The Power of Three: Hormones, Gut & Brain Health

In this special presentation from Dr. Olivia Valdez, you will learn the strongest key takeaways for the three branches of women's health: hormones (the menopause transition), gut health, and brain optimization.

We will also review a little history of the women's health movement and end with as much Q&A as time allows!
