Having listened closely to the journeys behind these incredible human performances, here are 5 learnings that many of us could take and apply to our own aspirations and lives.
I’d never really thought about how hormone balance might be disrupted by concussion, but after the accident my hormones went into havoc! I started to connect some dots and do a little research and discovered the five main ways concussions (and likely many other stressors) can affect hormone balance, especially during perimenopause and early menopause:
We all have the same 24 hours in a day. The same 365 days in the year. So why is it that some people seem to do so much of value and feel satisfied with their use of it, whilst others seem to waste it?
This Podcast episode shares a simple acronym with 5 steps to help increase your awareness and optimise your relationship with time.
Whilst it’s great to harness the energy of the change in season, if you’re anything like many of the driven women I see, you might have a tendency to take on a few too many projects, only to find yourself off track or worn out before the end of the month.
I've had lots of thoughts and questions swirling around in my head recently. I've been celebrating the big 50 and it seems many inner questions come with milestone birthdays. I can attest, the midlife crisis seems real!
Here’s some of the questions that have been swirling around in my head:
I hope some of the International Women's Day messages sparked your interest and imagination around embracing equity. I believe we'd be living a very different experience if we had more healthy female leaders running it, don't you?
In my experience women rarely need ridiculously gruelling diets and exercise programmes, but they DO need to master their relationship with their body and time, as well as their minds and emotions, if they want to continue to feel and perform at their best in to their forties and beyond.
Whilst I find perfect work-life balance is somewhat of a myth, I know that if the mind and body aren't in harmony, you’ll start to know about it. Maybe you already do? Challenges can start quietly, especially a few weeks after sprinting off on a new diet, or an over-exertive exercise programme.
A New Year, a fresh start. New intentions and a surge of energy - New Year Resolutions begin with such great hope. It’s great to have clarity on a handful of goals for the year ahead whether that’s to lose weight, reduce stress and anxiety or be marathon fit. Yet just a few days into the new year and it’s easy to find yourself overwhelmed with all there is to do…
How did 2022 work out for you?
Did you accomplish all you set out to at the beginning of the year?
If you haven't yet had 5 minutes to spare to consider this question, I'd strongly recommend you find it. In fact an hour would be even better. I believe this is an essential process whoever you are and whatever you do. I call it a Reflect, Review and Release (RRR) process.
In this Podcast episode we are talking motherhood, body positivity, discrimination and more with My Swiss Blog founder Pragati Siddhanti.
Do you ever have an urge to get away from it ALL? From the planning, the responsibilities or relentless rhythm? Like your head is going to burst if you fill it with anyone or anything else.
Whether you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, feel a need to reset or have a boost of inspiration, an environmental cure might be exactly what you need. And it might not be as complicated or expensive as we might think.
Perimenopause can hit much earlier than women might expect and menopause can bring challenges we’d prefer not to have. Furthermore, so many women are confused by their symptoms and misunderstood by those around them - who can think they’re going crazy as they navigate the fatigue and fluctuations.
This episode was actually recorded as a New Year Reset for our community. However, the content is perfect for a mid year check in or equally applicable throughout the year, whenever we are redesigning our goals for the next term or quarter.
We discuss - What are your goals? Are they truly aligned with what’s important to you?
Let’s imagine there was a totally free drug, that was available anytime, any place, and had no undesirable side effects.
A drug that could relieve pain, calm stress, help maintain an ideal weight and hormone balance, as well as optimise digestion and significantly improve cardiovascular health. Not only all of that but could also support you and your loved ones to sleep well and perform at their best at work, school or in sport.
