Biohacking with Brittany Podcast

What if your symptoms weren’t “in your head”—but the medical system made you believe they were?

In this raw and revealing conversation, Dr. Amie Hornaman, host of The Thyroid Fixer podcast, opens up about being misdiagnosed six times, dismissed by doctors, and told she was “fine” while her health was falling apart. From a shocking uterine cancer scare to relentless thyroid struggles, she shares how she refused to be gaslit and started trusting her intuition instead.

We dive into the functional testing, unconventional therapies, and emotional resilience it takes to heal when the system fails you—and why every woman needs to be her own advocate.

08:30 – “I was misdiagnosed six different times”—the red flags Dr. Amie finally refused to ignore

14:00 - Persevering to finding out the truth after all the misdiagnoses

19:00 - The four most important words a medical practitioner should ask you

In this raw solo episode, I’m calling out three pieces of “wellness propaganda” I refuse to follow—sleep training, daycare before age 3, and slathering on chemical sunscreen all day. 

Expect science-backed research, mom-life honesty, and feminine-first biohacks that protect our babies’ nervous systems and our own hormones. 

If you’re a high-achieving mom who’s tired of being told to override intuition for convenience, this conversation is for you. DM me the “propaganda” you’re ditching on Instagram.

I TALK ABOUT: 

08:00 – Propaganda #1: Sleep training vs. respecting an infant’s circadian rhythm and HPA-axis development

15:10 – Attachment parenting, intuitive nap cues, and why I ditched the Huckleberry tracking app

19:00 – Propaganda #2: Daycare cortisol spikes, behavioral dysregulation, and why grandparent care wins for under-threes

26:40 – Rejecting the 40-hour grind and building a feminine-flow business around motherhood
