EMFs & your health, what you need to know. With Jo Lia from No Tox Rox. PART 2
This is Part 2 of my interview all about EMFs with Joanne Lia from No Tox Rox. I last spoke with Jo back on episode #11 - all about mold, so make sure you go back and check that out if you haven’t yet. This time, Jo and I spoke about EMFs. We covered the following in this jam-packed two-part interview: Why should we be concerned about EMFs in the first place? Is living close to electrical towers / mobile phone towers a problem? Are EMFs worse if you live in an apartment building? What does the research and science say about EMF exposure and our health and safety? Earbuds and bluetooth headphones - should we be concerned? Infertility and EMFs - is there a connection? How can we mitigate the dangers of EMFs and protect ourselves, (including a candid conversation about EMF pendants and other “shielding” devices)? Jo is a certified building biologist and certified electromagnetic radiation (EMR) consultant. She specialises in creating healthy indoor environments. As well as conducting healthy home/office audits, Jo also conducts pre-lease/pre-purchase audits for homebuyers.

31: Why is no one talking about women & (very protective) testosterone? PART 1
In this episode we discuss testosterone - an absolutely critical hormone for women that starts to decline in our 20’s. Testosterone plays a much bigger role in a woman’s body than simply supporting libido. It protects us from breast cancer, alzheimer's, supports our mood, supports our motivation, boosts our metabolism, and SO much more. I break it all down for you in this episode, so settle in and enjoy. Please also share this episode with a friend if you think they’d benefit from listening, as this is little known but hugely important information for women everywhere.

30: What does "mindset work" really mean in a healing journey?
This was a spur of the moment episode recorded whilst away on vacation because I felt compelled to explain what “mindset work” really means. Don’t skip over this episode because your mindset may be the very thing holding you back in your healing. It doesn’t always feel fantastic to admit when we have work to do here, but we ALL have work to do when it comes to our mindset. That’s what makes us human, and that’s part of our ever-evolving journey.

29: Everything you need to know about migraines & headaches - PART 2
This is part 2 all about headaches and migraines. If you haven't yet listened to Part 1 please go back and do that first as that’s very valuable information that connects into this episode. Enjoy! I work with many women who struggle with headaches and migraines. They are debilitating. Not only are they debilitating but often these women have to take some pretty heavy duty meds to combat the pain. And they have no choice - especially when they have kids and jobs they have to attend to. The good news is, often we can significantly reduce the amount and frequency of this pain in these women. It’s all about getting to the root cause of what’s driving the pain for them, and that’s what this episode is all about. I talk about all the various root causes for migraines and headaches and what some of the strategies we use with our ladies are to combat this horrible affliction. I hope the nuggets of information in this episode can help you or one of your loved ones overcome their pain.
