☠1 big mistake women make when struggling with hormonal acne.☠⁣ ⁣ Ok, Tuesday Tea 🍵. I’ve seen 100s of videos, articles, and posts from women searching for a solution to hormonal breakouts…⁣ ⁣ They’ve trying “everything”: dozens of skincare regimens, treatments, fancy serums, concealers...⁣ ⁣ Big mistake in healing hormonal acne: Investing time and $$$ into skincare and cosmetics FIRST 😮.⁣ ⁣ Controversial take from a @beautycounter consultant, I know 🙃.⁣ ⁣ Don’t get me wrong. I LOVE safer cosmetics and science-driven skincare. But it’s the icing on top of root cause internal work 💁🏻‍♀️.⁣ ⁣ 5 Keys to Healing Hormonal Acne⁣ Specific tactics vary (ya bio-individuality!) - but here are few places to start. It’s not an exhaustive list!⁣ ⁣ 1️⃣ Relax at meals!⁣ Upper G.I. dysfunction is the most common issue I see in my practice. Get into rest + digest mode! Lots of nuance here, but start with close screens 📱💻 and slowing down.⁣ ⁣ 2️⃣ Identify & eliminate food triggers.⁣ Commonly inflammatory foods: wheat, dairy, corn, soy. Over time these compromise your gut barrier, leading to inflammation (like acne).⁣ ⁣ 3️⃣ Eat quality, diverse fats⁣ To stay full, support body’s anti-inflammatory process (wassup Omega-3s 🐟🍣), build healthy hormones and skin structure.⁣ ⁣ 4️⃣ Regulate blood sugar⁣ The Standard American Diet is SO high in sugar and refined carbs. Resetting your palate and focusing on nutrient-dense options will help balance your energy and let your adrenals recover.⁣ ⁣ 5️⃣ Sleep & play⁣ You could have “perfect” diet and exercise, but if ya aren’t sleeping 😴 or resetting - you won’t balance your cycle and skin. Period. Reducing mental stress is important!⁣ ⁣ 👩🏻‍🏫I help my Root Cause Reset clients do ALL the above with a Nutrition & Lifestyle Audit, lab testing 🙌🏼 (available this spring!) and Custom Wellness Plan. Enrollment’s full, but hop on the waitlist (link in bio). You’ll get first dibs for April!⁣ ⁣ #skinhealing #acneprone #acneproneskin #hormonalacne #naturalskincare #saferskincare #switchtosafer #cleanswaps #accutane #forever35 #almost30 #beautycounter #organicbeauty #organicskincare #dowhatfeelsgood #realfoodheals Daysy 2.0 is coming! This is the fertility tracker I’ve used for almost 2yrs after ditching hormonal birth control.⁣ ⁣ How does it work?⁣ I take my oral basal body temperature (BBT) as soon as I wake up using Daysy. She tells me my fertility status (to 99.4% accuracy) with 1 of these lights:⁣ 💚Green = infertile⁣ 💛Yellow = Daysy is learning cycle, treat like red light to avoid pregnancy.⁣ ❤️Red = fertile. Use barrier method, or run the red light if you want a 👶🏻. ⁣ ⁣ That easy.⁣ ⁣ Why Daysy?⁣ 🗓 I recommend ALL women learn about their cycle + how to do a traditional chart first. The book 📚 Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler is amazing 🙌🏼.⁣ 💕Beyond that, I chose Daysy because I wanted a simple routine for tracking my fertility. I also wanted more headspace for healing my body after taking hormonal birth control for ~11yrs.⁣ ⁣ What’s new with Daysy 2.0?⁣ 💚Bluetooth syncing: No. more. dongles/cables! ⁣ 💚Improved construction: There were a couple cases of devices cracking where the syncing cable attached. This happened to me, but customer support promptly replaced my device. (BTW, customer service is so quick + helpful when I have questions about my device or chart!)⁣ 💚More cycle editing features: Like inputting menstruation, something that HAD to be done within 18hrs in current/previous devices.⁣ 💚Rechargeable battery! 💚Redesigned central button: Sometimes my morning hand feels too weak to push the button on the current device 😂😴.⁣ ⁣ 👇🏼Learn more👇🏼⁣ 💚Daysy 2.0 will start shipping 3/29.⁣ 💚I’m grateful to use the new @daysyfertilitytracker ahead of the official launch! When my device arrives I’ll do a live video in my private FB group 👉🏼(search: Gut Health, Skincare Tips, and Hormone Balancing for Boss Babes).⁣ ⁣ 👩🏻‍🏫 I’ll compare devices, share my honest experience, and answer any Q’s you have. If you want me to answer your question anonymously, send it via DM!⁣ ⁣ #daysyfertilitytracker #periodrepair #cyclesandsex #daysy #femtech #fertilitytracker #takingchargeofyourfertility #fertilitymonitor #bbt #fertility #empoweringwomen⁣ What’s a nutritional therapist + what does it mean for clients? You’ve seen a lot of titles when it comes to getting your nutrition on point: Registered dietitian, health coach, personal trainer, nutritionist… 🤔⁣ ⁣ 👩🏻‍🏫I’m a certified Nutritional Therapy Consultant (NTC) via @ntatraining. I often just say “nutritionist” for brevity. I DON’T diagnose or treat disease. I DO help clients find and improve the ROOT CAUSE of their symptoms.⁣ ⁣ & I’m not for everyone 🤷🏻‍♀️:⁣ ⁣ I don’t believe a vegan or vegetarian diet provides optimal long-term health.⁣ ⁣ I won’t tell you what you want to hear. I will hold you accountable with love and support.⁣ ⁣ I won’t give you a prescriptive menu plan - I’ll TEACH you how to choose nourishing food for YOUR body’s unique needs. ⁣ Here’s what I believe in at DITEA Wellness: ⁣ ⁣ 🥗LOTS of veggies⁣ 🥑🥚Quality, diverse fats + oils⁣ 🐄Responsibly raised & wild-caught animal and seafood products as part of a healthy diet⁣ 👩🏻‍🌾Eating local & in season as much as possible⁣ ⁣ (…basically what ya great great grandparents ate!)⁣ ⁣ 🗣This way of eating is not a fad.⁣ ⁣ 👩🏻‍🏫In my signature 1:1 Root Cause Reset program we support these foundations:⁣ ⁣ Digestion (KEYYY)⁣ Blood Sugar⁣ Fatty Acids⁣ Minerals⁣ Hydration⁣ ⁣ To improve overall health. &It STARTS with food. If you’re fed up with confusing nutrition, remember: real food heals.⁣ ⁣ That me, your online nutritional therapist. What do you do??

Summers are action packed for both of us with little time for travel, so it was nice to escape the Polar Vortex together for some warm weather ☀️.⁣ ⁣ Neil has been my partner and travel buddy for almost 8 years. So grateful for this fella every day. No one else I’d rather get lost with at Costco 😜🛒.⁣ ⁣ Loved taking the past week off for quality time. Back to regularly scheduled snow and work tomorrow! I’ll be hunkering down in this 🌨 blizzard to catch up with clients and my inbox over the next couple days 👩🏻‍💻.⁣ ⁣ 👉🏼📸: Wedding photos by @cassierosch. Dress custom by @iconoclasp. ⁣ ⁣ #northshore #oahu #northshorehawaii #joshuatree #greenweddingshoes (SWIPE) 👉🏼 How eating more + exercising less can improve results. ⁣ ⁣ Conventional media wants you to believe that you’ll feel your best and find your happy weight if you...⁣ 🏃🏻‍♀️Exercise more (“more cardio - spin for the win!”🚴🏻‍♀️)⁣ 😫 Diet more, eat less! (“avoid saturated fat!” 🙄)⁣ ⁣ *makes fart noises with mouth*⁣ ⁣ 🙅🏻‍♀️Uh uh honey, for cycling women that does more harm than good. ⁣ ⁣ 🙌🏼 One of my Root Cause Reset (RCR) clients - we’ll call her M - is crushing her goals…while eating plenty of nutrient-dense food and cutting back intense exercise💪🏼.⁣ ⁣ Prior to working together M was a regular at HIIT classes before her busy day at work - but she was exhausted afterward. M was following a low-fat meal plan, but wasn’t seeing progress in weight goals. She was ready to feel better, especially as she transitions off hormonal birth control.⁣ ⁣ 👉🏼👉🏼👉🏼Swipe to read M’s progress after just 2-weeks in RCR. 👎🏼 No low-fat menu, gimmicky supplements, or hours of intense exercise.⁣ 👏🏼Just: Nutrient-dense food (+more fat for healthy hormones!), other movement she enjoys 🏋🏻‍♀️ and a Custom Wellness Plan to support the foundations of health.⁣ ⁣ ✨You have the power to change your health✨⁣ 🙋🏻‍♀️I’m here to give you the tools and be your hype woman along the way!⁣ 😏That’s the power of nutritional therapy.⁣ ⁣ Enrollment for RCR is full, but comment “💪🏼” emoji and I’ll DM ya something special 💕! ⁣ #birthcontrol #naturalcycles #iamwellandgood #realfoodheals #beingboss #dothework #makersgonnamake #freelancelife #entrepreneurlife #womeninbiz 💋 NEW Brow Staple + Safer Glam Picks!
