Episode 114 Is Coffee Making You Sick?

Still Tired? How Coffee Might Be Quietly Sabotaging Your Hormones & Energy

Feeling exhausted no matter how much you sleep or how "healthy" you eat? The culprit might be your caffeine habit. In this episode, Healthy Habits & Lifestyle Coach Jovonnie sits down with Steve Frazier—author of Release the Coffee Cuffs—to explore how caffeine can silently contribute to hormone imbalance, PCOS, anxiety, fertility issues, and chronic fatigue.

We get into the science, the emotional patterns, and the cultural programming that keeps women especially tied to coffee as a survival tool—when it could be making everything worse.
