    S3 E15: The Energetics of Infertility & Healing Beyond the Physical with Dr. Laura Graye

    *New upload! Apologies for the technical difficulties! If you’ve ever wondered why you’re “doing everything right” on your fertility journey — tracking cycles, eating clean, taking supplements — and still not getting answers, this episode is for you. We sat down in person with our longtime teacher and healer⁠, Dr. Laura Graye⁠, to explore the energetics and spirituality of fertility and infertility. This conversation goes deep — into consciousness, self-manifested reality, spirit babies, and the true meaning of creation. We talk about how trauma, stress, and belief systems affect the body, what it means to co-create with consciousness, and why creativity and truth-telling can unblock energy in ways nothing else can. If you’re navigating infertility, trying to conceive, or simply curious about how energy and spirit shape your health, this is a conversation that will expand your mind, soothe your soul, and probably give you chills (in the best way). ✨ Whether you’re in the middle of infertility, trying to conceive, or simply exploring your own spiritual awakening, this episode is a reminder: you are source.

    S3 E13: Navigating Summer Burnout and Ways We're Winding Down into Fall

    In this episode, we’re talking about why the end-of-summer hustle leaves us feeling fried, how summer ironically mirrors our “inner summer” (aka ovulation phase) where we can easily burn out too if we're doing too much! We chat about what we can do to actually ground ourselves before we crash. Think: slowing down, cozy transitions, nervous system resets, and creating little systems that make life way less chaotic. Oh, and yes, apple cider donuts make the cut. TOPICS COVERED ➡ The reality of summer burnout (and why it’s a whole vibe) ➡ How your cycle’s ovulation phase = your inner summer ➡ The shadow side of staying in “go-go-go” mode too long ➡ Practical grounding rituals for fall (hot drinks, slower mornings, bone broth, walks, pressure mats, etc.) ➡ Why setting systems calms your nervous system ➡ Learning to say “joyful yeses” instead of all the yeses ➡ Goals that ground you vs. goals that drain you ➡ Social media boundaries + phone detox habits ➡ Comparison trap (and why you don’t need to live like everyone’s Instagram) ➡ The beauty of shifting seasons + cycles RESOURCES ➡ Pranamat for recovery + relaxation (code BALANCEDBEYARS) ➡ Bone broth + nourishing soups (We love FOND bone broth code JUSTAPHASE!)

    Today we’re diving into Part 2 of Alaina’s PCOS story AND what she actually does every single day to keep her PCOS in check (to the point where she actually forgets she has PCOS....no lie.) We’re talking about the hacks and habits that make a real difference: balancing blood sugar without stressing over food rules, the golden combo of walking + weight training, why you should never eat your carbs ‘nakeyyyyy,’ and the nervous system tools that help keep stress in check. We’ll get into supplements we swear by — like inositol, magnesium, and omega-3s — plus gut health, fermented foods, and even colostrum. You’ll hear why protein is queen, why detox basics like sweating and pooping matter, and how quick fixes stack up against long-term lifestyle shifts. If you’ve ever wondered what daily routines can actually move the needle with PCOS, this episode is your roadmap. Let’s get into it.

    S3 E11: Alaina’s PCOS Story | How She Regulated Her Cycle, Healed Cysts & Got Pregnant Naturally (Part 1)

    This week we’re kicking off a two-part series on PCOS, and it’s personal. This is part one where Alaina shares her journey of living with PCOS—from the first confusing signs as a teenager, to being given a bad bandaid solution by doctors, to finally finding her own path forward. If you’ve ever been told to “just go on the pill” or felt like your concerns weren’t taken seriously, this story will feel all too familiar. Alaina opens up about how she learned to manage her PCOS, make sense of her symptoms, and ultimately support her body in a way that led to getting pregnant naturally—something she was once told might not be possible!! This conversation is close to our hearts because PCOS is so often misunderstood, and the women who live with it are often left without answers. Sharing this story is about showing that you can take control of your health and find your way back to hope. TOPICS WE COVER: ➡ Alaina’s first experiences with irregular cycles and symptoms ➡ The frustration of being offered band-aid solutions (hello, birth control) ➡ Why PCOS is more than just a reproductive condition ➡ The emotional impact of feeling unheard in the medical system ➡ How Alaina shifted from frustration to self-advocacy ➡ The steps she took to better understand and manage her PCOS ➡ Getting pregnant naturally after being told it might not happen RESOURCES ➡ The Period Repair Manual by Lara Briden ➡ 8 Steps to Reverse Your PCOS by Dr. Fiona McCulloch ➡ Cycle tracking for self-awareness and advocacy ➡ Power of Periodization (take our FREE masterclass to learn tips that we teach in our program!!)
