Today, we are diving into the often overlooked but crucial topic of how societal pressures can impact our self-perception, especially as we age and approach menopause. Modern media perpetuates unrealistic standards of youth and beauty, which can have damaging effects on our self-esteem, correlating youth with our true value.
Youthfulness is often glorified in the media while completely dismissing the natural and beautiful process of aging. This cultural obsession with staying young can lead many women to feel disconnected from their bodies and fearful of the natural aging process and its connotation with death.
Women should be encouraged to honor their bodies, understand their unique hormonal rhythms, and embrace the natural changes that come with aging. True well-being goes beyond just physical health—it involves a deeper connection with ourselves and a commitment to living in harmony with nature.
I’m so excited to share this episode with you, and I know you’re going to glean so much wisdom and a new outlook on embracing the aging process and menopause. Tune in today!
In this episode:
[04:17] Today’s episode surrounds the topic of aging and the seasonal shifts that happen as we age.
[07:15] The journey of dying to our youth requires shifting our focus back to our spiritual journey's.
[13:03] The truth behind estrogen and the hormones in our bodies and throughout our cycles.

Today’s episode is so insightful and amazing and I am very excited to share it with you! My guest, Martine De Luna, is a coach who supports women to respect the masculine that we see in men, in life, and in God so that they can return to their feminine nature with their spouses.
Martine and I dive into so many of the taboo topics that we experience during our walk through finding our true feminine nature. We touch on the damaging messaging of purity culture and how our biology already has systems in place to protect us and to help us be very selective in finding a mate. We have turned away from the true biology of our feminine nature, and in that, we have missed the wiring of our biology and how it can protect us.
We also dive into what it means to be hormonally male and how our body and our biology will automatically flip our hormones to put us in a masculine place with our hormones during the appropriate times in our lives, such as during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We, as women, need to understand when our biology is making these shifts so we can have a more feminine awareness of why we experience hormonal and behavioral shifts and how it impacts our spouses.
This episode is full of so much wisdom and insight and I am so excited to share it with you. Tune in today!
In this episode:
[00:01:54] Welcome my guest in this episode, Martine De Luna.
[00:08:04] What does true biological femininity look like?
[00:17:32] What is the need of the masculine?
[00:19:12] The roles of masculinity and femininity in nature.
[00:28:38] Martine shares her view on purity culture.
[00:37:15] What does it mean for a woman to be hormonally masculine?
[00:47:27] What is the true definition of help-meet in Christianity?
[00:56:07] Martine's message for women who feel selfish by prioritizing their femininity in their relationship.
[01:01:45] Why are women resentful of their feminine power?
[01:06:17] The role of submissiveness and sex in our relationships.
[01:08:25] Women are not living in biological harmony in the nuclear family. We need help.

Celebrating the 50th episode today, so a big thank you to all of my listeners who have stuck with me throughout this journey as Fully Nourished is seeking to continually improve how we view female physiology on the planes of the physical, the mental, and the spiritual.
We are continuing our hormone series today, and we are going to take a deeper dive into plant foods, phytoestrogens, and functional fibers. I’m noticing another pendulum swing where people are beginning to over-demonize plants.
There are nuanced examples where women are demonstrating benefits from cutting plants out of their diets, and my fear is that it will become the new fad diet that will push people back into the Carnivore diet, which we’ve already discussed, isn’t ideal, especially for the female physiology.
It is critical that we learn to live within the rhythm of our bodies and understand that the spectrum of what our bodies need will shift with the seasons. Instead of approaching our nourishment from a state of fight or flight, we need to sit with our bodies, rest, listen, and pay attention to truly give our bodies what they need.
In this episode, we really dive deep into nourishment and the roles that phytoestrogens play in this process. There’s so much more to the story than what you see on social media and in all the crazes that demonize seeds, seed oils, and soybeans. I can’t wait to share it with you and I know you’re going to love this episode. Tune in today!
In this episode:
[00:46] Welcome to Episode 50 of The Fully Nourished Podcast!
[02:43] We continue our hormone series today where we talk more about plant foods, phytoestrogens, and functional fibers.
[10:28] The three components that the human body needs to gain from our foods.
[16:24] Pay attention to the rhythm of your body to provide you with the nourishment you need in a specific season.
[23:44] The difference between symptom suppression and true healing.
[26:10] The taboo of phytoestrogens.
[31:28] The breakdown of phytoestrogens in common foods and the role they play in the body.
[33:56] Is there a link between estrogen and androgeny?
[41:11] You have my permission to stop being afraid of any specific food group as long as it supports your nourishment.
[43:30] Thanks for joining me on the Fully Nourished Podcast today!

Thank you for your patience while I recovered from a cold over the past few weeks. I’m a firm believer that we get sick when we need it, and the recovery and downtime are exactly what I needed, but I’m on the road to recovery, and we are jumping back into our hormone series with a Q&A on Estrogen in today’s episode.
The story of estrogen begins in the 1960s when hormonal birth control comes on the scene and has this big push encouraging women to supplement with estrogen to increase their femininity. It is not uncommon to see what we are currently seeing in the menopause crowd today. However, we are leaving out a crucial component of the impact of hormones in our body, resulting from appropriate progesterone levels.
Progesterone is what keeps our estrogen in check and keeps us from tipping the scales into an estrogen imbalance. Now, if you find yourself in a state of estrogen dominance, there are ways that you can tip the scales back in your favor, and I cover many of these practices in today’s episode, so be sure to tune in for those tips!
We are just scratching the surface of estrogen in the female body, and we take a deeper dive in today’s episode. You won’t want to miss the insight I share today, so be sure to tune in to see where estrogen imbalance might be occurring in your life or how you can avoid estrogen imbalance.
In this episode:
[00:00:47] Welcome back to The Fully Nourished Podcast!
[00:01:32] We are continuing our hormone series with a Q&A on Estrogen.
[00:14:13] The hormones that keep estrogen in check.
[00:18:40] What are the bad estrogens, what impacts are they having, and how do we combat estrogen dominance or imbalance?
[00:35:24] What are phytoestrogens, and how do they impact estrogen in our bodies?
[00:42:58] Can estrogen contribute to girls getting their periods early?
[00:45:56] Can high estrogen cause painful periods?
[00:48:35] Is DIM worth taking to detoxify estrogen?
[00:53:26] Is hormone replacement therapy a bad thing?

Today, we continue our journey through the importance that our menstrual cycle claims in the spiritual facet of our lives. Not only does this cycle provide us with significant information about our health and our hormones, but it is also the key to evolving to a deeper level of understanding about our true selves and our connection with the divine.
My guest today is Emily Sims, who works with women to understand the phases of their menstrual cycle and how it is the portal to spirituality and self-trust. Our society has taught us to neglect our body's needs in so many ways. Emily helps women to understand that by being in tune with our menstrual cycles, we can be more in tune with our bodies and thus learn to trust ourselves on a deeper level.
This episode is full of wisdom and insight into the cycle our body goes through each month and how the seasons and phases of surrounding areas of our lives overlay with that cycle. There is so much to learn from trusting ourselves and surrendering to the seasons we experience in our lives. I know you’re going to love this episode. Tune in today!
In this episode:
[00:03:28] Our guest today is Emily Sims, who helps women connect with their creator by using the seasons of their menstrual cycle.
[00:07:00] Emily shares her experience as a missionary in China and the insight she gained from the Chinese culture.
[00:13:37] What is Rose Reclamation?
[00:17:31] The changes we make are because we want to know God more.
[00:24:40] When Emily stepped away from the organized church, she truly began to experience the spirituality that she was seeking.
[00:30:15] The search for truth can feel like unraveling or like chaos while you search for balance.
[00:35:47] How do our bodies communicate with us, and how can we use our cycle to understand our bodies?
[00:43:57] Getting in tune with the small surrender of your menstruation can set you up for the spiritual surrender and open the doors to self-trust.
[00:55:10] How to discover the deep beliefs you have about yourself and where the Gene Keys play a role.
[01:02:25] Where can you find Emily Sims and how can you work with her?

When discussing the menstrual cycle, we obviously have hormones that play roles in our bodies and in our cycles. However, we have to look at all these hormones as a unit and consider how they interact and impact each other to truly understand what’s happening within our bodies.
We’ve lost touch with the history that coincides beautifully with the activity that happens in our bodies and how our cycles are so intertwined with our creator. The menstrual cycle is much like a breath, inhale, and exhale. It represents the movement of energy.
The symptoms that occur during our cycle can tell us much more than which phase of our cycle we are in. Our bodies speak to us and it’s trying to tell us the things we are yearning to know, but we’re just not ready to listen yet.
There is so much that we can learn from a process that our bodies go through every month if we are willing to open our ears and listen to what our bodies are trying to say. I know you’re going to love this episode. Tune in today to hear more about this topic, and be sure to join us next week as we dive more deeply into progesterone and how crucial it is to our cycles.
In this episode:
[00:46] Welcome back to The Fully Nourished Podcast!
[02:27] The role that hormones play in the brain.
[05:30] Our feminine experience and the hormone disorders we face.
[08:37] I share some background on the spiritual history of our Mother.
[16:14] The menstrual cycle as a breath and as seasons.
[22:55] Measurement of the main hormones throughout our cycle and the role they play with each other.
[30:52] The mechanics of our hormone levels during the follicular phase and during ovulation.
[34:22] What our hormones are doing during ovulation and moving into the luteal phase.
[39:07] Next week, we’re taking a deep dive into progesterone in our bodies and where it plays in our cycle. Be sure to join us!

Our physical bodies are a direct reflection of our energetic rhythms, and that includes our menstrual cycles. This episode kicks off a series in which we will discuss the nuances of the menstrual cycle and its role in many areas of our lives. To truly understand the phases of our menstrual cycle, we have to first understand that it is way bigger than just a monthly cycle.
Menstruation is linked to many cycles in life that operate within different rhythms. And what we often fail to realize is that our menstrual cycle is a direct reflection of what we need on an energetic level. So instead of diving into the hormones and the data and the dos and don’ts for each phase of your cycle, I’m talking more about the energetics behind our cycle today and how our feminine energy is defined by life, death, and rebirth.
We must learn to listen to our bodies and adjust our energy to step into our full feminine radiance. It begins with nurturing ourselves. Tune in today to hear more about the energetics surrounding your menstrual cycle, and be sure to come back next week as we dive more into this series!
In this episode:
[00:46] Welcome back to The Fully Nourished Podcast!
[02:28] We’re starting a series on the menstrual cycle this week.
[05:17] The Five “I”s of Feminine Wisdom.
[10:13] We are made in the image of God, which means we are made in the image of the Mother.
[19:03] The rhythm of our menstrual cycle goes far beyond the data points and the hormones involved.
[25:08] Our cycles are representative of the life, death, and rebirth cycle. It is representative of what is and what is to come.
[31:36] The same concepts that make up our menstrual cycle can teach us how to move through the different rhythms in our lives.
[35:52] Thanks for joining me this week. Tune in next week for more on this topic!

There is so much power in words and within our minds that we often overlook the core concepts that drive the change we desire to see in ourselves. To be able to tap into this power and these dynamics, we have to understand the masculine and feminine parts of our minds, and how they feed each other.
The conscious and subconscious minds reflect the masculine and feminine parts of ourselves. The feminine is your subconscious mind, and the masculine is your conscious mind. The subconscious mind is influenced by the actions of the conscious mind.
When we seek to change our perfectionistic or all-or-nothing mindset tendencies, we have to remember that action will always be the last step. We have to begin with changing our words, thoughts, and energy. These are the predecessors to any action you can take because action is the fruit of these changes.
