Some weeks you feel sharp, motivated, and on top of everything, and other weeks you feel exhausted, anxious, foggy, or completely wiped out. That is not random. That is hormones.

2025/12/15

In this episode of the Female Health Solution Podcast, I break down one of the biggest frustrations women face: Your labs come back "normal," yet you still feel exhausted, inflamed, moody, or nothing like yourself, and no one can explain why. Here's what we cover: Why basic blood work misses the real problem Regular labs look for disease, not dysfunction. A standard CBC or hormone panel can't show how your hormones are produced, processed, or eliminated. Blood tests catch crises, not the early

761. How to Protect Your Hormones During the Holidays

The Female Health Solution Podcast ·

2025/12/08

Your hormones are not separate from your life. They're responding to it. And nothing reveals that more clearly than the holiday season. Every year, women take on more—more planning, more emotional labor, more mental load, more pressure to make everything magical. And we tell ourselves it's "just busy," but physiologically, there's so much more happening beneath the surface. When your schedule gets unpredictable, your meals get irregular, or your sleep gets pushed aside, your cortisol rises. When

2025/12/01

Today is a little different...I'm pulling back the curtain on what's really happening inside your body during this stage of life—and what most women are never told. If you're in your 40s (or even your late 30s) and you've wondered, "Is this perimenopause… or is something actually wrong with me?" this conversation is for you. As I've moved into my forties myself, and having worked with hundreds of women in this phase, I've become even more aware of how much confusion and noise surrounds this

If you've ever walked into an appointment desperate for answers and walked out with a pat on the head, a prescription you didn't ask for, or a suggestion that you're "just stressed"… this episode is for you. I'm sharing the story of the first time I was brushed off — right after my first baby, when exhaustion hit me so hard I couldn't carry a car seat 30 feet without my arms shaking. The doctor wrote it off as "normal for new moms." It wasn't. It was postpartum thyroiditis — something that only got

Let's break down why so many women feel drained even when they're following a healthy lifestyle. The truth is, if your body is functioning in a state of dysfunction, surface-level changes aren't enough. I explain how stress, life events, and hormone imbalances quietly build up over time until your system hits a tipping point—what I call the "overflowing bucket effect." If you've ever been told your labs are "normal" but you still feel far from normal, you'll understand exactly why that happens and

Today I'm talking about how to create a real safe space so your brain and body can downshift, regulate, and actually recover—especially when the world feels loud and chaotic. Even if you've been eating well, taking your supplements, moving your body, and still feel dysregulated, this might be the missing layer: your environment and boundaries. Why this matters We're processing more inputs than our nervous systems evolved for—constant news, social feeds, and everyone else's emotions at work and at

Have you experienced this? You go into the doctor, you’re tired, foggy, dragging through your day, your hair’s falling out, your energy is gone, and your provider says, “Everything looks fine.” But you know something isn’t right. We’re talking about the huge difference between normal labs and functional labs. Because “normal” just means you’re not sick enough yet to trigger a red flag. Functional medicine looks at how your body is actually operating — where you might already be in a state of

2025/10/13

I wanted to share something different today — something that’s been coming up a lot in my conversations with women lately and honestly, in my own life too. It’s this idea that we’re waiting for someone to come save us. Waiting for the magic fix, the person, the event, the miracle that changes everything. But the truth is — no one’s coming. The person who saves you is you. For so long, I didn’t talk about the hard parts of my story — the trauma, the abuse, the pain — because I didn’t want that to be

You’re not alone, and in this episode, I’m breaking down exactly why that happens and what to do about it. We often think that if we’re checking all the “healthy” boxes—organic foods, 8 hours of sleep, daily movement—then we should feel good.

In this episode, I’m opening up about my own journey with PCOS, multiple autoimmune conditions, and how functional testing—especially the DUTCH test—has changed everything for me and the women I work with. For years, I pushed through health challenges: PCOS, Hashimoto’s, celiac, even mysterious skin flares from annuloma granulare.

This episode might sound a little fiery because, honestly, I am fired up. I cannot tell you how many times I hear stories of women going through procedures, even surgeries, for hormone-related issues—and not a single hormone test has ever been run. That is bananas. Truly bananas. Today, I’m walking you through the story of a client I’ll call Kathy. She’s in her early 30s and has been struggling with hormone issues for over a decade.
