In this episode of She's in Sync, Taylor sits down with Isabel Vitale, founder and CEO of SIV Care, for a deep dive into the skin microbiome.

Isabel Vitale is the founder and CEO of SIV Care, a skincare company focused on harnessing your skin's own biology to build resilience. After starting her career in pediatric skincare and seeing how persistent eczema and dermatitis could be, she began researching the skin microbiome. That led her to formulate and launch the first spore-based topical serum designed to support the skin microbiome, alongside a spore-based probiotic that targets the gut-skin axis.

Why Birth Control Doesn't Solve PCOS/PMOS — And What Really Does

Taylor Lechner — Mon, 25 May 2026 10:22:00 GMT

In this episode, Taylor explores the complex yet often misunderstood condition of PCOS/PMOS. She debunks myths surrounding birth control as a solution, and highlight the importance of personalized, root-cause focused strategies to restore hormonal health and fertility. Perfect for women seeking sustainable solutions beyond symptom suppression.

This episode was recorded prior to the proposed terminology shift from PCOS to PMOS (Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome).

This change is a huge step in the right direction because — as you'll hear throughout this episode — this condition involves far more than ovarian cysts alone.

Polyendocrine recognizes the involvement of multiple hormone systems (including insulin and androgens).
Metabolic highlights the important whole-body impacts, including insulin resistance, weight/metabolic changes, and cardiovascular risk.

Ovarian preserves the reproductive and ovulatory aspects of the condition.
Syndrome reflects that this is a cluster of symptoms and presentations rather than a single, one-size-fits-all disease.

Takeaways:

How PCOS/PMOS is diagnosed and common misdiagnoses, including hypothalamic amenorrhea
The critical role of gut health, nutrient deficiencies, and minerals in managing PCOS
The importance of comprehensive functional lab testing and custom protocols for lasting results

Painful Periods and Endometriosis: Root Causes Beyond Birth Control

Taylor Lechner — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 10:15:00 GMT

In this episode of She's in Sync, Taylor explores the root causes of painful periods and endometriosis, and explains why birth control does not address the underlying causes of period pain. The episode breaks down how inflammation, estrogen dominance, gut health imbalances, mineral and vitamin deficiencies, stress, insulin resistance, and poor detoxification contribute to debilitating menstrual cramps, heavy periods, and endometriosis symptoms—even when labs appear "normal." Listeners will learn why painful periods are common but not normal, how hormonal birth control can mask symptoms while worsening root causes, and what a root-cause, functional approach looks like for reducing period pain and supporting hormone health naturally.

Takeaways:

Painful periods are common but not normal, and are often driven by inflammation, mineral deficiencies, gut imbalances, estrogen dominance, and chronic stress rather than a simple hormone imbalance.
Hormonal birth control may temporarily mask period pain and endometriosis symptoms, but it does not address root causes and can worsen inflammation, nutrient depletion, and detox pathways over time.
Identifying and supporting the body's root drivers—through functional testing, targeted nutrition, mineral support, and gut and detox health—can significantly reduce period pain and improve quality of life
