On this episode of Everything's Messy Podcast, I’m diving headfirst into one of the messiest conversations in wellness: women's health.
I go on a journey of what I find to be a typical women’s health path. Starting in the younger years with irregular monthly periods and acne to pregnancy years, postpartum and inevitably perimenopause/menopause.
Each phase is unique and requires different nutrition and care. As the typical medical conventional way starts with being prescribed birth control, to navigating infertility and prescribed heavy synthetic hormones, postpartum struggles prescribed with more birth control and maybe an anti-depressant, and eventually perimenopause/menopause being prescribed extreme hormones and more, many women find themselves moving from one prescription to the next while never really getting answers about why their bodies are struggling in the first place.
In this episode, I explore why self-advocacy matters so much, why nutrition and lifestyle often get overlooked in conventional healthcare conversations, and why so many women feel unheard, dismissed, or even gaslit when seeking help.
We talk about:
✨ The impact hormonal birth control can have on nutrient levels and natural hormone production
✨ Why understanding your body is one of the most powerful forms of self-care
✨ The lack of nutrition education in traditional medical training
✨ Perimenopause, menopause, and the need for more holistic conversations around women's health
✨ Why asking questions is not being difficult—it's being informed
As always, this episode isn't about fear. It's about curiosity. It's about empowering yourself with information and remembering that nobody will ever care more about your health than you do.
If you've ever felt dismissed, frustrated, confused, or simply exhausted trying to navigate your health journey, this conversation is for you.
The mess isn't the problem.
Sometimes the mess is where the answers begin.
