Balancing Hormones Naturally

The healing journey doesn’t have a finish line. And sometimes the hardest part isn’t the protocol, it’s what happens in your head when things don’t go the way you planned. Leah shares the full story of how she got here, from fibroadenomas and painful irregular cycles to minerals, mold, and becoming an NLP practitioner.

In this episode:
  • Why Leah’s healing journey started with a golf ball sized lump and a breast cancer family history on both sides.

  • The years of going in circles with functional doctors, naturopaths, and specialists who each had one answer that never quite fit.

  • What actually worked after six months of implementing the right foundations, regulated cycles, raised progesterone, painless periods, and a positive pregnancy test.

  • Why discovering minerals postpartum was the missing puzzle piece that made her fibroadenomas completely disappear.

  • The mold in the basement, the joint pain at 30, and how it knocked her labs sideways even as a practitioner who knew exactly what was happening.

  • Why she sent her own labs to another practitioner instead of reading them herself, and what that taught her about staying objective in your own health.

  • The note her husband left her that made her cry in the shower and gave her the next step she needed.

  • How the mold experience led her directly to becoming an NLP practitioner and why she brought it into the Hormone Reset Program.

  • Why telling yourself “I am healed, I am amazing” doesn’t work and what actually rewires the subconscious.

  • The small daily shifts that make the big changes, noticing the good, not letting a bad day mean anything, and treating feedback as just feedback.

  • Why nothing is an emergency and how that one reframe changes everything about how you show up for your kids, your business, and your health.

  • Why you need someone else to hold the bird’s eye view for you, because even practitioners get lost in their own weeds.
You don’t have to figure everything out. You just have to take the next best step.

Five years ago, I found out I had fibroadenomas (benign breast tumors), which 90% of the time return after surgical removal. I decided not to undergo the operation and instead found a way to heal the underlying cause. After years of extreme pain, irregular cycles, and ovarian cysts, I finally learned how to balance my hormones which healed my fibroadenomas and led me to regular, pain-free periods. 


I learned how to make lifestyle shifts, remove toxins from my environment, and give my body what it actually needs to function optimally and heal on a cellular level. After my experience, I became a Functional Diagnostic Nutritional® Practitioner so that I can empower women in their own holistic health journey.


Even if you’ve been told your labs are normal or that your symptoms aren’t a cause for concern - YOU are the expert of your body and your experience. You deserve to feel AMAZING, not just “normal”. I’m here to help you achieve optimal overall health through simple, straightforward lifestyle changes that you can start to implement today. 


Balancing Hormones Naturally isn’t just the name of the podcast, it’s the way forward to a happier, healthier life and I can’t wait to join you on the journey!
