Description
Are you tired of being told to "just manage stress" while your sleep, cycles, and fertility feel out of control? In this episode, Dr. Monica Minjeur is joined by Justin Hai, author of the upcoming book STRESS Nation, who unpacks how our tech-driven lives are disrupting cortisol—the master hormone—and what that means for women’s health. We talk about the overlooked ways cortisol imbalances are caused by poor sleep and our constantly digital world of 24/7 technology. We discuss how to truly reset your body’s stress response without jumping straight to medications.
This is a hopeful, science-backed conversation filled with practical tips for women in every stage of reproductive health—including those navigating perimenopause or recovering from burnout.
