You know that intense anger that can take over your mind and body until you sustain yourself with something to eat? This could be caused by a trio of hormones known as cortisol, insulin and thyroid hormones. While they aren't the sexiest hormones out there, they can be game changers when getting to the bottom of the root causes of your symptoms.  Sarah Fragoso and Dr. Brooke Kalanick combined their backgrounds in strength and wellness coaching and naturopathic and functional medicine to write the new book Hangry. Through the book, they set up pillars of mindset and healthy habits to provide you a sustainable guide to your hormones that you can refer back to for the rest of your life. Today they are here to share some of this knowledge with us to help you turn things around when you need it most.  Every woman has a unique hormonal system, which is why Sarah and Dr. Brooke created a fully customizable plan that addresses everything from mindset to strength training protocols. Learn how to walk the line of your delicate hormonal imbalances, where to start looking for answers within your own body, and specific signs that your hormones may be off balance.  Sarah and Dr. Brooke believe in silencing the mass amounts of information that is available to help you narrow in on what is going to work for you. By harnessing radical acceptance and self-respect you can find power in your ability to make choices that support your hormones.  Are you ready to stop being hangry and start being happy instead?

Because there is a lot of help to be had there in the supplement world which can be really powerful medicines when we use them right.” (24:30) - Dr. Brooke “Women's hormones are changing all the time. They are different every day, they are certainly different week to week and they are very different decade to decade. And that is a really amazing thing that happens to us, and there are times when it feels really frustrating.” (30:03) - Sarah   Resources Mentioned Order Hangry Here Sarah and Dr. Brooke’s Website The Sarah and Dr. Brooke Show Take the Hormone Quizzes Here 20 Page Free Histamine Guide - Hangry Book Bonus Get the Essential Oil Hormone Solution Here Follow Dr. Mariza’s Virtual Book Club on Facebook | Instagram   Other Resources: The Essential Oils Hormone Solution by Dr. Mariza Check out the full show notes page Keep up with everything Dr. Mariza Follow Dr. Mariza on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube
