After a hiatus since May 2023, I'm recording this on the last day of the year, feeling reflective and ready to share my journey with you.\n\nLast year, I shifted my focus to supporting women chiropractors, which was a necessary \"zig\" for my personal and professional growth.

Now, as I \"zag\" back, I'm excited to broaden my scope to support heart-centered women entrepreneurs and leaders.\n\nThis podcast has undergone several changes, including a new name and direction.

Are you a heart centered woman leader, entrepreneur and visionary who has found yourself burnt out in pursuit of your dreams, achieving success on paper but still feeling unfulfilled, or realizing following all the should’s and supposed to’s of the business world has left you with a business and life you don’t really want or love? This is the podcast for you.&nbsp;I’m your host Dr. Alex Swenson-Ridley, and I’m on a mission to help heart centered women leaders and entrepreneurs called to serve the world in a big way alter their experience from one of sacrifice and burnout to unadulterated joy and freedom.If we haven’t met yet, I’m a formerly burnt out chiropractor and 7 figure practice owner known for setting figurative fire to the business that at the height of it’s success became like a prison to me. I learned a lot of hard lessons in the process, including healing from an eventual bankruptcy with that practice as the universe tried to get me to pay attention, layers of trauma from the career and business I was supposed to love, and hitting a rock bottom that ultimately led me to embark on a deep healing journey.On the other side I found my ability to RISE into an even more powerful and connected version of myself.&nbsp;I also learned I am not alone in my experience, and Reimagined was born as the show to support other amazing women going through their own uncomfortable growth edges.&nbsp;&nbsp;Here we give you the inspiration and permission to break all the rules, tap into your intuition, zone of genius and creativity to give you the confidence to do things differently. You will learn tools and hear stories that will inspire you to rejuvenate your spirit, innovate how you lead and do business, strengthen your core identity and connect deeply to yourself so that you emerge as the next powerful version of you on the other side.&nbsp;Reimagined isn’t just a podcast, it’s also the launching point of a movement I refer to as the RISE. To support the women who listen to this show and who are committed to their own RISE, I host a&nbsp; free community of like minded women off of social media on Circle as a safe space to discuss and implement what you learn here, and most importantly not go it alone.&nbsp;You’re in the right place if you have the courage to confront what you’ve been told are the keys to success and challenge the status quo. Are you ready to Reimagine your life and business to create what you actually want? And join a community of other women leaders and entrepreneurs doing the same? Let’s dive in!

Today's conversation is one of those less talked about things in the world of leadership and business...how do we show up fully as ourselves in our roles, including our spiritual side?I'm joined by Lindsay Sutherland, a friend and fellow podcast lover who left a 6 figure career in a male dominated industry to follow her dreams. Today we're unpacking lessons learned from our previous careers and roles as leaders and managers in our organizations struggling to show up fully self expressed in our roles without having to stifle a part of ourselves.We also give some examples of powerful ways to start difficult conversations and dive into using DISC profiles as a tool to build and communicate with your team.To connect with Lindsay visit https://www.lindsaysutherland.com/To learn more about the work Dr. Alex does with chiropractors visit www.revitalizedc.com

Have you given yourself permission to succeed? It could be at anything. Business, your career, your health, in relationships.&nbsp;Personally I recently had a huge realization that I've been punishing myself for things that happened in the past in my business. And I'm finally ready and giving myself permission to stop living into my past and leave it where it belongs.Today's episode is a deep dive into hwo we start to do just that.&nbsp;

How do you pivot or leap out of career burnout? We all have our reasons for staying in a career or continuing to pursue a business that is not really serving our fulfillment and well being.Today's conversation with Suzanne Monroe is a deep dive into how you lead the change, whether it's in staying where you're at or pivoting to what's next, the change begins with each of us.The change is also required to not continually repeat the patterns of burnout that will inevitably follow if you haven't taken the time to identify them.This conversation is an absolute must listen, especially if you're feeling burned out in your career.Suzanne Monroe was working a high pressure job that didn’t align with her personal beliefs, where the corporate culture was to sleep under your desk instead of going home to rest and recharge that led her to experience career burnout. Simultaneously, a close loved one was diagnosed with a health crisis and every doctor told them there was nothing traditional medicine could do to help. This is where her holistic health journey began. She then poured herself into researching, reading, and ultimately helping her loved one turn the corner towards healing, sparking her passion for wellness and inspiring her to leave corporate America and traditional healthcare behind her.Suzanne, the formerly burnt out corporate America employee, is now doing what she loves as the Founder of The International Association of Wellness Professionals (IAWP), Director of the IAWP’s Holistic Wellness Coach Certification and Training Program, and author. She aims to help people reawaken their purpose and find a career they love, as well as live a healthy and happy lifestyle. Last year alone, she helped reach 11.5 Million people with the message of holistic wellness and living a life you love.

Divorce is one of those things that can shatter your self confidence, leave you feeling guilty and ashamed and can wreak havoc on your mental and physical health.&nbsp;On this episode my guest, Certified Divorce Recovery Coach Leah Marie Mazur and I discuss how to walk through the journey of divorce and come out empowered on the other side, no matter the circumstance.&nbsp;Drawing on her own expereince, Leah Marie shares the steps to becoming empowered through divorce as we both share our own journey's and experiences that have led us to much healthier and happier marriages today.Leah Marie specializes in helping women release guilt, shame and feelings of failure so that they can find acceptance, rebuild their self confidence, and thrive after divorce. She also provides a safe, judgment free community for women rebuilding after divorce in her private Facebook group called Divorced and EmpoweredEpisode Transcript:[01:07]&nbsp;Dr. Alex:&nbsp;Hello. Welcome back to the show. I'm your host. Dr. Alex winson. ridley. I'm really excited to be joined today by leah Marie. I realized I didn't ask her last name, but mazor, who is a certified divorce recovery coach for women and the founder of mindfully Ready, LLC. She specializes in helping women release guilt, shame and feelings of failure so that they can find acceptance, rebuild their self confidence, and thrive after divorce. She also provides a safe, judgment free community for women rebuilding after divorce in her private Facebook group called divorced and Empowered. So, leah, welcome to the show.[01:46]&nbsp;Leah Marie:&nbsp;Thank you. Thanks for having me.[01:48]&nbsp;Dr. Alex:&nbsp;Yeah, I'm excited to it's weird to say I'm excited to have this conversation, but I think it's one that is needed for many of us. I know I have been through divorced, I'm in my second marriage, and fortunately that's all going well. But many of my clients and many of our listeners have either been through or are in that place of potentially looking at the experience of divorce. Maybe to start off, I usually start with just kind of asking your story and how you have arrived at doing what you do and then we'll flow from there.[02:28]&nbsp;Leah Marie:&nbsp;Yeah, I'll go back a little ways. When I was 16, I actually witnessed my mom have an asthma attack in our home and pass away, and she was only 41 years old. And then only five years later, my dad died of pancreatic cancer. So by 21 years old, my parents were gone. I'm an only child, and I really kind of had to just figure everything out on my own. And what I didn't realize at the time was those traumatic losses caused really deep seated abandonment issues. And I had this really big fear of being alone. So I coped with that by basically becoming a serial monogamist. I just hopped from relationship to relationship like they were my buoys to keep me afloat. I just didn't know any other way. And I was afraid to be alone. I didn't know how to do that. So after my second divorce, that was my wake up call where I was like, okay, leah, obviously there's a pattern here. There's something going on. If you really want to find happiness, you're going to have to figure this out. So that's when I faced my fear of being alone, I had to learn how to stand on my own 2ft and I did all that work on myself that really I should have done years before. The therapy, meditation, journaling, gratitude, practice, I mean, all the things to find myself again, rebuild my self confidence and know my worth and be able to feel confident just being alone. And so that changed everything. So I essentially was able to take all of those tools and strategies and create a framework for other women so that they can after divorce, they can learn how to embrace their independence and rebuild their self confidence and know their worth without having to go through all of that trial and error, essentially, that I...

Have you ever had that moment where you suddenly realize that a career, a relationship or a direction you're going in life isn't right? Maybe you've invested decades, time, energy, money and finally have the epiphany that you're not exactly on the right path. Today, we're unpacking how to navigate this moment in a powerful way that allows for a leap, even when it's scary and you don't quite know what you're leaping into. My own recent experience is creating a pivot in the lens and container in which I work with women from health into leadership, personal & professional growth and development. As I pivot, I would absolutely love to pick your brain on your biggest challenges as a female leader. If you're willing, I'd love to have a Leadership Coffee Chat with you. Here's a link to connect : https://calendly.com/emergentwomen/leadership Connect with me on LinkedIn @dralexridley Connect on our website: www.selflesssyndrome.show Episode Transcript: Dr. Alex: Welcome to the Selfless Syndrome Show, where we help women executives and entrepreneurs rise through Adversity, connect to their intuition, transform their hormones, and get their energy back. This is the show where we go beyond asking how do I treat my symptoms? And instead examine how do I truly heal, transform my hormones, and change my life? We are here to bring you outside the box ideas, interviews, and action steps focused in the areas of health, relationships, and our career, all three of which have a huge impact on our hormones. My name is Dr. Alex Swenson Ridley. I'm your host, mentor, speaker, author, entrepreneur, and thought leader on hormones and work life balance for high achieving women. I'm also a wife, mom, and stepmom to four boys and a verbal. And I'm a woman whose own life experience and journey from Adversity and the resulting hormonal chaos to finding hormonal harmony has led to me helping other women break with convention and find the tools they need to not just survive, but thrive. Ready to dive in? Let's go. [01:05] Dr. Alex: Have you ever had that moment where you realize, oh ****, I'm not doing the right thing or I'm not in the right relationship or whatever trajectory your life has been on is not the one that you really honestly are supposed to be on? If we haven't met, I'm Dr. Alex. Welcome back to The Show, a show that is probably going to change names here soon. But I wanted to unpack this moment where we feel the call to pivot because I've been through several of them in my life and just recently had a new one occur. And so I'm going to just kind of share what that journey has been like for me and invite you to look for or to tune into, especially if you've felt this call before and maybe have ignored it. Because pivots are scary and sometimes they are outside of what we have thought or identified ourselves at for our entire lives. And they can be something that we want to ignore because it's easier and stepping into the unknown is really uncomfortable. And I've had moments happen like this one in my marriage, one, my first marriage, one in I built actually a seven figure business and realized it wasn't what I wanted to be doing. And then I again in business just this last week had another moment where it was like, I'm not doing it's. It's not that I don't want to be an entrepreneur and don't want to be in business, but I definitely have not been doing the right thing. And in realizing that, I realized that's why business has been a struggle and I haven't really gotten things off the ground. And I've stopped doing a bunch of things that didn't feel authentically, like fitting what I me and what I wanted to be doing and creating. But I hadn't really taken the time to slow down and actually get to the root of...

Do you feel frustrated by the lack of options available for your health, and constantly feeling like it's too hard to both get help and feel good again?Today I'm joined by former nurse turned Human Design and trauma informed health and business coach Amy Arner for a deep dive into things we don't usually talk about in healthcare. Spirituality and it's role in healing. How it's all connected. How burnout comes about. And the questions and starting point for listeners to start healing deeply by looking outside the box.Amy Arner otherwise known as "The Boss Mama" is a seasoned Registered Nurse, wife and boy mom who became a Certified Trauma Informed Life + Business Coach, Hypnotherapist & Human Design guru in order to help other multi passionate women break FREE from the generational patterns, beliefs + habits robbing them of the peace, confidence & SUCCESS they crave in their careers, relationships + Motherhood.Helpful links from this episode:Amy's Website: lovelylifetribeco.comDr. Alex's Website: www.emergent-women.comInfo on the brand new Emergent Women Circle: www.emergentwomencircle.comEpisode Transcript:[00:01] Dr. Alex: Today's conversation is one of those that transpires when you find two kindred spirits who have similar but different journeys and have learned a lot of stuff along the way. Today I am joined by Amy Arner, who is otherwise known as the Boss Mama. She's a seasoned registered nurse, wife and boy mom who became a certified trauma, informed life and business coach, hypnotherapist and human design guru in order to help other multipassionate women break free from the generational patterns, beliefs, and habits, robbing them of peace, confidence, and success they crave in their relationships, careers, and motherhood. And I have to say, our conversation is one that I hope serves and inspires you on many levels. We get into things that we don't normally talk about in the healing space, including spirituality and inner work, and how you really start to make that shift away from looking outside yourself to first looking within yourself, which, if you've been listening to the show for long enough, you know, I argue is key to us really, truly healing.

My name is Dr. Alex Swenson Ridley. I'm your host, mentor, speaker, author, entrepreneur, and thought leader on hormones and work life balance for high achieving women. I'm also a wife, mom, and stepmom to four boys and a verbal. And I'm a woman whose own life experience and journey from Adversity and the resulting hormonal chaos to finding hormonal harmony has led to me helping other women break with convention and find the tools they need to not just survive, but thrive. Ready to dive in? Let's go.[02:18] Dr. Alex: Hello.[02:19] Amy Arner: Welcome back to the show. Amy.[02:21] Dr. Alex: I'm so glad you're here.[02:23] Amy Arner: Thank you. I am so excited. Cannot wait to just dive into this with you. It's...

How strong is your support network of close friends that you can be open and real with? Personally, this is an area I've struggled with a lot as a career driven woman. Community is also something that plays a huge role in our over all health and hormone balance.&nbsp;This episode unpacks why community is so important to our hormones and gives you some things to think about to strengthen your own community. I also share some new things I'm working on and am really excited about because they focus on community at the core of our healing journey.Links mentioned in this episode:The Emergent Women Circle-www.emergentwomencircle.com&nbsp;Subscribe to Dr. Alex: https://emergent-women.ck.page/0b2e48c7cb&nbsp;Episode Transcript:[00:00] So I don't know about you, but I have struggled through my adult life to maintain close friendships and relationships and community among other women.[00:11] And I've been thinking about this a.[00:13] Lot lately because this is also a significant part of having balance and having our hormones work. And we're going to unpack what that means today. But I also think that for those of us who identify as high achievers, we're driven and we're always after the next thing. That's a lot of what being a high achiever is about. It can be hard to prioritize friendship because we're already stretched so thin in our careers and in our personal and family lives. And so it's something that gets missed.[00:52] Welcome to The Selfless Syndrome Show, where we help women executives and entrepreneurs rise through Adversity, connect to their intuition, transform their hormones, and get their energy back. This is the show where we go beyond asking how do I treat my symptoms? And instead examine how do I truly heal, transform my hormones, and change my life? We are here to bring you outside the box ideas, interviews, and action steps focused in the areas of health, relationships, and our career, all three of which have a huge impact on our hormones. My name is Dr. Alex Swenson Ridley. I'm your host, mentor, speaker, author, entrepreneur, and thought leader on hormones and work life balance for high achieving women. I'm also a wife's, mom, and stepmom to four boys and a furball. And I'm a woman whose own life experience and journey from Adversity and the resulting hormonal chaos to finding hormonal harmony has led to me helping other women break with convention and find the tools they need to not just survive, but thrive. Ready to dive in? Let's go.[01:53] What I started to see and really have recognized, especially when I was writing my book on Selfless Syndrome that came out in January, is that we're missing this really important component that we were designed to be in relationship with others and in community. And I'm not talking about the pandemic or pre or being introverted or extroverted or that has nothing to do with any of this. There is something that we gain from being in relationship with others, particularly peers and those who we can relate to in a peer way. Women who get us and understand us, that actually helps us to de escalate from stress. We as women, go through something called tend and befriend. And the way I think about this is I'm going to tell you to share a little story here that I actually shared in my book. But I grew up in Vermont, which is actually where I'm recording this because I'm here helping my mom recover from a pelvic. Broken pelvis. But when I was a kid, we would go out and go hiking all the time. And there was a stay where we were driving to what was my favorite.[02:57] Mountain because we...

Is pain driving your desire for lifestyle change? Most of us only change something when there is pain associated with what we have been doing. But according to my podcast guest today, if this is your only driver, no changes you make will be sustainable. You’re also missing some essential keys that will make the difference in your success. I’m joined by the founder of the internationally known MetaProject Olly Wood, who is a former personal trainer who became fascinated by what drives behavioral change.&nbsp;On this episode we cover the components that drive behavior change that go far beyond nutrition and exercise and get into the specifics of weight loss, hormones, body betrayal, intermittent fasting and so much more for high achieving women.&nbsp;Oliver got his start in the trenches of the health world as a PT in a big box gym. After 7 years of working with primarily high-performing business owners he saw the extent to which stress, inflammation, and a lack of focus on recovery was ruining any progress they were making, and, worse still, was leaving them burnt out and unproductive mentally as well. Rather than simply encouraging high-performers to do more and work harder, Olly has worked with world-leading experts in exercise, nutrition, biochemistry, and coaching, such as Brian Walsh, The Poliquin Group, Kassem Hanson, Ben Pukulski, Linh Trinh, and Cliff Harvey, among others, to develop a more holistic, scientific, and sustainable approach to health and performance.If you’re in that place of deep introspection after this episode, I’d also like to invite you to connect with me for our weekly newsletter on LinkedIn or through email.

Often our best intentions of "cleaning up our diet" actually lead us down a path of developing a very negative and non nourishing relationship with food.

How do you react when things happen that are beyond your control? I’ve been giving this a lot of thought since, thanks to weather airport shutdowns, I unexpectedly spent my 38th birthday (Christmas Eve) and Christmas all alone. We can’t control our circumstances, but we have a choice in how we show up inside them.On today’s podcast episode, I’m taking this a step further into unearthing how circumstances you can’t control may or may not be impacting your goals for the new year. In other words, are you setting goals out of a reaction or truly from a place of creation?To connect with Dr. Alex further visit:Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://www.emergentwomencoaching.com/chronicle Register for our Monthly Tea Talk: https://calendly.com/emergentwomen/tea-talkConnect with Us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dralexridley/

With the onset of the pandemic sales for alcohol, flour and marijuana skyrocketed. As a society, many of us self-medicated through isolation and uncertainty, even if it went against our commitments to ourselves and our health.

Do you tend to relate to menopause as somehow being the end? The end of enjoying sex, the end of feeling like yourself, the end of having a waist? While many of us in the western world relate to menopause as something that is far from joyful, it is entirely possible to not just survive, but thrive through the transition into our “age of wisdom”. I am joined for this conversation today by Alison Bladh, a registered nutritional therapist and beauty therapist living in the wilds of Sweden.Having worked in the health and wellness industry for over 30 years specializing in menopausal women’s health she now runs her own online clinic helping women worldwide manage the negative symptoms of menopause.

Life is too short to suffer symptoms that hold you back!

Are you waiting for something to come along or to happen so that you can finally be happy and fulfilled? Many of us spend a lifetime chasing this elusive thing called happiness and fulfillment, but struggle to find it in the things we usually look to. My conversation today with the Happiness Mentor Karyn Seitz dives deep into how we actually cultivate happiness and fulfillment in our lives, regardless of our circumstances. As a former spiritual healer, Karyn realized her clients were not getting better. She wasfrustrated that she could not deliver the results her clients wanted even though she was trying lots of different healing modalities and coaching techniques.Karyn knew she also wasn’t getting the changes she wanted in her life. She secretly lacked any confidence in her ability to change. Her adult life had stalled.In a fresh new search for answers, Karyn found the missing piece that would ultimatelytransform her life and her clients. There is something very profound in owning that she is theproblem in her life. This awareness pushed her to confront herself and get serious about herself and her life.Karyn is now fulfilled in her life and teaches others the same journey she has taken to findherself and be happy.Karyn calls herself The Happiness Mentor and teaches an online happiness course for women called Awakened Grace.To connect with Dr. Alex further visit:-Pre-Order the Selfless Syndrome Book: https://www.emergentwomencoaching.com/the-selfless-syndrome-book-prelaunch-Join our List for Upcoming Tea Talks Announcements: https://www.emergentwomencoaching.com/tea-talk-Book a Selfless Syndrome Breakthrough Session: https://calendly.com/emergentwomen/breakthroughBe sure to check out our website, and follow us on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Addiction, trauma, and struggles with mental health are something a large portion of our population struggles with. The treatment options that have been available in the past also have varying results. Today I’m joined by addiction and trauma expert and outside-the-box thinker Dr. Constance Scharff for a discussion on combining western knowledge of addiction and trauma healing with somatic and indigenous healing practices.Dr. Scharff is an award-winning, bestselling author. She has published three books. Her most recent is Rock to Recovery: Music as a Catalyst for Human Transformation, published in 2021 by Around the Way Publishing.

Her book reviews can be found in the New York Journal of Books.In her role as an addiction researcher, Dr. Scharff brings the latest in evidence-based addiction treatment information to those who suffer worldwide from addiction and trauma. She has spoken at conferences and shared information with researchers and mental health professionals in Europe, North and South America, the Middle East, Asia, Oceania, and Africa. Her goal is to eliminate the stigma that is too often associated with addiction and other mental health disorders, so that individuals in need of care will be able to receive that support and lead productive, fulfilling lives. In 2019, she received St. Lawrence University’s Sol Feinstone Humanitarian Award for her advocacy and work on behalf of those with mental health and substance abuse issues.To connect with Dr. Alex further visit:www.emergentwomencoaching.comSend an email to Dr. Alex- [email protected] the Subtle Art of Prioritizing Yourself Masterclass: https://www.emergentwomencoaching.com/the-subtle-art-of-prioritizing-yourself-masterclassSchedule a Complimentary Breakthrough Session: https://www.coachaccountable.com/offering/PoIflwwvyYbCXtdItH5pQ1vMMLAZMpwBe sure to check out our website, and follow us on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Do you have a tendency to rush through things in an effort to get them done and off your list? This is a trap I’ve seen myself and every single high-achieving woman I’ve worked with struggle with. We don’t have any kind of radar for what giving something 100% is, because we only know somewhere around 120%-150%. And while that’s not always a bad thing (in certain exceptional situations), I know I have a tendency to apply that kind of thinking to EVERYTHING in my life.And as I learned the past couple of weeks, if you try to rush things like deep trauma healing and work, you blow right past the capacity of what you can handle and end up sick, injured or both so you actually slow down and listen. It’s a tale as old as time, and this week I’m unpacking my latest lesson in falling into this high achiever pattern of doing life on this week’s episode of the Selfless Syndrome Show. I also wrote about this in our brand-new newsletter that went out today. Writing is one of my gifts that I’m tapping back into more in the form of email missives and (dare I say it) a new book!

Three years ago I woke up one day, pulled on my favorite pair of pants, and realized I couldn’t button them. I tried the next pair. Same thing. A few minutes later I was left staring at a pile of pants that had fit me just fine the week before, wondering what the heck just happened? On today’s episode of the Selfless Syndrome show, I unpack what I’ve learned on my own journey, and watched the journeys of my clients as I evolved from focusing solely on functional medicine to truly focusing on healing on not just a physical level but also an emotional level, led to the birth of the Hormone Transformation Roadmap.

How’s your self-talk? As women, we are capable of thinking some pretty terrible things about ourselves. Today I am joined by author and coach Sharon Natoli for a deep conversation on how to truly take control of and transform your self-talk.Sharon is the author of Find Your Voice - Speak up & Be Heard by Mastering Your Self Talk (coming in 2022) and the Founder of the Self Talk Mastery program. With an inspiring, engaging, and thought-provoking style, she talks about what gets in the way of speaking up. She challenges audiences to go deeper to reveal the levers that will shift them from being a spectator in life, to directly influencing the result by finding their voice and speaking to be heard. Sharon believes when individuals are freer to express themselves, their influence grows, personal power builds and they can get on with making the difference they were born to make.

Earlier this year Gallup magazine reported the gender gap in burnout nearly doubled during the two years of the pandemic and shifting working environments. And Forbes declared the last two years the “Great Resignation” with 40% of women looking for a new employer (or leaving corporate to start a business) citing burnout as the main reason.
