Lindsey and Dan felt sick at how they and their bodies were treated during their struggle with infertility. They felt they were being sold hope that couldn't be promised, by doctors who told them they had no answers. The entire journey didn't sit right with them, so they went looking for other avenues. Along the journey, they discovered an approach to fertility that was natural, cooperative, faithful, and left them feeling peaceful.

We are big fans of NaProTechnology at Woven Well, because this unique approach investigates the root causes of reproductive health concerns like PCOS, PMS, Luteal Phase defect, and endometriosis. For many women, this restorative approach is all they need to finally get some answers and individualized care. But there are some who still have a "missing piece." This was how Dr. Melissa Weidert felt as she served a NaProTechnology OBGYN and surgeon. She loved NaPro, but knew she needed a complementary education to provide to some of her patients who still struggled. Now, she's opened her integrative health clinic and provides holistic reproductive care and fertility treatments to men and women. Utilizing hormonal panels, HTMA, bio resonance testing, mold and parasite investigation, and more, she seeks the root causes of reproductive health concerns and addresses them at their core. She joins us today to talk about this approach and how it serves men and women with reproductive health issues. NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences. GUEST BIO: Dr. Melissa Weidert officially launched her virtual medical practice, Fiat Fertility & Wellness, in the Fall of 2023 after many years in restorative reproductive medicine. She has a strong passion for NaProTECHNOLOGY and trained as a NaPro surgeon. Combining this knowledge with functional medicine and holistic health practices allows her to walk alongside women, men, and couples on their unique health journeys. She lives with her husband and son and is a proud Wisconsinite who enjoys the outdoors, strong coffee, and quality conversations. You can find her soaking in the sun rays, working the soil into a new garden, and taking time to be present with those she loves. If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to give us a 5 star review!

I'm frequently asked how clients can share fertility suggestions with their friends. They want to share the exciting things they're learning through their own fertility education process, but don't want to overstep or say the wrong thing. This is especially true when it comes to IVF alternatives. Many ladies talk to friends who hate the IVF process, and yet their friends aren't sure how to suggest alternatives. This episode is designed for those who want to meet their friends where they are and provide a hopeful, supported alternative to fertility treatments that may not be serving them well. Enjoy these tips that can be applied to all sorts of fertility related conversations among friends! This could apply to in vitro fertilization, birth control, IUD use, recurrent pregnancy loss or miscarriage, and more. NOTE: This episode is appropriate for most audiences, but does discuss the sensitive topic of infertility and loss, including IVF procedures and artificial reproductive technologies.

Did you know that abstinence is a part of fertility awareness methods or natural family planning? Many ask: WHY?! Is this really the BEST way? The ONLY way? Fair questions! This episode starts the conversation about why abstinence is used in fertility awareness based methods (FABM) and natural family planning (NFP) and why it's worth considering for confidence, success, and even your marriage.

"As an author, especially in a topical nonfiction or the crossover in the parable like we do, have to think of your book as your business card. This is what's going to get you credibility. It's gonna get you notice, get you to be able to launch into that career." Bob Burg and Jeff West came together to coauthor a compelling business parable, "Streetwise to Saleswise: Becoming Objection Proof and Beat the Sales Blues." During our conversation, Jeff and Bob share how they incorporate their experiences and expertise into a unique story. They share the story behind their collaboration and their approach to writing a business parable. This episode highlights the importance of finding the right path as an author and how teaming up with the right partner can lead to incredible outcomes. The power of storytelling is undeniable. Personal anecdotes of overcoming challenges, shaping business narratives, and building resilience have the potential to uplift and inspire fellow entrepreneurs. Writing a book is another way to help people understand the impact that comes with embracing setbacks and opportunities for growth. The stories give reminders that setbacks and failures are a part of every entrepreneurial journey. Rather than being roadblocks, Bob and Jeff help others understand that hurdles often are the catalyst to impactful connections. They can spur individuals to take risks they may not have considered otherwise. Personal experiences, such as connecting with influential mentors, illustrate the transformative power of networking and openness.The more that people share their inspiring stories, the more others will understand the significance of collaboration, resilience, and taking calculated risks. Building connections, both within and outside of your circle, can lead to growth and meaningful opportunities. Your story and message has the power to uplift and empower others, making it a tale worth sharing. Have you ever considered telling your story?

Chronic Endometritis doesn't always have many symptoms, yet it can affect your cycle health and contribute to infertility and pregnancy loss. What is this silent condition and how can you know if it's affecting you? This episode explores what endometritis is, how to diagnose and treat it, while also explaining its differences from acute endometritis (and endometriosis, which is a separate condition). If you're experiencing unexplained infertility or recurrent pregnancy loss (miscarriage), you may want to explore the possibility of chronic endometritis. Charting your cycles with the Creighton Model System may help you to spot this possibility earlier, and work with a NaProTechnology provider in order to heal.

In the corporate world, men often earn significantly more than women in comparable roles. The gender gap is even wider in startups. The average investment in women-led companies is $935,000 versus $2.1M for businesses founded by men. And it isn't because men are more qualified or more intelligent. It's because they tend to be more confident. So, what can women do to own our worth? How do we recognize and articulate the value we offer with confidence to earn what we deserve? Bryony Cooper serves as Managing Partner at Warsaw-based VC fund Arkley Brinc, a firm that invests in early-stage startups throughout Europe. An international entrepreneur-turned-VC, Bryony founded three tech companies before the age of 30, and she is a passionate advocate for gender equality and diversity in tech. On this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, Bryony joins Anjel to share her journey from creative writing and music to tech startups, offering advice on channeling your creativity into cashflow. Bryony discusses her approach to mentoring female founders, walking us through the top three tips she offers mentees to overrule the voice that says you're not good enough and grow your confidence. Listen in for Bryony's insight on what makes a company investible and learn how to pitch yourself and your ideas with conviction, negotiating for the financial support you deserve.

A poorly organized site can lead to visitor confusion, frustration, and abandonment. If you want to educate, engage, and turn your visitors into donors, this isn't what you're looking for. In this episode, Spencer shows you how to reorganize your site to encourage patients to browse other pages.

Since COVID began and people have been isolated and unable to connect with friends and family, opioid overdose deaths have doubled. Our country is in crisis and Coming Clean hopes to create awareness and impact solutions to change the trajectory of this epidemic. Our loved ones' lives depend on it!"This documentary by award-winning filmmaker Ondi Timoner brings together artists, political leaders, the lead prosecutor against big pharma, recovering addicts, and those working on the frontlines to fight this - the deadliest drug epidemic in history. We want to ground the opioid epidemic in stories that show us just how connected we are, and what's at stake when we turn away from one another. Most importantly, we wanted to connect the dots on how we got here, and how we can find our way out of this crisis."About Ondi Timoner:Ondi Timoner is known to be one of the greatest talents in non-fiction filmmaking. She often takes on the stories of visionaries fighting against all odds with a gripping and unique narrative style. Ondi has the rare distinction of winning the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival twice - for her documentary, DIG! (2004) and WE LIVE IN PUBLIC (2009). Both films were acquired by MoMA, NY for its permanent collection. Other award-winning features include: THE NATURE OF THE BEAST (1994), JOIN US (2007), COOL IT (2010), BRAND: A SECOND COMING (2015) and COMING CLEAN (2020). In 2017, Ondi created and produced the critically-acclaimed 10-hour nonfiction television series JUNGLETOWN about the building of “the world's most sustainable town” for Viceland. Ondi wrote, directed, produced and edited the scripted film, MAPPLETHORPE, starring Matt Smith. After premiering at Tribeca, the film was released theatrically in 2019 after winning eight Audience Awards and Best Narrative Feature at several festivals. The MAPPLETHORPE Director's Cut will be released in the Spring of 2021. Ondi has also produced and directed music videos for The Dandy Warhols, The Vines, Paul Westerberg, Lucinda Williams, Vanessa Carlton, The Jonas Brothers, and Run DMC, among others. Ondi was nominated for a Grammy for Best Long Form Music Video for an EPK she directed about the band Fastball in 1999.

In 2014, she gave a popular TEDxKC talk entitled “When Genius and Insanity Hold Hands” explaining why she tells the stories of “impossible visionaries.” Ondi is currently helming a new film called ALONE, TOGETHER (w.t.) which looks through the eyes of scientists and artists at how technology is transforming our ways of connecting and loving, given the societal trend towards increasing physical isolation, accelerated by the onset of the COVID-19 global pandemic.

We won't make you admit it, but we know we left you wanting more after last week's episode that enlightened you to EOS. Well, you lucky listeners, we've got you covered, smothered and topped (arguably also the best way to order your Waffle House hashbrowns in proper WH-approved lingo) with this week's special guest Kim Coots, a bona fide and certified leadership and success coach and EOS expert. Kim's credentials are certainly rock solid and fascinating, as you'll learn through her sitdown with our boys Sid and Keith. She created a start-up company in 1993 that became the 26th fastest growing company in the INC. 500 within five years, only to have to sell it out soon thereafter because of the lack of a firm business foundation. From there, she went to work for a $6 billion company to spearhead the launch of their international division and ended up staying for 10 years. She then progressed forward to becoming an "integrator" at a $5 million dollar company going through some truly terrible times - and that's where her life was changed by those three little letters you've come to know and need in your own business lives: EOS. Kim was in at the ground floor for the development of EOS, and now works full-time helping small businesses integrate and implement the procedures and protocols to make them profitable and prosperous. So, in short, we've got the content area expert on EOS that's been there since the beginning to answer our questions and help guide us all down the proper path. And you get to listen to this for free? Win, win. (But, if you wanted to do something nice to thank us, see the above parenthetical for our Waffle House order.) We considered giving you some of the definitions and high points with Kim's talk, but ... again #TeamNoSpoilers ... you genuinely should listen to this week's episode and get it all straight from our superb source. This episode is chock-full of great advice, anecdotes, acumen that will allow you to accelerate your business affairs.

Whats up Happier Dentist family, today, I think its important to touch on the ever so important topic of our emotional, social and psychological wellbeing - which in a nutshell is our mental health. It's been a "hot topic" as of late, but doesn't mean this is a new thing for dentists to experience. We've all heard the statistic about dentists having a high rate of suicide. Today we talk with a licensed therapist who deals with mental health scenarios in the work place. Addressing the stigma of talking about it in our communities can be an important step before seeking the appropriate person that will really help us navigate through a potentially difficult time. For the Asian doctors out there like me, we add another complex element of factors that can drastically affect our mental health, which is racism. That definitely deserves a listen as it seems to be a very relevant issue for many of us and can affect our day-to-day. Our mental health affects us as a leader in the office or as an employee and can bleed into other areas of our lives. We can and should include more discussions in the office surrounding mental health and be more proactive to remind our team that resources and support exist. Navigating COVID in the dental environment in 2021 and beyond can be more manageable simply by staying a bit more connected to the pulse of your team members and Jeanie talks about how building rapport with your team can help them feel more comfortable to talk with you about certain things, strengthening the bond you have with them. Disclaimer - we are talking about mental health, including the reference to suicide, anxiety and depression.
