After years of struggling with the side effects of hormonal birth control, painful periods, and hormone imbalances, Emily has made it her mission to help women reclaim their cycles and feel at home in their bodies again. Together, they unpack the biggest myths about women’s health — from the lie that PMS is “normal” to the overlooked truth that food, stress, and daily habits play a bigger role in hormone balance than most women have ever been taught. But this isn’t just a takedown of the pill and the medical system. It’s a hopeful conversation filled with practical tips and empowering science that every woman deserves to know.  If you’ve ever felt trapped by your period, out of sync with your body, or dismissed by a doctor, this conversation will leave you with practical tips to feel better and live in rhythm with your cycle.  Episode Resources: Emily Detrick:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/littleraeofhealth/?hl=en Free Hormone Balancing Masterclass: https://view.flodesk.com/pages/6439613b862117c7c074011e The Little Rae of Health Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-little-rae-of-health-podcast/id1675991986 Explore more from Primally Pure: Shop: https://bit.ly/4e1HzVv Blog: https://bit.ly/4gAeIsY Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/primallypure TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@primallypure?lang=en Resources + Studies Mentioned in This Episode Skovlund CW, Mørch LS, Kessing LV, Lidegaard Ø.
