I'm Hormonal | Hormone balance, gut health & nutrition insights
Welcome to I’m Hormonal — the podcast where we make sense of your bloating, brutal PMS, and missing periods… without blaming it all on “just stress” or “being a woman.” Hosted by Bridget Walton, Women’s Hormone Coach, this show is your no-BS guide to decoding your cycle, calming your gut, and actually balancing your hormones (not just crossing your fingers and hoping for the best). Each week, we break down what no one taught you about hormones, nutrition, and gut health in your 30s — especially if you're tired of guessing what your body is trying to tell you. Expect solo episodes packed with real talk and root-cause tools, plus the occasional expert guest to help you feel less confused and more in control. Because you deserve better periods, better digestion, and a better shot at getting pregnant — without burning out trying to figure it all out alone.

We explore the psychological trap of believing "I've tried everything" and how this mindset prevents many women from finding solutions to their hormone health issues. The 100-day follicle development cycle means many women don't give interventions enough time to work before abandoning them.

Our bodies often send signals that we misinterpret as a lack of discipline or willpower, when in fact they are important communications about hormonal needs and imbalances.

Fighting hormone imbalance isn't about willpower or discipline – it's about understanding what your body truly needs and addressing the root causes disrupting your hormonal health. Willpower isn't always what's missing when you struggle to meet health goals.
