Plastics are deeply woven into the fabric of our everyday lives—from the water bottles we sip from to the skincare products we apply, and even the yoga pants we wear. But beneath this modern convenience lies an alarming truth: plastics are loaded with hormone-disrupting chemicals that may be sabotaging your fertility, energy, mood, and overall health.
In this powerful and eye-opening episode, I share Elena's real-life story of how eliminating plastic exposure for just 30 days dramatically improved her hormone balance, energy, skin, and sleep—and ultimately helped her conceive naturally after 3 years of trying.

Elena’s story isn’t an outlier. While total plastic elimination isn’t realistic, small, strategic changes can create measurable improvements. The goal isn't perfection—it’s reducing your body’s toxic load so it can heal, balance, and thrive.
