When Katy and Josh Whalen started noticing cracks in their marriage, they couldn’t have predicted how it would transform their lives and careers. For Josh, it was losing his health, energy, and even his sense of self. After realizing that his hormonal health was at the root of many struggles—including low energy, mood changes, and the strain on his relationship with Katy—he embarked on a journey to reclaim his health. What he discovered led him to create Blokes, a wellness company focused on optimized hormone health for men.

Katy's path ran parallel, confronting her own health challenges after experiencing hormonal imbalances following miscarriages and IVF. Witnessing Josh’s transformation, she realized similar solutions were missing for women. This sparked the creation of Joi Wellness, a resource for women facing health challenges often overlooked in traditional care. Together, they now champion proactive, accessible wellness solutions, showing us the power of taking charge of our health and relationships.

Key Takeaways:

• Understanding Hormonal Health: How hormone levels impact energy, mood, and relationships for both men and women.
• Signs of Hormonal Imbalance: Recognizing subtle symptoms that may indicate a need for hormonal support, like low energy, reduced sex drive, or mood shifts.
• Importance of Personalized Health: The value of using lab tests to tailor health strategies, rather than relying on generic advice or one-size-fits-all solutions.
• Empowerment in Health Choices: The need to advocate for proactive, preventative health care rather than waiting for health issues to escalate.
• Innovative Health Options: New, accessible approaches in wellness through hormone optimization, peptides, and supplements, especially for stages often overlooked by traditional health care.
