    52. The German New Medicine perspective on PCOS & other women’s health concerns with Abigail Puccioni

    Both conventional and alternative medicine view symptoms as bad, a sign of imbalances and needing to be fixed. But what if your symptoms were actually GOOD and a sign that you’re healing?  What if the root cause of your symptoms has nothing to do with you not eating perfectly, but rather, a highly intelligent adaptive response to ensure your survival? Our guest Abigail Puccioni, a German New Medicine Educator offers us a transformative perspective on health and disease that takes the fear, overwhelm and pressure out of healing. She gives us a beginner crash course on what German New Medicine is, and takes us through the five foundational principles of GNM, which you can use as a lens to understand the real biological root of your chronic symptoms and how to approach healing differently. Today we discuss: The basics of German New Medicine and how it flips the script on conventional and alternative medicine I share a personal story on how GNM helped me solve the mystery of “random” pelvic and bladder pain I was experiencing for months The emotional and biological root cause of women’s reproductive health concerns like PCOS, yeast infections and period pain Questions to ask yourself to gain clarity on the biological root cause of your symptoms Connect with Abigail: @ajpuccioni  abigailpuccioni.com Freedom from Fear podcast Follow womb.ology and join the bi-monthly email newsletter for more womb wisdom and cyclical living education.

    49. Hack the System: HR-Approved Cycle-Aligned Work Schedule with Olivia Bolt, Somatic Healer & Mindset Coach

    Did you know the 9-5 work schedule is based on the natural 24-hour cycle of male hormones? Women’s hormones are not the same everyday, so what’s a menstruating woman to do with a 40-hour a week job schedule that expects us to behave like men? Breaking news! You can advocate for your cycle and politely demand that your hormones be respected. In this progressive talk, Olivia Bolt explains how she got her corporate job to allow flexibility in her work schedule in order to prioritize her menstrual health. Embark on this journey with us as we challenge traditional beliefs in pursuit of holistic well-being.  Plus, Olivia shares the story of how she had no idea a tampon was lost inside her for 6 months, and the profound healing journey that came afterwards. ​​Olivia Bolt is a mix between a Somatic Healer and a Mindset Coach with many years of experience in the field coaching others and a lifetime of experience working on herself. Her methodology is called Empowered Patterns, and it focuses on the correlation between our gut-brain axis, our beliefs, and why it’s so hard to do the things we say we want to do for ourselves. She has recently gone through a traumatic spiritual awakening and is here to share her story in an effort to help others. Today we discuss: Olivia’s health challenges and her incredible "lost tampon story"! Her transformation from struggle to acceptance How to advocate for your well-being at work The importance of self-compassion and somatic awareness in the healing process Empowering yourself to challenge the status quo  Why self-advocacy is necessary to prevent burnout  Connect with Olivia: Instagram  Follow womb.ology and join the bi-monthly email newsletter for more womb wisdom and cyclical living education.
