659. Women as Breadwinners, Trauma's Impact on Hormones + Emotional Weight Loss

In this episode, Krista invites the incredible Dr. Taz Bhatia, M.D., (aka Dr. Taz) to dive deep into the intricate world of women's hormone health. The conversation kicks off with an eye-opening discussion about Dr. Taz's journey in the holistic and integrative/ functional medicine space and how it began with her own hormone hell 20+ years ago. 

The duo explores the hormonal challenges that arise when women are the breadwinners, like navigating superwoman syndrome, and the importance of identifying and unblocking emotions. 

From carrying emotional and physical weight to understanding the connection between chakras and health, this episode is an insightful journey that encourages listeners to embrace their hormonal symphony and find empowerment in their well-being.
