Clean Living In Real Life with Michelle and Leona Michelle and Leona

Living everyday life with Hashimoto’s is hard especially being a stay at home mom. In this episode, you’ll learn about all the supplements I take in my everyday life living with Hashimoto’s and….. it all ends with a gallbladder attack - something I didn’t want to film but had to show you guys.

I’m all about real life here, so I am going to share the good and the bad, especially everyday life. With Hashimoto’s and gallstones, it’s not easy but it gets better. So blessed through all of it to have my beautiful miracle baby and be able to do baby led weaning (hear what we eat in a day for Hashimoto's that is SO NOT mainstream but that's really working for us - for the most part.)

My honest opinion in this Sustain Natural Review. Sustain Natural gets a lot of hype for their organic tampons and pads but are they the best natural pads out there? I don't know about that... Keep watching to get my honest Clean Beauty Product Review.   

Hey ya’ll. This week did NOT go as planned. I got my period again (4th one while breastfeeding) so my plans to edit and upload got derailed. Luckily I had this Sustain Natural Review pre-recorded so I am uploading this Clean Beauty Product Review instead. (I will be doing more of these so subscribe if you want more Clean Beauty Reviews). 

I have to be honest here: I am NOT impressed. A lot of things have changed over at Sustain Natural since I first started buying from them (spoiler alert: they no longer have their subscription for organic pads and tampons, bummer).  I bought them because I wanted good quality organic pads and tampons, but I’m not so sure they are as natural as they say they are. Tune in to hear my thoughts.

My Hashimoto’s Story: my unexplained Hashimoto's thyroid disease symptoms revealed. Part 1 of my Infertility Journey with Hashimoto’s Series. 

I don’t know guys. This part of my Hashimoto’s story is hard to share. I was at my lowest, my breaking point, ready to do anything to lose weight and battle infertility. But I was hopeless: my Hashimoto’s thyroiditis symptoms had flared so much that I had gained 80 pounds and thought I would always be infertile. My journey to infertility was rough and this was only the beginning.  

Tune in to hear my vulnerable Hashimoto’s story of my undiagnosed and unexplained symptoms, my inaccurate tests, and so much more. And what I would do now if I was in the same part of my infertility journey as I was then (I would do so much differently).  Thank you for watching and if you need anything, a hand to hold or a shoulder to cry on DM me on Instagram: @michelleandleona  I answer all of my messages and am happy to chat with anyone on their infertility journey and share my Hashimoto’s story with you.  

You can do this. I love you.

Yes, I got my period while breastfeeding! 

Honestly, I was hoping I could skip getting my postpartum period while breastfeeding until my next pregnancy, but my body had other plans.   Watch my video to hear my postpartum period while breastfeeding story, on my worst day of my period. Getting my first period while breastfeeding was a shock to me, and I am sharing my raw and real life reactions to being a first time mom with her first postpartum period with you guys.  Want to come along for the ride?

Yes, another mom podcast! But honestly, I have been seeing the need for realness: moms podcasting real life behind the scenes. So here I am sharing my journey of being a real mom in this crazy world we live in. 
Hey ya'll. Welcome to my podcast. The start of this Podcast has been a long time coming, but it is time for a real mom life Podcast. I don’t know about you, but I can’t relate to moms who have it all together all the time and get ready for the day looking like they have been in the makeup chair for hours. So it’s time for a mom podcast that empowers stay at home moms (ugh, not a huge fan of that term) to pursue their dreams and be a badass mom while they do it. 
Oh, and also sharing tips on living with hypothyroidism and getting pregnant when you’re infertile with thyroid disease (like me) or other ones like PCOS and sharing my fertility story and journey with you. And because we are health conscious here (almost because we have to be), I will be bringing you real-life vlog entertainment from a mom living with thyroid disease: Clean Beauty Makeup tutorials and challenges and Viral Food YouTube videos, but in a healthy way (so we can have fun and take care of ourselves). It’s a mom vlog but better because these are things you won’t find anywhere else (seriously go look, they don’t exist). Subscribe to get Real Mom podcasts every Friday and other real-life content from a mom living with hypothyroidism like Clean Beauty makeup tutorials and challenges, Healthy versions of your favorite Food Youtube videos, and tips on getting pregnant and getting healthy for good with Hashimoto’s, the autoimmune version of hypothyroidism (thyroid disease). With this podcast, I hope to help just one person on their journey. This is just the beginning, so if you want to see more of my journey trying to be the best mom I can be while living with thyroid disease, subscribe to my channel. We'll chat all things baby, pregnancy, clean beauty, healthy living, meditation, parenting, and more. Everything I know and am learning about how to be the best version of myself and show up as the best mom I can, living in this crazy world. Ready to take the ride with me? Join the community.
