Feeling burned out, bloated, or stuck in survival mode—even though you’re “doing everything right”? You’re not alone, and it’s not you—it’s your hormones.

In this empowering conversation, Heather Allmendinger, Founder of Vivydus — The Full of Life Company and Host of Embracing Flow, sits down with Chelsea McLeod, corporate-executive-turned-hormonal-health-coach and creator of The Healthy Hustle Method.

If you’ve ever thought your body was broken, this episode will remind you it’s not—it’s communicating. Learn how to listen, heal, and thrive in every phase of womanhood.

About Chelsea Mcleod

I had to heal myself before I could help other women heal. Ran myself into the ground in corporate for a decade before healing my insomnia, PCOS, high cortisol, and gut issues. From there, I helped family and friends heal after going back to school for integrative health to become a practitioner. Quit my job as a digital director at a publicly traded company when my side hustle scaled too fast. Now I've helped over 200 women heal.
