We talk a lot about relationships on this podcast. But what if the relationship that needs the most healing… is the one you have with your own body? In this episode, Kate sits down with naturopathic doctor and women’s health expert Dr. Sonya Jensen, author of Heal Your Hormones and Reclaim Yourself, to explore the powerful connection between hormonal health and the way we show up in love. Because hormones don’t just affect your cycle. They impact your mood. Your libido. Your energy. Your patience. Your capacity to communicate. Your ability to feel safe, open, and connected. And so many women are navigating burnout, anxiety, irritability, or emotional shutdown - without realizing their bodies are under chronic stress. Together, Kate and Dr. Sonya unpack: • how stress and over-functioning disrupt hormonal balance • why high-achieving women are especially vulnerable to depletion • the link between cortisol, nervous system regulation, and intimacy • how to support your hormones naturally • and why healing your body changes the way you relate to your partner This conversation is both science-forward and deeply empowering. Because when you heal your hormones, you don’t just feel better physically. You become more present. More grounded. More receptive. More you. And that transforms your relationships. If you’ve been feeling “off,” reactive, exhausted, or disconnected - this episode will help you understand what’s really happening beneath the surface. Your body isn’t sabotaging your relationship. She may just be asking for support.
