It’s one of the most frustrating parts of navigating your healthy journey when your basic labs come back “normal,” but you feel anything but fine. In this video, I’m sharing my personal experience and what I’ve learned about advocating for deeper testing, trusting yourself when you know more help is needed and finding answers when the standard system says you’re okay.

The connection between your sleep, your hormones, your mental health, and weight loss is intricate… and crucial to your well-being.

Your sleep quality affects everything, from your cortisol levels to your gut health, your hunger hormones, and everything in between.

What can you do about this?

This is exactly the question I answer in this week’s episode of the Balancing Hormones Naturally podcast.

Listen in and learn how sleep (and lack of it) affects your hormones, what causes sleep disturbances during perimenopause and menopause, how stress impacts your sleep hygiene, the best tips to improve your sleep, and so much more.

Ready to get your sleep and hormones back on track?

Then run, don’t walk, and tune in now!

Have you ever wondered if “clean” makeup is actually clean or just another marketing trick?

I’ve been there too and this episode is for every woman who’s tried to switch to cleaner makeup, only to be overwhelmed by ingredient lists, disappointed by performance, or just left wondering what’s actually safe.

This week, I’m walking you through my personal (and slightly chaotic) journey of testing a ton of clean beauty brands—from the fails to the holy grails.

I’m not a makeup artist, just someone who really cares about what goes on my skin and how it actually wears throughout the day.

I’ll be sharing my honest reviews on brands like RMS Beauty, PiperBlue, Crunchi, Kosas, and so many more.

You’ll hear which ones passed the ingredient test, which ones totally blew me away performance-wise, and which ones... well, didn’t make the cut.

We’re talking texture, blendability, wear time, and—because you know I care—fragrance, parabens, talc, and all the sneaky toxins I won’t touch.

So if you’ve ever stood in the beauty aisle thinking, ‘what do I even buy?’ this one’s for you.

Tune in now to learn more!

Key Takeaways:

Introduction (00:00)

Why clean makeup is important (00:49)

My brand reviews (05:50)
