EP 190 \ You Can’t Heal in the Same Pattern That Made You Sick

4/7/2026
Many women are not stuck because they are lazy or uninformed. They are stuck because they are still operating in the same pattern that made them sick in the first place. In this episode, Lori talks about why quick fixes keep women trapped, why symptom suppression is not the same as healing, and why guiding the body back toward God’s design is possible.

EP 188 \ Why You Feel Disconnected From Your Body (And Where It Started)

3/24/2026
If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body… like you don’t trust your hunger, your energy, or your hormones anymore… this didn’t happen by accident. In this video, I walk through how women are conditioned from a young age to ignore their body’s signals—from period pain to blood sugar crashes to the birth experience—and how that leads to feeling exhausted, stuck, and out of sync. This is not about blaming you. It’s about finally understanding what your body has been trying to tell you all along. Your body is not broken. You just weren’t taught the language. 👉 Apply to work with me: https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/application 👉 Read the full blog: https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/blog/188 SHOW NOTES: Notes, reference, freebies, and recommendations from this episode can be found at - https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/blog/184 This is the newly rebranded podcast, formerly known as "Your Birth, God's Way".

EP 186 \ Everyday Products That Are Making You Sick: Water Contamination

3/10/2026
Show Notes: https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/blog/186 Most people assume drinking water is neutral, but modern water supplies can contain more than minerals and microbes. In this episode, we unpack how contaminants such as PFAS, trace pharmaceuticals, chlorine byproducts, fluoride, and microplastics enter drinking water and how these exposures interact with hormone health. We also discuss practical filtration strategies and simple ways to reduce exposure while maintaining perspective and balance.

EP 185 \ Everyday Products That Are Making You Sick: Cleaning Products

3/3/2026
SHOW NOTES: Notes, reference, freebies, and recommendations from this episode can be found at - https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/blog/185 Many common household cleaning products contain more than just soap. They often include quaternary ammonium compounds (quats), synthetic fragrance, chlorine compounds, and volatile organic compounds that can interfere with hormone balance over time. In this episode, we break down how cleaning chemicals enter the body through inhalation and skin contact, why “disinfect everything” culture may be doing more harm than good, and how these exposures can affect thyroid signaling, reproductive hormones, insulin regulation, lung health, and the nervous system. You’ll learn: What quats are and where they hide How chlorine and bleach impact indoor air Why strong scent does not equal clean How repeated low-level exposure adds to endocrine load Practical, non-extreme swaps that reduce chemical stress This conversation focuses on discernment, not fear. Most surfaces do not require constant disinfecting. Mechanical cleaning with soap and water is often enough. Reducing chemical exposure lowers hormonal interference — but removing disruption is only step one. Restoring metabolic and endocrine function requires rebuilding intentionally. This episode is part of the Endocrine Disruptor Series exploring everyday exposures quietly impacting women’s health. This is the newly rebranded podcast, formerly known as "Your Birth, God's Way".

EP 184 \ Everyday Products That Are Making You Sick: Plastics

2/24/2026
Show Notes: Notes, references, freebies, and recommendations from this episode can be found here - https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/blog/184 Plastic is one of the most normalized sources of endocrine disruptors in modern life. It’s in food storage containers, water bottles, canned goods, non-stick cookware, and takeout packaging. But plastic is not chemically inert. Under certain conditions, the additives used to make plastic durable, flexible, or heat-resistant can migrate into the food and drinks we consume daily. In this episode, we break down how chemicals like BPA, BPS, phthalates, and PFAS move from plastic products into your body. You’ll learn how heat, fat, acidity, and time increase chemical migration, why ingestion is the most significant exposure route, and how these compounds act as hormone imposters once inside the body. We discuss how plastic-related endocrine disruptors can: Mimic estrogen Lower progesterone Interfere with thyroid signaling Increase insulin resistance Contribute to fertility challenges Add to metabolic dysfunction This conversation also explains why women are particularly vulnerable due to hormonal cycling, pregnancy, postpartum shifts, and fat tissue storage. Most importantly, we cover practical, non-extreme changes that lower exposure in your kitchen, including avoiding heating plastic, switching to glass storage, replacing damaged non-stick cookware, and being strategic with canned foods and bottled water. Reducing plastic exposure lowers endocrine load. But removing interference is only the first step. Restoring hormone balance requires rebuilding metabolic function intentionally. This episode is part of the Endocrine Disruptor Series, where we explore the everyday exposures quietly impacting women’s health and what to do about them with clarity and strategy.

EP 183 \ Everyday Products That Are Making You Sick: Fragrances & Air Fresheners

2/17/2026
SHOW NOTES: https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/blog/183 Fragrance is one of the most common endocrine disruptors in modern homes, and most women are exposed to it daily without realizing it. In this episode, we explain what “fragrance” actually means on ingredient labels and how synthetic scent chemicals can affect hormone balance, thyroid function, fertility, metabolism, and the nervous system. You’ll learn how fragrance chemicals enter the body through inhalation and skin contact, why they can mimic estrogen, and how they may contribute to symptoms like PMS, infertility, migraines, anxiety, and stubborn weight gain. We also break down where fragrance hides, including laundry detergent, dryer sheets, candles, plug-ins, cleaning products, trash bags, and personal care items. If you’ve been searching for answers about endocrine disruptors, hormone imbalance, clean living, fragrance safety, thyroid health, or how to create a fragrance-free home, this episode will give you practical clarity without fear or overwhelm. This is part of a series on environmental toxins and women’s hormone health. Subscribe for more conversations on hormone balance, thyroid support, fertility, metabolism, and holistic women’s health.

EP 180 \ To The Man Whose Wife Has Gone Crunchy

1/27/2026
This episode is for husbands whose wives have begun questioning food, health practices, and medical norms often described as “crunchy.” Many women make this shift after pregnancy, motherhood, or personal health challenges, and it is often driven by responsibility, protection, and lived experience rather than fear. In this episode, we explain why women become more attentive to ingredients, hormones, nervous system health, and long-term wellness, and how men can respond with calm leadership and support without needing immediate agreement. We discuss how a man’s response during this season can either strengthen unity in marriage or create unnecessary tension. This conversation is designed to help couples navigate differences in health perspectives with understanding, steadiness, and mutual respect. Topics include marriage, motherhood, family leadership, health discernment, and supporting a spouse through change. This is the newly rebranded podcast, formerly known as "Your Birth, God's Way".

EP 179 \ Seed Oils and the Female Body: What Nutrition Guidelines Don’t Explain

1/20/2026
Seed oils are widely promoted as “heart-healthy” and appear in most modern nutrition guidelines — yet many women continue to struggle with inflammation, fatigue, hormone imbalance, and weight loss resistance while following this advice. In this episode, we explore how seed oils interact with the female body, why highly processed industrial fats affect inflammation, metabolism, hormone signaling, and nervous system regulation, and what nutrition guidelines often fail to explain about fat quality, oxidation, and real-world metabolic health. This conversation covers: What seed oils are and how they are made Why polyunsaturated industrial fats are biologically unstable How seed oils can contribute to chronic inflammation and metabolic stress The connection between fat quality, hormone signaling, and insulin resistance Why women are especially vulnerable to the effects of modern fats Healthier fat choices that better support metabolism and hormonal balance This episode is not about fear, food rules, or perfection. It’s about understanding how modern nutrition guidelines can overlook female physiology — and how to make informed, nourishing choices that support long-term health. If you’ve ever wondered why eating “healthy” still leaves you feeling unwell, this episode offers clarity and context you won’t find on a food label. https://www.heart.org/en/news/2024/08/20/theres-no-reason-to-avoid-seed-oils-and-plenty-of-reasons-to-eat-them This is the newly rebranded podcast, formerly known as "Your Birth, God's Way".

EP 178 \ The New Food Pyramid: What It Gets Right—and What It Leaves Out (From a Clinician Who Actually Works With Women)

1/13/2026
The food pyramid just got an update — and while there are a few changes worth applauding, there are also critical gaps that matter deeply for women’s health. In this episode, I break down what the new food pyramid gets right, what it improves on, and what it still leaves out, especially when it comes to metabolism, hormones, blood sugar regulation, and real-life nourishment for women in every season of motherhood. As a clinician who works daily with women struggling with fatigue, weight gain, insulin resistance, hormone imbalance, and burnout, I want you to understand how to read these guidelines with wisdom instead of blindly following a graphic. We’ll talk about: What the updated food pyramid actually changed Where it’s moving in the right direction Why “eat less, move more” thinking still sneaks in What’s missing for women with hormone or metabolic dysfunction Why protein, blood sugar balance, and nervous system support matter more than food categories How population-wide guidelines often fail individual women What to consider instead if you’re tired of guessing with your health This episode is not about fear, food rules, or perfection. It’s about discernment, context, and learning how to steward your body well — especially if you’ve tried “doing everything right” and still don’t feel well. If you’ve ever looked at the food pyramid and thought, “Why doesn’t this work for me?” — this episode is for you. 🎧 Listen now and learn how to approach nutrition guidelines with clarity, confidence, and common sense.
