Why Your Hormones Aren't the Problem: A Root Cause Approach to Women's Health with Sheeva Stephens

In this episode, I sit down with one of my oldest and dearest friends, Sheeva Stephens, functional medicine and brain health specialist, for a deeply personal and empowering conversation about what it really takes to heal your body from the inside out. Sheeva shares her raw and vulnerable journey of being put on Adderall at 12 years old, navigating years of debilitating side effects, and ultimately moving across the country to wean herself off three medications—a process that became the catalyst for the life-changing work she now does with women all over the world. We dig into why so many high-achieving women are walking around chronically inflamed, dismissed by doctors, and stuck in bodies that no longer feel like home. Sheeva breaks down the four pillars of her healing methodology, the most common symptoms women in their 40s are facing today (bloating, brain fog, anxiety, sleep disturbances, hair loss), and why hormones often aren't the real problem. We also get into peptides, GLP-1s, supplements, electrolytes, and the foundational habits every woman should be doing right now to reduce inflammation and reclaim her energy. If you've been feeling "off" and can't figure out why—or you've been told by doctors that this is just how it is—this episode is your sign to listen to your body and start asking better questions.
