Dr Izzy Smith

Get ready for an inspiring conversation with Dr. Izzy Smith, an accomplished Endocrinologist based in Sydney. After experiencing burnout following her basic physician exams, Izzy took a year off clinical medicine, a decision that led her to rediscover her passion for health and wellness. During her break, she began writing insightful blogs on Instagram and connecting with fellow health professionals, which ultimately led her to specialise in Endocrinology.Izzy realised this field was the perfect blend of her love for medicine and her deep interest in the role lifestyle factors—such as exercise, nutrition, and mental health—play in overall well-being. Now working exclusively in private practice, she finds immense joy in helping others achieve better health outcomes.Izzy opens up about the intersection of physical and mental health, the importance of lifestyle in managing endocrine conditions, and the common misconceptions she encounters in her field. We also explore how endocrine disorders affect men and women differently, and she shares her honest insights on the birth control pill and navigating synthetic hormones. This conversation is raw, insightful, and packed with practical wisdom on medicine, movement, and mental well-being.Izzy Instagram https://www.instagram.com/doctorizzyksmith?igsh=b2Y0bDd4MDV3eW5zHannah - HeyHelloPod Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/heyhellopodcast_?igsh=cTFpaWZka2I2OWhs&utm_source=qrEmail [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
