YOUR HOST
I started this podcast in 2017 — not to shout into the void, but to start the kinds of conversations I wished existed. The ones that name the real reasons women feel off, even when they “do everything right.”
As a Projector, I lead with pattern recognition. As a Human Design + functional nutrition practitioner, I give language to what your body’s already been whispering.
This show is about unlearning the noise — and rebuilding self-trust, one episode at a time.

Episode 108: On Quieting the Mind and Allowing Yourself A Chance to Breathe
Being a Type-A person, managing my to-do list, meeting schedule, and borderline OCDC behavior is par for the course. But at some point, all that daily tension takes its toll.
In this episode, I’m continuing my discussion from Episode 107 with an update on the current status of my health.
You’ll hear me share how I’m using conventional and functional approaches to repair hormonal imbalances, and also, how I’m doing some inner work to address deeply rooted behaviors, tendencies, and mindsets that’s kept me in a fight + flight state, so I can bring myself back into balance in a more rested + digested state.
I share the different tools and exercises that I’m incorporation into my daily routine to reset my behaviors, build new habits and how they help to balance hormones.
