Cancer can feel random and terrifying, but it rarely comes out of nowhere. Dr. Naylor talks with Katrina Foe of Cancer Freedom, who found a golf-ball-sized lump while nursing her fifth child. At the time, she was the “healthy one” in her friend group. Functional testing showed a whole list of root causes she’d had no symptoms for. That experience sent her back to school, and today she works exclusively with cancer clients.
We get into:
✔️ Why cancer is less random than it seems, and how the immune system fits in
✔️ The 10 pillars Katrina looks at with every client
✔️ What most people miss about detoxing
✔️ Why mold shows up in nearly all of her clients, even without symptoms
✔️ Insulin resistance on a “healthy” diet
✔️ The one food she wants everyone to cut out
✔️ Why testing beats guessing, especially with hormones
If cancer is a word that makes you freeze, this episode is a hopeful, practical place to start.

If you get tired faster than everyone around you, feel bombarded by noise, scents, and bright lights, or struggle with hormones that never seem to balance, this episode is for you.
Dr. Naylor talks with Lori Finlay, a former critical care nurse who became a functional medicine hormone specialist after years of being sick, dismissed, and told it was all in her head.
Lori discovered that she was a highly sensitive person (HSP), a genetic trait that affects how the nervous system responds to the world. She now uses DUTCH and DNA testing to help sensitive women understand what’s going on in their bodies.
We get into:
✔️ Lori’s journey from the ICU to menopause at 42 and years of being dismissed
✔️ Orchids, tulips, and dandelions, and what it means to be a highly sensitive person
✔️ A bigger nervous system response, and its link to cortisol and hormone imbalance
✔️ Challenges and superpowers that come with being highly sensitive
✔️ Simple ways to find out if you’re an HSP and where to start
If you’ve ever felt like you’re “too sensitive” or can’t keep up, this episode will help you see your sensitivity as a gift, not a flaw.

In midlife, the rules for food and exercise change, and most women respond by trying harder with stricter eating and longer workouts. This episode makes the case for doing less, and if eating and exercise have started to feel like a second job, it will help you take some of the pressure off.
Dr. Naylor talks with Andrea Marcellus, a Los Angeles-based fitness and wellbeing expert and the founder of AND/life. She got her first fitness certification at 19, and a board of neuroscientists later gave her an honorary title of neuroplastician for her work training the brain alongside the body.
We get into:
✔️ Why people lose weight on vacation, even with the wine and dessert
✔️ How insulin sensitivity changes in perimenopause and why intermittent fasting can backfire
✔️ How stress hormones lead to grazing at night
✔️ How to find the right portion size without counting calories
✔️ Testing whether grains and dairy are a problem for you
✔️ Short interval workouts and a 90-second brain training exercise
✔️ Gut health, inflammation, and starting with food before supplements

Ovaries are the fastest-aging organ in the body, and most longevity research was never built with women in mind. The good news is that what we're learning about aging in general maps closely onto the ovary.
Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Kay Linker, a neuroscientist who studied brain aging before shifting her focus to female longevity. She's the founder of Aonian, a supplement company made specifically for women's longevity, and she's currently pregnant.
We get into:
✔️ Why women were left out of research for so long
✔️ Ovaries, mitochondria, and why energy matters for fertility
✔️ How to tell if your red light device actually works
✔️ CoQ10, NR, selenium, and zinc for both partners
✔️ What she cut when trying to conceive, from sauna to intense workouts
✔️ Why metabolic health is the first place to start
If you want to protect your fertility for longer and don't know where to begin, this episode gives you a clear starting point.

Midlife hormone changes can make food feel confusing. Maybe you're gaining weight around your belly, crashing between meals, or dealing with brain fog, and suddenly nothing you used to eat works anymore. Add the endless noise about protein and intermittent fasting, and it's hard to know where to start.
Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Deanna Minich, nutrition scientist, author, and chief science officer at Symphony Natural Health. She's internationally known for her work on color-coded nutrition, detoxification, and hormone health, worked alongside Dr. Jeffrey Bland, the father of functional medicine, for over a decade, and received the 2025 Linus and Ava Helen Pauling Award for her contributions to integrative health.
After dealing with PMS, painful periods, and endometriosis from her teens on, she built a full-spectrum approach to health that brings science and spirituality together.
We get into:
✔️ How cortisol, glucose, and insulin shift together in perimenopause
✔️ Protein, fiber diversity, and why omega-3s matter more now
✔️ FSH, the overlooked hormone that may signal changes in bone, brain, and body composition
✔️ What each color of food does for your body, and why purple is the one we eat least
✔️ The best times of day to eat for hormone balance
✔️ Simple ways to make food fun again, from rainbow bingo to photographing your plate
If food has started to feel like one more thing to fix, start here. This episode will help you see it as a tool for feeling like yourself again.

Many of us see our teeth as separate from the rest of the body and stop at brushing and a cleaning twice a year. Your mouth is connected to your hormones and fertility and can even affect your pregnancy.
Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Nicole Vane, a holistic dentist and owner of Moonlight Beach Dental in Encinitas, California. After dealing with mercury toxicity, Hashimoto's, and years on the pill, she moved to a whole-body approach. Her cycles became regular for the first time at 35, and she got pregnant naturally at 39.
We get into:
✔️ How gum inflammation and hormone shifts show up together
✔️ The two gum bacteria linked to infertility and miscarriage, and why your partner should get tested too
✔️ Bleeding gums as an early warning sign
✔️ The problem with most mouthwashes and the "more fluoride" mindset
✔️ Why saving your natural teeth matters for long-term health
✔️ "Have a baby, lose a tooth" and what mineral depletion does to moms
If you've been told to brush more and come back in three months, start here. This episode looks at what could be behind the problem.

Migraine is now the leading cause of disability in women under 50, and most women dealing with them have been handed a pill and sent on their way.
Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Amelia Barrett, board-certified neurologist, TEDx speaker, founder of the Migraine Relief Code, and author of the new book Decode Your Migraine, about what migraines actually are, why your specific headache diagnosis matters less than you've been told, and how to start fixing the root causes.
We get into:
✔️ Why the diagnosis (migraine vs. tension vs. cluster) matters less than the underlying biology
✔️ Chronification, and why waiting years to address headaches makes them so much harder to fix
✔️ Hormones and migraine, and why patch HRT is not off the table for you
✔️ The one blood test Dr. Barrett wants every woman to get (and the number to aim for)
✔️ How toxins, stress wiring, and nutrient deficiencies fill up your "migraine bucket"
If you've been powering through headaches with ibuprofen and told there's nothing more to do, start here.

So many women spend a year or more trying to conceive with little real support, only to eventually land on a diagnosis like "unexplained infertility" that explains nothing at all.
Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Katie Wood, pharmacist, fertility and motherhood wellness coach, and the voice behind Happy Nourished Motherhood, about why the one-year wait for testing doesn't serve women, and what's really going on when conception isn't happening.
We get into:
✔️ Why unexplained infertility often just means the full picture was never tested
✔️ The gut-vaginal-uterine microbiome connection most doctors never look at
✔️ Simple, modifiable habits (even sauna and hot tub use) that can affect sperm health
✔️ Why "normal" lab ranges aren't the same as optimal for fertility
✔️ The one morning habit Dr. Wood says makes the biggest difference for her clients
✔️ How coming off birth control can leave your body needing real time to recover
If you've ever felt dismissed with "you're healthy, just keep trying," start here.
