457. Focus On The Big Picture! Oct 03, 2022

Show notes

It's so easy to lose sight of the big picture when you are focused on making changes in your health. "Am I making enough progress?" "Am I seeing results fast enough?" can be some questions that we ask when we get stuck focused on the small scale changes.

Looking at things from a bigger perspective can help with the frustration of slow changes or small hang ups day to day. This mindset shift can make a huge difference when staying consistent and seeing long term results.

455. Thyroid Issues and Genetics Sep 26, 2022

Show notes

Thyroid issues stem from numerous factors, but what about genetics? Thyroid issues are often hereditary! As of right now, there is no genetic code that indicates a thyroid issue, but we see patterns throughout families.

Chances are, if you have someone in your family that struggles with thyroid, you may be at risk for the same issues. That being said, if thyroid issues are not apparent in your family, don't rule them out! After each of my pregnancies, I discovered thyroid imbalance issues however I had never heard of anyone in my family having any thyroid problems.

Testing your levels is the best way to stay on top of thyroid problems, regardless of family history.
