On this episode of Real Talks on the Rocks, I sit down with Alex Casini. Alex is a holistic nutritionist who specializes in working with women to get their stress and hormone levels into balance through diet and stress relievers. Alex goes deep into hormonal birth control, the lack of information about our bodies and women-specific advice on how to balance career and motherhood.
