Ever feel like slowing down is a luxury you can’t afford while juggling kids, a business, or an endless to-do list? You’re not alone - I’ve been in that same boat. What if the solution isn’t doing more, but doing less more intentionally?

Here’s the truth: You can’t pour from an empty cup. When you’re always in go mode, your body pays the price, whether through exhaustion, mood swings, or missing out on precious moments.

In this episode, slow living expert Stephanie O’Dea shares her wisdom:

• The "tortoise mindset" - Make meaningful progress without burning out. Slow doesn’t mean lazy
• How to spot the hidden hustles in your life, from over-packed kid schedules to saying yes out of guilt
• A simple journaling trick - Align your day with how you truly want to feel, not just what you see on social media
• Real-life time-blocking - Start with just one routine. Stephanie swears by evening first

If you’re ready to trade chaos for calm and still crush your goals, hit play now.

It’s day 4, the final day of the Hormone Real Talk Bootcamp, and I’m bringing you a little recap of the bootcamp alongside a deep dive into how hormone imbalances can lead to long-term chronic diseases – and how we can prevent that from happening.

We covered several key hormone imbalances and their links to some very common chronic diseases. My goal was to stress the importance of addressing underlying causes rather than just masking symptoms for long-term health.

Tune in for the key topics discussed and practical steps you can take to support your long-term hormone health and prevent future issues.

In this episode:

• How my experience as an RN caused me to advocate for addressing root causes instead of covering up symptoms with medication
• Chronic symptoms caused by hormone imbalance that might turn into chronic disease later in life
• What you can do about chronic symptoms you’re experiencing now

Doors are opening today to Nourish Your Hormones Coaching - your step by step blueprint to make and detox hormones well WITH coaching support to help you stay clear and encouraged so you can finally see results.

It’s day 3 of the Hormone Real Talk Bootcamp - if you've ever found yourself feeling more anxious, angry, sad, or all of the above before your period, then you need to tune in to hear WHY PMS is affecting you and what you can do to have stable moods all month long.

In this episode I share some of the most causes of PMS symptoms – like estrogen dominance – as well as less common conditions such as changes in the GABA response in the body due to progesterone.

Rather than just masking symptoms, my holistic approach focuses on addressing the underlying imbalances through nourishment and lifestyle choices and that’s what we talk about in the second half of this episode.

Tomorrow's episode will provide more strategies for supporting metabolism, gut health, and reducing inflammation – which are key to balancing hormones long-term – so don’t forget to come back tomorrow for the final day of the Hormone Real Talk Bootcamp!

In this episode:

• What PMS and PMDD are + what's normal and what’s NOT
• Hormone imbalances that cause PMS and how to fix them
• A holistic approach to managing PMS and balancing hormones

Welcome back to Day 2 of the Hormone Real Talk Bootcamp!

If you've ever wondered why your energy is up and down and if your stress is REALLY affecting you negatively...this one is for you!

In this episode, I’m sharing the link between low energy and hormone imbalances: stress. Chronic stress puts the body in "survival mode" where it prioritizes stress hormones over sex hormones, leading to issues like low progesterone. Blood sugar imbalance can also trigger cortisol spikes and leave us feeling drained.

The good news is nourishment can help reset this cycle. Tune in and find out how!

Still not signed up for the pop up bootcamp group? Don't miss it - You’ll get to work through the action steps + takeaways from these episodes with Leisha personally AND we have giveaways only happening there!

In this episode:

• What is normal vs not in terms of ENERGY
• What good energy actually looks like
• What happens in your body when you’re under constant stress (it's not as harmless as you think)
• Balancing hormones naturally through nourishment and stress management can be doable even with a busy life

Welcome to Day 1 of the Hormone Real Talk Bootcamp. This episode is an overview of how hormones work throughout your menstrual cycle - TBH you should have learned this a LONG time ago, in middle school or at least at your first OBGYN appointment.

I’m going deep into common symptoms seen at different cycle phases, like increased libido and cervical fluid around ovulation, or how symptoms like PMS, cramps, and mood changes can indicate hormone imbalance – and how we can handle that naturally, aka without birth control. If you're not a newbie to this you could still learn something so stick around for a crash course refresher.

Tomorrow's episode will be about how stress affects sex hormones and ways to reduce stress for long-term hormone balance - even if you don't FEEL stressed you're not going to want to miss that one because it's KEY when balancing hormones!

Not in our bootcamp community group yet? Sign up here to get each episode delivered to you bright and early + action steps and personalized accountability with Leisha for the next 4 days + access to a live Zoom coaching call on Friday to get all your juicy hormone questions answered.

In this episode:

• How hormones work throughout a woman's cycle
• Hormonal changes that occur during the menstrual cycle – and how they relate to fertility
• PMS symptoms you might experience in the second half of the menstrual cycle and WHY
• Why birth control won’t fix your hormone issues – and why you should look for a holistic long-term solution instead

Ever take ashwagandha to "fix" your stress, only to end up feeling just as exhausted (and maybe even worse hormonally)? Friend, I’ve been there too.

If you’re relying on adaptogens to “fix” fatigue, weight gain, or hormonal chaos but still feel wired-and-tired, here’s what I want you to know: masking stress won’t heal your hormones. The duct-tape approach might help temporarily, but without addressing the root cause, you’re setting yourself up for a crash.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:

• The #1 mistake women make with adaptogens, and when they can help vs. when they’re just a band-aid
• How cortisol hijacks your hormones even if your bloodwork looks normal
• 5 hidden root causes of stress overload (hint: blood sugar crashes and gut issues are bigger culprits than your to-do list)
• My favorite nervous system tricks to signal safety to your body

If you’re done duct-taping your stressed body together and ready to actually heal, let’s do this together—hit play now.
