Cooking, wildfire smoke, pollution, fragrance and mold.  Things I didn't think would ever be discussed much on the NYMM podcast, but in doing the research for this interview with Mike Feldstein, I realized, I have been remiss by not discussing the effects of these things on our overall health.  Addressing these things in our home environment can make massive change when we don't feel great.  

Mike Feldstein is an Air Quality expert and has decades of experience working in restoration and remediation.  He brings this expertise to the table along with some very interesting stories.  In a study that JASPR did recently, monitoring the group of 125 people with sleep trackers, he found that when the bedroom air was clean and filtered, the participants fell asleep quicker, had 18% deeper sleep and 25% more sleep.  Mike calls clean air "sleep fuel" and he is onto something there.  Listen in to this fascinating conversation to learn more to get better sleep and optimize your health! You can find out more about Mike Feldstein and JASPR @jasprco and at Jasper.co.  In case you missed it, JASPR is $400 off for listeners of the show until November 11, 2024 using the code LOVELY.  If you catch the show after 11/11/24, the code LOVELY will get you 10%!  Thanks Mike (I love my JASPR!)

Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine.  She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause.  

Andrea Donsky is returning to the show today for a discussion on her upcoming event - The Power of Menopause being held virtually on October 25, 2024.  She is also with us to chat about her recent experience at The Menopause Society annual conference, presenting her research to the esteemed members in attendance.  Andrea and her company wearemorphus.com collect data via free surveys that anyone can take.  Through the data collected, we are starting to get a much more clear and different picture of what actually happens at perimenopause, with our sleep in peri, and how our doctors are treating us when we present for care.  The results will surprise you (but probably not shock you).  40% of women are dismissed by their doctor without help for meno symptoms.    And there is much more to this conversation!

Andrea walks us through the top 10 symptoms of the perimenopause transition (hint:  hot flashes dont show up until number 10!) and what we can do to help with these symptoms.  Additionally, Andrea tells us there are 103 symptoms associated with menopause.  It's so much more than we were taught!  Please listen, learn and share. 

Find out more about the Morphus supplements (I adore the Fibreus and Sleepus!) Andrea mentions right here.

Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine.  She is speaking to the topics of women's health around peri-menopause and menopause.  

After breaking free from the world of Big Pharma where she saw first hand the over prescription of drugs and the glorification of disease management (instead of health), Tina Anderson and her husband Billy started a company.  A company where they vowed to make real change for health, to improve lives and helped people to manage stress.  That company is called Just Thrive.  And they are here to say, if you aren't paying attention to your gut health, you should be! So let's dive into gut health....

Tina and Dr. Lovely discuss probiotics, leaky gut, joint pain, resilience, stress management, mental health, inflammation and much more.  Tina tells us to reject what she calls the "Stress Badge of Honour" instead choosing to feel happy, peaceful.  Who knew that tending to our gut and our microbiome was the way to wellness?  

If you have gut issues, inflammation, pain, struggle with depression or anxiety, please listen to this chat!  We learned early in the chat how Tina and her team worked to create mental health via the gut.  Woah, big subject that could have massive implications.  We know that what medicine has done for mental health at menopause hasn't been all that successful, so we are open to getting new tools in the toolkit.  Please listen, learn and share.

Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine.  She is speaking to the topics of women's health around peri-menopause and menopause.  

Dr. Lovely has a chat today with Family Physician, Dr. Shana Johnston.  After working nearly 30 years in a volume based system of medicine, Shana burned out and left practice.  This also happened to correspond to her late peri-menopause.  She calls this time, the tunnel of menopause, a portal.  A graduation of sorts where we are called to come home to ourselves.  A gorgeous chat between dear friends, they discuss how spiritual practices become so much more important during the times of challenge, like perimenopause.  

Dr. Shana has a fascinating story and a deep knowledge of humanity from working many aspects of medicine in her professional career.  Delivering babies and assisting with end of life care, she sees herself as the helper in "life's airport:  arrivals and departures."  She has much to share with us about how menopause acted as a major life change agent for her and how it can do the same for you - for the better!  Menopause is ultimately a deeply spiritual transition to our higher, more authentic self, if we allow it.  

You can find out more about Dr. Shana Johnston and her workshops and online courses here.

She is presently gathering women together for her Menopause: Let's Talk About It workshop.  She is generously offering our community a 25% discount for her online courses and workshops with the code: LOVELY.

Dr. Fiona Lovely is a health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine,  functional neurology and functional medicine.  She is speaking to the topics of women's health and wellness around peri-menopause and menopause.  

Today, Dr. Lovely is speaking with Certified Financial Planner and wealth advisor, Francesca Rea.  

Francesca teaches us money mindset, success planning, and how to find those spots where you might have learned some crummy thinking around the subject of money.  We talk about how being a great custodian of our money allows the freedom of choice and wellness.  Why wasn't this taught in school?  It should be mandatory for all kids to learn this AND it's never to late for us to learn.  

One of the most powerful moments was when Francesca teaches that women can lose choice because of death, divorce or decision.  That 80% of us will find ourselves in this place in our lifetime.  How can we financially prepare for these times we never feel disempowered or cornered because of a lack of funding?  It's a critical question to a woman's well being.   

Listen in as Francesca tells us about her Live Up, Rise Up masterclass (sign up for this free masterclass here), and how through strategic planning, we can have freedom to choose!   Francesca is a leader in her field and is revolutionizing the financial world by integrating mindset, financial literacy, and advanced cash flow strategies into traditional wealth management.  We are blessed to have her teach us today. 

Please listen, learn and share.

Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine,  functional neurology and functional medicine.  Speaking to the topics of women's health around peri-menopause and menopause.  

Dr. Lovely has a chat today with Dr. Amie Hornaman, thyroid expert and functional medicine practitioner.  Dr. Amie has her own story to share of how she found herself needing to become an expert in thyroid disease.  Faced with an inadequate standard-of-care from medicine, functional medicine found her.  So many of us, the functional medicine practitioners, this is true!  We talk about what to do if you find yourself in the Synthroid box, or if you have thyroid symptoms for the first time in perimenopause.  We talk about autoimmunity - Hashimoto's thyroiditis and why it tends to show up in midlife.   We also discuss what to do if you find yourself with thyroid nodules.

Weight gain is common at perimenopause and also for women with thyroid dysfunction.  Dr. Amie shares with us her best practices for weight loss and the use of peptides. 

Lots of great info in this episode - prepare to take notes!  Please listen, learn and share.
