Note: I have some amazing interviews lined up, but they aren’t ready yet! Instead of a new episode, we’re going to revisit one of the most popular episodes of “Healing Hormones” with Dr. Cleopatra. Enjoy!

Dr. Cleopatra Kamperveen is a scientist and university professor who specializes in reproductive health and the transference of health from parents to children. Her personal story of growing up without a mother and feeling like she was meant to do something in her life with that experience led her to doing the work she does today as Fertility Strategist and Executive Director of The Fertility and Pregnancy Institute. Dr. Cleopatra pioneered the field of fertility biohacking and creating what she likes to call “Superbabies.” She provides fertility and pregnancy consultations to women and families, nationally and internationally, through her signature In Bloom programs, inner circle, and personalized, comprehensive one-on-one consulting. She’s conducted research on tens of thousands of women of all colors, ages, shapes, sizes, socioeconomic backgrounds, religions, language preferences, and professions to examine how they transmit physical health and emotional wellbeing to their children. This is not all about food and supplements – we talk a lot about the mindset shifts that need to happen in order for our bodies to be ready to conceive.

We literally have the power to change the quality and the expression of the genes that we pass down to our babies!

We Chat About:

  • Why there’s so much variance in fertility
  • The role of negative self talk
  • Epigenetics
  • How the term “infertility” is often misleading
  • The importance of fertility in our overall health
  • What the Primemester program entails

By now, you’ve heard of the gut biome and how critical those little bacteria are in supporting your overall wellbeing. Well, today, Dr. Mark Burhenne joins me to dive into even further detail with one specific, important, and very famous, part of our digestive system – our mouth!

It’s about so much more than bad breath and coffee stains, although we cover the importance of the small stuff too. The truth is that oral health is directly involved in six-to-seven out of ten major chronic diseases. How well, or poorly, we take care of our mouths, is reflected in our longevity and ability to combat illness.

In this illuminating episode, we learn how modern dentistry incorporates this information (or not), what toothpaste and mouthwash are really doing in our mouth vs. what we think they’re doing, and of course – how our oral health can impact pregnancy and general fertility. Settle in for the most enjoyable trip to the dentist you’ve ever had!

We Chat About:

  • Dr. Mark Burhenne’s background and inspirations
  • The mouth’s connection to disease and illness
  • Microbiome: a party in your mouth
  • Negative effects of toothpaste and mouthwash
  • Oral health as it relates to pregnancy

Dr. Mike Belkowski is my guest today. He’s a physical therapist by trade and is passionate about providing his patients with the most effective treatment techniques – most notably, he’s a big proponent of red light therapy, launching BioLight in 2019.

We get into the teeny tiny detail in this one – down to the cellular level! Dr. Belkowski teaches us that our mitochondria react differently to different hues of light and that they’re in every single cell, producing 95% of the energy in our bodies.

Knowing that, it’s easy to see why dysfunctional mitochondria are the root of many diseases. They’re the engine of all our amazing bodily functions – our heath!

All BioLight purchases include Dr. Belkowski’s eBook with red light therapy research, background on BioLight, and – most importantly – protocols on how to use red light at home, including how long and how often to use it and where on your body, depending on what you’re trying to treat.

We Chat About:

  • How Mike discovered red light therapy
  • The details of red light therapy and how it works
  • Why blue light can actually be good for you (just not from technology)
  • The difference between red light therapy and infrared sauna lights
  • How to use red light at home and what a therapy session looks like
  • Where to get started if you’re new to red light therapy

Julie Duffy Dillon is a registered dietician, eating disorder specialist, and food behavior expert partnering with people on their food peace journey. She helps people with PCOS promote health without diets through her online courses and her podcast, Love Food.

In the space of healing our hormones, and trying to get to the root of our hormone imbalance symptoms, I found that we can start to develop a fear around our body, a fear around food, and we end up creating black and white rules around what we can and can’t eat. By the end of my interview with Julie, I had an epiphany: I had been trying so hard to control my body that I was causing myself unnecessary stress, and that stress itself can be horribly disruptive to our hormones!

In this episode, you’ll learn how to take all of the information that’s out there, learn to apply it to your body and your life, and from there decide what foods make you feel best and what foods don’t. You’re going to learn so much from Julie!

We Chat About:

  • The comparison between dieting and eating disorders
  • Easing the symptoms of PCOS without dieting
  • Demystifying inflammation
  • Promoting experimentation without getting into a diet mindset
  • Gluten and hormone health
  • Learning how to intuitively listen to your body
  • How exercise and movement relates to PCOS

You may have heard us mention talking to a psychic medium in the past, and today we brought him on the show! Chris Medina isn’t your average psychic.

  • Where: The Barrett in Columbus, Ohio
  • When: 5:30 - 7:30 on November 17, 2017
  • More info can be found on the Facebook Event
