    #85: Menstrual Cycles, Birth Control, and Fertility Awareness with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack, BA, FAE

    Now available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts! In this episode of With All Due Respect, Josh and Gray continue the fertility series with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack, a certified fertility awareness educator, author, and host of the Fertility Friday Podcast. Lisa has been teaching women about menstrual cycles, fertility awareness, and reproductive health for over two decades — long before these conversations were mainstream. Lisa breaks down why the menstrual cycle is a vital sign, how cycle tracking provides insight into overall health, and why so many women are dismissed or over-medicated instead of being educated about their bodies. The conversation dives into fertility awareness methods, cycle charting, ovulation, cervical fluid, basal body temperature, and how understanding these signals can support both conception and birth control — without shutting down natural hormone function. They also tackle the realities of hormonal birth control, including how it suppresses ovulation, alters natural hormone production, and what women should know about long-term use, post-pill fertility, and informed consent. This episode is empowering, educational, and essential listening for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of women’s health, fertility, and hormonal balance. 🔗 Learn more about Lisa and her work: 👉 https://www.fertilityfriday.com/ 📲 Follow us on Instagram: @phnmfitness 🌐 Visit us online: www.PhnmFit.com 📝 Read our blog: www.PhnmLifestyle.com YouTube: https://youtu.be/iqkkFuw-ItA

    #84: Environmental Toxicity, Fertility, and Children's Health with Deidre Bloomquist

    Now available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts! In this episode, Josh and Gray continue the fertility series with Deidre Bloomquist, diving deep into the often-overlooked role of environmental toxicity in fertility, pregnancy, and children’s health. Deidre shares her personal story as a mother whose son developed severe eczema early in life—despite “doing everything right”—and how that experience reshaped her work and mission. Deidre is the founder of Always Growing Wellness, where she specializes in environmental toxicity, preconception preparation, and reversing infertility for both women and men. Her work bridges adult fertility care with pediatric health, helping families understand how toxin burden, mold exposure, heavy metals, and gut health can impact fertility outcomes, pregnancy, and childhood conditions like eczema and immune dysfunction. Throughout this conversation, Deidre breaks down how toxins are inherited in utero, why mold exposure is so common (and often missed), how gut health and detox pathways affect hormones and reproduction, and why resilience—not perfection—is the goal. This episode is both eye-opening and empowering for anyone thinking about starting a family or supporting long-term health from the very beginning.

    #83: Endometriosis, Fertility & Women’s Health with Cindy Dabrowska, RD, MAN

    Now available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts! In this episode, Josh and Gray sit down with Cindy Dabrowska, a registered dietitian with a master’s degree in applied human nutrition, endometriosis and fertility specialist, and founder of The Supportive Endo RD. Cindy is also an endowarrior herself, bringing both clinical expertise and lived experience to a condition that is often misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and dismissed. Cindy breaks down what endometriosis really is, why diagnosis can take years, and how inflammation, immune dysfunction, hormones, gut health, and environmental factors all play a role in symptoms and fertility outcomes. The conversation covers why conventional treatment often falls short and how medical nutrition therapy and functional medicine principles can be used to support improvements in pain, fertility, energy, digestion, and hormonally driven symptoms. Her passion comes from helping women who, like herself, have finally said enough is enough to debilitating, life-altering endometriosis symptoms. As both a registered dietitian and endowarrior, Cindy is a trusted ally and resource for women looking to take back control of their health and quality of life. If you or someone you love struggles with painful periods, unexplained GI issues, infertility, chronic fatigue, or has ever been told “this is normal” — this episode is a must-listen.  Follow Cindy: @endo.fertility.dietician  Website: ⁠endometriosisdietitian.ca⁠  Follow us on Instagram: @phnmfitness  Visit us online: ⁠www.PhnmFit.com⁠  Read our blog: ⁠www.PhnmLifestyle.com⁠ YouTube: ⁠https://youtu.be/FSAvnOTt_tU
