270: Hormones, Fatigue & Gut Issues? It’s Time to Own Your Wellness with Lisa Smith


Listen Later

Ever feel like you're fine... but also kind of exhausted, bloated, and running on caffeine and willpower? Yeah, same. The truth is, just because you’re not sick doesn’t mean you’re actually healthy. That’s where Lisa Smith comes in.

Lisa is a licensed dietitian, nutritionist, and the host of the Pretty Well podcast, and she’s on a mission to help busy women like us take control of our health—without the overwhelm. In this episode, we dive into:

  • The surprising connection between your gut, hormones, and energy levels
  • What tests actually matter (and which ones are a waste of money)
  • Simple changes that can have a huge impact on how you feel

If you’re ready to stop guessing and start thriving, this one’s for you.
