What happens when chronic stress quietly rewires our hormones—and we’re told to just “push through it”?

In this episode of Rooted & Wild, we’re joined by Eva Angeloff, founder of Women’s Lib, for a candid conversation about stress chemistry, hormonal imbalance, and why so many women are living disconnected from their energy, vitality, and desire.

Eva shares the deeply personal moment that sparked Women’s Lib in the summer of 2022—when her own low energy no longer aligned with the demands of daily life. What began as a private reckoning quickly revealed itself as a collective experience. Through intimate and public conversations, Eva discovered that countless women were navigating the same terrain: fatigue, diminished desire, mood shifts, and a quiet resignation that this was “just how it is.”

Together, we explore how stress impacts hormonal signaling and why restoring balance requires more than willpower. Eva breaks down the science and intention behind Women’s Lib’s all-natural, research-backed botanical formula, designed to support women at the root level:

• Tongkat Ali — supports healthy free testosterone levels by releasing bound testosterone, which may help improve energy, vitality, mood, and intimate desire
• Shatavari — an Ayurvedic adaptogen that binds to estradiol receptors to help naturally balance estrogen, supporting mood stability, energy, comfort, and long-term organ health
• Epimedium (Horny Goat Weed) — enhances blood flow by gently relaxing blood vessels and smooth muscle, supporting arousal, comfort, and overall reproductive wellness

This conversation isn’t about quick fixes or forcing outcomes. It’s about understanding the body’s chemistry, honoring stress signals, and reclaiming agency through informed, intentional support.

Eva currently lives in Los Angeles with her husband and three children and is on a mission to make women’s hormone health both accessible and normalized—without shame, bypassing, or dismissal.
