Have you ever felt overwhelmed and that no matter how hard you try, you just can't shake the feeling of being stressed out? It's possible that you are stuck in a vicious cycle where your body has become accustomed to functioning in a high state of stress. This is because when we experience chronic stress, our bodies produce excess amounts of cortisol, also known as the “stress hormone”. This hormone is responsible for feelings of fatigue and anxiety, which can further compound the feeling of being overwhelmed and unable to find relief. So what can we do to break this cycle?That's exactly what we're going to talk about this week with my guest, best-selling author and functional medicine practitioner Marcelle Pick.Dr Friedemann's Key Takeaways:Intro (00:00)Chased By A Tiger (2:19)Deal With Your Story (5:45)Finding Balance (8:22)We Can Get Better (13:40)Menopause Is A Journey Of Self-Discovery (15:58)More Productive (18:47)Women Multitask (22:15)Where Do I Start (25:56)Meet Marcelle PickMarcelle Pick, OB/GYN, NP, is passionate about transforming the way women experience healthcare through an integrative approach.

Women are resilient creatures, but we're not bulletproof. In fact, certain experiences – like a cancer diagnosis, for example – can leave you completely shattered, and unsure of how to put yourself back together. Any serious illness raises uncomfortable questions about how you'll carry on, and beyond that, how you'll manage to leave a legacy that carries on after you're gone. There's a lot to think about post-diagnosis, but there's also a lot to do in order to keep things on the straight and narrow. We're talking: Finding (and nurturing) the community of supportive women in your life Letting your purpose take you to our passion – and making sure you get to do what you want to do with the time you haveDealing with your inner criticLearning to look after yourself To do all of those things is to create a powerful legacy, almost subconsciously – one that will encourage other women to be the best version of themselves – and Iselyn Hamilton-Austin has got it all covered. As a breast cancer survivor, she is experienced in the art of overcoming, finding another way and moving forward – and in her role as a pediatric nurse, she dedicates her time to sharing her wisdom with incoming generations. She is also the founder and CEO of Duckling to Diva, an organization championing young women's empowerment. In this episode of the She Burns podcast, Iselyn shares her hard-earned insights on everything from mortality motivation to defining your life path and creating positive relationships with others. So what's this episode really about? Finding the resilience to overcome life's biggest challenges The importance of doing the things you want to do before it's too lateThe power in a support network of driven, committed women Why you should invest time in learning good habits from childhood Why you should listen People who can blend unwavering support with total honesty are rare birds, and Iselyn Hamilton-Austin is one of them. As a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, author and breast cancer survivor, she has seen the harsh realities of life and kept her can-do attitude through it all.

It's how you pick your sh*t up off the ground and move forward.” - Hannah Austin “You've got to plant your own shit. You've got to dig your own hole and put your own seed in it – you have to. You can't let things and people stop you. You do have to take a moment, though.” - Iselyn Hamilton-Austin Like what you hear? Please leave me a review - these stars won't burn out!

When you are diagnosed with cancer, it is a time when you have to put yourself first. 2. Many cancer survivors experience survivor's remorse. It is feelings of guilt that occur after surviving a life-threatening, traumatic event when others did not. 3. The time is now to do the things you want to do in life. We don't know how long we have. 4. Make the decision not to be a cancer victim. See yourself as victorious! Each day you wake up and have another shot at life that is a win!

True self-care is about how you respond to how your body is feeling in each moment.   –Andrea Paquette “Maybe I'm not that lovable. Maybe my wants and needs belong on the back burner.” Have you ever felt that way? We're talking with Andrea Paquette, the author of Loveable: How Women Can Heal Their Sensitive Hearts and Live and Love as Their True Selves.  Loveable is a guidebook for women to come into their full self expression and truly love themselves. Are you the fixer? The one that holds everything together, the one who makes sure everybody else is all right? Are you constantly trying to do all the things for your family and your business? What would happen if you pulled back? Andrea and I talk about how receiving is a muscle and if we develop it we can use it in different parts of our life. We talk about dropping the conditioning about how we should be on all the time or do everything right. We can get past false beliefs like: I'm not good enough, I'm not measuring up, Nobody likes me, There's something wrong with me. The masculine way that we have learned how to be doesn't fit with the feminine body, but we can find a different way. We talk about:  How we've learned to function on a superficial level and how we can get past that Inner work being an ongoing process and that we need to release things again and again Finding and healing hidden wounds from childhood, including using tools like meditations and visualizations Learning that the world can go on without you, that you can do less and it will be okay Trusting and following your intuition and what resonates, recognizing the strengths in your feminine body and energy, and asking for help Getting past blocks on understanding what we need and on getting it BIO Andrea Paquette, MSN, APRN, is board certified as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and a Holistic Nurse Practitioner.
