The Autoimmune Reset: Hashimoto’s, Healing, and What’s Ahead This Season

Welcome to Season 2 of She’s In Progress with Alexandra Lourdes and Dr. Josh Redd. In this kickoff episode, Alexandra shares her personal Hashimoto’s journey — from feeling exhausted and limited by autoimmunity to reclaiming her energy, health, and day-to-day life — while setting the stage for the powerful conversations coming this season.

Together, they introduce the topics this season will explore: autoimmune disease, Hashimoto’s, inflammation, nutrition, supplements, gut health, and the biggest food triggers that can make symptoms worse. You’ll also hear what makes a supplement company worth trusting, what to look for on labels, and how an anti-inflammatory approach to eating can support better health.

This season is all about real answers, practical tools, and a deeper understanding of how to support your body from the inside out — especially if you’re navigating Hashimoto’s or another autoimmune condition.

Why are autoimmune diseases rising so dramatically in women? Why are so many women being told their symptoms are normal or worse that there's nothing they can do about them?

SPEAKER_01 0:09

It's time to start asking bigger questions. There is something that you can do about it, and that's what we're going to be talking about here.

SPEAKER_00 0:15

Okay, so why are autoimmune diseases rising so dramatically in women?

SPEAKER_01 0:19

A number of different things. Our food quality is really terrible. We're surrounded by environmental toxins left and right. We're constantly being exposed to so many different things our body isn't used to. And then our stress levels are at an all-time high. We're feeding our body full of estrogen, which one is one of the biggest triggers for an autoimmune condition. And our blood sugar levels are incredibly unstable. All those things cause our immune system to freak out and to panic. If you're new here, I'm Dr. Josh Redd. Welcome to the SIP family. I own one of the largest autoimmune clinics in the United States and we deal with serious chronic conditions.

SPEAKER_00 0:52

Yeah, he's also my doctor. And I'm Alex. I have a master's degree in health and I also have a PhD in education. I'm not here because I'm an expert. I'm here because I was a patient and I currently still am a patient. I'm here because I'm a patient that was tired of being told that everything is normal when I didn't feel normal. A few years ago, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's and I was completely lost. And after my own diagnosis, I realized something that there is a huge community of women out there that also feel the exact same way.

SPEAKER_01 1:18

You would be shocked at how many people recognize me in public and come up and share with me their symptoms. And most of their quality of life is horrible. I know. They go from doctor to doctor, they're being told that they're either crazy or they're lazy. They have no hope whatsoever. And in reality, they're just being misdiagnosed. And there's so many different things that we can do to help these patients improve and have a lot better quality of life, but nobody knows about it, which is crazy.

SPEAKER_00 1:43

Yeah. Today we're going to do a little autoimmune Hashimoto's one-on-one. We're going to focus on the sneaky symptoms, the red flags, and questions that you must ask your doctor. You ready?

SPEAKER_01 1:54

I'm ready to rock.

SPEAKER_00 1:55

Okay. So first I was thinking we could focus on some symptoms. So, like, what are the typical symptoms that your patients have?

SPEAKER_01 2:02

There's a myriad of symptoms that are really common for people: brain fog, fatigue, joint pain, intestinal problems, insomnia, headaches, bowel issues, whether it's diarrhea or constipation, bloating, distension. Those are really, really common across the board with all of our autoimmune patients and really patients with chronic diseases.

SPEAKER_00 2:22

Yeah. So because a lot of people, I feel like they wake up tired or and and they were just being told that that's normal, right? Or they're they're cold. Like I had that for me, I have a I had a huge sensitivity to cold. Like I was freezing all the time, no matter if it was hot out, I would be wearing a jacket. Like the the skin, my like skin was super dry. Like some things that you, I guess, learn to live with that you think it's normal, and all of a sudden you realize that it's actually not normal.

SPEAKER_01 2:45

No, totally. A lot of the times when you have an autoimmune condition or a chronic condition, your brain is literally inflamed. And what symptoms that come from that are fatigue and depression, just because your brain isn't firing optimally. And so a lot of people have fatigue and depression, brain fog, joint pain, intestinal issues. And ironically, here's the crazy thing too. If your brain is inflamed, then it's not firing to the intestinal tract properly. And so you have poor absorption, poor digestion, poor gut motility, all sorts of intestinal issues too. A lot of times as we age, people are just saying this is normal.

SPEAKER_00 3:20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:21

I was at a golf event earlier today. Two of the guys that are with have intestinal bloating and distension after meals. And they just think it's like a normal aging process. I'm like, no, that's not normal. Like your brain is not firing to the intestinal tract. You need to figure out if you're eating things that are higher in sugar and it's causing immediate bloating, that's a problem. We got to figure out what the mechanism is that's causing that, right?

SPEAKER_00 3:42

Yeah, that's so interesting because I almost feel like women don't even know how good they could feel too, you know, because most people don't.

SPEAKER_01 3:49

Yeah. Right. And a lot of times I'll break down symptoms and I'll break down their blood work and I'll ask them if they have any symptoms or issues. And a lot of times they'll say no or maybe minimal. Then once I go through their labs and I'm like, what in the world? This patient is really struggling. And then they don't even realize how bad they actually feel. And then once you can get them to feel really good, it's yeah, I mean, you said it right. They just don't understand how bad they feel for sure.

SPEAKER_00 4:14

Because I mean that happened to me, like as a patient, because this was, I think, when did I start with you? Three years ago?

SPEAKER_01 4:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 4:19

Was it three or four? I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 4:21

Yeah, I think like three and a half, four years ago.

SPEAKER_00 4:22

So when I that was like one thing that I realized that I also didn't know how good I could feel, you know, and because you I remember you asking me, like, from a scale from one to 10, you know, like how, you know, how um good do you feel every day? And I was like, honestly, I wake up exhausted, you know, and I, but I just thought that that was normal. Like I just I'm like, oh, I'm just getting older, I'm just tired all the time, you know. But yeah, now I'm not tired at all. Like I work all day. I have so much energy. I I can work through into the night, and even with my kids, I have energy for them. And when I posted the video on uh on the shorts about this, that we're gonna be doing this episode in this podcast, I had so many people are like, I feel so seen, you know, because I'm like, that is so true. Because it's so true. I think women don't realize that, like what we were just saying, I just feel like women don't realize that these symptoms aren't normal.

SPEAKER_01 5:09

No.

SPEAKER_00 5:09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 5:09

And and it's so hard too, because um, if a woman's like pregnant and then they are nursing afterwards, there's so many different symptoms and issues that can come from that. And then you have perimenopause where starting at the age of 30 now, you can start to go into perimenopause and it can be up for 10 to 15 years. And so you have the symptoms of perimenopause and all this flares up chronic conditions and the autoimmune condition, right? And then you go into menopause where your hormones are pretty much that of a dead person and we're wondering why you don't feel good. Like there's so many different things that women have to go through with their bodies and with their physiological system that just set you up for failure if we're not doing the right things to keep things in check, right?

SPEAKER_00 5:51

Completely. So here are the sneaky symptoms that I had that I thought were normal. So I was fatigued, like I told you, I would wake up tired. I was sluggish. I had a sensitivity to cold. I would literally bundle up in the like outside in 100 degree weather, I would have a blanket. Um, I always had weight gain, not extreme, but I was I couldn't lose weight. It was like super hard for me. Um brain fog was bad, but in my brain fog, it was like I could not find the words that I needed to use. Like it was just like I could, and then I could also like have a conversation and mid-conversation, I would just forget what I was talking about. I had really, really dry skin. I also had a lot of like little bumps like on my skin, on my arms. Um, I just had like a lot a lot of skin problems. My nails were really brittle. I had slower digestion, um, heavy irregular periods was a bad, a big one. And I remember you telling me that that's causing my low iron, which was triggering my Hashimoto's. Like, so there's a lot of things that I was, I just dealt with my whole life. And I was like, oh, this is just normal. This is part of my life. So also, like I the inflammation was bad. I didn't know it was inflammation. I just thought I was I had extra weight. I thought, you know, I just had to work out more, but it was actually inflammation. So it was crazy. Like I I feel dramatically better now.

SPEAKER_01 7:01

But I mean, that that's a ton of symptoms, right? I mean, and I think I remember talking to you, and slowly but surely like day by day, you're like, oh, I also have this symptom. I also have this symptom. And what you thought was normal is definitely not normal. Yeah. As we age, we should have a good quality of life where we can function and feel great. You shouldn't have 15 different symptoms, and then you go to your doctor and they give you a pill for a symptom and nothing's being done to the actual mechanism driving it. Like that's infuriating, right?

SPEAKER_00 7:28

Completely.

SPEAKER_01 7:28

And a lot of these times, these patients, it's hard to be around others because they feel like a burden to their family and to their friends. But then they also feel like they're crazy and they've lost complete hope because when they go to the doctor, they see your labs are normal. Your symptoms are just part of the aging process. And in reality, it's like, no, you have serious physiological imbalances. Yeah. And if we do the right tests and do the right exams, we're gonna see exactly what those problems are. But no doctors are really diving deep to try to uncover that stuff. And then here we are with patients that have lost hope, that have two to three good days a month, and they're about to pull their hair out with the hair that they actually have left because their hair's already fallen out because the mechanism isn't being found, right?

SPEAKER_00 8:10

Yeah, I that's how I felt exactly. Which is a good segue into our next topic, which is red flags. I feel like for our SIP family, I really want them to be educated when they go into the doctor. And I want them to know what are red flags when they go into the doctor.

SPEAKER_01 8:23

Your doctor's gonna hate us, by the way. Because we're gonna tell you like what labs to do, we're gonna tell you what to eat, what nutrition to do, what to look out for.

SPEAKER_00 8:30

We don't want them to hate us. We want we want to work with them. Like we want to be more educated.

SPEAKER_01 8:35

Yeah, but here's the deal. When you go to your doctors and you start to say, Hey, I want to, I want this test to be ran. Or what about this nutrition? And you're asking things that are a little bit more complex than what they're used to. Yeah, they get a bit sometimes they get a little bit frustrated, right? I have so many great doctors that are conventional doctors that love us and we love them, and we work we coincide great together, uh, great together. But at the same time, we're gonna teach you so that you can be the expert in your own health.

SPEAKER_00 8:59

Exactly.

SPEAKER_01 9:00

And this is part of the whole process and this season.

SPEAKER_00 9:03

Exactly. So, what are some red flags to look out for when you're trying to find the right doctor?

SPEAKER_01 9:08

One of the most common ones is when you have 15 different symptoms and they say that your lab tests are normal. That is a severe problem, right?

SPEAKER_00 9:16

Yeah, for sure. That happened to me a so many times. What about the um what about the prescription of just like just a band-aid over your thyroid medication?

SPEAKER_01 9:27

Yeah, another really common one is here's a pill for your symptom while the underlying mechanisms aren't being addressed. If you have depression or anxiety, there's a physiological process that isn't functioning well that if we corrected, it would significantly improve those. But if they're just gonna give you a depression medication, anxiety medication, or a thyroid medication and not do anything to actually address the mechanism driving it, that's an issue. Like for example, you have Hashimoto's disease, which is an autoimmune disease that attacks the thyroid, right? You really don't have a thyroid problem. The Hashimoto's, which is an immune problem, is the mechanism. So if I'm just focused on the actual thyroid and that's it, we fail because you have a bigger inflammatory immune issue causing the thyroid destruction and it's probably causing skin issues, brain dysfunction, liver dysfunction, blood sugar imbalances, intestinal issues, you name it, right? And so if I'm just simply giving you a thyroid hormone, which I like thyroid hormones, but I'm not actually addressing the underlying mechanism, or I don't even tell you or even look for the underlying mechanism, that's a huge red flag, right? Totally. For example, how many patients do we see that have a ton of thyroid issues, that are on thyroid hormones, and they don't even know what's causing their thyroid issue? That's a problem. That's a huge red flag, right? Well, we should be asking ourselves, okay, what's causing my thyroid problem? Is it an underconversion problem of the thyroid? Is it a pituitary thyroid problem? Is it a protein binding problem? Is it Hashimoto's, which 80% of our thyroid patients actually have, which is a bigger autoimmune problem? These are the questions that we want you to ask your doctors and that we want you to help dig deep to know exactly what's the mechanism driving your autoimmune condition or your chronic condition.

SPEAKER_00 11:12

So, in summary, first red flag. If your doctor only tests your thyroid, TSH, right? And says, okay, you need thyroid hormone, and that's it. That's a red flag.

SPEAKER_01 11:24

That's a huge red flag.

SPEAKER_00 11:25

So, second, I think for me, it was when I asked a doctor to test me for Hashimoto's, they said, Oh no, you don't need to because there's nothing we can do about it, anyways. I had two doctors tell me that.

SPEAKER_01 11:35

Lots of doctors will do that.

SPEAKER_00 11:36

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 11:36

Because there's not gonna dictate how they treat you. Yeah. They're gonna give you thyroid hormones, whether they you have Hashimoto's or not. But if you have Hashimoto's, then there's dietary lifestyle and a number of other things that you can correct and improve that will calm down the autoimmune response to get you to feel better.

SPEAKER_00 11:52

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 11:52

That's far beyond just a thyroid hormone.

SPEAKER_00 11:54

So it's another red flag. If they don't want to test your antibodies, because I think that any if you ask for it, they should, they should be able to do it.

SPEAKER_01 12:01

100%. The other red flag is that if you ask your doctor about nutrition and they say nutrition doesn't do anything to your condition, that's a huge problem. When you're eating inflammatory foods and you have an inflammatory condition, it's gonna impact it whether you like it or not. There's tons of things that we can do with nutrition to improve your autoimmune response, to improve your inflammatory condition, and to improve your overall quality of life. What you eat has an impact on every single aspect from a biochemical standpoint. What you consume will either make you sick or make you healthier. It's that simple. And if your doctor doesn't tell you otherwise, you should find a new doctor right away. Most doctors don't have the schooling and nutrition to really know whether this is gonna impact your condition or not. And so find a doctor that has a really good understanding with nutrition or can at least work with doctors that have a good understanding of nutrition for sure.

SPEAKER_00 12:52

Yeah, that's great. Speaking of the anti-inflammatory diet, um, we are gonna do a full episode on that as well. So we'll talk about we'll dive in deep on into diet and how people can start the anti-inflammatory diet because I feel like that deserves its own episode.

SPEAKER_01 13:04

Totally. With your book. Yep. Yay.

SPEAKER_00 13:07

So this one is for you guys, the SIP family, because we want you to be in charge of your own health. And I think this is really important. So get a pen and piece of paper and write these down because these are really important questions that you must ask your doctor. So but that's there any other specific tests that you would recommend that they run.

SPEAKER_01 13:23

Yeah, there's uh inflammatory markers, there's other antibodies. Like you can test for really common antibodies like transglutaminase antibody or antibodies to the parietal cells of the stomach, which are really common for Hashimoto's patients, or thyroid antibodies, like looking for when you go to a doctor and you have symptoms and they say that your labs are normal, the reason why is because they haven't checked deep, right? We want to teach you how to check deep. And so looking at inflammatory markers, which we'll do a whole episode on inflammatory markers and blood chemistry in general, which will be awesome. But asking your doctor to check for a full thyroid panel to see if you have an underconversion problem. There's a lot of patients that don't have thyroid problems, but they have thyroid antibodies and their immune system is attacking their thyroid at a rapid pace, and this is causing a ton of symptoms. And it's called Hashimoto's autoimmune reaction. So they don't actually have a low thyroid yet, but they have an immune system that's destroying the thyroid, causing thyroid symptoms. They could have antibodies attacking joint tissue, they could have antibodies attacking stomach tissue, or you name it, right? And so asking your doctor to check autoimmune antibodies, that could be huge. Yeah. And then they can look further. Another really common one is to ask your doctor if they're checking inflammatory markers. Sometimes the patient's just really inflamed. They're eating things that are causing inflammation, they're exposed to things that cause inflammation, they're living a high stress life that causes inflammation. And just simply checking inflammation in your labs, which is really easy, and then calming that down, you could be better in three weeks, right?

SPEAKER_00 14:56

What about um iron and ferritin?

SPEAKER_01 14:58

Yeah, iron and ferritin is really important. If iron and ferritin aren't optimal, you can have a ton of symptoms because your body isn't transporting oxygen to your brain and distal tissues. So sometimes it's just a blood pressure, blood perfusion, or an iron issue. And those are really easy to fix too. So asking your doctor about those three things could be huge.

SPEAKER_00 15:18

And then also another thing I know you recommend is wearing a glucose monitor.

SPEAKER_01 15:22

Yeah, I love here's the thing. We live in a population where our blood sugar levels are completely trashed, right? They're constantly volatile. They're like a roller coaster. And if we can stabilize glucose, it's one easy thing to help. And we can do a full episode on this too. Yeah. But can they ask our doctor? Yeah, yeah. Just asking your doctor for the right blood sugar labs, LDH, hemoglobin A1C, fasting insulin, and glucose. That could be such an easy thing that you can do to improve your quality of life by just stabilizing glucose. And then if your doctor doesn't, then just go on and buy a continuous glucose monitor and you want your blood sugar levels between 80 to 130, no matter what you eat. But we'll do a full episode just on this alone.

SPEAKER_00 16:04

We shouldn't even put we can tell we we can put one on me so they like they can see how to do it. Because it's, I think a lot of people don't even know how to do it. Like, because I was also scared when I first put put one on. So I could like show you how easy it is to put on and how it works, you know, how how it reads your blood sugar. Totally. It's like so it's so easy to use and it's not bad. It really puts you in charge of your own health.

SPEAKER_01 16:23

My kids do it too. It's like we do like a full science project for all everything that we eat and what we do and how we yeah, it's great.

SPEAKER_00 16:29

What about celiac? You think everyone should, if you're having inflammation, do you think that that's important to ask your doctor to test you for that?

SPEAKER_01 16:35

Because celiac, here's the deal 20% of the population in America has some type of autoimmune reaction that's occurring. So because so many patients have chronic symptoms, I will always check of everything that I do from a lab test. If you come into me, even my like my high high-profile athletes, for example, I'll check for Hashimoto's antibodies, which is an anti-thyroglobin antibody and a TPL antibody. And then I'll check for celic disease. I'll run the transglutaminase antibody as well. Just because those three are the most common autoimmune conditions in our country. And if those three come back positive or one of them comes back positive, then there's something that you can do to significantly improve your quality of life just from that. So those three at a minimum, there's also one called an antiparietal cell antibody, really inexpensive test, but it's the most common antibody with celiac disease and Hashimoto's. So if you remember, um, I think his name is Brian Johnson. He's like the healthy guy. Do you know who I'm talking about? Like he like spends millions of dollars on his health, for example. Yeah, he ages backwards, right? It just came out in the media that he has now antibodies attacking his stomach. Lots of people were freaking out, saying, like, I told you this guy is a fraud or whatever it is. Like, no, this guy is way healthier because of his dietary and lifestyle choices. No questions asked. What he didn't do is 20 years ago, he was diagnosed with Hashimoto's. And the most common autoimmune disease with Hashimoto's is antipredal cell antibodies, too. And so he had those antibodies 20 years ago, but most doctors don't actually check for those antibodies. And so now, fast forward 20 years, they check. He has them. They think he just recently got diagnosed with an autoimmune condition of the stomach, but he didn't. He had them for the last 20 years. So if you are going to your doctor, you have these symptoms, checking for those antibodies are such an easy thing to do. Yeah. It could bring forth so much information to help further your quality of life and help improve your overall inflammatory markers and overall physiology.

SPEAKER_00 18:36

So the to summarize, it's going to be these tests. So checking for antibodies, checking for iron and ferritin, and checking for inflammation. Inflammation.

SPEAKER_01 18:46

Checking for blood sugar imbalances.

SPEAKER_00 18:47

And blood sugar imbalances. I think those are like the top things that you have to check if you're feeling if you have any of these symptoms.

SPEAKER_01 18:53

And then if you're 30 and older, then checking for things like progesterone, estrodiol, LH, FSH, testosterone, just a simple basic hormone panel can be huge too. Yeah. Lots of people like you, for example, had crazy high estrogen, your body wasn't able to get rid of estrogen effectively, and that causes so many different problems from an inflammatory standpoint. And then when you're high stressed, your adrenal glands still weigh progesterone and convert it into cortisol. So now you have this ratio of estrogen to progesterone that's just massive.

SPEAKER_00 19:28

Yeah, mine was super out of whack remember.

SPEAKER_01 19:29

Yeah. And that causes so many different symptoms in and of itself. If we should do an episode just on this alone.

SPEAKER_00 19:36

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 19:37

But if all I did was fix an estrogen to progesterone ratio, and that's all I focused on, we're going to significantly improve people's quality of life because progesterone is such a vital hormone to help with energy, happiness, brain function, all that as well.

SPEAKER_00 19:54

Yeah. There's so much we're going to talk about, and I'm so excited.

SPEAKER_01 19:57

We'll do a full episode on labs. And then what I'll do to follow up on that episode is I'll create a PDF of which markers I want you to check for, and then detail out what that marker explains and what it is for. And then you can take that to your doctor and have them check for those labs too. And for the most part, these labs are really inexpensive. So like if you do cash pay, they're super inexpensive. If they take these labs and they bill your insurance, it's like $3,000. Oh my gosh. But if I just pay cash, it could be like $200, which is one of the problems of why people get sick in this country, is because of the insurance model, right? A lot of times it's not the doctor to blame. The doctor's really asked to do a 15-minute appointment. They have this patient after patient after patient. They don't have the time to really assess this. And then the insurance company is dictating what labs this doctor actually runs, which is crazy.

SPEAKER_00 20:46

Yeah, that's really insane.

SPEAKER_01 20:47

Then the insurance company is dictating what actual medication and what treatment this doctor can do. It's not the doctor that's actually doing the detailed exam, doing the detailed blood work, doing the detailed assessment that's actually telling what this patient can do for some of these patients. Yeah. It's the insurance model, which is insane.

SPEAKER_00 21:05

Yeah. So if there's a patient that's experiencing all of these symptoms, what are some questions that they should ask their doctor?

SPEAKER_01 21:11

I think are there other labs that can be tested to really get to the mechanism of why I feel bad? Does nutrition play a role in my health? Are there supplements that can help with the medication that I'm taking? Or are there supplements that can help improve the symptoms that I have? Or are there supplements that can help improve the mechanism for my condition? Right. There's so many different things that supplements can go a long way if you get the right supplement, right? Is there diet and lifestyle that can help my condition? Is there more extensive labs that we could do that could uncover why I have this issue, why I have thyroid problems, why I have joint pain, why I have intestinal issues? Are there other tests that we may not have done that we could do? Those are questions that you should ask your doctor that could really improve your quality of life. And most people don't feel like they can even ask those questions. Yeah. But ask them. Right? That's really important.

SPEAKER_00 22:06

Yeah. Make sure.

SPEAKER_01 22:07

We're gonna go over so many different things that are gonna help your quality of life and help you get on a path back to health. And so make sure and save this video to ask your doctor what questions to ask.

SPEAKER_00 22:17

What are some sneaky symptoms that a woman might experience that could be a red flag for an autoimmune condition?

SPEAKER_01 22:22

Depression, fatigue, weight gain, joint pain, intestinal issues, brain fog, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, any neurobehavioral type issue, heavy periods. I mean, there's so many different things out there, right? Um, but these are some really common ones that we see when their lab tests may be quote unquote normal, and then all of a sudden they have this array of symptoms that nobody is actually ever taking care of or addressing. Or when you go to your doctor and they say that your lab tests are normal and you still have all these symptoms, those are huge red flags.

SPEAKER_00 22:57

So I'm so excited for the season. Are you excited?

SPEAKER_01 22:59

This is gonna be great. Yeah. We're gonna lay out every single thing. If you feel overwhelmed right now, there's no need to be because the next episodes, we'll go through each and every little part that's gonna help you and help your quality of life.

SPEAKER_00 23:11

And don't worry if you're feeling overwhelmed, like Dr. Red said. We're gonna go into detail on all of this. You guys know I have a so I you guys know I love education. I have a PhD in education. I was actually a professor at UNLV. So this is my jam. And I can't wait to teach you guys everything that I've learned through experience. And I can't wait for Dr. Red to share the all the knowledge he has because I am so lucky that I actually was able to connect with you three years ago. And my symptoms and my Hashimoto's have improved so dramatically that I feel like that's literally the reason that we met so we could actually share and help so many of you guys.

SPEAKER_01 23:46

And we do this so often. A lot of times we do it just from a personal level with our patients, right? Where they come in and they might feel overwhelmed at the very beginning. But there's a process to it. Like we'll walk you through so that you can be the expert in your own health. We'll teach you all these little concepts that can make a big difference for your quality of life. And I think it's gonna be fantastic.

SPEAKER_00 24:05

Yes. Don't worry, you're not alone. That's a wrap for episode one. I hope you guys loved it. Make sure you drop any questions that you guys have in the comments because we're gonna do one episode just answering a bunch of different questions from you guys, because that's obviously why we're here. And don't forget to follow She's in Progress, Alexander Lourdes, and of course, Dr. Josh Redd. I'll put the handles below so you guys can find all of us. And we can't wait to see you next time. For so many women, the hardest part isn't the diagnosis. It's feeling like no one believes what you're experiencing. We believe you. And we want this to be a place where women feel seen, heard, and empowered to ask better questions. Because healing starts with being heard. Don't worry, you're not behind. You're in progress.
