Still in the Chaos

In this episode, I get to chat with Nurse Practitioner/ Midwife Melinda Rhodes of Rho Wellness. I found Melinda when I was on the hunt for a functional medicine provider to regulate my periods. We talk about PMS symptoms that seem "normal", hormones, irregular periods, iron deficiency, and how nutrition, exercise & stress plays into it all. I pray this episode gives you perspective and hope for whatever health struggles you may be facing! Rho Wellness www.rhowellness.com @rhowellness

Today's episode is about my health/iron journey & how it ties into advocating for yourself. Through years of therapy & life coaching, I have broken old ways of thinking about pushing down my God-given intuition. There is power in advocating for yourself, whatever it may be that you're struggling with. I hope and pray that this episode helps you take a step towards choosing to advocate for yourself.

This episode is an Intro to season 2. How to be the light in a darkness, depression/anxiety & how to combat all of it.
