E82: Acne, Missing Periods, and PCOS: What Your Cycle Is Trying to Tell You
If you’ve ever struggled with acne, irregular or missing periods, or wondered if you might have PCOS... this episode is for you.
In today’s conversation, I’m joined by Kate Gregory, a Women’s Holistic Hormone Health Practitioner who helps millennial women rebalance their hormones, restore their energy, and finally feel like themselves again—naturally.
Kate opens up about her own journey with chronic acne and missing periods that ultimately led to a PCOS diagnosis, and what she learned about the real root causes of hormone imbalance. We talk about how PCOS is often a symptom of deeper imbalances (not a life sentence) and the powerful role that gut health, diet, and mineral balance play in supporting clear skin, regular cycles, and better energy.
You’ll also learn:
🌿 What PCOS actually is—and the most common underlying drivers
🧠 How your gut impacts hormone balance and mineral absorption
💡 Why your monthly cycle is your body’s built-in feedback loop
✨ Kate’s top tips for naturally supporting hormones and improving skin
Plus, Kate is offering listeners a 30% discount on her PCOS Masterclass using the code BEYOND.
🎧 Tune in to learn how to start supporting your hormones from the inside out—without restrictive diets or endless supplements.
