376: The Science of Mindset with Dr. Josh Axe

Hey! It is Natalie Jill! Today on Midlife Conversations I am chatting with Dr. Josh Axe, DC, DNM, CNS, about the theme of his new book, Think This Not That, because it ties into everything I teach about mindset. Listen – mindset is THE missing link to success in life. I have worked with over 250,000 women in transforming their lives, bodies, and minds and it all comes down to Decision, Vision (the mindset piece), and Action. The gap in what is missing from what we have NOW and getting where we WANT to be is our mindset and our beliefs around what is possible for us. If you ask anyone who has had a transformation working with me, the common denominator will be that they DECIDED and got VERY clear on what it is they want for themselves – and believed that they could! In this episode, you will learn: The importance of mindset in healing What is the placebo and Nocebo effect? Discussion on ADHD and learning 'disabilities' Impact of both Positive and Negative Beliefs Learn more about Dr. Josh Axe at: Dr. Josh Axe IG: https://www.instagram.com/drjoshaxe/?hl=en Dr. Josh Axe Website: https://joshaxe.com/ Get the Digestion Stack I carry with me daily HERE Order his new book, Ancient Remedies: Secrets to Healing with Herbs, Essential Oils, CBD, and the Most Powerful Natural Medicine in History now.

375: Amalgam, Fluoride, Root Canals and All Things DENTAL Affecting How We Age with NYC Smile Design

Hey! It is Natalie Jill! Today on Midlife Conversations I am chatting with Dr. Ramin Tabib and Dr. Elisa Mello about amalgam fillings. This old and outdated tooth restoration technique from the 1800s uses mercury, one of the most toxic substances for humans. While it's banned in some countries, it's still allowed in the US, likely because the American Dental Association (ADA) was built around it. In the past, barbers often replaced amalgam fillings, creating an economic need to protect the industry and ensure dentists had work. If the ADA were to admit that amalgams are harmful, it would lead to a flood of lawsuits. Additionally, because the metal in the fillings expands differently than teeth do, it causes tiny cracks, leading to more mercury leakage, tooth fractures, and decay. This sets us up for even more dental work in the future. In this episode, you will learn: All About Amalgam Fillings Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM) Crowns The connection between dental health and overall wellness Advancements in dental implant materials Should you be using fluoride Pros & Cons of Root Canals Whether or not to get veneers and MORE!

370: Optimizing our Health and Digestion with BiOptimzers

Hey! It is Natalie Jill! Today on Midlife Conversations I am chatting with Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart from BIOptimizers to discuss the importance of factors like HCL, probiotics, and more in our diets. Wade, once a vegetarian, and Matt, originally on keto, had their paths converge. Despite popular belief that diet reigns supreme, what truly matters is understanding how nutrition functions. A critical assumption prevails among nutritionists: that everything consumed is effectively utilized by the body. However, this is far from reality. Even with the highest quality food, effective breakdown and absorption are essential for nutrients to enter the bloodstream and provide fuel. In this episode, you will learn: Optimal health is about what we DIGEST, not just what we eat The importance of gut health and digestion in midlife issues Why BiOptimizers takes gut health and digestion so seriously The concept of enzymes and probiotics in aiding digestion Misconceptions around bloating and gas Learn more about Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart at: Matt Gallant IG: https://www.instagram.com/mattgallant/?hl=en Matt Gallant Website: http://mattgallant.tv/3x/ Wade Lightheart IG: https://www.instagram.com/wadelightheart/?hl=en Get the Digestion Stack I carry with me daily HERE Watch this episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://www.youtube.com/@nataliejillfitness Read the Blog about the episode HERE: https://www.midlifeconversations.com/blog/ Want to listen in on a LIVE recording of Midlife Conversations?

She then educates you on your options for hormone therapy so that you can work with a hormone provider (either your own or one of ours) from a position of knowledge and clarity instead of fear and confusion.
