Today’s episode is so insightful and amazing and I am very excited to share it with you! My guest, Martine De Luna, is a coach who supports women to respect the masculine that we see in men, in life, and in God so that they can return to their feminine nature with their spouses. Martine and I dive into so many of the taboo topics that we experience during our walk through finding our true feminine nature. We touch on the damaging messaging of purity culture and how our biology already has systems in place to protect us and to help us be very selective in finding a mate. We have turned away from the true biology of our feminine nature, and in that, we have missed the wiring of our biology and how it can protect us. We also dive into what it means to be hormonally male and how our body and our biology will automatically flip our hormones to put us in a masculine place with our hormones during the appropriate times in our lives, such as during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We, as women, need to understand when our biology is making these shifts so we can have a more feminine awareness of why we experience hormonal and behavioral shifts and how it impacts our spouses. This episode is full of so much wisdom and insight and I am so excited to share it with you. Tune in today!In this episode:[00:01:54] Welcome my guest in this episode, Martine De Luna.[00:08:04] What does true biological femininity look like?[00:17:32] What is the need of the masculine?[00:19:12] The roles of masculinity and femininity in nature.[00:28:38] Martine shares her view on purity culture. [00:37:15] What does it mean for a woman to be hormonally masculine? [00:47:27] What is the true definition of help-meet in Christianity? [00:56:07] Martine's message for women who feel selfish by prioritizing their femininity in their relationship.[01:01:45] Why are women resentful of their feminine power? [01:06:17] The role of submissiveness and sex in our relationships. [01:08:25] Women are not living in biological harmony in the nuclear family.

Celebrating the 50th episode today, so a big thank you to all of my listeners who have stuck with me throughout this journey as Fully Nourished is seeking to continually improve how we view female physiology on the planes of the physical, the mental, and the spiritual.We are continuing our hormone series today, and we are going to take a deeper dive into plant foods, phytoestrogens, and functional fibers. I’m noticing another pendulum swing where people are beginning to over-demonize plants. There are nuanced examples where women are demonstrating benefits from cutting plants out of their diets, and my fear is that it will become the new fad diet that will push people back into the Carnivore diet, which we’ve already discussed, isn’t ideal, especially for the female physiology. It is critical that we learn to live within the rhythm of our bodies and understand that the spectrum of what our bodies need will shift with the seasons. Instead of approaching our nourishment from a state of fight or flight, we need to sit with our bodies, rest, listen, and pay attention to truly give our bodies what they need. In this episode, we really dive deep into nourishment and the roles that phytoestrogens play in this process. There’s so much more to the story than what you see on social media and in all the crazes that demonize seeds, seed oils, and soybeans. I can’t wait to share it with you and I know you’re going to love this episode. Tune in today! In this episode:[00:46] Welcome to Episode 50 of The Fully Nourished Podcast![02:43] We continue our hormone series today where we talk more about plant foods, phytoestrogens, and functional fibers.[10:28] The three components that the human body needs to gain from our foods. [16:24] Pay attention to the rhythm of your body to provide you with the nourishment you need in a specific season. [23:44] The difference between symptom suppression and true healing.[26:10] The taboo of phytoestrogens.[31:28] The breakdown of phytoestrogens in common foods and the role they play in the body. [33:56] Is there a link between estrogen and androgeny?[41:11] You have my permission to stop being afraid of any specific food group as long as it supports your nourishment.[43:30] Thanks for joining me on the Fully Nourished Podcast today!Links and Resources:Submit Questions Here: https://airtable.com/appoicByQy3UFoSXs/shrXwD7wQFJQr68NnSign Up for Sunday Tea Here: https://jessica-ash-wellness.ck.page/04f86a550fDiscount Codes from Our Sponsors:Subluna: https://shopsubluna.com?sca_ref=6575731.SiVwQ6X9YX*Code JESSICAASH for 10% offIG: @shopsubluna*This is an affiliate link.

Thank you for your patience while I recovered from a cold over the past few weeks. I’m a firm believer that we get sick when we need it, and the recovery and downtime are exactly what I needed, but I’m on the road to recovery, and we are jumping back into our hormone series with a Q&A on Estrogen in today’s episode. The story of estrogen begins in the 1960s when hormonal birth control comes on the scene and has this big push encouraging women to supplement with estrogen to increase their femininity. It is not uncommon to see what we are currently seeing in the menopause crowd today. However, we are leaving out a crucial component of the impact of hormones in our body, resulting from appropriate progesterone levels. Progesterone is what keeps our estrogen in check and keeps us from tipping the scales into an estrogen imbalance. Now, if you find yourself in a state of estrogen dominance, there are ways that you can tip the scales back in your favor, and I cover many of these practices in today’s episode, so be sure to tune in for those tips! We are just scratching the surface of estrogen in the female body, and we take a deeper dive in today’s episode. You won’t want to miss the insight I share today, so be sure to tune in to see where estrogen imbalance might be occurring in your life or how you can avoid estrogen imbalance.In this episode:[00:00:47] Welcome back to The Fully Nourished Podcast![00:01:32] We are continuing our hormone series with a Q&A on Estrogen. [00:14:13] The hormones that keep estrogen in check.[00:18:40] What are the bad estrogens, what impacts are they having, and how do we combat estrogen dominance or imbalance?[00:35:24] What are phytoestrogens, and how do they impact estrogen in our bodies?[00:42:58] Can estrogen contribute to girls getting their periods early?[00:45:56] Can high estrogen cause painful periods?[00:48:35] Is DIM worth taking to detoxify estrogen?[00:53:26] Is hormone replacement therapy a bad thing? [00:59:42] Thanks for joining me on The Fully Nourished Podcast! Links and Resources:Submit Questions Here: https://airtable.com/appoicByQy3UFoSXs/shrXwD7wQFJQr68NnSign Up for Sunday Tea Here: https://jessica-ash-wellness.ck.page/04f86a550fProgesterone in Orthomolecular Medicine: https://ia802902.us.archive.org/11/items/ProgesteroneInOrthomolecularMedicine/Progesterone%20in%20Orthomolecular%20Medicine%20.pdfDiscount Codes from Our Sponsors:Subluna: https://shopsubluna.com?sca_ref=6575731.SiVwQ6X9YX*Code JESSICAASH for 10% offIG: @shopsubluna*This is an affiliate link.
