**New** Patient-to-Patient Zoom group Webinars

Hooray! Janie A. Bowthorpe, M.Ed. and STTM are now offering two different, 90-minute, interactive Zoom group Webinars to teach you patient-reported experiences and observations pertaining to what can be all-too-common for hypothyroid or Hashi’s patients, no matter the cause: Stressed Adrenals. See Introductory or Advanced, below.

1) INTRODUCTORY STRESSED ADRENALS 101 (Zoom): if you are new to how your adrenals work, or how badly they can be affected by a poor hypothyroid or Hashi’s treatment (such as being on T4-only, being held hostage to the TSH, or going totally by the ridiculous “normal” range), or just want a refresher (Good idea!), this Introductory webinar covers the following:

  • Quick details on our powerhouse adrenals, their relation to a “nut” people eat, plus important hormones (called either steroids or the fancy-dancy term called catecholamines) they release and why — all to help YOU in the face of any stress in the first place!
  • What each of those same adrenal hormones do when you are chronically stressed (including being on nothing but T4 for a percentage) or any life or world stress
  • What are the various symptoms and problems you can experience due to having chronically stressed adrenals?
  • What are those myriad of “causes” for us as hypothyroid or Hashi’s patients in seeing our adrenals get all shook up/messed up, including life stressors which Janie will list? Identify your own causes!
  • Why we should never “guess“ what is going on, and what is the “correct vs incorrect” testing?
  • In fact, what are protocols YOU can do to treat your adrenals better before they get horribly stressed and mess you up (unlike what Janie did NOT do once in a hugely stressful event in her life, and paid a price!) Learn from Janie how to treat your adrenals better, and including when life around you is as stressed as it can be.
  • How to explain all this to your doctors. The more informed you are when you enter the doc’s office, the more respect you may receive.
  • Two live sections between all of us in the webinar–you will also learn from others! One occurs after Janie has explained a lot about YOUR adrenals and will answer your questions, plus another where she will answer your two written questions when you registered/paid.
  • And more. This will provide a base of information to help you launch even further in your understanding of YOUR adrenals. This is a HUGE learning opportunity.

This 101 webinar is slated for every other Tuesday throughout the year. It’s only $45 per person.
2:15 Pacific / 3:15 Mountain / 4:15 Central / 5:15 Eastern

***NOTE that there is a goal for a “minimum number” of registered and paid participants, but the group can go up to 10 total. Know of others who might benefit? Privately ask them if they would like to register, too. https://calendly.com/360-stopthethyroidmadness/introduction-stressed-adrenals-101

2) ADVANCED STRESSED ADRENALS 201 (Zoom): Hi to potential registrants for this very informative, Advanced 201 Webinar. 🙂

By registering, it means you 1) already did a saliva cortisol test 2) plus you have it in hand when you register. Absolutely do not guess you’ll get it in time for the date you register for. I’ve already had one person who did that, but it did NOT get to her in time. Not only are there no refunds, but you ruin the webinar for others since everyone learns from each other when Janie goes over each of the saliva cortisol results in the webinar.

Again, ONLY sign up because you have your results in hand. Not only does each registrant see Janie give a one-on-one about their saliva cortisol results, she will teach you…

  • why saliva cortisol is superior to other methods of testing that she will mention
  • where healthy people fall in saliva testing after observing results for over two decades (she will be using the ZRT tests as an example)
  • the difference between having seriously high or low cortisol, as compared to Addison’s or Cushings (both of the latter are VERY rare)
  • why some people will end up needing to test aldosterone, plus sodium and potassium (if you have done those, send the with the saliva results to Janie)
  • how we treat certain saliva cortisol and aldosterone results
  • why it can be important to have a relationship with a doctor while doing all this
  • why you need to wear a bracelet or necklace explaining your cortisol use
  • all about stress-dosing
  • how and when to correctly wean off cortisol and aldosterone
  • how to avoid problems when weaning
  • post-treatment strategies to protect your adrenals
  • And she will be answering all your questions live.


NOTE: if you have used a different brand other than the recommended ZRT saliva, it will be up to you to transfer what we learned with the ZRT test to your own test.

There will be live exchanges between us all. That is the beauty of webinar attendance, and each webinar is different because of those live exchanges between Janie and all who attend.

  • Know that this is not a college course that covers everything. It’s instead a foundation to help you.
  • This 201 webinar meets every other Tuesday and when you register, you will see upcoming open dates to sign up for. 2:15 Pacific / 3:15 Mountain / 4:15 Central / 5:15 Eastern

***NOTE: for your Advanced webinar to occur, there has to be a minimum of 3-4 registered and paid, but the group can go up to 8. Register and pay here (and REMEMBER: to register, it’s required to have done a saliva cortisol test, and HAVE IT ON HAND:

IMPORTANT TO READ BELOW FOR EITHER INTRODUCTORY or ADVANCED

  1. You need the Zoom app and to understand how to use it. (New to Zoom? Find someone to teach you before the webinar by doing an actual Zoom call)
  2. Payment is via a credit card or PayPal account, either one with your registered name attached to it.
  3. When you register, you will see the opportunity to ask two questions. Keep them simple, as Janie will not have the time to answer otherwise. You will see a third question and it’s required that you answer “I agree” to attend.
  4. DO NOT forget to give your full name and correct email address when you register. Janie will be using that email to send you the invite link on the day of your webinar.
  5. Janie tends to talk fast, and will do her best to cover as much as humanly possible. If time runs out, she’ll summarize. The webinar gives you a foundation, helping you understand better when you dig into the STTM 1 book with the blue gray cover. Order the correct one here soon if you don’t have it.
  6. Payments are nonrefundable — be responsible to remember the date, as well. (But if a rare situation occurs on Janie’s end only that she has a conflict, you will be able to transfer it to the rescheduled event within two weeks time.)

Get ready to be far better informed, as that gives you a heads up in getting the treatment you need! All information is based on over two decades of patient-reported experiences & observations in getting well.

Janie A. Bowthorpe, M.Ed. is a thyroid patient activist, hypothyroid and Hashi’s patient herself, author of STTM related books, and the creator of the patient-to-patient Stop the Thyroid Madness LLC.
