EP 347: Combatting Reproductive Anxiety & Optimizing Pre-Pregnancy Health w/ Alexandria DeVito

Mon, 23 Sep 2024 04:00:00 +0000

Not only is getting pregnant and having healthy children more
difficult than it was for our parents' generation, reproductive
anxiety is also on the rise.

Alexandria's approach to pre-pregnancy wellness is revolutionary. She
suggests preparing for pregnancy with the same level of dedication and
planning as one would for a wedding.

Her book emphasizes that the steps taken to prepare the body and mind
before conceiving can have a profound impact not only on fertility,
but also on the lifelong health of the child. "9 Months Is Not Enough"
serves as a comprehensive guide for individuals at any stage of their
journey to parenthood, offering practical advice and empowering
insights.

In addition to writing the ultimate pre-pregnancy checklist,
Alexandria is a functional nutritionist who specializes in fertility
and preconception health. She is the founder and CEO of Poplin, the
first pre-pregnancy wellness company, and holds an MBA from Harvard
Business School, a master's degree in nutrition, and has had extensive
training as a doula, yoga teacher and personal trainer.

EP 324: Lawsuits and Childbirth with Attorney, Gina Mundy

Mon, 10 Jun 2024 04:00:00 +0000

Gina Mundy is an attorney specializing in childbirth cases. For over 20 years, her focus has been investigating and analyzing mistakes that arise during labor and delivery. She has spent
countless hours meticulously scrutinizing childbirth cases, conducting interviews with delivery teams, and thoroughly examining medical records to gain an in-depth understanding of every decision made during labor and delivery. Throughout her career Gina has traveled nationwide, engaging with healthcare professionals such as doctors, nurses, and midwives to explore all aspects of labor and delivery. These interactions have provided her with invaluable insights, enabling her to appreciate the diverse perspectives prevalent in different regions of the country.

In June 2023, Gina's book "A Parent's Guide to a Safer Childbirth" was published. The book helps parents to avoid the mistakes during childbirth and have a healthy baby. Instead of getting involved after a mistake was made, Gina is getting involved before childbirth to help prevent the
mistakes.

EP 316: Reducing Your Chances of Having a Cesarean Birth with Elizabeth Joy

Mon, 15 Apr 2024 04:00:00 +0000

In this episode, Elizabeth is talking all about what 1 hospital did to take their cesarean rate from 28.9% to 12.2% in 12 months. It is important to shed light on this since our cesarean rate is much higher than what the WHO calls for. Cesareans are necessary about 10-15% of the time in the United States, yet they are happening over 33% of the time. This means that about two-thirds of the cesareans taking place are preventable.

EP 296: A Root Cause Approach to Fertility with Dr. Katie Zaremba

Mon, 11 Dec 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Dr. Katie Zaremba, DC, DABCI is a functional medicine doctor specializing in women's health, focusing on fertility and prenatal care. Dr. Zaremba attended Palmer College of Chiropractic where she began to understand the importance of a root cause approach to health care. After school, she furthered her education to specialize as a board-certified chiropractic internist (DABCI) through the Council on Disease and Internal Disorders (CDID). She has been working for over 5 years with women to help them conceive, maintain pregnancies, and uncover the root cause of their fertility and hormonal issues.

She believes that education is important for not only practitioners but also for her patients to help them better understand their bodies. Her goal with her patients is to make them feel heard and empower them to regain control of their health. Helping her patients from preconception to holding their babies is one of the most fulfilling aspects of her job. When she's not working, Dr. Zaremba enjoys spending time with her husband, daughter, and 2 dogs hiking in the mountains of North Carolina.

EP 291: A Holistic Approach to Pelvic Health with Dr. Stefanie McMillin

Mon, 06 Nov 2023 14:10:00 +0000

Stefanie's passion for women's health started at an early age, in the form of studying pregnancy and childbirth. This passion is what led her to specialize in urogynecology after receiving a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. After graduation, she immersed herself in all things women's health. After countless hours of continuing education courses and extensive training through the Barral Institute, she began utilizing visceral manipulation to help restore health and functionality within the female pelvis and abdominal viscera.

She feels strongly that the aches and pains, both emotionally and physically, that come before, during, and after pregnancy can be eased and prevented with gentle manual therapy, education, and guidance.

In this episode, we dive into the physiology of birth, the importance of education throughout birth an labor, and where visceral manipulation and physical therapy come into play.

EP 289: Sexuality and Motherhood with Pleasure Expert, Susan Bratton

Mon, 23 Oct 2023 04:00:00 +0000

Susan stands firm in the conviction that passion is ageless. However, few things bring lovemaking to a screeching halt faster than the inability to…show up, shall we say. This can be impacted by birth, motherhood, and so much more.

Susan's superpower is her courage. She takes a lionhearted stand for our human right to pleasurable connection. She has the willingness to get nerdy about science/anatomy and is very detailed about lovemaking skills so moms can learn to achieve the pleasure they deserve.

In this episode, I ask Susan about the season of birthing, postpartum, and motherhood and how we can continue to be sexual beings throughout it all.

EP 280: Reducing Childhood Allergy Rates with Pediatric Nutritionist, Ali Bandier

Mon, 21 Aug 2023 04:00:00 +0000

Can parents turn the tide on allergy rates and reduce their child's chances of developing one? According to Columbia-trained pediatric nutritionist, Ali Bandier, MS, RD, CDN the science shows that yes – they can. Former feeding guidelines encouraged parents to limit exposure to high-allergy foods, like peanut butter or shellfish, and refrain from offering those foods until at least two years of age. Recent data shows the opposite: earlier and regular exposure to these foods can reduce developing food allergies. Ali helps navigate the ever-changing food landscape, specifically noting the significant shifts in the science of food allergies, to support parents on their feeding journies.

EP 273: Joy Hunter: A Story of Loss, Infertility and Finding Joy in Life's Challenges with Alexis Jones

Mon, 03 Jul 2023 04:00:00 +0000

With a successful speaking career putting her on the road 250 days a year, a slew of prestigious awards for her activism and a happy marriage, Alexis was living a seemingly charmed life. But the principles of self-care, setting boundaries, and eschewing perfectionism that she espoused in her talks didn't seem to translate into her own life; she still never seemed to feel "enough" inside. Then, in a matter of months, things started to fall apart on the outside, too: She discovered that the man she'd always called dad was not her biological father, she had a devastating miscarriage in the midst of years of fertility struggles, and the pandemic sidelined her travel schedule—and paycheck. A self-described "productivity junkie," she was forced to slow down for the first time in her life.

Hoping that time away would be a good distraction from all the chaos and heartbreak, Alexis rented an RV and set out for the open road to explore the rugged American west with her husband and their best friend. For her, the trip was both healing and disruptive. Along the way she discovers that there is always a purpose to our pain and that happiness is not something that can simply be checked off a list. Joy, it turns out, is not a destination; it's a way of life.

EP 266: Birth Stories, Multiple Sclerosis and Loss with Andrea Ahonen

Mon, 15 May 2023 04:00:00 +0000

Andrea Ahonen is on this episode sharing her motherhood journey with us.

She starts with sharing her birth stories of her two daughters who were both "big babies." She had completely different experiences after doing research and finding a provider to support her choices. Andrea was later diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2017 and went on to have two more babies. This last year she learned of a surprise 5th pregnancy. She opens up about the loss of this pregnancy on this episode. Andrea's story so beautifully portrays the ups and downs that come with motherhood. She is an inspiration and a perfect guest for this Mother's Day episode.

Andrea's favorite resources:

A great doula!

A fantastic provider(s) - my OB & midwife practice combo is amazing!

Mon, 08 May 2023 01:52:00 +0000

She's a TEDx Speaker, Author of Dying To Be A Good Mother, and host of a highly loved Podcast "Emotionally Uncomfortable" with over 6 million downloads, and counting. Heather started her career as a social worker helping adults understand children's behavior.

EP 257: The Babydust Method with Kathryn Taylor

Mon, 13 Mar 2023 05:00:00 +0000

What if you could choose the sex of your baby? There are many existing sex-selection methods out there, but parents have come to find out that these methods are confusing and unreliable. Kathryn Taylor introduces a natural sex-selection approach known as *The Babydust Method,* which is based on the latest scientific evidence. This book details the science behind the method, and explains how you can dramatically increase your chances of conceiving the sex of your choice. This book reveals the flaws in the Shettles method, O+12, egg polarity, pH, and acidic/alkaline/ion diets, and offers a brand new approach involving a combination of precise timing and frequency that has been proven to work based on several published clinical studies.

Ep 252: Entrepreneurship and Motherhood with Lindsay Stuart

Mon, 06 Feb 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Lindsay Stuart is a mom of three, entrepreneur, and founder of the postpartum apparel brand Mamalux. Lindsay has a great story about how motherhood gave her the courage to venture into the unknown – and how she went from hiding and apologizing for being a working mother to bringing it into the light.

Lindsay developed Mamalux after having her second child – when she got sick and tired of wearing bras to bed because she was breastfeeding. Launching into a business she knew nothing about, Lindsay figured out design, manufacturing and even patenting her product – eventually funding a kickstarter.

Ep 249: Fertility and Food with Registered Dietician, Lisa Moskovitz

Mon, 16 Jan 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Lisa Moskovitz, RD, is a registered dietitian, the CEO of NY Nutrition Group, a large group nutrition practice, and the author of The Core 3 Healthy Eating Plan, a personalized, science-based guide to finding your healthiest, happiest weight. She received a BS in nutrition from Syracuse University and then went on to complete an intensive dietetic internship at NYPresbyterian Hospital. Since then, she has accumulated over a decade of experience in private practice, providing nutrition workshops and working with the media. Lisa is regularly featured in major publications such as Well + Good, Eat This Not That, and Yahoo Health and is often interviewed for popular news channels such as Fox 5 NY, CBS News, and Inside Edition.

Lisa is a diet-neutral dietitian: she believes weight loss diets can be helpful for some and harmful for others. Her approach is not diet-centered, it's client-centered. She believes that when it comes to nutrition, there is no one-size-fits-all method and that personalization is paramount for sustainability and success.

This episode we are talking about how diet and other factors such as diet culture, eating disorders, nonfat diets, stress and other factors affect fertility. How you should NEVER throw away your yolk! Lisa also shares how to set our kids up for success with eating.

EP 247: Getting Unstuck and Creating Lasting Behavioral Change with Dr. Sasha Heinz

Mon, 19 Dec 2022 13:00:00 +0000

We are wrapping up this year with Dr. Sasha Heinz,Ph.D., MAPP. She is an academic who went mainstream, using her background as a developmental psychologist to become a mindset coach. Her private coaching practice is grounded in psychological science, and she teaches clients the tools to change their lives for good. An expert in positive psychology and adult development, Dr. Heinz has based her entire career on helping clients make real transformations, giving them the tools to develop their mental fitness by facing challenges and breaking our mind's default modes for stress, self-criticism, and anxiety. She was one of the first 33 people in history to receive a degree in Positive Psychology.

Dr. Heinz brings a fresh and desperately needed perspective to adult personal development. While all things "self-help" have skyrocketed in popularity in recent years, more than 60% of adults are still not high functioning in terms of their cognitive framework. With the proliferation of personal development experts, it's more important than ever to center the conversation about growth and development in adulthood around compelling theory and research.

Stay tuned for the new brand of the podcast launching Janurary 9th!

Mon, 11 Jul 2022 04:00:19 +0000

Macall Gordon is on this episode talking all about sleep. We have all heard about sleep training and gentle sleep approaches but both leave out the key to whether or not it will work. The temperament of your child can majorly affect sleep. Macall dives into what can affect temperament and how it can cause sleep issues.

Between 20-and 30% of children come into this world wired to be more sensitive, more perceptive, more alert, more intense, more persistent and, as a result, have much bigger, more intractable sleep issues. Parents of these "livewires" are trying harder, struggling more, and are not seeing the progress promised in books. Almost without exception they are exhausted, overwhelmed and they think that maybe they just suck at parenting.

EP199: The Art of Breech Birth with Dr. Stu

Mon, 10 Jan 2022 05:00:00 +0000

Dr. Stu is LA's only OB/Gyn specializing in natural breech, twin and VBAC (Vaginal birth after Cesarean) birth. California law now prevents midwives from providing care for breech and twin deliveries.

In this episode, we will talk about the study 20 years ago that changed it all for women delivering breech in the United States. Dr. Stu covers the different kinds of breech and actual data surrounding breech birth.
From the Head's Up Documentary:
"A breech baby is born nearly every four minutes in the United States. Until the year 2000, a woman could opt to birth her breech baby vaginally or via surgery. Then, in 2001, a study came out that took away one of those options. The study was later found to be faulty, but the damage was already done--vaginal breech birth was almost completely eliminated from medical school training and from delivery rooms."

Meg Boggs is back this episode to share with us her book. In FITNESS FOR EVERY BODY, Meg is going against the narrative society has always told her—that as a plus-sized woman she couldn't be fit, strong, or love exercising. She believed she could never be enough. But when she became a mom, Meg began rethinking what society and diet culture said she should be and started embracing her body for what it is. If you didn't catch her on the podcast two years ago, Meg has been busy transforming the wellness space and sharing her journey battling postpartum depression.
