Holding Hidden Grief? Release with breathwork — with Tabatha DeBruyn
Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or finding it hard to process a loss? Grief isn't just about losing a loved one; it's the natural response to any loss, whether it’s a relationship, a job, or your former identity. But what if the key to unlocking and moving through that stored pain was as simple as your breath? In this eye-opening episode, we welcome Tabatha DeBruyn, a certified Transformational Breath Master and an expert in the world of 9D Somatic Breathwork. Tabatha shares her deeply personal journey through profound loss and explains the neurobiology of how trauma gets trapped in the body's tissues (like the hips and chest), making us feel perpetually anxious or 'on edge.' She dives into the incredible power of the Vagus nerve and how simple, conscious breathing techniques—like the "physiological sigh"—can instantly reset your nervous system, allowing you to bypass the conscious mind and access the deep, subconscious layers where true emotional healing occurs. Tabatha offers a revolutionary perspective on grief, reminding us that there is no timeline or 'right way' to mourn, only a path to release. Key Takeaways You Don't Want to Miss: * The difference between meditation and conscious, active breathwork for transformation. * How the cutting-edge 9D multi-sensory experience accelerates healing. * The exact places in your body where old emotions are physically stored. * The one simple breath you can use right now to calm panic and anxiety. * Why the "dis-ease" in your body is often unprocessed grief and how breathwork can help prevent future illness.

The Truth About PCOS, Insulin, and Inositol — with RD Julie Duffy Dillon
In this essential episode, we sit down with Registered Dietitian and PCOS expert Julie Duffy Dillon, host of the "Find Your Food Voice" podcast, to debunk the pervasive myth that weight loss is the cure for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Julie brings a compassionate, Health At Every Size (HAES) perspective, explaining how the cycle of dieting and restriction actually makes long-term insulin resistance and inflammation worse for people with PCOS. We discuss how to find food peace, stop the exhausting "food noise," and shift your focus from dieting to true body nourishment. Key Takeaways You Can't Miss: The Diet Trap: Restriction ultimately drives higher insulin and inflammation, worsening PCOS symptoms. Julie strongly emphasizes that people with PCOS need to focus on eating regular, adequate meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). The "Golden Ticket" Supplement: Learn about Inositol—a B vitamin that repairs insulin receptors. Julie provides the necessary ratio and the specific twice-daily dosage needed to manage insulin and androgens. Diagnosis & Advocacy: The Rotterdam criteria allows for diagnosis without a blood draw or ultrasound. Julie shares how to talk to your doctor and what symptoms to track. Hormones & Age: We tackle the pill's role in masking symptoms and its long-term impact on insulin. Plus, we discuss what to expect as you navigate PCOS through perimenopause and menopause (hint: your cycles and estrogen may normalize for a brief period!). Self-Care: Prioritize rest! People with PCOS often require more sleep and intentional rest to manage their chronic condition effectively.

Feeling lost, confused, and frustrated by your body in midlife? Host Andrea Van Niekerk sits down with the uniquely qualified Dr. Jenn Huber—a Naturopathic Doctor AND Registered Dietitian—to cut through the noise on menopause nutrition, energy, and body change.

HRT Over 60 - The Truth about Later-Life Hormone Therapy (with Dr. Jordan Emont)
STOP! Have you been told you're "too old" to start or continue Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)? It's time to set the record straight and end the decades of dismissal women face in midlife. In this essential episode, Andrea is joined by the highly respected OBGYN and passionate advocate, Dr. Jordan Emont, to cut through the noise on later-life HRT (for women 60+ and 65+). We dive into the controversial "10-year rule," clarify the critical safety differences between oral and transdermal estrogen, and reveal the compelling data that supports using hormones for longevity and disease prevention, even years after menopause. The Myth: Where the arbitrary "10-year cutoff" for HRT originated and why modern medicine now recognizes it as outdated. Safety Data: The crucial difference between oral vs. transdermal estrogen and clot risk (why patches are the safer choice for late starts). Later-Life Benefits: Why HRT remains one of the best tools for osteoporosis prevention and reducing fracture risk, regardless of your age. Longevity: Data indicating that women who continue HRT beyond 65 have better long-term health outcomes. Testosterone: The benefits of adding testosterone for energy, cognitive function, and muscle mass in later life. The Systemic Problem: Dr. Emont’s story about a pharmacist who gave his patient conflicting, fear-based advice. Final Non-Negotiable Tip: Dr. Emont’s ultimate, safest form of estrogen every woman should consider for long-term vaginal and urinary tract health.
