  • Did you know ovarian health is more than just about fertility? Jess Berman, Chief Marketing Officer at BodyBio—a company founded by her family to support health through high-quality supplements—shared her personal health journey, especially with PCOS, and how committing to ovarian health and mitochondrial support transformed her life. Turns out, keeping those ovaries happy is key to preventing issues like heart disease and dementia later on. Jess makes it all feel so doable—small shifts in our daily habits can have a lasting impact.


    We also got into the inner workings of mitochondria, those little powerhouses in our cells, and why they’re so crucial in the ovaries for energy levels and overall vitality. Jess breaks down the effects of toxins on these cells and shares practical tips on detoxing from heavy metals and endocrine disruptors—things that often slip under our radar but can be a big part of feeling our best. She lets us in on essential nutrients like phosphatidylcholine and healthy fats that make a real difference at the cellular level.


    And for anyone ready to take these tips to the next level, Jess has shared a discount code “DrAnna” for BodyBio products to help you get started. If you’re also looking for a natural boost, try my Mighty Maca Plus blend—it’s packed with over 30 ingredients designed to support hormones and energy levels.

Get out in the sun, be grounding, be eating seasonal kind of foods, not stuff that you shouldn't be eating. really taking a look at what you're putting in the body. From a supplement perspective, for fertility in particular, it's still that flooding the body with fats." [00:33:23] – Jess Berman

    "It's not just about a bubble bath and a massage. It's about, am I letting in thoughts that are for my best interests and in my best growth and that keep me positive? Am I dwelling on things that I can't change? Am I worried about other people that I can't change? Those kind of things. It was more in my mental and emotional health that actually ended up influencing my physical health in the long run." [00:28:07] – Dr. Jessica Peatross

    "That was really my struggle then, being newly separated and then trying to deal with everyone being at college. But now I'm in a great relationship and so that has been kind of a new thing and kind of an enjoying thing, but I certainly can see how hormone fluctuations absolutely did make a difference. For me, hormone replacement therapy worked." [00:21:36] – Dr. Tara Scott

And I think at that point too, I was just tired of being overweight. And once I started losing the weight, and not only were other people noticing, but I was just noticing how much better I felt. And that for me was the motivator." [00:07:57] – Tracy Slavik

    "I'm 45 and I feel the best that I ever have. I think that age is a number, and it doesn't matter what age you are. It doesn't matter where you're at right now. Just start. Take it one day at a time and focus just on you and your journey." [00:31:26] – Tracy Slavik

    Memorable Quotes:

    "There's no such vocabulary or range for menopause. We just assume it's the same for everyone. Whereas it's very similar. Some women, a few women are almost suicidal during menopause. Some women develop rage. Some women just cry and they're effectively depressed, they're hormonally depressed. And there's just no recognition of this and there's no support system in place, which I find extremely upsetting." [00:17:19] – Dr. Lisa Mosconi

    "Hot flashes are not just a quality of life issue. For many years, that was the notion that you have a hot flash, you just grin and bear it, and eventually it'll go away. And now there's an understanding that a hot flash is not just heat, it's a neurological reaction that impacts multiple systems, multiple biological and neurophysiological systems, then need to be taken quite seriously because it may be a sign of a disruption in the cardiovascular system and potentially the neurological system."

    Memorable Quotes:

    "Once you start learning strategies to manage that energy, you become more aligned and feel in control of your life. And then we're not blaming time as the reason why we can't do something else. We're reverse engineering from the inside out. We learn to communicate differently. We learn to manage ourselves differently, the mental energy, emotional energy, physical energy, relational energy, like even just with people. And it just completely changes the trajectory of your life." [00:16:04] – Heather Chauvin

    "I always tell people, you will be successful if you put time and energy into something you don't want to do, and if you put something in a skill that you want to learn that is maybe emotionally uncomfortable for you. So, I always say if this is uncomfortable, it's a growth opportunity and you are leaning into it." [00:20:17] – Heather Chauvin

    "I ask ladies, what is the number one way to turn on your man? Think about that and answer it for yourself. Well, the number one turn-on for a man, and I've asked many, even some of the most chauvinistic, egotistic men, it's her pleasure. It's her pleasure. Her turn-on is his turn-on. So, the answer is to express your pleasure guiltlessly and shamelessly." [00:19:29] – Dr. Anna Cabeca

    Memorable Quotes:

    "There's 50 plus studies that support the safety of vaginal laser rejuvenation and radiofrequency rejuvenation. And we know that they improve all the things that come along with either potentially childbirth. Now, scar tissue, those sorts of things, you're not going to get resolved from that. But genital urinary symptoms, the urine leakage, laxity, even sensation have been something that people have really just benefited from for sure." [00:17:19] – Angel Turlington

    "Nutrition is feeding your skin from the inside out, no question. And I, again, I have practiced this lifestyle for the bulk of my career. And so that's the other reason I felt a responsibility to push women towards recognizing that this is all, there is a reason that I'm aging so well. And I can, and as far as appearance goes, and I say this all the time, and I can promise you, it's not Botox. You know, it's not, it's my diet. It's all of those other healthy habits that we do."
