This Is Woman's Work with Nicole Kalil Don’t Let Your Doctor Kill You: The New Hormone Solution with Dr. Erika Schwartz | 305
Feeling exhausted, anxious, bloated, foggy, or just off—and being told “it’s normal” because you’re aging or just a woman? Yeah, no. It’s not normal. And it’s definitely not something you have to accept.
In this eye-opening episode, I’m joined by Dr. Erika Schwartz, a pioneer in bio-identical hormone therapy and founder of Evolved Science, where she’s flipping traditional medicine on its outdated, symptom-chasing head. With over 30 years of experience, eight best-selling books, and a global reputation for helping people reclaim their health, Dr. Erika is here to tell us: your hormones matter. And ignoring them could be the reason you feel like garbage—even if all your labs come back “normal.”
We’re talking real solutions, not band-aids. Actual prevention, not prescriptions. And a whole new way of thinking about what your body needs to thrive—especially as you age.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ Why traditional medicine is failing women—especially around hormones
✅ The truth about hormone imbalance (and how to fix it)
✅ What bio-identical hormone therapy really is—and why it matters
✅ Signs your hormones are out of whack (that your doctor might miss)
✅ How to advocate for yourself in a medical system that often won’t
✅ What true health optimization looks like (spoiler: not another pill)
It’s time to stop accepting exhaustion as a fact of life and start demanding answers—and better care. Because your hormones aren’t the problem. They’re the starting point to feeling like yourself again.
