Estrogen might not be on your radar but if you’re dealing with thyroid issues, it probably should be.

Estrogen dominance doesn’t always show up on a standard lab panel but it can quietly stall thyroid function, lead to nodules, and leave you feeling foggy or stuck. In this episode, I walk through the three main drivers of estrogen dominance, how to spot hidden signs of poor detox, and why your gut and liver play such a key role. I also share specific steps like nutritional, supplemental, and lifestyle-based strategies to help support healthy estrogen metabolism without overcorrecting.

It’s a thoughtful look at a common issue that doesn’t get talked about enough, especially in thyroid care. Tune in now!

Even the best thyroid protocol might stall if your gut hasn’t been addressed.

In this episode, we take a closer look at seven common gut-related roadblocks that can interfere with thyroid recovery. That includes foods like gluten, grains, and nightshades but also deeper layers like low stomach acid, gut infections, and hidden stress. You’ll also hear about environmental factors such as glyphosate and xenoestrogens that erode gut integrity over time.

Overall, it’s about understanding what could be getting in the way, and making thoughtful shifts where it makes sense. Healing the gut is often a foundational step, especially for autoimmune thyroid conditions.

If you’ve ruled out the usual thyroid suspects but still feel off, this could help explain why. Tune in now!

If you’ve been focusing on gut or thyroid health but haven’t given much thought to stress, this is worth checking out.

Based on personal experiences and clinical patterns I’ve seen, chronic stress plays a bigger role than people realize. It’s not about eliminating stress completely— (because that’s not always realistic), but understanding how it might be affecting your body and what you can do to better support your system. I also share a few simple, practical ideas that might help, especially if things feel a bit stuck.

If progress feels slow despite your best efforts, I really encourage you to give this one a listen. It could shift the way you think about your healing path.
