We will never tell you what you want to hear at the expense of what you need to know.Yoni University is a podcast built on three things: body literacy (you should understand your own body completely), radical honesty (evidence-based, practitioner-grounded, unwilling to tell women half-truths), and full-spectrum care (the whole arc: fertility, birth, postpartum, and everything in between)!Ashley and Mackenzie are two practitioners and besties who trust each other enough to disagree on air. They name the thing clearly, they give you something you can actually do this week, and they connect symptoms to root causes, not just management. And they speak to women as intelligent adults who can handle the truth.No hedging, no jargon without definition, no normalizing symptoms that deserve investigation! Just education that makes hard things feel possible. Class is in session!

Our first guest. Dr. Traci Carson McEntire. And honestly, we couldn&#39;t have asked for a better way to open the doors!Traci&#39;s doctoral research went deep into RED-S and the Female Athlete Triad, the pattern we see constantly in our practices. Women who are chronically under-fueled and overtrained, normalizing symptoms that should be screaming for help, and only talking about it after their big wins. Never during, when it could actually save someone else.In this episode, Tracy walks us through what&#39;s actually happening in your body when you&#39;re running on empty. She explains why a healthy cycle is natural injury prevention (and why that gets completely missed), shares her own story as a collegiate rower, and she calls out the noise from self-proclaimed experts while backing researchers like Dr. Stacy Sims who actually know what they&#39;re talking about.Whether you&#39;re a current or former athlete, or you just grew up believing you should push through anything, this one lands.What you&#39;ll learn:→ How to recognize RED-S before it becomes a crisis→ Why birth control can hide what&#39;s really happening→ The difference between athletic drive and physiological damage→ Where accountability actually sits (and it&#39;s not on the athlete)→ What to tell a young woman in your life who&#39;s being run into the groundFind Dr. Traci Carson McEntire:Instagram: @traci.carson.mcentireWebsite: https://tlcars.wixsite.com/tracicarsonphdHave your own RED-S story?

Welcome to Yoni University: A Love Letter to Women's Bodies

We will never tell you what you want to hear at the expense of what you need to know.

Yoni University is a podcast built on three things: body literacy (you should understand your own body completely), radical honesty (evidence-based, practitioner-grounded, unwilling to tell women half-truths), and full-spectrum care (the whole arc: fertility, birth, postpartum, and everything in between)!

Ashley and Mackenzie are two practitioners and besties who trust each other enough to disagree on air. They name the thing clearly, they give you something you can actually do this week, and they connect symptoms to root causes, not just management. And they speak to women as intelligent adults who can handle the truth.

No hedging, no jargon without definition, no normalizing symptoms that deserve investigation! Just education that makes hard things feel possible. Class is in session!
