• 52. The German New Medicine perspective on PCOS & other women’s health concerns with Abigail Puccioni
    Jul 31 2024

    Both conventional and alternative medicine view symptoms as bad, a sign of imbalances and needing to be fixed. But what if your symptoms were actually GOOD and a sign that you’re healing?

    What if the root cause of your symptoms has nothing to do with you not eating perfectly, but rather, a highly intelligent adaptive response to ensure your survival?

    Our guest Abigail Puccioni, a German New Medicine Educator offers us a transformative perspective on health and disease that takes the fear, overwhelm and pressure out of healing.

    She gives us a beginner crash course on what German New Medicine is, and takes us through the five foundational principles of GNM, which you can use as a lens to understand the real biological root of your chronic symptoms and how to approach healing differently.

    Today we discuss:

    • The basics of German New Medicine and how it flips the script on conventional and alternative medicine

    • I share a personal story on how GNM helped me solve the mystery of “random” pelvic and bladder pain I was experiencing for months

    • The emotional and biological root cause of women’s reproductive health concerns like PCOS, yeast infections and period pain

    • Questions to ask yourself to gain clarity on the biological root cause of your symptoms

  • 49. Hack the System: HR-Approved Cycle-Aligned Work Schedule with Olivia Bolt, Somatic Healer & Mindset Coach
    Apr 21 2024

    Did you know the 9-5 work schedule is based on the natural 24-hour cycle of male hormones? Women’s hormones are not the same everyday, so what’s a menstruating woman to do with a 40-hour a week job schedule that expects us to behave like men? Breaking news! You can advocate for your cycle and politely demand that your hormones be respected. In this progressive talk, Olivia Bolt explains how she got her corporate job to allow flexibility in her work schedule in order to prioritize her menstrual health. Embark on this journey with us as we challenge traditional beliefs in pursuit of holistic well-being.

    Plus, Olivia shares the story of how she had no idea a tampon was lost inside her for 6 months, and the profound healing journey that came afterwards.

    ​​Olivia Bolt is a mix between a Somatic Healer and a Mindset Coach with many years of experience in the field coaching others and a lifetime of experience working on herself. Her methodology is called Empowered Patterns, and it focuses on the correlation between our gut-brain axis, our beliefs, and why it’s so hard to do the things we say we want to do for ourselves. She has recently gone through a traumatic spiritual awakening and is here to share her story in an effort to help others.

    Today we discuss:

    • Olivia’s health challenges and her incredible "lost tampon story"!

    • Her transformation from struggle to acceptance

    • How to advocate for your well-being at work

    • The importance of self-compassion and somatic awareness in the healing process

    • Empowering yourself to challenge the status quo

    • Why self-advocacy is necessary to prevent burnout

  • 47. Feminine Archetypes Throughout the Menstrual Cycle with Megan Hayne
    Feb 18 2024

    Are you showing up as the maiden or the prostitute? Throughout our cycle, we can show up as different feminine archetypes. The Maiden is the young girl in us who wants to take on the world and do everything she wants to do. The shadow side of this archetype is the prostitute, the girl who says yes to everything and gives up all her energy to others. Come explore the feminine archetypes with us in this podcast as we dive deep into our inner seasons with their archetypes and shadow sides.

    Megan Hayne is a mother, womb holder, and village facilitator of menstrual sisterhood circles. She weaves mythology with our menstrual cycle to help us understand ourselves better through the feminine archetypes. Megan encourages us to be creative and create our own names for these archetypes as she has done.

    Today, we discuss:

    • What is an archetype and how archetypes relate to our cyclical nature

    • How Feminine archetypes show up as our inner seasons:

      • Spring is our Maiden phase

      • Summer is our Mother phase

      • Autumn is our Wild woman phase

      • Winter is our Oracle phase

    • How to ask for help when you are in need

    • How to work with the shadow sides of these archetypes and examples of how to move through the emotions that arise
