Today's topic is ALL ABOUT HORMONES. Ashley Rocha, the founder of Ladywell, joins us to chat about women's hormonal health, herbalism, and what it's like building a business while raising two (!!) babies under 3 years old. We are going to explore the link between a symptom-free menstrual cycle and fertility, and how herbal supplements like ashwagandha can work miracles for both women's and men's reproductive health.
Other topics:

  • Lifestyle tips for balancing your hormones pre-conception and postpartum
  • Herbs for both female and male hormonal health
  • What it's like balancing babies and a business as a founder in the early stages
  • Balancing your sense of identity as a new mom
  • Transitioning from a stable corporate career into being a founder

+ so much more
