Your labs say &#34;normal&#34; but you feel awful? Dr. Khadija Douglas breaks down the real hormone truth behind perimenopause, burnout, and skin health on this episode of Be Bonita Podcast.

Ever been told your labs are &#34;normal&#34; — but you still feel exhausted, foggy, and not like yourself? You&#39;re not imagining it, and you&#39;re not alone.

This week on Be Bonita Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Khadija Douglas, Hormone Doctor and founder of My Infinite Wellness, for an honest, in-depth conversation about what&#39;s really happening when conventional medicine keeps telling women they&#39;re &#34;fine.&#34; We talk about the OAT axis (ovarian, adrenal, thyroid), why chronic stress quietly drains your progesterone, the perimenopause symptoms nobody prepares you for, the emotional weight of infertility and pregnancy loss, and how your gut and liver show up on your skin before you even notice.

Dr. Khadija also opens up about a health crisis at 21 that changed the direction of her career, why outdated lab ranges have been failing women for decades, and the simple nightly habits that reset your hormones while you sleep.

A reminder from this one: you can&#39;t serve from a half-empty cup. You&#39;ve got to go back into you.

Ep. 21: Surviving Narcissistic Abuse: Her Journey Back to Herself | Irene Lovett

In this soul-stirring episode of B&#39;Bonita, host Viviane Aires sits down with Coach Ja — Philadelphia-based Pilates instructor, Nike-signed athlete, wellness entrepreneur, and founder of the Black Girl Pilates Club — for a conversation that is equal parts masterclass and medicine.Zha&#39;s story doesn&#39;t start with success. It starts with responsibility — caring for her autistic little brother at age eight while her single mother worked multiple jobs. It runs through the hallways of Spelman College, the Nike World Headquarters in Portland, and a Juneteenth run that drew over a thousand people to the streets in the name of Black lives. And it arrives at its most honest, most human chapter: becoming a single mother, losing herself in postpartum depression, and making the quiet, life-changing decision to take herself back.In this episode, Coach Zha opens up about:<ul><li>The moment she considered ending her life at eight months pregnant — and the reason she chose to stay</li><li>How postpartum depression showed up in silence and why Black women are rarely given the space to talk about it</li><li>Leaving a six-figure career to bet on herself — and why the universe confirmed she made the right call</li><li>How Pilates became the portal back to her body, her identity, and her joy</li><li>Building the Black Girl Pilates Club and the Love Letters series to create the representation she never saw</li><li>Co-parenting with peace, releasing the ego, and choosing love over conflict</li><li>The abundance mindset that shifted everything — and how to start accessing it now</li><li>Her upcoming Greece wellness retreat and what it means to take healing international</li></ul>This is not a highlight reel. This is the real story of a woman who was stripped down to nothing and chose to rise — with grace, with grit, and with her children watching.If you are navigating motherhood, rebuilding your identity, searching for community, or simply ready to stop waiting for someone to come save you — this episode is for you.I hope you enjoy it, as much as I did.Viviane

What happens when you stop waiting to be saved and start saving yourself?

In this episode of Be Bonita, Viviane sits down with Coach ZHA — Pilates instructor, Nike-signed athlete, and founder of the Black Girl Pilates Club in Philadelphia — for one of the most honest conversations about transformation, single motherhood, and healing through movement you will ever hear. Ja opens up about her battle with postpartum depression, the moment she walked away from a six-figure corporate career to bet on herself, and how Pilates became the portal back to her body, her joy, and her purpose.

This is a masterclass in abundance, self-devotion, and the radical act of honoring your commitments to yourself — even when everything around you is falling apart. For every woman who has ever felt lost, depleted, or unsure of who she is outside of what she carries for others — this one is for you.
