Juicy Q&A: Hormones, Aging, Cravings, Hair Growth, Haters, Weight Loss, Fitness, Babies & More

[@heathercohenchapple9520]

“They are the light in the darkness! We can raise happy healthy adjusted children…to raise them to be the change in the world.” Love your thoughts!!! ❤ Thanks for this video

[@EatMoveRest]

You are so welcome, glad you appreciated it!

[@meghangantt717]

I LOVE that tidbit from your grandpa about raising kids! Thank you for sharing that. I'm 26 and am currently 6mo pregnant with my first, and I'm the first in most of my social circles to be having a baby. The topic of raising kids in today's world is one I hear all the time. What a great nugget of wisdom from your grandpa.

[@jamiewagner7066]

I loved this video so much! I'd love to see another Q&A. The way you answer questions is just so kind and hopeful --- like talking with a good friend. Thank you!

[@EatMoveRest]

Yay! Thank you!

[@PeachesSkinCare]

Love what you said about,”feeling confident in your aging.” The biggest part of feeling good and having great skin, is what you put in your body and on your skin. I teach my clients to feed their skin with antioxidants and don’t be cheap with your products, what you use matters, just like what you eat matters. Also stop the foundation and concealer, having been a Holistic Master esthetician for almost 40 years, I can tell you that the minute I take a client off of foundation and concealer their skin improves dramatically within days and weeks. Aging is a beautiful thing that many people are not given and you need to embrace it instead of constantly wasting every day worrying about it. Your so right!!! With age comes wisdom, security, beauty and there is nothing more beautiful than a woman who is embracing this journey and who is embracing her age and not trying to look 20. I have always loved what you do here, but I most especially loved this! 🙌🏼🍑🧡Lisa

On the aging front-I’d LOVE to see a video talking to the moms about their skincare!!

[@KaylieSamanthaLomax]

❤ the comments about your granpa made my heart smile! This was a huge part of me not rushing into having children but since having my son I feel the same way. You explained that so beautifully I took comfort from that and it reminded me I undoubtedly made the right decision! Thank you ❤

[@EatMoveRest]

I'm so glad!

Im so glad your video popped up in my feed. Im glad to see your family grown, your time answering questions, mostly your authenticity.

[@EatMoveRest]

Thank you so much!

[@heyajoy]

Thanks again for this awesome video. I would LOVE a video on mythbusting what its like to start a family/be a parent/how that changes your identity and life. My husband and I are in the 'we'd like to start trying soon' phase and would love to hear what that journey was like for you both too. Much love!

[@KaylieSamanthaLomax]

🩷 I can't get enough of all the incredible colours in your videos - would LOVE to see another video about embracing all the colours. Your favourite foods, recipes, places, books, clothes, things for the kiddos! 🩵 I would LOVE to see a more in depth self care routine 💛 book recommendations 💚 go to snacks/smoothie recipes and meals for the kiddos 🧡 daily routines video

[@EatMoveRest]

Coming soon! And thank you!

[@laurenhartman2733]

I loooove the end tid-bit. Everything was awesome and insightful, but the last bit about fear, your grandfather's advice, and debating starting a family totally hit with me. It was exactly what I needed to hear today. I have so much gratitude for you ❤ Thank you😊

[@EatMoveRest]

So glad it spoke to you!!!

[@jencarlson3348]

Yes yes! I would love a deep dove into hormones and how they are helped by plant based eating! Thank you for sharing your personal experience! I’ve been wf plant based now for 6 months and I love what it has done for my cycle so far and my weight and energy. I really want to prevent breast cancer, as my mom had it (and survived, praise God!) and I seem very sensitive to flax seeds (they give me cystic painful breasts). So I would be so grateful to hear more on hormones. Thank you for all you do! 💛

[@ReneeBachmann]

I started following you when you had about 1000 followers. Feels like not that long ago. So happy to see your success.

[@EatMoveRest]

Definitely!!

[@amandawoodruff4491]

Love that you take the time to sit and honestly answer questions from all of us. Going to try some some of the products you mentioned, I am already obsessed with OSEA thanks to you 😂 I totally feel you with living far from friends and family, it’s hard. We are in Phoenix and our family is all in Oregon. During the summer especially I feel such a huge urge to move back…but also, really dislike living in a place with so much rain.

[@EatMoveRest]

So glad you appreciated this video! Summer is the time we miss home most too!😩

[@hayleysunnex1208]

So beautiful Erin!! You're so right about it being our joyful responsibility as parents to raise our kids to be a light and to bring great things to the world! Great perspective from your grandpa too, so true! I love your confidence in your faith as a Christian 🥰 it shines through in the way you all live your life together as a family 💕

[@EatMoveRest]

So glad this resonated with you! Thanks for watching!

[@heyajoy]

true! also plant-based and lovers of God

[@KaylieSamanthaLomax]

One of my favourite videos of yours! I took so much away from this right from the start. I'm having some hormonal struggles right now and no longer have my cycle after getting only 2 since my sons birth 22 months ago. I'm gaining so much more weight than I did throughout pregnancy and its affected me in so many ways even though I'm eating much less! Can you believe I have some unopened macca power sitting in my cupboard! I'll be having a nice big green smoothie and macca oats for breakfast! ❤ can't wait to try out the arrow root power for dry shampoo I've quit my standard dry shampoo because I was concerned of the toxins and until now had no clue what to replace it with! ❤ thank you

[@EatMoveRest]

I’m so glad you found this video to be so helpful! Thanks for watching!!

[@juliecruz6010]

Amen - light always prevails ❤

[@krisvaughan1531]

Fun video. Thank you!

[@EatMoveRest]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@laurenteresi2306]

I love what your grandfather said. That’s my biggest fear with my child. This world is incredibly scary and I don’t ever want anything bad to happen to him. However, I want to raise a good kid. Someone who can be the change in this world. I try my best to focus on the happy, more positive aspects of life because that’s what will shape him into the great person I hope he becomes! Thank you for this video and thank you for all that you and your family do!

[@testimonytime5981]

Yes would love a deep dive of foods for hormones, especially for PMS

[@angieharding7386]

Love your video's would love to know more about your exercise regimes and how your fit it in to your morning routine. Also your beauty regime, loved your dry shampoo tip 👍

[@EatMoveRest]

Noted! Thanks for the feedback!🙏☺️

[@ExpressionsbySabrina]

I appreciate your grandpas advice 🥰🖤

[@doradezso]

Thank you so so much for this video Erin. I loved hearing your words and thoughts...thank you❤ I would love to have a video dedicated to hormonal health. I'm 24 years old and I've been struggling for a long time now with my period. Unfortunately I had an extreme iron defficency..but I'm getting better and better every month😊

[@missgreece91]

Yes maca is amazing! It has an earthy flavour so u’ll get used to it even trying 1/4 tsp at a time until you get used to it and then increase it. Do not do it for longterm as it can effect weight gain if you have an issue with weight loss, and it can effect estrogen levels dropping it and elevating it somewhat dramatically

[@bridgette712]

Hormone topic was very interesting, and curious more about how you moved from low calorie (and the resulting effect on your metabolism) to eating more and not fearing gaining weight. Thanks Erin!!

[@franciscachesca]

Your such a good guide 🙏

[@bonnybaldridge7432]

Thank you for this video so many of my questions were answered. Where did you get your throw pillow on your couch? Love the rose one.

Love this video ❤ I want that romper !

[@EatMoveRest]

I linked it in the description!

[@reneepelletier3021]

Thank you for mentioning the importance of healthy fats and maintaining your cycle. I found the same thing to be true for me. When I tried the low fat starch solution style of eating I got too lean and my period went away. :( I’ve since then been adding nut butter to my oats every morning religiously It tastes so good and honestly makes me so happy lol. My period has been regular for 6 months now! Love avocado too - I think I’m around the same age as you and I just don’t think women our age necessarily need to do low fat. Maybe in another season of life! Love this video - Olivia is beautiful, like her mom ;) 💓

[@EatMoveRest]

Awe thanks a bunch for your kind words, and for sharing so openly, Renee! Glad you have found something that works for you, as well!

[@bettyscott5997]

Such a polished and warm approach how you addressed the nay-sayers. As you mentioned, those who may see things differently and share in a meaningful, sincere way..., that is information we can give ear to. Thanks for being transparent about your faith walk. It seems to be the baseline for a lot of other things in our lives. If I could kindly mention regarding Sabbath, no agenda intended, it's been my understanding the solemnity of God's seventh day Sabbath (Saturday) was changed to the first day (Sunday) by religious hierarchy, tho it was not His intended design. I learned this later in life, and it really gave me pause. It's one I had to do some digging into myself. Thanks for listening... I do appreciate all the knowledge you guys pass our way in so many different categories. You can tell it's been well researched. Every new day is a day to try to do it a little bit better. Blessings! (Sorry so long!)

[@bettyglick2679]

Erin this was such an uplifting and informative video! My favorite was your part at the end on how our children are the light in this world and not to live in fear. Love your messages on loving yourself, true health, faith and family. ❤

[@franriccardi8649]

Yes do a deep dive. Want to know what to do for weight gain after been plant based for over 3 years. Any suggestions?

[@SupriyaPathak007]

Hey Erin: love your app and i love that the meals are so toddler and kid friendly as well. We are a plant based family and being a busy mom of 2 I don’t have to think much because the recipes have the protein and veggies that my kids need for a balanced plant based meal. 3 things that resonated with me in your video today: i need to check out osea, quote from your grandpa, outfit you were wearing in the video. Will check it out. I didn’t realise Amazon has natural fibre outfits. Could you pls talk about what’s your approach on homeschooling kids. We moved to Australia from US and now that I have kids that are in similar age group as max and Olivia we’ve decided to homeschool our kids as well. Another thing I wanted to ask: how do you continue to raise vegan kids in a beef and chicken eating community? What if they want to eat meat in the future? I’d love to hear your take on it. Thanks to you both and for all that you’re doing and sharing!

[@hopelambeth1569]

[@mtnlayde01]

Great video ❤❤

[@HealthyHousewife]

What a Beautiful video! Thank you for sharing! I think one of my favorite parts of your video was how you don't just keep God talk to a morning devo or family prayers. You try to implement God into every part of your day. From nature walks,, to trips to the ocean. I think it is so important for kids to see God everywhere and not just to put him in a box, or a book. So easy for even Christian parents to fill the days of their families with so much activity that they forget about God, inadvertently. I love that your family strive to live life from a place of active rest

[@EatMoveRest]

Amen, thanks for watching!

[@maryellenbunce7751]

I absolutely love what you shared about the light outshining the darkness. So much truth packed in this scripture. Pushing past fear and clinging to Jesus we will find the abundant life He promises us. Thank you for sharing your ❤. You both are making a tremendous difference 😊 May God bless you and keep you..His face is shining upon you and through you ❤️

Do you use any bug spray indoors for ants, etc? It’s hard to find a natural solution that works.

Soapy water works. I used lavender dish soap and water and spray it.

Hi would love more information on hormone balance vegan three years cycle cane back at first but now has disappeared again coursing weight gain! Any skin care products I love this too! I know lots of people that make hone schooling work no matter where in the world they are as long as your kids are well socialised and interact with other kids it can work really well!!

Great video.... any recommendation for good shampoo and conditioner? ... I just ordered the hair oil on amazon you recommended.... Thank you!

[@Tspaulding80]

I’m sure it’s in one of your videos, but I would love to see a breakdown of the foods you eat that gets you to 3000 calories per day. I can’t even eat that much eating a non plant-based diet, seems like I would need to spend my entire day doing eating.

[@Abby-sg6jh]

You talk about how you thrive on a low fat plant based diet, but talked about fats for hormones. Where’s the balance in that? Love y’all by the way.

[@EatMoveRest]

Adding more fat doesn’t mean high fat. We aim to be around 60% carbs, and divide the rest between protein and fats…still most definitely thriving on carbs and lower in fat and protein!👌

This was great friend! 👍 love ya girl! You and your family just keep being an inspiration to me and just feel like we have so much in common. You’d be such a beautiful friend to have in real life ❤ 🌸 amen about being a Christian. It’s ok to have a denomination but overall it’s about a relationship with Jesus. Many times it’s the religion that pulls folks away because they hear stories etc. Walk and talk with Jesus daily. See Him in all creation, the ocean 🌊 is a top one where my hubs and I just are in Awe! And mention the same to our boys. Sunsets 🌅 are another. Just wow. Flowers 💐 and plants 🪴 just amazing. Btw your hair is getting longer! 😉 lookin good 👍

[@jamiewagner7066]

I really needed your comment today. I've been feeling a real need to connect with Jesus personally --- not just by going to church. Still trying to navigate what that means to me. I love the idea of just being in awe of creation. That feels like a good place to start. ❤️

[@brookebales2931]

So glad it could bless you! ❤ open your Bible daily, even if only read one sentence. Prayers. Walking and talking with Him no matter where you are. 🙏 and yes, just being reminded each and every beautiful wow thing in nature he created. And even just thanking Him for our sight to be able to see it all! Could start a journal writing down little prayers or fav Bible verses etc. Praying for you sister, Jesus made you so unique and with a beautiful purpose. He is always with us and will never leave nor forsake us. ❤
