Losing weight and improving PCOS symptoms all came down to this...
We can often get caught up trying so hard to do everything perfectly, giving 100%, but as soon as we're not hitting that mark, we feel like we've failed, or as our PCOS patient Lily puts it, 'fallen off the wagon'.After struggling with the healthcare system, Lily took matters into her own hands and started our program.

Thank you
I appreciate all of the info you being to educate us!!
Glad it exists but not enough info
I’m glad there’s a podcast like this, dedicated to pcos that doesn’t seem to endorse the pseudo-science that other similar podcasts do. But there also isn’t enough info in these podcasts. I haven’t really heard actual advice given, and it seems like they do that on purpose to tempt you to buy the protocol, which I find really predatory. The lack of ACTUAL details about this protocol online and in their own social media makes me think that it wouldn’t be any different than most of the reasonable advice given elsewhere for free (balance protein and slow-digesting carbs, exercise, and take well studied supplements like inositol).
Best PCOS Podcast
I’ve listened to all the PCOS podcasts out there, and this one is the best! Evidence based informed that’s presented in easily digestible episodes. I love Clare and how she educates woman with empowerment.
