The Protein Obsession

Is our obsession with protein just another health and wellness trend, or is there some validity to this hyper focused movement? In this episode, I break down the importance of protein in a healthy diet as we consider activity level, overall health, and personal goals. I speak to the idea that not all cultures are eating this way… sometimes a little reflection on a wider scope helps us to make decisions that fit into our lifestyles in a more realistic way.

Perimenopause or is it Stress?

Perimenopause is linked to over 100 different symptoms so it’s easy to feel if you have x, y & z & you are over 35, it must be due to perimenopause but this isn’t necessarily the case. in this episode I will breakdown the difference between perimenopause which is age related hormone decline & hormones that are imbalanced/declining due to other factors, specifically stress, not necessarily age.

Living in a Highly Sensitive Body

Do you feel like day to day life is just harder for you than it should be? Or that you have to be so careful with what you put in your body if you do not want to pay for it later. It's almost as if you were to make one wrong move your energy will be zapped for a week and your level of functionality decreases tenfold.  In today's episode, I discuss what it means to be in a highly sensitive body; what it feels like, the causes, and really what it all boils down to.

The Fine Line Between Inspiration and Imitation

The online space is a wonderful resource for inspiration as we all navigate through health obstacles. The tricky part is that not all "healthy" practices necessarily benefit everyone. Your favorite influencer does not know the state of your gut so should you really be taking her favorite probiotic? In this episode I breakdown a few specifics such as probiotics, bone broth, cold plunges and protein intake and explain how knowing the needs of YOUR body is everything as you build out your wellness routine.

Risk Versus Reward: Leaving behind predictablity for life changing experiences.

In this episode I sit down with a dear friend of mine, Megan Jurvis, to talk about how/why her and her family made the decision to leave their mainstream lifestyle and travel the country (and then some) in an RV for 8 years. Megan had a typical upbringing, one that did not necessarily steer her in the direction to do something "different." Motherhood brought a new perspective as she chose to follow an attachment parenting style and homeschool her children. Both decisions would allow for an alternative lifestyle, one that she was being pulled towards.
 
Megan shares how she worked past the fear and was able to make big decisions in order to spend almost a decade experiencing something that does not come with a guidebook.  I hope you find some tidbits of inspiration listening to Megan's story as you work to build a live you love. 
 
Megan is a Freelance Graphic Designer and can be contacted at meganjurvisdesign@gmail.com.  You can check out some of their adventures on instagram @freewheelingfamily
