When Audrey Gerber got her first period, it was chaos—painful, unpredictable, and isolating. Like so many young girls, she was handed a prescription for the pill and told it would “fix” things. It didn’t.
Years later, struggling with depression, weight gain, and confusion about what was happening in her body, Audrey began to ask the question most of us are never encouraged to ask:
What if my body isn’t broken? What if it’s trying to tell me something?
That question led her on a journey that would change everything—not just for herself, but for countless women she now helps as an integrative health coach and herbalist. In this powerful conversation, Audrey and I talk about what happens when we stop silencing our symptoms and start listening to the wisdom of our hormones.
This episode isn’t just for women—it’s for anyone who loves, supports, or raises them.
The hidden connection between stress, hormones, and how we show up in life
Why your menstrual cycle is more than “that time of the month”
How shame and silence keep women suffering unnecessarily
What happens when we stop seeing our bodies as broken and start working with them
How understanding your hormonal rhythm can change your physical and emotional health
“I suffered for years for a resolution that took two months—just because I finally understood what my body needed.” — Audrey Gerber
