This week I'm joined by Stefanie Adler to talk all about syncing your cycle to optimize your sex life.
We dig into:
Syncing your menstrual cycle with your partner can greatly improve intimacy and sexual satisfaction.
Each phase of the menstrual cycle has unique hormonal and energetic qualities that impact desire, arousal, and the type of intimacy that is most fulfilling.
Open communication with your partner about where you are in your cycle and what you need during each phase can help overcome common challenges with intimacy.
And so much more!

Today's another vulnerable one. I felt it on my heart to share my recent journey through a "dark night of the soul" - a period of significant personal growth and shedding of old identities. But ultimately, the challenges I've faced in my business, marriage, and finances, have led me to a deeper sense of authenticity. If you can relate, you need to know you're not alone. So many women can relate to these experiences. So in this episode, I'm also sharing practical ways to anchor ourselves in self-awareness and consciousness to support the greater collective good.

Meet Jessica:

Today's guest, Dr. Anastasiya Ovechkin, is here to address both the physical and emotional factors that affect (and improve!) our sleep health. We hope this conversation will help you feel less alone when it comes to struggling with sleep, and to learn practical tips and strategies to improve sleep hygiene and quality - going beyond the typical sleep advice you might here out there. By gaining insight into how emotional and trauma-related factors can significantly impact your sleep, we hope that you'll be inspired to take a more holistic, personalized approach to improve your sleep health, rather than just relying on quick fixes.
Sleep is not a one-size-fits-all solution, and requires addressing the Whole Person - physically, emotionally, and energetically.
Meet Dr. Anastasiya Ovechkin:
I'm Dr. Anastasiya Ovechkin, and my journey is one of resilience, healing, and unwavering dedication to women's health. From a young age, I battled debilitating migraines, endometriosis, and severe anxiety and depression. I endured almost a decade of misdiagnoses, self-advocacy, and unimaginable trauma, including rape and suicide attempts. These experiences shaped not just my life but my entire approach to health and wellness. As an osteopath, business owner, and coach, I bring a unique and deeply personal perspective to the field of women's health. My story isn't just about surviving—it's about thriving against all odds. I know firsthand the struggles that many women face but few dare to discuss openly. I've walked the difficult path of chronic pain and mental health challenges, and through perseverance, I've emerged stronger, determined to use my experiences to empower others. In my practice, I don't just treat symptoms; I connect with my clients on a profound level. My personal journey has taught me the importance of a holistic approach to healing—one that addresses not just the physical, but also the emotional and psychological aspects of health. I strive to create a space where women feel seen, heard, and validated because I know how crucial that is to true healing. My mission goes beyond my practice. I'm passionate about breaking the silence around women's health issues and creating a platform where women can share their stories and find strength in each other. I want every woman to know that she is not alone, that her pain is real, and that with the right support, healing is possible. I aim to inspire and empower listeners by sharing my story and the insights I've gained from my personal and professional experiences. I offer not just hope, but practical advice on navigating the complexities of chronic pain, mental health, and the journey to recovery. My message is one of strength, self-advocacy, and the belief that every woman deserves to live her best life, free from the shadows of pain and trauma.

This week, I had the pleasure of chatting with my friend and client Alex Long, a registered dietitian who is passionate about helping women heal their relationship with food and their bodies. In this episode, Alex opens up so vulnerably about her own journey through an eating disorder, PCOS, and autoimmune issues, and how she's used the power of food and somatic healing to get her health back on track. We dive deep into the role of attachment theory and early imprints when it comes to our relationship with nourishment, and Alex shares some super practical tips for moving away from diet culture and learning to trust your intuition around food. Whether you struggle with disordered eating or just want to have a healthier, more joyful relationship with what you put in your body, I know you're going to get so much value from this conversation.
About Alex:
Alex is a Registered Dietitian who is passionate about helping women heal their relationship with food and their bodies so that they can step into their new identity as the healthiest, happiest version of them and live the vibrant and fulfilling life that they were always meant to live. Alex has worked her whole life at trying to be thinnest/fittest/smartest person, which only spiraled her into an eating disorder, PCOS and an autoimmune disease. Now, after recovering from her ED, she's using the power of food and somatic healing to regulate her cycle, heal her gut and show people that it is safe to be your loudest, most authentic self, and that we are not meant to fit into a box that society wants us to fit in.

My guest today is Ashlee Livingstone, a friend and colleague of mine for the past year. In this episode, she shares about her own personal journey with shame - around divorce, blowing up her life several times (in her own words), and most of all, around infertility. Some of the most powerful tools she has used to process and dissolve her shame revolve around releasing her conscious mind and allowing her unconscious mind to take over to do the work. And, in particular, one of those tools is breathwork. As a breathwork leader in my community, I'm thrilled to share Ashlee's insights and gifts with you on the podcast today.

This week, my guest is Linda Robertson. Linda Robertson wrote a short essay that went viral in 2013, Just Because He Breathes, about her own culpability in the death of her gay son Ryan.
Since his death, she has invested years of emotional work to learn from her own mistakes, to figure out how to make meaning from what happened and, most importantly, to repair with herself. After being asked to share her “cautionary tale” at the final conference of Exodus International (the largest “ex-gay” organization in the U.S.), she and her husband were asked to share their story at several organizations for LGBTQ people of faith, as well as churches working to become safer for the queer people in their congregation. She is currently a member of the QChristian Fellowship Board of Directors and leads their Parent Team, as well as a year-round, drop-in virtual group for Christian parents of LGBTQ kids. She has had the great honor of listening to the stories of countless queer kids from Christian homes, who, like her own son, desperately need their parents to set aside their theology and simply focus on listening to, learning from, and reflecting the truly unconditional Love of the Divine to their children.
Linda and her husband of 40 years, Robbie, split their time between Seattle and San Diego – in order to spend time with their beloved five adult children and an utterly delightful grandson. Linda is a nerd who loves books, working out, brain science, child psychology (shout out to Dr. Becky Kennedy and Good Inside), popcorn, going to therapy, and, most of all, connecting deeply with other humans.
