Have you ever felt like stress is running your life? That no matter what you do, you’re constantly exhausted, irritable, or dealing with hormonal symptoms like PMS, heavy periods, or brain fog? You’re not alone!

Chronic stress plays a huge role in hormonal imbalances—especially estrogen dominance. When your body is in survival mode, it prioritizes stress hormones like cortisol over reproductive hormones, leading to a cascade of issues that disrupt your menstrual cycle, energy levels, and overall well-being.

In this episode, I’m diving deep into how chronic stress impacts estrogen dominance, the sneaky stressors you may not even realize are affecting you, and ten simple hacks to restore balance and feel like yourself again.

Let’s break the cycle of stress and reclaim your health!

Quotes

"Your body is always doing its best to reach homeostasis, but chronic stress makes that nearly impossible. If we don’t address stress, we can’t fully heal our hormones."

"Most of us are leaning towards estrogen dominance by default—especially after 35. The key is to support progesterone and reduce stressors that tip the balance."

"Managing stress isn’t just about reducing overwhelm—it’s about telling your body it’s safe so that it can prioritize healing, digestion, and hormone balance."
