    124. Triggered with Dr. Leslie: Why Migraine Rules Are Driving Women Crazy

    In this first official episode of Triggered with Dr. Leslie, I’m talking about the migraine advice that sounds helpful on the surface but can quietly keep women stuck for years. From “treat early, but don’t treat too often” to “avoid your triggers,” “reduce stress,” and “don’t overdo it,” so much of the advice women get is vague, contradictory, and impossible to actually live by. I break down why these migraine rules are so frustrating, what I believe is actually going on underneath chronic migraines, and why real healing has to go deeper than just managing triggers and symptoms.  If you’re ready to address the root drivers of your migraines, you can book a free consultation at the link below:  https://www.drlesliecisar.com/apply Free Training: 5 Proven Steps to Being Migraine Free (Even if you think you've already tried everything.) https://www.drlesliecisar.com/5SHMN   Connect with us: Website: https://www.drlesliecisar.com/ Free Facebook Group: Healing Migraines Naturally, with Leslie Cisar, ND Ready to try something radically different that actually works?

    123. Why Your Triggers Aren’t the Real Cause Of Your Migraines

    In this episode, I talk about one of the biggest misunderstandings in the migraine world: triggers. If you’ve spent years tracking food, weather, light, sleep, and stress trying to figure out what’s “causing” your migraines, I want to offer you a different lens. I explain why triggers are often not the true cause at all, but instead a sign that your body was already vulnerable and heading toward a migraine. We talk about the difference between avoiding life and actually restoring health, why your body’s resilience matters more than your trigger list, and what it really means to get out of the migraine zone. And if this conversation resonates with you, be sure to also go back and listen to episode 39, where I expand on this same bigger-picture way of understanding migraines: 39.

    122. Why Fibromyalgia and Migraines So Often Show Up Together

    In this episode, I talk about one of the most common questions I hear from women with chronic migraines: “Does anyone else here also have fibromyalgia?” I explain why I don’t see these as two separate problems happening at the same time, but as two expressions of the same deeper issue in the body. I walk through the connection between widespread pain, migraines, substance P, and what I believe is really going on underneath both conditions. If you’ve ever felt like you were unlucky enough to have both, this episode will give you a very different and much more hopeful way to understand your symptoms.

    121. Why So Many Women With Migraines Also Have POTS Symptoms

    POTS is suddenly everywhere right now, and a lot of women are hearing about it in a way that feels confusing, scary, and overwhelming. In this episode, I break down what POTS actually is, why I see it so often alongside chronic migraines, and why I don’t see it as some random mystery your body has thrown at you. I explain what may be happening underneath the dizziness, racing heart, and instability, and why the deeper conversation has to include adrenal function, mineral balance, nutrient absorption, stress, and the body’s overall resilience. If you’ve been dealing with both migraines and POTS symptoms, this episode will help you make much more sense of what your body is trying to do.If this sounds like your story and you’re tired of feeling like your body is a mystery, I’d love to help you look at the deeper root drivers behind your migraines and POTS symptoms.

    120. Why Information Alone Won’t Heal Your Migraines

    I hear this all the time: “Dr. Leslie, just tell me what to do. Tell me what to take.” And I get it. When you’re suffering, you don’t want more explanations, you want relief. But in this episode, I explain why I don’t just hand women a supplement list or a generic protocol, and why doing that can actually make things worse for a body that is already depleted, overwhelmed, and hypersensitive. I talk about why timing matters, why implementation matters more than information, and why real healing usually starts with one small, well-calibrated step instead of a 12-step plan you can’t sustain. If you’ve ever felt like you’re failing because you can’t keep up with all the advice out there, this episode is for you.

    119. Brain Fog at the Red Light: When Migraines Make You Feel Unsafe (And How to Heal)

    In this episode, I break down a post from a woman in my Facebook group who had a deeply unsettling migraine experience while driving. She described feeling disoriented, disconnected, and unable to fully process what was happening around her, and if you’ve ever felt that way during a migraine, I want you to know there’s a reason for it. I explain the two major things I believe are often at play here: underlying metabolic waste and toxin overload in the body, and a form of dissociation that can develop when someone has been living with pain for a very long time. This is an important conversation about safety, brain fog, helplessness, and what chronic migraines are really trying to tell you.   If you’re ready to address the root drivers of your migraines, you can book a free consultation at the link below:  https://www.drlesliecisar.com/apply Free Training: 5 Proven Steps to Being Migraine Free (Even if you think you've already tried everything.) https://www.drlesliecisar.com/5SHMN   Connect with us: Website: https://www.drlesliecisar.com/ Free Facebook Group: Healing Migraines Naturally, with Leslie Cisar, ND Ready to try something radically different that actually works?

    118. Why Migraine Disability Nearly Doubled, And What Nobody Is Explaining

    Something in the migraine research stopped me cold when I was putting this episode together. The percentage of people who get migraines has been flat for 30 years. Same 18% of women, same 6% of men. But the percentage of those people losing significant days to their condition nearly doubled between 2005 and 2016. Same number of people. Twice the suffering. Researchers are baffled by this combination. I'm not. In this episode I walk through exactly why migraine disability is rising while prevalence stays flat, why the conventional neurological framework cannot explain it, and why that same data confirms everything I've been saying about what migraines actually are and what drives them. I also talk about why Migraine Awareness Month, as well meaning as it is, keeps raising awareness for the wrong problem. This one is for anyone who has been told their migraines are just their neurology, their genetics, their wiring. The data tells a different story.

    117. What This Neurologist Got Wrong About Your Migraines (Again)

    I clicked on one migraine reel a few weeks ago, and now my Facebook feed will not let me forget it. Dr. Painkiller is back,  this time telling women that the things you think are helping your migraines are actually making them worse. Sleeping in. Skipping meals. Not taking your meds fast enough. And of course… your “migraine brain” loves routine, not chaos. In this episode, I’m breaking down what he gets wrong and why this kind of advice keeps women stuck. You don’t have a defective brain. You have a body that has lost its resilience, and the standard neurology playbook of “take the medication early, never miss a dose, stay on a perfect schedule” is exactly what turns episodic migraines into chronic ones. I share what’s really going on when sleeping in or waking up too early triggers a migraine, why “rebound” isn’t a personal failure, and what your body is actually asking for instead.
