Summary
On today’s episode, I’m chatting with Paige Lindgren, a Certified Hormone Specialist and Pilates Instructor who is passionate about helping women feel their best and find balance, hormone health optimization, and healthy lifestyle choices. Paige also co-founded From Force to Flow, a cycle syncing platform that's full of hormone knowledge and tips for each phase of the menstrual cycle. Together we discuss the different phases of the menstrual cycle & optimization for each one, hormone imbalances and conditions (PCOS, Hashimotos, etc.) and how to test for them/manage symptoms, the impact that cortisol has on feeling safe in our bodies, why getting more protein is so important, long-term effects of blue light exposure, social media & screentime breaks, healthy sleep patterns, the difference between a healthy and dysfunctional thyroid, why over-exercising can cause more harm than good, managing environmental stress, natural vs. hormonal birth control options, exposure to elevated amounts of BPAs and microplastics, honoring cravings during menstruation, and so much more! I love how Paige presents these findings in a way that's both approachable and easy to understand, while creating a safe space for women with shared experiences to discuss their journeys.
