In this episode of The Wellness Verdict, Whitney sits down with Dr. Rachel Marynowski, a licensed naturopathic doctor and co-founder of Kale Blossom, to talk about what’s really behind the burnout so many moms are feeling — and why conventional medicine is missing the mark on women’s health.

Dr. Kale unpacks the root causes of thyroid issues, hormonal imbalances, and postnatal depletion — and why these issues are now showing up in teenage girls. She explains how beauty products, chronic stress, nutrient deficiencies, and toxic household exposures are affecting women and families, and what we can do to take back control of our health without chasing perfection.

You’ll also hear her take on hormone replacement therapy, GLP-1 weight loss drugs, and the real reason moms are breaking down — plus how to start cleaning up your home, diet, and mental load in small, sustainable steps.

💡 Key Topics Covered:

  • Why thyroid issues are showing up in teenage girls
  • What toxins in skincare and fragrance do to your hormones
  • How to reduce your family’s toxic load without guilt
  • The real root of burnout, stress, and postnatal depletion
  • Why conventional doctors are overlooking key lab tests
  • Frustration with birth control & being dismissed by OB-GYNs
  • Her take on GLP-1s (like Ozempic) and hormone replacement therapy
  • Why every mom needs support, not shame — and how community heals
  • Healthy home tips for reducing decision fatigue and daily overwhelm

This episode is for any mom who’s feeling depleted, unheard, or overwhelmed — and wants practical, low-toxic living tips that actually work. It’s real talk about holistic health for families, from a doctor who’s also a mom of six.
