Make Room Show

This episode is NOT just for women! Guys, let's start learning how to support the females in our lives through this life-changing experience: menopause. Join us on the Make Room Show today as we dive into the topic of menopause and overall health with our guest, Laurie Lewis. For this health coach, menopause dealt a crushing blow -- brain fog, pain, memory loss, and the sudden gain of 50 pounds of stubborn hormonal fat. She tried everything she knew to feel better, and the methods that worked in the past made no difference.   After struggling for years she suddenly stumbled upon Intermittent Fasting which turned the course of her life. She started having an “eating window” that very same day, and in less than a week the menopausal fog lifted and she felt more like herself. Laurie restored her health and comfortable weight, and at 60-years old has changed thousands of lives around the world through her group programs, 1:1 personal coaching sessions, and is recognized as the go-to Intermittent Fasting expert. Talking points: 1. Laurie's personal journey and how she discovered the importance of fueling her body well, eventually becoming a health coach. 2. "Not-foods" 3. Laurie's experience of entering perimenopause and how it affected her physical and mental well-being. 4. Her discovery of the power of intermittent fasting in balancing hormones, reducing inflammation, and promoting mental clarity. In this conversation, Laurie emphasizes that intermittent fasting is not a one-size-fits-all approach. She encourages a gentle and consistent approach tailored to individual needs, lifestyle, and goals. She also addresses the misconception that menopause is an inevitable decline and highlights the possibility of feeling healthier and more vibrant during this phase of life. Join us as we delve into the physical and emotional benefits of intermittent fasting during perimenopause and explore how this practice can empower women to take control of their health. Whether you're already familiar with intermittent fasting or curious about its potential, this episode offers valuable insights and practical tips to make room for clarity and health in your life. -- Where to find Laurie: Website Instagram -- About your host, Jennifer Ford Berry: Jennifer is the host of the Making Room podcast (formerly The 29 Minute Mom podcast) and the founder of the Created Order Neighborhood, an online community of women who want to live a life of order and purpose.

On Today's episode of the Make Room Show, we dive into all things Motherhood. First off, have you ever noticed how society rarely uses the term "working dad"? It's as if fatherhood doesn't require the same level of work and commitment as motherhood. Well, let me tell you, being a mother is hard work, and we deserve the recognition for it. We're constantly told that we need to "have it all," but what does that even mean? Society's expectations of what we should achieve as mothers can be overwhelming and unrealistic. It's time to redefine what "having it all" means to us individually and strive for a more authentic approach to motherhood. As mothers, we need to be authentic and vulnerable with our struggles, so we can build a supportive community. It's okay to admit that we don't have all the answers and that we need help sometimes. We also talk about how we can stop being so bothered by the little things that don't matter. Most of our expectations are just that - expectations. We need to let go of the pressure we put on ourselves to be perfect and embrace imperfection as a part of the journey. We also need to stop judging other moms because we are all in this shared human experience. The label of "mother" means so many things, and we each have our own unique way of navigating it. Let's celebrate our differences and support each other instead of tearing each other down. Speaking of labels, how about embracing our "becoming" as a mother? It's a constant journey of growth and self-discovery. We should be proud of how far we've come and excited about where we're headed. For empty nesters, it's a new phase of life that can be both exciting and scary. It's important to take time to reflect on our accomplishments as a mother and focus on self-care rituals that will actually help us. Finally, let's not forget that how we were mothered can affect how we mother our own children. It's important to recognize any patterns or habits that we may have inherited and actively work to break the cycle if necessary. So there you have it, moms. A lot to think about and reflect on. Let's continue to support each other on this journey and remember to take care of ourselves along the way. -- Jenna Worthen is the author of Mom Who Works and founder and chief curatorfor an online, global organization of the same name. Exhausted by the label “working mom” and all the things that come with it—unnecessary bias, mom guilt, lesser pay and career mobility, and more—Worthen sought a new identifier for women who work. Thus, the phrase “mom who works” was born.The Mom Who Works community serves more than 2,500 women who want to redefine what it means to be a working mom in a world without working dads. Focused on the intersection of motherhood and careerhood, Mom Who Works hosts in-person events, digital retreats, and weekly engagement and discussion with more than 2,500 women through its platforms on Instagram, Facebook and email.Worthen is a mom who works as CEO and founder of James Martin Company, helping candidates and nonprofits create and implement intentional development strategies. She has served as chief storyteller for an Oklahoma City–based nonprofit and was a cofounder of the 111Project, a nonprofit that serves children and families in foster care.Worthen earned her master’s in political management from the George Washington University and her undergraduate degree in politics and law from Southern Nazarene University. She lives in Oklahoma with her husband and three children—Bobby, Jake, and June—and a dog named Nicey, who rescued them.
