74. What Changed When Lauren Stopped Chasing Symptoms Alone & Found the Support to Heal Her Hormones at the Root

Today’s episode is SUCH a special one. 💛 I’m sitting down with my client Lauren Vander Linden to share her incredible hormone healing testimony. After experiencing preeclampsia during pregnancy followed by persistent postpartum bleeding, Lauren had tried seemingly everything to figure out what was happening in her body. Together, we started looking deeper—at hormones, minerals, iron, cellular health, and the whole person rather than simply trying to make the symptom disappear.

But Lauren’s story is about so much more than labs and protocols. It’s a beautiful conversation about surrender, prayer, trusting your body, and allowing God into the healing process. Lauren shares how her energy, motherhood, marriage, and relationship with her body began to shift and the incredible moment when, after years of struggling with bleeding, it finally stopped. 

In this episode:

• Lauren’s experience with preeclampsia + persistent postpartum bleeding
• Looking beyond symptoms to hormones, minerals, iron + cellular health
• How testing helped us identify gaps that had previously been missed
• Thinking about your body’s energy like a “bank account”
• What changed when Lauren stopped striving + started trusting her body
• The role surrender, prayer + faith played in her healing journey
• How healing impacted Lauren’s energy, motherhood + marriage
• Making room for both miracles AND stewardship of the body
• What Lauren’s story can teach us about what may be possible when we support the whole person
