Summary

Jordan Lee Dooley became a successful entrepreneur, bestselling author, and top podcaster at a very young age. Right when it felt like all of her lifelong dreams were coming true, Jordan suffered not only one, but two consecutive miscarriages. These traumatic events became the catalyst that opened Jordan's eyes to the way that her own health had suffered as a result of operating at an unsustainable pace. Since then, she has made it one of her missions to help women prioritize their health & well-being while pursuing their dreams. Jordan has been working to restore her mind, body, & spirit holistically while healing her metabolism, and she shares about her journey on today's episode.

And I have to remember God designed our bodies to work well.

0:03.0

And so we can do some things to support their ability to work well,

0:06.0

but also like we can't avoid living our lives and living in the world

and being present because that's going to create so much more stress and start pushing us to that other extreme of like it's all on me.

Welcome back to the freely rated podcast. I am your host Corey and my co-host Fallon and I have a really special guest on for this

0:24.9

episode today and we're really excited for you guys to tune in. We have actually

0:29.2

been sitting on this episode topic for a while now and really we're waiting for the right fit to come

0:34.1

along as far as someone to sit down and discuss this with and Jordan ended up

0:39.4

being that perfect person for this episode so we're really stoked about it. You might know

0:43.7

Jordan Lee Dooley from her podcast, She. Jordan wears many hats as she likes to

0:48.9

say she's an entrepreneur, she is a best-selling author, She is a top podcaster and much of her story is actually how she reached all of the success at a very very young age but then things kind of crashed after she experienced not one but two consecutive

But the deeper reason we wanted someone really special to come on for this episode is to be able to discuss the topic of pregnancy loss with grace and with wisdom and with hope because Jordan explains that there is a really delicate balance when it comes to being a woman who has gone through a miscarriage herself because on one spectrum there might be a temptation to fall into the belief that your body is broken or that maybe it just wasn't in quote God's plan unquote for you to have that baby and we hear a lot of these

1:58.2

cliches in the church just you know I guess that's not God's plan or God needed that baby in heaven and ultimately a lot of these

2:05.0

cliches that we hear are simply not helpful and they're not rooted in truth so maybe that's one side of the spectrum and
