Education
This episode of Fully Free with Ashley is hosted with a wonderful guest, and Nutritionist, Jessica Ash from the USA. Jessica Ash is a force in this field, as she personally healed herself from many diagnoses including: PCOS, Pre-diabetes, Lupus, Thyroid dysfunction and more- up to a list of 26 labels. Jessica made it her mission after being bedridden, to help other women heal and thrive in their lives by going back to school to become a Nutritionist. I love her commitment to researching metabolism and debunking health myths/stereotypes that are so concentrated in social media culture today. Jessica works one-on-one with American women but she also has online courses that are totally affordable for everyone, including a heal your cycle mini-course and a main foundational women's health course "Fully Nourished." Today we discuss the types of hormonal birth control, the effects of hormonal birth control on women's bodies, how doctors overprescribe the pill to cover up symptoms, the short and long-term effects on our health, how to support our bodies when we come off the pill and how important it is for us to make informed choices for ourselves and our children, related to this synthetic form of birth control. We also touch on FAM (Fertility Awareness Method) as an amazing natural way to be aware of when we ovulate, when we bleed and thus understand when we are fertile. There will be a future episode with all the details about FAM with a specialist as well. I look forward to welcoming Jessica back on the podcast in the future to discuss metabolism, healing and thyroid health. Thank you so much for listening and thank you Jessica for being a light of truth.
