Ep 35 - Women’s Health, Hormones, and Learning to Advocate for Your Body with Micaela Riley

Micaela Riley is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and Women’s Health Educator based in Kansas City. In this conversation, she shares her personal journey through hormone imbalances, PCOS, Hashimoto’s, and years of feeling dismissed by traditional care before finding answers through functional health. We talk about birth control, cortisol and stress, functional lab testing, and why so many women are told their labs are “normal” even when they don’t feel well. This episode explores how to better understand your body, ask better questions, and take a more informed, proactive approach to women’s health, hormones, and long-term wellbeing.
