In this episode, I dive into my personal experiences and strategies for success, emphasizing the importance of self-reflection, vulnerability, community, financial literacy, and intentional financial management. I also discussed the need for women to redefine success, happiness, and wealth according to their own values and needs, and encouraged them to seek guidance from mentors and coaches to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.

15 Aug 2022You Are Not Meant To Feel Exhausted & Unwell00:41:12

In this episode, I want to remind you that you are not meant to feel exhausted, unwell, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, with no energy or libido. None of this is normal,  yet so many of us accept that it is.

This is common, but it is NOT normal.

Maybe you have noticed changes with your cycle, body, mood, skin, sleep, cravings,  etc.  and  have brushed them  aside. Ladies, it’s time we stop ignoring these signs.

In this episode, I focus on a topic that has been coming up a lot in my  DM’s and emails – the feeling of being hit by an energetic bus. There has been a lot of tension,  emotion, and excitement happening this September and everyone is feeling it. So often we can get caught up in the idea of a master plan in order to be successful, and I am here to talk to you about the “yes… and”, because energy plays a big role in success as well!

09 Nov 2020Seven Imbalances in a Woman’s Body: Progesterone and Ovulation with Jenn Pike01:11:09

This week, we are diving into the third part of the series about the Seven Most Common Imbalances in a Woman's Body, and today’s topic is all about Progesterone and Ovulation.

 

Not so long ago women’s period was recognized as the fifth vital sign, and doctors were instructed to ask girls and women about their periods as an indicator of their overall health. The truth is that even with these medical advances, women still don’t receive proper instruction about their bodies. If we were empowered as women we wouldn't be suffering so much, women are struggling, and this is the whole reason I created an entire program, masterclasses, and series to educate women about what has been happening to their bodies since the beginning of time.

 

Here are the main topics of this third piece of a series meant for every woman:

  • The functions of progesterone.
  • Are you making enough progesterone?
  • The luteal phase is the only time when we make progesterone.
  • What happens when you have PCOS?
  • The truth about what happens to your body when you are on birth control and what can happen when you get off the pill.
  • Signs and symptoms of progesterone deficiency.
  • Understanding your cervical mucus.
  • Testing for progesterone deficiency.
  • How to detect ovulation.
  • When to think about starting bioidentical hormone therapy.
  • How can you make more progesterone?
  • Your period is a beautiful gift!
  • How can you support a healthy level of progesterone?
  • Baseline supplements.
  • Reduce your stress! Repeat the things that make you feel good.
  • You know it because you feel it!

 

Hoping this episode helps you to approach the healing of your hormones with more compassion and more understanding. Keep showing up for yourself! Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

I wanted to share my recipe for the amazing Warm Mug of Yum that I am drinking while recording this episode. Here are the ingredients:

 

 

Blend and enjoy!

 

I also wanted to share what we used as Halloween makeup remover with my children. I used an organic cotton pad with some Soothe from Skin Essence Organics and I also put some on their faces, and I very gently got it all off! Soothe was my choice since its ingredients help ease irritated skin and I have to confess it worked beautifully!

Quotes -

  • “...what's called the nocebo effect versus placebo where the negativity of what you say can actually change a diagnosis versus the positivity, and just having that open up my brain…”
  • “I'm a robotic surgeon, too. I use the robot for surgery, but then if a woman's having heavy periods, sometimes I'll just recommend yarrow flower instead of birth control pills.”
  • “they're telling me I can't have hormones and I'm just supposed to be miserable for the last five years of my life.”
  • “fatigue, if you're taking a nap at four or five in the afternoon that's probably not normal.”
  • “Testosterone does stimulate hair follicles so it will help with hair growth, but too much can overstimulate it and that is when you get hair on your stomach or your chin”
  • “The reason I think we see a lot of thyroid issues is because the more estrogen that's in the body, the less active your thyroid is going to be. And we have that for one, huge reason: diet. Fat cells make estrogen. So the fatter you are the more fat cells you have, the more your estrogen goes up and your thyroid function goes down.”
  • “ don't put all the pressure also on that practitioner to know everything for you.”
16 Mar 2020Healing Hashimoto’s: My Sister’s Journey with Wendy Lyn00:56:40

This episode is a special one since my sister Wendy is my guest! She went through the discovery that she had Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, which is the autoimmune form of having an underactive thyroid condition. Wendy was living her life as a mother, a wife, and a working woman. She thought it was normal not to have the energy that she once had, to have headaches, to feel overwhelmed, to have some digestive issues, and urinary tract infections. But it was not, normal shouldn't feel this way!

 

In this episode, Wendy shares her story, because this is the way we learn, hearing the stories of other women and their struggles, realizing we are not alone. Wendy is currently in remission for Hashimoto’s even when she was told by her doctors and endocrinologist that this was just not possible; she achieved this by prioritizing her body and health.

 

These are the main topics of an amazing conversation:

  • Wendy talks about the symptoms she felt before being diagnosed.
  • The effects of antibiotics on the gut and digestive system.
  • Wendy started taking thyroid medication but her symptoms were still there.
  • Wendy talks about how she contracted repetitive urinary tract infections and how she struggled with the side effects of antibiotics.
  • Not sleeping well is a sign that we shouldn’t miss.
  • Wendy talks about the moment when she realized she needed a holistic approach to her health.
  • Chronic stress causes severe consequences to your body.
  • Wendy was finally diagnosed with Hashimoto’s and felt the relief of knowing what was going on with herself.
  • The biggest changes in Wendy’s lifestyle: Adrenal supplements (vitamin D, Probiotics), a dairy and gluten-free diet, no caffeine, no alcohol.
  • Wendy started a blog where she shares all her recipes as well as tools and hacks to win the battle against Hashimoto’s.
  • How to develop a relationship with your practitioner.
  • Wendy gives her advice to all women feeling as she did.

 

I hope this episode helps you achieve the realization that investing in your health is the best decision you can make, and that healing your body must be your priority, keep seeking for the answers you are looking for! Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

08 Mar 2021Achieving Empowerment by Unsubscribing From Diet Culture with Stephanie Dodier01:09:07

I had so many “aha” moments during this conversation. You could say that Stephanie Dodier helps women break away from diet culture. But that doesn’t do her work justice. She promotes counterculture principles that permanently change how women relate to their bodies, including how to de-link self-love from body love and how to disrupt harmful generational knowledge transfer. She is empowering women to change the world from the inside out.

Stephanie is a Clinical Nutritionist who created the Going Beyond the Food Method, a cornerstone of her Conquer and Thrive program. She uses her own experience with food and her body to sustain her investment in sharing how she approaches personal health.

 

Here are the main topics of this amazing conversation:

  • Why the podcast has a new name
  • Introducing Stephanie Dodier and how she inspires
  • What “being healthy” has come to mean
  • 14:00 Why Stephanie cares so much about the culture associated with being healthy
  • 15:00 Stephanie’s experience accepting and loving her body is ... other people
  • Many sectors profit off of women feeling like they aren’t good enough
  • Stephanie’s journey with food and her body
  • Women who ask for help with weight gain are ostracized by society because they don’t fit the typical need profile
  • About diet culture and societally imposed body ideals for women
  • There is diversity in women’s body size going back millennia- as far as we can trace back
  • How and why the medical industry participates in diet culture
  • Self-love versus body neutrality
  • The effect of living in a patriarchal society on “programming” girls’ relationships with their body
  • Generational norms contribute to the persistence of diet culture
  • Jenn’s early experiences with diet culture
  • How to begin pushing back against diet culture
  • 43:00 intuition
  • 43:20 how to deal with sabotage- how to re-think sabotage
  • Redefining health to be more than just a physical body
  • Linking “optimum health” to social justice
  • Moving away from the idea that everyone is meant to prioritize being perfectly healthy
  • Diet culture affects girls’ behavior as early as elementary school
  • How the pandemic is affecting body relationships
  • We should be teaching in schools how to process emotion, which would affect our relationship with food
  • How Jenn and others feel when processing all of the topics covered in this episode
  • The Conquer and Thrive program and Stephanie’s podcast 

Hoping this episode supports you on the path of knowing, accepting, and loving who you truly are. Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

I ended this episode thinking about my daughter, so I want to share with you some products that I think will help us reinforce our beliefs with our actions and teach our daughters to take care of themselves outside of the diet culture we discuss in this episode. I’ve tried these as a mom- I hope they work for you!

  • We love smoothies because they’re quick and easy. I started adding in Sunwarrior’s Beauty Greens Collagen Booster in pina colada flavor. She likes that it tastes healthy, I like that it’s got probiotics and is plant-based with greens in it.
  • I am encouraging my daughter to think about her skin as a whole. Skin Essence is Canadian-founded, organic, non-GMO, not animal-tested- this company is one that we love and have around the house, which is why my daughter’s been giving them a try (and my husband and son too!). You can even talk to the company to get advice on which products may be right to try first.
  • I’ve mentioned before a plant-based iron organic herb tonic that my daughter has been using. It’s been helping her feel a lot better, especially around her periods- it’s common for young girls first getting their period to be anemic. Garden of Life’s mykind Organics liquid iron supplement is junk-free and helps her body uptake and absorb iron. This could help you moms too! And the flavor is fantastic- her favorite is cranberry lime.
  • Another thing that I want to help my daughter with is reducing the problems that can be associated with having her period. Really Neutral Tonics from Saint Francis Herb Farm can help. I most love their menstrual tonic and PMS support, which you don’t have to use together.

I hope some of these tips can help all your mamas out there, and if you don’t have a daughter, then I hope some of these tips and tricks can help you.

05 Jun 2023Your Wise Adrenals and What They Tell You with Dr. Laura Anderson01:18:08

Women’s health struggles are consistently dismissed. And while we dedicate all of our energy to every role we play and to those outside of ourselves, or in service of our big, audacious goals - our health is often moved to the bottom of the list.

Today’s episode with Dr. Laura Anderson is from our 2023 summit. Join Dr. Laura Anderson ND in this jammed pack episode learning about aspects to healing and supporting your adrenals with therapies beyond just supplements!

  • The importance of sleep, rest, nutrients to water, joy/hobbies, nature, moving your body & breath work, meditation/journaling, and nutrition

  • The adrenal/thyroid connection

  • The importance of caring for your nervous system and stress response

  • How simple lifestyle shifts can have a huge impact on your adrenal health

  • Easy action steps for each of these to take away and implement immediately

  • “My adrenals didn't love it anymore. I never felt like I fully recovered from the run. So as much as my mind loved hitting the road, I never even ran with music or podcasts. I just hit the ground.”
  • “I have a deep understanding of how. Important muscle is as an organ of longevity and a hormonal endocrine functioning organ, and the role it plays for our bone health, our heart health, our brain health, and our hormonal health as women.”
  • “The big rocks of your success, especially if you were trying to build muscle, are going to be stress management, your downtime, your nutrition, and personal growth.”
  • “If you have specific goals that match the movement, then match your effort with the specificity of the bowl.”
  • “You're going to have to be in a slight caloric surplus in order to build muscle”

This episode is another Simplicity Bite reminding you that you don’t need to make life difficult by always prioritizing your work ahead of other things in your life. I have been going through a change in mindset over the past number of years where I know to make time for myself and my family.

Life is already complex enough, why make things difficult for you in your business and will spill over in your personal life.

  • My week
  • Where does being overwhelmed come from?
  • What I realized while taking a walk every day
  • Being too hard on yourself
  • Behind the scenes
  • We continue to evolve and grow
  • There is no due date

27 May 2024The Perimenopause Project00:49:44

In this episode, I am sharing exciting announcements and a lot of changes that have been going on behind the scenes. I am here to be part of a revolution that has to happen in women's health. One where we are participants in our bodies instead of always being bystanders.

That's why I've created what I have here. So change doesn't have to feel overwhelming, scary or awful. When you know what to expect and you understand how to manage changes happening, you're going to be relieved and happy to realize that your body can get better over time.

Your body can get stronger over time.

Your body can get fitter.

Your body can get leaner.

You can get more vital and more vibrant over time.

And I promise you that that's possible. I see it happen in my own body.

I see it happen in all of the women that we work with.

You can tell the difference of someone who is surviving and getting through their day or their life and someone who is thriving.

This is what I am bringing to life in my brand new course, which is called The Perimenopause project.

24 Jun 2021Respecting our individual capacity00:11:41

Welcome back for another bite of Simplicity. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project, and the creator of the women's revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.

In this simplicity bite, we will be opening up about our individual capacity and how to recognize when we are beyond capacity. And in order to feel resilient or to have true resiliency, you have to first understand what your individual capacity is. 

I believe it is important for each of us to reiterate to ourselves and the women in our lives that it is ok to say no, to give yourself that permission, and treat yourself with more love and self-compassion. 

Here are the main topics of this simplicity bite:

  • Beyond capacity
  • Capacity is learned
  • How our cycle can affect our capacity
  • Gut instinct
  • Giving yourself permission to say no

So please do not hesitate to book in a call with one of our team via https://jennpike.com/thehormoneproject 

Links and resources mentioned in this episode will be shared in the Online Work with Jenn section of these show notes.

Hoping this episode supports you on the path of knowing, accepting, and loving who you truly are. Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do! 

To book a discovery call via email or send us a question you have, send it to hello@jennpike.com, and I or a member of my wonderful team will reach out to you.

Quotes: 

  • “I wasn't at my capacity, I was beyond my capacity.”
  • “Capacity is learned”
  • “In order to feel resilient or to have true resiliency, you have to first understand what your individual capacity is.”
  • “When I'm in the first half of my cycle, my energy is higher for me, I'm more primed and I get excited about all of the ideas and everything that comes my way... Then I pay for that when it's in the second half of my cycle, or when I'm feeling heavy”
  • “Where do you hear your own voice? Where do you have the time to grow your own self-awareness and to form and choose your own opinions, your own core values? In any capacity in life.”
  • “It's okay, to be honest and say, when someone asks, Hey, could you help me with this? I'm sorry, but I'm at capacity. Hey, could you go get this for me? I'm sorry, but I'm at capacity. Whatever the thing is, it's actually okay. If your gut instinct is like, I literally don't have room for that.”
  • “I am only one, but I am one. Though I can't do everything, I can do something. And so I will not let the things that I can't do, that I choose not to do, interfere with what I can do. And I know that to be true for myself and for others around me.”

03 Feb 2020Be Present In Your Body: Aligning with Yourself, Your Spirit and Your Connections to Others with Kate Northrup01:09:22

For this fabulous episode, I am thrilled to welcome Kate Northrup as my guest. In this incredible interview, we talk about the “shoulds” that we tend to put onto ourselves, how we tend to get stuck and add more responsibilities and tasks to our lists which prevents us from thriving and doesn’t allow us to create more time for the things that fill and enlighten us.

 

As women, we are all mothering someone in our lives, including ourselves, so this episode is for all of us. Kate encourages women to ask themselves: what would your life look like if you had the time to do the things that really matter to you, those things that truly light you up?

 

Kate is sharing the keys to creating a better relationship with your body, learning how to read the cues your body is giving you and to make the best decisions founded in what is that you need to do and not to do.

 

Kate also talks about her brand new book Do Less: A revolutionary Approach to Time and Energy Management for Ambitious Women

 

Here are the main topics of this outstanding conversation:

  • ● Kate shares how she decided that doing less was the way to move forward.
  • ● Kate talks about how she became interested in the moon’s phases and women’s cycles.
  • ● Overworking can be a trauma response.
  • ● Tools to work through the trauma and to learn how to just be present in our bodies.
  • ● We are mammals, and we forget this.
  • ● How can you fit more of you into your schedule?
  • ● How to recognize “energy vampires” by creating healthy boundaries.
  • ● Create space for what matters the most to finding yourself.
  • ● How you do what you do matters more than what you are doing.
  • ● Our well being depends on connection.
  • ● Tools to align with yourself.
  •  
  • As Kate marvellously states: You are already fabulous, you do not have to prove that to anyone! Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

07 Jan 2019Curing Inflammation Without Medication with Julie Daniluk00:59:34

Julie Daniluk RHN is a leading nutritionist and the co-host of Healthy Gourmet, a reality cooking show on OWN (the Oprah Winfrey Network). For twelve years, she was a co-operative owner and the Chief in store Nutritionist for one of Canada's largest health food stores, The Big Carrot Natural Food Market.

 

In this episode, Julie shares her knowledge about inflammation and how to reverse inflammatory conditions. Julie cured herself from what started as an E-coli infection she contracted in Asia, that kept progressing until she decided she needed to take the matter in her own hands.

 

She developed a list of foods that made her feel horrible, that ended up as a 15 pages document that Julie shared with friends and later became the foundation of her book Meals That Heal Inflammation.

 

Women suffer with inflammation more than men do. When women are transiting menopause, the sudden drop in estrogen causes higher inflammatory responses. The fact that women need to metabolize more estrogen than men, makes them more genetically predisposed to having a more sensitive immune system.

 

Inflammation acts different during the stages in women’s life. Young people tend to have polycystic ovarian syndrome, in these cases an ultrasound can be a great way to know more about the ovaries’ health before any treatment is implemented (avoid birth control pills as a measure to treat hormonal imbalance at all costs!)

 

It is also important to keep in mind that our intolerance to certain foods place one of the biggest roles in the hormonal cascade, so remember that researching and finding out which foods we don’t tolerate is crucial to our overall health.

 

How can we devise a realistic approach to removing these inflammatory triggers in our body? 

Start a food journal before beginning an elimination protocol. Learn about what you are eating and start adding foods that have macronutrients, as well as doubling up essential fatty acids, and get ready to feel amazing results in your hormonal balance within a month or two. 

 

How do we reduce autoimmunity?

When you suffer from leaky gut (hyperpermeability of the gut) there is a high autoimmune response from your body. To help digestion Mandarin Skin Plus is a great ally and is a key tool to reduce autoimmunity. Also, you should add probiotics to your diet, but be very careful of highly fermented foods (like kombucha) that bring in a lot of histamine and sugar cane.

 

Favorite superfoods

Artichokes: Every single part of the artichoke has its own super power!

Arugula: Shifts hormones while reducing inflammation, and assists your liver in metabolizing estrogen correctly.

Burdock: Is a profound blood, lymphatic and liver cleanser that also helps eliminate toxins.

Cherries and Pomegranates: Have them for better fertility and anti-inflammatory effect.

Add raw cacao to your diet (not sugar filled commercial chocolate!).

 

Never give up! Miracles are real! Become your own body detector and regain your health.

 

Wishing you more simplicity and ease in everything you do!

When I get home from the grocery store I take all my produce and give them a bath, I fill one side of the sink with the Kangen Water System on 2.5 level for cleaning, then I add a couple of drops of Lemon DoTerra Essential oils and a half of teaspoon of the DoTerra On Guard Concentrated Soap, and then I let it sit from 10 to 20 minutes. Lastly, I rinse everything and let it dry to later put everything into the crisper or bowls on the counter.

28 Feb 2022Do You Have Low Stomach Acid?00:34:30
In this episode, I continue the conversation from a few weeks ago on digestive issues and how low stomach acid is one of the common root  causes. If you have been told you have gut issues and been put on a protocol, and have seen little to no improvements, this is where low  stomach acid may become part of the equation. I discuss the signs,  symptoms and solutions for  low stomach acid in today’s episode.

02 Aug 2021Healing Our Feminine Libido00:59:24

Welcome back to The Simplicity Sessions, I'm delighted that you’ve joined us today. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project and the creator of the women's revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.

I wanted to let you know that the Thursday simplicity bites episodes of this podcast may not be happening every single Thursday. I'm actually taking some time off until around mid September. So if there's a surprise episode that decides to upload for Thursday because I've got that extra energy, consider yourself lucky. Otherwise I hope you'll tune in with us here every Monday for our weekly episodes.

Today’s conversation is with Dr. Jordin Wiggins ND. She is a sexual health disruptor and evolver, a naturopathic doctor, and the author of The Pink Canary. 

We’re taught that we’re supposed to have a sex drive, that you’re supposed to naturally be hornier than you are, and that your sex life is supposed to peak. And so many women hit a point in their life where they think, “That did not happen to me, it is not happening to me- there must be something wrong with me.”

We talk about issues that can impact feminine libido, including stress, communication, and health, including mental health. We don’t just talk about what's going wrong; we identify some of the more common things that women are feeling and going through, and then really give you feasible solutions.

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to hello@jennpike.com or via Instagram at @jennpike and I'll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts and advice. 

Here are the main topics of today’s episode:

  • Introducing our guest, Dr. Jordin Wiggins ND
  • Jordin’s journey of understanding her libido
  • Jordin’s book, The Pink Canary
  • Common themes that many women experience with their libido
  • Jordin’s program that considers holistic health and libido
  • The collective experience of knowing you aren’t alone

If you don’t get proper sleep your mood and body will suffer. Ask yourself if there is anything more you can do to improve your sleep. I use Valericalm by Saint Francis Herb Farm. It is especially good when I feel that kind of anxiousness, the one that prevents you from sleeping because you feel like you’re buzzing. Valericalm is amazingly helpful in calming your nervous system down without feeling drowsy or hungover.

06 Nov 2023Meal Plan by Design vs Default00:47:07

In this episode, we are tackling the large topic and commonly asked questions around meal plans. It would be easy for me to give you an equation to follow for every meal, but that’s just not going to give you the results you want and need. I believe when you understand the WHY behind the WHAT you are trying to create, it sticks with you in a deeper way, makes more sense and helps you on the days that feel more challenging. Let’s dive deeper, find the real reason you want to meal plan and start a new path to health together.

 

Today on The Simplicity Sessions:

  • Meal planning & what’s your reason behind it

  • How to balance & calculate fat, protein & carbs

  • Strong metabolic health

  • Planning for reality

  • Ingredient prep vs. Meal prep

  • Blue zones

  • Diet culture & your hormones

  • Maintenance calories

  • Body recomposition

  • Coaches need coaches

 

Thank you for joining us today. If you could rate, review & subscribe, it would mean the world to me!

26 Aug 2024Reclaiming Birth with Kristen Nagle00:43:08

In this episode, I am joined by Kristen Nagle, who is a former registered nurse. She was a registered nurse for 14 years and primarily worked in the NICU.

It is said that our children forever change us and Kristen experienced this more than she ever knew possible.

After the birth of her first son, she became really passionate about the food for her children and how she was nourishing and taking care of them. She ended up enrolling in the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, where I actually graduated from in 2001.

She became a Holistic Nutritionist on top of being a nurse working in the conventional medical care system. Her second son had some issues after being born and being exposed to some of his early childhood immunizations, which really opened her eyes up, especially working in that industry. It really just, peeled off this kind of top layer of us being able to, as parents, as mothers, ask questions when our child's body is exhibiting something that would feel outside of the norm of our baby.

Then in having her third baby, her little girl, this really felt like her redemption birth, which would forever change the perception of how incredibly strong women are and the beautiful gift that we have been given in motherhood. 

So now her passion has transformed from being inside the walls of the hospital and being out into the world and helping women find their power to truly reclaim their birth.

10 Oct 2024The Power of Menopause With Nicole Scott And Melissa Hyde00:52:25

In this episode, I have Nicole Scott and Melissa Hyde here, and, you know, we have been friends and colleagues and have known each other through the fitness industry, the nutrition industry and through being mothers going through all of the changes that life has brought.

In the last, you know, few years, I have watched both Melissa and Nicole create a really amazing transition of taking a company that they had built and grown side by side as friends and colleagues and mothers, but now really stepped into a place of education and empowerment for women. This stemmed from going through their own experiences in perimenopause and menopause, at times feeling like they were the only ones that were going through what they were going through.

They both went through very different experiences, which we're going to spend time talking about because as a woman listening, I think it's so important to hear the variety of ways that we can move through these times in our life. If you only ever hear one experience, you may feel like you're on an island of struggle by yourself.

Then we're going to talk about a really exciting event that's coming up that all three of us are apart of and share about, it’s is going to be free for all of you to attend and to share with all of the women in your life.

Let’s dive in!

11 Feb 2019Overwhelm and Burnout as a Path to Transformation00:49:35

Asha is an Indigenous Medicine Woman, Spiritual Mentor and Healer who believes that all healing is possible when we remember who we are. She has had a private healing practice for the past 15 years and has helped thousands of people come back to wholeness, health and self love. Through ceremony, healing circles, mentorship and other medicine ways, Asha has held spaces for women to see their gifts and honour their brilliance. Her online membership, Sacred, is her newest creation and is a container for women to root down and spread their wings.

 

Asha started a hands on healing practice combined with homeopathy, to support her clients to find balance and healing. She held this practice in her own home and this had a great impact to her energy and even though she deeply enjoyed the one on one interaction, she had to shift away from this practice. Asha turned to mentorship, that was what she always wanted for herself.

 

Asha started to hold Mentorship weekends that are made for practitioners and healers to work on themselves, specially in self compassion, in order to bring them back to their true selves. As part of the program, healers learn to first identify whose feelings they are experiencing and also work on strengthening their sacred “no”, considering learning how to set boundaries as the best act of self love.

 

The Sacred Membership online program just started a month ago but already has more than 200 people signed in. This sacred movement is directed to healers and caregivers, who need to work on themselves to put their message out in the world, by respecting their own cycles first and realizing they are enough, despite in which stage of the cycle they are in.

 

Tips from Asha:

  • ● To step out of the state of overwhelm and depletion, Asha suggests to listen to the cycle you are transiting, and trust that it is safe to do what is best for you. 
  • ● To raise your personal vibration at your home or workplace, you can carry crystals, medicinal plants, essential oils, special words and candles that bring beauty and harmony to the spaces you are.
  • Hoping you enjoy this amazing information and feel the inspiration to tap in the possibility that is awaiting within yourself and help you uncover your own journey. Wishing you more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

19 Oct 2020Show Up to Your Life: No Permission Required with Dr. Shayamala Kiru01:07:18

Dr. Shyamala is a Clinically-trained Leadership & Relationship Coach and has spent the last two decades helping people master their emotional intelligence. Her mission is to help women build High-Performance Relationships in every area of their life. She is the founder of The EQ Code, a high-touch coaching program designed to help high performers transform the way they think, communicate, and lead.

 

Shyamala is also the founder of the Kiru Wellness Clinic, a mental health practice dedicated to the entire family system. She spent several years on the Board of Directors for the Ontario Association for Marriage & Family Therapy. As a speaker, Shyamala provides frequent talks and workshops on a local, national, and international scale. Shyamala is a media expert, having appeared on a national television show for nearly a decade and makes guest appearances on CTV, CP24 as well as frequent pieces of print media.

 

Today, Dr. Shymala and I have a deep conversation about women, the patterns of our childhoods that model our current decisions, our symptoms and their root causes, the different styles of communication, and how important is to take a look at our boundaries and relationships since these are the ones that are directly linked to the quality of our lives.

 

Here are the main topics of a great conversation:

  • Shymala talks about her backstory.
  • The raw reality of burnout.
  • The moment when you realize that the tools that used to work for you are not sufficient anymore.
  • Do you feel that you don’t have “permission” to renegotiate your boundaries and relationships?
  • The quality of your life is determined by the quality of your relationships.
  • The difference between a symptom and a root cause.
  • The templates that we experienced in our families of origin, are the patterns that we will subconsciously try to replicate.
  • Women tend to over-function and subsequently end up promoting under-functioning family members.
  • You are responsible for your happiness.
  • The four primary communication styles.
  • The fifth style of communication: The Alternator.
  • CASE: A frame that can help you to guide a difficult conversation (Context, Ask, Specify, ReEmbrace and let go).
  • Relationships are systemic: if one part of the relationship changes the other parts will have to change.
  • Who are you looking for permission from?

 

Hoping this conversation helps you to move in the direction of strengthening your skills in the emotional intelligence arena. These are guidelines for you to start showing up to your life and relationships, you deserve it! Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

17 Feb 2022The Importance of a Digestive Reset00:43:47

In this episode, I discuss the topic of masculine and feminine energies that has been coming up in quite a few of my programs recently. This ebb and flow of energies can show up in the boundaries we set for ourselves or how we structure and schedule our lives. The beauty of it is there is a balance and dance between the two, not a black and white mentality.

And I had that energy and that like, anger of like, I'll show you I'll show I'll prove you wrong. But when you're trying to prove the world wrong, you burn out and you're doing it from an angry place, but it got me started. So.

28 Oct 2024Herbal Support for Menopause & Perimenopause with St. Francis01:14:06

Ready to cut through the noise around menopause and find natural solutions that actually work? In this special masterclass podcast episode, I'm thrilled to team up with two powerhouse women from St. Francis Herb Farm – a company I've personally trusted for over a decade both in my clinical practice and my own health journey.

Join me as I chat with Caitlin, VP of Sales & Marketing (and fellow mom crushing it!) and Dr. Blossom Bitting, a naturopathic physician with 20+ years of expertise in herbal medicine. We're diving deep into:

 

  • The real talk about hormone replacement therapy - and why I take a balanced approach between the "HRT is everything" and "wait on hormones" camps

  • Natural solutions for those fun perimenopausal symptoms (hello, hot flashes, anxiety, and sleep issues!)

  • Why understanding hormones is crucial when you're navigating a transition that can span over a decade

  • Practical, simple tips you can actually implement (because who needs more complicated health advice?)

 

As someone who specializes in women's health and hormones, I'm passionate about helping you find YOUR path through this transition. Whether you're considering HRT, already on it, or looking for natural support, this episode breaks down what you really need to know about supporting your body during this time.

Remember: Your lifestyle choices matter every single day - from digestion to movement to the company you keep. Let's explore how herbal medicine can be a powerful part of your menopause toolkit!

17 Jun 2024The Myths of Menopause with Kristin Johnson and Maria Claps01:18:04

Maria and Kristin join me on today’s podcast. Maria and Kristin are the founders of Wise and well, and are incredible trailblazers and educators in the community of women's health and hormones. Their voices are only going to be heard more widespread as their book comes out and their education continues to move around the world. I love that both of these women have a very direct no B's approach to educating. Maria, an FDN practitioner, and Kristin, a Board-certified nutritionist, are plainspoken friends and practitioners who share a passion for women's health, especially women's health at midlife. As both are themselves menopausal, they've refined the art and science of thriving as a midlife woman based on both clinical and personal experience. They combine individualized nutrition and lifestyle changes tailored to midlife women's needs with mindset coaching, lab testing and hormone replacement therapy education to help women thrive so that they can stop or prevent their health from spinning out of control.

Quotes -

  • “If your elimination pathways are sluggish, if they're moving too quickly, if you aren't pooping and clearing toxins on a regular basis, you aren't eliminating these from your body.”
  • “...if you have too much beta glucuronidase, it is going to make it very hard for you to properly clear your estrogen and those toxins out of your system. And so that is something that we test for. “
  • “So for women who are suffering from a lot of these infections, you want to be testing and seeing what is going on in the gut.”
  • “The only way that we understand what is really going on is we run the functional test to assess what's happening.”

22 Nov 2020Seven Imbalances in a Woman’s Body: All About Your Thyroid with Jenn Pike00:42:54

Today I am excited for this new addition to the Audacious Woman Series which has been focused on seven common imbalances in a woman’s body, and this time I will dive deep into our Thyroid. But before I go any further you need to know that I am not your practitioner, I don’t know you personally, and that is the reason why I can only share general information to keep your awareness up. If you enter my program The Hormone Project we can begin working one on one with Dr. Laura Anderson hone in on your story, in order to help you reach a better understanding of your body and the signs it is sending you.

 

In this episode I will recommend what you should ask your doctor and what tests and elements of your blood work that need a closer look. I will also explain the functions of your thyroid and the impact it has on our overall health.

 

Here are the main topics of another episode in this awesome series:

  • What is your thyroid responsible for?
  • Different types of thyroid inflammation in your body.
  • What are the signs of hypothyroidism?
  • How can you tell if your thyroid is hyperactive?
  • Autoimmune conditions that affect thyroids.
  • The gut is where everything begins.
  • How can you be diagnosed with Hashimoto’s?
  • What does receiving “help” for your thyroid look like in the medical world?
  • You can still struggle with symptoms even when you are taking thyroid medication.
  • Digging into the root of what is going on in your body takes time.
  • You have to address what is going on in your gut and rearrange your lifestyle choices in order to heal.
  • Choose the right products to help your body detoxify.
  • Get better quality sleep.
  • Are you still consuming dairy and gluten?
  • The thyroid doesn’t like to be overstimulated.
  • Supplementation to help the thyroid.
  • Nothing is isolated in your body.
  • Postpartum thyroid health
  • You have to serve yourself first, your family needs you.
  • What tests to ask for? You need to test and not guess.
  • Illness and healing doesn't happen linearly.
  • Blood sugar stability matters!
  • Tools for healing other than supplementation.
  • The mental and emotional aspects affecting your thyroid.

 

I hope you can take advantage of this basic information on how to take care and support your thyroid as a starting point of your healing journey. Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

30 Sep 2021The Difference Between Stress and Burnout00:12:26

Welcome back to The Simplicity Sessions, I'm delighted that you’ve joined us today. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project and the creator of the women's revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.

The ladies in my practice often use the terms ‘stress’ and ‘burnout’ interchangeably without knowing that there is a difference between the two terms. Stress is when you take on so much work and responsibility that you cannot complete everything. Burnout is when you have given up on tasks and feel disengaged from your daily activities.

Once you realize where you are within the spectrum of stress and burnout, you can focus more on the solutions that will help you get back on track. I discuss the solutions to create a life of simplicity and ease.

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to hello@jennpike.com or via Instagram at @jennpike and I'll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts and advice.

Here are the main topics of today’s episode:

  • Stress and burnout used interchangeably
  • What stress looks like
  • What burnout looks like
  • Solutions to help during trying times

  • “You don't care about it. You completely disengage another thing in terms of your emotions.”
  • “There is a list for every list, for every list for everything. And that is a state of stress versus burnout in which you have never-ending tasks. You have piles of uncompleted things all around you, and it just keeps mounting and mounting.”
  • “Eat nourishing foods; get the rest, hydrate your body; and balance your blood sugar. Spend time in nature and get yourself to bed at a good time. Spend time with good quality people. Create space for yourself. Give yourself grace and compassion to feel your way through the life that you are currently living so that you can understand more about some of the things you need to do to create that level of simplicity and ease in the life that you are moving towards."

Lisa Hendrickson-Jack is a certified Fertility Awareness Educator and Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner who teaches women to chart their menstrual cycles for natural birth control, conception, and monitoring overall health.

 

In her new book The Fifth Vital Sign, Lisa debunks the myth that regular ovulation is only important when you want children, by recognizing the menstrual cycle as a vital sign. Drawing heavily from the current scientific literature, Lisa presents an evidence-based approach to fertility awareness and menstrual cycle optimization. She hosts the Fertility Friday Podcast, a weekly radio show devoted to helping women connect to their fifth vital sign by uncovering the connection between menstrual cycle health, fertility, and overall health.

 

These are the main topics of this valuable conversation:

  • Lisa shares the mission and story behind her work.
  • Lisa’s early experiences with fertility awareness.
  • Our cycles are not just to have babies.
  • What does a healthy menstrual cycle look like?
  • What is happening when you get spotting before your actual period begins?
  • Our health is not in a container, everything is interconnected.
  • Lisa gives recommendations for women having low progesterone.
  • Why you should care about your ovulation even when you are not trying to get pregnant.
  • Ovulation and its relation to your overall health.
  • Best tips to reclaim your libido and sexuality while you are in menopause.
  • Lunar cycling.
  • What are you going to monitor during the month?
  • The menstrual cycle as the fifth vital sign.
  • The myth of condoms.
  • How long you should be charting before using it as a method of birth control.

 

Hoping this conversation helps you connect with your body, your health, and the amazing feminine power laying in all of us. Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

12 May 2022High vs. Low Cortisol & how it is Impacting Your Energy, Mood, Sleep, Cravings, Weight & More00:24:41

In this episode, I address the questions and confusion around the signs and symptoms of high or low cortisol. This hormone impacts your energy, mood, sleep, cravings, weight and more, and when it is not balanced, you will  FEEL it. The problem happens when we guess what is wrong and try to supplement and support our bodies before we get tested.

Grab your notebook  and pen, this episode is jam packed with education for you.

16 Oct 2023C-Section Rehab with Dr. Kim Jamieson-Blok00:46:45

In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Kim Jamieson-Blok, Doctor of Chiropractic, Massage Therapist, and Inspired Entrepreneur and hands-on healer for over 23 years! She has taken numerous certifications over the past 2 decades including several Myofascial and Soft tissue release techniques, Cranial Adjusting, Concussion Management, Paediatrics certifications, and many more!

For 20+ years she’s been lit up by being a health professional, coach & mentor to thousands of patients through hands-on healing, self care movement & release techniques and foundational lifestyle & nutrition advice. In more recent years there has been a deeper focus on women’s health & wellness and empowering them to be their own health advocate. Teaching them about their nervous system regulation, supporting their elimination/detox pathways, their body’s cyclical rhythms & hormones, foundational life hacks and things we just should have known about our bodies all along! She believes there is so much we can do for ourselves, we just need guidance & support! We know our bodies the best and need to lean into the knowing and trust our gut (intuition).

She is the founder, CEO and creator of Optimal Health & Chiropractic and she has recently developed The C Section Collective, an innovative self-care program that walks women who’ve had a c section or abdominal surgery, through a series of intentionally curated (nurturing) videos to support and inspire them to be an active participant in their healing journey, to move at their own pace, and feel connected to their bodies again. Today we are diving into exactly that - C-Section Rehab - let’s begin!

29 Jun 2020Decluttering and Mental Wellness with Cathy Perez00:41:26

In today’s episode, we are approaching this subject for the first time. We have talked many times about an overall simplicity in our lives, but today we will talk about how to implement this lifestyle at home, having fewer things, and better organization. It is not about being perfect but about creating a space that emulates that mental well being and declutters that we want to have in all aspects of our lives.

 

Cathy Perez is a certified wellness coach, she loves to use her own spin on the KonMari Method in which she is a Certified Organizing Consultant. Cathay shares her story about how she got into this field and how this system helped her deal with her anxiety and OCD in terms of organization. Cathy shares a lifestyle system that can create better focus and more productivity and wellness in her client’s lives.

 

These are the main topics of this awesome conversation:

  • Cathay shares how she started her journey.
  • How to begin using this system of organization to create simplicity in your life.
  • Categories, not location: clothing, books, paper, miscellaneous and emotional items.
  • A gratitude practice, no more guilt.
  • What to do with all the empty spaces in your home.
  • How often does someone have to go back to these categories?
  • What to do with the things you don’t want any more during pandemic times.
  • How to organize your paperwork
  • How this approach is helping people in terms of their mental health and well being.
  • Can you create decluttering in your own personal space if your family is not on board with you?

 

I hope that this episode has inspired you to create a little more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

Our bedrooms are a special place, it is where we come to rest, share time with our partner, and connect with our own thoughts, all these are very hard to achieve if we have lots of stuff around us. I want to share with you some of my evening routines that have created a really profound difference to my own level of rest and mental decluttering.

- I wear blue light Blockers (Spektrum is my favorite brand),

- I keep a journal and a book next to my bed. Before going to bed I write everything that is on my mind in my journal, I get all these out of my head so it does not conflict with my sleep.

- I read something light or inspiring.

- I use a sleep mask, the brand I use is Buckey, this one is particularly amazing because it has cups, that prevent it from touching your lashes and eyes. Definitely a lifesaver!

- I diffuse Serenity or Balance Doterra Essential Oils.

-I take a few drops of ValeryCalm from Saint Francis Herb Farm which I call a hug in a tincture bottle.

- I also use my Skin Essence Eye Cream

-I alternate a few oils around my eyes too, which I love, Light Oil, Soothe, and Nourish all from Skin Essence Organics.

09 Dec 2019The Impact of Alcohol in Women’s Bodies with Jenn Pike00:31:22

In today’s episode I am going to share with you the impact that alcohol has on our bodies, I know this is a difficult topic, since a glass of wine is very often related to socializing, celebrations, and relaxing… Hold on there!  I am not going to tell you not to drink, but awareness needs to be brought to this subject.

  • ● The liver and its functions.
  • ● Alcohol consumption affects the liver and this has consequences on the ability to detoxify, absorb nutrients, keep blood sugar balanced, and hydration (among others!).
  • ● Cravings and its relationship with alcohol intake.
  • ● There is an increase of estrogen in women that regularly drink alcohol, that dramatically elevates the chances of suffering breast cancer
  • ● Did you know that a serving of wine is equal to 3 ounces?

  • During the holiday season we go through changes in our diets and habits, that is why I am extra cautious in how I take care of my system in terms of my nutrition, life style, sleep, movement ,hydration and supplements. Taking care of my liver is a priority since it is the organ responsible for more than 500 different functions every single day, detoxing as well as metabolizing your hormones. Each day I support my liver with Hepato DR from Saint Francis Herb Farm, it very antiinflammatory while assisting your immune system.

30 Nov 2020Seven Imbalances in a Woman’s Body: PMS and PMDD: You Are not Meant to Suffer with Jenn Pike 00:46:46

Today I am going to take you on the journey of understanding the difference between PMS and PMDD, unfortunately, this is another subject in which we haven't got the proper education, and our girls are suffering due to this miseducation. I recently read a message that was supposed to be a little text for yourself in the morning that said something like this: “Dear beauty, I know today is the first day of your period but you are not meant to suffer.” So many of us have grown up believing that we are to dread our period, like some sort of curse and that it is impossible to not be moody and emotional, that our boobs are going to hurt and we will be crampy and in pain. These beliefs have only fed the disconnection from our bodies. Please listen: It does not have to be this way! That is why I am dedicating this episode to talking about PMS and PMDD, so you can tell the difference and have more tools to read the signs your body is giving you.

 

Here are the main topics of today’s episode:

  • What can you expect a week prior to your period?
  • PMS (Premenstrual syndrome): symptoms and signs.
  • PMDD (Premenstrual dysphoric disorder) is much less common than PMS.
  • The emotional signs that you shouldn’t ignore.
  • Root causes of your dis-ease.
  • The limitations of the regular blood tests.
  • The right tests to assess your hormonal health.
  • Why you should track your cycle.
  • Moving your body according to the different phases of your menstrual cycle.
  • Triggers for PMS.
  • How to help your body to get rid of the excess of hormones.
  • Do not neglect your protein intake!
  • Quality sleep is a must!
  • Are you supplementing well?
  • Tips to reduce your stress.
  • The products you are using also have an impact on how you are feeling.
  • The relationship between antidepressants and gut function.
  • Progesterone and your brain.
  • Castor oil benefits.

 

Ladies, I hope you learned something from this episode, something that you can put into practice or may be information that can help a woman you love realize that none of us needs to suffer from our periods, but rather take them as an opportunity to listen to the signs they give us every single month in regards to our overall health. Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

14 Apr 2022How Intermittent Fasting Can Impact Hormones & Perimenopause00:47:50

In this episode, I dive into a very hot topic today – Intermittent Fasting – but specifically how it can impact and affect your hormones. I have been noticing that it tends to be the perimenopausal age group that subscribes to intermittent fasting because they want to lose weight, not because of the other benefits. Today, I demystify the pros and cons of intermittent fasting.

26 Jan 2023How to build a profitable email list00:20:44

In this episode, I talk about what I think is one of the most important things when running a business, how to  build a profitable email list. In a world that is so heavily focused on social media, gaining followers and getting likes, many will spend an abundance of time on these areas for their business and not make many sales. Are sales possible through social media? Yes, but it’s not as simple as you’d think, PLUS you don’t have control over social  media - platforms going down, accounts being deleted, etc. That is why a mailing list has been and will continue to be so  important for making sales.

23 Dec 2024How Can Syncing Your Workouts to Your Body Maximize Your Results?00:47:27

Are you tired of one-size-fits-all fitness programs that ignore your body's natural rhythms? In this deeply personal episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my 28-year fitness journey and the groundbreaking approach that completely transformed how I train and understand women's bodies.

Key Takeaways

  • The Fitness Myth Exposed: Why traditional workout methods might be doing more harm than good

  • My Competitive Fitness Turning Point: How backstage conversations revealed the hidden costs of extreme fitness

  • Cycle-Synced Training: A revolutionary approach to exercise that works with your body, not against it

My Story: From Fitness Competitions to a Hormone-Conscious Revolution

When I stepped on stage for my first fitness competition in 2015, I thought I knew everything about health and fitness. But what I discovered backstage changed everything. Despite seemingly fit bodies, many women were experiencing:

  • Hormone disruptions

  • Painful periods

  • Anxiety

  • Hair loss

  • Severe nutritional imbalances

 

The Birth of SYNCED

After years of pushing my body to its limits, I realized women need a radically different approach to fitness. This isn't just another workout program—it's a complete reimagining of how we support our bodies through every phase of life.

What You'll Learn

  • Why women cannot train like men

  • How hormonal cycles dramatically impact fitness and recovery

  • Strategies for working with your body's natural rhythms

  • Insights into perimenopause and hormonal changes

 

Who Should Listen

✓ Women feeling burned out by traditional fitness approaches

✓ Those struggling with hormonal health

✓ Fitness enthusiasts seeking a more intuitive approach

✓ Anyone curious about cycle-synced training

23 Sep 2024What Stage Of Perimenopause Are You In?00:45:17

Today is actually an impromptu recording. I had another episode that was going to go live this week, but I just came out of being a guest expert inside one of my colleagues workshops that she was hosting. And I feel so riled up based on a lot of the questions and the concerns, the shares and honestly, the confusion that so many of the women had inside of this.

We talked a lot today about perimenopause, around a lot of the confusion, thinking that your period has to change in order for perimenopause to even be something that has started to think that you have to have every single symptom under the sun in order to be in perimenopause.

Believing the statistics that when we hear the average woman is 51 years old when she goes through menopause, that that means that you're only going to be around 50 when you go into perimenopause, because it only takes a year. I sat there and thought to myself, isn't it so wild how we live in a time right now where we have access to thousands of podcasts? I'm not the first one that you have listened to, and I definitely won't be the last one.

We have access to hundreds of thousands of YouTube channels that we could tune into.

We have Instagram.

People were following Snap and TikTok and Facebook and blogs and email and you name it. And yet still we are confused, we are frustrated, and we are overwhelmed when it comes to understanding our own body.

Quotes -

  • “...decreasing inflammation as a whole, I would say nutrition could be one of your most important things. I found that when we address an anti-inflammatory way of eating, it's the easiest thing to do because we will provide healthy swaps.”
  • “...start eating a varied and diverse diet and getting obsessed with nourishing your body.”
  • “...the next type that we'll move into is inflammation by sugar. So these are people who are addicted. Some people are truly addicted to sugar or cravings are out the wazoo and sugar is totally impacting them, causing them irritability to break out.”
  • “What is going on in the body related to your digestive system that may be causing this inflammation?”
  • “I just recently started to implement topical probiotics because there's research that shows the skin microbiome is absolutely connected to this as well. Not just the gut microbiome. Kind of feeding from an internal standpoint and fixing the gut lining, like we've always done, but also topically, like using topical spray probiotics to help that as well.”

Quotes - 

  • “I like the analogy that a CGM is like a movie. You see a full picture of what's happening in your day versus a lab draw or a fingerprint is really just a snapshot, it's just a picture of that moment in time.”
  • “..... fasting in general is a type of stress on the body and stress isn't necessarily a bad thing. It can be if it's out of control.”
  • “What people don't realize is that, sometimes when we say yes, exercise, they expect that I need to exercise for one hour during this huge CrossFit workout in order to get a benefit. And that's not true, any type of movement is helpful, even if you have a high carb meal or a bigger portion size.”
  • “Depending on what you hear when you hear the word carb, because if you hear carbon, you think like bread, pasta, rice, those types of things, maybe you need to tell yourself fiber, so that you go towards things with color.”
  • “.... even if you take a couple bites of your chicken before you eat, you know, your key or your rice or whatever it is that that makes a difference. So prioritize protein for sure.”

 

31 Dec 2018New Year's Intentions with Jenn Pike00:57:01

This New Year’s episode is a special one that aims to help you pinpoint your goals and intentions for 2019 the right way. Grab your pen and paper, and prepare a “Soul soothing” drink (find the recipe below) to really synch-in with what this episode is about.

 

New year’s resolutions bring great expectations that usually don't last long and leave us with a feeling of failure, coming hand in hand with procrastination. We make it too complicated!

 

Find your balance: you can make your own choices. Even though we will encounter many situations that we cannot change, we can always decide how we react to them, and what perspective we use to interpret what life throws in front of us. We have choices today, pick the ones that will serve you and your purpose.

 

How do you decide your intentions for 2019?

  • - Find the motivations behind your goals.
  • - Identify how you want to feel.
  • - Find how you can keep your energy focused on achieving these purposes.
  • - Ask yourself: Are these goals yours, or they are someone else's?
  • - Do not limit your dreams, anything is possible, but it is important to be honest with yourself.
  • Mindset First
  • Get in touch everyday with your motivation. Send love messages to yourself, reminding yourself what matters to you.
  • Ask yourself who is getting into your mind and how their energy affecting your mindset.
  • Nutrition
  • Nutrition is the foundation for everything, it is even more important than exercise. A healthy nutrition is the key to healing, repairing and truly seeing the results of your training. 
  • Sleep
  • Sleep is where all the healing takes place. Getting proper sleep is enough to start losing weight, most of the time.
  • Supplements
  • I suggest my “Foundational Five” which is a whole food complex (Juice Plus is the one Jenn’s family uses), Vitamin D, probiotics, magnesium and omega 3. Also you can add a methylated B complex and collagen.
  • Organizing and decluttering
  • Your space needs to be organized if you want to be able to focus. Clear out your home, free out space! Your calendar needs to have clarity and simplicity too, Jenn uses Google calendar for all the family and personal activities, separating different activities with different colors. 
  • Finances
  • This can be one of the biggest areas of stress. Use a spreadsheet, including all the income and all your expenses. Call everyone of your providers (internet, cable, insurance, online subscriptions) find out what you are not using, what can you delete or not renew, and you will free up lots of money. Clearing up your finances has more impact in your health than you think it has, once you know where your money is going you will be able to choose wisely and consciously where to spend it. 
  • Relationships
  • Work on your connections with your family and friends, reach out to your community, break isolation. Schedule time with your family, your children and your spouse, you all need quality time. 
  • Reencounter Your Joy Point
  • Ask yourself what do you love to do and when was the last time you did it. Find that joy point and spend good time on it.
  • Regardless your situation, you have the opportunity to make 2019 the year you decide. Create your own vibrant, individual simplicity project, funnel your energy into your intentions.
  • Happy new year! 
  • Wishing you more simplicity and ease in all that you do!  
  •  Cacao Elixir drink recipe:
  • ● 1 tablespoon of Dandy Blend
  • ● 1 tablespoon of cacao or cocoa powder
  • ● 1 teaspoon of Ceylon Cinnamon 
  • ● 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, MCT oil powder or nut butter
  • ● 1 to 2 scoops of collagen
  • ● ¼ cup of non dairy milk
  • ● 1 cup and ½ of hot water

25 Jan 2021What You Need to Know About Iron Levels and Supplements with Amber Lynn Vitale01:05:22

 

 

I am joined today by Amber Lynn Vitale to talk about the role that certain nutrients play in women’s bodies. We especially dive into how to treat iron deficiencies during our reproductive years, pregnancy and beyond. Iron supplements have a terrible reputation since some of them can cause constipation and other uncomfortable symptoms. Listen to today’s episode and find what the best ways and times are to consume iron either through your food choices or supplements.

 

Amber Lynn Vitale, CN, is a Certified Nutritionist in Integrative Nutrition and an Ayurvedic Clinical Consultant. Since early childhood, she has been fascinated with the power of foods, herbs, and dietary supplements to optimize health and, after earning a B.A. in Economics and Russian, she went on to pursue this passion. Since 1996 she has both worked in product retail, and maintained her own wellness practice, often working with doctors and holistic/integrative medical professionals promoting optimum health inside and out. Since 2010 she has reached a wider audience as a freelance content producer for several natural health publications, educating retailers and consumers alike on what quality really means in both foods and supplements. Amber has been a member of the Garden of Life Education team since 2014, continuing her mission by Empowering Extraordinary Health!

 

Here are the main topics of a conversation that will certainly continue on another episode:

  • The Ayurveda approach with pregnant women.
  • Why can a pregnant woman suffer from nutritional deficiencies?
  • How can you test for iron deficiencies?
  • The best iron options and how to consume them.
  • Do digestive enzymes help your body better uptake the minerals from the food you are consuming?
  • The role of iron for the fetus during pregnancy.
  • How to make sure your baby or toddler is receiving enough iron nutrition.
  • Adverse effects of low iron levels in babies.
  • Recommendations for women during the postpartum stage.
  • Why plant iron liquid is the best choice.
  • Seasonal approaches to iron supplementation.

 

Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!

I wanted to talk about iron as a supplement. It is difficult to find one that actually increases the level of iron in your body without being hard to digest and cause constipation.

 

If you have a heavy cycle or you are getting your period often (every 21 to 25 days) this usually doesn’t leave enough time for your system to rebuild. My Kind Organics line from Garden of Life is what I have been using for many years. Garden of Life’s iron is the first and only certified USDA organic, non-GMO verified liquid plant iron, with an amazing cranberry-lime flavor. There is also B6 and B12 added to it, which is very important for women.

 

Here is my smoothie recipe for the day!

23 Mar 2023The real cost you should be concerned about in business00:30:11

In this episode, I break down the real cost you should be concerned about in your business. There are a lot of parallels between building your business and taking care of your health and one of the biggest connections is the fear of trusting ourselves. We like to think it's money holding us back, when in fact it is fear! Having support in these situations is everything, whether it be family, friends, or a mentor, and it will help you grow exponentially.

10 Jun 2019Perimenopause and Menopause Masterclass With Jenn Pike01:33:59

First of all, I encourage you to check the episode titled Cycle and Fertility Masterclass. Today, I am sharing another masterclass which is the Perimenopause-Menopause Project. The reason I decided to share this information with you is that in the last few years of my practice, I was faced with the reality that most women know very little about their bodies. The problems arising during perimenopause and menopause usually show up and catch us unaware, since we were never truly taught what is actually going on in our cycling years, leading us to burn out after not treating or listening to our bodies properly.

 

I am sharing all my knowledge and experience so we can start to put some context around the emotions that you are feeling, this is not just in your head, this is a physical, physiological, biological and chemistry response happening in your body, and it is showing up in how you feel, look, move, sleep and be in your life.

 

Here are the main topics of this amazing masterclass:

 

  • ● Perimenopause, Menopause and Postmenopausal stages.
  • ● Do not become attached to certain ages.
  • ● Your epigenetics will determine the age span for different stages.
  • ● Hormone fluctuation when transitioning to Menopause.
  • ● Perimenopause and menopause is puberty in reverse
  • ● Perimenopause isn’t just a physical event!
  • ● Three types of Perimenopause: artificial, premature and natural.
  • ● The gradual process of Perimenopause.
  • ● Bioidentical hormones.
  • ● What you eat feeds your cells.
  • ● Changes in Perimenopausal years.
  • ● Typical symptoms of Perimenopause.
  • ● Symptoms of estrogen decline.
  • ● Importance to check your gut.
  • ● Menopause does not create health problems, our lifestyle does.
  • ● Choosing your food wisely to help your hormone functions.
  • ● Movement and exercising during Perimenopause.
  • ● Focus on the food that will support your bone health.
  • ● The right supplementation is not the same for everyone.
  • ● What to do with carbohydrates.
  • ● Taking care of the vaginal microbiome.
  • ● Support your liver.
  • ● Look at your lifestyle as a whole.
  • Hoping this masterclass helps you to know more about what goes on in your body through the stages of Perimenopause and Menopause, as well as assisting you in building more resources to take better care of your health as a whole. Wishing more simplicity and ease in all that you do!
