This week, we’re joined by wellness expert, board certified pediatrician and best selling author, Dr. Taz Bhatia. We do a deep dive into all things hormones for all phases of life. Whether its hormones in adolescence, pregnancy/postpartum or menopause, your hormones have a huge impact in your overall health and wellness. She emphasizes the importance of getting tested to know what our baseline or “normal” hormone levels are so that when issues arise as we get older, we can know where to look and what to supplement. Dr. Taz stresses that hormone health starts with gut health, and that we should focus on a healthy gut as early as are able. We also take a look at pregnancy and postpartum, and how our hormones fluctuate in those phases of growing a baby, birthing and healing. To learn even more, make sure to check out Dr. Taz’s book The Hormone Shift which goes into even greater detail on each of the different hormone phases of life.

Co-parenting is such a challenging task, and today Eva Amurri joins us to share insights into how she and her ex-husband have made this new parenting dynamic work for themselves. Eva explains that forgiveness and self awareness are some of the most important things to practice when co-parenting after a divorce. In order to show up as the best parents for our children, we have to make sure we’re taking care of ourselves and know when to let some things go. Eva reminds us that disagreements are bound to come up, but centering our children and their needs will help make sure we are navigating these situations as best as possible. She hopes that sharing more about her own co-parenting journey will help destigmatize the process for others.
