doesn't get addressed. And of course, in conventional medicine, it's treated with birth control. Because that's definitely not the answer. — Kate Vasquez “There are a lot of disorders and conditions associated with estrogen dominance that women aren't aware of, such as endometriosis, adenomyosis, PCOS … breast cancer. … [Women] are not aware because we put these labels on them and they're treated a certain way.” — Kate Vasquez “A lot of women will ask me, ‘Well, does my period start the cycle? Or is it at the end of the cycle?' So it's really important that we … educate women because the menstrual phase is the start of the cycle. So day one of your period is day one of the cycle.” — Kate Vasquez “We have the power to create health and disorder in the body. … Being mindful of our thoughts can really affect the quality of our life and how our cells respond.” — Kate Vasquez “If we can optimize and maximize our sleep, we're going to feel so much better. Even studies have proven [that] it reduces chronic disorders, … [and] it actually helps with our hormones. ... I would say optimizing your sleep is probably the best health hack.” — Kate Vasquez
