Are PMS mood swings, hormonal acne, and painful periods wearing you down, all while doctors tell you your tests are "normal"? Your hormones might need more attention, and the Dutch test could help.

The Dutch test is an at-home urine test that reveals if your estrogen levels are imbalanced and can identify low progesterone, adrenal fatigue, or insulin resistance affecting your energy and fertility.

In this episode, Leisha and Dr. Heather Rhodes discuss Heather’s results to help you:

• Uncover hidden hormone issues and why typical supplements might not work
• Eliminate PMS by managing cortisol and blood sugar levels
• Boost fertility and energy with simple, natural solutions.

If you’re ready to balance your hormones, eliminate PMS, and get genuine answers (instead of just another "normal" test result), hit play. Your journey to pain-free periods and more energy starts now!

Why does your period suddenly feel like a monthly punishment? If you’re in your 40s (or getting close) and noticing unexplained symptoms—from belly fat to burnout—you could be in perimenopause without realizing it. Worse? Common habits, like that nightly glass of wine, might unnecessarily complicate things.

What if your PMS, irregular periods, or sudden weight gain aren’t just "part of getting older," but signs your hormones are crying for balance?

In this episode, board-certified OB/GYN and functional medicine expert Malaika Woods reveals:

• Signs of estrogen dominance that may explain your worsening PMS
• The blood sugar-hormone connection sabotaging your energy and waistline
• Why "normal" labs don’t mean optimal, and the tests you should request.

Play now to understand your hormones—so you can fix what’s truly fixable and start thriving (even in perimenopause).

P.S. Not in perimenopause? This episode is packed with insights to boost fertility, ease PMS, and combat hormonal acne, giving you the knowledge you need before the rollercoaster begins.

Overwhelmed by the endless "clean living" advice? Just want to know which swaps can help with estrogen dominance, painful periods, and hormonal acne? What if you could make a few changes to your daily routine to naturally balance your hormones without blowing your budget or driving yourself crazy?

In this episode, Leisha breaks down the most impactful product swaps for your home, menstruation, and beauty routine.

You’ll learn:

• The #1 period product upgrade that can ease cramps, heavy flow, and even recurrent UTIs—plus, which "clean" options to avoid
• 3 kitchen toxins (like that "harmless" non-stick pan) worsening estrogen dominance, and what to use instead
• Beauty & cleaning hacks (including a 2-ingredient deodorant recipe!) that help cut out toxins without restrictive diets or expensive overhauls

If you’re struggling with PCOS, insulin resistance, or post-birth-control syndrome, reducing everyday toxins could be a game-changer for balancing hormones: less inflammation = happier cycles, clearer skin, and more stable energy levels.

Want to simplify hormone-friendly living? Hit play to learn which swaps matter so you can feel better without the stress!

• The burnout-hormone connection: How a dysregulated nervous system sabotages pain-free periods, fertility, and blood sugar balance
• 3 non-negotiable daily habits to increase progesterone naturally, decrease PMS mood swings, and reboot energy—without adding to your to-do list (movement ≠ workouts!)
• A 90-second "physiological sigh" that lowers cortisol faster than meditation (Michelle teaches us how to do it live!)
• How to get your body out of fight-or-flight so you can finally experience pain-free periods, stable energy, and fewer "why am I crying over this commercial?!" moments

Press play to break the burnout cycle and finally find relief - your hormones will thank you.

Have you ever tried a "hormone-balancing" supplement for issues like PMS, painful periods, or estrogen dominance, only to find that nothing changed, or possibly even got worse? Trust me, you're not alone; Dr. Heather Rhodes and I witness this all the time in our practice.

Here's the honest truth: Many popular supplements like DIM, Vitex, and even iron can backfire if you're using them wrong. In this episode, we're breaking down:

• Why DIM can actually CRASH your estrogen levels, and when it might truly help
• The major pitfalls of "progesterone-boosting" Vitex
• The specific group of women who should consider Myo-Inositol (hint: if you have PCOS, this is a game changer)
• How iron supplements could be making heavy periods even worse
• Why adaptogens like ashwagandha often fail to provide long-term relief from fatigue

If you’re tired of throwing your money at supplements that don’t deliver results, or worse, create new issues, Dr. Heather and I are here to help you navigate the chaos. Hit play to discover what genuinely works for hormonal acne, irregular cycles, and post-birth control recovery, all without the frustration of guesswork.

Ever feel like you need that glass of wine (or third coffee) just to get through the day? What if your cravings stem from a stressed-out nervous system, not a lack of willpower?

If you’re a high-achieving woman dealing with fatigue, PMS, or hormonal chaos, your nervous system might be the hidden culprit. Chronic stress can disrupt your body’s balance, driving you toward quick fixes like alcohol or caffeine, only to leave you more drained.

In this episode, Colleen—a mindful drinking coach and busy mom of four—shares:

• The surprising link between nervous system dysregulation and hormonal issues, and how to break the cycle
• Three daily habits (like the caffeine-to-wine pipeline) that keep you stuck in stress mode, plus healthier swaps for better energy
• A 60-second reset technique to stop stress spirals—no meditation required!

If you’re ready to trade survival mode for sustainable energy, hit play to break the cycle without completely quitting caffeine or wine.
