We all go through seasons of growth and realignment, trying to stay grounded, build discipline, and stay true to ourselves. Every week, I’ll share honest conversations and reflections around faith, identity, discipline, purpose, health and everything in between. Sometimes it’s just me talking about what I’m learning, and other times I’ll sit down with people who inspire me to think deeper and live better. Some episodes will challenge you. Others will bring peace. But every one of them is here to remind you that you’re not alone, and that growth is never perfect, it’s personal. Welcome to Being Human with Leana Deeb.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-12T10:18:40.772498+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/being-human-with-leana-deeb-7817511"},"episode":{"title":"The Health Journey Nobody Believed: PCOS, Hair Loss, Hypothyroidism & Building Milamend with Mila Magnani","slug":"the-health-journey-nobody-believed-pcos-hair-loss-hypothyroidism-building-milamend-with-mila-magnani","published_at":"2026-06-11T21:17:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/being-human-with-leana-deeb-7817511/the-health-journey-nobody-believed-pcos-hair-loss-hypothyroidism-building-milamend-with-mila-magnani","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/being-human-with-leana-deeb-7817511","url":"https://pdst.fm/e/claritaspod.com/measure/pscrb.fm/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/p969720/traffic.megaphone.fm/PNO8592286555.mp3","audio_url":"https://pdst.fm/e/claritaspod.com/measure/pscrb.fm/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/p969720/traffic.megaphone.fm/PNO8592286555.mp3","summary":"In this debut episode of Being Human, Leana sits down with Mila Magnani, founder of Milamend, for a vulnerable conversation about PCOS and hormone imbalance. Mila opens up about spending years living in a body nobody took seriously. From stealing her dad's razor blades before school to manage facial hair, to passing out in SoulCycle at 16, to a Paris doctor telling her to simply \"eat less and move more\" after years of suffering. She shares how she took her healing into her own hands, built her own supplement protocol from scratch, and accidentally built a business that reached $250,000 in sales in a single week. This one is for every woman who has ever been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told that what she is feeling is normal.
