If you’ve been doing all the right things—eating better, working out, trying to sleep more—but still don’t feel good… this episode is for you.

This week on The Good Enough Mompreneur Podcast, Angela is joined by Dr. Tracy McCarthy, a board-certified psychiatrist, certified functional medicine physician, and the creator of the Natural Mood Solution online program. Tracy has helped thousands of patients get to the root causes of anxiety, depression, brain fog, fatigue, and hormonal imbalance using a holistic approach that finally puts your whole health at the center.

Whether you're navigating entrepreneurship, motherhood, or both, your nervous system, hormones, and gut health are deeply impacting your ability to thrive—and this episode unpacks it all.

If you’ve ever thought, “Why don’t I feel better?” or “Is this just how it’s supposed to be?”—this conversation will help you start asking better questions.

🔍 In This Episode, We Cover:

• What functional medicine actually is and how it differs from traditional healthcare
• How inflammation, nutrition, and gut health directly impact mental clarity, energy, and emotional stability
• Signs your nervous system and hormones are trying to tell you something
• The most overlooked causes of chronic symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, and mood swings
• How simple changes in diet, oils, and even breathwork can dramatically shift how you feel
• Why women need to stop measuring their productivity by masculine standards
• How to tune into your body’s rhythms for sustainable energy and aligned success

💡 Top 3 Takeaways:

1. You’re not broken. Chronic symptoms are often the result of multiple hidden stressors—nutritional, environmental, emotional—and they can be addressed.
2. Small steps matter. From cutting inflammatory oils to practicing breathwork, tiny shifts can lead to big changes in how you feel and function.
3. Functional medicine empowers you. It’s not about masking symptoms. It’s about getting curious, going deeper, and supporting your body’s natural healing capacity.
