Summary
What if anxiety isn't just a serotonin problem? 🤍 In this episode, we're having one of the most important — and honest — conversations we've had yet. We're talking about SSRIs. Not from a place of shame. Not from an anti-medication stance. But from a place of informed, root-cause healing. Why do so many women stay on these medications long term? What is serotonin actually doing in the body? And could inflammation, gut health, minerals, sunlight, or even unresolved stress be part of the bigger picture? We unpack the gut-brain connection 🧠, emotional dulling, weight gain, dopamine shifts — and what might be missing from the conversation. If you've ever thought, "This helps… but I still don't feel like myself," this episode is for you. You deserve the full story. Book a Free Clarity Call . We'd love to talk to you!
