Speaker 2: Good afternoon everyone, Jennevieve Wisdom, and thank you for joining
Speaker 2: me on Walk with Wisdom, a lifestyle podcast show on
Speaker 2: youthful aging. Wow, that was a mouthful and I hope
Speaker 2: you're excited to get to know me as I get
Speaker 2: to know you and figure out what is this youthful aging?
Speaker 2: What is Walk with Wisdom? Is that her real name?
Speaker 2: What does she have that we haven't heard before? That's
Speaker 2: going to make me want to join week after week
Speaker 2: to get to know her and change lives. That's the
Speaker 2: real crux of this show is that if we spend
Speaker 2: time together, we go on a walk on youthful aging.
Speaker 2: We get to change lives and get better at every stage.
Speaker 2: So what I thought i'd do today, it's just me
Speaker 2: and you. It's the second level of intro, and I'm
Speaker 2: just going to go a little bit deeper on some
Speaker 2: of the things that make me click and hopefully what
Speaker 2: makes me click makes you click. By the way, I
Speaker 2: just want to thank everyone who sent in questions. I
Speaker 2: love communications. That's the number one thing you'll get to
Speaker 2: know from me is when you give me feedback, it
Speaker 2: really gets me going. And all the things that we've
Speaker 2: talked about and where I am at this age to
Speaker 2: share my wisdom, it really triggers things and that way
Speaker 2: I can give you more of what you want to hear.
Speaker 2: So thank you everyone who sent questions in. What I
Speaker 2: did was put the questions that came in. And by
Speaker 2: the way, I'm going to do this early so you know.
Speaker 2: The best way to get hold of me is Wisdom
Speaker 2: at Walkwithwisdom dot CA. That's my email comes directly to me.
Speaker 2: So that's where I got some questions. I put those
Speaker 2: questions with the questions that the beautiful.
Speaker 3: Meghan used to introduce me.
Speaker 2: And today we're going to just go through exactly what
Speaker 2: the tenets of the show is. And then at the
Speaker 2: end of this show, my hope is that you'll say,
Speaker 2: you know, Genevieve, I would love for you to talk
Speaker 2: more about this in future episodes. I love that because
Speaker 2: I want to make the time that you spend with
Speaker 2: me live valuable and when you listen in later on YouTube, Spotify,
Speaker 2: all the different platforms, I want that time to be
Speaker 2: exceptionally valuable. And the best way I can do that
Speaker 2: is when you communicate with me. So I wanted to
Speaker 2: start with one thing. So it's an intro from last week,
Speaker 2: and now we're going to stack. We talked about words
Speaker 2: last week. I love the word stacking, and it's really
Speaker 2: putting different things one on top of the other to
Speaker 2: get a better result and get a result faster. One
Speaker 2: of the ways in which I use stacking a lot
Speaker 2: is with skin. As we get younger, as we useful
Speaker 2: age or skin changes, and one of the ways to
Speaker 2: make her skin look amazing so that when we look
Speaker 2: in the mirror in the morning. Even though there are changes,
Speaker 2: it's the best virgin version of us after let's say
Speaker 2: forty and so we're going to stack on the questions
Speaker 2: that we asked last week that I thought might be
Speaker 2: great questions to introduce me who I am to you.
Speaker 2: And now I'm going to put the questions you sent me.
Speaker 2: I have some notes, and we're just going to have
Speaker 2: a walk with wisdom for the next forty five minutes
Speaker 2: or so that's remaining in the show. One thing I
Speaker 2: wanted to say from the get go is thank you
Speaker 2: for your time. There are two things that as I've
Speaker 2: gotten younger, that's what I always say over forty and
Speaker 2: over fifty we're getting younger. Is that our most precious
Speaker 2: resources time. A lot of times we focus on money
Speaker 2: being the most precious resource, and absolutely we need money.
Speaker 2: Without it, we can't function in the world that we
Speaker 2: live in. However, that is not the most precious resource,
Speaker 2: because you can always make more money, but for us
Speaker 2: in our individual lives, we can't make more time. So
Speaker 2: I always take time to thank you for your time.
Speaker 2: And whether you're watching me live and especially on the
Speaker 2: live shows, it's the middle of the work. It's one PMPSD. Hi,
Speaker 2: my PSD fans, I have fans already. Thank you for
Speaker 2: your comments.
Speaker 3: I'm loving them.
Speaker 2: Keep them coming on YouTube, that's the one that I'm
Speaker 2: seeing a lot of comments. But you can send your comments,
Speaker 2: of course, anywhere. So it's one PMPSD, four pm SD.
Speaker 2: It's still the middle of your day, whether it be
Speaker 2: it's with family, et cetera, and you're taking time to
Speaker 2: be here with me live.
Speaker 3: I appreciate that. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: And equally if your life is just listen, I understand
Speaker 2: how busy it is and go, Genevieve.
Speaker 3: I wanted to be there, just can't.
Speaker 2: But I'm going to check you out on all the
Speaker 2: other platforms and so again the list is everything that's
Speaker 2: out there that's major, like Spotify and Apple and YouTube
Speaker 2: and LinkedIn. If later on, you know you're with a
Speaker 2: friend or with the family, or just your downtime and
Speaker 2: say let me check out some wisdom later on, thank
Speaker 2: you for your time, your most precious resource. Another thing
Speaker 2: I wanted to talk to you because we're just talking
Speaker 2: here as you get to know me as your host
Speaker 2: before we get deeper into the show. I talked about authenticity.
Speaker 2: So I wanted to pull out a few words that
Speaker 2: was introduced last week and stack them go a little
Speaker 2: bit deeper.
Speaker 3: What does that mean to Jennevie? Even?
Speaker 2: See if it resonates with you? And that's my hope.
Speaker 2: So authenticity. I brought up that I like to be authentic.
Speaker 2: And one of the things and ways of being authentic is,
Speaker 2: for instance, in the podcast world, if you're looking for
Speaker 2: a perfect podcast, I'm sorry, hate to break it to you,
Speaker 2: it's not this one. And here's why life happens. So
Speaker 2: I'm not here to pretend with you and say, oh
Speaker 2: my goodness, everything is just perfect. And when you come
Speaker 2: with me in the one hour, we have this perfect
Speaker 2: little bubble, because that's not life. However, what we will
Speaker 2: do is we will traverse lives with its ups and downs.
Speaker 2: It's imperfections. Whatever life throws us, we get lemons. We
Speaker 2: make spicy lemonade. That's my accent. You guys can guess
Speaker 2: where I'm from. Oh that's not fair. Some of you
Speaker 2: already know, but you know. So we're just going to
Speaker 2: be in our imperfect imperfect perfection. We're going to have
Speaker 2: this show and come for a walk on all these
Speaker 2: different topics in which I have.
Speaker 3: Been very very.
Speaker 2: Just honored that my friends and clients and my new
Speaker 2: friends and new clients have asked me to share my
Speaker 2: wisdom because I have experience and expertise over the years.
Speaker 2: One thing that I love to use get a little
Speaker 2: bit to know me a little bit more.
Speaker 3: I love paper. And when I say I love paper, please.
Speaker 2: All I mean by that is I have my notes
Speaker 2: written down and I have it highlighted, because your time
Speaker 2: is valuable. So it just kind of keeps me in check.
Speaker 2: So if you see me looking down, I have a
Speaker 2: list of notes. I'm actually going to read some of
Speaker 2: the questions and keep going on them with you. So
Speaker 2: I have paper and I love highlighter. Did any of
Speaker 2: you guys do that. I went back to school in
Speaker 2: my late thirties to an undergrad and all these young
Speaker 2: I was twenty years older than the majority of my courts.
Speaker 2: They didn't know that because I useful age, I use
Speaker 2: skincare and nutraceuticals, and we're going to talk about that.
Speaker 2: But what I had was my paper with all my
Speaker 2: notes to organize it and all these color coding highlights,
Speaker 2: and I have it here. That's how you get to
Speaker 2: know me a little bit more authentically, and so let's
Speaker 2: just go into stacking on the questions that was asked
Speaker 2: last week and this week. So here we go. So
Speaker 2: we talked about the name, and I still had some
Speaker 2: questions from people wondering, Jennifeeve, is Wisdom really a last
Speaker 2: name and is it really your last name?
Speaker 3: And yes it is. It's a British heritage.
Speaker 2: Actually, at least that's where my heritage of Wisdom comes from.
Speaker 2: It's British, but I've heard things like it could be
Speaker 2: Scottish as well, so it's from those parts. But remember,
Speaker 2: our world is so diverse and we come from all
Speaker 2: different corners of the earth. Remember I've mentioned that I've
Speaker 2: been to thirty two countries and it's so amazing that
Speaker 2: we're all people and we bring all the different nuances
Speaker 2: to our experience. So Wisdom, the root of my word,
Speaker 2: the real name, not a made up name, is British.
Speaker 2: Some say Scottish, and I just found out I have
Speaker 2: a little bit of Irish.
Speaker 3: We'll talk about that later.
Speaker 2: And the reason why I wanted to do this show again,
Speaker 2: which is what I'm going to go deeper on, is
Speaker 2: just the areas in which I have lived, and when
Speaker 2: I say lived, the areas in which I have experience,
Speaker 2: primarily with different career paths. So I started out fashion modeling.
Speaker 2: I did a little bit of a tidbit an intro
Speaker 2: to that. Then I went into health and I did
Speaker 2: medical imaging called thermography, and that's where I started my
Speaker 2: love for nutraceuticals, which is research vitamins and minerals. And
Speaker 2: then I went into insurance and finance. And so those
Speaker 2: are the three main areas in which we're going to
Speaker 2: really talk about the show and really talk about it
Speaker 2: in reinvention, in a reinventive way when you're forty and over,
Speaker 2: because that is the main generation that I'm reaching with
Speaker 2: this show, and that's why I call it youthful aging.
Speaker 2: It's really for the genre my generation forty and over. However,
Speaker 2: we're going to talk a little bit later about the
Speaker 2: crossover to younger generations. Now, my goodness, I would say
Speaker 2: it's now almost fifty to fifty. The group of people
Speaker 2: that come to me for my wisdom and really care
Speaker 2: about the experience that I have, but also the education
Speaker 2: and how I put it together to help in different areas.
Speaker 2: I have so many younger men and women wanting to
Speaker 2: start youthful aging in their late teens, their twenties, their thirties,
Speaker 2: and guess what they're actually brilliant. That is when you
Speaker 2: can start doing things like things for your hormonal health, cleansing,
Speaker 2: which we're going to talk about all these things that
Speaker 2: you may have heard of.
Speaker 3: And remember we.
Speaker 2: Also mentioned that we're going to talk about things that
Speaker 2: you've heard of, but you may not have heard it
Speaker 2: quite this way. And so, for instance, when we talk
Speaker 2: about cleansing, what is a cleanse? Really do cleanses work?
Speaker 2: And we're talking about cleansing nutritionally? Nutritionally because there are
Speaker 2: many different kinds of cleansing. You can cleanse from a device,
Speaker 2: you know. Now that's a very popular thing with the
Speaker 2: device age is say okay, no phone after seven pm
Speaker 2: this week. That might be something that we want to
Speaker 2: do as a little challenge. By the way, on this show,
Speaker 2: we're going to do many challenges along the wind. When
Speaker 2: I say challenge, it's really a walk. Come along with me.
Speaker 3: I'm doing this a lot of the clients and other
Speaker 3: people that.
Speaker 2: You may not know, but with this amazing platform, I
Speaker 2: get to know so many of you from all over
Speaker 2: the world. You're going through the same wins, things that
Speaker 2: need to change, and we do it together. We go
Speaker 2: for a walk, we do it together, we share or
Speaker 2: wins we share. We need to some help here and
Speaker 2: we do that. So we may have to do some
Speaker 2: kind of a device cleanse. Oh I like that device cleans,
Speaker 2: because we're going to do cleans on hormones. We're going
Speaker 2: to talk about nutraceutical cleans. I'm going to do a
Speaker 2: show that's called Demystify Your Supplements.
Speaker 3: Imagine that.
Speaker 2: Now there are those of you who already know me
Speaker 2: and from life coaching as well, and know that nutraceuticals
Speaker 2: have been a major part of what I've done more recently.
Speaker 2: And what that means is I've helped clients with nutraceutical
Speaker 2: protocols from you know, what can I do for my
Speaker 2: immune system? I see this on YouTube? I see this
Speaker 2: on Google? Does that work? Two more in depth ways
Speaker 2: of helping them with nutraceutical protocols, like helping them alongside,
Speaker 2: of course, with your primary care practitioner. We're just talking here,
Speaker 2: we're going for a walk, so always with your primary
Speaker 2: care practitioner. As a coach, I come in the middle
Speaker 2: and I give you the time to explain why you're
Speaker 2: on certain nutraceuticals, what they do, when you should take
Speaker 2: these certain nutraceuticals, because sometimes your primary care practitioner just
Speaker 2: doesn't have the time. So Genevieve Wisdom Walk with Wisdom.
Speaker 2: I'm primarily a life coach, and I'm here for you
Speaker 2: to walk with me on this coaching journey to learn
Speaker 2: how to do all these different things and we all
Speaker 2: get better doing it. I'm just going to take a
Speaker 2: quick moment to pause. We're gonna hear a word from
Speaker 2: our sponsors, and we'll be right back to go a
Speaker 2: little bit deeper on Walk with Wisdom. Hi, everyone, welcome
Speaker 2: back to Walk with Wisdom. I'm Jenny Wisdom, your host,
Speaker 2: and this is a lifestyle show on youthful aging. Youthful aging,
Speaker 2: you ask, isn't that like anti aging? Let's actually talk
Speaker 2: about that term. It's something that's actually quite endearing to
Speaker 2: me and those that I've shared it with. And you know,
Speaker 2: now that you know me a little bit coming from
Speaker 2: a fashion background, I'll just give you a little bit
Speaker 2: of a visual. So five eight around thirteen, that would
Speaker 2: be me probably one hundred and ten pounds. Well, things
Speaker 2: have changed now that I'm a woman at fifty five,
Speaker 2: Am I still five eight?
Speaker 3: Someone bring the tapement?
Speaker 2: Sure, I'm joking, there's no one else here. But you
Speaker 2: know how we shrink as we get older, and that,
Speaker 2: by the way, is true. And here's why. In our
Speaker 2: spine we have something called well the discs. There's fat
Speaker 2: between the discs. We have sinovial fluid, which is the
Speaker 2: fluid that causes the spine just you know, be able
Speaker 2: to be so flexible. And the things that I used
Speaker 2: to do when I was younger, I could bend and run,
Speaker 2: you can't as you get older. But as though the
Speaker 2: fluid and the discs they kind of harden with age,
Speaker 2: then you shrink. You don't have that buffer in between.
Speaker 2: So that's just a quick and dirty explanation kinesiology one
Speaker 2: O one as to why we get shorter with age. However,
Speaker 2: with nutraceuticals, there are things that you can do to
Speaker 2: actually help to lengthen stretch certain exercises, certain equipment. Exercise
Speaker 2: equipment that I learned of in Europe. Actually when I
Speaker 2: would hang upside down on a recliner and it would
Speaker 2: just really stretch that spine.
Speaker 3: That's really really great.
Speaker 2: But imagine me going and the rest of us, because
Speaker 2: as we youthful age, I know I'm not the only one.
Speaker 3: Can you make a comment.
Speaker 2: If you're not the same as you were at thirteen
Speaker 2: in let's say your forties and fifties, just in how
Speaker 2: your body look and feel, and you know what, that's okay.
Speaker 3: Let me hear you say it. That's okay.
Speaker 2: Now here is what we're going to do on walk
Speaker 2: with wisdom, with youthful aging. We're going to walk with
Speaker 2: me with the experts that I have, the expert guests,
Speaker 2: my expertise, my passion. You can tell that I have passion.
Speaker 2: Whatever I do, I just do it all in. I'm
Speaker 2: all in in doing it. By the way, obviously you
Speaker 2: have probably figured out that English. I love English, I
Speaker 2: speak it very well. But a lot of us now
Speaker 2: where we live in the world were multilingual.
Speaker 3: And so.
Speaker 2: Give me that grace and that authenticity. If sometimes my
Speaker 2: English maybe a little bit backwards, are a little bit
Speaker 2: thumbe tied, it's just because sometimes I'm still translating to
Speaker 2: come across to you. But that's the authentic me. So
Speaker 2: imagine coming from thirteen walking now I'm a woman in
Speaker 2: my mid fifties and we have plans when we're young,
Speaker 2: and I don't think I'm the only one.
Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, I know I'm not the
Speaker 3: only one.
Speaker 2: It's like you're reading my mind in the comments. It's
Speaker 2: that I'm not the only one that if you plan
Speaker 2: to do something, it just doesn't work out that way.
Speaker 3: But you know what, we keep going.
Speaker 2: So one of the tenets of the show is about reinvention,
Speaker 2: it's about perseverance, it's about whatever we thought, let's say
Speaker 2: we would be at twenty five, and I chose twenty
Speaker 2: five because starting with the show meeting my generation, it's
Speaker 2: really for people forty and over. However, as I said,
Speaker 2: I cannot leave out the youth who have come to
Speaker 2: me in their youth, with their youthful wisdom, asking me, Genevieve,
Speaker 2: how do we traverse life and how do we help
Speaker 2: ourselves to have a solid foundation now so we may
Speaker 2: avoid some of the pitfalls, Maybe we may avoid some
Speaker 2: of the life changes to the physical body as much
Speaker 2: as we can by making some changes that you're talking
Speaker 2: about now to your audience of those forty and over.
Speaker 3: And I love that.
Speaker 2: So, as I mentioned, I put some questions together and again,
Speaker 2: thank you guys, for sending me questions. Please do wisdom
Speaker 2: at Walk with Wisdom dot CA.
Speaker 3: That's my email.
Speaker 2: I only give that one out because that one is
Speaker 2: dedicated to the show. So whenever you send a comment
Speaker 2: or a question you might have for me and for
Speaker 2: the show, I might pick the question as we go
Speaker 2: deeper into the show, or I might do what I
Speaker 2: did today, which is put it together with other questions
Speaker 2: like FAQ's and talk about it.
Speaker 3: So please don't hesitate.
Speaker 2: You know the old adage no silly questions, So send
Speaker 2: a question and then of course make your comments. And
Speaker 2: when you look at the different platforms, if you have
Speaker 2: questions after the show isn't live, please go ahead.
Speaker 3: We'll take it up the next time.
Speaker 2: So one of the things that I'm going to talk
Speaker 2: about right now is the power of reinvention. And we
Speaker 2: aren't reinvent at many different stages in life. It's not
Speaker 2: just now that we have to reinvent. The reasons why
Speaker 2: I started Walk with Wisdom again, it's because everyone said
Speaker 2: to me, Genevieve, how do we look good and feel
Speaker 2: amazing as we age? The Looking good is important because
Speaker 2: now that I mentioned again, coming out of a fashion
Speaker 2: modeling background, looking good was about physicality, it was about
Speaker 2: body size, skin beauty. But the good news is I
Speaker 2: have lived long enough to see a lot of those norms,
Speaker 2: societal norms about what looking good means change. It's changed
Speaker 2: along many, many, many lines, from size, body size, height, color, status,
Speaker 2: all the different things that made us look good.
Speaker 3: That has changed.
Speaker 2: And again I'm going to go back to some of
Speaker 2: the tenets of the show, and one major tenant that's
Speaker 2: really close to my heart is making your life extraordinary.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: Another excitement for me and doing this show is we
Speaker 2: look at stars, and trust me, I look at the stars,
Speaker 2: but just being authentic, I'm not a billionaire. Oh wait
Speaker 2: a mom, I am extraordinary and that's okay. And in
Speaker 2: that place, how can we experience useful aging, experience the
Speaker 2: joy of life, look good and feel amazing as we
Speaker 2: age without it costing us things that are just astronomical
Speaker 2: that we may never experience in your life as far
Speaker 2: as financially. And so I have so many things that
Speaker 2: we can do together, so many amazing things to make
Speaker 2: or extraordinary lives even more extraordinary right where we are.
Speaker 2: We're not all called to be stars and be out
Speaker 2: there in everything. I remember I'll tell you a story.
Speaker 2: Remember I talking stories. So there was a janitor. And
Speaker 2: as a matter of fact, my mom was a housekeeper
Speaker 2: nanny for many years, and there was a janitor that
Speaker 2: we met. And this janitor, people, I'm telling you, the
Speaker 2: joy that exuded from.
Speaker 3: This man was just it was catching it. It doesn't
Speaker 3: matter what kind of day you were having.
Speaker 2: You meet him and he'd be cleaning a toilet and singing,
Speaker 2: and you're going, what is going on? And he told me,
Speaker 2: and I was very young at the time, he told
Speaker 2: me that it doesn't matter what you do. You can
Speaker 2: be exceptional. You can change lives, you can be extraordinary.
Speaker 2: People are watching you. So here he was a janitor,
Speaker 2: and he was a janitor at the schools, at the churches,
Speaker 2: at many different places, big office buildings, and he knew
Speaker 2: that people were looking at him, and he spread his
Speaker 2: joy everywhere being a janitor. And so I have loved that.
Speaker 2: And because I came from a family of housekeepers, we
Speaker 2: made sure that whatever we did, we spread joy, and
Speaker 2: we made it in the ordinary ness of life. It
Speaker 2: can be extraordinary. So let's reinvent in or mid life.
Speaker 2: I am going to read a little excerpt because I
Speaker 2: don't think I'll do it justice just talking off the cuff. Now,
Speaker 2: something else you need to know about me, full disclosure, authenticity.
Speaker 3: I'm writing a book. I know what you're saying. I
Speaker 3: saw some of the comments. Thank you, Thank you.
Speaker 2: I don't call names yet, we'll figure that out later,
Speaker 2: but thank you for really going back and forth on
Speaker 2: the comments with me. I am writing a book, and
Speaker 2: I know what you're thinking is everybody has a book.
Speaker 2: And yes, again, something else that I'm so grateful to
Speaker 2: have lived to see change. So people in my generation,
Speaker 2: maybe not you youngins, and I know I have my
Speaker 2: young brothers and sisters, my young youthfulagers out there. What
Speaker 2: we've seen over the decades is we're writing a book.
Speaker 2: You had to just be in the corner and you
Speaker 2: had to go and get a PhD.
Speaker 3: To write a book.
Speaker 2: And now writing a book doesn't take away from those
Speaker 2: people who have that skill because that is not me.
Speaker 2: But you can actually just put your knowledge on paper
Speaker 2: or an audible and people say, yeah, you know what.
Speaker 2: Thank you Gennyvie for your wisdom in this. I am
Speaker 2: going to give you my most precious res of time
Speaker 2: and listen to what you have to say and hopefully
Speaker 2: use some of what you've said, with your knowledge and
Speaker 2: wisdom to change my life.
Speaker 3: So I'm writing a book.
Speaker 2: The book is unhuthful, aging and as a matter of fact,
Speaker 2: I have someone helping me to write.
Speaker 3: We'll talk about that.
Speaker 2: There's going to be a writing show, by the way,
Speaker 2: and as we talk about reinvention, So going back to
Speaker 2: reinvention after forty, not only do we want to look
Speaker 2: good and feel amazing as we age, but it's really
Speaker 2: a time of doing the things we get to do,
Speaker 2: not the things we have to do. I brought that
Speaker 2: up last a week as well, And what that means
Speaker 2: is when we're younger, there are things we have to do,
Speaker 2: especially when we're living with family. We have to finish school,
Speaker 2: finish university, there's a social net, there's a social clock.
Speaker 3: Or we have to get married and have children.
Speaker 2: Because that was our choice, or we have we have
Speaker 2: to go and make money so we can buy a house.
Speaker 2: All these different have tos. When we get to a
Speaker 2: certain age, the kids are grown up, we have our careers,
Speaker 2: we've met all these social milestones. Now we get to
Speaker 2: do things. So after forties actually a phenomenal time to
Speaker 2: start that business you've dreamt about. Revive twenty five, which
Speaker 2: is the name of the skincare that I have that
Speaker 2: it's phenomenal. It's not just about skin, it's not just
Speaker 2: about on the outside.
Speaker 3: And the tagline for this.
Speaker 2: Skincare is beauty from the outside in because we see
Speaker 2: our skin every day. People experience us by what we
Speaker 2: look like. But then we go deeper. So we go
Speaker 2: deeper with taking nutraceuticals to help her skin look amazing,
Speaker 2: along with the cosmoceutical, which is the organic skincare on
Speaker 2: the outside.
Speaker 3: But we go deeper to the heart of the matter.
Speaker 2: The things we've at that we didn't get a chance
Speaker 2: to accomplish, we can do them forty and over. It's
Speaker 2: about reinvention. So we're going to talk about how we
Speaker 2: do that. I'm going to actually do that on our
Speaker 2: next break. I'll read the question. It's an excerpt from
Speaker 2: the book, and we'll go through it step by step,
Speaker 2: and I'll give you some tips on wisdom tips on reinvention.
Speaker 2: I like that, wisdom tips. Put in the comments if
Speaker 2: you like that wisdom tips. I thought i'd give wisdom
Speaker 2: tips at the end of every show, not because I'm
Speaker 2: so wise it's really much wiser people than I. I
Speaker 2: have have crossed my path and they have added their
Speaker 2: wisdom to mine, and I have the immense pleasure and
Speaker 2: gratitude to share my wisdom with you. This is Walk
Speaker 2: with Wisdom. I'm Jennife Wisdom. We're going to just have
Speaker 2: a brief break for sponsors and we'll be right back.
Speaker 3: Hi.
Speaker 2: Everyone, I'm Jennie Wisdom, host of Walk with Wisdom, your
Speaker 2: lifestyle show on Youthful Aging. Now, thank you for coming back.
Speaker 2: We're going to talk about reinvention and reinvention in every way.
Speaker 2: Don't quit ever ever. I want to hear you say it.
Speaker 2: I won't quit ever, don't quitever. There is going to
Speaker 2: be a show where we'll tell stories, because every life
Speaker 2: is a story. And as you know, Genevieve Wisdom, one
Speaker 2: of my tenets that I've learned, and I've learned it
Speaker 2: from some really amazing teachers, business teachers, is to talk
Speaker 2: in stories because it gives us a visual, it gives
Speaker 2: us that emotion. But that was me anyway, so it
Speaker 2: really makes sense. So we're going to have a story
Speaker 2: time episode and where I would love to have some
Speaker 2: of you who have been watching the show from the
Speaker 2: beginning potentially, So keep on watching, send in your story
Speaker 2: and maybe we could share your life story and then
Speaker 2: we can tie it.
Speaker 3: Into a reinvention reinvention show.
Speaker 2: So again, let me just tell you the best way
Speaker 2: to get a hold of me, which is Wisdom at
Speaker 2: Walk with Wisdom dot Ca. However, the Bowl brief platform
Speaker 2: is also an exceptional place for you to go, like
Speaker 2: the show, follow the show, all that stuff that we
Speaker 2: have to do nowadays, just so that we can have
Speaker 2: this talk, have this talk.
Speaker 3: In an authentic way. Before we talk about reinvention. Let's
Speaker 3: talk about authenticity. So I'm talking about youthful aging.
Speaker 2: And you're probably looking at my face and going, she
Speaker 2: don't got no makeup on. I don't, I don't, I
Speaker 2: have never, and I know it's so odd. My friends
Speaker 2: don't get it, and family they go, we don't get it.
Speaker 2: I I can't do hair and I can't do makeup.
Speaker 2: And so for my hair, when you see me, I
Speaker 2: clip it on. It takes me about thirty second. If
Speaker 2: I don't take about a couple minutes or less to
Speaker 2: get ready. It's too much for me, and especially at
Speaker 2: this age when we're going to talk about different things.
Speaker 2: That happen to women and men as we get older,
Speaker 2: a major life change. I just need to get going,
Speaker 2: and so I clip on the hair. I have the
Speaker 2: revived twenty five skincare. I may put a little bit
Speaker 2: of lipstick on, but I don't think I did that today.
Speaker 2: And I'm here, I'm authentic, I'm here with you.
Speaker 3: It's life. It's real life. If you don't need to
Speaker 3: put on tons of.
Speaker 2: Makeup and dress up, but you want to put your
Speaker 2: best face forward, you can, and that's what I'm here
Speaker 2: to tell you.
Speaker 3: So walk with wisdom in these areas reinvention.
Speaker 2: Let me read an excerpt from the book, and we're
Speaker 2: going to talk a little bit about reinvention. And see
Speaker 2: I have to put my specs on. I'll put the
Speaker 2: paper down. So we talked about this last year, and
Speaker 2: it's an excerpt. Midlife isn't a pause. It's a powerful reinvention.
Speaker 2: So walk with with wisdom. We throw out outdated ideas
Speaker 2: about aging and we replace them with vitality, confidence and transformation.
Speaker 2: So of course I have spent twenty five years helping
Speaker 2: people take in throll of their health, beauty and mindset.
Speaker 2: This isn't just a podcast it's a movement, a community, and.
Speaker 3: A guide to your next level.
Speaker 2: Then it talks about me being a life coach a
Speaker 2: little bit, which is important for you to know when
Speaker 2: you're trying to decide what to do with your valuable time. Well,
Speaker 2: why would I even tune into Walk with Wisdom. We
Speaker 2: talk about this and then what happens to Well, I'm
Speaker 2: a life coach. You can send me a question, we
Speaker 2: can have a complimentary session if there's something that you're
Speaker 2: working through and you go, I need a coach.
Speaker 3: And by the way, we all need a coach.
Speaker 2: We all need a coach, and there are many, many
Speaker 2: different coaches. And we'll talk about life coaching a little
Speaker 2: bit later. That's going to be one of the segments
Speaker 2: and what that really means and what I bring. And
Speaker 2: that's why I loved life coaching versus some of the
Speaker 2: more structured.
Speaker 3: Places. Now sometimes we need a psychologist.
Speaker 2: Or a psychotherapist, and they're all places in our lives
Speaker 2: for all these things. But for me, I like being
Speaker 2: a coach. I come alongside you and I walk with you. Hey,
Speaker 2: I just thought of that Walk with Wisdom totally me.
Speaker 2: So as a life coach, I know the power of relatability.
Speaker 2: Relatability helps us to reinvent any part of our lives
Speaker 2: where we need change, and that is going to set
Speaker 2: me up for the reinvention part of this podcast. So,
Speaker 2: because midlife isn't the end, it's a beginning, I wanted
Speaker 2: to talk about real life midlife things that are going on.
Speaker 3: Thank you for your comment. I just saw one of
Speaker 3: my valued viewers talk.
Speaker 2: About mid life changes and then I had one of
Speaker 2: the young and say, tell me how to avoid some
Speaker 2: of the things they know that I'm going to talk about.
Speaker 2: So one of the mid life changes that happens especially
Speaker 2: for us girls, well let me rephrase that it happens
Speaker 2: to all of us, but it's very obvious and overt
Speaker 2: for women, and it's menopause. And guess what, Okay, I
Speaker 2: have to put down my stack of papers. So I've
Speaker 2: been actually struggling with it authenticity, full disclosure, and it
Speaker 2: has been a challenge and I love challenges. So I thought,
Speaker 2: if this challenge shows up in my life, I didn't
Speaker 2: plan for it. So that's all about the walk with
Speaker 2: Wisdom journey for your life. You didn't plan for a challenge,
Speaker 2: but it shows up in your life and you go Okay,
Speaker 2: Now I have a choice. Am I going to let
Speaker 2: this challenge take me out? Am I going to figure
Speaker 2: out a way to overcome this challenge? And I prefer
Speaker 2: the latter. And I hope all my valued friends and
Speaker 2: family and new friends, new family, all our listeners, and
Speaker 2: all the different platforms, whether it be on Spotify or
Speaker 2: LinkedIn or you know, YouTube, all the different platforms. I
Speaker 2: hope that you come alongside me with whatever challenge it is,
Speaker 2: and let's see if we can walk through it together.
Speaker 2: And notice a word that I said, that's very important
Speaker 2: you walk through a challenge. So you start here, it's
Speaker 2: just like, oh my word, it's a giant mountain. I
Speaker 2: can't go up it because I don't mountain climb. I
Speaker 2: can't go through it because obvious reasons, can't go around it.
Speaker 3: What do I do? Well, let's walk.
Speaker 2: Let's do a walk in figuring out the things that
Speaker 2: we can do, one step at a time to overcome challenges.
Speaker 2: So when it comes to midlife, I thought, who am
Speaker 2: I kidding? And those of you who know me are
Speaker 2: going Genevieve to give us your wisdom on menopause. And
Speaker 2: then I started to see menopause everywhere I have, I believe,
Speaker 2: some new ways of thinking about menopause, some new ways
Speaker 2: of dealing with menopause, some ways that you may have heard,
Speaker 2: but you didn't quite hear it like that before. So
Speaker 2: the first show is really going to be talking about menopause.
Speaker 2: And here's what it looks like. There's the symptom, I'm
Speaker 2: having a hot flash right now. I have great skin,
Speaker 2: I know, but when it looks like it's a little oily, now,
Speaker 2: you know, I don't want makeup.
Speaker 3: But it's because of the hot flash.
Speaker 2: And so with the symptoms like the hot flashes and
Speaker 2: the sleeplessness and the hair loss and the mood changes
Speaker 2: and the weight gain and all these different things, we're
Speaker 2: going to talk about those. However, those are symptoms, but
Speaker 2: we have to talk about what is foundational that causes
Speaker 2: those symptoms for a woman in menopause. Things like are
Speaker 2: you going to the bathroom? I know we're going to
Speaker 2: talk about poop and menopause. What Okay, this girl is
Speaker 2: off her rock right, I know what you're thinking.
Speaker 3: Thank you for the comments. Yes, no I'm not. But
Speaker 3: here's why. I'll tell you a story.
Speaker 2: I have had a incredible mentors in my life.
Speaker 3: I couldn't name the amount of people that have spent time.
Speaker 2: Delineating their wisdom, which now allows me to be so
Speaker 2: full of this knowledge and be able to give it
Speaker 2: back to you. Because in life we should be a river,
Speaker 2: not a reservoir. Things should pass through us.
Speaker 3: We shouldn't be.
Speaker 2: Hoarding it all the good stuff, not at all. And
Speaker 2: if we have some bad stuff, we need to let
Speaker 2: that go too. That's going to be another show. But
Speaker 2: I've had some incredible mentors mentor me and tell me
Speaker 2: about life, and we're specifically talking about the health aspect
Speaker 2: in menopause. And one of the things was this pharmacist.
Speaker 2: He was an integrated pharmacist and he.
Speaker 3: Said, Genevieve, you have a lot of women that.
Speaker 2: You're dealing with when I was doing thermography, and he said,
Speaker 2: everybody can get this, including you.
Speaker 3: Girls.
Speaker 2: You have a car, you have to work the car
Speaker 2: before you polish it. Going to the bathroom is washing
Speaker 2: the car before you polish it. So and guys don't experience.
Speaker 3: This like we do. Sorry, boys, we know.
Speaker 2: From our fathers to brothers, to our husbands to all
Speaker 2: of that, we know they don't experience this like we do.
Speaker 2: But girls often we struggle with constipation and different things.
Speaker 2: And so when it comes to menopause, you may not
Speaker 2: have heard, and you may have, and we'll go into
Speaker 2: it a little bit deeper. How to keep your colon clean,
Speaker 2: because if your colon is clean, then of course.
Speaker 3: You're excreting all the waste. There's not as much stress.
Speaker 2: On the liver, so we want to make sure we
Speaker 2: keep the liver strong when it.
Speaker 3: Comes to menopause.
Speaker 2: That's probably something that hasn't been a link, like a
Speaker 2: light bulb link. When it comes to menopause, you're having
Speaker 2: all these hot flashes and then you don't think, oh
Speaker 2: my colon, I've got to be going to the bathroom,
Speaker 2: Oh my liver, I've got to make sure that's clean,
Speaker 2: take the fat out of the liver.
Speaker 3: So that's how the shows.
Speaker 2: And Walk with Wisdom will be things you've heard of,
Speaker 2: but there'll be a little twist.
Speaker 3: You may not have heard of.
Speaker 2: It quite like that before, or you may have heard
Speaker 2: of it, but you may not have heard of a
Speaker 2: specific product or a specific way to do it, or
Speaker 2: a specific way to think about it, because a lot
Speaker 2: of it has to do with mindset change. So we
Speaker 2: are definitely going to talk about menopause, and of course
Speaker 2: what we all think about is the hormone change. Now
Speaker 2: remember this is a talk show, so you have your
Speaker 2: a primary care practitioner and that's who you listen to,
Speaker 2: and we come here and we talk it out. So
Speaker 2: we all hear about hormones, and it's so confusing. I
Speaker 2: did a tiny bit of endochronology, and when I say
Speaker 2: a tiny bit, I'm not an endochronology. However, there is
Speaker 2: a hormonal cascade that happens, and it happens in menopause,
Speaker 2: and what it means is of course for women. By
Speaker 2: the way, did you know that a lot of people
Speaker 2: don't know what menopause means? And I haven't told you yet,
Speaker 2: have I? I don't think I have. Let me know
Speaker 2: the chat if I had, but I haven't told you
Speaker 2: that exactly where I'm from, I've given ins. You can
Speaker 2: probably pick up the accent, but I haven't come out
Speaker 2: and told you yet, because that's for a show on
Speaker 2: its own. But we're very funny people in my culture,
Speaker 2: and I am multicultural. I have many, many, many different
Speaker 2: blood blood through in my veins, and I have had
Speaker 2: the blessing and the gift of being in a multicultural
Speaker 2: society my entire life, and so a lot of people
Speaker 2: that I call family look nothing like me on the outside,
Speaker 2: but we're so family on the inside.
Speaker 3: By the way, that's what I'm hoping with you.
Speaker 2: I have that gift in that knack, and that's what
Speaker 2: I'm hoping with my wisdom.
Speaker 3: We'll get there.
Speaker 2: And so back to menopause, back to the hormonal cascade.
Speaker 2: You may have a menopause actually means mensis cessation, the
Speaker 2: cessation of mensis, hence menopause. In my culture, they call
Speaker 2: it women a pause. They're going, why should it be
Speaker 2: called menopause? Should be called women a pause? That's funny,
Speaker 2: that's a joke. We get to laugh here, which is awesome.
Speaker 2: So everyone, that's a good note to take another quick
Speaker 2: break on. We'll talk about menopause, the hormonal cascade. That's
Speaker 2: going to be really deep the next show, and I
Speaker 2: will have a guest. I will have an amazing guest
Speaker 2: and expert will take a break to hear from more
Speaker 2: valued sponsors.
Speaker 3: Right now. Hi, everyone, I'm Genevieve.
Speaker 2: Wisdom, host of Walk with Wisdom, lifestyle show and Youthful Aging.
Speaker 2: Thank you for coming back now in this segment, it's
Speaker 2: going to be or Wisdom Tips segment and what that means.
Speaker 2: It's a little bit shorter, and so I kind of
Speaker 2: do a little bit of a wrap up of what
Speaker 2: we've talked about in this show.
Speaker 3: So what was it that we talked about?
Speaker 2: We talked about who I am in general, because every
Speaker 2: life has a story, and the stories are insurmountable. In
Speaker 2: the few moments we have here, which are so special,
Speaker 2: I just want you to get the big picture to
Speaker 2: decide why would I walk with Wisdom weekly?
Speaker 3: What does this woman with.
Speaker 2: A unique class name have to delineate wisdom in my life?
Speaker 2: And so we talked to about my talking about useful
Speaker 2: aging and all the different things that affects that, like
Speaker 2: your skin, but going from your skin to within, so
Speaker 2: nutraceuticals so looking good and feeling amazing as we age,
Speaker 2: and nutraceuticals being researched. Vitamins and minerals they actually make
Speaker 2: a change in the body when you take it. And
Speaker 2: so if you're using, for instance, a res viatrol toner
Speaker 2: which I have in Revive twenty five, and you take
Speaker 2: resveratrol inside, which is an antioxidant, it decreases inflammation and
Speaker 2: I know you've all heard about inflammation. Well, inflammation shows
Speaker 2: up on the skin in wrinkles, it shows up in
Speaker 2: her joint in pain. And that's one way of stacking things.
Speaker 2: We talked about stacking. So stacking is putting things one
Speaker 2: on top of the other so you have a better result.
Speaker 2: I gave you an example just now of stacking skincare
Speaker 2: res vitral outside, reserve retral inside, help the skin on
Speaker 2: the outside, help the joints on the inside. Then we
Speaker 2: came full circle to talk about my wanting to be
Speaker 2: really authentic at this age.
Speaker 3: And you know, you know.
Speaker 2: You're getting younger wink wink when you start to talk
Speaker 2: about at this age, at this age, I heard my
Speaker 2: older brothers and sisters say that, you know, you just
Speaker 2: tell it as it is.
Speaker 3: And I'm there, I just tell it as it is. Now.
Speaker 3: It doesn't mean that I force my opinion on you.
Speaker 2: I just hope that with my experience, my education putting
Speaker 2: it together. And for those of you have said to me, Genevieve,
Speaker 2: you have done so many things, You've travelsed so many things.
Speaker 2: We want to hear you wisdom on it. Thank you
Speaker 2: for pushing me to do this show and I owe
Speaker 2: I get a host of people who want to hear
Speaker 2: that wisdom as well. The show is going to start
Speaker 2: with menopause wisdom, and so I introduced menopause a little
Speaker 2: bit on the last segment, mentioning that we have to
Speaker 2: think about it whole so in ways you may not
Speaker 2: have thought about it, like what does menopause have to
Speaker 2: do with me going to the bathroom? And I mean
Speaker 2: number two, what does menopause have to do with my liver?
Speaker 2: Just ways that you may not have thought about it.
Speaker 2: We're gonna not only think about it here, We're going
Speaker 2: to go for a walk, a journey. We're going to
Speaker 2: have an explanation of it. I'm going to have excellent
Speaker 2: experts in that area. However, keep it in mind that
Speaker 2: I have over twenty five years of being in integrated medicine,
Speaker 2: so I also have excellent expertise. However, how I can
Speaker 2: support you my valued audience is as a life coach
Speaker 2: and coaching you through it. So you may go to
Speaker 2: your doctor, your nature path, they give you things and
Speaker 2: you go, oh my gosh, I'm overwhelmed.
Speaker 3: What do I do? Ask Wisdom for her wisdom.
Speaker 2: And the last thing that I wanted to mention to
Speaker 2: you about the coming up show in wisdom tips is
Speaker 2: how do you prepare for the next show. So, if
Speaker 2: you're a male or you have a male in your life,
Speaker 2: men go through it too. It's called menopause. Yeah, a
Speaker 2: little play on words. And usually menopause happens about a
Speaker 2: decade after it happens with women's and women and that
Speaker 2: is when there is cessation of mensis. So we're not
Speaker 2: talking about the Perry stage. So there's a stage ten
Speaker 2: to fifteen years before the thing actually happens, that the
Speaker 2: thing starts planning to happen. I'm telling you we're gonna
Speaker 2: have a nice walk with hormones and menopause and manopause
Speaker 2: and perimenopause and menopause and all those different things. So tips,
Speaker 2: just look at your life right now so we can
Speaker 2: go on a walk. How is your colon health? Do
Speaker 2: you know what a colonic is? What do you take
Speaker 2: for your colon? When I was modeling us girls would
Speaker 2: never mention it?
Speaker 3: Are you kidding me?
Speaker 2: We would rather explode than So how is your colon health?
Speaker 2: Very important for this stage of life, but starting in
Speaker 2: your youth, think about it.
Speaker 3: If you pile.
Speaker 2: Up all of that for decades. Then you have a
Speaker 2: much more difficult situation on this side. So how's your colon?
Speaker 2: Think about your colon. When we come back, we'll talk
Speaker 2: about colon, and then if you're good with that, think
Speaker 2: about your liver.
Speaker 3: There's a huge term.
Speaker 2: That's going around that we will have a liver segment
Speaker 2: and it's called any FLD non alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Speaker 2: That means that your liver has fat in it. And
Speaker 2: here's what happens. When the liver has fat in the cells,
Speaker 2: it doesn't function how it should. Here's why the liver
Speaker 2: is so important to menopause, menopause, perry, absolutely everything, brain health.
Speaker 3: You name it. The liver does five hundred plus jobs.
Speaker 2: Again, I had an incredible mentor a naturopathic doctor here
Speaker 2: but really universally acclaimed, and he wrote some books about
Speaker 2: the liver. So over five hundred jobs, but two of
Speaker 2: the main ones because time and money.
Speaker 3: We don't have time, and really I wouldn't.
Speaker 2: Send you on a on am. So there's my English
Speaker 2: on a chasing as to what should we buy to
Speaker 2: help this NONO non alcoholic fatty liver disease. So we're
Speaker 2: going to focus on only two out of the five
Speaker 2: hundred deal. And two of the things is it breaks
Speaker 2: down our hormones and it breaks.
Speaker 3: Down our food. So of course when.
Speaker 2: We're in menopause, menopause we get the menobelly, we get
Speaker 2: that manobelly.
Speaker 3: A lot of fat accumulates.
Speaker 2: But if we take the fat out, whether or not
Speaker 2: it's non alcoholic fatty liver disease, it's not because we've
Speaker 2: been down at the pub.
Speaker 3: It's just something that happens.
Speaker 2: And did you know that babies can be born with
Speaker 2: NAFLD non alcoholic faty liver disease.
Speaker 3: So come back for a Walk with Wisdom.
Speaker 2: We have a great show coming out next week and
Speaker 2: it's probably going to be more than one week because
Speaker 2: that's the great thing about going for a walk.
Speaker 3: We don't rush it.
Speaker 2: We take the time that we need because it's time
Speaker 2: well spend. Thank you for your time today. I appreciate
