In this nourishing and empowering conversation, I sit down with Belinda Ruiz, APRN — functional medicine provider, mama, and passionate advocate for women’s wellness — to explore what it truly means to heal after birth and support the body through every season of motherhood.

Belinda shares her personal journey into functional medicine, born from loss, resilience, and her own health challenges. We talk about why so many women feel “stuck” or depleted postpartum — from hormonal shifts and fatigue to metabolism changes and mood struggles — and how a root-cause, integrative approach can help us feel vibrant and supported again.

Inside this episode, we explore:

✨ Functional medicine vs. treating symptoms

🌀 Hormones, metabolism + postpartum physiology

🥦 Food as foundational postpartum medicine

🧠 Stress + nervous system health for mothers

🧬 Epigenetics + how our habits shape wellness

💧 Gentle detox + lowering toxic load in daily life

💛 Self-care as a form of strength and deep nourishment

Whether you're newly postpartum or years into motherhood, this episode offers science, soul, and simple habits to support your hormones, metabolism, and energy — so you can feel strong, steady, and wildly well in your body again.
