Have you ever felt like you were a human chemistry project? Meet Ashleigh Larsen, a real life Mixhers customer and success story. In this episode Ashleigh describes her "hormonal havoc" history. In high school she started experiencing severe cramping, heavy bleeding, painful acne, hair loss, and was diagnosed with PCOS. She went to many doctors and could not find the answers and was told that this was just a part of having a period. Over the years she had tried EVERYTHING! Unfortunately the treatments she was using were only temporary solutions, that usually ended up making her feel worse after time or once she stopped the treatment. Luckily she found Mixhers, she started using the products, and today she is sharing her experience with us.

Today Jess and Cody welcome their special guest Becca Jackson from @ifthecookiefits. Becca shares her story about how she finally made the decision to not give up, to just keep going, no matter what! That simple decision is what made THE difference for her physically and mentally.
Becca shares her journey to health and wellness, and how it all started with a shift of her mindset. She decided that the best way for her to make healthy eating and fitness a part of her daily life, she needed to approach it in a balanced and happy way. She knew it wasn't realistic for her to completely give up sugar, so instead she decided she was just going to be more mindful about how she can fit treats into her life. This is how her instagram account started and where her handle "if the cookie fits"came from. Jess and Cody loved the tips she shared and you will too.
Listen in to get inspired and to feel motivated to keep going no matter what, and to never give up on your health and happiness.

40. The 3rd Strongest Woman in the World Rebecca Rowley on Body Positivity Oct 27, 2020

Show notes

Rebecca Rowley holds the title of The Third Strongest Woman in the World! Isn't that so cool?! Jess and Cody loved having Rebecca as their guest this week. Rebecca is someone that carries herself with so much beautiful confidence, power, and she has a giant and genuine heart. This week's conversation is about the importance of feeling good in our own skin and about body positivity.
As a twelve year old Rebecca felt insecure because her body didn't fit the stereo-typical mold of what was considered "beautiful". She thought in order to be beautiful she needed to focus on becoming smaller. But, lucky for her she had a wise 7th grade PE Coach who said something to her that changed her perception and self-esteem forever. He saw the beauty and potential she held in her body and he pointed her toward open doors she never knew existed. She has worked hard for years to build her strength and to earn the title she now holds, but she's shares that she has also worked just as hard to love and accept her body.
"Beauty isn't just about the way a body looks, it's about what your body and mind can do." Isn't that a message every girl (and boy) should hear? Rebecca encourages us all to find, focus on, love and share our strength with the world.
Be sure to check out Rebecca's instagram account for inspiration! She's amazing!

39. Why Are Women Wired For Connection? with Brittany Crane Oct 20, 2020

Show notes

Did you know that women are wired for connection? It's essential for our health and happiness to connect with other women. On today's episode, Jess and Cody welcome Brittany Crane from @get_out_there_girl. She shares with us about how to make SOUL CONNECTIONS, and how there is a difference between "fitting in" and "belonging".
We love this quote by Brittany, " Friendship takes effort. Finding people you connect to and feel safe, heard, seen and valued around is worth effort. Friends might not always come easy and they might not always find you. You might need to go out and search for them. Those connections are worth going out of your comfort zones to find. They are worth being vulnerable and putting yourself out there. Because, when you find your tribe it feels like coming home. Your soul feels fed and you get to enjoy the peace that connection brings. We are wired for connection. It's part of our humanness. Don't give up on it and don't wait for it to come to you. GET OUT THERE GIRL, and go looking for it!"

Show notes

Today's episode is the continuation of the conversation Jess and Cody had with Holistic Cancer Coach, Jenny Bradley from @shrinkthemutant. On the last episode we talked about treatment options for breast cancer warriors that are not well known, and how we as family members and friends can best support our loved ones that have been diagnosed with breast cancer.
On this episode we learn from Jenny that she is considered a "young adult" cancer patient, which brings more decisions to be made when it comes to choosing which treatment options to use. She also shares that she had been on birth control for 10 years, and when she was diagnosed she learned that the longterm use of birth control increases our chances of being getting breast cancer, especially the estrogen driven breast cancer.
You'll also hear on this episode from Jenny about what treatments she used, and also what lifestyle and nutrition strategies she is incorporating to support her own body's natural healing potential.
Favorite quotes by Jenny:
"It is absolutely possible to thrive with cancer".
"Cancer is not a sentence...it's a word".

On today's episode Cody and Jess introduce us to Jenny Bradley, who is a cancer thriver and advocate from @shrinkthemutant on Instagram. Jenny shares with us her inside scoop of how we can help our friends who are going through a health crisis, like cancer, and why it's important for patients to have hope and advocate for their choices.
After Jenny was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017, she she started researching everything she could to help equip her to make confident decisions on her cancer journey. Through gathering perspectives from her medical team, including conventional and naturopathic care, Jenny has been thriving with her cancer diagnosis for nearly three years.
Because Jenny was diagnosed with cancer in her 30's, she had different choices to consider that went above and beyond fighting cancer. She had to consider the longterm side effects of her cancer treatments and how they could effect future family planning. She shares on today's episode a little about what that was like. She also shares with us which treatments have been successful for her, and gives us tips on how she has managed her cancer care team, and has felt empowered to be her own best advocate. She also shares advice for us family members or friends of cancer thrivers, on how we can best help and support.
This episode was so full of amazing information, that we invited Jenny to continue the conversation in our next episode. Be sure to tune into both!

36. Proving You Can Live A Vibrant Life After Cancer with Guest Chelsie Sep 29, 2020

Show notes

On today's episode, Jess and Cody invited special guest Chelsie from @heytherechelsie to talk about how she has proven that it's still possible to live a vibrant and full life even after cancer. Chelsie is a strong, and powerful woman and is also a childhood cancer survivor. She has been cancer free for fourteen years. She shares that although she has survived cancer, there have been many other personal struggles that she has had to face because of the effects of her cancer treatments. Currently she and her husband are dealing with infertility caused by her cancer treatments. Listen in and be inspired by Chelsie's positive outlook on her life, and how she chooses to focus on the strength she has gained through these struggles. She focuses on how grateful, grateful, grateful she is for her beautiful second-chance-life, and the opportunity she has to live it.
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month, and though it's good to be aware, it's also important to remember that childhood cancer is an everyday reality for thousands of families. Every day, 250 children around the world die from cancer. Childhood cancer is consistently underfunded at the government level, so there is a great need for private fund-raising to help support better research and treatments for children fighting cancer. Because of private fundraising, there have been many improvements in how childhood cancer is being treated through more targeted and precise therapies. Long term survival rates are continuing to increase, but unfortunately not fast enough to save the thousands of children. Chelsie encourages us to support the organization VeloSano, which is a year-round fundraising initiative in which 100% of every dollar raised supports lifesaving cancer research at Cleveland Clinic. If you are inspired by Chelsie's story and would like to help, here's a link to donate. We can make a big difference when we all help a little.

35. The Beauty of Self Confidence with Guest Blakely B. Sep 22, 2020

Show notes

What is your definition of beauty? Is it the typical definition? The one that society and the media has us believing? Did you know that studies actually show that it's a woman's confidence that makes her most attractive? A confident girl is someone who is not afraid of being herself and feels comfortable in her own skin. She radiates from within, which allows her to focus her attention on others to help others feel more comfortable in their own skin too. The world needs more confident girls, don't you think?
On today's episode, Jess and Cody have special guest joining in on this conversation. Blakely is a fashion, lifestyle and beauty blogger. She loves fashion and looking her best, but she has become very aware of how much more important it is to be a voice and advocate that promotes confidence, beauty and body positivity from within. She sees that the focus, especially on social media, is all about image. That's what we do on social media, we look at tiny images, so it's focus can be more about what we see. Blakely wants to help shift that focus, to focus more on positive attributes and contributions. As a mother of two daughters, she tries to be extra aware of the language she uses about bodies and beauty around them. She recognized that her mother set an amazing example for her, which helped mold her into a confident women. She shares the tips we all can use to also have this same influence on our daughters, and also on how we can discover our own inner beauty confidence.

34. Are You Properly Processing Your Emotions? with Guest Taryn Neves Sep 15, 2020

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

Did you know that research on the mind-body connection is gaining ground in mainstream science, and is no longer relegated to “alternative” medicine. We now know, in a deeper and more detailed way, how thoughts and feelings can affect our physical health and well-being. This is a concept that we all understand instinctively, and often relate to in our own lives, but it’s good to see the science support our shared experience.

There is a neurological, endocrine, and immunological conversation at work in every one of us that is reflective of our emotional state. While it’s very important to look at the root causes of conditions from a functional nutrition standpoint, it's also important to address the emotional aspects at the same time for long-term recovery. The emotional patterns behind officially diagnosed hormone conditions like miscarriage, infertility, ovarian cysts, fibroids, endometriosis, and other conditions are common to many, many women and very much a shared female experience. Understanding this aspect is an opportunity to have compassion for ourselves and for other women.

On today's episode Jess and Cody welcome special guest Taryn Neves, who is an advocate for empowering women with processing emotions properly. She shares her own story of what she learned while experiencing four devastating miscarriages, and infertility. It's a vulnerable conversation, but its an empowering conversation that will be helpful for many who can relate to Taryn, and her message of hope and healing.
On today's podcast two books were recommended to go deeper into this subject.
A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course On Miracles
by Marianne Williamson

You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hays
