We caught up with the brilliant and insightful YaShaun Ball a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi YaShaun, thanks for joining us today. We’d love to hear about how you went about setting up your own practice and if you have any advice for professionals who might be considering starting their own?
My journey into women’s health started long before I founded my own practice. I began during the pandemic, when everything slowed down and I finally decided to take control of my own health.
For years, I suffered from severe menstrual cycles, hormonal imbalance, and recurring inflammation that no one seemed to connect. I went from general doctors to specialists, and it wasn’t until I began working with a team of women doctors that I realized how deeply my health was tied to my womb although it was a range of allergies, gut health, even my mood and energy it was all related and rverything circled back to womb care.
After having two children and trying nearly every birth control available, I felt frustrated and unseen. But through those specialists and learning directly from the pharmacy and clinical teams I became fascinated with how the body communicates. I’d already been practicing cultural and holistic care for years, having gone vegan at 19 and working with herbal and lifestyle healing, but during the pandemic I wanted more formal knowledge. I enrolled in school for nutrition, where I began coaching others on healthy living, blood type eating, and hormone balance.
For a while, I thought nutrition was my ultimate path. But the deeper I went, the more I realized something was missing. I was attempting to helping women “fix” symptoms, but I wasn’t reaching the source. I wasn’t a doctor but I knew I could educate women to advocate for themselves in a way most weren’t taught to. That’s when my true calling emerged: to bridge the gap between clinical, holistic, and wellness education.
That realization led to the creation of YaShaun Inspires LLC, built around my Body-Conscious Symptom-Based Healing Regimen™ a method that helps women understand their bodies, track their symptoms, and communicate clearly with their providers. Through this work, I began offering Yoni steams, underarm detox, at-home Yoni steam kits, and nutritional guidance, all centered around womb health and symptom awareness.
The biggest challenge was learning how to grow something bigger than myself. I started out trying to help one woman at a time, but soon realized that true change happens through collaboration and education. That inspired me to begin developing Her Tubes Institute™, an educational branch under YaShaun Inspires LLC dedicated to training and certifying the first generation of womb-centered practitioners, coaches, and clinicians.
If I could do it over, I would build a support system sooner because entrepreneurship and healing both demand community. My advice to anyone starting their own practice is simple:
• Let your personal story guide your purpose.
• Don’t wait to be perfect — start where you are, learn publicly, and refine as you grow.
• And always remember — impact comes from education, not imitation.
What began as a personal journey to heal my own womb has now evolved into a movement to empower others to teach, to advocate, and to redefine what women’s health care can be.
YaShaun, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
My name is YaShaun Ball, founder of YaShaun Inspires LLC and creator of the Body-Conscious Symptom-Based Healing Regimen™, a trauma-informed approach that helps women and womb-bearers reconnect with their bodies, understand their symptoms, and restore balance from the inside out.
My journey began long before I became board-certified. After years of navigating chronic pain, hormonal imbalance, and being dismissed in traditional medical spaces, I turned to holistic healing and nutrition to reclaim my health. What began as personal healing grew into professional purpose. I trained in nutrition, herbal support, hormonal and performance, and Yoni steaming, eventually earning recognition as a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBHWC) and Board-Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (AADP).
I offer one-on-one coaching for body-conscious symptoms-based healing and practitioner services for holistic approaches including Yoni Steam, underarm detox, and at-home Yoni Steam kits. I’ve helped clients regulate menstrual cycles and cycle sync to reduce inflammation, and reconnect with their body’s natural rhythms. Over time, I realized the same gaps that left me searching for answers also existed among practitioners: most were educated in either clinical, holistic, or wellness care—but rarely all three. I was blessed to have some basic fundamentals.
That realization inspired my next chapter: the development of Her Tubes Institute™, an educational branch under YaShaun Inspires LLC dedicated to training and certifying the next generation of womb-centered practitioners, coaches, and clinicians. The Institute bridges the gap between holistic wisdom and clinical understanding through a body-conscious, client-led, symptom-based model.
We are currently raising funding to establish Her Tubes Institute™ as its own accredited entity and inviting students, aspiring coaches, and health professionals to join our waiting list for future programs. In addition, we’re forming a Board Association for Women’s Health, focused specifically on advancing womb care advocacy and professional education.
What sets my work apart is that it doesn’t just teach wellness it translates it. I help clients and practitioners learn to interpret their bodies’ signals, communicate effectively with providers, and integrate lifestyle, nutritional, and emotional awareness into everyday life.
What I’m most proud of is how this work continues to evolve from personal healing to professional education, from one-on-one care to community empowerment. My mission is to keep building bridges between science and spirit, care and comprehension so women everywhere have the knowledge, confidence, and support to truly thrive.
Putting training and knowledge aside, what else do you think really matters in terms of succeeding in your field?
When I started helping clients, I believed the key to success was expanding my knowledge especially around nutrition, hormones, and client resources. I assumed that by applying what I knew, I’d automatically learn how to better support each person. But the deeper I got into client care, the more I realized success for me with women’s health depends on something far more fundamental than information: understanding human expression.
I began to see patterns in women struggling not because they may lacked discipline or access, but because they didn’t have the language to truly describe what they were experiencing. Many could tell me they “felt hot” but not the difference between their temperature rising or if it was a burning sensation.” That gap in communication revealed something much larger: most clients were never taught to interpret or express their body’s signals.
Knowledge can be taught. But creating space for clients to slow down, reflect, and practice awareness is where transformation meets inspiration. I realized I was able to advocate for myself with doctors once I spoke in what I now call “Body Conscious Language,” translating feelings into measurable and observable information.
That insight changed everything for me. I shifted my focus from simply fixing said problem to translating clients identify symptoms, track patterns, and understand how their body communicates. This became the foundation for what I now call the Body-Conscious Symptom-Based Model, a method that helps clients reconnect with their bodies, communicate effectively with providers, and take ownership of their health.
What truly drives success for client care isn’t just knowledge. Curiosity, empathy, and the courage to listen deeply to spot the patterns and express with confidence created true advocacy that no textbook can teach.
How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?
My biggest pivot came when I realized that helping clients one-on-one wasn’t enough to make the impact I wanted. I started out thinking I’d learn the most by supporting individual clients by listening to their symptoms, guiding them through holistic and nutritional care, and applying everything I knew about women’s health. But the more I collaborated with other professionals, the clearer it became that the real gap wasn’t just with clients it was within the field itself.
I noticed that many professionals were highly skilled in either clinical, wellness, or holistic approaches but rarely all three. This fragmentation created confusion for clients and limited how deeply practitioners could truly support women’s health. Even I once assumed “wellness” and “holistic” meant the same thing, until I realized wellness often focuses on lifestyle habits, while holistic work connects the mind, body, and emotional systems in a much deeper way.
That understanding changed my path. I began using my Office Hours as an open space for both clients and professionals to ask questions, learn from real cases, and bridge these worlds together. But I soon realized education needed a larger structure. So I decided to build a team of medical and holistic professionals to develop a comprehensive curriculum that trains aspiring coaches and established practitioners in fundamental women’s health clinically grounded, holistically informed, and practically applicable.
This pivot wasn’t about stepping back from clients; it was about expanding the reach of care. By educating others, I can help thousands of women indirectly through the hands of trained, confident, and conscious professionals. That’s the true mission to build an ecosystem where more coaches and practitioners can fill the gap and transform women’s health from the inside out.
I’m proud to share that we are now accepting students, aspiring coaches, practitioners, and clinical professionals to join the waiting list for The Her Tubes Institute.
Our programs are designed to bridge the gap between clinical, wellness, and holistic education, providing a unified foundation in women’s health and womb care advocacy. In addition, we are welcoming pre-established programs and members into our Board Association for Women’s Health, a collaborative network dedicated to advancing womb-centered care and professional standards.
This next chapter marks a major milestone in creating a global ecosystem where education, advocacy, and women’s wellness meet empowering professionals to lead with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
