We discuss immune function, mindfulness and the need for connection and soul care. If you are a parent, this one is definitely for you. As we work and seek to take care of our families, so often self care and soul care fall to the side. These simple, practical tips will encourage and empower you.

November 27, 2020 - Episode #42 - LIVE Health Coaching - How Virginia is finding Mind, Body and Soul balance
Today is a podcast bonus with LIVE coaching! As a Dietitian turned FMHC who empowers women on their health transformation body, mind and soul. I’m finding that there are so many misconceptions about health coaching. Many people think that that it is a rigid environment where you are giving very strict guidelines about your diet. And you are made to feel guilty and ashamed for how you have treated your health in the past. Functional Medicine health coaching is different. It is about empowerment, encouragement, recognizing your strengths and helping you identify obstacles that are holding you back! This LIVE Coaching episode with Virginia is real, raw and honest. We identify some strengths and help her remember some "wins" that are benefiting her health. Then we strategize specific ways for her to find balance in her Body, Mind and Soul. DON'T MISS THE HOLIDAY SPECIAL that I mentioned in this podcast.

July 14, 2020 - Episode #24 - How Fear, Anger, Stress and Bitterness affect our Health
It truly feels like we're in a horror movie that just won't stop. There is nothing that could have prepared us for such a extreme global pandemic resulting in a worldwide quarantine, and then the dramatic unrest that is seeding in America, as we battle over the topic of racism. But as we struggle with fear and certainty, stress, anger, hatred, bitterness, the question remains... Are these feelings and emotions affecting our health? You better believe it. And the research supports this. A growing body of research shows that your state of mind may have a significant impact on your health and wellbeing. A recent study from Concordia University has found that constant bitterness can make a person ill. Holding on to bitterness, can affect metabolism, immune response and organ function, and may even lead to disease. Scientists for some time had been looking at what shapes health and what shapes illness. They've identified that personality traits are linked to health or lack thereof. Anger, and hostility being linked to physical illness. And optimism being linked to longevity! It's interesting and really makes the case for mind and body connection. Listen in as we connect the dots on how stress, anger, fear and hatred affect not only our mental and emotional wellbeing but most critically our physical health! Are our feelings and emotions weakening our immune system at the most crucial time?? This is our hot topic today on Healthy Harmony. If you know you need additional support with regard to your total health...body, mind and soul. Consider booking a 1 hour virtual coaching call. Your Health Coaching session will be tailored exactly to your needs and struggles. Book at https://www.inspirehealthyharmony.com/coaching.html#/ Read Full Transcript |

May 12, 2020 - Episode #18 - An Athlete’s Story: Turning Tragedy into Hope with Riley Duzenack
Today’s podcast is truly a story of tragedy, brokenness, and challenges emerging into a journey of healing and grace. Riley Duzenack was a D1 college athlete with a promising athletic career ahead of her when a health disaster struck. Numerous surgeries, complications and infections ended her promising athletic career. A story that had a vastly different ending than what was planned or anticipated. Her story will inspire you and remind you to embrace hope for the future even when all seems bleak. If you have a child navigating the complexities of mental health within sports, you’re personally an athlete overcoming an injury that has put you on the sidelines, or you simply are looking for encouragement, you’ll love this podcast! On today’s episode of Healthy Harmony, we discuss how a D1 female-athlete navigates mental health, performance-driven pressures, autoimmune disease, healing from injury, and how she practiced resting and restoring her body after several medical procedures. We discuss the process of becoming your own best health advocate in a healthcare system that is looking for the quick fix. We talk about how important it is to take care of your own body, by looking to create healthy lifestyle changes instead of following a check-list. You are going to want to listen to this podcast to be inspired in the empowerment of a young athlete through an unprecedented health situation. Navigating an illness or injury is never easy. Riley decided she needed the support of a Health Coach, I was honored to work with her. Here is what Riley said about her experience with me as her coach..."Jennifer not only has so much knowledge when it comes to health & nutrition, but she truly empowers you to be your own best health advocate. She listens, empathizes, and helps you create a plan that truly leads you to success, NOT burn out. Immediately upon talking to her you feel comfortable sharing your struggles, frustrations, and needs for overcoming barriers in your health journey. She helped me overcome digestion issues, brain fog, and chronic fatigue through small changes in my nutrition and lifestyle. I would recommend Jennifer for ANYONE seeking to improve their life through a holistic approach to health!"
