Episode Highlights
[03:37] Jackie’s Medical Journey
● Jackie does a lot of work with hormones, and they work with people of all ages. However, many people — even children — are experiencing hormone disruptions today.
[03:37] Jackie: "It's really our practices, focusing on how the body was designed by God, and how can we work with it to really help that person heal through all stages of life."
● Jackie tries to help people return to what she believes is the body's "natural" state. She thinks that's what God intends for the human body.
● Her journey began when she went to Church, and the message was about procrastination. Jackie had been delaying trying to put her business together.
● According to Jackie, God placed her where she was. Her work isn’t a job.
[13:47] Breaking the Silence Around Menopause
● The guest, Jackie, tackles the stigma around menopause and how discussing it can help many women.
● According to Jackie, God works through our weaknesses, including our trials through menopause.
● Jackie encourages women to speak openly about menopause and seek help when needed.
[27:07] The Environmental Impact on Natural Hormone Balance
● Focusing on nourishing the body and taking care of one's health from an early age is essential.
● Many commercial products aren't good for you — they change the makeup of your body, especially your hormones.
● It's best to take early action against hormonal changes.
● Jackie criticizes the use of anxiety medications, highlighting that they temporarily alleviate symptoms, not heal.
[38:25] Caution Against Synthetic Hormones
● Jackie stresses the importance of finding a reliable healthcare provider for hormone tests.
● According to Jackie, synthetic hormones only trick your body into thinking it has the correct hormone levels.
● Jackie thinks there are alternative ways to handle hormonal disruptions and return to your natural hormone balance.
● Sleep is a time to heal when the body can really rest and regenerate. Hormonal imbalances can disrupt our sleeping patterns.
[49:25] Reagan: “Once you realize, like, you know, my hormone levels are all over the place. I am going through perimenopause or menopause, then you have more peace about it.”
● All hormones work as messengers in the human body. Bioidentical hormones are almost exactly the same as natural ones, but synthetics aren’t quite the same.
[50:34] Finding Your Place Through God
● You might find your God-assigned place at any point in life. Some people find it in childhood. Jackie found it much later.
● Jackie believes God used Sunday church sessions to soften her heart.
● She went through multiple medical practices before finding the right place for her.
