Healthy 2025

Starting boot camp Jan 2025! I found this podcast and I’m so excited to hear how I can change my body without being prescribed birth control. I know there are more holistic ways to help my body and live a healthier lifestyle.

New To This

Happily Hormonal came across my instagram and I am so glad it did. It is giving me information that I have never been told. Just listened to Day 2 and cannot wait for the rest of this weeks episodes. I want to understand my body and make the right changes and this is my first step.

My favorite podcast!!

This podcast changed the trajectory of my life and I couldn’t be more thankful for Leisha and the information she shares. It’s always very applicable to every day life, thought-out, and easy to digest without making you feel overwhelmed. My hormones and overall health have benefited so much by listening to her advice and I know it will for anyone else who listens!
JAChristensen

Love this podcast!

The podcast is very informative and Leisha explains all things really well. There are interesting guests and great topics for women’s health!
CocoSprinkles

Such great info!

I am so grateful to have found such a valuable resource and wealth of knowledge on hormones and women’s health! I love how simply she puts things and her gentle approach to wellness!
ProtectOurPrivacyAndData

Hormones!

I recently started following Leisha and listening to her podcasts. She is a wealth of information and insight! Can’t wait to learn and implement her teachings.
herongray

Thank you, Leisha

This podcast has taught me so much about supporting my body and my health as a woman. Leisha’s recommendations just make sense, and I highly recommend that any woman - whether she considers herself to be struggling with her hormones or not - to give it a listen. This information should be widely accessible!
jen.lave

This is 40

I just started following Leisha and I’m currently signed up for her hormone balancing challenge that starts tomorrow (Jan 13th). So far I’m loving what I’m hearing and excited to learn more about balancing out my hormones!

Healthy Happy Mama

I found Leisha’s podcast when I was in a deep pit. I know more about my hormones, my cycle, and a healthier view of food and fueling my body. Leisha is personable, sweet, SMART, and wants to help women in the best way!
WelchP

Awesome podcast !

Leisha has opened my eyes on how much food and stress can have a huge impact on your hormones and the significant role hormone balance has on our day to day life and feelings . I am in the medical field and always thought PMS was normal…until I listened to Leisha! She gives great info on the “why” and clear steps on what to do to help you feel better not just temporarily but how to make feeling better sustainable !
JillianAnderson

Leisha’s wisdom understanding is so needed.

The work and wisdom that Leisha is sharing here is SO critical. We can choose, as women, to stay vial, nourished, and well. I think it’s time for more women to step into getting real data with HTMA testing and cut straight through the extra time second guessing to get laser focused. Excited to be here! — Jillian Xx
AshleyM442

So much wisdom!!

Leisha is full of so much wisdom. I love it! It’s amazing what I have learned about blood sugar and how there are just a few small daily steps to start feeling better in just a few days.
LaRee B

Nourishing, Healing, and Encouraging

She makes hormones make sense and the podcast episodes leave me feeling empowered and equipped to embrace my hormones. I am very thankful for this podcast!
Ree131088

Highly Recommend!

The Happily Hormonal podcast has been eye opening for me. I didn’t realize how little I understood about my hormones and cycle or how much I needed that information until I started listening to Leisha’s podcast. I’ve started implementing some of the simple, effective lifestyle changes, and I’m seeing improvement in some of my symptoms. I’ve recommended her podcast to friends and family.
em_suz

Action steps

I have learned so much from Happily Hormonal! The action steps Leisha gives makes implementing simple things into daily life simple. From daily sunshine to carrot salad, simple steps make hormone balance reachable.
DesireeRiane

So insightful!

Love hearing Leisha’s whole body approach to hormones. All broken down into bite sized, manageable steps! I’ve binged so many of her episodes!
eljayseen

The calm I need with trustworthy information

This is my go-to podcast for anything related to hormonal health! Leisha has this wonderful ability to somehow make you feel calm even though she’s talking very seriously about hormones! The episodes are actually fun to listen to, and I find the information to be incredibly helpful and not at all overwhelming. This is just what I needed! :)
ElizabethWBrown

Great Information!

LEK.21

Simple + Helpful

I have been listening to Leisha’s podcast for months now, and it has been so beneficial to my life, both personally and professionally. She has helped change my perspective on my body, how it is designed to work, and how to take better care of it. She presents simple, yet meaningful, tips to make big impacts on your body. Also, as a pelvic floor physical therapist, I have been able to pass along some of these tips to my clients and the knowledge has changed the way I care for my clients. Thank you, Leisha! Keep it up!
I4Detailz

Fantastic

I really enjoy this podcast and how Leisha breaks down her knowledge into bite sized chunks that are pleasant to listen to and easily to apply to your life, if you’re willing to take action!
KiraDB32

Great information!

I have LOVED listening to this podcast over the last year as I have begun to address hormone health in my own life. I finally feel like I understand my cycle and what’s going on in my body throughout the month. Leisha does a great job explaining the biology of what goes on in your body and gives solid tips on what to do to move forward. Thank you Leisha for what you do. Your passion is so evident and you work is making the world a better place!

RobJRob

Understandable & Practical!

I have told so many people about this podcast! Leisha does a fantastic job of making something overwhelming (like our hormones!) really understandable. AND she give’s practical action steps to incorporate into daily life. If I could only share one hormone resource, this podcast would be it!
grateful and grace-full

Finally!

Finally… Leisha spoke truth and wisdom into so many of the areas I have been struggling with and got right to the core issues! The content and messages of this podcast are not only transformative, but so relieving and hope-filled as I realize there’s someone who finally understands. She can pinpoint so many of the symptoms that are automatically dismissed or overlooked with standard doctors. For anyone pursuing wholistic health and hormonal balance, I highly recommend this podcast!
Leah Throm

Thank you!!

I have been working with a doctor for a year for various hormonal issues, digestive/gut mobility, and overall energy/PMS and bad period symptoms. I have learned more from Leisha in a month than I have from my functional medicine doctor in a year. I feel so empowered by Leisha to know and understand my own body, and have already made a few more life changes. I’m also looking for a new holistic doctor (or will work with Leisha!) to make more well rounded changes and understand my body better. Thank you Leisha!
Sillyjillian

So informative and inspiring!

I’m only 2 episodes in and I already love this podcast so much! So informative and entertaining, by helping explain our female biology in Lehmann’s terms. I already feel more empowered to help improve my hormones!
Krista Zerkow

Great Info for Beginners

This podcast has been so helpful and resourceful! In the past year I have begun searching for more information to balance hormones, transition to a nontoxic home, and holistic family health and this podcast includes all of those things! I can’t wait to listen to more episodes.

add ieoshkal

So simple yet so helpful!

Love this podcast and Leisha’s hormone program! She is so clear and breaks down the complicated details so it is easy to understand. I’m convinced that after being diagnosed with possible early menopause her program and coaching is the reason I am holding my 4 month old baby. Do yourself a favor and download the first episode!

This podcast seriously is life changing. I have tired in the past to balance my hormones and decrease PMS symptoms with less than ideal results.

I’m sleeping better than I have in years, my energy is returning and my moods are so much better. This podcast is amazing!!
