Maintaining a healthy alignment with our bodies so often comes back to keeping things balanced and our hormones are no different.
Dr. Felice Gersh is dedicated to helping women navigate life in an optimal way, particularly when it comes to the roles hormones play in aging. She joins this conversation to discuss her philosophy on how women can approach supporting their hormonal systems in a variety of ways.
