Our hormones and gut health are at the core of how we feel, think, and function every single day—but most of us were never taught how to properly support them. When imbalanced, they can leave us feeling sluggish, bloated, anxious, and completely disconnected from our bodies.

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Registered Nurse Angel Turlington to dive deep into hormone disruptors, gut health, and simple steps to detox your body naturally. Angel shares how common household toxins, stress, and food choices can throw your body off balance—and what you can do to take back control. Whether you’ve been struggling with unexplained symptoms or just want to optimize your health, this conversation is full of eye-opening insights and practical changes you can make today.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • What endocrine disruptors are and how they mess with your hormones
  • The most common toxins hiding in your food, water, and personal care products
  • How gut health directly impacts hormones, digestion, and mental clarity
  • Why traditional medical tests might not be giving you the full picture
  • Easy swaps and lifestyle changes to reduce toxin exposure and support your body naturally
  • The one thing Angel recommends doing first if you’re overwhelmed by all the health advice out there
