This episode is for every woman who’s ever walked out of a doctor’s office feeling dismissed, overwhelmed, or more confused than when she went in. Jennifer Nelson-Hawks joins me to unpack:

* How your lymphatic system is like your body’s sewer system (and how to actually get it flowing)

* The truth about hydration and why just drinking water isn’t enough

* Gut health: why it’s called your second brain and what it’s really trying to tell you

* How to know when your doctor isn’t really on your side, and how to get honest answers

This isn’t about giving you another to-do list. It’s about learning how to trust your body, ask better questions, and finally feel like you’re in the driver’s seat of your health again.
