“You are the picture of health.” These were the words my doctor spoke to me after reviewing my blood work 5 years ago. I should have been relieved. But I was exhausted., I was anxious, my periods were out of control and I couldn’t think straight. Inspire of 6 workouts a week and calorie restriction, I was gaining weight and fighting sugar cravings every afternoon.

Sadly this has become a very common story that I hear from my clients. Some of them have spent years being told that they are fine, when they most definitely do NOT feel fine. Why are blood tests telling us we are healthy when we don’t feel that way?

I have the answer for you.  In this exclusive expert interview with personal trainer and Functional Practitioner Jenn Malecha, we dive deep into why this is happening and what you can do about it ASAP.

Tune In To Learn:

1. Why blood tests aren’t helping you feel better
2. Where functional lab work can give you answers
3. What functional labs to run

Jennifers BIO

Surrendering is a choice that took years of work of shedding layers of heartbreak and trauma that kept me in a deep darkness and pain. It took many years of aching, yearning, and praying for a change. I pretended I was okay, and lied to myself often because I honestly didn’t know how deeply trauma and codependency was interwoven into the fabric of my life. During my darkest point, of my worst heartbreak – I was introduced to yoga and began a deep discovery of myself. I found the practice to be truly life changing. Since starting yoga, I’ve healed codependency of people, and alcohol, overcame anxiety, depression & panic attacks. I also worked with a life coach to help me remove my limiting beliefs and repair my low self worth that kept me stuck in a cycle of toxic people and self hatred of my body and myself. Over time, I was able to heal emotional and physical trauma in my body through the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, and I healed spiritually through the path of surrendering to my Creator’s love and forgiveness. This was the only way to fill the giant hole in my soul – a path of surrender is truly how all my suffering came to an end. I’ve rediscovered my inherent worth, and have forgiven those who have hurt me the most – including myself. Today I am a Certified Yoga Teacher, Ayurvedic practitioner, a Life coach and I lead transformational retreats and am incredibly passionate about helping my students heal their mind, body & soul. I believe all suffering is a choice, and every human deserves to experience love at the highest level, free of pain. I invite you to begin your journey of discovering you today by beginning in one of my Yoga classes, Master Classes, Coaching, Workshops or retreat. You are worthy of healing and deserve the deepest level of love.

Although I am a believer in the miracles of western medicine when needed, I deeply feel like it should be the last resort since there is SO much we can do to heal ourselves naturally through holistic practices that protect our hormones and function and also to ensure we have done the work so that if we NEED pharmaceuticals, we have done the work to have a solid foundation so that our body can receive them and use them and heal from them…we don’t  get something for nothing right?

Jen Morris, founder of Renegade Motherhood, is a Certified Integrative Health Coach and postpartum educator who helps moms rediscover the woman within the mother and reclaim their energy, vitality and purpose. As a mom of two (including one born at the peak of the pandemic), Jen's own postpartum physical and mental health challenges made her deeply aware of the massive lack of support, education and resources available for mothers in the U.S. and beyond. This fueled her desire to create Renegade Motherhood so she can provide the support and resources to the mom who feels left behind, burned out, depleted and disconnected from herself. Through her podcast, social media platform and online community, she is breaking down pervasive myths about postpartum recovery and maternal wellbeing and helping moms prioritize themselves amidst the journey of raising kids. Jen has been featured on Well+Good and PureWow along with several podcasts. In addition to her postpartum and nutrition career, she is also a seasoned stage and commercial actor having appeared on hundreds of stages and in multiple commercials. (feel free to cut the actor part if you feel it's unnecessary!)
