Latest Highlight Reel: Listener-Favorite Conversations on Hormones, Healing, Functional Medicine & Low-Tox Living

EPISODE #105 — AUG 14, 2026

Latest Highlight Reel: Listener-Favorite Conversations on Hormones, Healing, Functional Medicine...
Tanya Ellie, Functional Practitioner & Health Coach

In this episode, we’re looking back at some of the most-listened-to podcast conversations over the past few months. We talked about how your past life experiences can physically shape your body, why getting back to the foundations changed the way I approach my own health, what healthy female hormone function actually looks like, and why postpartum symptoms aren't always something we should simply accept as "normal." We also get into how to use functional lab testing strategically, simple ways to reduce toxin exposure at home, and why doing more in the name of wellness isn't always better. Whether you’re new to the podcast or have been listening for a while, I hope you find a new perspective (or reminder) in this highlights episode.
