info_outlineWe’ve been taught that “good women” keep up with their Pap smears, mammograms, and hormone therapy. But what if those routines (sold as prevention) are actually creating stress in the body’s terrain? In this episode, I break down how each of these pillars of women’s healthcare functions on a biological level, what they miss, and how to reclaim your health sequence: drainage before detection, regulation before replacement, resilience before results. This is prevention through sovereignty, not compliance.
