In this episode of The Wellness Verdict, Whitney sits down with Dr. Rachel Marynowski, a licensed naturopathic doctor and co-founder of Kale Blossom, to talk about what’s really behind the burnout so many moms are feeling — and why conventional medicine is missing the mark on women’s health.

Dr. Kale unpacks the root causes of thyroid issues, hormonal imbalances, and postnatal depletion — and why these issues are now showing up in teenage girls. She explains how beauty products, chronic stress, nutrient deficiencies, and toxic household exposures are affecting women and families, and what we can do to take back control of our health without chasing perfection.

You’ll also hear her take on hormone replacement therapy, GLP-1 weight loss drugs, and the real reason moms are breaking down — plus how to start cleaning up your home, diet, and mental load in small, sustainable steps.
