Feeling exhausted or disconnected from your body—even when you’re “doing everything right?” K+L sit down with DailyBasis founders Izzy Fischer + Sophie Allen, alongside board-certified OBGYN Christy Evans, for an eye-opening conversation about the hidden health struggles impacting millions of women.



From eating disorders + chronic stress to hormone imbalances + cycle syncing, they unpack why so many women feel dismissed by the healthcare system—and how understanding your menstrual cycle can completely change the way you approach your health, energy, relationships, and life.



If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by wellness advice, frustrated by your hormones, or confused about what supplements actually support your body, this episode offers a grounded, empowering approach to women’s health—and will change the way you think about your body for good.

  How hormones impact hunger, energy, confidence, and anxiety

  Why women’s health research has historically ignored female biology
