When the shock that Chris had entered perimenopause, way younger than she thought possible, started to fade away, she went into research mode. Today Chris shares what she has learned about the big Hs - HORMONES! She tells you what's happening with them in perimenopause, and what they do in your body. Spoiler alert: A LOT!
This one is a bit more technical and a little less story-like; it's packed full of important information about women's bodies.
This episode is the second in a series Chris is hosting about Women's Health with a focus on perimenopause.

Calling ALL women! You're never too young (or old) to learn about women's health and the big changes that happen in your body. Join Chris as she shares some intimate stories about her surprise journey into perimenopause. Menopause wasn't on her radar at all - she was too young! Right?? Apparently not.
In this episode, Chris shares a big list of perimenopause symptoms and talks about some she has experienced, as well as explains just what menopause is, and its stages. It's time to take shame and stigma out of talking about women's health and to make it a mainstream conversation.
This episode is the first in a series Chris is hosting about Women's Health with a focus on perimenopause.

This episode is of Chris being interviewed after hosting her first workshop on the ever-important but until recently almost taboo subject of Women's Health! You'll hear about why Chris is elevating conversations about Women's Health, particularly about the long years of perimenopause which can start, gasp, when a woman is in her late 30s! You'll also learn more about Chris, who she was as a youngster, and how it's helped guide her to where she is today.
Thanks, Lyndsie, for sharing this interview with Chris!

It's a new year! But even when it's not, today's message is important.
Be kind.
When you end something - a year, a goal, a job, or project, or even a relationship - look at it and release (if needed) with kindness. When you begin something new, start it with kindness. Know your whys, review, evaluate, learn, and plan. Even in failure, bring in a lens of compassion and you'll feel so much better and even clearer about it. We judge, we all do! But when you introduce kindness into your judgment, everything can change in the best ways. Give it a try and see. You'll feel a little bit better!

What's the problem? Well, what do you know about it - the actual cause?
The problem is that fast fixes or band-aide solutions are often applied to the symptoms of a problem, rather than the root problem. Sometimes we think we're fixing a problem, but that problem stems from another problem, so the fixes aren't fixes at all. In this episode, we'll look at Chris's 5-step model for identifying the main issue so that those pesky annoyances that sprout from it go away too!

Special episode!
In this episode, Chris gets personal and shares about her experience living in chronic pain, which has been a major source of her personal health challenges. She talks about how she fell into living with chronic pain, how it has impacted her (spoiler: it wasn't only physical!) Many people suffer from chronic pain, yet there is very little conversation about it. Chris highlights how chronic pain can impact a person, from physical limitations to poor sleep, challenges in focusing, and more. She also offers strategies to ease and navigate living with chronic pain.
Join Chris as she lays out her journey with chronic pain to try to create awareness and understanding about how it impacts lives, personally and perspectively.

In 'Distracted By Our Feelings' Chris talks about how getting distracted by our feelings about ourselves, others, or situations, instead of dealing with the challenge, can keep us stuck and even created bigger issues. Being absorbed, fixated, or pre-occupied by our feelings about a thing, can hold us back from achieving goals, building or repairing relationships, and can have a negative impact on our confidence, behaviours, and actions Chris offers examples from her life and tips on how to identify when you're distracted by your feelings instead of dealing with the issue, and how to work through those distractions so you can get out of your own way!

One Magic Question offers listeners a very simple, yet profound way to pause and take stock of their circumstances so they feel more grounded and in control of their emotions and behaviours. By asking this one question, stress and anxiety can dissipate, while perspective and clarity rise. Wands and one magic solution may not exist, but Chris's question about examining the worth of a moment, can have a striking and instant effect on calming emotions to see the bigger picture, and therefore the next best steps! Worth the listen!

Wrestling Yourself sees Chris back on the mic with an episode about how to recognize when we need to get in the metaphorical wrestling ring with ourselves to get to the bottom of ruts, periods of inaction, or unsupportive behaviour, or thoughts that hold us back in life. She illustrates this by sharing her journey - her struggles - to get back to podcasting. She shares how the answers can be delightfully simple, and are there waiting for us when we are ready to confront our own thoughts and behaviours.

Chris is BACK! This episode looks at how taking pauses or breaks, even big breaks that mean you stop doing lots of things can actually lead to more productivity and a better state of mind (and body) down the road. She describes how she just did that and how it has benefitted her. Chris shares her struggle with slowing down, facing her roadblocks, and how it has had positive impacts on her mind and body, and personal and business focuses.

Sometimes we feel shaky or unsteady - life can feel a bit too chaotic. We can't control all the circumstances in our lives, but we can help calm, balance, and steady ourselves within the whirlwind. This audio exercise leads you through a body check-in, and a very simple yet powerful technique you can use anytime (meaning can be out in public - you don't have to be in a quiet, meditative space) to create a sense of sturdiness and steadiness through self-grounding. You are strong. You are steady.

In this episode Feel More!, Chris does a deeper dive on feelings and what they mean and what they can do FOR us or TO us. Chris looks at how we can learn to allow them even when they feel uncomfortable or icky and how it's OK to have feelings we label as 'bad' or 'negative.'
Feel what you feel and if you don't like it, ask why - you may find out your negative feelings are appropriate, or if you don't, you have the power and the tools to adjust them. Go on and feel, feel, feel!
