“We have to move our bodies to tell the brain that it's safe to access certain ranges of motion and interrupt whatever patterns we might be in.” - Julia Blackwell There’s always an emotional component to chronic injuries and illnesses. And part of what causes your body to hold on to these emotions is the feeling of not being safe or being fragile. As rehab and fitness professionals, we often see people after injury and illness battling with internalized ableism, blaming themselves and asking “What did I do wrong? Why can’t I fix this on my own?” There’s a lot of grief, fear, sadness and anger that can be compounded by the external pressure that many feel from the greater wellness community that if you do everything right, your body should be perfect. That's just not true. We have an opportunity to create safety for our clients. A space for them to release the emotions they’ve stored physically, without having to dig into the details behind them, and allowing them to move, be safe and be comfortable. Today I’m excited to introduce you to Julia Blackwell, a fascia release practitioner who experienced the lasting impact of fascia release therapy herself and who has helped clients for over 11 years. In today’s episode, Julia and I discuss her journey with chronic pain, how discovering fascial release transformed her understanding of healing, how our fascia connects with our physiology and mental health, its impact on movement and pain perception, practical techniques for working with fascia, the importance of dynamic movement and compression, the need to address both physical and emotional components in healing, and more.

53: Healing Migraines By Combining an Integrative Approach with Technology with Diane Ducarme, Founder of Migraine Heroes 48:23

לפני 9 ימים48:23

48:23

Healthcare is very expensive right now, and the most profitable business models all rely on people being attached to a chronic illness model. How can we make healing through functional medicine more accessible? We’ve been asking ourselves this question at the Integrative Women’s Health Institute and it’s difficult to answer. Treating clients who have complex chronic conditions requires active participation by practitioners. We bring together coaching skills and look at different physiologic systems as a whole, all while being mindful of overwork and burnout ourselves. Technology will change how healthcare is delivered, and the role of clinicians will change. The good news is that there are ways we can integrate these new systems into our practices to create better outcomes for our patients and clients. When done correctly, technology can help us scale our skillsets and improve accessibility. Today I’m excited to share my conversation with Diane Ducarme, creator of Migraine Heroes. Diane and her team have created a solution to chronic migraines that comes from a very unique perspective that combines technology with traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine, and functional medicine strategies. They’re also working towards making the platform more accessible and approachable for people who can’t afford functional medicine. In this conversation, Diane and I discuss insights from her sister's migraine experiences, the importance of integrative approaches to women's health, the complexities of migraines, the need to address the root causes of migraines, integrating traditional Chinese medicine with Western medical practices, the role of nutrition and lifestyle changes in migraine management, how migraines impact health journeys, the prevalence of migraines among women and hormonal influences, financial barriers to accessing quality healthcare, the use of technology and innovative tools in migraine management and support, and more.

It's critical for women all over the world to have financial nourishment and independence, as well as physical health. It’s all connected. For women, one method of empowerment is through financial stability. That stability can come naturally as you gain more confidence and consistency in your work. Still, we often don’t pay enough attention to it because of the stigma and the feeling that we shouldn’t talk about money. When you also consider that income inconsistency can be a significant stressor in our lives, it’s crucial for us to start to find ways to address the existing issues. The good news is your business can be a source of financial stability and nourishment, not stress. Today’s guest, Tekla Diriczi, is a transformative Women's Health Coach from Hungary whose journey is as inspiring as it is impactful. After feeling stuck in the feast-and-famine cycle that many entrepreneurs experience, Tekla decided to build on her existing experience and skill set. Now, she’s one of the top three menstrual cycle coaches in her country, and her business is thriving. In this conversation, Tekla and I discuss her path from financial instability to becoming a confident coach, the pivotal role of community support and mentorship in her growth, why it’s essential for us to share personal stories, the potential for personal and professional transformation, and more.

51: From Physio to Women’s Health Coach: A Practitioner’s Journey to Career Fulfillment with Tamarah Nerreter 42:46

לפני 23 ימים42:46

42:46

When you’re just starting your career, there’s so much to learn and grow into. After the first decade or so - especially in a clinical setting - the pressure typically builds to a point where getting burned out becomes a problem. There’s the time, effort, and energy needed in your work, raising your kids or caring for aging parents, responsibilities in your community, and so much more. Especially now, as healthcare resources dwindle and systems begin to crumble all over the world, burnout is so common. As a person in clinical healthcare, if you want to shift away from the burnout-inducing productivity pressure and think about what you could do to honor your needs while becoming even more valuable for your clients and patients, coaching might be the right path for you. Today, I’m excited to introduce you to Tamarah Calyniuk-Nerrete, a physiotherapist who found herself very burned out and made the decision to join our Women’s Health Coach certification program. Through developing her coaching skills, Tamarah was able to build a practice that allowed her to slow down and support her physical and mental health while providing a holistic well-being approach for her clients. In this conversation, Tamarah and I discuss her extensive background in physiotherapy, her transition into coaching, how our personal experiences shape our professional practices, why adaptability is a critical skill in your career, how coaching skills benefit both your personal and professional life, the value of continuous growth, the integration of diverse experiences for a fulfilling career in women's health, and more.

50: Women's Desire and Integrative Sexual Health Coaching with Women's Health Coach, Dr. Rose Schlaff, DPT, WHC, IF 57:47

לפני 30 ימים57:47

57:47

“I joined thinking functional nutrition was going to heal me, and what I actually needed was the coaching.” - Dr. Rose Schlaff In the world of women's health and wellness, there's a lot of conversation about pelvic pain, sexual pain, and low libido, especially for women with complex chronic pain and those navigating the stages of life from postpartum to perimenopause. Despite that, the bar is usually set at removing acute pain, and we rarely dig past the point of acceptable sexual experiences. As women’s health practitioners, we have the opportunity to help our clients fully reach their goals and achieve more pleasurable and connected sexual experiences. Just as we would work with an athlete to restore them to their elite-level function, we can think of sexual health similarly. Today, I’m joined by Women’s Health Coach Dr. Rose Schlaff to explore how we can better support our clients in optimizing their sexual wellness and achieving their personal goals. Rose’s background in sexual health, pelvic floor physical therapy, and coaching has shown her that by combining modalities, she could honor her purpose and serve clients in a way that created a significant positive impact on them but also supported her mental and physical health. In this conversation, Rose and I discuss how the pelvic floor and nervous system impact sexual wellness, what it means to optimize sexual wellness, the effects of perimenopause, how chronic conditions affect women's sexual health, how libido changes over a lifespan, simple techniques holistic practitioners can use to better support our clients, and more.

לפני 5 weeks33:34

33:34

“Women need a sacred space, where they are listened to and can be guided to find their own solutions.” - Mila Shwab Mindful listening is one of the best ways we can support our clients. In conventional medicine, there's so much focus on giving directives and instructions that women often feel as though their experiences of their health are pushed to the side. Through coaching, we help our clients from a different angle - empowering them in their journeys. When we create that space and utilize the tools available to us, our clients learn to listen to themselves, making it easier for them to make the sustainable changes they need to achieve optimal health in the long run. Today, I’m joined by Mila Shwab, a graduate of the Women's Health Coach Certification program who is out in the world doing amazing things. Mila’s experience with breast cancer and the trauma that it brought informs her approach to coaching. Now, her practice supports women in aging beautifully and with energy, and she embodies so much of that. In this conversation, Mila and I discuss how her breast cancer diagnosis sent her on a deep dive into nutrition and women's health, her approach to coaching, the importance of providing a safe space for clients, the power of personal experience in guiding others, building a successful health coaching practice, and more.

What makes someone a successful women’s health coach? After 15 years of the Women’s Health Coach Certification program, I’ve seen thousands of students become coaches, and there are certain elements that our most successful graduates have in common. Whether they come from a clinical background, have a passion for helping a particular type of woman, or felt called to this career because of their personal experiences, the most successful people are those with deep curiosity and care about individual women's stories who are navigating challenging things and learning. As we approach the final cohort of the Women’s Health Coach Certification program, I’m exploring how to determine whether becoming a women's health coach is the right career for you. In this episode, I’m talking about the essential qualities of successful health coaches, the role of passion, patience, mindfulness, and curiosity, what it means to create supportive client relationships, the support we offer to people considering joining the program, and more.

47: Why Becoming a Women's Health Coach is the Key to a Fulfilling, Healthier, and Wealthier Career for Medical Professionals | Fixing Healthcare Together with Dr. Dawn Allen, Nurse Practitioner 28:06

לפני 7 weeks28:06

28:06

As a medical professional, you’re trained in a model encouraging you to “solve” your patient's health problems. It’s one thing to be able to prescribe medication for your patients and move on and another thing to integrate that with the tools that allow you to work together to figure out the drivers of their illness. Health is a skill set that your patients have to learn to integrate into their daily lives, and with the right tools, you can help them achieve that. When we shift our mindset toward helping our patients and clients practice this new paradigm of health, we also live richer, more fulfilled, healthier lives. As a women's health professional, you get to have a fully supported, life-giving life where you feel well in your body, and you can continue to do the vital work your clients need you to do. Today, I’m thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Dawn Allen, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Women’s Health Coach certification program graduate. Dawn’s story is an inspiration and a great reminder of what’s possible when we shift into a collaborative model to help clients not only understand from a clinical perspective but also help them to do the healing. In this conversation, Dawn and I discuss how health coaching can integrate into clinical practice, the limitations of the conventional medical approach, why Dawn became interested in health coaching, the benefits of health coaching for patients and clinicians, the value of communication skills and holistic approaches in healthcare, and more.

27:01

“I want my life to look different day-to-day and to solve different problems, and I want support and a way to do that sustainably.” - Stephanie Harrod A big part of being a healthcare provider is helping people and servicing those who need our skills. This is reinforced when we train in a conventional healthcare field, where we’re taught to work in a service model that focuses on becoming a resource for our patients. While service is a critical aspect of what we do, it’s essential to realize that your practice can also be something that serves you. When you refine your niche, the women you’re serving in your coaching practice can give you energy instead of draining you. Our jobs can nourish us, be in alignment, and propel us towards our goals. Today, I’m joined by Stephanie Harrod, a graduate of the Women’s Health Coach certification program and a pelvic health physical therapist transitioning into her women's health coaching practice. During the program, Stephanie created a very clear vision which she is now living. It’s an inspiring journey. In this conversation, Stephanie and I talk about when she recognized the need for more tools and flexibility to serve her patients better, the challenges she faced in deciding whether to join the certification program, the value of community and mentorship, her advice for others considering similar career changes, the significance of vision in achieving professional fulfillment, and more.

The role of health professionals has had to shift significantly over the past 20 years. Patients have more tools than ever, from functional nutrition and lifestyle medicine to cutting-edge medical interventions and alternative therapies. Yet, even for those with access, it can be extremely difficult to navigate these resources and implement them sustainably over time. That’s where health coaching plays a crucial role. It's a set of communication skills that enables health and wellness professionals to guide people through the complexities of caring for themselves in an increasingly and acceleratingly complex and environmentally toxic world. I started to see this increasing need back in 2006, and that’s when I created the first iteration of the Women’s Health Coach certification program. Today, I’m telling you how the Integrative Women’s Health Institute came into being and why I developed our flagship program, the Women’s Health Coach certification. I’m also sharing why this cohort will be the final one of the program and the exciting changes we have on the horizon. Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!

“I have a bigger connection with my patients than I ever have, and that even translates to working with other professionals on the care team.” - Dr. Maggie Roth, PT, DPT, ATC, WHC Integrating health coaching into our existing practices and skills can profoundly improve patient care and outcomes. In clinical training, we’re typically taught to measure success against a set of functional goals. It’s rare for clinicians to encourage patients to think about goals specific to their lives and support them in achieving them. The healing journey is not just about evidence-based measures like how far a patient can walk and what their endurance is. Those metrics are important, but they're not the whole story and don’t reflect a holistic approach to women’s health. Today, I’m thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Maggie Roth, a graduate of our Women’s Health Coach certification program. Maggie is a pelvic health expert and physical therapist who now specializes in working primarily with mothers who also deal with chronic pain. Since graduating, she has integrated her coaching training into her physical therapy practice in a way that has helped her clients get to the point of being fully well and in alignment with their goals. In this conversation, Maggie and I discuss her journey into physical therapy, what it has been like integrating health coaching into her physical therapy practice, what holistic, client-centered care looks like, why relieving physical symptoms doesn’t address the whole picture, her experiences as a postpartum mother and working with women suffering from chronic pain, the need for continuing education and community support among healthcare professionals, and more.

[TRIGGER WARNING: Suicidal ideation] “Most of the things I did were not given to me by my practitioners because they had no clue what was going on.” - Dr. Madhu Bagaria Walking the path of complex chronic illness is a difficult one. Even when we’re highly motivated and have the technical understanding as practitioners, it’s never that simple. One specialist can’t solve everything, but that doesn’t mean there’s no hope. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, we must embrace a holistic approach that addresses the physical, mental and spiritual aspects as a whole. Toda,y I’m excited to introduce you to one of my colleagues, Dr. Madhu Bagaria, an endometriosis surgeon who struggled for years with severe chronic pain. Despite Dr. Bagaria’s position as a medical doctor, she experienced firsthand the frustration many women feel when navigating the healthcare system. Despite seeing a series of specialists, no one tried to uncover and address the root causes of her pain and instead offered her opioids and anti-depressants. In this conversation, Dr. Bagaria and I discuss the complexities of chronic illness and pain, her struggles with fibromyalgia, what a holistic approach to patient care looks like, the benefits of integrating Eastern and Western medicine, the importance of emotional, psychological, and spiritual bodies in healing, the role of support networks, mindfulness practices, self-advocacy, and more.

“Healthcare professionals who are not trained in treating chronic pain but trying to treat chronic pain are actually detrimental.” - Monica Demitor When you’re living with chronic pain, accessing the services and care you need can be challenging. From identifying providers and treatments that have the right expertise to taking care not to make your diagnosis your entire identity, trying to navigate all the nuances and building out the right health team for you can be a tricky line to walk. Healthcare professionals have an opportunity to help people navigate their chronic pain in a productive way rather than a traumatic and exhausting one. That’s where organizations like Anodunos are essential in their work to train the practitioners who serve chronic pain patients. The Anodunos Method is a revolutionary approach to pain management and education. Anodunos means “without pain” in Greek, and the Anodunos method is a truly integrative approach to care, recognizing that combining various treatment modalities enhances patient outcomes. Today, I’m thrilled to introduce you to Christine Sotmary, Monica Demitor, and Jenn Trepeck from Anodunos. Their goal is to train people who want to help those with chronic pain navigate a multi-disciplinary set of resources that actually will help them meet their goals. Over the past 25 years of my career, the evolution of the research and resources for chronic pain has been amazing to witness. In this conversation, Christine, Jenn, Monica, and I discuss the Anodunos Method, why a multidisciplinary approach to chronic pain management is essential, the role of pain navigators in coordinating care, knowledge gaps among healthcare professionals treating chronic pain, why building a health team can make all the difference, what collaborative care looks like, how we can best support patients in their healing journeys, and more.

לפני 13 weeks30:02

“I always pair the exercise and nutrition plan with the medication because the goal is to foster positive behavior changes to reinforce the changes occurring with the medication. That's what maintains the weight loss.” - Dr. Elizabeth Sharp Losing weight can be very challenging, and many people get stuck in a vicious cycle where they are making positive changes but not seeing their desired results. In these cases, when we understand how to integrate a healthy diet and exercise, having something like a GLP-1 agonist to help jump-start your hormone balance can be a game-changer. Whether it’s pharmaceuticals or nutraceuticals, there is no one-size-fits-all solution, and GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy are no different. They can be highly beneficial when we view them as morally neutral tools, especially in collaboration with practitioners who can put them in context alongside exercise and nutrition. Today, I’m so excited to introduce you to Dr. Elizabeth Sharp, an internal medicine doctor in New York City who recently started her private primary practice with an additional focus on weight management. Dr. Sharp has a preventative mindset that is rare in conventional medicine, and seeing her approach gives me hope that we're turning a corner in the Western medical system. In today’s episode, Dr. Sharp and I discuss the role of GLP-1 agonists in weight management, the importance of lifestyle changes, what an integrative approach to weight loss looks like, the need for preventative health measures, her approach to longevity, how you can reach your long-term health goals, and more.

“When we recognize that a stress and trauma response is about movement in the body, then it makes sense that the recovery response is also about movement.” - Richmond Heath Trauma is an underlying factor for many chronic illnesses. From digestive issues to autoimmune diseases and problems with the nervous system, in many instances, one of our physiologic systems is stuck due to a traumatic pattern. The most important thing to know as a practitioner or a patient is that we don’t have to know where the trauma came from to release it. TRE® is a revolutionary technique that utilizes the body’s natural reflexes to allow you to relax your body, calm your mind, and recover from trauma. Today, I’m joined by Richmond Heath, physiotherapist, TRE® Certification Trainer and National Coordinator of TRE® in Australia. TRE® has had a significant impact on Richmond’s life, and he’s passionate about helping people understand TRE® as a pathway for ongoing growth and development in all areas of our lives. In today’s episode, Richmond and I discuss the connection between trauma and chronic illness, how trauma manifests physiologically, the role of movement in recovery, how we can use the body's natural mechanisms for releasing trauma, how to integrate TRE® into your practice, trauma's impact on health and healing, and more.
