The Hormone Lady on: Who Does She Think She Is?
Posted by: | CommentsThen the thoughts take over the mind, the body and the soul.
Who do I think I am?
I need to quit thinking about what I love to do and focus on my family and their needs.
I am just being selfish.
If I don’t do this I am going to die.
If I do this my marriage, my children, my family will suffer.
Now is not the time.
Wait until your children are grown.
How are you going to make money?
How are you going to survive ?
How am I going to survive if I don’t do what I love to do?
You repress the passion and it begins: Sadness, Anger, Depression, Anxiety, Weight Gain, Pain, PMS, Hair Loss, …
The suppression of passion- who you are and what you are on this earth to do is at the core of hormone imbalance. Prolonged suppression produces physical, mental, emotional pain and the death of the spirit.
My clients ask: Why do you want to know what my passion is? What my interests are? What would I do if I could do anything I wanted to do no matter what? What does that have to do with hormones?
My answer is: Everything.
I am not a mother but I know what it is like to struggle with doing what you love to do and what you think you need to do and I know this is the core of hormone imbalance. And I know their isn’t a pill or cream that can make it go away. They may relieve the physical symptoms which can certainly help
BUT
Real Hormone Therapy is doing what you love to do. This is the reason I do what I do. This is the reason for creating Club HORMONZ. It’s about Communication, Connection and Power. It’s about education, support, resources and services for you to live your life with PASSION and FUN!

NO, YOU’RE NOT Going Crazy!
Posted by: | CommentsYou Say
I feel like I am going crazy.
Who is that person in my body?
I could kill somebody and not think twice about it.
Did those words come out of my mouth?
If he says that to me one more time I’m going to rip his head off.
Where are my keys?
Sex, Are you kidding me?
They Say
“Mommy you are so mean”.
“What’s wrong with you?”
“ You need to chill out, Mom.”
“You’re crazy.”
“You need to get some help.”
“Is it that time of the month?”
“Did you take your pills?”
You Do
Run yourself ragged taking care of everyone else
Scream at your kids then you feel guilty.
Cry for no reason
Wake up between 2-4 a.m. even though your children are sleeping
Have to drag yourself out of bed in the morning
Exercise and eat well and still can’t lose weight
Take antidepressants, but you are still depressed
You Are Not Alone !
These are some of the statements I hear everyday. If this sounds familiar it could be your hormones. “Hormones”? “Are you kidding me”? “I am not that old”. You’re right. And guess what? It’s not an “old” issue. It doesn’t matter if you are 14, 21, 28, 35, 42….hormones are a part of you from conception to death.
The Reality.
The problem is most people don’t have a clue what hormones really are and what they really do. When hormones are mentioned people think hot flashes and night sweats or a pill you take when you get old to keep those things under control. WRONG.
The REAL Definition of Hormones.
They are chemical messengers that tell ALL of your cells and organs what to do. Now that’s a big deal. This means they affect EVERYTHING from your head to your toes. So your neurological, respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive, gynecological, urological, musculoskeletal, skin, hair, eyes, teeth, nails, bones, joints,…. Now, you get the picture?
Hormones affect our Life AND Life Affects Our Hormones!
Thoughts, Feelings, Beliefs, Pregnancy, Birth, Puberty, Menstruation, Miscarriage
Relationships-Partners, Children, Parents, Siblings, Employers, Coworkers Unfulfilling Work, Food, Alcohol, Caffeine, Illness, Surgery, Trauma, Loss, Death, Divorce,
Separation, Moving, Building, Remodeling AND the most important- Neglected Passion or Creativity.
What Can You Do?
Testing
If you really want to prove to yourself and to everyone around you that you are not crazy, have your hormones tested. When you get a copy of your results, put them in a frame on your kitchen wall for everybody to see you really do have a reason for your behavior.
Time Out
30 minutes in a quiet space. Okay, 10 minutes. This may be in your car or maybe in your closet. No children, no animals, no men. Write on a piece of paper. Before I was married and/or before I had children I used to love to…. Then Do It!
Supplement
Your life with whatever it is you so love to do that when you do it you lose sense of time (That’s PASSION); good food; exercise you enjoy and hormones if you need them
Get Help
In putting the pieces together so you can enjoy your life again.
If you are too tired, too depressed, too anxious or just don’t care to figure it all out. Go to www.hormonz.com and get control of your life. You’ll be glad you did.

It's About Time
Posted by: | CommentsHey Ya’ll, I woke up this morning and said to myself “quit thinking about it, dreaming about it, changing it, Just Do It!”
The website still needs changes; the newsletter isn’t ready; the article isn’t posted, but you gotta start somewhere. It ain’t gonna be perfect. So, here we go.
I’m finally getting in the 21st century and writing a blog. I went back through my emails to see when I had actually started the process and it blew my mind (what mind?). It was almost a year ago! I couldn’t believe it! I am sure my creative, multi-talented, virtual assistant, web designer and friend, Michele, could have told you exactly how long it had been because she’s been listening to me talk about it the entire time. Bless her!
You know it’s all part of that everyday life stuff that kick starts my HORMONAL stuff which makes the ADD worse and there you have it a year later and I wonder how did that happen. Oh well, all I can say is better late than never.
In between my memory lapses a lot has been going on. The Hormone Lady has been traveling the country working @ conferences; attending conferences; meeting new people; eating; moving; building a house (more about that later); moving again; eating; taking care of elderly parents; dealing with illness, death, relationships…life. It’s been wild just like my hormones.
All that listening, learning and watching what people are doing and saying in the medical world; natural world; the consumer world and my world has me bustin’ a gut to share it all with you. Just to give you an idea of the wide range of conferences I attended AARP, ACOG (American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology), AUA (American Urological Association),WHNP (Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner), Speaking on Women’s Health, International Red Hat Society, Natural Products Expo, Women’s Sexual Health Foundation, … I have all kinds of information, products, services, people, restaurants (you know I have to have food in there somewhere) to tell you about!
All that goin’, doin’, learnin’ confirmed what I have been saying all along. It’s Your Hormones, It’s Your Life, You better Start Livin’ It! If you don’t another year will go by and you’ll be wondering what happened.
Well, I wanted to let you know I soaked up all that learnin’ from all those experiences and I’m going to share it with you so YOU can start livin’, luvin’ and feelin’ GOOD!
I will be offering teleclasses, webinars, a newsletter and of course the blog. So, stay tuned for the dates and I look forward to meeting you.
Livin’, Luvin’, Feelin’ GOOD!
Roz
