Description

I get so many hormone questions!  So I needed a podcast to refer people to.
I hope I did okay covering the basics and deep diving into some more complicated details.
Enjoy!
1. Sex and Menopause
2. Systemic versus Vaginal Hormones
3. Estrogen Doesn't Cause Cancer
4. We gendered hormones and how this hurts women
5. Natural is a weapon waged to keep us in our place
6. Pellets and compounds are to be avoided if better options are available
7. You never need to stop hormones
8. The FDA will not help us (the two cases of Testosterone and Alzheimer's disease). 
(bonus) I hate the word "balanced" when discussing hormones.  Pro tip - people are probably just trying to sell you something.

Empowering women (and the partners who love them) to live their best sex lives. Combining the power of mind-work, body-science and relationships, I joyously smash the societal barriers that are keeping us from living our best intimate lives. Whether you are young or past menopause, single or in a long-term relationship, it is never too late or too early to realize YOU ARE NOT BROKEN. With humor, candor and ease, I break down the stories that we have been told about being sexual beings, to help us play, and normalize our intimacy. Nothing in this podcast is personal medical advice, of course.
