In this special solo episode, I dive into my personal journey with wellness, fitness, and longevity. Reflecting on my early 20’s, motherhood, and keeping up with the evolving wellness trends, I share how my mindset shifted from superficial goals to a holistic approach focused on nourishment, prevention, and self-compassion. I share the challenges of navigating conflicting health advice and the importance of understanding women's unique physical needs, emphasizing the transformative power of hormone intelligence, cycle syncing, and personalized health practices.
