Scene: I was CRUSHING it. Getting it all done at work and at home, finding the time to run and do HITT workouts while still . Things would just roll off my back, too…until they didn’t.⁣

Just like that, I was always tired trying to “do it all”.⁣

At first I thought it was normal to be so exhausted while doing so much (that’s what my doctor said too…"it's just " 🙄) ⁣

but then I discovered I was running on and my adrenals were exhausted from “doing it all”...⁣

➡️ Getting late night proposals done for work while my daughter slept on my lap⁣
➡️ Squeezing in a HIIT workout while my kids were napping⁣
➡️ Managing our budget⁣
➡️ Meal planning for our family⁣
➡️Taking care of the dogs⁣

ALL. THE. THINGS.⁣

Led to what I call which is becoming more and more common for the type-A, independent, go-getter moms who do it all. ⁣

I just didn’t feel like myself anymore, but it wasn't from lack of trying.⁣

It was because my constant pushing, the stressors I didn't even realize I was experiencing, and the hormonal cascade that followed was depleting my body.⁣

That’s why I created the Starter Kit.⁣

Because there is no magic pill or one size fits all diet or protocol that will help address these, ⁣

BUT with an understanding of how to support a body with and stress-induced symptoms, feeling like sh*t can be a thing of the past and we can uncover the missing pieces of the multifaceted health puzzle.⁣

Here’s what to expect from the Starter KIt:⁣
1️⃣ Learn what the adrenals are, what impacts them, and why we have to look deeper⁣
2️⃣ Training on how to support the body as a type A woman who wants to be able to enjoy spontaneity on top of responsibility (without having to pay in exhaustion later⁣)⁣
3️⃣ Symptom::Mineral Mapping table to gain insights into symptoms⁣ and the relationships between mineral groupings and what they reveal about root causes (e.g., digestion, hormone imbalances, inflammation, etc.)⁣⁣
4️⃣ And more⁣

Mineral imbalance is a root cause to almost 𝘢𝘭𝘭 symptoms moms experience.⁣

Fatigue, anxiety, overwhelm, crashing by 3pm, low ability to handle stress, irritability, short fuse.⁣

I can 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐞 you - they all have an underlying mineral imbalance.⁣

For moms I find mineral imbalances to be almost unavoidable, here’s why:⁣

1️⃣ Most women in the 30-40 age range were raised in the era of low-fat, 100 calorie, dairy-free, fad diets that led us to a period of life where we obsessively tracked or restricted foods. This “diet history” is a massive stressor that leads to mineral imbalances and displacement⁣

2️⃣ History of birth control use. If you want to know more about how birth control leads to mineral imbalances, check out this post →⁣ https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10108870850775809...

3️⃣ Stress. This one is a given, but being a mother is arguably the most stressful thing you’ll ever experience in your life. There’s the physical stressors of less sleep, less “self care”, less consistent eating routines, and more, but there’s also the mental/emotional stressors of never being able to turn off - to hear your own thoughts - to not be thinking about 10 things at once that leads the body to burn through extra minerals in the stress response and lead to depletion⁣

4️⃣ By some estimates, moms lose up to 𝟒 𝐩𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝟏𝟎% of minerals during pregnancy. Think about it: your body is physically giving your baby what it needs to thrive. Think about this if you have more than 1 kid and never actively replenished your minerals between each pregnancy…⁣

5️⃣ Breastfeeding requires extra nutrient demands (so much so that the RDA for lactating women for certain nutrients is often higher than that for pregnant women) AND extra time commitment that often leads moms to neglect their own nourishment and basic needs⁣

(𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘴, 𝘣𝘵𝘸)⁣

And yet…no one ever tells us these could be factors in how we’re feeling postpartum.⁣

No one tells us to 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐚𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐬.⁣

But minerals are 𝘴𝘰 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵 because they’re the spark plugs that kick off processes in our bodies.⁣

❓❓❓ Want to have the energy to get on the floor and play with your kids? ⁣

You need minerals to create that energy.⁣

❓❓❓ Want to have the patience to handle that toddler tantrum?⁣

You need minerals to be able to ebb in and out of a healthy stress response (instead of getting stuck in it and always yelling) ⁣

But when our bodies are under stress - including from life, pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and motherhood - we use up minerals.⁣

Which leaves us dysregulated.⁣ ❌
Depleted.⁣ ❌
And less resilient to stress (and motherhood!)⁣ ❌

So what can you do?⁣

Well step one is to understand how stress has impacted your minerals so that you can understand how those mineral imbalances are impacting how your body functions day in and day out.⁣

It’s really not as simple as “lowering cortisol” or (𝘨𝘢𝘴𝘱) taking adaptogens to help regulate cortisol levels.⁣



Sure, those things can be helpful, but if you don’t know what stage of stress you’re in...⁣



𝐚𝐧𝐝 you don’t know how your body has compensated for those demands...⁣



it’s a bit like trying to clean the house while your toddler is actively “playing” with everything in sight. You may be cleaning up one thing but the rest is stacking up behind you.⁣



This is why I use the Hair Trace Mineral Analysis (HTMA) with all of my clients - so we can know *exactly* what stage of stress they’re in and how that has impacted their body. ⁣



From there, we develop a plan with that as the starting point...because cortisol never works in isolation.⁣

Fatigue, irritability, thyroid, weight, and even period problems are all a SYMPTOM of a deeper issue.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
One where all roads point to ➡️ STRESS.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
The kicker?!⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Dealing with these symptoms is a major cause of…STRESS.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Creating a vicious cycle 🔄 that further exacerbates the issues.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Which means…⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
the only way to truly address these symptoms for the long term is to break the positive cortisol feedback loop and ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
repair the damage that has been done to your body from the vicious cycle of stress physiology. ⁣⁣

Address those and watch your body heal.⁣

Stick with me here because I’m about to blow your mind. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
To understand this, we have to start with metabolism.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
At its most basic definition, our metabolism is the process our body uses to break down food for energy…and then how it 𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐬𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
That includes vital bodily functions like: ⁣⁣

• digestion⁣⁣
• immune function⁣⁣
• detoxification⁣⁣
• hair/nail growth⁣⁣

⁣⁣
More stressors = more energy expenditure (so that you can “fight or flee”).⁣⁣
⁣⁣
As energy expenditure INCREASES, we burn through the available resources in the body which ultimately leads to a slower metabolism.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Once metabolism slows, it takes longer and more energy to create energy, which affects ALL of our body systems…including digestion.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
(𝘛𝘓;𝘋𝘙: 𝘢𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘮 𝘴𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴)⁣⁣
⁣⁣
As digestion slows, enzyme and stomach acid production decreases and it becomes harder for the body to break down food (and supplements).⁣⁣

Picture this: it’s February 2023, 3 months from now.⁣

After the stress of the holidays, the New Year, and the petri dish that was your home in 2022…⁣

RSV.⁣

Flu.⁣

And that mystery illness that seemed to tear through the whole family - and back again.⁣

𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫.⁣

You’d hoped that once you got through the “busy time” of the year you’d finally be able to focus on yourself.⁣

Get back into exercising like you used to do every day before you felt like crap.⁣

Start eating clean again, since that’s always given you a boost in energy.⁣

And even set aside some time for your hobbies to help you feel less angry all the time.⁣

But instead of doing any of that…⁣

You’re napping more.⁣

Waking up every day, feeling miserable, stress levels through the roof.⁣

Not being the mom that you feel you want to be.⁣

Because you didn't take the steps to make a change for yourself, your family, and your future. ⁣

(𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘵 𝘣𝘭𝘢𝘮𝘦)⁣

Truth: I get that this is hard to think about…but have you considered it?⁣

Are you willing to settle if this stays your reality for the next 6 months, 12 months, 3 years, until your kids are old enough to remember you being miserable every day?⁣

Is that even an option for you?⁣

If not, I’m here to tell you that it’s not too late.⁣

I have a few more spots for clients in December, but I’m keeping the group small this month so that I can also enjoy the holidays with my family.⁣

Curious if you’d be a fit and if The Calm and Balanced Mama Method can get you to feeling like yourself again for 2023? Happy, energized, present…?⁣

Up until 2016, I was overseeing $40 million dollar government contracting bids at the ripe old age of 30.⁣

I was at the complete mercy of my clients’ deadlines⁣

But I was good at what I did.⁣

I’d gone from the woman who wanted FIVE kids⁣

…to someone who was frustrated and annoyed anytime my toddler needed me while I was working… {sad face}⁣

From marrying a man who in every way seemed too good for me⁣

…to a 𝐬𝐞𝐱-𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 roommate because I was too exhausted to give any more of myself.⁣

And I couldn’t help but wonder if this was just what it was like to be a working mom?⁣

As I explored this idea,⁣

IT HIT ME THAT THE LIFE I WAS LIVING WASN’T IN ALIGNMENT WITH WHO I WAS.⁣

I’d always done everything to the best of my ability,⁣

So why was I settling for less when it came to the one thing I’d always wanted?⁣

I had to find a way to “turn off” because I’d driven myself to exhaustion.⁣

I was running on fumes and there wasn’t enough of me left to go around.⁣

And that’s when I realized that everything happens for a reason.⁣

…which started with myself, and my health.⁣

My life didn’t have to be all OR nothing.⁣

I didn’t have to choose work OR my family.⁣

I could have them both – and I could feel happy and balanced –⁣

- 𝘐𝘍 (𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘐𝘍) -⁣

I put myself (and my hormones) first so that I wasn’t always running on fumes.⁣

So I started focusing on breaking the positive cortisol feedback loop so that I could get my body out of fight or flight and improve my energy which lead to me not feeling so damn irritated all the time.⁣

Doing that allowed me to anchor to who I COULD be.⁣

Which ultimately led me to walk away from my successful career because it wasn’t in alignment with who I wanted to be.⁣

And with new energy and confidence, I was able to become more of who I was meant to be in the process.⁣

If it sounds too simple, it’s because it is. ⁣

And while simple does not equal easy...⁣

I truly believe it is a very real possibility for you too if you are willing to put in the work.⁣

👉 Period problems and PMS? ⁣
👉 Estrogen dominance? ⁣
👉 Low progesterone?⁣
👉 Slow thyroid?⁣
👉 Blood sugar dysregulation?⁣
👉 Insulin resistance?⁣

THOSE are not the problem so stop trying to treat them like they are!⁣⁣

When it comes to our hormones, there’s a hierarchy, and I can tell you that those ☝️☝️☝️ ⁣

𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐲. ⁣

But you know what is? ⁣

Cortisol - our main stress hormone.⁣

You can think about your hormone hierarchy like a triangle.⁣

👉 At the base, you have cortisol. ⁣
👉 In the middle of the triangle, you have thyroid hormones. ⁣
👉 And at the very top, your female s*x hormones.⁣

So when you’ve been running on stress hormones for years…decades…⁣

It goes without saying that the base of that hierarchy will be dysfunctional and dysregulated.⁣

Which results in a shaky foundation for the rest of your hormones because cortisol⁣:
👉 down-regulates thyroid hormone production⁣
👉 diverts resources away from progesterone production, which is one of our main calming hormones⁣
👉decreases metabolism which increases estrogen, leaving us in an estrogen dominant state⁣
👉 impacts insulin regulation, helllllo hangry outbursts and shakiness⁣
👉 shuts down our ovaries (because this is NOT the time to reproduce!)⁣

That’s also the exact reason they 𝗪𝐎𝐍’𝐓 work. ⁣

Because for busy moms 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 who have to take care of “all of the things”...⁣

Who skip meals because they have too much to do or because they’re not hungry in the morning because stress has shut down their digestion…⁣
Who squeeze in a workout whenever they can (or not at all)...⁣

🚽 Taking supplements to fix your problems is the equivalent of throwing your hard-earned money down the drain (buh bye money!).⁣💩

Here’s why:⁣ 🔻🔻

When your lifestyle is still depleting key nutrients needed for a healthy stress response then your cortisol will remain elevated and trigger anxiety, irritability, and impatience. ⁣

This takes your hormones out of alignment and makes you feel like you’re burning the candle at both ends⁣

(𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸, 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨!?)⁣

And you’ll continue to feel exhausted in the morning and crash in the afternoon.⁣

And if you never repair and replenish the downstream effects of being depleted…⁣
⁣..your body will be unable to do the repair work it needs to help you relax, feel more rested, and reduce your irritability, moodiness, and anger. ⁣

And if you don’t have a self-regulating mindset that allows you to prioritize your thoughts, energy, and emotions…⁣
⁣..your brain will continue to perceive danger when there’s no threat (or the threat is relatively minor).⁣

Which means...⁣

𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐝.⁣

Where the only improvement you see is dependent on continuing to shell out the monthly cost of supplements.⁣

Here’s the truth ⁣

We live in a world that tries to mask symptoms and never address the root cause⁣ 😷

So supplement companies HOPE you’ll be like most and stay hooked on the vicious cycle.⁣

But the moment you stop?⁣

You’re back at square one.⁣ 🟧
