In this episode, we’re unpacking the deeper layers of acne—because breakouts are rarely just about your skincare routine.

I’m walking you through the real connection between your hormones, your gut, and your skin, and how things like stress, low progesterone, blood sugar swings, and sluggish detox pathways can show up on your face.

We talk about:

• The role of progesterone in calming inflammation
• What your skin might be telling you about your gut and liver
• Why cutting out sugar or dairy can feel like it “works”—and what to do instead How I’ve shifted from conventional products to cleaner, non–pore clogging ones (without going overboard)
• Ways to support your skin in each phase of your cycle
• Why true healing doesn’t start with surface-level fixes—it starts with restoring balance where your body feels safe to repair

In this episode of Hormone Happy Hour, we’re exploring a topic that deserves more depth, nuance, and support: female libido. Low desire is often brushed off or misunderstood—but the truth is, your body is always speaking. And when it comes to libido, there’s usually more going on beneath the surface.

We’ll look at libido through the lens of emotional health, hormone balance, spiritual alignment, and nervous system support, and I’ll share what I’ve seen work (and what might be keeping you stuck).

Inside this episode, we’ll unpack:

• The connection between cortisol, oxytocin, and dopamine
• Why progesterone matters more than you think
• How resentment, overstimulation, and burnout can block desire
• The cyclical nature of libido and how to stop labeling it as “low”
• Practical steps to reconnect with your body and foster deeper intimacy
• Why sleep and a sense of safety are essential foundations for desire

This isn’t a quick fix—it’s a whole-self approach to helping you feel more alive, more connected, and more at peace in your body again.

In this episode of Hormone Happy Hour, I’m bringing attention to a piece of the fertility puzzle that’s often ignored: sperm health.

So often, the focus is solely on the woman’s body—but male fertility plays a huge role in outcomes, whether you’re preparing your body for pregnancy or working to restore balance first. There’s a lot more to it than just sperm count, and today we’re getting into all the layers.

I’m walking you through:

• What sperm analysis really tells us (beyond just count)
• Markers like DNA fragmentation, morphology, and pH levels
• Lifestyle shifts, supplements, and gut support that can make a difference
• How stress, sleep, and emotional well-being affect male fertility
• Why masculine/feminine energy alignment in your relationship matters more than you think

This episode is part science, part heart, and a little summer fun—and it’s one I hope you’ll share with your partner or someone who needs to hear it.

✨ And a big thank you to Cozy Earth for sponsoring this episode! They make my favorite temperature-regulating sleep essentials that support deep rest (and yes—rest matters for sperm health, too).
