And that's ok.

I've (slowly) learned that the moment you step out of your comfort zone, it feels icky 😬.

😳Nervous
🤢Tummy weirdness
🏃‍♀️A desire to run away (one of my favourites)
🫣A need for distraction
🤬Irrational anger

But I'm learning that if I want something to change in my life, if I want to make a bigger impact in this world, if I want to inspire and encourage women everywhere to be the best version of themselves, well then...
🏃‍♀️ will have to become 💪

Leaky gut, or intestinal permeability issues, can cause such havoc to so many aspects of our health.

➡️ Gas, bloating
➡️ Vitamin and iron deficiency
➡️ Autoimmune issues
➡️ Fatigue
➡️ Pain, chronic injury

And just because you think you eat well, doesn't mean you're safe.

🏃🏼‍♀️Intense exercise
😥 Chronic stress
🍷 Alcohol
💊 Even some additives in medications and supplements

🚨 It's not just junk food and preservatives that can cause physical pain. 🤨⁠
⁠
Turns out gluten, a main protein in wheat is linked to muscle soreness and joint aches – even in those without gluten allergies or Celiac disease.⁠
⁠
Actually, any food that causes an immune reaction for you can cause soreness and pain.

👉Want to reduce that soreness and ache? ⁠
⁠
You can google different supplements and diets and stretches, but Dr Google can only go so far.

As a naturopathic doctor focused on sport performance and exercise I have helped thousands of people reduce pains and get to the level of training they crave💪🏽⁠
⁠
Strategy and individualized attention is what will really move the needle on your health.

It's time to UP-LEVEL 💪

➡️ I've designed my Gut CleanUp program for women like you who crave science-backed nutritional advice AND the practical how to.

Check it out - there are only a few spots left for this April session.

Bad Estrogen beware!
⁠
Flaxseed and the broccoli family of veggies help to convert the strong estrogen 16OH-estrone to the less potent and more beneficial 2OH-estrone.⁠
⁠
Woohoo!⁠

Eat up ladies (and men)!⁠

🔥 Follicular Phase Track HIIT: Power & Speed Edition 🔥

💥 Why Now? Your energy, recovery, and muscle efficiency are at their peak—perfect for pushing intensity!

🏃‍♀️ Warm-Up (10-15 min)
✔️ 5-10 min easy jog
✔️ Dynamic drills: High knees, butt kicks, A-skips, lunges
✔️ 3-4 strides (60m at 70-80% effort)

🔥 Main Set: Sprint Intervals with Full Recovery
🔹 4-5 x 200m sprints (or 4-5 x 30 seconds) @ 90% effort
⏸️ Rest: 3-5 min walking & deep breathing
🔹 2-3 x 400m sprints (or 2-3 x 60 seconds) @ 85-90% effort
⏸️ Rest: 5-7 min walking & light mobility

🏁 Cooldown (10 min)
✔️ Easy jog/walk
✔️ Stretching + mobility

💡 Why It Works

✅ Full recovery = max sprint quality. DON’T underestimate this!!!
✅ Follicular phase = faster recovery, more explosive power
✅ Lower injury risk = stronger, smarter training

Pro Tip: If your times are getting significantly slower, your rest isn’t long enough! Longer breaks = better quality sprints & bigger gains.

Not enough time to finish the workout? It’s better to get the right recovery between sets than it is to finish all the runs.

I’ve been seeing patients for over 15 years and I can count on 3 hands the number of times a woman has answered the following question “correctly”:

🤔How many days is your cycle?

➡️A cycle starts at the first day of real menstrual flow and ends at the next menstrual flow.

While there is no “correct” answer as a healthy cycle can range from 21-35 days (give or take a few days), when a woman answers 5 days I know something’s off.

What’s off?
How poorly we teach girls and women about their menstrual cycle. Quality “sex education is a critical method of women empowerment in health through increasing their health.”

So next election season, consider carefully which platform supports evidence-based sexual health education.
