984. The Confidence Cure for an Ego-Driven World w/ Heal Squad All-Stars

What if your ego isn’t the enemy but a signal pointing you toward deeper healing? In this Heal Squad All-Star episode, Laura Berman, Ryan Weiss (wakingupwithryan), and Dr. Shefali explore the hidden dynamics of ego and confidence. They break down how ego-driven fear, imposter syndrome, and self-doubt hold us back—and how tuning into intuition, humility, and self-awareness can set us free. From navigating vulnerability to redefining confidence, this episode offers all of the tips you need to help you stop playing small and start living authentically! HEALERS AND HEAL-LINERS: "The ego thrives on fear." The ego’s primary goal is to keep us “safe,” but it often does so by creating fear-based stories that hold us back. Recognizing when fear is ego-driven can help you make more empowered decisions. The power of the “full-body yes.” Laura Berman shares how to tune into your body’s intuitive signals, like a feeling of openness or calm, to guide decisions. This practice helps distinguish between fear-based reactions and genuine alignment. "Intuition lives in the heart, not the gut." While gut instincts can sometimes be fear-based, Dr. Shefali explains that the heart is where true intuition resides. Learning to differentiate between the two can help you navigate life with clarity and confidence. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Nanit: https://www.nanit.com/ use promo code: DREAM20 for 20% off your first order Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Laura Berman Resources: https://www.instagram.com/drlauraberman/ Full episode: https://youtu.be/a5q6agUrGqk?si=2b9TP7vQyG33lO2J Ryan Weiss Resources: https://www.instagram.com/wakingupwithryan/ Full episode: https://youtu.be/_aAlm6M3oEA?si=u6-tpjdq1lkPt7lK Dr. Shefali Resources: https://www.instagram.com/doctorshefali/ Full episode: https://youtu.be/2u3d23VaMso?si=HHdnqD06zrs3onIh ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

979. Maria Explains How Mel Robbin’s “High-Five Habit” Transformed Her Healing Journey

Happy Throwback Thursday, Heal Squad! We're bringing back an episode that dives deep into the power of self-compassion and embracing our mistakes. Maria and Kelsey share their insights from a previous episode with Mel Robbins, where she breaks down her transformative “High Five Habit”—a simple practice of high-fiving yourself in the mirror every morning. This habit is more than a gesture; it’s an act of self-love and acceptance that flips self-criticism on its head. In her book, Mel shares how this daily ritual can reshape your perspective and serve as a powerful anchor when life’s storms hit. We talk about releasing guilt, letting go of self-doubt, and moving forward without the heavy weight of self-judgment. Maria even shares a recent experience where this habit helped her turn a minor car mishap into a moment of kindness rather than self-blame.

978. Terri Cole’s Guide to Breaking Generational Patterns of Good Girl Syndrome

If you’ve ever felt drained from constantly over-giving or managing everyone else’s needs, this episode with psychotherapist and Too Much author Terri Cole is the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed. In Part 2, Terri uncovers how high-functioning codependency keeps us stuck in cycles of over-responsibility and how this impacts our closest relationships—and even our health. Terri reveals her strategies like “resentment inventory,” redefining your “VIP section,” and tools for self-reflection. She walks us through the steps to take back our power, communicate boundaries, and release the pressure to “fix” everyone around us. PLUS, she dives into the importance of letting go of guilt and facing any pushback with strength and compassion. If you’re ready to build healthier, balanced relationships and reclaim your energy, Terri’s techniques will guide you there. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: The Resentment Inventory. Identify where you feel resentment in your life. This inventory helps pinpoint situations where you’re over-giving or sacrificing your own needs, laying the foundation for boundary-setting. Redefine Your “VIP Section.” Not everyone deserves a spot in your life’s “VIP section.” Prioritize relationships that nourish you, set boundaries to protect your emotional energy and foster balanced connections. “Good Girl Syndrome”. Many are conditioned to please others at their own expense. Learn the ways to recognize and shift this mindset, encouraging self-respect and authenticity over people-pleasing. Teaching Kids Healthy Boundaries. For parents, raising kids who understand that it’s okay to say no and set limits. Modeling boundaries teaches children to prioritize their well-being and empowers them to avoid the same “good girl” or “good boy” patterns. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Nanit: https://www.nanit.com/ use promo code: DREAM20 for 20% off your first order Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Terri Cole’s Resources Instagram https://www.instagram.com/terricole/?hl=en Website https://www.terricole.com/ HFC Toolkit https://www.terricole.com/hfc/ Book https://hfcbook.com/ Terri Cole on Heal Squad: https://youtu.be/xZbBICLPVAo?feature=shared https://youtu.be/hD7ktpOScG8?feature=shared ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Embrace Boundaries as Self-Respect. Boundaries aren’t just about managing others—they’re crucial for self-respect. Building boundaries protects our energy, preserves our well-being, and helps us step back from trying to "save" everyone else. Pause the Need to “Fix” Everything. Resist the urge to auto-give advice or fix others’ problems. Instead, asking others what they think they should do promotes autonomy and healthier dynamics, allowing them to find their own solutions. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Nanit: https://www.nanit.com/ use promo code: DREAM20 for 20% off your first order Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Terri Cole’s Resources Instagram https://www.instagram.com/terricole/?hl=en Website https://www.terricole.com/ HFC Toolkit https://www.terricole.com/hfc/ Book https://hfcbook.com/ Terri Cole on Heal Squad: https://youtu.be/xZbBICLPVAo?feature=shared https://youtu.be/hD7ktpOScG8?feature=shared ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

If you’ve been carrying the weight of stress and don’t know why, this episode will change everything. In part 2 of our conversation with MindBody Healing Expert, Dr. Kim D’Eramo, we dive even deeper into understanding how chronic stress patterns, stored emotions, and unbalanced energy keep us stuck. She reveals powerful practices for breaking free from the “fight-or-flight” response and how to shift from the constant “doing” that so many of us live in without realizing. With techniques like EFT tapping, breathwork, and the power of tuning into the body’s wisdom, Dr. Kim guides us through ways to clear out emotional blocks and ignite true healing. If you’re ready to transform your health, then it’s time to Be Your Own Healer, and Dr. Kim shares everything we need to know to do this.

By tapping on specific points, we can clear blockages that keep us in pain or stress, activating our body’s natural healing response.

Symptoms and discomfort are signals from the body, showing us where healing is needed and guiding us toward balance. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Nanit: https://www.nanit.com/ use promo code: DREAM20 for 20% off your first order Dr. Kim’s Resources Instagram YouTube Self-Discovery Quiz - Uncover the truth about why you’re not healing ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Tired of treating life like a never-ending self-improvement project? Today’s guest, Dr. Kim D’Eramo, MindBody Healing Expert and author of Be Your Own Healer, is back with us to explore how shifting this mindset can open the door to real healing. If you’ve been fighting—or “flighting”—through life, Dr. Kim is here to show you a different path. She dives into why chronic health struggles often stem from unprocessed emotions and stress patterns that we carry in our bodies, and also reveals how softening our approach, rather than pushing harder, can be the key to seeing transformative results on our healing journeys. She’ll guide you through practices for listening to your body’s signals, releasing fear and inflammation, and overcoming limiting beliefs that often hold us back. Dr. Kim’s insights remind us that health doesn’t come from forcing change, but from aligning with our body’s innate wisdom. Tune in to this episode (and your body) to learn more! Be Your Own Healer Book HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Healing Starts with Awareness: Simply tuning into the body’s signals—without judgment—can reveal hidden patterns that may be affecting our health.

966. Alex Clark on Plastics, Pharma Profits & the Risks of Birth Control

Ever feel like the products we use daily might be harming us more than helping? In part 2 of our conversation with Alex Clark, host of Culture Apothecary, we’re diving deep into the hidden dangers lurking in our kitchens and medicine cabinets. Alex reveals the unsettling history of plastics in our daily items, the risks of non-stick cookware, and even the shocking origins of birth control, exploring how women’s health decisions have long been influenced by profit-driven agendas. From the disturbing story behind Teflon and Dark Waters to the role of big corporations in today’s food and health standards, Alex breaks down the harmful additives and chemicals in everyday products. Don’t miss this eye-opening episode that will make you rethink everything in your pantry! Healers & Heal-Liners: Our Everyday Exposure: From plastics in our Starbucks cups to toxic non-stick cookware, we are continuously exposed to chemicals through common products that leach toxins into our food and drinks. Childhood Vaccines: Alex notes the U.S. childhood vaccine schedule has increased to 70 doses by age 18, with many shots combined, raising concerns about potential health impacts. Birth Control Trials: Birth control testing in the 1950s used Puerto Rican women without informed consent, leading to severe health complications and even fatalities. This shows the lack of transparency around women’s health. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop my Macy’s Wishlist OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Wonderful Pistachios: http://www.wonderfulpistachios.com/ Alex’s Resources: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realalexclark/?hl=en Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/culture-apothecary-with-alex-clark/id1507839530 Resources she mentioned: Full Roundtable discussion https://rumble.com/v5fy7bv-american-health-and-nutrition-a-second-opinion.html Vani Hari’s Kelloggs Petition The Business of Birth Control Documentary ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

965. Alex Clark Explains the Real Agenda Behind U.S. Food Policies

From the “Chicken Nugget Princess” to a fearless health advocate, Alex Clark has taken a bold stand against the hidden dangers in our food and healthcare systems– and today, she’s not holding back. The host of Culture Apothecary tells her story of how she went from loving fast food to testifying in front of Congress at the American Health & Nutrition Roundtable. She opens up about her journey through birth control side effetcs, her wake-up call with Big Pharma, and finding out thet the food pyramid we grew up with is basically a paid advertisement. Alex’s story isn’t just about changing her own health; she’s speaking up for millennial women and parents trying to raise healthy kids in a confusing world. Stay tuned for Part 2 tomorrow! Healers & Heal-Liners: When the people deciding what’s safe are funded by food and pharma giants, we’ve got to ask, “Who’s really benefitting?” Read the labels! If it’s full of ingredients that you can’t pronounce, it probably isn’t serving your health. Hormonal birth control can increase the risk of depression and anxiety. Change starts with action. Speak up, call congress, and demand better food policies. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop my Macy’s Wishlist OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Wonderful Pistachios: http://www.wonderfulpistachios.com/ Alex’s Resources: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realalexclark/?hl=en Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/culture-apothecary-with-alex-clark/id1507839530 Resources she mentioned: Full Roundtable discussion https://rumble.com/v5fy7bv-american-health-and-nutrition-a-second-opinion.html Vani Hari’s Kelloggs Petition The Business of Birth Control Documentary ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

958. Vani Hari Shares The 10 Food Ingredients You Should Avoid

Hey, Squad! We’re back with Part 2 of our eye-opening conversation with Vani Hari, the Food Babe, where we get into the nitty-gritty of food labels, chemicals, and how the wrong ingredients can be wreaking havoc on your health. Vani shares the 21 simple habits that transformed her life and can help you make healthier food choices—like ditching protein powders with artificial sweeteners and learning to recognize gut-disrupting gums in products. She also talks about her journey building Truvani and how bringing healthier food to major retailers like Walmart is changing the game. Learn the steps you can take (and even start today!) to remove harmful ingredients, shop smarter, and make a lasting impact on you, and your family’s health. This episode is packed with tips on reading food labels, understanding ingredient lists, and how to be a "food investigator" in your own life. You don’t want to miss it! Sign Vani’s Kelloggs Petition The Food Babe Way Book: 21 Healthy Habits HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS When you know better, you do better. The key to lasting change is awareness—once you understand what's in your food, making healthier choices becomes easier. Artificial Sweeteners to Avoid: Three of the most dangerous artificial sweeteners—sucralose, aspartame, and Ace-K—are still widely used in everyday products and linked to serious health risks like cancer and digestive issues. Gums and Additives: Common food additives like guar gum, carrageenan, and xanthan gum can disrupt your gut bacteria and lead to bloating, IBS, and other digestive problems. Changing where you shop changes your health. Simply switching to buying produce and groceries from local farmer’s markets can create a 180-degree shift in the quality of your diet and overall well-being.

957. Vani Hari Exposes the Toxic Food Industry & Why Our Food Makes Us Sick

Ever wonder what's really in your food, and why certain ingredients are legal here in the U.S. but banned overseas? Today, we're uncovering the hidden truths about the food industry with Vani Hari, AKA the Food Babe: fearless food activist, best-selling author, and co-founder of Truvani. Vani shares her personal journey from a childhood of fast food to becoming one of the most powerful voices for food transparency- and even successfully pushing major brands to clean up their ingredients. She reveals shocking differences between U.S. and European food standards, how companies use additives to keep us hooked, and why many of us are unknowingly consuming dangerous ingredients. Plus, actionable steps you can take to protect your health and your family from these toxic ingredients. From food dyes that can damage your DNA to chemicals used in fast food, Vani exposes it all. This episode will change the way you see your grocery store—don’t miss it! Sign Vani’s Kelloggs Petition Read Conscious Eating by Gabriel Cousens HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: You are what you digest and absorb. It’s important to understand not just what we eat and its ingredients, but how it affects our health at a deeper level. In the U.S., over 10,000 chemicals are allowed in our food, while the EU only permits 400. Many additives in U.S. foods are banned in other countries. To become informed consumers, we have to start by reading food labels and eliminating foods with unrecognizable ingredients from your pantry. 99% of chemicals created in the last 60 years have been designed to improve food companies’ bottom lines, not consumer health.

Regular Guy Friday 190. When Your Critics Are Wrong

Happy Regular Guy Friday as we fooled them again and made it through another week to our favorite day. How the criticism you may be receiving may just be projection from the critic. How your shame based side will be tempted to listen to critics but sometimes shouldn't. How success happens after 60 and how putting time limits and end dates on goals is counterintuitive. LONG RGF Bonus: How Norman Fell aka Mr. Roper knew not to take part in a spin off series, how Don Knotts aka Mr. Furley personally shopped for his own wardrobe and how Pennsylvania hosts an annual Mrs. Roper Day that actually draws huge crowds. How Dave and his Puppet @adventureswithdavid are the ventriloquist team to watch, how Matt from @vintagevideobasement decorated his basement to look like the year 1972 and how life here can't be so bad when you get to do all of the above.

951. Touré Roberts on The Secrets to Finding YOUR Life’s Balance

Happy Throwback Thursday Heal Squad! Today we are bringing back a refreshing conversation with best-selling author, Touré Roberts, where we dive into the essential topic of true balance! In the episode, Touré guides us on how to discover your unique path to well-being by tuning into the quiet voice within that urges you to pause. He emphasizes that true balance is personal and looks different for everyone. With practical tips for daily self-care and maintenance, Touré shares how embracing balance can lead to profound soul awareness. We even dive into the Touré idea of a “Soul Vacation” and the importance of reconnecting yourself. He teaches how to become soul aware by forcing us to take a moment and disconnect from the noise of the world - before it’s too late. Regardless of where you’ve been or what you’ve lost, embrace this moment as an opportunity for growth. Don’t let fear hold you back- tune in! Healers and Heal Liners: Personalized Balance: It’s all about YOUR balance. Recognizing that true balance is different for everyone allows you to focus on what truly resonates with you, rather than what it might look like for others. Soul Vacation: Taking the time to fully stop and reflect is a crucial part of awareness and personal growth. Don’t let the noise around you hold you back. Soul Awareness: Creating balance in your life allows you to connect with your deepest self. This connection enhances your overall well-being and brings a sense of fulfillment and purpose to your life. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop my Macy’s Wishlist OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Wonderful Pistachios: http://www.wonderfulpistachios.com/ Touré Roberts Resources: Link to Website: www.toureroberts.com Link to Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/toureroberts/?hl=en Link to his book- “Balance”: https://www.amazon.com/Balance-Tipping-Scales-Leveraging-Change-ebook/dp/B085XNBQDF ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

948. How Environmental Toxins Affect Our Health

Happy Monday Healers! On today’s chatshow we are joined by Maria and Natasha for a thought-provoking discussion of America’s health and nutrition crisis. Maria shares that she recently came across a headline discussion from Senator Ron Johnson’s roundtable discussion, where she found herself moved by the alarming truths shared by experts like Jillian Micheals and Dr. Casey Means. From pesticides to microplastics, we fail to realize how much these toxins are infiltrating our lives. Highlighting the urgent message from Dr. Casey about the limitations of our healthcare systems, and that this crisis isn’t just physical - it’s spiritual. Not to mention how difficult it is nowadays to feed and care for, not only yourself, but your children when everything around us may have toxins in them. They even dive into the social pressures and challenges of modern living, it’s important to find balance and actionable steps to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Remember, it's the simplicities of life that can bring you joy. Everything isn’t going to be perfect all the time but stacking better decisions is the only way to start. With all that, we are starting off the week on the right foot, squad!

947. Dr. Amy Myers on the Elimination Diet as the Autoimmune Solution

Happy Throwback Thursday Squad! We are continuing the theme of healing autoimmune disease by bringing back a jam-packed episode with Dr. Amy Myers. She is a physician, functional medicine expert, and 2x NYT bestselling author - you may even remember her from previous episodes! One of the reasons why we love Dr. Amy Myers and all of her knowledge is because her journey isn’t typical… After dealing with her own autoimmune disorder, gut issues her whole life, and being failed by modern medicine, she has a mission as a physician to share her insights and practices. In this episode, she shares the 5 factors of achieving the autoimmune solution and how hormones can have a lot to do with it! Also, when you’re dealing with autoimmune disease, one of the things you can do is the elimination diet. With this diet you can slowly incorporate foods back into your life and see how your body reacts- the most important part is to listen to what your body is saying and how you are feeling. Dr. Myers shares the benefits in doing so, you don’t want to miss this one! Healers and Heal Liners: There is a huge connection between emotional health and autoimmune disorders, there are holistic approaches to start the healing process. Don’t feel discouraged if traditional medicine doesn’t have a definite answer for you to heal, take a different approach. By listening to your body and what you are putting in it, you can prevent and heal inflammatory issues you may have with your autoimmune disease.

946. Dr. Sara Szal on Healing Deep Rooted Trauma & How Autoimmune Diseases Can Go Into Remission

Welcome back, Heal Squad! In part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Sara Szal, we dive deeper into the underlying hormone that could be the culprit to so many things we struggle with from depression and mental health to the onset of autoimmune diseases. She shares ways you can manage and lower cortisol before it causes the onset of autoimmune conditions and the importance of personalized medicine—it’s not a one-size-fits-all approach! PLUS we explore how autoimmune diseases can actually go into remission with lifestyle changes, an elimination diet, and even psychedelic-assisted therapies like MDMA for deep-rooted trauma healing. Dr. Szal gets real about the impact of “big T” and “little t” traumas, explaining how they live in our bodies and contribute to illness. You’re going to want to take notes on this one, friends! HEALERS AND HEAL-LINERS: Test, don’t guess. It’s important to get your cortisol levels under control before they dip too low, leading to the potential onset of autoimmune diseases. She recommends a “test, don’t guess” approach using the Dutch test, which looks at five different cortisol levels throughout the day. Signs of lower cortisol levels: Fatigue, Low blood pressure, Low mood, Fainting, Loss of appetite These micronutrients can make a huge impact on your cortisol and stress levels: Vitamin C, B6, and Magnesium. Dr. Szal shares how autoimmune diseases can go into remission through personalized approaches like elimination diets, managing leaky gut, and trauma therapies. She mentions her success in reversing autoimmune markers like antinuclear antibodies (ANA). Psychedelic-assisted therapy can be a major resolution for deep-rooted trauma. Dr. Szal explains that using MDMA-assisted therapy to resolve trauma can help resolve long-lasting effects on both mental and physical health. This approach helps in reconstructing one's narrative and reducing fear responses tied to trauma. (Please note this method is not FDA approved.)

945. Dr. Sara Szal on How Cortisol Might Be The Culprit Behind Autoimmune Disease

Hey, Heal Squad! Wondering why you’re feeling anxious, depressed, not getting enough sleep, or feeling that afternoon fatigue that you just can’t get rid of? Dr. Sara Szal might have the answer, especially if you’re one of the 24 million Americans affected by autoimmune conditions. Hint: It could be your cortisol! And if you haven’t heard much about cortisol, it’s because primary care physicians rarely test for this…Dr. Szal shares how cortisol, impacts everything from mental health to autoimmune disease, and why many women experience hormone shifts much earlier than they think. We unpack the role trauma plays in all of this too, signs you might have high cortisol, and steps you can take to get your cortisol levels in check. I can’t believe how little I knew about cortisol considering how many autoimmune conditions I have. This is a MUST LISTEN! HEALERS AND HEAL-LINERS: Cortisol (aka the “stress hormone”) is often overlooked, especially in women, even though it plays a major role in both our physical and mental health. Staying stuck in fight or flight can cause major fluctuations in cortisol levels, which can lead to the onset of autoimmunity. Hormone imbalances can start earlier than you think. It’s not something that waits until you’re in your 40s, these hormone imbalances can occur as young as your 20s! Signs of high cortisol levels: Anxiety, Depression, Weight gain/belly fat, High blood sugar, High blood pressure, Brain fog, Low sex drive, and Poor sleep Chronic stress can actually shrink your brain, especially for women, and can lead to the onset of Alzheimer's.
