Burnout, Balance & Feminist Hormones with Reshma Saujani.

This week, The House of Hormones welcomes a true trailblazer: Reshma Saujani, founder of Girls Who Code, founder and CEO of Moms First, bestselling author, TED speaker, and fearless advocate for gender equity. From standing on political stages to reshaping cultural conversations around work, motherhood, and womanhood, Reshma’s mission is bold and unapologetic: stop telling women to lean in, and start demanding that the system level up. In this raw, empowering, and deeply honest episode, Reshma opens up about burnout, hormonal wellness, emotional rage, resilience, and why these are not just medical issues, they’re feminist issues. We talk about midlife shifts, the truth about testosterone in women, imposter syndrome, and the movement toward normalizing period and hormone talk as part of everyday life. As the force behind Girls Who Code, Reshma has changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of girls in tech. But her advocacy goes far beyond STEM. With the Marshall Plan for Moms, she’s pushing for systemic change that values caregiving, redefines success, and finally puts women’s health, mental, emotional, hormonal, at the center. This episode is part pep talk, part call to arms, and all the real talk we need right now. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the weight of doing it all, stuck in midlife confusion, or fired up to change the rules, this one’s for you.
