Today I discussed deeper what it means to have and MTHFR mutation, whether or not you should be tested, and what you can do to better help your body if you have been diagnosed (spoiler it's not a life sentence, just a little nutrition focus will do you wonders)

Today's episode is a new beginning for the podcast! I was not expecting or planning (at all) to make this shift and had plans to continue originally in a different direction in this new year. But instead, I felt a pull to open up about my personal journey to learning about my health, hormones, endo, mthfr mutation, and what I am doing about it all. There isn't any nutrition specific talk for today, but we are discussing my background and why I am ready now to start sharing what I am doing personally with all of you. I am so excited to continue forward focusing on female health and hormones and (of course!) nutrition and how you can make those bite-sized changes towards better health for you!

ALSO if you aren't subscribed to the podcast you need to now so you can be notified when I post again in the new year :)
