In this episode of Recovered Life, Chelsea Anderson is joined by Dr. Charity Lenhoff, a Women’s Health Chiropractor and Pelvic Floor Specialist from Tucson, Arizona. Dr. Charity serves at The Source Chiropractic Tucson and her private practice, Awakened Wombs.

In March 2023, the Washington Post published an article titled “Women Are Getting Off Birth Control Amid Misinformation Explosion”. In this article, MDs and other “health care” professionals attempted to discredit the idea that birth control has any negative impact on women’s health or fertility.

Dr. Charity’s story provides a much more empowering perspective. In this episode, she shares parts of her personal journey that are all too common for women- her struggle with self-confidence, silencing of her voice, and disconnection from her womb space due to years spent on hormonal birth control. 

The conversation ends with a beautiful account of Dr. Charity’s decision to get off birth control and reconnect with her voice, her sacred womb space, and herself.
