Welcome back to Making Self-Care! I’m your host, Chelsea De Souza, and today we’re diving into a powerful connection between gut health and intuition. As women, we often say, “I just had a gut feeling,” and more often than not, we’re right. But can we truly trust our gut if our health is imbalanced?
In this episode, we explore how stress, diet, and lifestyle impact our microbiome and intuition. I share my personal journey of postpartum anxiety, burnout, and the realization that poor gut health can distort our internal guidance system. We discuss how God speaks through our bodies, how stress can cloud our judgment, and how healing our gut can restore clarity and confidence in our decisions.
Join me as I outline the Five Dailies—simple yet transformative habits that will help you reclaim your health, energy, and trust in yourself. Plus, I share my sister’s incredible story of overcoming cancer through unwavering commitment to wellness.
If you’re ready to take charge of your health in 2025, this episode is for you. Tune in and let’s embark on the journey to true wellness together!

Stress is inevitable, but chronic stress doesn’t have to control our lives. In this episode, I dive into what really happens when stress hits—from the hormones involved (hello, cortisol!) to the ways it impacts our bodies, minds, and hearts. We’ll explore how men and women experience stress differently, common everyday stressors, and why the typical solutions might not be enough.
Then, I’ll share my favorite holistic strategies for lowering cortisol and finding real relief, covering mental, spiritual, physical, and even cellular approaches. Whether it’s practical tips you can use right now, a deep dive into how adaptogens like Ashwagandha work, or a simple stress inventory to figure out where your tension is coming from, this episode is packed with actionable insights.
Join me to learn how to calm your body, reset your mind, and start nurturing a healthier, more balanced stress response—just in time for the holiday season. And don’t forget to register for our upcoming class on Reducing Cortisol and Balancing Stress for even more support!

Summary:
In this conversation, Chelsea discusses the significance of understanding the different phases of the menstrual cycle and how they can impact work dynamics, energy levels, and decision-making. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing when to rest, brainstorm, take action, and reflect, aligning these phases with seasonal metaphors. The discussion also touches on the role of male colleagues in this cycle synchronization and how it can enhance workplace productivity. Additionally, Chelsea and Paige share insights on managing decision fatigue as a leader and the importance of self-care and collaboration within teams.
takeaways
Red phase is a time for rest and minimal planning. Yellow phase allows for brainstorming but no action. Green phase is the action phase where plans are executed. Blue phase focuses on task-oriented work and reflection. It's important to give yourself grace during low energy phases. The 'parking lot' method helps manage ideas and tasks. Men can match the energy of women in the workplace. Effective leadership involves coaching others to take ownership. Self-care is not just personal; it involves team dynamics. Organizing work around cycle phases can enhance productivity. The Role of Men in Cycle Awareness Navigating Work with Cycle Awareness "Red is your rest week." "Yellow is spring, brainstorming phase."
