Despite the fact that we spend ⅓ of our life sleeping, sleep can sometimes feel elusive, mysterious and frustratingly out of our control.  If you understand the importance of sleep, but just can’t get yourself to sleep as well as you wish you could, understanding the 3 systems that affect sleep might help give you some ideas of ways you hadn’t thought of to optimize your sleep.CBT-I directory: https://cbti.directory/ Book: Quiet Your Mind and Get To Sleep: https://www.abct.org/books/quiet-your-mind-and-get-to-sleep-solutions-to-insomnia-for-those-with-depression-anxiety-or-chronic-pain/my website: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.comAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

Have you heard of “energy vampires?”  Like, how your coffee maker, printer and speakers use electricity that you have to pay for if they’re still plugged in, even when they’re off?  What if you got only a certain allotment of kilowatt hours for your house for the day?  You could do way more of what you want with the limited energy you’re given if you unplug all of that other stuff.  There’s something that almost everyone does that is pretty much the same.  We all have a certain amount of mental and emotional energy available to us in a day.  If you stop wasting it the way everyone else does, you’ll have way more available to direct toward things that actually make a difference.my website: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.comAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

It’s pretty obvious that our healthcare system is not helping midlife women thrive.  The limited and often suppressed information available to women is confusing enough on its own.  Then once you finally dive in and make some sense of how you want to approach your hormonal health, why is it so hard to find a good prescriber to work with?Take my Udemy Course about the basics of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for some basic empowering knowledge.send me a message: healthcouragecollective@gmail.comVisit my website for freebies, updates, upcoming programs, etc: www.healthcouragecollective.comProviders certified in Physiologic Restoration Hormone Therapy : https://womenshormonenetwork.org/find-a-provider/World Link Medical Hormone Replacement Certified Providers:https://www.directory.worldlinkmedical.com/search_results I don’t know about BHRT Training Academy, but they have a provider directory here: https://bhrttrainingacademy.com/directory/Are you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

Sometimes there are problems with trying to fix your problems.  You can hack your behavior, do more and more actions, procure more desirable circumstances and really perfect a limited version of yourself.  One who never grows or progresses or frees herself to create the astounding future you deserve.  Or you can start seeing your approach to problems differently.come visit my website: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.comThe Problem with Trying to Fix Your ProblemsIn episode 214 of the Healthcare Collective Podcast, the host discusses the pitfalls of focusing on fixing problems rather than building a brighter future. Using storytelling and real-life examples, including a struggling NBA player, the episode highlights how emphasizing problem-solving can trap individuals in a cycle of limitation. Instead, a shift in perspective is recommended, focusing on creating desired outcomes by addressing internal mental frameworks rather than external circumstances. Listeners are encouraged to rethink their approach to challenges to unlock their full potential.00:00 Introduction: The Problem with Fixing Problems00:33 Welcome and Episode Overview01:15 The Nature of Problem Solving02:53 Case Study: NBA Player's Struggle04:56 Shifting Perspectives on Problems05:37 Health and Fitness Challenges09:00 Building a New Foundation17:13 Exercise: Movement vs. Training18:53 Conclusion and Next StepsAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

There’s a prescription I think almost every woman should eventually be on, but most of them don’t know that it could improve their future.  Things change as we age, but there’s no reason to suffer unnecessarily, especially when there are cheap and easy solutions that can help you live more as you get older, rather than less.  If you want to improve your overall resilience while lowering your risk for urinary tract infections, urinary incontinence, vaginal dryness, pain with sex, and more, I think it’s worth your time to learn about vaginal estrogen and eliminate these problems before they even start.  come to my website: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.comIntroduction: The Prescription Every Woman Should Know About00:24 The Importance of Vaginal Estrogen01:17 Personal Reflections and Exceptions01:52 The Consequences of Ignoring Vaginal Health05:14 Statistics and Realities of Women's Health Issues09:07 Medical Community's Shortcomings09:59 Understanding Vaginal Estrogen and Its Benefits14:31 Challenges and Misconceptions in Prescribing Estrogen16:09 Different Forms of Vaginal Estrogen24:52 Compounded Products and Alternatives26:15 Conclusion: Empowering Women with KnowledgeAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

Initially, lithium was found beneficial in natural springs where the water was high in lithium, then it started being used in soda beverages noted for mood stabilization. Interestingly, lithium is found naturally in the environment and higher levels in drinking water correlate with improved mental health and longevity. Various studies suggest potential benefits of low-dose lithium for cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, metabolic, and cognitive health, while also addressing the risks associated with high dosages. The episode advises listeners to consider lithium supplementation for its potential health advantages and discusses practical ways to incorporate it into daily routines.01:09 A Journey Back to 1860s 02:56 The Rise of Soda and Lithium in Medicine06:27 Lithium: From Mood Stabilizer to Potential Supplement07:40 The Science Behind Lithium's Benefits12:00 Considering Lithium as a Supplement14:38 Practical Tips for Taking LithiumAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

The episode delves into the dangers posed by seemingly insignificant habits—referred to as 'gnats,' 'paper cuts,' and 'kryptonite dust'—and how they can accumulate over time to cause major health issues like cardiovascular disease and diabetes. The host emphasizes the importance of recognizing and eliminating these small, harmful habits to improve health and longevity. The episode also discusses the power of marginal gains, suggesting that small, consistent efforts can lead to significant positive changes over time. Practical tips are provided to help listeners identify and tackle their own small, detrimental habits, thereby enhancing their resilience and overall well-being.00:00 Introduction: The Biggest Threat to Your Long-Term Health00:42 Welcome and Personal Anecdotes01:17 The Hero's Journey and Health03:32 Facing Life's Challenges05:57 The Danger of Small Threats07:07 Compound Interest and Health09:04 Training for Resilience11:52 Identifying and Eliminating Small Threats15:35 The Power of Small ChangesAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

The episode emphasizes the importance of continuous movement to combat the adverse effects of a sedentary lifestyle, comparing the benefits to those of consistent physical exertion experienced by our ancestors. Additionally, it highlights the deleterious effects of prolonged sitting and introduces the concept of 'exercise snacks' or 'movement snacks,' underscoring how these small, frequent activities can vastly improve various health aspects, from reducing the risk of chronic diseases to enhancing mental well-being. The host explains the biological mechanisms at play, such as senescence and telomere health, and provides practical tips for incorporating simple, enjoyable movement routines into daily life. A variety of actual food snack suggestions that align with common health guidelines are also discussed, alongside the core message that intermittent movement is vital for long-term health.00:00 Introduction to Health-Boosting Snacks01:07 Imagining Your Future Health05:33 The Science Behind Movement and Aging07:52 The Dangers of a Sedentary Lifestyle14:46 Introducing Movement Snacks19:35 Practical Tips for Movement Snacks30:29 Fun and Engaging Movement Ideas38:13 Conclusion and Next StepsAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

If doing the healthy behaviors that you feel like you should do always feels like an endless, joyless uphill battle, maybe it’s because you think {q} “being healthy,” -whatever that even means-, is an end in and of itself.  An end that you should obviously want.  That you should be scared of not achieving.  But that’s backward.  Keeping our reasons for creating a healthy physiology in the proper perspective is so easy to overlook.  But seeing things clearly changes everything about how it feels to do the hard work of putting more years lived in good health in your future.come connect with me:  www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me directly: healthcouragecollective@gmail.comTake my Udemy Course about Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy$10 off EYE BUY DIRECT: https://www.eyebuydirect.com/referral/1615995 Lume Deoderant discount: http://lumedeodorant.refr.cc/christinahackett $10 off coupon for your first order at Built Bar.

Instead of viewing health as an end goal, the discussion focuses on using health to enhance one's life and character. The episode dives into the concept of character development through the lens of famous figures and the distinction between 'resume virtues' and 'eulogy virtues.' By caring for one's physical body akin to a musician caring for their instrument, individuals can better engage in life's challenges and personal growth. The importance of maintaining perspective on health and utilizing it to mature morally and spiritually is emphasized, ultimately aiming to add more years lived in good health.00:00 Introduction: The True Meaning of Health00:46 Welcome and Magnesium Check01:29 Caring for Your Instrument: A Metaphor for Health02:53 Challenging Health Norms and Values06:05 The Deeper Purpose of Aging Well08:58 The Struggle for Character and Virtue13:20 The Importance of Humility and Wisdom19:32 Final Thoughts: Health as a Means to an EndAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

Even though I generally love supplements, there are really only 2 or 3 that I would say are mandatory if you want to be healthy.  If you want to lower your chances of developing high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, heart attack, arrhythmias, malignant tumors, kidney stones, cholesterol problems, depression, attention problems or other psychiatric disorders, fatigue, and poor athletic performance, you need enough magnesium.  80% of the American population does not get enough magnesium.  Be in the 20% and your life will be better.Email me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.comNOT affiliate links:MagSRT by JigSaw healthMagnesium Breakthrough by BioOptimizersBook: The Magnesium MiracleAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com
