In the last few weeks, I have been asked at least once a day to talk more about the link between gut health & hormones. I recently announced that I am pregnant and I've shared that I KNOW a big part of the reason I was able to get pregnant naturally is because I focused on improving my gut health in the months before conceiving. If you've followed my story, you know it involves a number of hormonal imbalances. I was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) when I was 16 years old. In my mid-twenties, a fertility specialist told me I'd need medical interventions to get pregnant. In my early thirties I was diagnosed with hashimotos thyroiditis, an auto-immune thyroid condition. When I froze my eggs in 2017, I was again told that it was highly unlikely that I could get pregnant without intervention. And yet, I did. In fact, we conceived the very first month we began to try. But don't fret - today's episode isn't about fertility (entirely). Our gut health impacts our hormones. Thyroid hormones, estro

It's been a while since we've talked about endocrine disruptors, obesagens and other chemical concerns that might play a role in your weight struggle, hormonal issues and other health challenges. I've done a few episodes on the past, but this came up for me again as I was clearing out my kitchen for it's renovation. Our kitchen collection has grown since my boyfriend moved in and people come by with plastic party-ware that gets left behind. I am not here to say that making changes to your food wrap, dishware and cookware is an option for everyone or a priority for all. However, I do think it's an important conversation to have, especially for those of us who are putting time and money into hormone issues, weight issues or any other health challenge.  https://primalpotential.com/633/ What are endocrine disruptors? Most importantly, listen to today's episode in full. In short. they are exogenous chemicals that interfere with any hormone action. That could include blood sugar balance, thyroid function, fertility

Forward momentum and infinite possiblity. Two phrases and inspire that hell out of me. In today's episode I want to share with you some of the biggest lessons I've learned over 5 years building Primal Potential and 5 years improving myself. As I was outlining my thoughts for today's episode and reflecting back on the hard moments and the times that everything felt hopeless and stuck, I took a break to watch The Biggest Little Farm on my Delta flight from Boston to LA. Immediately, I saw the connection. At one point, one of the main characters says, The beautiful complexity of our land is alive with infinite possibility. Oh man. Yes. The complexity of my life is alive with infinite possibility and it's true for you, too. We have to CHOOSE forward momentum. We have to choose infinite possibility. Sure, there are other options. We can stay in the problem. We can stay in our frustrations. We can focus on things we can't change. But the fact remains that your life DOES have infinite possibility. Are you charging f

If you want to double your progress, triple your growth. Your health, your choices, your relationships and your life are only as good as you are. I made a poster for my office that says, "If you want to double your business, triple your growth. Your business is only as good are you." The other day, someone emailed me to say that they don't know what I mean by this. How does one grow? How do you triple your growth? How can you double your progress with anything related to personal growth? Today I'm diving into this idea, what it means to me, how I practice it in different areas of my life and how you can, too! https://primalpotential.com/627/ Resources: Get on the wait list for ASCEND!

Are you focused ENOUGH? Are you focused on the things that will make a difference? Most of you know I have a 5 month old labrador puppy named Rumi. He is a HANDFUL. On a recent drive to visit family, I was listening to dog psychologist Cesar Milan and was fascinated when he shared that dogs in 3rd world countries don't have the behavioral problems we see in more affluent countries. Why?  Because they are hungry.  And that got me thinking about focus and boredom. If you aren't focused on something - if you live your life kinda bored, going through the motions, THAT'S when we see maladaptive behaviors like overspending and overeating. Drama. In today's episode, we're going there. We're talking about it. We're talking about getting out of the rut and becoming HUNGRY for something more in your life! It's time to get focused and creating meaningful change in your life! Stop waiting! (Are you here looking for the info to join me Monday July 8th at 6pm ET to talk about options, opportunities and the gut/brain axis

I've pointed out to a few clients this week that they are asking the wrong questions. They are solving for the right thing. Most recently, a client said, "I can't figure out why I'm so inconsistent". Wrong question. You're solving for the wrong thing. When you ask why you're so inconsistent, you're looking for evidence to support the problem. What you should be asking is, "How can I be more consistent today?" In today's listener Q&A episode, we're diving into your questions and a few times, we're exploring how the question can be shifted to be way more empowering and effective. Questions Tackled In Today's Episode: Is there an update on EB's experimentation with CBD? How is that going? Has she noticed any changes? What does EB indulge in that IS worth it?? I don’t drink coffee, but can I do bulletproof hot tea? What are good ways to keep a mindset focused on consistent effort over time? How do I change a lifetimes worth of habits? How do I get control of my mindless eating so I can lose weight for good? H

You don't have to struggle. We can ALL create personal freedom and independence from struggles, setbacks and limitations. In fact, we must! In today's episode, we're talking stepping beyond the things you think are in your way. We're talking about opening your mind to explore new options and going beyond your comfort zone into possibility. If you feel limited by your health, your body, your finances, career or anything else, there are options. There are things you haven't considered. It's time to set yourself free!
