Episode 52: What's Next? Fertology!
They say all good things must end, and it's the end of Embrace You First! It is NOT however the end of our podcast, we're just rebranding and changing the focus a little bit.
EYF was designed to help us all be the best we can be, and put the focus on US, during the difficult times of the first wave of the pandemic.
Now that better times are here, we're changing our focus back to helping you GET pregnant and STAY pregnant. We'll share personal stories along the way, as well as providing invaluable advice on all things fertility.
Email or DM Dr. Tanya Wylde and I on social media. We would love to hear what your goals are right now as you embrace the seasons of your life from trying to get pregnant or stay pregnant, or postpartum through to menopause.

Episode 51: From Dreams to Reality, Pt.2 Life lessons from a Guinness Record holder (ft. Michelle Kakade)
In part 2 of our chat, we dig deep to see what keeps Michelle motivated when she's injured, on a very long run; what her passions are, and what she did during the lockdown.
Have you ever had a goal but not sure where to start or wonder if you’d ever accomplish it? Or have you ever had fear of failing stop you from pursuing your goal.
Well, we’re going to take you for a ride so that you can take action even when you’re not sure if you can do it.
That’s what Michelle Kakade did as she shares how she transformed her identity from being tied to others (by being a daughter, wife, and then mother) to being the Guiness world record holder for the fastest time to run the Indian Golden Quadrilateral, 5968.4 km ( 2709 miles). If you do the math, that’s 142 marathons within 194 days. The funniest part is that she doesn’t consider herself a runner. Crazy right?
Did she want to quit at points? You betcha… but she didn’t. She is an everyday Wonder Woman who chose not to stop while being fueled with determination. In spite of suffering along the way, Michelle is a person who doesn’t give up easily and has the capacity to know her limitations especially when it came to listening to her body (and specifically her menstruation but more about that in the episode).

Episode 48: Change Your body, Change Your Life (ft. Paul Walker)
Is there room to love ourselves right now and still want to change our bodies? Dr. Tanya and I say yes. Here’s a fact, I’m 5 foot nothing and don’t exactly have a model like figure, like my counterpart Tanya. I feel pretty good about myself. I know what to wear to accentuate my features. That said, I can stand to tighten up around the middle and am currently working on it. Instead of believing that "I want to change my body because I’m not good enough as I am" or "I will love myself better when I look a particular way?"
Paul Walker was bullied when he was young, partially due to his struggles with weight. Now he runs a successful fitness facility for over 30 years that caters to women, to help them get rid of the negative self talk and truly transform themselves into powerful, unstoppable forces!
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
- The heavier the resistance, the stronger the muscle
- For maximum results keep the muscle under tension until failure
- If you don't use it, you lose it
- As you get stronger, you must take on more challenging forms of resistance
- Time, patience and consistent resistance = progress.
Paul’s Bio:
Paul Walker is the owner and founder of Integrity Fitness, a nine time award-winning world-class training facility for women. He has graced the fitness industry for over three decades and is a well-known and respected fitness professional in all of Ontario. He has been featured on CP24, City TV, Rogers TV and, various other shows and podcasts. Every year, Paul leads his team to inspire, and motivate over two thousand women achieve fabulous results.
“My goal is to teach all my clients something that will help them go beyond their fitness & health goals. I truly believe to my deepest core, that the 5% of the time we needed to invest into our health, dramatically influences the other 95%.”

EP 45 - Should I Take Meds Ever?
What happens if you have tried everything naturally from under the sun and your headache, back pain, urinary discomfort, depressive symptoms or anxiety or whatever that ails you persist? Do you stick it out, keep doing what you are doing and hope that your symptoms will magically go away? Or, do you make an appointment with your doctor and then head straight to the closest pharmacy and get medicated? And if you choose the latter, do you feel guilty or bad about yourself for surrendering to pharmaceutical drugs?
Let's talk and begin by saying that we don't need to be a martyr. We are human and we can bump up against unexpected challenges which sometimes require more help.
Even though Dr. Tanya and I are all about being as natural as possible, we recognize our humanity. Most of the time, we are able to stay healthy with our proactive lifestyle. That said, we are perfectly imperfect and run into challenges just like any other person. We know that drugs can lead to unwanted side effects. We also know that taking them correctly and understanding the right time, place and way to administer them can reduce the risks. If you are the person that can be au naturel for your whole life, sincere congrats to you. For the rest of us, there is a right time, place and situation for medications to ease certain issues. Sometimes, leaning into acute situations with pharmaceutical drugs may be the best option.
Did she try everything naturally to mitigate her pain and inflammatory reaction? Absolutely. Did she feel bad or wrong reaching out for meds? Absolutely not. Will she be taking these meds forever? No. She is on the mend because she used the meds. Thank goodness. She is also getting back to her normal healthy activities such as going for a bike ride with her four year old in the forest.

WHAT IS A HEALTHY MENSTRUAL CYCLE?
Should we include the menstrual cycles as a vital sign? We say, Kale yeah!
The four main vital signs doctors routinely monitor include body temperature, heart rate, respiration rate, and blood pressure. They indicate the state of a patient’s essential body functions. Your menstrual cycle gives you unparalleled understanding of the incredible connection between your menstrual cycle and your overall health.
Tracking periods can be super helpful for birth control or conception. But it’s way beyond that. Keeping track of your period can tell a story about much more than your reproductive health.
Who better to speak with than our dear friend Lisa Hendrickson-Jack, author and brilliant Fertility Awareness Educator and Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner who teaches women to chart their menstrual cycles for natural birth control, conception, and monitoring overall health.
It’s time to talk about our periods openly without shame - without hesitation because it’s our birth right.

Tracking periods can be super helpful for birth control or conception. But it’s way beyond that. Keeping track of your period can tell a story about much more than your reproductive health. It provides information about your hormonal, breast, bone, and emotional health too. It’s actually a cheap and easy way to take charge of your own health. It’s your biohack to see what’s going on with your body and seeing if you need to do anything about it. Chinese medicine has been analyzing women’s menstrual cycles for thousands of years.

Episode 42: How to improve your libido and sex life
We need to normalize how we think about sex. It's completely natural, yet we have so many communication issues and expectations around it.
Desire changes, and we need to have healthy conversations around it, especially self pleasure.
Intimacy doesn’t mean sex, sex doesn’t mean penetration. There are many ways to be intimate when the desire for sex is not strong, including self pleasure, where perhaps your partner helps or watches.

EP 39: Resting Heart Rate: Your Health & Fitness Indicator
Did you know - A normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute. Generally, a lower heart rate at rest implies more efficient heart function and better cardiovascular fitness. For example, a well-trained athlete might have a normal resting heart rate closer to 40 beats per minute. But in Chinese medicine we also see that it may not be good to have too low of a heart rate either.
In the west, we look at the rate and rhythm of the pulse as it reflects health. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, we go a step further and look beyond the quantitative analysis, and feel the quality of the pulse of patients and can palpate 22+ different pulses, ie. Slow, intermittent, fast, slippery, wiry, soft, ropy, thin, rolling choppy, sinking, etc., all a reflection of the state of the body!

EP 36: How Sleep & Intimacy Go Hand in Hand
If you've been caught up in a cycle of sleepless nights, there's a drug-free way to get back on track: Make love more often. In our Sleep your Way to success (episode 13) and Beauty Sleep (episode 10) episode we gave a ton of tips on how to improve both your sleep quality and quantity.
Today we are discussing how intimacy can not only improve your sleep but is also an excellent way to connect better to yourself and your partner (if you have one) both physically and psychologically.
Making love is an excellent way to transition yourself and turn your dial from the sympathetic nervous system (AKA GO MODE) to the parasympathetic nervous system (AS IN REST & DIGEST MODE) to get a deeper effective sleep.
No partner? No problem. Sex, or more specifically, orgasm, with or without a partner, produces hormones that play a role in helping you relax and fall asleep.

Episode 35: Revolutionizing Motherhood (ft. Kimberly Ann Johnson)
Whether you’ve had your kids or not, this is something all women (and their supportive men and family members) need to know about. Did you know that your health, vitality, and libido can be impacted long term if you don’t take the time to replenish and nourish yourself after childbirth? Sleep deprivation coupled with the constant demands placed on you may leave you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and out of control way beyond the immediate postpartum leaving you feeling out of sorts for years (and sometimes decades). That said, it doesn’t have to be this way. Kimberly Ann Johnson, author of the Fourth Trimester, birth doula and sexological bodyworker is back again to unpack it all for you.

Have you ever had a time when you didn’t get to say what you wanted to say or do what you wanted to do? Stored over time, this can be a form of retained trauma. Trauma, no matter how small or big, can impact your body, mind, and spirit. Tapping into your deepest, truest self, you can learn to read and speak your body’s language, and create a paradigm shift with practices you need to heal, awaken your power, and live your most embodied life.

Episode 33: Finding Happiness - Being With All Your Emotions
Anger is part of the human condition and one that deserves a lot of attention because we don’t like it, we repel away from it and it can be caustic and painful for ourselves and for others if we lash out in anger.
We love to intersect research with the wisdom of medicine that prevailed modern medicine by 1000’s of years. Medical and psychological Research shows that holding onto anger and resentment increases risk for anxiety, depression, insomnia, high blood pressure, ulcers, migraines, backaches, heart attack and even cancer!
