Dr. Brooke Show

Amidst polarizing, conflicting, and often alarming health and hormone information, The Dr Brooke Show is a voice of sanity where a sensible and nuanced take is honored. Black-and-white thinking, complex daily routines, and hormone advice that get you lost in minutia are not welcome here, but you are. With your host Dr Brooke Kalanick, functional medicine doctor and female hormone expert, you’ll sift through the nonsense and get to what matters most for your hormones and your happiness. Deep dive with expert interviews as well as Dr. Brooke’s solo episodes will give you the solutions you need. Dr Brooke is a speaker, author, and unlike most online experts: still a doc in full-time practice working with real women every day. Like you, she is navigating the moving target that is female hormones through the years and trying to live life more like interval training vs. a marathon: work hard but also recover, learning when to have more grit or when to have more grace. Oh, and also trying not to give her kids too much to talk about in therapy someday. Her promise to you is at least one actionable takeaway from each episode to help you BETTER today. New episodes every Tuesday because a fresh take doesn’t have to happen on a Monday. Any day, any moment is a chance to heal a bit, love ourselves more, make a better choice, and just maybe change our lives. If this week’s topic isn’t for you, check past episodes and stay tuned for next week as a lot of ground is covered on this show! Whether you are 20 or 60, you deserve to understand how your hormones work and how you can feel your best.

Most women have heard some version of “it’s all in your head” from their doctor as they sought help for fatigue, depression, pain or other issue. Maya Dusenbery in her amazing book “Doing Harm” researched why women deal with this issue more than men and how sexism, gender bias and poor science factor into this unfortunately common issue. If you’ve ever left a doctor's appointment feeling  dismissed and frustrated, you aren’t alone. Tune into this episode and reconnect with why you are your own best advocate and know your body better than literally anyone else...even your doctor.

Our upcoming book Hangry is out in just a month! In today’s episode we share the meat of the book: our systems. These straightforward, easy to remember and implement framework not only give you a foundation and a starting point but also teach you how to listen to your hormones and understand how to adjust our framework to better suit your unique hormonal imbalances. So very cool right? We cover ACES (the talk of cortisol, insulin, stress and blood sugar), RAMP (how to know if you’re over-exercising), CRAMPS (what your female hormones are telling you) and the foundations it all rests on: our 5 Habits and the 5 Pillars. This episode is a thank you and a virtual hug to all of the women we’ve had the honor to share our work with. We hope you enjoy this big picture and bit of a sneak-peak into Hangry!
