There are moments in life where you realize…
You can’t control the outcome.
You can only choose how you move forward.

Lately, I’ve been placing things fully in God’s hands—
trusting His timing, His direction, His plan.

And in that surrender… I’ve found a sense of peace I didn’t have before.

So now, I move forward. Definitely not with all the answers, but with faith and hope that I’m being led where I’m meant to be.🤍

Most people think liver health is just about food or alcohol…

But it’s more than that.

Seed oils, processed foods, medications - they all add to the load.

And when that burden gets too high…
👉 hormone metabolism starts to suffer
👉 especially estrogen detoxification (hello hormone imbalances 👋

But here’s the part that surprises most people:
Chronic stress may be one of the biggest burdens on the liver!!
Yes… even more than alcohol.

Stress isn’t just mental you see. It has very real effects on how your body processes hormones and detoxifies.

✨ Full conversation with Kitty Kitty Martone is now live on YouTube + all podcast platforms. This is a must-listen if you’re working on hormone health and balance.

𝑯𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒅 𝒐𝒇 "𝑯𝒐𝒓𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝑻𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒖𝒆 𝑺𝒂𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏?"

There’s a concept in hormone therapy called
tissue saturation. It’s the point where receptors in your tissues are fully occupied - meaning your body has reached its maximal response.

👉 After that, increasing the dose doesn’t necessarily increase the benefit.

my colleague Carol Petersen talks about this, and how some women may not feel any relief from their symptoms, using hormone therapy, including thyroid until they have reached tissue saturations. And sometimes this can take a couple of weeks, even months. This is why we must remember to have patience when we are healing our body.

This is also why more isn’t always better…
and why how your body responds matters just as much as what you take - meaning you need to keep monitoring your symptom picture.

𝑭𝒐𝒓 𝒆𝒙𝒂𝒎𝒑𝒍𝒆; In several of my clients, they didn’t find full relief from their symptoms until they had been using progesterone for a couple of months. And that involved a lot of trial and error too. But when achieved, it indicated that tissue saturation had been achieved. 😀

This study, published in eBioMedicine (March 2026), investigated how natural fluctuations in endogenous s*x hormones affect brain structure across the menstrual cycle.

Using structural MRI, researchers compared brain morphology during menstruation (low hormones) and the periovulatory phase (high estradiol, rising progesterone) in healthy women.

A total of 32 naturally cycling women were included; no hormones were administered - this study reflects endogenous (made in the body) hormone activity only.

The goal was to determine whether estradiol or progesterone more strongly correlates with changes in grey matter volume and cortical thickness.

The study found that progesterone showed stronger and more consistent associations with brain structure than estradiol.

Structural changes were observed in regions rich in progesterone receptors, suggesting a biologically plausible mechanism.

The authors concluded that dynamic, hormone-related brain reorganization is a reproducible feature of the menstrual cycle.

Progesterone appears to be a key modulator of brain morphology, meaning it actively influences the physical structure of the brain. 🧠

The study did not measure cognitive function or brain health outcomes but increased grey matter and cortical thickness is generally considered good. 🙌🏻

It shows that progesterone has a measurable and meaningful effect on the brain.

Other authors’ highlights:
- “Progesterone… emerges as the stronger and more consistent modulator.”
- “Macrostructural changes preferentially occur in regions with high progesterone receptor density.”
- “Dynamic, hormone-related brain reorganisation is a reproducible feature of the menstrual cycle.”

It also highlights that progesterone, not just estrogen, plays a major role in shaping brain structure.

DIM doesn’t “detox estrogen”… and no one is explaining this properly. Until now!

In this conversation with Kitty Martone Kitty Martone , we break down what DIM really does in the body and why it’s not always the right fit for every woman.

DIM supports Phase 1 liver detox, helping shift estrogen down the 2-OH pathway… but that’s only part of the story.

Because if your gut isn’t eliminating properly, you may just be recirculating estrogen - and sometimes making symptoms worse.

We cover:
• What DIM actually does (and doesn’t do)
• Estrogen metabolism explained simply
• Why “estrogen detox” is misunderstood
• The role of liver + gut in hormone balance
• Who should be cautious with DIM
And LOTS more! 😊

If you’re dealing with hormone imbalance or considering DIM, this is a must-listen.

Most women are told to focus on “detoxing estrogen" but it’s not that simple.

If your gut isn’t eliminating properly, estrogen can be recycled back into the body - often in a more inflammatory form.

This is one reason symptoms like heavy periods, clotting, breast tenderness, and fluid retention can persist AND exacerbate over time!😳

Hormone balance isn’t just about one supplement, it’s about how the whole system is working together 🤍

Think DIM detoxes estrogen? Not quite. In this quick clip, Kitty Martone explains how DIM actually works in Phase 1 liver detox, shifting estrogen down the safer 2-OH pathway instead of the more inflammatory 16-OH pathway - and why it doesn’t actually help remove or detoxify estrogen from your body, like many of you have been told. 🫣

A really important question came up during my conversation with Dr. Bryan Treacy 👇🏻

A woman with estrogen-positive cancer asked:
Can fibroids still be removed without a hysterectomy?

The short answer: yes - in many cases, fibroid removal (myomectomy) is possible without removing the uterus. But the conversation didn’t stop there…

We also discussed something more complex:
👉🏻 Could there be a higher risk of estrogen-sensitive fibroid tissue in certain cases?
👉🏻 And could increased aromatase activity within tissues play a role?

This is where individualized care matters.

These conversations are nuanced, and women deserve to understand all of their options, not just the most aggressive one.

Most women are told fibroids cause heavy bleeding…
But that’s not actually the full story.

In this clip from my podcast with Dr. Brtan Treacy we break down what’s really driving heavy periods as it relates to fibroids, and why focusing only on fibroids can miss the root cause.

If you’ve been dealing with heavy bleeding, this is a conversation you need to hear. 💯

45𝒍𝒃𝒔 𝑫𝒐𝒘𝒏. 𝑶𝒇𝒇 𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔. 𝑨𝒏𝒅 𝒈𝒐𝒕 𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌! Wow! 🤩

This woman Jennifer Haywizzle Smith deserves to be celebrated.
She came off multiple medications, improved her perimenopause symptoms, supported her thyroid, reversed fatty liver disease, and is down 45 lbs. All because…
She decided what she wanted, what she deserved - and she made it happen. Check out what Jennifer has to say;

“Chemaine has been the fiery Irish fairy I needed all along. Not only did I get back my physical health, energy, and a body I feel good in…I got my s***k and mental wellness back.
I sought her out after months of research, trying to find someone who would truly listen but also give it to me straight. My symptoms (you name it, I had it lol) had me feeling like my only options were to live as an empty shell or be on psychiatric medications forever.

Then came Chemaine, the most thorough health professional I could have ever wished for. As a medical and mental health professional myself, I was blown away by her knowledge of functional medicine, blood work, hormones, nutrition, fitness, biology, and the psychology of success.

Her program is the WHOLE package. It’s not just knowledge - it’s the model, the accountability, and the delivery that creates long-term success.

As a busy, full-time working mom of 5, I knew I needed to prioritize myself to be the best for my family. I regulated my blood pressure, avoided cholesterol and BP meds, came off reflux meds, anxiety/antidepressants, improved my thyroid function, and even resolved my liver adenoma.

And I got the glow and skin of an 18-year-old lol.

Chemaine gave me hope again. She showed me that I can be physically and mentally healthy, as long as I commit to myself. She was the anchor I needed to start this journey. Thank you, Chemaine.”

☀️ Now is the time to get moving on that summer body. But more importantly… your life body. That body and health you dream of and deserve.

I can help you. Let’s chat. 💬
