Are you doing all of the things I talk about and STILL not feeling like yourself or feel like you SHOULD feel better?
This episode is going to be very interesting for you so listen up…If you have been following the show for a while you likely know that there are 3 phases of healing to thrive in perimenopause…the first being inflammation reduction, the second being healing and repair and the third being hormone optimization.
Hormone optimization is all about knowing and supporting your hormones and your natural feminine hormone rhythm. A KEY piece of this phase is really understanding the hormone disruptors and toxicity of your products.
We have talked on this podcast about non toxic cleaning products (Ep 52) we have talked about how to have a less toxic home (Ep 111) so make sure you check out those episodes if you haven’t already. But we haven’t talked about a major area of toxic products that we all use at least a few times a week if not daily, and that is hair care.
Tune In To This Episode To Learn:
- How Toxins In Hair Products Can Directly Impact Your Hormones.
- Signs That You May Be Dealing With Exposure To These Toxins
- How To Start Cleaning Up Your Products

She works to fill a need to improve, expand & elevate the commission employee based business model in our industry, providing career minded stylists opportunities to grow far past the “max” of this model without the “toxic” salon culture. She values a holistic, low toxic environment for her salons, striving to ensure sustainability for stylists & the best haircare for guests, showing you can achieve luxury hair without the toxins!

Are you aware of any self sabotage cycles that you may have? Before I lost myself deep in the hormonal chaos of my own perimenopause, I used to have this cycle where I would mentally commit to myself on a Sunday night or at the beginning of a month or even New Year where I would make all of these plans to go all in on a fitness program and nutrition plan, AND work goals and life goals all surrounding the amazing human I wanted to be, I would set my alarm for 4:30 am and then go go go all day, ignoring the needs of my body to accomplish my goals, and without fail, by Thursday I would be so burnt out that I would land myself deep in a bag of chocolate chips in the pantry followed by a stomach ache and the ensuing shame that came with it - rinse and repeat.
My hustle addiction ran deep as a key player in my self sabotage cycle and although I have since learned that the monthly shifting of our hormones play a role, and understanding and honoring those can make a huge difference in our ability to be consistent toward out goals…after working with thousands of women on this, I know that it isn’t just our hormones, sometimes it is our subconscious programing, can you relate?
If so, THIS episode is for you!
