Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I answer some of the most common questions I get about women's holistic health. I begin by addressing how to navigate feelings of overwhelm when it comes to health and outlining the foundational elements of women's health. I share tips for shifting your mindset and establishing sustainable, long-term habits while navigating conflicting opinions about foods like meat, seed oils, and dairy — and how to trust your intuition. You'll learn how to recognize the signs of hormone imbalances, when birth control may be an issue, and how to stop taking it safely. I cover the difference between normal and common menstrual symptoms, offer natural remedies for menstrual health, and discuss nutrition for fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum. Additionally, I explore a holistic approach to weight loss (including the connections between metabolism, hormones, blood sugar, and gut health) and the importance of reducing toxin exposure. I share my hot take on fasting and detox cleanses and conclude with the most important thing you can do for your health.   Resources shared in this episode: • Women's holistic health course • Monthly holistic health membership • THR® functional lab & health coaching program • The Holistic Remedy® blog • The free wellness toolkit • What's your wellness personality quiz   If you want to connect with me, here's where you can find me: • Connect on Instagram → @theholistic.remedy • Explore my website → The Holistic Remedy® • Apply for my health program → THR® Method   What I cover in this episode: 02:42 – Accepting that summer's over  04:45 – The most common questions I get 06:01 – Where do I even start? 07:29 – The most important thing to prioritize 08:30 – The foundations of women's health (resource) 09:32 – Feeling overwhelmed with health 10:36 – Free wellness resources (resource) 12:04 – Sustainable long-term health 13:36 – Staying motivated around nutrition habits 16:05 – Is meat / seed oil / dairy bad for you? 16:40 – Conflicting opinions amongst practitioners 16:57 – Using your intuition and listening to your body 19:19 – Women aren't getting enough protein 21:17 – When & how to effectively use supplements 23:10 – Hormone imbalance symptoms 25:29 – How to identify hormonal imbalance 26:50 – The problem with birth control 28:53 – How to safely get off birth control (resource) 31:24 – Natural remedies for menstrual health (resource) 33:38 – Abnormal menstrual symptoms 35:05 – Nutrition for TTC, pregnancy, postpartum 36:57 – Holistic weight loss for women 38:19 – Metabolism, hormones, blood sugar, gut health (resource) 42:09 – Reducing exposure to toxins & natural detoxification 44:13 – Hot take on fasting / detox cleanses 45:44 – The most important thing you can do for your health 46:35 – You deserve to be in the driver's seat   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.
