"The guide offers a refreshing perspective on the female body, describing it as 'a complex, intelligent ecosystem capable of incredible healing when supported holistically.' An emphasis on attunement rather than compliance also makes this book unique in its genre." 
—Kirkus Reviews

"Drawing on insights from the realms of medicine, science, and personal experience, Restoring Balance is a persuasive and supportive guide to the nuances of women’s health."
—Foreword Clarion Reviews

“Just as women deserve agency in their careers and leadership journeys, they deserve agency and literacy in their health. Restoring Balance equips women with the knowledge to advocate for themselves and make informed decisions, while also challenging healthcare systems to evolve. It is both an empowering guide for individuals and a thoughtful blueprint for broader systems change.”
—SHEILA GUJRATHI, MD, biotech founder and CEO; physician-scientist; bestselling author, The Mirror Effect

“Restoring Balance is the right book at the right time. We are going through a renaissance of women’s health that seeks to understand health and disease states with more depth and sophistication. Women are seeking better answers for their hormone imbalances. Too often, prescription birth control pills are used as a way of controlling symptoms. Everything has a root cause, and the goal should be to find those causes for each individual. Restoring Balance provides a guide book on how to navigate many of the challenges a woman might face in her life.”
—ANDREW LENHARDT, MD, integrative physician; author, The Best of All Worlds and Emotional Intelligence in a Complex World / Substack “Middle Ground Medicine”

“Restoring Balance challenges the normalization of women’s symptoms, reframing them as signals of underlying biology. This book brings a much-needed scientific and systems-level perspective, linking the complex foundational biology of conditions that uniquely and disproportionately affect women with the realities of their lived experience. The endometriosis section is particularly effective, concisely integrating patient-reported experience with key insights into estrogen metabolism and immune dysregulation, reflecting a rigorous and clinically grounded approach.”
—ASHLEY ABEL, PHD, founder and CEO, Metri Bio (Endometriosis Therapeutics)

“Restoring Balance reframes women’s health with the depth and integration it has long deserved. As a breast cancer survivor, I recognize the power of moving beyond symptom management to truly understanding the body as a system. This book is both validating and empowering—offering women a path to reclaim agency, restore vitality, and trust the signals that matter most. A compelling collaboration, this work brings generational insight and scientific rigor to an age-old problem.”
—CYNTHIA BENTZEN MERCER, PHD, bestselling author; human capital strategist

“This book offers a timely and much-needed rethinking of how we approach chronic disease—particularly in women, who too often find their symptoms minimized, treated in isolation, or dismissed altogether. By integrating the rigor of modern medical care with a systems-level, functional perspective, the authors highlight the central roles of nutrition, movement, sleep, and social connection in addressing the underlying drivers of chronic disease and advancing more effective, patient-centered care.”
—MARY LYNNE HEDLEY, PHD, venture partner, Third Rock Ventures; senior scientific fellow, The Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT

“Women have been navigating a healthcare system that hasn’t always fully reflected their needs. Restoring Balance doesn’t just highlight these gaps; it offers practical solutions to help women improve their health and their lives while supporting clinicians in a more integrated approach to care.”
—AMANDA BANKS, MD, former biotech CEO and chief medical officer; founder, Banks Advisory; author, Hijacked

“Restoring Balance does an exceptional job of translating complex biology into clear, actionable insights for women. Drawing on scientific rigor, lived experiences, and the realities of current healthcare delivery, it bridges the gap between understanding and application in a way that is both credible and empowering, not only for women but for all stakeholders in the biotech and broader healthcare ecosystem.”
