What does it take to break free from conventional medical norms and truly advocate for your health? In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano and Dee Davidson unpack the transformative journey of reclaiming health through functional medicine. Their discussion pulls back the curtain on the ways traditional healthcare often overlooks individual needs, especially for women facing unique challenges like hormone imbalances and perimenopause. How can you ensure that your body’s signals aren’t dismissed—and instead, become your most powerful guide?

Dee Davidson brings insight into the world of functional health, sharing strategies for building a personalized approach that connects mind, body, and spirit. Together, they discuss why it’s crucial to navigate health with a deep understanding of your identity, emotional well-being, and the hidden stressors that often go ignored. If stress is manifesting as physical issues, how can you begin to unpack the root causes?

This conversation inspires us to question how we can regain control, tap into resilience, and invite positive change into our wellness journeys.
