Hey friend 💛 — it’s Amy, and today’s episode is such a special one because I got to sit down with the amazing Dr. Stephanie Gray. She is a natural health doctor who has such a gift for helping women understand their bodies instead of fighting against them.

We talked about sleep, stress, hormones, infertility, burnout, and why so many women feel like they’re doing “all the right things” but still feel exhausted, wired, and overwhelmed.

Dr. Gray explained how stress is one of the biggest hormone disruptors — especially how cortisol and progesterone fight against each other in the body. And if you’ve ever struggled with fertility or hormone swing, this part of the conversation is going to hit home for you.

We talked about what it looks like to heal not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually. Because your body doesn’t live in a vacuum — it holds onto your stress, your trauma, your pressure, and your pace of life.

One of my favorite parts of this conversation was how simple and practical she made everything feel. From creating a real sleep sanctuary, to supporting your liver, to understanding how deep healing requires slowing down — not pushing harder.

If you’ve ever felt:
• constant fatigue
• anxious for no clear reason
• stuck in burnout cycles
• hopeless about your hormone health

This episode is for you.

You are NOT broken.
Your body is not failing you.
It’s talking to you.

And this conversation is going to help you listen. 🤍
