- 0:09[SPEAKER_01]: So it's like, it never, it actually where, yes, people's brain stopped developing in their early 20s, the actual way for female brains is because the primary menopause our brain has to rewire itself because of how we operate.
- 0:20[SPEAKER_01]: We don't have the same hormones we used to.
- 0:22[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome to the be it till you see it podcast, where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring.
- 0:30[SPEAKER_00]: I'm also Logan, prize instructor and fitness business coach.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_00]: I've trained thousands of people around the world, and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt.
- 0:41[SPEAKER_00]: My friends, action brings clarity.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_00]: and it's the antidote to fear.
- 0:48[SPEAKER_00]: Each week, my guess will bring bold, executable, intrinsic, and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and be it until you see it.
- 0:58[SPEAKER_00]: It's a practice, not a perfect, let's get started.
- 1:05[SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back to the be it till you see it interview recap on my co-host and life Brad and I are going to dig into the grounded combo I had with Brie Gadner last episode.
- 1:13[SPEAKER_01]: If you miss that one, you fucked up and or your brand new.
- 1:17[SPEAKER_02]: No, or you're not grounded.
- 1:18[SPEAKER_02]: That's all.
- 1:19[SPEAKER_02]: You're floating.
- 1:19[SPEAKER_01]: You're floating.
- 1:21[SPEAKER_01]: If it sounds like I'm like on the brink of a sneeze, I am.
- 1:23[SPEAKER_01]: This.
- 1:24[SPEAKER_01]: My scientists are kicking this allergy season.
- 1:28[SPEAKER_01]: It's kicking my ass.
- 1:28[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just gonna say it and we can't prolong this any longer We tried we're here We're drunk and if you're looking at this on the internet.
- 1:35[SPEAKER_01]: I look like I got punched in the face.
- 1:37[SPEAKER_01]: I understand So we're going with it, and that's just how it's gonna be today is April 2nd and it's autism acceptance day It's really important that you take a look at the different things going on in autism world because There are some groups who are problematic and their autism
- 1:54[SPEAKER_01]: Awareness and then there is this one which is Autism Acceptance Day.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_01]: So I checked out with some of our amazing people in our lives who have children, artistic and they're excited.
- 2:03[SPEAKER_01]: We're talking about this day.
- 2:04[SPEAKER_01]: So Autism Acceptance Day, also known as World Autism Day, is observed annually adopted by the United Nations in 2007.
- 2:11[SPEAKER_01]: The purpose of this day is to raise awareness and promote acceptance of people with autism spectrum disorder.
- 2:16[SPEAKER_01]: It also presents an opportunity to tear down misconceptions and false notions about the disability.
- 2:22[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so I decided to just do a little homework because we hear about like being on the spectrum, you know, and I'll put that Nair quotes even though I shouldn't have because it's actually, it is spectrum.
- 2:32[SPEAKER_02]: So I did that wrong, but what is being on this way?
- 2:36[SPEAKER_01]: You're like, Joey, thank you.
- 2:39[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you with my air quotes.
- 2:40[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_01]: You're amazing.
- 2:46[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, so on the spectrum refers to being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, which is a neurodevelopmental condition affecting communication, social interaction, and behavior.
- 2:56[SPEAKER_02]: It means a person experiences the world differently, whether unique, wide range of strengths, and challenges rather than a single linear progression of severity.
- 3:06[SPEAKER_02]: So it can present itself in many different ways.
- 3:10[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, just like ADHD presents a different way.
- 3:12[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, sure.
- 3:13[SPEAKER_02]: But I think that, like, the most obvious is like, we've all, you know, if you haven't seen the movie Rain Man, you know, that's one we're seeing.
- 3:19[SPEAKER_02]: But effectively, that's one way we see it.
- 3:21[SPEAKER_02]: We also see like that autism can be like completely socially debilitating, you know, or you could be like our neighbor across the street who 100% functional.
- 3:31[SPEAKER_02]: as family.
- 3:32[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and definitely autistic.
- 3:33[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.
- 3:34[SPEAKER_01]: He, he holds on to zero emotions.
- 3:36[SPEAKER_01]: I know if he, if he, this guy for listening high, well, I, wow, it's me.
- 3:39[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, have you been married 20 years if you hold on to no, it's interesting.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_01]: But I, I think that what's really important to me for bringing this up is one.
- 3:47[SPEAKER_01]: where because we have more research and more information, it's not that there's more autistic people.
- 3:54[SPEAKER_01]: It's just that we're a new test for things.
- 3:56[SPEAKER_01]: You actually can get more like people get the labels that they need, and because we have information on how to test sooner, this means that people can get the help that they need, so that they can have a life that they want to live.
- 4:09[SPEAKER_01]: Whatever that help is, help can be different for each person, and it's very interesting because
- 4:14[SPEAKER_01]: Brad and I are diagnosed with ADHD, and people are thinking, if you're on the internet, I can feel like a trend for people over 40 feet, I don't have ADHD, but actually, as a child growing up, Brad would present it as ADHD.
- 4:28[SPEAKER_01]: They just deny no symptoms.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_01]: But girls present differently, but they still have it.
- 4:32[SPEAKER_01]: So it's like I got ADHD.
- 4:33[SPEAKER_01]: I have always had it.
- 4:35[SPEAKER_01]: I have all the symptoms and signs that women would present, but that's not what was happening in the 90s.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_01]: And so I just want to say,
- 4:41[SPEAKER_01]: It's, I think it's really important because there's an asshole in the government who's making up shit about autism and autistic people and he can fuck himself because it's actually not helpful and it's a help for the people who are autistic and actually like when you when you
- 5:01[SPEAKER_01]: anything, whether it is the flu or COVID or some sort of diagnosis, it actually causes harm to the people who have it or it is it and it actually means that like they don't get the help that they need and then people get scared about things that are not should not be fearful.
- 5:19[SPEAKER_02]: Well, also, you mentioned, you know, ADHD, ADHD and autism are linked, like they're, they're definitely, well, it's all in the internet.
- 5:26[SPEAKER_02]: There's definitely an overlap.
- 5:28[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, well, I'm pretty sure.
- 5:30[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, actually, there's audio HD.
- 5:32[SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah, that's a you DHT audio HD instead of just ADHD.
- 5:36[SPEAKER_01]: If you look up audio HD, I have like,
- 5:38[SPEAKER_01]: Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick,
- 5:54[SPEAKER_01]: I just want to say like because we've been more information now, it shouldn't be a scary thing to have someone in your life who's autistic.
- 6:01[SPEAKER_01]: It shouldn't be like, oh, I'm so bummed out, it's actually like, isn't it great that we can have information so that we can help people in the way that need to be helped, whether you're neuro-typical or neuro-devergent, we all have different needs and then you can advocate for yourself, our neighbor, he only got diagnosed.
- 6:16[SPEAKER_01]: as autistic recently because he's like, I just want to know about myself more and I'm like, well, it allows you to advocate for yourself.
- 6:21[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but it just allows you to hit his daughter's autistic and and she presents very much differently.
- 6:26[SPEAKER_01]: And it just allows you to be like, hey, when people like, oh, you're really rude there.
- 6:30[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, okay, I'm not trying to be rude.
- 6:32[SPEAKER_01]: This is like, so I just think it really helps people.
- 6:35[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, let's like taking any kind of personality test.
- 6:37[SPEAKER_01]: I just let you know more about yourself.
- 6:38[SPEAKER_01]: So I just want to say that because I got furious.
- 6:42[SPEAKER_01]: They're talking about not taking fucking Tylenol or something like that.
- 6:44[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like, please, pregnant mama's, you don't want a fever when you're pregnant.
- 6:49[SPEAKER_01]: And that's one of the safest things you can take.
- 6:50[SPEAKER_01]: And so I just, I, I'm not an expert on this.
- 6:53[SPEAKER_01]: I have an email of an expert and advocate for autism.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm hoping to get them on the podcast because I'd like to make sure I'm talking about this in the correct way and hopefully I didn't say any words incorrectly.
- 7:03[SPEAKER_01]: It was without intention if that happened is I do think that like,
- 7:07[SPEAKER_01]: There's just a weird thing going on that makes me feel like people are being treated in a way that's not acceptable.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_02]: It's just one more way to otherwise people.
- 7:15[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, ignorance.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just crazy here.
- 7:18[SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, we love you.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_01]: All right.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_02]: Well, moving on.

- 8:04[SPEAKER_01]: Like it's all overhead stuff.
- 8:06[SPEAKER_01]: And I've seen all the different teachers classes.
- 8:07[SPEAKER_01]: And so if you Let's go say inversions, inversions.
- 8:10[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 8:10[SPEAKER_01]: Like inversions.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it's it I guess you say no you're not doing like handstands and stuff, but no, but we're we're going to talk about we're going to each teacher is going on with that theme and so we have some we have like one class which is like no inversions we have one like yes, no, maybe so so no matter where you are in your practice there is going to be information for you and basically our goal is to take away the fear that many people have of getting hurt or hurting their next and actually understanding what connections you need to do any of the upside down exercises do you want to go to opc.me slash events.

- 9:41[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 9:41[SPEAKER_02]: So we love you.
- 9:42[SPEAKER_02]: We would love to have you come join us.
- 9:44[SPEAKER_02]: We have already listed the dates for 2027.
- 9:47[SPEAKER_02]: Um, so get yourself on the wait list there so that you are the first to know when things are happening.
- 9:53[SPEAKER_02]: We're more open in the doors for 2027.
- 9:55[SPEAKER_02]: Dates are on the website right now and you can kind of pen that into your calendar so you don't accidentally schedule something else.
- 10:01[SPEAKER_02]: We would love to have you come doing this, but I'm really proud of our team for all the effort that they did, um, you know, making sure everything went smoothly and we're really fired up for this year's trip.
- 10:10[SPEAKER_02]: It's going to be fantastic.
- 10:12[SPEAKER_02]: It's amazing.
- 10:12[SPEAKER_02]: Great job team.
- 10:19[SPEAKER_02]: All right, before we get going, we had a question from Sophie Peer.
- 10:24[SPEAKER_02]: She said, hey, have a question.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_02]: For the Sunday live on YouTube, my hamstrings are very short and stiff, and I do not have a lot of strength in them.
- 10:32[SPEAKER_02]: I would love to stretch and strengthen them more, but to help my practice, I know I can do the ballet stretches on the ladder barrel, but what would you recommend?
- 10:40[SPEAKER_02]: What kind of other exercises would you recommend that I could work on for this?
- 10:45[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so we actually didn't haul YouTube up YouTube video about flexibility and stretching and the truth is is that just like hanging out over your leg and stretching out like you remember when you're in pee, but you're leg up on a bench and you're just like lean over it's more of a passive stretching and yes you do feel more flexible after that, but as far as creating flexibility that lasts a long time you want more of an active dynamic stretch or active static and so what you want to do is think about your single straight leg stretch on the mat.
- 11:13[SPEAKER_01]: I want you pushing your leg into your arms.
- 11:15[SPEAKER_01]: Most people are just pulling on their leg versus actually pushing the leg into their hands.
- 11:20[SPEAKER_01]: And that's gonna be a great one on the mat.
- 11:23[SPEAKER_01]: Also, how you're doing your roll up and your spine stretch forward, you want to dig your heels down to activate those muscles on the back of your leg and then around forward over them.
- 11:32[SPEAKER_01]: Most people are actually just stretching their back and they're not really stretching their hamstrings.
- 11:36[SPEAKER_01]: The other thing I would say on the reformer is your tree.
- 11:38[SPEAKER_01]: Same thing, you're pulling on that leg with your arms, it's just be pushing that leg into your hands.
- 11:43[SPEAKER_01]: It's going to be super helpful.
- 11:45[SPEAKER_01]: And then when you're looking at your elephant, are you really actually reaching your heels down or you're just pushing your knees back?
- 11:49[SPEAKER_01]: So without seeing you Sophie, some people have some hyper mobility and the joints and tightness and the muscles.
- 11:57[SPEAKER_01]: And so you just be making sure are you straight in your leg from, you know, like your leg, or you actually just pushing your knee back.
- 12:02[SPEAKER_01]: But anytime you're actually stretching your hamstrings, if you activate them and stretch them, it's gonna create the flexibility you're looking at.
- 12:08[SPEAKER_01]: You're looking for, and it just is gonna take a lot longer than you think.
- 12:12[SPEAKER_02]: Takes time, it takes time, but great question.
- 12:14[SPEAKER_02]: Keep those questions coming.
- 12:15[SPEAKER_02]: If you have a question for the pod, text us at 310-95553-4 or submit it to beitpod.com slash questions where you can also leave a win.
- 12:27[SPEAKER_02]: So questions or a win go to beitpod.com slash questions.
- 12:31[SPEAKER_02]: Stick around.
- 12:31[SPEAKER_02]: We'll be right back.
- 12:32[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to start talking about Brie again.
- 12:36[SPEAKER_02]: Let's talk about Brieagad.
- 12:37[SPEAKER_02]: Brieagad is a functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner often known as the period whisperer.
- 12:44[SPEAKER_02]: And that one does go in air quotes.
- 12:46[SPEAKER_02]: And her work centers on female hormonal health, during midlife and parameda pause.
- 12:50[SPEAKER_02]: She has women make sense of hormonal changes so they can regain energy, feel clear in their bodies, and stop feeling like everything is suddenly broken.
- 12:58[SPEAKER_02]: She's also the host of the period whisperer podcast, where she breaks down the complex hormonal topics in a way that's practical, grounded and actually usable.
- 13:06[SPEAKER_02]: What would you what like do you remember this conversation and immediately and like all the things I was listening to it going What am I about to listen to?
- 13:12[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
- 13:13[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I know.
- 13:14[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm just gonna make keep bringing payment A pause experts on here so that you can understand why the hell you should not make noise sometimes But you can make noise other times
- 13:23[SPEAKER_02]: Make noise.
- 13:24[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like sometimes you make tons of noise at night and I do nothing at night.
- 13:27[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, and sometimes you make a little bit of noise and I come marching.
- 13:30[SPEAKER_01]: Grunting like down the hall.
- 13:32[SPEAKER_02]: What are we talking about here?
- 13:34[SPEAKER_01]: Well, we're talking about payment a pause.
- 13:36[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 13:36[SPEAKER_01]: So, Priya is she's a period whisperer, but she like really focuses on like
- 13:40[SPEAKER_01]: kind of help you understand the changes that are going on in your body as you get older because as we talked about, mid-appearment of pause is like reverse puberty and I think that's a really interesting way of thinking about it.
- 13:49[SPEAKER_01]: Great way to think about it.
- 13:50[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah and also by the way, ladies, there's like so much information that like after 50, our brain is like even better than it ever was and like women over 50 because your brain is rewiring so it's like it never, it actually like where
- 14:02[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, people's brain stop developing in their early 20s, the actually for female brains as because the periodmenopause are brain has to rewire itself because of how we operate.
- 14:11[SPEAKER_01]: We don't have the same hormones that we used to.
- 14:13[SPEAKER_01]: And so just in case you didn't know, periodmenopause is like the gradual retired of the ovaries, which places a significant additional workload on the body's other systems.
- 14:23[SPEAKER_01]: And it's a major biological transition that demands more energy without providing more in return, which means you need to have even to have a lot extra
- 14:32[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, crazy.
- 14:33[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, a gradual retiring of the ovaries.
- 14:36[SPEAKER_02]: I've never heard of described that way.
- 14:37[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to say a lot of sense.
- 14:39[SPEAKER_01]: I really like that.
- 14:39[SPEAKER_01]: Well, because you could just say, you know, I mean, we've had other payment of past experts on the show.
- 14:43[SPEAKER_01]: But...
- 14:44[SPEAKER_01]: you can be impairment-a-pause for average of 10 years, Brad, because it could take a long time.
- 14:49[SPEAKER_02]: Well, sure.
- 14:50[SPEAKER_02]: Because what I've heard more than anything else is that there's a biological clock to have a kid.
- 14:56[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 14:56[SPEAKER_02]: What does that actually mean in practicality?
- 14:59[SPEAKER_02]: That means something is intentionally no longer going to function.
- 15:02[SPEAKER_02]: So that is the gradual retiring of the ovaries.
- 15:05[SPEAKER_01]: But did you know you can actually get pregnant during impairment-a-pause, because your ovaries are still working, they're just gradually retiring.
- 15:11[SPEAKER_01]: So you could do that.
- 15:12[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I guess that makes sense.
- 15:14[SPEAKER_01]: I have, I've just been hearing people getting pregnant in their 40s, you know, so presumably at the 30s, yeah, presumably after 37, you're in Perryman, a positive goal.
- 15:22[SPEAKER_01]: And here's the thing with great doctors, you can actually keep me pregnant.
- 15:24[SPEAKER_01]: You can actually keep your period for a long time.
- 15:26[SPEAKER_01]: They're women, they're 60s who still get it.
- 15:29[SPEAKER_02]: And is that a goal?
- 15:30[SPEAKER_01]: Well, actually, there's a lot of information that the longer you have your period, the better it is for brain and heart and a lot of different stuff because we've had Dr. Jill something on the pod, sort of the nest sloshenberg, sloshen something, she talked about like a student like within two years after, once you, once you hit the one year mark without having a period, it means so technically you're no longer empowering menopause, you're just postmenopause or menopausal when
- 15:56[SPEAKER_01]: It's been 12 months since your last period.
- 15:58[SPEAKER_01]: So you went 12 months with no periods and you are done.
- 16:02[SPEAKER_01]: Your ovaries don't work, you're cooked.
- 16:04[SPEAKER_01]: And within two years of that, a lot of women see that they have the same heart issues that men have.
- 16:10[SPEAKER_01]: And so yeah, I would like to keep my period as long as possible.
- 16:13[SPEAKER_01]: Keep your brain good, get your heart good.
- 16:15[SPEAKER_01]: It's a great way to get rid of like waste and plastics that are in the body.
- 16:19[SPEAKER_02]: Oh.
- 16:19[SPEAKER_02]: Dr. Jan Schroeder.
- 16:21[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Schroeder.
- 16:21[SPEAKER_01]: I was so close.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_01]: I was really close.
- 16:24[SPEAKER_02]: Dr. Jan Schroeder, episode 418 and 419 for the recap.
- 16:28[SPEAKER_02]: What?
- 16:28[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, she's a professor and past chair of the Department of Kinesiology at Long Beach State University.
- 16:34[SPEAKER_02]: Good memory.
- 16:35[SPEAKER_02]: Dr. Jan Schroeder.
- 16:37[SPEAKER_02]: Anyways, I'm so lucky.
- 16:39[SPEAKER_01]: Look, here's a deal.
- 16:40[SPEAKER_01]: A pyramid of post feels like a burden, but it's like the gift we didn't know we needed because ladies are actually a ton of different research of like that they're now that they're actually researching women, not that the U.S. is they killed that one, but there are other people researching that because you want to know what, like a billion women are going through pyramid of post at the same time and people like, oh, we can make money off of this if we just research it.
- 16:59[SPEAKER_01]: So there's a lot of information out there and
- 17:02[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's important to get to know it and not be so frustrated by it because when you know what you're going through and what your symptoms are, they're different than other people.
- 17:09[SPEAKER_01]: There is help out there, you know, and I've been literally raising my hand for all the help, but I'll take that one.
- 17:16[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I'll do that one.
- 17:17[SPEAKER_01]: Because you know what, we have this one life to live.
- 17:19[SPEAKER_01]: You're all good.
- 17:20[SPEAKER_01]: When do you love?
- 17:21[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, you do, I only have one life to live.
- 17:24[SPEAKER_02]: And I agree, we should feel good.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, so we've heard a sleep debt, right?
- 17:29[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 17:30[SPEAKER_02]: So I thought it was interesting that Bria was talking about health debt, right?
- 17:35[SPEAKER_02]: And she explained that health debt is when the energy you supply your body, no longer meets the energy demand of your body, right?
- 17:42[SPEAKER_02]: So energy supply equals sleep, nutrition, joy, and purpose
- 17:47[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm going to repeat that.
- 17:49[SPEAKER_02]: Energy supply equals sleep, nutrition, joy, and purpose.
- 17:55[SPEAKER_02]: Joy and purpose, right?
- 17:56[SPEAKER_02]: So really intriguing to me that like your energy supply has so much to do with like happiness and like...
- 18:03[SPEAKER_02]: focus on something that keeps us going in addition to physical like sleep and the food that reading the nutrition, right?
- 18:10[SPEAKER_02]: So she said that women often run a deficit for years before the symptoms actually show up.
- 18:15[SPEAKER_02]: And when they do show up, probably like we're trying to put a band aid on something that's like years incoming, but Perry Metapos actually makes that health debt impossible to ignore because it exacerbates everything, right?
- 18:28[SPEAKER_01]: So I I couldn't agree
- 18:30[SPEAKER_01]: I think the reason why I didn't think I had ADHD is because I had all these different things that I was doing to like live in the world and then because of Parrymenopause, it's like an exacerbated the issue which is like as an ADHD person, I don't have a stimulant as Parrymenopause, my estrogen levels are going lower, which means I'm now doubly low.
- 18:49[SPEAKER_01]: And so just like shows like this is why you can't focus.
- 18:52[SPEAKER_01]: Hello, you never were, but now you really can't
- 18:56[SPEAKER_01]: I actually want to highlight the youths said that twice, sleep, nutrition, joy, purpose.
- 19:00[SPEAKER_01]: There was one, this one nutrition is suited to retreat with me back in Ohio, and she talked about how sometimes people will eat.
- 19:07[SPEAKER_01]: like candy, sugar, chocolate because they actually didn't play or have joy in their day.
- 19:13[SPEAKER_01]: And so they're trying to fulfill this need with food versus like going on a swing or, you know, play a game, or laughing out loud, like something else that has to do with joy and purpose, you know.
- 19:27[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I just thought it was great.
- 19:28[SPEAKER_02]: I think that we easily can forget that
- 19:35[SPEAKER_02]: being happy, being positive, joy.
- 19:37[SPEAKER_02]: It really does shift our outlook, our mind, and then ultimately our body.
- 19:44[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I also smell highlight, like, we are human beings.
- 19:48[SPEAKER_01]: And so many of people are doing the human doing thing.
- 19:50[SPEAKER_01]: And so like, especially in paraminopause, or even just like when you're going through your cycle, it really does force you to go, oh, I should take care of myself right now.
- 19:59[SPEAKER_01]: Like the week before my period, I have to like slow down and do less
- 20:05[SPEAKER_01]: And that's okay.
- 20:06[SPEAKER_01]: If I just do less, I'm a less of a bitch.
- 20:09[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that's a great note to wrap that up.
- 20:12[SPEAKER_02]: Stick around.
- 20:12[SPEAKER_02]: We'll be right back.
- 20:14[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to get into those beard action items that we had with Breeagad.
- 20:19[SPEAKER_02]: The period was parr.
- 20:20[SPEAKER_02]: All right.
- 20:21[SPEAKER_02]: Finally, welcome back.
- 20:23[SPEAKER_02]: Let's dig into those beard action items.
- 20:25[SPEAKER_02]: We were just talking about what bold, executable intrinsic or targeted action items.
- 20:28[SPEAKER_02]: Can we take away from your combo with Breeagad?
- 20:31[SPEAKER_02]: She said,
- 20:34[SPEAKER_02]: We have to start with the basics, okay?
- 20:36[SPEAKER_02]: So what are the basics?
- 20:37[SPEAKER_02]: She talked about the four core pillars that we actually need in place.
- 20:40[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm gonna just review those four things.
- 20:42[SPEAKER_02]: Sleep, here's what we do about sleep.
- 20:44[SPEAKER_02]: Hold an actual space for sleep.
- 20:47[SPEAKER_02]: She said, aim for about eight hours and keep bed times and wake up times consistent.
- 20:52[SPEAKER_02]: So get on a routine.
- 20:54[SPEAKER_02]: Even 80% of the time being consistent will make a difference for you.
- 20:58[SPEAKER_02]: So, but I like this idea of holding a space for sleep.
- 21:00[SPEAKER_02]: Less than I often talk about sleep being a rock
- 21:04[SPEAKER_02]: meaning that it has to be scheduled first, right?
- 21:07[SPEAKER_02]: It can't just be like, oops, I got, you know, I'm accidentally getting some sleep now, but you have to actually be planning ahead.
- 21:14[SPEAKER_02]: Nutrition.
- 21:15[SPEAKER_02]: She said, eat with consistency.
- 21:17[SPEAKER_02]: Have your first meal within two hours of waking, then eat every four to five hours.
- 21:21[SPEAKER_02]: Your meals should actually keep you full, number five more energy than they take away.
- 21:26[SPEAKER_02]: So your meals should actually provide you energy.
- 21:28[SPEAKER_02]: So that there's some nutrition stuff there that you have to dig into, but they should be providing you energy movement.
- 21:34[SPEAKER_02]: Prioritize functional movement, like walking yoga and Pilates, using intense exercise for energy is like using a credit card for energy, you don't actually have.
- 21:46[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
- 21:46[SPEAKER_02]: It's like using a credit card for energy you don't actually have.
- 21:49[SPEAKER_02]: So she's saying functional movement not necessarily intense movement, right?
- 21:53[SPEAKER_01]: Because intense movement is actually going to spike your cortisol and if you do it the wrong time of the day or if you've already had a high cortisol day, you're actually causing yourself more harm than good.
- 22:04[SPEAKER_01]: I would say if you're especially if you're over 40, this is going to be from someone who loves to work out and love.
- 22:10[SPEAKER_01]: So lift weights.
- 22:11[SPEAKER_01]: I have to be very intentional.
- 22:14[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so, and then she said, joy and stress management, joy is one of the biggest energy currency currencies that we have for our body.
- 22:22[SPEAKER_02]: And you need it daily to really stress and create space for it.
- 22:25[SPEAKER_02]: And to tie this to what I was saying before the break, purpose.
- 22:30[SPEAKER_02]: can really help you find that joy.
- 22:32[SPEAKER_02]: When you have a purpose, whether that is donating your time at the SPCA, or having a job you really love, or whatever it might be, kids, family job, like life, art, travel, music, whatever it is, when you have purpose behind you, it will help you find that joy even more.
- 22:51[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I agree, I agree with all that stuff.
- 22:54[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, what about you?
- 22:54[SPEAKER_01]: You have to slow down and be still.
- 22:59[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it definitely fits with scheduling time for sleep.
- 23:02[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 23:02[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you know what I do.
- 23:03[SPEAKER_01]: Here's the thing.
- 23:04[SPEAKER_01]: This is actually since I talked to Brigadette.
- 23:06[SPEAKER_01]: My girlfriend's turned me on to this thing.
- 23:08[SPEAKER_01]: We probably heard ads for it.
- 23:09[SPEAKER_01]: But I drink that moon brew.
- 23:10[SPEAKER_01]: And they have an extra one.
- 23:12[SPEAKER_01]: They have one that's like an extra sleep one.
- 23:14[SPEAKER_01]: So you can also look at that.
- 23:15[SPEAKER_01]: But like I drink that moon brew.
- 23:16[SPEAKER_01]: And it's a nice little nighttime routine.
- 23:19[SPEAKER_01]: Like let's my brain now.
- 23:20[SPEAKER_01]: Like hey, we're getting ready for sleep.
- 23:21[SPEAKER_01]: But you know when it's got all this good stuff, the healthy sleep.
- 23:25[SPEAKER_01]: However, highly recommended you go to
- 23:28[SPEAKER_01]: slash less a Logan 2 0 and then you can use less a Logan 2 0 to save.
- 23:32[SPEAKER_01]: But anyways, I love that.
- 23:33[SPEAKER_02]: I love that link in the show notes.
- 23:35[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think it's really difficult.
- 23:37[SPEAKER_01]: My busy body ladies.
- 23:38[SPEAKER_01]: We've to slow down and we still but like even if you just like
- 23:41[SPEAKER_01]: have a moment where you just go sit in your yard or sit on your porch and sit your coffee or you're used in the morning ideally or you step your moon route like just sit still for a second like amazing ideas come to you and it really does not just like get you answers about what you're looking for which wouldn't do next or what that purpose could be but it helps it helps get the brain ready for what's next so I like that start with foundation so do the basics instead of saving ahead if you can't do the basics as you're saying to move to step three which is
- 24:11[SPEAKER_01]: If you're someone who likes to be like, I've advanced.
- 24:13[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to dance practitioner.
- 24:14[SPEAKER_01]: I love those people who come to play.
- 24:15[SPEAKER_01]: I want to be getting it in our class.
- 24:17[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to dance move on.
- 24:18[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, I did a class that was too easy.
- 24:20[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to dance.
- 24:22[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to ask for help.
- 24:23[SPEAKER_01]: So I have been asking for tons of help this year.
- 24:27[SPEAKER_01]: And it's only March 1st.
- 24:29[SPEAKER_01]: That would be a recording this year.
- 24:30[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to say a pro second.
- 24:31[SPEAKER_01]: But like, I have been to, like, 17 docs, but it's already, but I have been asking for help.
- 24:35[SPEAKER_01]: Because you want to know what?
- 24:37[SPEAKER_01]: Some things aren't working anymore.
- 24:38[SPEAKER_01]: Things that used to work have stopped working.
- 24:41[SPEAKER_01]: And so it's like, instead of just suffering in silence, you can ask for help.
- 24:45[SPEAKER_01]: You can ask for a bad help.
- 24:47[SPEAKER_01]: You can ask for your doctor's help.
- 24:48[SPEAKER_01]: Like, stop trying to pretend like you know everything.
- 24:50[SPEAKER_01]: You know, and also, yes, I love asking the internet for stuff, but oh my God, you can easily end up in a Mahah fuckin' algorithm.
- 24:58[SPEAKER_01]: So you gotta be mindful because,
- 25:01[SPEAKER_01]: Remember, studying women's health is a very new thing, and so there's a lot of misinformation out there.
- 25:06[SPEAKER_01]: It's better to talk to people who actually do study it and do work with people who are going with who you're going through.
- 25:11[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, I had to switch got ecologists in the last six months because I wanted to get hormone therapy from them.
- 25:18[SPEAKER_01]: And so I switched to someone who specializes in that.
- 25:21[SPEAKER_01]: Love my guy to college has had before.
- 25:22[SPEAKER_01]: She's amazing.
- 25:23[SPEAKER_01]: Send a ton of people to her.
- 25:24[SPEAKER_01]: But because I'm now in the hormone track, I switched to someone who specializes in that.
- 25:28[SPEAKER_01]: And that is been smart.
- 25:29[SPEAKER_01]: So helpful.
- 25:30[SPEAKER_01]: But let's do appointments.
- 25:31[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, this is bothering me.
- 25:32[SPEAKER_01]: She's like, let's try this thing.
- 25:33[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, oh my god, is it that easy?
- 25:36[SPEAKER_01]: And if it's not that easy, you've the wrong person in your corner.
- 25:39[SPEAKER_01]: That's why I have to say.
- 25:40[SPEAKER_01]: So, Brigad, thanks for being the period whisperer, thanks for all your amazing vise.
- 25:44[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

- 27:34[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
- 27:35[SPEAKER_02]: Let's talk about Bria Gad.
- 27:49[SPEAKER_01]: It's just that that light is like causing me to sneeze, I think.
- 27:51[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
- 27:52[SPEAKER_02]: So we are awkwardly talking about Brad making noise because you did no context.
- 27:57[SPEAKER_02]: So making noise.
- 27:58[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 27:59[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you know, you should just know these things.
- 28:01[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
