I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 1:01  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the implementable convo I had with Jan Schroeder in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to this one, you should go back and listen. It's a perimenopause one, guys, we finally got someone who really is like a wealth of knowledge in this area and on a specific niche of it. And I'm so, so excited for it to hear, for you to hear all of it. So anyways, you're gonna want to listen to this and listen to that. Today is September 12th 2024 and it's Are You Okay Day. So the history of Are You Okay Day, in 1995 Barry Larkin's death by suicide left his family and friends in deep grief and with unanswered questions. In 2009, his son, Gavin Larkin, chose to do something about his father's death. He came up with just one question to honor his father and prevent more suicides: "Are you okay?" Gavin and a few of his friends decided to turn it into a national campaign from this realization and with their expertise and passion, R U OK? was born. So Gavin actually passed away in 2011 but truly held onto the belief that a conversation could change a life. His legacy is now a national conversation movement. R U OK? is a harm and suicide prevention charity that encourages people to have conversations that help others and themselves navigate the difficult times in their lives. You can learn more about R U OK? on the thing, it's really wonderful what they're doing. There's also some really other amazing charities. Our friend, Mai, is actually part of the Nevada suicide prevention.Brad Crowell 2:23  Yeah, it's ruok.org and I think it's ..org.au Lesley Logan 2:28  Awesome. Brad Crowell 2:29  And that's A, not A-R-E, it's the letters R and then the letter U, ruok.org.auSpeaker 1 2:37  There's also, in the States, there's the AFSP and this one, you can learn more about suicide. You can learn how to help prevent it. And usually, different states have their own local organizations of those. So, really important and if you are needing a phone number, 1-800-273-TALK (8255) is the phone number you can call for prevention, lifeline for suicide. And there's also a lot more information on calling it death by suicide or died by suicide, because there's a lot more research around why this is happening, how this is going on. And it's not as selfish as we have come to think. So it's really, really important that you check that out. All right, some upcoming events and travel. Like we said last week, we're kind of sitting around and that and in Las Vegas and enjoying the best time of the weather that is here. But we're also thinking big time about 2025 because it's gonna be here before we know it. And a lot of the things we work on are years in the making. So eLevate, which is our mentorship program, that is something we actually accept applications for early, because it's a big program, and we wanna make sureBrad Crowell 3:39  It's a commitment, it's a, you know, the transformation that you are going to get is massive. Speaker 1 3:45  And it also is something that will continue to change and evolve in your life over time. So it's not like you just do it for nine months and it's over. There's like, more that you get out of it. It's like a fine wine, it just, or a tequila, right? So if you are a teacher interested in our mentorship program, go to lesleylogan.co/elevate and you can learn more about it. You can hear what our past grads had to say. We've now had 49 people do the program, 50 people.Brad Crowell 4:10  Yeah,Something like that. Lesley Logan 4:10  Yeah. And I'm, just because we keep the groups nice and small. So I'm really, really excited for 2025. Also in 2025 is our February Cambodia retreat. Brad Crowell 4:18  Yeah, come join us. Lesley Logan 4:19  Oh, my God.

Plus we get to enjoy a beautiful country. Brad Crowell 4:32  Plus lots of Pilates. Lesley Logan 4:54  Lots of Pilates.

If you're feeling stuck with your money, I want you to come join me for a free webinar that I'm hosting called the Pilates Studio Growth Accelerator. And we're going to be uncovering three big secrets that we've come to realize over the years after having coached more than 2000 businesses coming through our coaching program, join me at prfit.biz/accelerator. That's profit without the O dot biz slash accelerator to sign up for free. Lesley Logan 6:09  All right, before we get into the amazing conversation, I had with Jan about our fitness and perimenopause, we've got an audience question to answer, yes? Brad Crowell 6:16  Yeah, we sure do. "Is the AeroPilates reformer sufficient for reformer training in a small space or a piece of junk, and I should just try to find a legit reformer somewhere else to practice with?" asks @etain.pilates on the YouTube.Speaker 1 6:31  Yeah. So we actually even went deep into discussion, because I had several questions about affordable reformers for home practice and things like that. So there is an actual long form answer to this question, and I'm going to give you a snippet of it, and hopefully, if you need more information, you go watch that. Actually I have two videos. We have one on how to choose reformer for at home, and then we have me answering this question, like, how do I find affordable reformer at home? So I'm not going to call anything junk, especially when I don't know why it was created. Something that's really important to note is that Pilates equipment is typically created for the style of Pilates that's designed to go on it. Just like a treadmill or a bike or, you know, any kind of fitness thing, it is created for the style of work that you're going to do on it. So for me, if you are trying to do Pilates that's more classical or even typical contemporary I'm not talking like athletic reformer, because I don't know more about that. Then I don't know that the AeroPilates is going to be sufficient enough for home practice, because it's going to limit you, and it's going to change things in a way that you can't modify. So the foot bar, for example, it's not going to be the angle you're used to when you teach or you go to a studio, the straps, the handles, the bungee cord versus spring. So I'm not going to say it's junk. I'm going to say that if you are trying to deepen your reformer practice, it's going to be like you don't see sprinters for the Olympics training on ice skates. They don't. Right? It's just, there's nothing wrong with ice skates.Brad Crowell 7:57  I think a better comparison there would be, they're not training in a walking shoe, they're training in a running shoe. Lesley Logan 8:05  Correct. You're correct. Okay, that's a better example.Brad Crowell 8:07  They are certainly not training on ice skates. Obviously, you're you're not going to try to do Pilates on a trampoline.Speaker 1 8:11  Fair, fair, fair, a better analogy. Kind of come up things on the spot, some, they can't all be brilliant, but you're correct. Like, the sprinters are not in, they're not even in regular running shoes but they're in track shoes with like.Brad Crowell 8:11  That's actually the best analogy. They're not training in running shoes, they're training in sprinting shoes.Speaker 1 8:27  We got that, we got we got there, we got there. So what I would say is I would find a studio that you can rent space at and abuse theirs, or I would find a used reformer that truly is more like what you're used to and accustomed to and make it a piece of furniture in your home. People are not expecting homes to look like hotels. They expect homes to look like things you live in, so get the one you like. That's my answer. If you want to get a discount on a Balanced Body or Contrology piece, you can check out opc.me/perks, we do have discount links on all of that stuff. Brad Crowell 8:58  Yeah. And if you're trying to find our YouTube channel, just go to opc.me/yt. All right. Well, thanks for asking that question. If you have questions that you'd like to ask, feel free to text us at 310-905-5534, or hit us up on Instagram. Just that. Mention us and fire away. Stick around. We'll be right back. Brad Crowell 9:17  All right. Now, let's talk about Jan Schroeder. Dr. Jan Schroeder is a professor at Long Beach State University and coordinator of their unique Bachelor of Science in fitness. So you can literally go to college for fitness. And that's. Lesley Logan 9:33  It's like, one of the only places you can do that. Brad Crowell 9:35  I think she said it is the only place. Lesley Logan 9:37  Yes, yes. Oh, shout out to Michelle Sims (inaudible), she connected me with Jan because she said is there anything you need? I'm like, yeah, I need two people. I need people on perimenopause, who do you know?Brad Crowell 9:46  Yeah, so Jan, Dr. Schroeder has a PhD in exercise physiology and she's passionate about educating women on the importance of personalized fitness strategies, overall well-being and self-care during and after menopause. She encourages women to prioritize their health, understand the changes in their bodies, and adapt exercise and lifestyle habits tailored to their physiological, social and psychological needs.Lesley Logan 10:12  Just, okay, was, I found it really enlightening. I felt like there was so much permission. I found like she had so much information. There's a lot of people who are out there now talk about perimenopause, and I'm loving how much advice and information out there. I thought I was like, oh my god, I'm going through it early. I got some help from Femgevity, and I'm not, but I actually do have some support, some bio identicals to just enjoy my life and keep a baseline. But she talked about, like, how we don't really need to, like, go, oh my god, I'm going through this. I can't go, there's so much support out there. But a lot of times the things that we are doing as we go through perimenopause and into menopause are actually giving us reverse results we want. So she specifically took a little lens of fitness. And when you are in perimenopause and post-winter and like, winter menopausal because your hormones change, she advocates that you have to have a holistic approach to combining exercise, nutrition and hormonal management to navigate menopause effectively. And she really gave us some tools on like just adjusting our behavior. So it's not like this negative thing, but actually it supports these changes, because these changes don't have to be a bad thing. There's positives to it as well.Brad Crowell 11:21  Yeah, that was one of the biggest things she was talking about. Is that we only ever seen to hear or talk or think about the negatives, and we very rarely think about the positives of it. Lesley Logan 11:35  I also just want to say, like, I love that what she talked about, like a 40-minute workouts or less, working out in the morning, doing different things that can actually support so that the workouts you're doing are supporting your health, your longevity, your cardiovascular system, your bones, if weight loss is something you're wanting to do, those are all really important things. And the world is set up with these hour-long classes, high-intensity classes, and we've got women over 40 doing these crazy metabolic workouts when really they need some strength. They need some move meditation. And so I was like, patting myself on the back. I'm like, OPC is 30-minute classes, just saying, and you can do when you want.Brad Crowell 12:15  Well, I thought something that was really interesting was she talked about this natural inclination that we have to we, meaning women who are going through menopause, that they have, as they hit menopause, they just stop moving. Lesley Logan 12:30  It's a real it was really interesting. The part of the brain that just goes, okay, I'm not gonna tell you to get up.Brad Crowell 12:35  Yeah, she said the stats are 40% less movement typically as a woman is hitting menopause, and I don't know if that's just built into how we are, or if it's like, oh, this societally adopted thing of like, oh, I hit this phase in my life and I'm gonna just stop now.Lesley Logan 12:52  It did. And she said it doesn't even sound like it was a conscious thing. It's likeBrad Crowell 12:55  (Inaudible) she said women tend to sit more. They're just sitting more. And she said, it's really important to start paying attention to those things using a fitness tracker or a journal, so that you can start to track yourself and be like, oh, wow. I used to get 10,000 steps, and now I'm getting 6000 steps. How did I end up doing that? Right? So we use an aura ring. Can't give you a link to it, really, it's not that easy to do that, but the Oura ring, it connects to your health app on your phone, and it tracks a whole lot of different things. But she said, be mindful. Jot those things down. She said it is actually reduced activity level is dictated by estrogen. So yeah, you're right. It doesn't seem like it's a conscious thing. She explained, the estrogen affects different tissues in the brain, especially the hypothalamus, which is responsible for how much food you eat, how hungry you feel, how much energy you are feeling like you can expend, want to expend. She said, when we take estrogen away through menopause, what the brain does is the hypothalamus cannot regulate these things anymore the way you used to. So it's important for you to consciously regulate them yourself. Be aware of that stuff. So yeah, I mean, I found that really intriguing. Stick around. We'll be right back. Brad Crowell 14:08  All right, welcome back. So finally, let's talk about those Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo with Dr. Jan Schroeder? She advised against long duration cardio workouts during menopause. And y'all, we talked about this about a million times that the 80s were all about running and cardio, and that was how you're gonna lose weight and it has been busted and disproven. That is not reality a million times over. But what I found really interesting was she started to talk about cortisol, and when we hear cortisol, we immediately think negative things. We're like, oh, cortisol bad. And she said, No, actually, cortisol is also good, but we have to regulate how much of it that we have in our system. And as we age, more cortisol is just natural in our bodies. And then through menopause, it can kick it up a notch even more. And she started talking about things like, when are you doing your workout and how are you doing your workout, right? So when she started talking about working out earlier in the day, and then how you're doing your workout, cardio is gonna just add a lot of cortisol. And she said the problem with cortisol is it affects your sleep. You need it in the morning. It gets your brain going. It gets you going. But then in the end of the day, if you're jamming a lot of that, you know, if you're kicking off a lot of cortisol, you're going to have a difficult time sleeping. You're not going to process during sleep, because you're not going to be getting that sleep. And so basically, it becomes a problem if you're adding a lot to it at the end of your day. So she did recommend, this is where she was talking about 40 minutes or less and working out in the morning. And she recommends short bursts of high intensity of interval training to manage cortisol levels that's instead of long, long distance running kind of thing. So what about you? Lesley Logan 15:53  She said, You need to give yourself permission to back down. Oh, my god, are we sensing a theme of this podcast? So you need to give yourself permission to back down. She said, if you're a runner, that's gonna be too intense for you. So walk and put a weighted vest on. And I added a weighted vest to all of my walks. I'm gonna tell you guys, holy freaking molly, even if the walk is short, I'm no longer like, oh, my own we didn't do long enough walk today because it was too hot. Just adding that weighted vest intensified the walk. Brad Crowell 16:19  What did you get, 12 pounds? Lesley Logan 16:20  Not 12 pounds. Yeah.Brad Crowell 16:22  It's in the middle of the road one, right? Lesley Logan 16:23  Yeah, yeah. And I think now, hey, my in-laws, I would like a weighted vest where I can add weights or take them off. That's what I want for Christmas. Okay, but, like, maybe I have to look it up, because I'd like it to be a little sexier than what I've got. This is like the ugliest thing, but it's okay. It's fine. The looks don't matter. But it's those kinds of things, like, give yourself permission, that's going to be okay. We don't have to be at our highest level all the the time to be at our best self. And I thought that was really cool. You don't have to be your highest level all the time to be your best self. Brad Crowell 16:48  I think that is something that's been interesting for me, is being like, hey, today I generally don't feel like I can take on the world when I go to all my workout, right? And then being like, all right, it's all right, if I only do 80% of what I did last week on as far as weightlifting goes, or whatever. Lesley Logan 17:06  Yeah, and by the way, guys, it's called listening to your body. And also, like, if you keep going, wow, I keep feeling like I can't do it, then that's a sign you do that. Like other things are going on. You need to do some other things if you still have your cycle, ladies, I do use an app I have no affiliation to, called wild.ai that actually helps me figure out what kind of workouts I should be doing based on where I am in my cycle, which is really, really cool, because then what I do is I do more high intensity on the first two weeks-ish, and I do a little longer duration, lower intensity on the last two weeks. It has really helped me manage the cortisol as well. So I'm not doing cortisol when I have progesterone coming in, because that is a bad thing, and that's going to affect my sleep. It's going to affect my cycle. So.Brad Crowell 17:46  If all this is foreign language to you, we definitely encourage you to connect with Femgevity who has been helping Lesley really wrap her head around all this stuff and understand it for her body. Lesley Logan 17:56  You can go to beitpod.com/femgevity. Brad Crowell 17:59  Yeah. F-E-M Femgevity. Lesley Logan 18:01  Jan, you're brilliant. You gave us such an amazing look on fitness and perimenopause, and really great tips to just stay strong and stay with energy. And I'll also understand what's going on with our body and not see it as such a negative thing. Thank you so much, y'all. How are we going to use these tips in your life? We want to know, so make sure you can't tag Jan, because she's like, non-social, which I think, how cool is that?Brad Crowell 18:24  So cool. She's a professor. That's amazing. She also still teaches.Lesley Logan 18:27  She still teaches fitness, yeah, but tag the Be It Pod and then do me a favor, share this with a woman in your life. The thing that is so fascinating to me is that, how many women older than me did not have this information? And no, it wasn't out there. There wasn't a lot of research and we're doing more research now. But also, if we talk about this stuff, then it forces people, companies, other people, to find information for us. We get to demand what they talk about, by the way. So please share this with a friend so that we can change more women's lives and make going through perimenopause and endomenopause, and our years after that really thriving. It doesn't mean like it's bad. There's like, good stuff out there. So until next time, Be It Till You See It. Brad Crowell 18:32  Bye for now. Lesley Logan 18:43  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

I mean, that's a huge positive. I just sometimes think that the media focuses on all the big changes that can affect us. But they don't focus on, hey, this is just part of life. This is natural. This is not a big deal. We can make it better. Lesley Logan 0:21  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Ladies, this is the episode you have been asking me for. This is the one I have been hearing from you. I already say this when we get to Jan, but I just want you to know. I want you to be excited. I love this interview. I know I love them all. I do. But I love this interview. Shout out to my friend Michelle Sims, who introduced me to Jan Schroeder, our guest today. We are talking perimenopause, menopause and fitness. And I am so, so excited for this, because in being until we see it, when our hormones change, it can be freaking annoying. It can be very difficult. It's a big change. There's a lot you'll learn about yourself. And so what I love is we are now armed with some information, how to listen to our bodies and what our workouts need to look like. And you are going to love this, and it is positive and exciting, and there's not doom and gloom when it comes to perimenopause in this episode. So I cannot wait for you to get this information in your ears. Here is Jan Schroeder. All right, Be It babe. You asked a lot. I heard you. I told you to be patient. I know patience is not for many of us, but also especially when you want to know about perimenopause. So today's guest is Jan Schroeder. She's amazing. She's a dear friend of one of my friends, and so I'm so glad when the world's collided and we can talk today. Jan, will you tell everyone who you are and what you rock at? Jan Schroeder, PhD. 2:16  Of course. Well, first of all, Lesley, thank you so much for having me on because this is a topic that I love talking about. My name is Dr. Jan Schroeder. I am a professor at Long Beach State University. I am the coordinator for our Bachelor's of Science degree in fitness. We are one of the only universities in the country that has a degree in fitness. So we really focus on training students to go into the fitness industry, which is, I love it, because I developed the degrees.Lesley Logan 2:47  That's a degree I needed, and I went to college down the street. I should have gone there. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 2:51  Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Most of, most universities have an exercise science degree, which is more of a clinical track. You know that students want to go into physical therapy or occupational therapy, but we focus on, let's get them into the industry and teach them how to work with clients, and all of that. The science plus the art of the industry. Lesley Logan 3:12  Yeah, because working with humans is a whole, I've been teaching Pilates for 16 years, and I'm often a client of a personal trainer or something. I was telling this to my, those in my mentorship today, they're complaining. They said one of their clients is like, complain about being uncomfortable. And I said, Well, change is uncomfortable, and sometimes we have to be honest with people. So there's a difference between pain and discomfort. And I said I had a trainer called me out because I had fractured my tibial plateau, non-surgical, but I was off it for eight weeks, and so I'm starting to squat and lunge again, and I was immediately like, ow, can't do it, it hurts. And he, the first couple of times, changed the exercise, and then one day he's like, so Is it painful, or is it hard? I was like, oh, noted, and that's like long story to talk about your thing, like the art of working with people.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 4:06  Exactly. But it's also what makes it fun. You know? Lesley Logan 4:11  Never a dull day. So okay, but that means you've been doing this for like, your whole life? Jan Schroeder, PhD. 4:18  Yeah, yes, yes, and we just won't say how long that's been. It's, yeah, I've been in academia for a very long time, but I'm also in the industry. So I teach group exercise. I have my own business that deals with women who are going through the, you know, menopause and beyond. That's a clientele that I love. I love, love, love working with these women, because it's such a unique transition in our life, not just what's going on physiologically, but what's going on socially and psychologically, that it just is exciting. And I find that these women that I work with, they want to know the education behind it. Instead of just, just tell me what to do so I look better, it's now it moves beyond that, tell me what to do and why to do it so that I feel better.Lesley Logan 5:14  Yeah, I agree. I was telling my team. I was like, OPC is not for the 20-something who needs a burn. This is for the woman who's like she is, she's done on things. She's not, she knows what working out means. She knows she has to do it. She wants to feel seen and supported, and she wants it to make to be amazing in a few minutes she has for the day and like, that is who this is for. But she wants to know how it's working. But I think you know when you're younger, you can get away with, like, not knowing. You could just do anything. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 5:41  Yeah, exactly.Lesley Logan 5:44  You do get to a point especially, it's also very interesting. I think it really, I don't know, maybe doesn't suck because it's not doom and gloom. But it's interesting that at the point that our bodies are changing is also often, for many women, the point when they have time to think about their bodies and why it changed. So then it's almost like they don't have a baseline to kind of go off of. I don't know. Maybe that's just like something I've noticed. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 6:06  Yeah, and I well, and I also think the, I don't want to call it, I don't know, I'll call it the press, the media, around menopause, so oftentimes is negative that it doesn't focus on the positive aspects of menopause, like, thank God I no longer have a freaking period, you know? I mean, that's a huge positive. I can't get pregnant. That's a good thing. I just sometimes think that the media focuses on all the big changes that can affect us, but they don't focus on, you know, hey, this is just part of life. This is natural. This is not a big deal. We can make it better. Lesley Logan 6:49  Yeah, I think you're right. First of all, I rarely heard a, I would call when I was younger, they called like, the change. And like, it was a little hush, and you just see grandma, like, just fanning, you know, and you're freezing. And so just very specific examples, and then it's you're on the other side. But no one actually, like, talked about it and I feel what's really cool for me, I'm 41, and I have most of my friends are over 45 there are in their early 50s, and so they are telling me all the things are going through, and they are also telling me, like, hey, I wish I'd done this in my 40s. It would have made my whole life a whole lot easier. And so since you are in fitness, like, our fitness does change, especially when we're in the change. So can we talk a little bit about perimenopause, fitness versus menopause? Like, what happen? Do we get to work out easier (inaudible)?Jan Schroeder, PhD. 7:41  Well, it's, you know, with what our body's going through. So if you think about our physiology, we really peak for our strength, our cardio, respiratory fitness, our range of motion, so our flexibility. We peak in our 20s, which is pretty young to be. Lesley Logan 8:00  Why do we waste the peak on the 20 year old? She doesn't even know what she wants. She thinks she does, but we all know when we look back.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 8:08  Exactly. So then once we you know, we get past that, late 20s, early 30s, where, okay, now things are a little bit different. And you hear women go, oh yeah, I can't just go run five miles and lose 10 pounds. It's those sorts of things. So what's happening in the body is there's a lot of physiological changes that happen with aging. So just real quickly, my area of expertise, my PhD, is in exercise physiology, with a concentration in gerontology, so with the older adult, so studying how we possibly will decline in our physiology, it's not something that we can stop. We're all aging, but we can make it so we delay it. If you're an elite athlete when you were younger, you're going to see declines. If you didn't exercise, and you start exercising later in life, you may be in the best shape of your entire life because you got stronger, you got fitter, you know. So it's everybody's a little bit different, but with fitness, it does not need to decline, like people think it does, but we also have to take into account, okay, it may be harder to maintain that really elite level of fitness that some people enjoyed, maybe they were an athlete or a fitness competitor or something like that. That's hard to maintain as we get older, to have really good fitness level, not as hard to maintain. So does that make sense? Lesley Logan 9:46  Yeah, I think I'm with you. People have told me, like, oh, after 30 you're not getting any muscle, and there's all this more doom and gloom. It's like, then what's the point? My dad is 72, the time we're recording this, and he deadlifts almost 300 pounds, he back squats almost 300 pounds, and he benches over 200 and he is 72 and yes, he's not having huge gains whenever we do one rep max is like, it's not like 15, 20 pounds difference, but he's actually getting stronger. It's kind of amazing. So, yeah, it's, I see what you're saying. It's very cool. We have to just have expectations. Like I'm I used to run seven-minute miles. I no longer do.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 10:25  And do you want to? Lesley Logan 10:27  You know, I don't. Actually once I, here's the thing I noticed that perimenopause, and we'll get there, ladies,but like once I started working out, based on my cycle, I got this app, but it told me, like today, do higher volumes. This is what it looks like, if it's cardio, this is what it looks like when it's strength training. I feel so much better than when I worked out the exact same every single day of every single week, right? Just but me, you know, I again. I'm older now, so my body needs.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 10:54  Yeah. So it's, you know, with working out, as we go through this change, our hormones change, and that affects how we should work out for whatever particular goal it is. So I always talk to my clients about when they're going through this, we want to hit three areas. We need to worry about the symptoms. Maybe you have hot flashes, or maybe you can't sleep, or maybe you have that brain fog or some cognitive difficulties during this. These are all typical symptoms of menopause. So we need to work out to make sure that we're addressing those symptoms, and that's usually what women focus on. I want the symptoms gone, and especially like weight gain. That's a huge thing, because we tend to gain weight around the middle during this time period. But I also have to explain to them, okay, that's fantastic, and we are going to get there. We are going to do that. We're going to work on providing exercises and exercise routines that hope to minimize the symptoms, but we also have to work on our heart health, because as soon as we go through menopause and we lose our estrogen, our risk of heart disease increases dramatically, about five times. Lesley Logan 12:15  I heard that the other day, and I was like, oh, because you know, like, you're, I'm like, okay, how do we prolong? How do I get menopause (inaudible) I'll have my (inaudible) in my 60s. I'm sorry, I shouldn't beg for it to go away. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 12:28  Yeah, exactly. And the problem is with heart we don't think about it as women. The men have the heart disease. The men have heart attacks. Well, we get right up there with them, the same risk factor, and we do it really quickly. And the scary thing is, is that we don't recognize the signs of heart disease and heart attacks in women, because they're slightly different than men. But not only do we have to worry about heart health, we have to worry about our bones because you break a bone and it's not great. Lesley Logan 12:57  Yeah, I know. Everyone listening, whenever I teach on tour, whenever I can, I teach this one Pilates marching exercise. It's a standing marching thing, and I would make my 80-year-old client do it all the time, and she came twice a week, and she and she hated it. She rolled her eyes, and she's like, why am I doing this? And I'm like, to be honest, it's because if you fall and break a bone, that's kind of it for you. Like, that's the end. I'm just gonna be, it comes with risk, it's just like, it's a downward spiral. And she was like, you know, whatever, that day she went to Rodeo Drive. So I taught in L.A., she went to Rodeo Drive, and she had her phone in one hand and her purse in the other, and she was walking down those rounded Roman type steps, and she missed one, and her body did the marching thing where it picked its legs up, and she basically ran down the stairs. She did not fall, she did not break anything. And she said, do I have to do it every day? I'm like, yeah. And then I was like, thank God it worked. Yeah, but it's true. Like, it really is. It's a bad thing. So okay, we've heard about bones. We've heard about our heart, and that's like, so yes, we, yes, in perimenopause, a lot of women are like, I would like to not have this. My body is changing, my clothes don't fit, but you're saying we need to have, we have other focuses that are more important.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 14:12  Well, and I'm not saying symptom relief is not important, because it really is. If you have one through menopause, those hot flashes are brutal. They are brutal. A friend of mine explained it to me as she said, my body is internally combusting. And I'm like, yes, that is it. Because it's not like you're hot from being out in the sun, you are on fire. And if we can reduce the severity of that through activity, that's fantastic. If we can improve sleep, which is critical in this stage of our lives through exercise, that is important. So all three areas we gotta kind of keep in the back of her mind of I need to work on my heart, I need to work on my bones, but I also want symptom relief. Lesley Logan 15:05  Okay. Yeah. And we can do that through fitness? Because that's, okay, hold on, you have to tell me. Because when I read something, it was like, well, the workouts you can do, it almost seemed like baby workout. I was like, this is not gonna work for me. I already work out like, this is that's great if you've never done it, and I'm glad that there's something out there, but like this, I'm not just going to do a little bridge and hope it helps.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 15:26  Exactly, yeah, it's, you know, for those of us who've worked out all of our lives, one, we're a little bit better off in menopause than somebody who starts later. So, if you're, you know, for your listeners, if they're in their late 30s, early 40s, they gotta get on it. They gotta get that regular exercise program going. Because what the research shows is that women who have been active are better at keeping off the weight gain that we see, especially the weight gain around the belly, our bones are better. Our heart disease risk is lower. Symptoms tend to be less severe if we work out prior. You know, if we've, so, continue to work out. That's a good thing. Lesley Logan 16:13  My ladies who are in that age range, I don't care if you've got kiddos, busy life, this is the time. So yeah.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 16:19  But if we start working out later in life, doesn't mean that, oh well, I'm not going to have those benefits. Yes, you will, I promise you will. Lesley Logan 16:26  Yeah, good, yeah. So that's not that it's ever too late. It's just that there are some signs that, an evidence that it could be easier if, if you have the option to start, do it. Okay. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 16:37  Right. Yeah. And then for those of us who have worked out consistently. I typically work out 14, 15 hours a week. But, I mean, I'm in the industry. I've always been active, those sorts of things. I can't slack off on that. So what we find is that when we go through menopause, we start to reduce our activity level. We reduce our exercise level. We reduce our what we call spontaneous physical activity. You know, where you're up and cleaning the house, or you're up and gardening or whatever, we reduce that by almost 40%. Lesley Logan 17:16  Oh, that's going to be, you're gonna start seeing changes everywhere, inside and out, because that's a huge, that's not a little bit, that's a lot. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 17:25  That is a lot and we might not even realize that we're doing it. So you know, keeping a fitness tracker that is letting you know how many steps you get into the day, or keeping a fitness journal where you're jotting down what did I do today? How often did I sit today becomes really important because, you know, a client sometimes will say to me, Jan, I'm doing all the workouts that you've prescribed, but it's not working. And I say to them, what are you doing in the other 23 hours of the day? You know, and that helps them to go, oh, oh, okay, I understand that. And here's the thing, I don't want to blame women for doing that, because that is dictated by estrogen. When we lose estrogen in our brain, so estrogen affects all different tissues in the body. So when we start to lose estrogen, it affects our brain, specifically the hypothalamus. And the hypothalamus is responsible for how much food you eat, how much energy you expend, and when we take estrogen away through menopause, what the brain does is that hypothalamus can't regulate that anymore. We tend to eat more. We tend to move less. Lesley Logan 18:44  Okay, this is, so it's not a willpower thing. It's like biological and so we have to be conscious about getting up then having that spontaneous movement or tracking things to make sure that whatever, not whatever you were doing before it, but like, just that so you're not doing a 40% drop like you're, Jan Schroeder, PhD. 19:02  Correct. Lesley Logan 19:02  That's so huge, you know.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 19:04  It is. And I find that women all the time, they just go, it's my fault. It is not your fault. It is physiology. It is biological that your brain is putting you into this pattern. And so we just have to be extra aware of what we're doing. Lesley Logan 19:25  Yeah, yeah, intentional. So, okay, so if we are in the perimenopause, so the women who have not had that one year, no cycle, you know? And that's, it's like, it's like a moment that you're menopause, it's so confusing. One day and that's it. And you can be in perimenopause for years. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 19:48  Yeah, years. You can be in perimenopause for up to a decade. Lesley Logan 19:53  Yeah. Fun. One of my girlfriend says, I'm having hot flashes for her birthday. So enter these inserts that go in your bra. They're from the freezer, and you can stick them in your bra. And she loves them. I was like, I think that would be so hard to put in my bra one day, but I don't have hot flashes. So how should they be thinking about their working out in the perimenopause years? Jan Schroeder, PhD. 20:17  Okay, so a big thing with this working out is a lot of us who are going through menopause right now, we grew up in the 70s and the 80s, and cardio was king. You did high intensity cardio. You did tons of cardio. Lesley Logan 20:34  I did step classes as a teenager. I was, my mom, I would have step class, Jazzercise. Hello. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 20:41  Exactly. So cardio is, I should say cardio is queen, type of thing, but with it, a lot of times during this stage of our life, we need to actually back off on cardio. And the reason for it is because of our cortisol levels. So cortisol, they call it the stress hormone, and it can lead to weight gain. So cortisol is really, really important in the body, and it gets a lot of bad press, but it's a good hormone. It's that fight or flight hormone, and we naturally have a high and a low during our day with cortisol. We are naturally high in the morning, so that promotes alertness, and it helps us wake up and get our day going. And then throughout the day, cortisol is going to drop. So at night, we want our cortisol low so that we can sleep, otherwise it interferes with our melatonin and a bunch of other hormones. So that's what we want to have happen. But during this phase of our life, a lot of us are working, children, aging parents, you know, maybe financial stress, whatever it is, we have a lot of stressors going on. And when we have stress, cortisol comes up high, and it stays high. That's not good for our body. We are in this constant state of what do I do, where do I go? How do I solve this? As opposed to having a natural high and a natural low. So when we hold on to that cortisol, what it does is it increases our food cravings and it increases belly fat. So exercise is a stress. It is a stressor, but it's a oh, we peak and then we come down. So cortisol comes up while we're exercising, comes down. But if we are stressed, hot flashes are killing us, you know, I'm forgetful, I'm not sleeping, our cortisol level is high, and if we do a lot of cardio on top of that, we're going to really spike, which then can lead to additional issues. So a big thing in this phase is, if you are feeling those symptoms and you're feeling episodic stress or chronic stress, then we need to take that cardio down short bursts. So like a hit training, where you have a high and then a rest period, high and a rest period, but that activity is short, as opposed to doing these long duration exercises that maybe you know you've been used to you might do an hour, hour and a half. We need to cut those down to less than 40 minutes, to help control the cortisol levels. And that is probably the biggest thing I can suggest to women, because they say I gotta do cardio to lose weight, but the cardio could be making you gain weight. Lesley Logan 23:40  Oh, thank you for sharing this, because it is something that I've been really trying to help because I was a runner. I was a professional, so I ran all the time. And, you know, definitely in my 20s, like I was my leanest when I was running, I still run. I run very differently now, because it's not actually the same, because I run my own business. So there are stressful moments, and then, you know, I can tell, like, if I've run during certain times of my month, because I still have my cycle, it actually makes me feel worse, because I'm, you know, like I got, like it's a whole thing. So I have, I definitely have been trying to change how I see cardio, but also I've been trying to help people and women say, like, you don't have to do these hour-long like, kill yourself at the gym workouts to get results, you can do a lot in a little bit of time. I love that you're saying this. Like, that's hard for the hour-long session people, but like, we've it's because we pay people by the hour. I'm convinced that's why hour-long classes exist. But you know, like, we can give ourselves permission to stretch. You know, take some time to bring that down, instead of being at the gym doing cardio for an hour or some sort of like jazzercise class for 50 minutes. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 24:51  Yeah. So I own a website where I have in-person clients. I have on-demand classes, and most of my classes are 30 to 40 minutes, and I would get the question, why don't you have hour classes? And I'm like, Well, let's talk about hormones. And once you educate women and you give them the permission that it doesn't need to be an hour, then it just is like, oh. Because of all those stresses, you gotta get the kids to baseball practice or or gymnastics, or whatever it may be. And we're tide crunched, and you're, you may be working as well. Half an hour. Awesome. Beautiful. You know? Yeah, and the other important one on especially cardio and resistance training is the timing of them becomes important as well, that ideally, during this time period, we would love to see you working out in the morning, and that's challenging. I get it because I'm teaching at the university in the morning, but when we work out at night, our cortisol levels are going to spike because the exercise this is exact opposite of what we want to have happen, because we want the cortisol levels to drop so that we can have restful sleep. And that's a challenge. Lesley Logan 26:14  It is a challenge. My husband's going to listen to this. We're going to talk about it, and we work out from 6pm to like five and sometimes 4:30 and I am like, I wish you were a morning workout (inaudible). So just see, hear this babe. He wouldn't, when I say morning, my morning is like 6am but I would love 10. Okay, so we talked about the workouts for before peri, then peri, and once we're there, we obviously worry about our heart, but like, what are some working outs that? Is the workout still 40 minutes or? Jan Schroeder, PhD. 26:51  Yeah, because as we grow older, both men and women, our cortisol levels tend to rise. It's just natural. It's not something you can stop. So ideally, yeah, we still want to keep those workouts to 40 minutes or less, but now, if you're not stressed and you don't have any of the you're sleeping like a baby, you can go and do your two-hour workout. That's fine. If you start to see changes in your body or that's not working for you anymore, then you need to modify. So I don't want to discourage anyone from working those longer endurance sessions, but if you're not seeing what you expect to see, then we can modify and maybe take it down. Lesley Logan 27:38  Yeah, that's cool. So often people will then blame the food or the other things. And we're not often looking at the thing if they were doing the gym, that could actually be causing not the results we're looking for. Yeah.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 27:51  Yeah, as we say in menopause, and I use that as, from peri to post, we have to focus on three things, the exercise, the nutritional environment. What are we doing? We might not be able to do the same thing that we did when we were in our 20s. And then our hormonal environment. Those three work together to protect the heart. They work together for symptom management, and they work together for our bones. So if you just do one, if you only do exercise, it's not going to work. If you only watch what you eat, it's not going to work. If you ignore your hormonal environment, it's not going to work.Lesley Logan 28:31  Good luck. We had on a female telemedicine, and I was like, you know, I've had years of low testosterone, and everyone is just like, you need to lift heavy weights. And I'm like, I do. I lift as heavy as I could hold on to in this moment, I am aware I bought it. I'm not the girl who doesn't pick up the big weight like I am bought in. It is not going up. And so I finally had someone listen to me, and holy freaking moly, guys, find someone. I am loving life. This is amazing. Just a little bit of, a little bit, I'm like, I actually, like, I have, I have awareness. And my point is, like, we don't have to suffer with the hormones because we're changing. There are ways of helping your hormonal environment. And one way I heard about hormone therapy, that was a really great way of thinking about it is, it's so you don't feel like you dropped off a cliff. Yep, you're not replacing what you're losing. It's making it so that it's not, it's a slower, it's a slow downhill. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 29:31  Yeah, exactly, yeah. And I am all for bio-identical hormones. They make a big difference. Now some women cannot take them. I took them for probably four or five years. I was diagnosed with breast cancer, so I had to come off everything except testosterone. I was allowed to stay on testosterone, and I agree with you, it is, it makes a world of difference, the brain fog lifts, the belly fat decreases, sexual desire goes up, there's all these benefits. Your bone density can even improve, but it's definitely a personal decision that that female has to talk with about, you know, with their clinician. But I mean, science has come a long way. It's not like it was back when our moms were going through menopause, and they were taking hormone replacement therapy that might not have been the best for them. Lesley Logan 30:28  I know. Have you? Have you read the book Eve? Jan Schroeder, PhD. 30:31  No. Lesley Logan 30:31  Okay, all right, I just keep asking any amazing woman if they have because maybe they know her. It's me trying to get Cat Bohannon on this show. So, she talked about in her book, you would nerd out about it, by the way, it's about the evolution of female mammalian bodies, and each chapter is a different Eve on different body parts, and one of them's perception. It's a very cool chapter about how we can hear better than men and all these things. But it's true, the dosing on medicines are not usually tested on women ever, and so Ambien is like, the reason why women are, like, wandering around. (inaudible) So it is true, like we are very lucky to be in today's world of, like, what they are doing, and it's only going to get better. But I think what's really cool, and why I wanted to have someone like you on the show is that women are actually talking about perimenopause and menopause now, and we're talking about it in a way so that everyone around us can understand it. Because it's not just for us ladies to understand who are listening, but also the people in your lives, men and women and children, because you are going to be different. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 31:35  Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Lesley Logan 31:38  And so it's important for them to, they, I feel like the more educated everyone is on the topic, the better circumstances and environments we can put into place for ourselves. You know? Jan Schroeder, PhD. 31:49  Yeah, I 100% agree, because we need the support of those around us. And I get where it's hard for a male to understand what you're going through, but we need to be able to help them understand, so that they can be supportive. Lesley Logan 32:05  Yeah, yeah. And I think not just in perimenopause, but that's kind of like all things like, the more that everyone is on understanding what your goals are, the easier it is for you to get where those are. You're so cool. Okay, so what are you most excited about right now, Jan? Jan Schroeder, PhD. 32:19  I'm really, again, a nerd out here, I am so excited about all the new research that's coming through, because, as you said, medications are tested on men. Well, exercise programs are tested on men in research, and now we are finally getting the research on women in perimenopause, on women in menopause with exercise programs in the different formats. And I am just, as opposed to just walking programs. And so, you know, heavy lifting, which we know is, I mean, that is just key to, one, esthetically look good. Two, to be able to perform all your activities of daily living, and it's the thing that's going to protect your bones. So we are now getting that research, and that, to me, is just like, oh, thank God, you know, because I've lectured for years and presented around the world on this type of things, and when it comes to the exercise programs, it's like, well, this is what was done with men. Well, this is done with college-age women, because they're the easiest people to get as subjects. And now we can actually say, okay, you know what those high intensity, long duration cardio sessions not working. We can say that now and that, I just love that, because it gives us a place to go. Lesley Logan 33:45  Yeah, yeah. It's not just, like, a feeling or like, oh, I've noticed in my own experiences, like, actually, there's research. And now it's not just, like, in this one example. I'm excited about that too, because it's yeah, it's, you know, every workout program I've ever done, I'm like, how, who is this is for? Like, how do we how are we doing that? And then you're like, okay, now I gotta find the female trainer over 40, and I'm gonna do her workout, which is great for her. But like, how do we know, you know what, it's, I want more information. We can have that we can arm people with information, and they can make the best decision for what their life is and what's wrong with them. And I think that we're not guessing, and that's really cool. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 34:20  Yeah, because with menopause in general, you know every client is unique of what their past experiences are, in activity, in their nutritional behavior. Every woman is unique when they go through menopause, some glide through with like they're just sailing through. Others are having some pretty severe symptoms. And so the exercise design can't be the same. You have to look at what is going on, you know, if I'm really stressed, then maybe I should be doing some more mind-body type activities to bring my stress level down. If I'm sailing through I can keep doing what I've been doing for years until something changes.Lesley Logan 35:03  Yeah, yeah. I think it's, I just love that so much. I really, really do, and this is really exciting. I will have to keep talking with you as more research comes out, as you're willing to share. But it's been great. We're gonna take a brief break, and then we're gonna find out where people can find you, follow you, work with you. All right, Jan, where do you hang out? Where can people stalk you? Because I have a feeling we've got some ladies who are like, I want to work out with this lady. She gets me. Jan Schroeder, PhD. 35:29  Well, I am in California. I'm in Southern California, and I'm in the Huntington Beach area, but I do have a website where it is education in this area, as well as on-demand workouts that can be put together. So that's at garagegirlsfit.com. I'm not a big social media person. It drives me. I just think it's a time waste, and I'm like, I'm too busy. I got other things I got to do, so I'm not really on social media that much. Just for my mom and dad to see their grandson.Lesley Logan 36:04  So many people, so jealous of you, including me, like I said before we hit record, like, amazing that you can if it's proof that you can do what you love, and you can do it without having to be on social. So I love that. You've given us so much already, but before I let you go for my perfectionist overachievers, my hold on, I love you so much, but what do I do right now? The bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted steps people can take to be it till they see it. What do you have for us? Jan Schroeder, PhD. 36:28  I think one of the things is, is you need to give yourself permission to back down, to, you know, when we're thinking about our workouts, it doesn't need to be here. We can be here and actually get greater benefits, but you gotta give yourself permission that that's okay, and you need to possibly try new things in exercise. So maybe you were a runner, but that's too intense right now, so maybe you back it down to walking with a weight vest. Those sorts of things. We don't always have to be at our highest level to be at our best self. So a lot of times we need to drop things down. And believe me, I am type A, all the way. Lesley Logan 37:13  I have a fitness instructor who isn't.Jan Schroeder, PhD. 37:16  Exactly and even you know, I have to remind myself, I need to back down because of what I'm feeling, and we have to be in tune with what we're feeling and be honest that I don't like to say when I'm stressed, but I occasionally, or either myself or my husband, go, Jan, you gotta bring it down. And that's when I go, okay, I need to drop down my workouts, and it's okay. And what I find is that I actually feel better at that particular moment. We just have to give ourselves permission to say, I don't have to be high-intensity, excelling at everything all the time.Lesley Logan 37:58  I really love what you said. You guys have to rewind. It has to be a quote. It needs to be knitted on a, stitched on a pillow. My knitters, you gotta put this in. I don't have to be up here to be my best self, whatever you sound like. That is, oh, I'm gonna repeat that to myself every day until this comes out so I can hear it again. Beautiful and brilliant. And thank you for the permission, and thank you for the education. And I hope our paths cross so soon, because I would just love to meet you. You're so great, Jan. Everyone, how are you going to use the tips in your life? Do yourself a favor and send it to every female because no matter what stage in life, Jan gave her amazing education. The more we're armed with information, ladies, the better decision we can make about ourselves and our lives, and we get to make them for ourselves. And I think that is so cool. We don't have to do what our friends are doing because it works for them. We can actually go, this is what works for me, and I just love this so much. So Jan, thank you so much and everyone until next time, Be It Till You See It.Lesley Logan 38:51  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

The importance of not coaching to the last point, but to be able to manage your emotions and look forward. The importance of honesty and not using “feelings” when describing selection decisions And how he uses Mindset Monday to reset and prepare for the week ahead.

This week's episode of Scrambling with Dylan Otto features professional golfer Hunter Epson. Golf was always something Hunter did growing up, but he was really invested in soccer and ice hockey as well. Once he started to realize that he could go practice on his own and create his own success, he gave golf all of his attention. He started playing in a lot of local junior events in the Long Beach area like Toyota Tour cups, SCGA events, then a few AJGAs. He started his college career at Pepperdine University where he was making the lineup, but felt he needed a school that better fit him as a player so he went in the transfer portal. A couple months later he found himself coming back to where he was born and raised... Long Beach State University. He was a main contributor to the team over his years there and had quite a resume there. Hunter is currently a couple years into playing professional golf and has played on mini tours, PGA Tour Canada, and most recently gaining full status on the Sunshine Tour. He's looking to get the season underway in South Africa and potentially get into some big events. Enjoy the show!

Dr. Laurene Duke has been happily practicing dentistry for over 30 years. She was first introduced to dentistry as a 5-year-old patient in Dr. Beckman's practice, with a full garden in the backyard visible from every operatory. While attending Long Beach State University, Dr. Beckman introduced her to his daughter who was attending UCLA dental school. This was the first time Dr. Duke learned that women can really be doctors! During her dental school interviews Dr. Duke was told by the USC interviewer that she shouldn't attend dental school, that she would be taking the place of a man and she'd practice for a  couple years before having babies and staying home. This was 1979; USC was the first acceptance letter she received and the first one she, very nervously, declined. After graduating UCLA dental school in 1984 she practiced in different clinics and practices, learning the type o dentistry she didn't want to perform and honing her skills to practice dentistry how she wanted. All through school and the beginning of her career she kept in close contact with Dr. Beckman and started working as his associate in the years after graduating. While in school she married an engineer, Scott, and they became parents in 1985 followed by a second in 1987. In 1989, while very pregnant with her third child, Dr. Beckman casually asked her if she wanted to buy his practice. It was probably the easiest practice sale in history. Dr. Beckman stayed on for a few years, as her associate, seeing patients so Dr. Duke could be a mom to three small children and see patients 1-2 days a week. One of the best things Dr. Beckman told her was to “work hard and enjoy what you do, but it is important to make time for family and life.” She has taken that through her entire career, always sure to make time to be a mom and LIVE. She has always taken time off for school and sport events with her children and family vacations, now averaging about 6-12 weeks a year out of the office. In 1994 the opportunity came for Dr. Duke to purchase the building, which she did and admits it was one of the best professional decisions she's ever made. In 1999 she navigated her way through a terrible embezzlement and learned more about being a business owner. Dental school introduces students how to be clinicians, but nothing about how to actually practice and own a business. In 2017 Dr. Duke was diagnosed with breast cancer. There was very little knowledge and resources to find out how to practice post-surgeries and during treatment. There was no timeline for coming back following a bilateral mastectomy. Dr. Duke and her small team figured out how best to do it for her practice and for her sanity. She learned more about how to help herself heal and how best to keep herself healthier, reading every journal and article she could find. She used HBOT and THOR laser religiously following her mastectomy which helped her heal quickly and well. Learning to re-use muscles, following both the mastectomy and then again after her final reconstruction surgery, was difficult and sometimes surprising when the simple act of using an instrument for a routine filling became more difficult. It was a journey that helped her become a healthier person and more understanding, educated doctor. In her free time Dr. Duke enjoys gardening, hiking, camping, and spending time with her family- especially now that there are grandchildren.

Having small amounts of some heavy metals, such as iron and zinc, is essential for our health. However, having large amounts of heavy metals can be toxic to the body as well as our environment. We are bombarded by different types of toxins, each and every day. Toxins saturate our water supply and can be found in our homes and workplaces. This has become an unfortunate reality of modern life. So, how do we get rid of them? In today's episode, Doctor Christine Schaffner talks with Michael Fessler about detoxing our bodies since our home and/or work environments are full of toxic materials. Michael shares about how to get to the root of our health issues and make detoxing part of our everyday life. Michael has an extensive background in science and engineering with a focus on creating healthy manufacturing and work areas. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Economics from Long Beach State University. Concern with the environmental impact of toxic materials in the workplace led him to start a contracting business that specialized in detoxifying both commercial and residential properties. His firm also handled remodeling projects for people with chemical sensitivities. Following a move to the Pacific Northwest, his background has proven invaluable in developing safe manufacturing processes and pure ingredient formulas for Herbalix Restoratives body, hair, and skincare products.
