How Gut Health Impacts Hormones, Energy & Healthy Aging | Dr. Jessica Hoogendoorn

If you've been feeling exhausted, inflamed, bloated, or like your body isn't responding the way it used to, this conversation is for you. As women move through perimenopause and beyond, many of the strategies that once worked simply stop delivering the same results. The good news? Your body isn't working against you—it may just need a different approach. In this episode of Empower Her Radio, Dr. Corey Winn sits down with naturopathic physician, master herbalist, and Eat2Live founder Dr. Jessica Hoogendoorn to explore one of the most overlooked foundations of women's health: the gut. Together, they unpack how gut health influences energy, hormones, inflammation, skin health, immunity, mood, and overall vitality—and why supporting your body from the inside out creates lasting change. You'll also learn: • Why gut health affects far more than digestion • Common habits that quietly contribute to inflammation • How to simplify supplements and focus on what actually matters • The connection between nutrition (especially protein), hormones, and healthy aging • Why what you put on your body matters just as much as what you put in it • Practical ways to begin supporting your health without feeling overwhelmed Whether you're navigating perimenopause, looking for more energy, or simply wanting to feel like yourself again, this conversation offers practical, evidence-informed guidance you can begin applying today.
