Welcome to The Nest Podcast: a place where we have down-to-earth, uplifting conversations about women’s health, healing, our inherent feminine wisdom and the magic that happens when we decide to be the hero of our life and not the victim of it. Because you, my friend, have more power over your health and well-being than you’ve been led to believe and I’m passionate about helping you and others reclaim your sovereignty. I’m your host Dr. Maryska Taylor and I believe that healing isn’t a matter of conquering an illness but a journey of personal discovery and transformation. Here we’ll explore a wide range of topics from holistic nutrition, metabolic health and balancing your hormones to mind-body medicine, and how intuition, spirituality and consciousness are revolutionizing health and healing. I interview my favorite people from fellow doctors and wellness practitioners, entrepreneurs, researchers, moms, my best girlfriends and family. Through a combo of solo episodes and interviews, the goal remains the same: giving you the goods so you’re empowered to nourish and care for yourself in a way that’s right for you, allowing your own intuitive wisdom to lead the way to a more authentically, fulfilling life. So sit back, open your heart and mind, and get ready for a dose of inspiration to motivate you along your healing journey. The Nest Podcast is a safe place to land, while being nourished and empowered along the way.

    Healing our Wounds to Heal our Wombs

    Welcome to episode 10! On this episode I’m joined by Ali Ramos, or as some know her “That Endo Gal”. Ali shares her incredible story of healing her endometriosis by healing her trauma and deep wounds from childhood. After 13 years of living with clinical stage 4 endometriosis, countless treatments, 5 failed surgeries, multiple hormone therapies, and living life on 6-8 different medications daily, she hit a rock bottom.  In 2018 after returning from a year of traveling with her now husband, she was admitted to California's UC Davis pain clinic. In order to be a participant, she had to agree to return to therapy. As fate would have it, she was paired with someone that practices Psychoneuroimmunology (a mind-body discipline that has evolved in the last 40 years to study the relationship between immunity, the endocrine system, and the central and peripheral nervous systems). At the time she had no idea what this would mean, but after 65 therapy sessions over the span of 3 years, she was able to move through her adverse childhood events, reduce her chronic pain symptoms, work to alleviate insomnia, and as she says, "meet her Inner Child."  Her symptoms of Endometriosis have been in remission since November of 2020, and after 27 months of medication tapers, she is finally free of pharmaceuticals. Since then Ali has left the career that she now says was reinforcing her co-dependent patterns and has created her own virtual services to help other women suffering with Endometriosis.  In this episode we cover: Ali shares her journey with severe endometriosis and how she found healing through holistic and alternative means including trauma work, counseling and psychedelics.  Endometriosis: what it is, and alternative ways to heal it Why we need to “feel it to heal it” and how the mind-body connection can help offer hope for those suffering with endometriosis  How our emotional wounds live in the body and can manifest as dis-ease The limitations of conventional medicine and how holistic & chinese medicine, cyclical living and connecting to our innate feminine blueprint (aka infradian rhythm) can be incredibly healing addressing the root cause of ‘dis-ease’ How every woman needs to know about her menstrual cycle and biological blueprint/infradian rhythm in order to be empowered to heal and thrive   Connect with Ali Ramos: Instagram: @thatendogal Website: https://www.aliramos.co   Connect with Dr. Maryska: www.drmaryskataylor.com Instagram: @drmaryskataylornd  Learn more about my work & programs: https://drmaryskataylor.com/work-with-me   Sign-up for Notes in Rhythm: https://dr-maryska-taylor.mykajabi.com/Notes-In-Rhythm-Sign-Up
