For years, I felt "trapped" in my own body—struggling with a metabolic fog, GI issues, and hormonal imbalances while following a plant-based tradition. At 55, I am finally thriving post-menopause without BHRT, caffeine, or supplements, but it took decoding my nutrigenetics to understand why.

In this episode, I share the "aha" moments from my DNA reports that explained my struggles with vitamin A conversion, B12 deficiency, and more.
