How To Fix The Hormones That Control Your Weight EP222 Dec 05, 2023

Nothing is more frustrating than making lifestyle changes to support your health and lose a little weight, only to find that nothing changes despite your efforts. Everywhere you look, new fad diets, shots or workout programs seem to bring about dramatic transformations. So why don't they work for you?

It may be related to a hormone imbalance.

On today's episode, Cody is going to talk about how to fix the hormones that control your weight. The dirty little secret of the billion-dollar weight loss industry is that despite what you've heard, eating less and moving more isn't always the key to weight loss success. And a lot of the time, the more you try to restrict or over-exercise, the worse things can get. While it’s true that some people’s weight loss does require a caloric deficit, achieving it is much easier said than done, especially when hormones are out of balance.

If this sounds familiar, it's time to look at the possibility that a hormonal imbalance is contributing to your weight loss resistance. And it is certainly time for the arm chair (or weight bench) medical experts to calm down with their shame and blame tactics because when it comes to women’s metabolic health and body composition—hormones are everything.

Many have been perpetually operating with high-stress levels due to work stress, health problems, financial struggles, or other pandemic-induced challenges. This, as you can imagine, really takes a toll on your overall well-being and can result in a dysregulated nervous system.

When it comes to female reproductive health, many women know the basics – estrogen and progesterone somehow work together to create a 28 day menstrual cycle every month until menopause. In reality, these hormones are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to female hormonal health.

many people don’t realize the extent of the work that these mighty molecules do day in and day out. We tend to think they only are on duty during puberty or pregnancy. When in reality, they’re working around the clock.

So today, Cody takes us through a Hormones 101 episode, so that we can better understand what hormones are and what causes them to become imbalanced.

Antibiotics, stress, and a poor diet get a lot of attention when it comes to factors that can negatively impact the health of our gut. But did you know that using hormonal birth control can be equally as damaging to our gut health?

The connection between gut health and hormonal birth control isn’t widely known. Women are so often blindly prescribed The Pill, without ever knowing the potential side effects it can have on their health. Especially the health of their gut.

Which is why Cody is diving into this topic today, to talk about a few of the main ways that using hormonal birth control can impact the health of our gut.

Breast Cancer: Awareness Into Action with Corrine Ellsworth Beaumont EP216 Oct 24, 2023

Breast cancer awareness is important, but breast cancer awareness put into action is an even more powerful prevention and treatment tool. As women, we deserve to feel empowered through easily accessible education.
We know we are supposed to do monthly breast exams, but do we all feel confident about what that should actually look like? What are we looking and feeling for? What are the 12 signs and symptoms that we should all be aware of? What healthy nutrition and lifestyle strategies can we implement to help support prevention and get us through treatment if we are diagnosed with breast cancer? What effective tools are available for us? There's so much for us to learn, it can sometimes feel so overwhelming.
On today's episode, Cody has invited guest Corrine Ellsworth Beaumont, Co-Founder and CEO of Know Your Lemons, to help us feel less overwhelmed and to instead help us feel equipped to be our own best health advocates.
As the CEO of Know Your Lemons, a non-profit saving lives through creative breast health education for early detection, she's been busy inspiring people to take charge of their breast health in the hopes of increasing the odds of early breast cancer detection.

When discovered in its earliest stage, breast cancer survival rates are nearly 100%. When symptoms chronically go unnoticed, however, the odds of overcoming late stage breast cancer are nearly insurmountable. That’s the vital difference between early and late detection. And, most often, it’s a distinction that comes down to knowledge and education — which is where Corrine’s organization gets its hands dirty creating powerful designs that educate, empower, and transcend.
Mixhers and Know Your Lemons have joined forces for a second year. Together we have created a free ebook available to download and we are committed to raise money to support early detection for breast cancer. You can help! Mixhers will be donating 5% of all Mixhers sales from October 23 - October 29, 2023.

28 Days vs 24 Hours – A Big Way Women and Men Differ Day to Day EP215 Oct 17, 2023

Some weeks you’re on - you’re crushing it at work, you’re killing it in the gym, and you have energy after work to meet up with friends or to engage in leisure activities you love. But other weeks? Not so much. You have to drag yourself out of bed, you feel like you’re phoning it in at work and during workouts, and after work, you crash on the sofa and stare at the ceiling.

If that describes you, you’re probably (and rightfully) frustrated by these swings in mood, productivity, and energy. And being the wickedly intelligent woman that you are, you’ve probably set out to try to fix them.

Maybe you’ve tried to journal or a to-do list app. Maybe you bought an inspiring day planner, hoping that the beautiful pages would zap you into action. Maybe you read one of the million books out there on time management or productivity secrets. . But none of those things have worked—or will work in the future.

Why?

Because traditional time management strategies don’t work for women. On today's episode, Cody talks about how these external “solutions” force us to follow the 24-hour circadian cycle and they ignore a woman’s natural, 28-day hormone clock. We’ve been taught to plan our lives on the 24-hour circadian schedule, which works well for men—but not for women.

With most time management systems, we’re expected to make to-do lists, check things off as the day goes by, and then wake up the next day and repeat. Every day, every 24 hours, the same thing. But when women are forced to function as if their natural 28-day hormone clock doesn’t exist, we miss out on the superpower granted to us by our hormones.
