In this episode, Juanique and Dr. Rodgers unpack Step 7 in the Order of Healing—sex hormones—and explain why they should never be the starting point in your healing journey. If you’ve been struggling with low libido, weight gain, poor sleep, mood swings, or brain fog, this conversation helps you understand why those symptoms are often rooted in deeper dysfunction.
They walk through how mindset, gut health, liver function, adrenals, thyroid, and mitochondrial energy all impact your hormone balance. Juanique also shares new insights about breast implant illness and its connection to thyroid dysfunction, and they both emphasize how dangerous it is to treat hormones in isolation.
