This conversation dives into the nitty-gritty of sexual wellness, hormone health, and the intimate connections that so many of us struggle to talk about—even with our partners. Dr. Diane Mueller joins me to unpack how our menstrual cycles influence libido, why stress and cortisol wreak havoc on desire, and the profound difference between arousal and desire (spoiler: most women experience arousal before desire, not the other way around).We're breaking down the myths Hollywood and pop culture have sold us about sex, exploring how communication can transform intimacy, and getting real about the physical and hormonal changes that happen during perimenopause and menopause. This isn't just about sex—it's about reclaiming pleasure, reducing shame, and understanding that your body isn't broken, it's just talking to you in a different language.In this episode we explore:How libido naturally shifts throughout the menstrual cycle and what that means for desireThe critical difference between arousal and desire—and why women typically need arousal firstWhy stress and cortisol are massive disruptors to sexual wellness and hormone balanceThe unrealistic expectations created by movies and porn—and why penetrative sex alone doesn't work for most womenHow to have conversations with your partner about changing needs without shame or blameThe impact of perimenopause and menopause on vaginal health, circulation, and pelvic floor tensionAbout Dr. Diane MuellerDr. Diane Mueller, ND, DAOM, is a seasoned sexual wellness authority, blending a strong educational foundation with a rich clinical and teaching experience.

If you’ve ever struggled with PMS, heavy periods, mood swings, or stubborn weight gain, you’re going to want to tune in—because estrogen dominance could be the culprit. Estrogen is an essential hormone that keeps your body running smoothly, but when it’s out of balance, things can get messy—fast. And here’s the kicker: estrogen dominance isn’t just about having “too much estrogen.” It’s about having too much in relation to progesterone or not clearing excess estrogen effectively. In this episode of Aligned Womb, Aligned You, I’m breaking down:🔥 What estrogen dominance actually is (it’s more than just high estrogen!)🔥 Why so many women—especially in perimenopause—are dealing with this imbalance🔥 The hidden connection between estrogen dominance, thyroid issues, weight gain, and mood swings🔥 How stress, poor detoxification, and xenoestrogens (hello, plastics and skincare products!) make things worse🔥 Simple, effective ways to balance estrogen naturally—from liver support to blood sugar management If you’re ready to take control of your hormones and stop feeling like a victim of your cycle, this episode is for you!

You’ve probably heard that you only need to worry about ovulation if you are trying to make a baby? Well, I’m here to tell you—it’s so much more than that. In this episode of Aligned Womb, Aligned You, we’re diving into the real truth about ovulation and why it’s one of the most crucial markers of your overall health (whether you want kids or not!). Most women were never taught that ovulation is the key to balanced hormones, energy, metabolism, and long-term health. Instead, we’ve been conditioned to believe that suppressing ovulation—through birth control, stress, or lifestyle factors—is no big deal. But here’s the thing: your menstrual cycle (including your ovulation) is your fifth vital sign and it plays a major role in everything from your mood to your bones to your heart health. In this episode, we’ll cover:💡 What actually happens when you ovulate (hint: it’s not just about getting pregnant)💡 Why ovulating regularly is essential for hormone balance, metabolism, and longevity💡 How birth control shuts down ovulation—and what that means for your health💡 Signs that you may not be ovulating (even if you have a period!)💡 Simple, actionable steps to support healthy ovulation at any stage of life If you’ve ever struggled with irregular cycles, burnout, PMS, or unexplained weight gain, this episode is a must-listen! 👉 Resources & Links: Learn more about cycle-syncing and hormone balance at SheeRevival.com Get my free guide: Maybe It’s Not You: The Truth About PMS & How to Take Back Control of Your Cycle Follow me @thealignedwomb on Instagram for more insights, tips, and support!
