Couch Talk W/ Dr. Anna Cabeca

Today, my very special guest on Couch Talk is Robyn Openshaw. Robyn is an author of 15 books and is known as the “Green Smoothie Girl”… but she is so much more. Our conversation was fantastic and far-ranging…we talked about her reality TV show gig on the program, “Wife Swap”…oh, my goodness…so interesting and hilarious, too. But more importantly we talked about the stunning revelation that changed her life and her family’s as well… and that went on to change the lives of 100’s of thousands of people worldwide. From Green Smoothies and Whole Foods, to Energetic Frequencies Some 10 years earlier than her “Wife Swap” exploits Robyn was in her 30s and on many medications, weighed over 200 lbs.; was struggling after miscarriages and had finally been able to conceive only to have a son who’s health started to fail when he was 7 months old, his illness eventually threatening his life. No-one could seem to help and she took over her family’s diet, got rid of processed foods and focused on a strictly whole foods diet

Today I have a very exciting guest on Couch Talk, Dr. Kara Fitzgerald. I’ll tell you more about Dr. Kara in a moment, but want you to know that she is absolutely brilliant…and she will be talking with us today about methylation. By now, I’m sure you’ve heard conversations – and a good deal of buzz – around the topic of methylation… and even more likely, you are probably a bit confused about what it really is and why it matters to you! It is such an important topic…as many significant health conditions, including: autoimmune diseases, metabolic syndrome, dementia, accelerated aging, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases have been associated in some degree to the issue of methylation imbalance.

Today on Couch Talk I have brought back a previous – and popular – guest, Dr. Lara Briden. Lara is here to talk with us about her recently updated book, Period Repair Manual: Natural Treatment for Better Hormones and Better Periods.She is a naturopathic doctor with some twenty years of experience in women’s health and she runs a hormone clinic in Sydney, Australia. With 4 daughters I can tell you that this is an important resource book – and required reading – in my household! What I love about Lara’s book is that it contains important information for women as they transition through all ages (including having teenage daughters!)…and in her 2nd edition she added an entire new chapter on perimenopause and the menopause transition…! What Happens in Our 40’s? The Good, the Bad…and the Ugly, Too Lara’s key message is to focus on the things you can do in your early 40’s to: stabilize hormone receptors (not too much estrogen and nurturing your natural progesterone production), support your nervous system and your

Today I’m talking to a wonderful innovator named JB Owen. JB talked about her background in the male-dominated construction industry and how that shaped her focus on helping other women in business.

All of us have been touched in some way with the sadness, pain, and loss related to cancer. Today on Couch Talk I am talking with a rising star in the prevention and cure of cancer. Leigh Erin Connealy, M.D. She is a brilliant physician and also a woman who has dealt with hormone problems and cancer concerns herself – throughout most of her life – due to having been a DES baby. Remember DES? Many women in the ’50s, who had pregnancy issues, were put on this so-called wonder drug…and then the research caught up with just how toxic this miracle drug was. DES usage by their moms during pregnancy sentenced all of those babies to lifelong risks for cancer and hormone complications, including infertility challenges. Well, Leigh’s mom had to take DES during her pregnancy due to some ongoing bleeding.
