Summary

The average woman applies 180 chemicals to her body every single day, and most of them are quietly disrupting her hormones, her cycle, and her fertility.

0:00.0	I am probably the cover girl of caregiver syndrome.
0:02.5	I was so driven to not say no to people and patients that I actually wasn't even consciously aware of how much pain that I was in.
0:09.2	As these symptoms started to grow, you just leaned in and just with your own stubborn willpower just pushed through these days.
0:17.3	I need to be there for everyone and feeling that caregiver guilt, but at the same time, to be a caregiver, you have to take care of yourself.
0:23.4	I was also living in mold.
0:25.0	And then finally one day, I woke up and I'm like, I'm fed up.
0:27.6	I'm going to take the line that self-care is not selfish and I'm going to figure out what's

0:54.0	and kind of turning a blind eye to
0:55.5	fragrance, paribins, and thylates.
0:57.0	I'm really proud of you because maybe my message inspired you, but you really went on this
1:01.4	journey by yourself.
1:02.6	What's next for Madison Breca?
1:04.2	I am working on something that has taken over a year.
1:07.2	I have a lot of great minds behind it.
1:10.2	And... year. I have a lot of great minds behind it. And,
1:10.9	And,
