Hormones, Identity & Boundaries: The Missing Link in Women’s Healing (Dr. Sonya Jensen)

About this episode

Dr. Shivani Gupta and Dr. Sonya Jensen discuss the connection between hormonal imbalance and emotional factors in women's health.

In this episode of The Inflammation Code, Dr. Shivani Gupta sits down with Dr. Sonya Jensen, naturopathic doctor and women’s health expert, to explore the deeper roots of hormonal imbalance through the lens of identity, boundaries, nervous system regulation, and relational stress. Dr. Jensen shares how many women experience hormone symptoms as “hormonal chaos,” but what’s often happening underneath is emotional overload, unprocessed grief, and a lifetime of roles that no longer fit. Her upcoming book Heal Your Hormones, Reclaim Yourself introduces her HER method, helping women reconnect to self-trust, clarity, and balance without treating symptoms in isolation. What you’ll learn: *Why women often say “I don’t feel like myself” (and what that signals) *How estrogen/progesterone shifts can amplify anxiety, irritability, and resentment *Why gut/liver/lymph support matters for hormone clearance *The connection between boundaries, values, and hormonal stability *How simple daily rituals restore safety in the body and soften burnout Connect with Dr. Sonya Jensen Book: https://healyourhormonesbook.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drsonyajensen/ Links + Resources mentioned •…
