We’ve been told to count calories, trust labels, and eat “healthy.” But what if the real story isn’t about what you eat, it’s about what’s actually in your food, and what it’s doing to your hormones?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Alexandra MacKillop, a functional medicine doctor and women’s health specialist, to unpack the truth about how stress, toxins, and nutrient-depleted foods are quietly disrupting women’s hormonal balance. We talk about how most women are taught to manage symptoms instead of understanding root causes, and why midlife so often becomes the turning point, the moment we finally wake up to what our bodies have been trying to say all along.

Dr. Alexandra shares her journey from food science to functional medicine and reveals what true healing looks like when we stop outsourcing our health and start listening to our bodies. She brings the perfect mix of science and soul, helping you reconnect with your natural rhythms and restore hormonal balance from the inside out.

If you’ve ever felt betrayed by “healthy eating” or wondered why you still feel off even when you’re doing everything “right,” this conversation will open your eyes to what’s really going on behind the scenes, and how to take your power back.

Most women are told that birth control is safe, simple, and the solution to their problems. But what if the truth is far more complicated, and your mental health is paying the price?

In this episode, I sit down with Taylor Lechner, Registered Dietitian and founder of Nourished by Taylor, to uncover the often-overlooked connection between hormonal contraceptives and mental health. Taylor shares her journey from conventional nutrition into women’s health advocacy, and we explore the realities women aren’t being told when they’re handed a prescription.

We talk about informed consent, the impact of hormonal birth control on mood and well-being, and the critical importance of self-advocacy in the medical system. Taylor also shares natural alternatives and root-cause approaches that help women restore balance without relying on quick fixes.

Have you ever wondered if the pill (or another hormonal contraceptive) might be affecting more than just your cycle?
This conversation is about education, awareness, and empowerment, so you can make the health decisions that truly serve you.

Most people think building wealth comes down to two levers: working harder or cutting back. But what if true wealth isn’t about either, and actually begins with values, mindset, and alignment?

In this episode, I sit down with Morgan Blackman, Holistic Wealth Coach, to talk about what it really means to create wealth you can feel at peace with. We unpack the unique financial challenges women face, the role of agency and responsibility in money decisions, and how mental health directly impacts financial well-being.

Morgan shares her journey of becoming a self-taught investor, her trauma-informed approach to financial coaching, and why guilt around pricing your services can keep you from your fullest potential. We also explore the role of intuition, wellness, and even AI in reshaping how we think about money.

Have you ever wondered why making more money, or spending less, still doesn’t make you feel wealthy?

This conversation is an invitation to reimagine wealth as wholeness: financial, emotional, and spiritual alignment that supports your life, not just your bank account.
