Hormones & Hot Takes

What if the biggest thing holding you back... ...isn't your past? What if it's the story you've been telling yourself about your past? In this episode, we dive into one of the most honest conversations we've had yet. From toxic relationships and heartbreak to trauma, healing, and motherhood, we're talking about how the thoughts we believe about ourselves quietly shape our identity, our relationships, and the decisions we make every single day. Because sometimes... The hardest person to convince isn't everyone else. It's ourselves. Along the way (because... rabbit trails 🐇), we also talk...

Hormones & Hot Takes

We honestly weren't planning to start a podcast that day. We jumped on a Zoom call to catch up, talk about life, and somehow ended up discussing makeup, hormones, nutrition, women's health... and about fifty other rabbit trails. About twenty minutes into the conversation, Lori said... "We should probably just hit record." So we did. And this is what happened. Welcome to Hormones & Hot Takes. This first episode is exactly what this podcast is all about. No script. No fancy studio. No pretending we've got it all figured out. Just two friends having the conversations we were already having...

Hormones & Hot Takes

Welcome to Hormones & Hot Takes! We're Lori and Carrie. Two friends who realized we were already having the conversations women needed to hear... so we finally decided to hit record. Every week, you'll pull up a chair while we talk about all the things we wish someone would've told us years ago. Hormones. Perimenopause. Healthy aging. Marriage. Motherhood. Faith. Mindset. Nutrition. Business. Relationships. And all the rabbit trails in between. Some episodes we'll laugh until we cry. Some episodes will challenge the way you think. Some episodes we'll bring in incredible experts. And some...

Hormones & Hot Takes

Ever found yourself standing in the middle of the room wondering why you walked in there? Snapping at your kids for absolutely no reason? Feeling exhausted, anxious, achy... and wondering if you're just supposed to accept that because you're getting older? Yeah... Let's talk about that. In this episode, Carrie shares her personal journey through perimenopause and the symptoms that completely caught her off guard. From brain fog and anxiety to joint pain, irritability, and wondering if she was literally losing her mind, we dive into the things so many women experience but rarely talk about....

Hormones & Hot Takes

How many times have you told yourself... "I'm just getting older." "I'm probably just stressed." "This is just part of being a woman." What if your body has actually been trying to tell you something all along? In this episode, we continue our conversation about hormones, perimenopause, and healthy aging, but we go even deeper into something every woman needs to hear: Start paying attention to your body. We talk about why so many women ignore the warning signs, how we're learning to become our own health advocates, and why there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to hormones,...

Welcome to Hormones & Hot Takes!

We're Lori and Carrie.

Two friends who realized we were already having the conversations women needed to hear... so we finally decided to hit record.

Every week, you'll pull up a chair while we talk about all the things we wish someone would've told us years ago.

Hormones.

Perimenopause.

Healthy aging.

Marriage.

Motherhood.

Faith.

Mindset.

Nutrition.

Business.

Relationships.

And all the rabbit trails in between.

Some episodes we'll laugh until we cry.

Some episodes will challenge the way you think.

Some episodes we'll bring in incredible experts.

And some days it'll simply feel like you're sitting around the kitchen table with two friends, a cup of coffee, and a conversation you didn't even know you needed.

We're not trying to be perfect.

We're recording this in real life.

Lori has four kids, so don't be surprised if you hear little voices in the background every now and then. Life happens around here, and honestly... we wouldn't have it any other way.

Our goal isn't to tell you what to think.

It's to ask better questions.

To challenge what we've always been told.

To share what we're learning.

To laugh a lot.

And to invite you into the conversation.

Because the truth is...

We're just two ordinary women on a journey to learn how to become healthier physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

And we'd love for you to come along with us as we figure this whole womanhood thing out together.

So grab your coffee...

Pull up a chair...

And join us every Tuesday for honest conversations, practical wisdom, plenty of laughs, and probably a few hot takes.

We're so glad you're here.

Welcome to Hormones & Hot Takes.

And one last thing...

If you ever see us out in the wild because of this podcast, please come say hi.

We would absolutely love to meet you.

We'll see you in the first episode. ❤️
