What is your external appearance saying about your internal health?

Vibrancy is a sign of health.

One of the number one things you will start to notice as your internal environment starts to function better and you are fully nourishing yourself is your appearance starts to follow suit, you look healthier, more vibrant, younger and ALIVE.

It all comes down to energy.

Energy from minerals, carbs, protein and fat. We do not discriminate.

You can not expect your body to have enough energy to make you look good, let alone feel good if you are expecting to run off air.

Plump lips, nice skin tone, bright eyes, long full hair… These are nice-to-haves.

If your body is fighting to keep itself alive and its internal environment is struggling you bet it couldn’t give 2 shits about what you look like.

If you were properly nourishing yourself you wouldn’t be running to get the next botox, hair extensions, or fillers. Your body would provide.

This is why overtime, a dieting woman depriving herself of necessary nutrients looks like a dieting, deprived woman.

You are simply catering to your symptoms with restorative diets rather than fixing them.

A body that can ovulate and ovulate well.

A body that can eliminate excess estrogen without a hitch.

A body that can absorb and assimilate nutrients.

A body that can utilize glucose well.

A body that is less reactive and can handle stressors…

Are all signs of good health and your appearance will follow suit.

What is one thing you noticed has become more vibrant since you started nourishing yourself and not depriving yourself?

Menopause is a reflection of how you have lived your life

Ladies in your 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, listen up!

I know you’re thinking “But Laura, I don’t care about menopause i’m so young”

Girlfriend, it’s time to start nourishing and understanding your body now or you will pay later.

One of the biggest questions I get is does the information I teach apply to menopausal women.

ABSOLUTLY.

The fact that we have been bombarded with messaging telling us that during peri and post menopause we just need to eat less, we need to switch to some super restrictive diet because we will will gain 100 pounds, we need to use all these creams and beauty treatments and take hormone replacement therapy for all those dreadful symptoms.

We have somehow become these weak, fat, ugly, dried up wrinkled raisins with zero sex appeal. Our vaginas are like the Sahara desert, our bones are just going to break merely getting out of bed, our breasts hang down to our knees, and we are riddled with hot flashes, arthritis and mood swings to top it off.

LIFE IS OVER. THROW IN THE TOWEL NOW. I’M OFFICIALLY DECEASED.

This is complete and total BS. And it does not need to be that way!

How have we turned a truly natural process in a woman’s life into a money making industry?

A natural process that is still a mystery to most scientists and researchers because women and women’s cycles are “complicated.”

Billions of dollars are spent on adverting estrogen as a cure all. But luckily we are now becoming aware of estrogen being the culprit to many cancers and disease in the body.

Oh wait silly me…

These are the same people that have created the stressful, estrogenic lives we lead causing us to have these dreadful menopausal symptoms in the first place.

Due to this we need to have more awareness than ever before. We need to understand what true nourishment is, we need to make adjustments in our lives to combat all the lies we have been told about how to lives our lives.

Just know. Nature did not make a mistake.

Menopause is a normal, natural physiological adjustment. Stop letting influencers, ads or doctors make you think otherwise.

A healthy transition requires two things: Nourishing your body with proper nutrition + limiting stress.

10 signs you are in burnout

You walk into a doctors office with a list a mile long of symptoms, exhausted, and not feeling like yourself for what seems like forever. You are thinking thyroid, adrenals? Worse, cancer?

They tell you your blood labs look great it’s all in your head you are just stressed.

They then proceed with the “have you tried?”

Meditation?
Journaling?
X pill or x supplement?
Yoga?

Have you tried, go F yourself? 😂 As if you are not already stressed enough.

I mean they are not wrong. You are stressed. You are burnt out.

You are also not wrong. There is something deeper going on, you sensed it and your thyroid and adrenals are likely at play. They are always talking to each other. Your body is ALWAYS talking but unfortunately, you didn’t listen to those initial whispers.

There is a lot more than meditation that will get you out of burnout. One of the biggest and often overlooked is nourishment through the food you consume. You need to have the energy to deal with stressors, change your view and have mental clarity around them and become more resilient because lets be real stress will be unavoidable.

Stress registers in the body as a demand for energy and if not given the energy through proper fuel that it needs our adrenals burn out, our thyroid becomes compromised, our digestion sucks, our hormones become wack, we struggle with blood sugar issues and the cascade of symptoms continue.

Have you tried?

Nourishing yourself with a traditional pro-metabolic diet?

Focusing on minerals?

Saying no to people and not putting yourself in bad situations?

Making a career change or move?

Living in alignment with your female physiology?

Addressing what got u here in the first place?

Start here. If you don’t you will just continue repeating the cycle and ending up disappointed when nothing works.

Are you sick of doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results?

Are you managing stress well or do you need to start making big changes for your health?

Your body is always trying to adapt to stressors to keep you alive until it can’t.

Maybe one day people will stop having to ask you “have you tried?”
