Suicide Sucks is predominantly a podcast where she interviews guests in her camper van with a cup of tea and the dog to cosy up to. She interviews guests who have made attempts on their life but are still here to tell the tale, showing that hope can prevail. Mick also advocates the importance of mental health and well-being and runs sessions in her local community called Reconnect with Nature. These sessions involve awakening your sensors, practising gratitude, doing a focused activity and finally some grounding. Mick has also developed an online experience in order to make nature more accessible to those, who for various reasons, maybe disability, anxiety or agoraphobia, are unable to leave their house. Mick's Notes from the Sidelines: It's interesting how different grief is for everybody. We get scared to show our emotions because it might upset someone else. It's normal to feel anger with grief. The person left us and missed everything that's happened in our lives. Emotional pain manifests in the body as physical pain. Unfortunately, it's not socially acceptable to accept anger in public. Take the time to do the inner work. Move stuck energy and make space for new. If you've got a blockage, find a way that suits you to heal. Reconnect with nature. It's free, available, and make sure to use all the senses to immerse yourself. Getting in nature virtually has the same benefits as being there for real. It's perfect for everyone, even those with disabilities, anxiety, and agoraphobia. Get Vitamin G - grounding in nature. The feet have over 200,000 nerve endings that communicate with the brain. To heal grief, there must be talking. It's not only good for your own healing, but it gives permission to others to express their feelings and tell their story. Grief is a sad club. Find your gang of people who relate because they've been there.

With 20+ years of leadership experience, she took the leap from corporate America into coaching at the age of 50 where she now helps ambitious women break through career barriers, build unshakable confidence, and secure promotions faster. Her clients achieve leadership success by developing strategic career plans, elevating their visibility, and positioning themselves as top candidates for advancement. She specializes in working with gen-x women who are done playing small and want to make the next years the best of their career! Tabatha's Notes from the Sidelines: Are you sidelining yourself by not taking action, driving your career, or advocating for yourself? Can you try saying, "Here are some of my accomplishments and why I'm ready and suitable for the job"? As women, we let people tell us who we are and what we bring. If you aren't feeling well -- migraines, insomnia, fatigue -- go to your doctor. And if your PCP isn't helpful, see a naturopath. "You're not a tree, you can move." And even if you are a tree, you can be dug up and transplanted elsewhere. YOU AREN'T STUCK! Even money doesn't have to hold you back. Make little changes. Women have to get out of their own way and be better about talking up their value and what we bring to the world. Set SMART goals for career and life. SMART stands for specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. To build the confidence to advocate for yourself, start writing down things you're most proud of, so you can see your impact. There are so many things we do that we forget because we have lost our confidence along the way. Journaling helps get negative thoughts out of your head. Ask yourself, "Is this true?" Most of the stuff we tell ourselves isn't; they are just things we heard at some point and decided to believe. See yourself through other people's eyes. Ask trusted friends, "How do you see me? What is the most impactful thing I've done for you? What is something you believe I should be proud of?" Women have a hard time accepting compliments -- just say thank you and sit with it. PROGRESS OVER PERFECTION. PERFECTION KEEPS YOU IN PLACE. Comparison is the thief of joy. Women need to start owning their power when it comes to protecting their time.

She also maintains an active hospital position as an OB laborist providing vital inpatient coverage to laboring moms at Jefferson Abington Hospital in the Philadelphia suburbs several times a month.

When not practicing medicine, she spends time in her garden, going to see live music, and savoring every moment she can with her 3 amazing kids. Dr. Cat's Notes from the Sidelines: 100% of women will experience menopause. Medical students get little education on menopause, perimenopause, and hormone replacement therapy. The average age for a woman in menopause is 52, but women can experience symptoms for up to 10 years. Menopause is defined as a full year without a period and being over 50. After that, women are post-menopausal. Symptoms of menopause overlap symptoms of other conditions -- brain fog, sleep issues, irritability, sexual side effects, weight gain, hair changes, skin changes, and joint pain. There are over 100 symptoms of menopause. Symptoms are evidence of the issue. Lab tests don't need to prove what you already know is true. We need to empower women with knowledge about their bodies so they can recognize when things are changing. If you start to notice subtle changes, jot them down in a symptom journal. Information is powerful. There are options for lifestyle changes if hormone replacement therapy is avoided, starting with dietary changes. Stay away from processed food -- we don't know how the chemical compounds in them react in our bodies. We also don't tend to notice our hunger and satiety signals, and we don't pay attention to how food makes us feel. If you don't feel listened to, get a second opinion. Women need to feel empowered to keep going until they're listened to and offered the treatment they want. We're our best version of our selves when our hormones are optimized. Ways we can support our bodies through menopause include exercising, eating a nutrient-rich diet, and possibly including phytoestrogens and supplements. Menopause should not be dreaded; it doesn't have to be your decline.

Her memoir published in 2022, entitled “When the Apple Falls Far from the Tree,” outlines a lifetime of adversity and the tools she used to make it to the other side. From growing up with chaos in a house of violence, to cancer recovery, multiple weight loss surgeries, a newly sober lifestyle, and a spiritual awakening- Jill feels compelled to share the “gifts” she has discovered along her path of personal growth. She is the creator of the blog site, justbeingjill.com and also writes under the pen name, Margo Reilly. Jill has recently completed a life coach course and soon hopes to be assisting others with their own transformational journeys. Jill is proud to release her second memoir, When You Shake the Family Tree. In her latest work, she details her journey of self-acceptance and healing after learning she was not exactly who she thought she was after taking an Ancestry DNA test.She is eager to share how she navigated her identity crisis in hopes of inspiring others to find their way forward.Jill's Notes from the Sidelines: Jill's Notes from the Sidelines: Be relatable. There's no such thing as perfect. Don't think you don't have a problem just because you're not hurting anyone else. In all the lessons, there's a blessing. We have to choose ourselves. All the things that happened with our parents helped shape us, but we decide what we're taking into the future. It's amazing what happens when we start writing down our stories. The excavation is cathartic. Get curious about the patterns that are repeating in your family and decide to be the cycle breaker. Speak the shame out loud. The messy middle never goes away. You're always going to be in the thick of something; you have to rely on yourself and find the wisdom within to get through it. We all have traumas -- whether it's big T or little T trauma. You have things in your life that you didn't like. Decide what is yours and what is theirs. Just because they're your family doesn't mean you have to deal with them, like them, put up with them, or open your door to them. Don't feel obligated to anyone. It's never too late to start the work. People who think they're sailing through life need to get curious about fulfillment. Find a community of like-minded people.

Classically trained at Le Cordon Bleu in San Francisco, she uses her culinary expertise to create rich flavors with nourishing ingredients and has been a professional chef for the last 14 years. She is an advocate for people with chronic health ailments, animal welfare, and the environment. Her own plant-based journey started with her desire to heal her chronic pain from a 16-year battle with endometriosis after exhausting all other options. She furthered her studies with a certification in plant-based nutrition from T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and is a certified Health Coach from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Bailey now owns her business with her husband, Steve. The author of bestselling cookbook, Breaking Up With Dairy. Bailey lives in sunny San Diego, California, with Steve and their two rescue pups, Coconut and Pina. Bailey's Notes from the Sidelines: There is a link between diet and female issues. Your doctor is just one tool in the toolbelt. Doctors are good, well-meaning people, but they've only received an average of 5 hours of nutrition training. Keto, paleo, carnivore and ancestor diets...oh my! Neanderthals only lived long enough to procreate. We need to evolve our diets for our longevity and the planet's. With social media, there's so much misinformation, targeted ads, and government lobbying. Government subsidies give a false sense of low cost to the production of meat and dairy. It's actually very expensive. You need to have compassion for yourself and realize no one is coming to save you. It's not just animals suffering within the food industry, so are the workers! Cities with slaughterhouses have higher rates of domestic violence, suicide, alcoholism, and drug addiction. Lobbying and ads target our pleasure centers, so we don't connect to the suffering. "Your genetics hold the gun, but your diet pulls the trigger." If you blame your condition on genetics, you release all the power. Casomorphins in dairy create chemical reactions that cause a dopamine release, leading you to feel safe. Dairy is cow breast milk! The first stage of "Breaking Up With Dairy" is denial. Understand what dairy really is and then treat yourself like an addict; deal with being uncomfortable and having cravings. Most people wait until it's too late. Be your own savior. Start small. Make choices for your future self. If you want to make a big change, don't tell your friends or family. Bai's ideas for how to glow from within: daily smoothie, no-sugar green juice, juicing, dessert earlier in the day, no refined sugar. Use natural fiber pillowcases, wash pillowcases every week, sleep with hair in bun. Bai's skincare regimen: in the evening -- oil cleanser to remove makeup, wipe with wet, clean washcloth, elta md foaming cleanser, tone, vitamin E oil every other day (alternate with retinol), moisturizer, eye cream, blue algae oil. In the morning -- don't wash face, tone, vitamin C serum, hyaluronic acid, moisturizer, sunscreen. Have strong boundaries with yourself, expectations , and people in your life.

Primarily an artist and jazz vocalist, she is also a writer and third generation teacher. She lucked into a lucrative career singing jingles, and around the same time began assistant teaching in various disciplines at a women’s correctional facility in New York, a role she would continue in for almost twenty years. She has also continued to lead art and vocal workshops in various other communities. As a visual artist she has designed everything from packaging to theater posters to tattoos, and has shown her porcelain sculptures and paintings in galleries in New York and Connecticut. She also performs with her jazz trio and quartet. Melissa's Notes from the Sidelines: Growing up with celebrities, like any larger-than-life parents, can leave one with a feeling of living in shadows. When you experience good fortune, ask what you can do for the world. Try not to make assumptions about others; people are almost never what you think they are. In some scenarios, ego development can leave you wondering if you are important. Remember that you do get to feel important, especially as a mom. Feeling critical of what you said and did in different situations is totally normal. Talking to strangers allows you to get out of the ego self and thinking of others. All kids need to be successful in the world is unconditional love and chores. Advice learned from Paul and Joanne: respect each other's job and daily accomplishments, have a shared love of music and art, be passionate and sweet to each other, and love each other Take care of yourself as you age, and stretch! Everybody has something to offer. Compliment people. Your opinion is valid.

We are allowed to say, "This is not okay," and we can turn our pain into purpose, because we can't let it derail us. Sometimes you have to go back and heal your younger version... it's called inner child work. Whether you experienced Big T or little T trauma, don't dismiss it because it was in the past. You can heal and introduce play. Families have unwritten rules and dynamics that can stop us from being our true selves. If you don't put yourself out there and share your story, the people who need to hear it won't have their growth opportunity. We all want someone to talk to, but we've been societalized to shame misery and unpleasant feelings. SHAME IS BROKEN IN COMMUNITY AND CONVERSATION! We have to love ourselves enough to go through this world real and authentic. Some people won't like that you've set up boundaries, but boundaries are the ultimate act of self-love. The people who don't like your boundaries are the ones who benefitted from you not having any. When you get a compliment, say THANK YOU.

She started as a traditional gynecological surgeon and transitioned her career to focus on regenerative and integrated medicine. Recognizing the urgent need to tackle stubborn aging symptoms, she focuses solely on regenerative medicine, aiming to address root causes and promote optimal health without relying on pharmaceuticals. Dr. Hall is passionate about guiding clients to attain peak well-being and proactively ward off the expected decline, employing established natural and regenerative approaches. Dr. Hall's Notes from the Sidelines: With traditional medicine, we're putting bandaids on diseases; let's go to the root cause. When menopause happens, estrogen is gone because the ovaries stop working, resulting in increased stress, blood sugar, LDL cholesterol, and inflammation... which is the perfect storm for cancer. We're energetic beings; each person is unique. Functional medicine looks at the whole body and takes a multi-cause approach to prevention. Whereas western, traditional medicine doesn't do prevention. As Joseph Campbell says, "Follow your bliss." Extended use of the birth control pill can result in brain fog, depression, fatigue, inability to concentrate, uncertainty about sexuality, and weight gain. Estrogen is very important for the brain and is critical for the prevention of neurodegeneration. Individualizing medicine and taking genetics into account is not the traditional method, but it is the functional method. When it comes to your health, seek out the top people in the field and listen to them for your medical information. Advice for menopausal women: recognize the symptoms in your body, have the confidence to tell your doctor what you need because you know your body best, and go to a skilled practitioner who's used to looking at hormones.

Tina was involved with NFL linebacker, Shaun Phillips, with whom she had twin boys. The relationship became physically and emotionally abusive, causing fear, turmoil, and financial strain. Her sons were born premature with serious medical issues, and Tina was left to care for them and fight a lengthy, and still unresolved, battle for child support. She turned her pain into power and purpose, by putting her story out there, starting the "Know Your Power" movement, and supporting as many women as she possibly can. Tina's Notes from the Sidelines: Be thankful for the things right in front of you. If you go about your business and take care of what's important to you, eventually you can deal with other things as they come up. Every day is a new day. If you can get through what you already got through, then you know you can get through anything. Trust your instincts and intuition. Don't focus on the negativity. You have your own situation and you have to look at yourself and know you're the only one who knows all the pieces to your puzzle. Dig deep and know what you want for yourself and your kids. Take control, decide, and let go. Don't beat yourself up if you're not financially secure. Put together a plan, write down daily goals, check them off as you finish them, and if you don't know where to start... as someone for help. Open your ears, listen, and be receptive. There are so many caring people in this world and people who want friends. Don't make any big decisions in one day; take a moment to sit with it. Come forward with your story; don't stay quiet. Utopia is not a fairytale. It's being grateful for the day today, and being of sound mind and health so you can move forward.

After years of drowning in debt and brokenness, Mignon founded The Cupcake Collection in 2008, a business that started from the last five dollars she had to feed her family dinner for one week, and she turned it into a legacy with over 5 million cupcakes sold. Mignon's grassroots story of success has garnered national attention from such media outlets as Today with Hoda and Jenna , Southern Living , Entrepreneur , Business Insider , just to name a few. Today Mignon is committed to teaching anyone who will listen what they can do if only they believe. Mignon's Notes from the Sidelines: A village of supportive and championing sisters makes all the difference. Nothing just happens. All things are working for your good. Hope leads to opportunity. It won't always be like this. Everybody's challenges are different and they are all hard and real, but you will not be given anything you don't have the capacity to change and bear. "God transcends religion...Religion is our perspective on where we saw the accident happen at the intersection...It's our interpretation." You have to have a vehicle for hope. When facing challenges, know that you are in a season of growth and something big is about to happen. "Speak what you seek 'til you see what you said." The words we say have power. We call HIM into collaboration with us by simply speaking our words. He's always listening, so be careful. You don't have to stay stuck; you don't have to accept current circumstance as a sentence. Hope and doubt are both beliefs - one positive and one negative. Your faith is in the middle, equidistant from both. HELP is a complete and sufficient prayer; you don't need other words because he's all-seeing and all-knowing. After asking for help, knock on the doors of opportunity, and don't stop just because one person says no. God sends us seasons to season us, so be ready when the season changes to do the new thing that has been sent to you. BELIEVE.

She became a teen mom at 16 to twins who spent 3 months in the NICU and, subsequently, have disabilities. She spent her entire life trying to please people; she really just wanted people to like her. When she turned 40, she realized how unhappy she was with the life that she created. She realized that she was giving everything away, and the people that she had closest to her relied upon that. Her second divorce happened shortly after that. She still battles with people pleasing, but she had to go through such a painful transition that she no longer feels like she puts other first. Steph's website Steph's podcast Steph's Notes from the Sidelines: "He did me a favor." Sometimes we don't see the blessings that come with unfortunate circumstances. Fact is stranger than fiction. When you learn how to pick yourself up from nothing, it burns away all the negative self-talk because you prove yourself against your own thoughts. You CAN afford to leave; you'll figure it out. Life is too short to be on the floor crying in the bathroom. There are no mistakes; life is what it is. The more you can talk about the things you've been through, the more you realize that there are no mistakes; life can just be really hard sometimes, and life can be really great, but it doesn't make you a bad or good person. Trust your gut; it's always right. And don't give your power away. Find people who support you, and don't settle until you find someone, or multiple people, who worship the ground you walk on. **The information provided on this podcast does not, and is not intended to constitute legal or medical advice; all information, content, and material on this site are for general informational purposes only.

Now, as a mother to three remarkable women, she's continually inspired by their spirit, which fuels her determination to be the best version of herself. Surviving cancer, stroke, and a heart transplant taught her to cherish every moment and embrace adventure as a dog mom, fisherwoman, and avid hiker. She's also a resilience coach, guiding others through life's challenges with wit, kindness, and generosity. A master chef known for crafting delectable dishes that nourish body and soul, she's also passionate about hiking, fly fishing, reading, writing, and exploring new horizons. Described as resilient, witty, and authentic, she's a beacon of strength and courage, facing life's storms with grace and determination. With an unyielding optimism and thirst for adventure, she believes in the power of kindness and human connection, guided by the mantra, "Embrace life, cherish every moment, and never lose sight of the blessings that surround you." Jessica's Notes from the Sidelines: We need to be mindful of others because maybe they're going through something and not just deliberately being unkind. Not only should we have compassion for others, but we should have patience and compassions for ourselves. Be curious -- ask yourself, "Would it be possible... I wonder what would happen if I did this?" Make sure to prioritize yourself and communicate your needs to others. Remember, it's not happening TO ME, but FOR ME. Maybe there's a lesson and it will make me more grateful. To accept lack of control and practice patience, feel the frustration in your body, find something grounding, and go back to basics and feel grateful and accomplished, and then FEEL JOY. Gratitude + Joy = Resilience I can control how I feel and show up. Do the basics: gratitude journal, set intention for the day, and see joy and do joyful things It's not selfish to prioritize yourself; don't feel guilty about it.
