    Full Body Pharmacy: Getting to the True Root of Healing with Monica Guirguis

    What if your symptoms aren’t the problem? In this fascinating conversation, Almira sits down with functional health practitioner and former pharmacist Monica Guirguis to explore what happens when we stop treating symptoms and start looking for the root cause. After years working inside the healthcare system and then navigating her own chronic health challenges, Monica realized that true healing requires a completely different approach. One that looks at the body as a connected system rather than a collection of separate parts. Together, Almira and Monica dive into functional medicine, hormones, insulin resistance, fascia, nervous system regulation, emotional health, movement, breath, spirituality, and why so many women feel exhausted, disconnected, inflamed, and like they no longer feel like themselves. This conversation is a powerful reminder that your body is not broken. It is constantly communicating with you. The question is: are you listening? In This Episode We Discuss: Functional vs. Conventional Care: Shifting from symptom management to root-cause, whole-body healing. Metabolic & Hormonal Health: How chronic stress, insulin resistance, and menopause impact women’s bodies. Fascia & Movement: The role of fascia in pain, inflammation, and healing through techniques like Low Pressure Fitness. Nervous System & Emotions: Navigating stored trauma, emotional release, and the importance of regulation versus activation. Reconnection: Practical strategies for women to listen to their bodies and break free from cycles of exhaustion. About Monica Guirguis Monica Guirguis is a Functional Health Practitioner, former pharmacist, and founder of Full Body Pharmacy. After witnessing firsthand the limitations of symptom-based healthcare—and navigating her own chronic health challenges—Monica dedicated herself to understanding the root causes of illness and healing. Today, she helps people uncover the connections between their physical symptoms, hormones, nervous system, emotions, movement patterns, and lifestyle so they can create lasting health from the inside out. Through her work, Monica empowers clients to move beyond symptom management and into true whole-body healing.

    Let’s Talk About the Vulva, Baby: The Pleasure Gap Women Were Never Taught About

    It’s 8:00 AM. Most people are reaching for coffee. Almira and Dr. Kaitlyn Goldsmith are talking about orgasms and the vulva. Together, Almira and Kaitlyn explore how patriarchy, culture, and outdated medical systems have shaped women’s relationships with their bodies – and what becomes possible when women reclaim pleasure, self-knowledge, agency, and the fullness of their womanhood. In this candid, educational, and surprisingly funny conversation, Almira sits down with Licensed Psychologist and women’s health expert Dr. Kaitlyn Goldsmith to unpack one of the biggest gaps in women’s wellbeing: the lack of education and open conversation around pleasure, desire, intimacy, and our own bodies. From sexual shame and painful sex to responsive desire, postpartum mental health, the invisible mental load, and the ways women have been conditioned to disconnect from their own pleasure, this episode shines a light on conversations women should have been having all along. Because pleasure isn’t frivolous. It’s health. And it’s the whole f*****g point. And every woman deserves access to it. In This Episode We Discuss: • Why women’s health remains one of the most under-discussed areas of medicine • The lack of education and conversation around pleasure, desire, and intimacy • Why many women never learn what brings them pleasure • The truth about orgasms and female anatomy • Understanding the vulva and why body literacy matters • Painful sex – why it’s common but not normal • The connection between intimacy, mindfulness, and the nervous system • Sexual shame and the impact of cultural conditioning • Postpartum depression, anxiety, and maternal mental health • The invisible mental load women carry • How unequal domestic labour impacts desire and intimacy • The difference between spontaneous desire and responsive desire • Why many women believe something is wrong with them when they’re actually completely normal • The role of self-pleasure in self-discovery and empowerment • Why scheduling intimacy may actually improve your relationship • Reclaiming pleasure as a vital part of wellbeing • How pleasure extends beyond sex and into everyday life About Dr. Kaitlyn Goldsmith Dr. Kaitlyn Goldsmith holds a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and is a Licensed Psychologist. She is currently an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of British Columbia (UBC) and a Clinical Instructor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at UBC. Dr. Goldsmith is passionate about women’s health and has a special interest in sexual health, peripartum, and postpartum mental health issues. She has published several scholarly articles and book chapters in the area of sexual health and well-being and has been featured in several well-known publications such as Glamour and Cosmopolitan magazines.

    Perimenopause Is the Wake-Up Call Women Didn’t Know They Needed

    What if perimenopause isn’t the problem… but the wake-up call? In this deeply honest and expansive conversation, Almira sits down once again with Andrea Jang of Peribloom to talk about the moment so many women quietly arrive at: The realization that they’ve spent years caring for everyone else while abandoning themselves. After Andrea’s mother suffered a traumatic concussion and brain bleed following a ski accident, Andrea found herself navigating the healthcare system, advocating fiercely for her mother’s care, and witnessing firsthand how deeply women are conditioned to minimize their pain, ignore their bodies, and put themselves last. Together, Almira and Andrea unpack: Why women often wait until their bodies force them to slow downThe hidden health crisis among high-achieving womenPerimenopause, nervous system overwhelm & body changesLearning to listen to your body before it starts screamingThe connection between mindfulness and physical healthWhy people pleasing becomes exhausting in midlifeBoundaries, energy leaks & emotional burnoutThe importance of recovery, rest & nervous system regulationHow women can redefine fulfillment, beauty & success in midlifeScarcity mindset vs abundance mindsetAI, technology & creating more ease in modern life This episode is a powerful reminder that health is no longer optional. Your body is speaking to you every single day. And perimenopause may be the exact moment that finally forces women to listen.

    The Billion-Dollar Battle for Your Attention

    Your attention is one of the most valuable commodities on Earth. And billion-dollar companies are fighting for it every single day. In this wildly insightful, hilarious, and unexpectedly deep conversation, Almira sits down with entrepreneur, speaker, film executive, and founder of Sukha, Steven Puri, to unpack the modern attention war — and what Hollywood, tech, neuroscience, and flow states can teach us about reclaiming our lives. Steven has worked as a studio executive and producer on films from Die Hard to Wolverine, raised over $21 million in venture capital, and built multiple startups. But after years inside high-performance environments, he realized something shocking: Most people aren’t exhausted because they’re lazy. They’re exhausted because the modern world is engineered to fracture their focus. Together, Almira and Steven explore: • Flow states and how they actually work • How to reclaim your attention, creativity, and life force energy • The neuroscience behind deep work • Ritual, sacred work, and feminine flow • Why most people feel like they’re “chasing their day” This episode is equal parts wisdom, laughter, nervous system healing, and practical tools for creating a more intentional life.

    Motherhood Was Never Meant to Erase You

    Motherhood changes you. But somewhere along the way, many women stop asking themselves one very important question: “What do I need?” In this deeply honest and refreshing conversation, Almira sits down with Aarti Bhagat, founder of Always Mama, to talk about creating a version of motherhood that includes you too. Not through more pressure. Not through perfection. Not through adding more to your plate. But through intentionality, joy, freedom, community, and learning how to build yourself back into your life again. Together, they unpack what it means to slow down, design a life that actually feels good, and stop waiting until retirement, burnout, or “someday” to finally choose yourself. From creating beautiful environments and meaningful rituals to scheduling yourself onto your own to-do list, this episode is a reminder that motherhood was never meant to erase who you are. It’s about becoming more of yourself. ⸻ In this episode, we discuss: • Finding yourself again after motherhood Aarti shares the identity shift that came after becoming a mother and how she realized she wanted to feel joyful, present, and connected to herself again. • Why small moments matter more than we think From hot coffee to slow mornings, walks with the dog, music in the car, and meaningful conversations – this episode explores how joy often lives in the simplest moments. • Building yourself into your day A powerful conversation around scheduling yourself onto your own to-do list and creating intentional moments that support your nervous system and wellbeing. • Curating and designing a life that feels good Almira and Aarti explore beauty, environment, motherhood, freedom, flow, and consciously creating a life that supports who you want to become. • Letting go of rigid wellness rules This episode challenges the pressure to optimize every part of your life and offers a softer, more sustainable approach to self-care and personal growth. • The importance of village and community From motherhood friendships to shared conversations and support systems, the episode explores why women were never meant to do motherhood alone. • Why joy is part of the healing A reminder that fulfillment doesn’t always come from productivity – sometimes it comes from dancing in the kitchen, laughing with friends, or simply giving yourself permission to enjoy your life. ⸻ About Aarti Bhagat: Aarti Bhagat is the founder of Always Mama – a platform created to support mothers through joy, identity, intentional living, and community. Through curated events, honest conversations, and spaces like the Always Mama Supper Club, Aarti is helping mothers reconnect with themselves and remember that they matter too.
