This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, we’re diving into lymphatic health, breast wellness, and reproductive care with Leah Levitan, a certified lymphatic therapist and founder of Lymph Love Club. Leah shares her personal journey with fibrocystic breasts, how lymphatic drainage plays a critical role in breast cancer prevention, and why so many women experience puffy armpits, breast congestion, and pelvic stagnation—plus what to do about it.
We break down the importance of lymph flow for hormone balance, detoxification, and immune support, covering topics like bras, deodorants, scar tissue, and endometriosis. Leah also shares practical at-home techniques to improve lymphatic function and overall well-being.
