This episode just picked up where we left off last time, and it grew out of a question we’ve been sitting with lately: what’s ACTUALLY shaping women’s health right now? 

Today, Heather and I talk through the health and hormone trends we see gaining momentum as we head into 2026. Some of them are things we’ve personally seen help women and we feel good about. Others made us stop and ask more questions before moving forward. And in a lot of cases, slowing down has felt like the wiser choice for our own health.

A few moments that stood out:

• Concerns and boundaries around AI in health and hormone support
• Why peptides aren’t inherently bad, but often used without enough context or preparation
• Why hyper-focusing on one body system often misses the bigger picture

If health advice has been coming at you from all sides lately, press play and let us help you think differently about what your next step is.

We’re back today with a reflection that we’ve been thinking about this week - what have we done in 2025 that really moved the needle for our health - mentally, spiritually, and physically? 

I brought my hormone bestie, Heather, on today so we could share some of the things that we are so glad we learned and implemented this year to keep us moving forward in health and life. Spoiler alert - nothing I’m sharing is a favorite supplement or “health hack”, they’re all more nuanced than that. 

If you’re an OG listener and love to hear the real BTS, this one is for you.

Here are a few moments you’ll hear us unpack:

• How prayer and community reshaped our nervous systems and stress responses
• A belief we had to unlearn before our bodies could respond differently
• One small shift that didn’t feel important at the time, but changed everything over the months

Grab your journal before you hit play so you can process through this one with us.

I'm a big podcast girl, so when Spotify Wrapped came out this year I thought it would be fun to share with you what my favorite podcasts are. My taste is a little all over the map + I share my Spotify with my kids so this one is extra fun. The truth is you really don't know a person until you hear what their favorite podcasts are.

Have you seen the ads for parasite cleanses that fix EVERYTHING and thought...maybe I need to do that?

Maybe you do, but it also can make things worse, not better if your body isn't ready! 

Let's talk today about when a parasite cleanse is the right option, what to know first, and how to decide if the one you're thinking about is actually the right next step for you or not. I'll help you sort through if you need lab testing & a personalized protocol or if your body might be stable enough to DIY this one.

Here’s what I’ll walk you through:

• Why most of us DO have parasites, but not everyone is ready to cleanse safely
• The surprising mineral and drainage issues that make parasite cleanses backfire
• Two at-home parasite cleanses I trust, and how to know if your body is ready for them

You're going to want to discuss this one with your bestie, so send it to her when you push play and she'll be prepared with all the details.

It's the end of the year (already!) and that means I'm auditing my life in general and deciding what I want to come with me into next year and what I want to change. Today I'm talking about how I'm simplifying my health and hormone health in a few ways - making BBT tracking easier so I'll actually do it again, and simplifying my supplements.

Have you ever caught yourself holding your breath and realizing you’ve been tense for hours without even noticing? That was me all the time, until I started paying attention to what my body was asking for, rather than what I thought I should be doing.

So, today, I’m talking about rest. The real kind. Not sleep (though most of us aren’t getting enough of that either), but the kind of rest that lets your shoulders drop, your breath slow down, and your spirit finally feel safe. The kind that most of us, busy moms, avoid, or feel guilty about, even though it can change our hormones more than any supplement, protocol, or perfect routine ever can.

You'll learn:

• The surprising moment I realized I wasn’t truly resting 
• Why your body can’t absorb minerals or balance hormones, if your mind never slows down
• Simple and doable rest practices I use that make a bigger difference than any self-care checklist

If you’ve been wondering why PMS hits harder on the weeks you push through, or why your mood settles on the days you finally slow down, this episode will make that pattern unmistakably clear. You’ll hear exactly how your body signals that it’s done running on adrenaline, why your hormones can’t reset without real rest, and what small shifts move the needle when nothing else does.

Does drinking alcohol affect your hormones? It definitely does, but how much you drink and how well your body tolerates it depends on you! 

If you are wondering how much alcohol you can enjoy over the holidays without totally throwing off your hormones, I brought back a conversation that answers this in the clearest, most honest way - without guilt, scare tactics, and without telling you that you can never drink again. 

Here’s what we walk through together:

• How alcohol interacts with your hormones, liver, minerals, and blood sugar
• Why your reactions show up a day or two later, not always the morning after
• Simple ways to drink more intentionally, if you choose to drink, so your hormones don’t pay for it afterward

If you’ve ever felt torn between wanting to enjoy the holidays and wanting to feel like yourself, this episode will help you make choices that actually support both. You’ll walk away feeling more informed and more supported, so you can decide for yourself what feels worth it this season.
