205 — The Hormone - Mental Health Connection: What Doctors Aren’t Telling You with Dr. Erika Schwartz


Listen Later

What if the key to unlocking your best mental and physical health lies in a part of your self-care routine that’s been overlooked? Your hormones impact everything from your mood and energy to your brain health and longevity.


Today’s guest, Dr. Erika Schwartz, is a pioneer in hormone health and the founder of Evolved Science. With over 30 years of experience advocating for preventative medicine, she’s dedicated to empowering people to reclaim their vitality and mental strength by understanding and addressing hormone imbalances. Some of the things we discuss are:


  • The surprising ways hormone imbalances could be at the root of your mental health struggles
  • How to recognize when your doctor might not have all the answers you need (and what to do next)
  • The overlooked role of hormones like testosterone and estrogen in mental fitness
  • What everyone should know about their thyroid
  • Lifestyle changes that can improve hormone health, including what to avoid and what to prioritize
  • Common myths about hormone therapy, including the truth about its safety and long-term benefits
  • Why early intervention and personalized care are key to balancing your hormones and building resilience
