Most people don’t realize how often hormone issues show up as anxiety, irritability, brain fog, or feeling “off.” They’re often told everything is “normal” or handed a prescription — when the deeper problem is biological.
Dr. Jill Stocker is a physician focused on hormone optimization and trauma-informed care. After being misdiagnosed for nearly 20 years, she became her own first patient and now helps others understand what their bodies are trying to tell them.
You’ll learn why hormone imbalances mimic anxiety and depression, how trauma affects your stress response, why younger men and women are experiencing symptoms earlier than ever, the overlooked risks of TRT, and how to start feeling more like yourself again.
