  Sep 24, 202613 min

  In this episode of the Hope Natural Health Podcast, Dr. Erin Ellis breaks down the viral "cortisol cocktail" trend, separates the myths of "adrenal fatigue" from real HPA axis dysregulation, and explains what is actually causing that persistent tired-but-wired exhaustion so many women experience.

  Episode 246: The Fertility Tests Most Doctors Never Run with Dr.  Aumatma Simmons

  Sep 17, 202632 min

  In this episode of the Hope Natural Health Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Aumatma Simmons, a double board-certified naturopathic endocrinologist who has specialized in fertility for nearly 20 years. We talk about the factors that can be missed in a conventional fertility workup, including thyroid and autoimmune issues, sperm DNA fragmentation, blood sugar and insulin regulation, gut inflammation, and the vaginal microbiome. Dr. Simmons also explains why recurrent pregnancy loss isn't always a female fertility issue, how male factors can contribute, and why looking beyond basic sperm analysis may be important. In this episode, you will learn: Why recurrent pregnancy loss may involve more than genetics How thyroid, autoimmune, and metabolic factors can affect fertility Why sperm DNA fragmentation and male fertility factors matter How gut and vaginal microbiome health may influence pregnancy outcomes The difference between genetic, epigenetic, and chromosomal factors How targeted testing, sleep, and melatonin can support a more comprehensive fertility approach Connect with Dr. Aumatma Simmons Learn more about Dr. Aumatma Simmons and her work in fertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, and root-cause fertility care: Madre Fertility: https://www.madrefertility.com/ Holistic Fertility Institute: https://holisticfertilityinstitute.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/holisticfertilitydoctor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aumatma/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrAumatmaNd For more on Dr. Erin: Join The Hope Circle Community: https://hormonehealingproject.drerinellis.com/communities/groups/the-hope-circle/home?invite=69120d498b7e3f60397656b8 Work with Dr. Erin here: https://p.bttr.to/3E88ps4 Buy Dr. Erin's Supplements here: https://drerinellis.com/shop Get the Period Productivity Planner here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BBYBRT5Q?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Download the FREE Menstrual Cycle Nutrition Guide here: https://detox.drerinellis.com/ Watch The Free Video "7 Hormones Affecting Your Weight Loss Goals" here: https://weightloss.drerinellis.com/ Let's Be Friends: Follow Dr. Erin on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.erinellis/ Follow Dr. Erin on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drerinellisnmd Follow Dr. Erin on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.erinellis?lang=en Join the Free Hope Circle Community: https://hormonehealingproject.drerinellis.com/communities/groups/the-hope-circle/home?invite=69120d498b7e3f60397656b8 Bookmark Dr. Erin's Website: www.drerinellis.com Subscribe to Hope Natural Health on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChHYVmNEu5tKu91EATHhEiA Follow Hope Natural Health on FB: https://www.facebook.com/hopenaturalhealth Sign up for Newsletters here: https://booking.hopenaturalhealth.com/widget/form/VUubL7MNYELduwQL8ssI

  Episode 245: Why You're Still Bloated Even When You're Doing Everything Right with Megan Gerber

  Sep 10, 202630 min

  In this episode of the Hope Natural Health Podcast, Dr. Erin Ellis sits down with Megan Gerber , a functional nutrition and gut health practitioner, to explore why bloating, constipation, reflux, and other digestive symptoms may not be solely about what you eat. They discuss the often-overlooked connection between chronic stress, nervous system regulation, digestion, and the body's ability to heal. Megan explains why constantly adding supplements, restrictive diets, and gut protocols may sometimes keep you stuck, and why addressing nervous system safety and foundational needs can be an important part of a root-cause approach. In This Episode, You Will Learn: How chronic stress can affect digestion, motility, and nutrient absorption Why bloating, constipation, reflux, and abdominal discomfort may be connected to nervous system regulation Why treating gut symptoms without addressing potential root causes can lead to recurring problems How doing "all the things" for your gut can sometimes increase stress and keep you stuck Why individualized care and focusing on key "needle movers" can be more effective than trying every protocol How nervous system hypervigilance can influence the way you respond to digestive symptoms What low stomach acid can look like and how it may affect digestion and nutrient absorption Connect with Megan Gerber: Take the FREE "Why Am I STILL So Bloated?" Quiz: Visit Megan's website and take the quiz to learn more about what may be contributing to your bloating.

  Sep 3, 202612 min

  In this episode of the Hope Natural Health Podcast , Dr. Erin Ellis talks about why so many women dread Pap smears and how a difficult or painful past experience can lead to years of avoidance.

  Episode 243: Why Chronic Stress Is Aging You Faster Than You Think

  Aug 27, 202633 min

  In this episode of the Hope Natural Health Podcast, Dr. Erin Ellis talks with Shari B. Kaplan, a trauma-informed psychotherapist specializing in integrative mental health, about the biology of chronic stress and unresolved trauma, why high-functioning people may not recognize how stressed they really are, and what it takes to help the nervous system move out of survival mode. Shari shares her Repair, Release, Reorganize, Rebuild framework, explaining how she approaches trauma without requiring people to repeatedly relive painful experiences. She also discusses the importance of starting slowly, creating sustainable changes, and looking at the whole person, including their biology, relationships, beliefs, behaviors, and environment. They also explore Shari AI, the clinical AI tool Shari created to provide support between therapy sessions, and why technology should support human connection rather than replace it. In This Episode, You'll Learn: How chronic stress and unresolved trauma can affect the body over time Why high-functioning people may have difficulty recognizing their own stress What fight, flight, and freeze can look like in the body Why "start low and go slow" matters when making changes Shari's Repair, Release, Reorganize, Rebuild framework Why mental health care should consider the whole human ecosystem How connection, belonging, and safe relationships support healing Where AI can fit into mental health support, and where human connection remains essential Connect with Shari B.
