S1 Ep 178EP 178-What Drives You?

What drives you? This week I’m unpacking this question on a deep level. Having worked with other busy, high-achieving women for a few years now, I’ve come to the conclusion that our own addictive tendencies are often rooted in being addicted to stress and being driven to success to avoid dealing with the parts of our lives that are painful and feels unsafe. We use our drive and our successes as a way to hide from our trauma, pain, or our own sense of lack of worth and keep ourselves safe by pushing to new heights, all while not wholly being engaged in our own lives.

S1 Ep 169EP 169-Do You Trust Yourself?

Do you intellectualize and overanalyze your feelings rather than just…allow yourself to FEEL them? I shared this conversation in my free group last week and felt it was important enough to share here as well. In discussing this with others, I’ve found it can be a common difficulty among busy women to ignore, move past, or analyze our feelings rather than just feeling them. In the world of neuroscience, thoughts are the emotions of the brain and feelings are the emotions of the body. In order to be healthy, the two must move towards coherence. So the question posed in this episode: do you trust yourself? Do you allow yourself to feel? And how connected are you between your brain and your heart?To connect with Dr. Alex further visit:www.emergentwomencoaching.comSend an email to Dr. Alex- [email protected] $230 off an initial consultation https://www.emergentwomencoaching.com/voucher-7421Get more free trainings and connect with our private community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/trwcommunityBe sure to check out our website, follow us on Facebook and Linked In, and Instagram.

S1 Ep 164EP 164-Lifestyle Medicine & Hormones with Functional Nurse Practitioner Christa Elza

Today’s conversation with Functional Nurse Practitioner Christa Elza bridges the gap between western medicine and lifestyle diseases–which are what most of us are experiencing with hormone imbalances, difficulty losing weight, and more. This episode will help you navigate the world or what’s within your control with your health and how you start to access feeling better and truly healing. Christa graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2000. She was immediately drawn to Emergency Medicine and was a trauma nurse for 8 years. She was able to experience working in this field in hospitals around the country including New York City and Norfolk, Virginia.Christa earned her Master's Degree in Nursing from Texas State University in 2018 and is a board-certified nurse practitioner in Family Practice Medicine. She was the sole practitioner in a clinic specializing in weight loss, hormone balance, and aesthetics.

She wanted a better way to help women achieve lasting health results. With that vision in mind, Christa began her journey with the School of Applied Functional Medicine, learning the root cause approach to personalized healthcare.In August of 2020, Christa launched her virtual health practice, Elive Health, and is now able to provide help to women around the country via webcam. As a functional-medicine expert, she specializes in clinically investigating underlying factors of fatigue, hormone balance, thyroid issues, digestive issues, and more.

In her free time, you can find Christa spending time with her husband of 17 years, Jon, their 3 boys, + her golden retriever, Tori.

S1 Ep 162EP 162-How to Start Sleeping and Feeling Rested Again With Amisha Klawonn

At some point, we all hit a point where sleep becomes a struggle. Be it the journey with small children, perimenopause, and aging, the state of the world, or something else can impact our sleep. It also has a host of negative effects on our hormones and overall health. And can be very frustrating to try to get back. Today I’m joined by Embodiment and Sleep Coach Amish Klawonn for an in-depth conversation about sleep, specific to busy, driven women. Amisha Klawonn is an Embodiment & Sleep Coach, Yoga Therapist, and Integrative Physical Therapist currently living and working in Fort Collins, CO.

S1 Ep 160EP 160-Getting past scammy weight loss when literally nothing else has worked with Lia Pinelli

I loved today’s conversation with Lia Pinelli around what’s missing in the “weight loss” world and truly healing our mindset and relationship with food. If you struggle with chronically dieting, food taking up a large portion of your mental brain space, having tried everything to lose weight and not seeing any results, overeating, undereating, etc. this conversation is for you. Lia is one smart cookie. Despite holding degrees from both Stanford and UC Berkeley she was unable to crack the code on her struggle with overeating for decades. In 2016 she began life coach training and learned how to stop overeating using principles and practices rooted in psychology and neuroscience. She is now on a mission to help women take back their lives from outdated patriarchal norms by first ending their battle with food and weight so they can focus on what really matters– their careers, kids, communities, and lives. She now teaches women how to stop overeating by increasing pleasure and liberating them to create the lives they crave, unapologetically. Obsessed with Lizzo, bad feminism, and Real Housewives, you can count on her to have a cocktail in her hand and a good story on her tongue. Fiercely committed to changing the trajectory for the next generation of girls by helping their mothers and mentors end overeating and feel good in their own skin, Lia lives in California with her husband, son, and a dog named Taco.www.liapinelli.com@liapinellicoachingTo connect with Dr. Alex further visit:www.emergentwomencoaching.comSend an email to Dr. Alex- [email protected] $230 off an initial consultation https://www.emergentwomencoaching.com/voucher-7421Get more free trainings and connect with our private community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/trwcommunityBe sure to check out our website, follow us on Facebook and Linked In, and Instagram.

S1 Ep 159EP 159-Redefining Failure

Have you ever failed at something? I certainly have. And while it wasn’t fun to go through, it has allowed me to grow, learn and evolve into the person, practitioner, and human that I am today. However, for many, the prospect or experience of failure will stop them in their tracks, keep them stuck, or play small when they are capable of so much more.Today I unpack and reframe how we approach failure and dive into how failure is actually necessary for our success. This applies to any area of life, and I share from some of my own experiences with failure that I haven’t talked about so transparently before. The book I mention and read a quote from is A Happy Pocket Full of Money by David Cameron Gikandi.To connect with Dr. Alex further visit:www.emergentwomencoaching.comSend an email to Dr. Alex- [email protected] $230 off an initial consultation https://www.emergentwomencoaching.com/voucher-7421Get more free trainings and connect with our private community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/trwcommunityBe sure to check out our website, follow us on Facebook and Linked In, and Instagram.
