The Spooky Side of Wellness: When Healing Gets Manipulative
Manage episode 516438907 series 3614819
Perimenopause and menopause aren’t personal failures—they’re biology. Yet too many programs prey on pain points with “balance your hormones” promises that don’t match the season your body is in. In this episode, I (Jess Milner—master nutritionist, functional bloodwork specialist, and quantum energy healer) break down the scary side of popular health offers so you can choose wisely, save money, and actually feel better.
We’ll cover:
Hormone hype vs. reality: why you can’t “balance” what’s no longer being produced—and what to support instead (adrenals, thyroid, liver/detox, nervous system, nutrients).
Excitement ≠ healing: event highs and spiritual “awakenings” can move energy, but lasting change comes from inner stillness and alignment.
One-size-fits-all red flags: how to spot gimmicks and find personalized support that brings you back to you, not into dependency.
A gentler roadmap: nourish what you have now, honor this life season, and let biology—not marketing—lead.
Before joining any program, ask:
Do I still make the hormones I’m trying to “balance”?
Does this focus on my adrenals/thyroid/liver/nervous system first?
Will this make me dependent—or more self-led?
Am I chasing an event high or choosing grounded change?
Does this practitioner teach integrity and embodiment over hype?
