In this episode, I sit down with Sarah E. Hill, PhD, whose research has completely changed the way I think about hormones and how they shape our day to day lives. I wanted to bring her on because she has a gift for taking complex science and turning it into tools that actually make sense in real life. We get into how our hormones influence the brain, what really happens when birth control enters the picture, and why mood, cravings, energy, and even relationships can shift across the month. We also touch on practical ways to eat, train, and live in sync with your cycle, plus simple changes that can make everything from PMS to performance feel more manageable. It is a conversation that blends science with everyday life in a way that feels grounding and empowering.
