Modern Women’s Wellness Podcast is your go-to resource for navigating the complexities of women’s health, hormone balance, and fertility. Hosted by Dr. Miranda Naylor, a board-certified functional medicine doctor, this podcast delivers science-backed insights and expert advice tailored to women on a mission to transform their health.
The Latest
Migraine is now the leading cause of disability in women under 50, and most women dealing with them have been handed a pill and sent on their way.
Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Amelia Barrett, board-certified neurologist, TEDx speaker, founder of the Migraine Relief Code, and author of the new book Decode Your Migraine, about what migraines actually are, why your specific headache diagnosis matters less than you've been told, and how to start fixing the root causes.
We get into:
✔️ Why the diagnosis (migraine vs. tension vs. cluster) matters less than the underlying biology
✔️ Chronification, and why waiting years to address headaches makes them so much harder to fix
✔️ Hormones and migraine, and why patch HRT is not off the table for you
✔️ The one blood test Dr. Barrett wants every woman to get (and the number to aim for)
✔️ How toxins, stress wiring, and nutrient deficiencies fill up your ”migraine bucket”
If you've been powering through headaches with ibuprofen and told there's nothing more to do, start here.
