From Hormones to Habits: Women’s Health with Lindsay Manzlak
Description
In this episode, we’re joined by Lindsay Manzlak of Wednesday Wellness to dig into the real conversations around women’s health that often go unspoken. From hormone therapy to healthcare frustrations, we explore how women can take ownership of their well-being and advocate for care that actually works for them — not just what's covered by insurance.
We talk about shifting from “sick care” to true wellness, the importance of personalized care, and why your habits (like sleep and movement) can matter just as much as your hormones. Whether you’re approaching perimenopause or just trying to get answers from your doctor, Lindsay brings clarity, compassion, and practical insight.
