Welcome to The Rebel Wellness Podcast - where high-achieving women finally get honest answers about what's happening in their bodies.I'm Kaileigh - former fitness & womens health coach of a decade turned clinical nutritionist who's spent years watching brilliant women push through exhaustion, ignore their symptoms, and wonder why their bodies seem to be working against them. Spoiler alert: they're not. They're just speaking a language we were never taught to understand. Welcome to where we learn it together lovely!Here's what you'll actually find: science-backed explanations for why you feel like garbage despite doing "all the right things," practical strategies that fit into your already-packed life, and conversations that feel like texting your smartest friend who happens to know a lot about hormones, fertility and stress management. (Cause who isn't needing help there nowadays?)We're ditching the toxic positivity and wellness guru baloney. Instead, we're having the real conversations about burnout, hormone chaos, mysterious symptoms, and what it actually takes to feel good in a body that's been through it. Whether you're dealing with irregular cycles, energy crashes, or just trying to figure out why you don't feel like yourself anymore - you're in the right place.. I'm SO happy you're here to join us!
