Counting calories is out. All the food groups are in. Becoming trim and healthy doesn’t have to be difficult or painstaking anymore. After trying almost every fad diet out there… sisters Serene Allison and Pearl Barrett, authors of the best-selling Trim Healthy Mama book series, took matters into their own hands and The Food Freedom Movement was born. This podcast offers a deeper dive into the world of THM. Listen in as the girls tackle a variety of food, fitness and lifestyle topics with the same quirky attitude and style that has endeared them to an ever-growing audience of women who are changing their lives and the lives of their families. Welcome to The Poddy!

For decades, Haley tried everything—diet pills, starvation, counting points, quick fixes. Nothing lasted.Sugar still had a grip. Inflammation kept building. Migraines, brain fog, stiffness, and exhaustion became her “normal.” By her late 30s, she quietly believed this was just aging.In this episode of Transformation Stories, Haley shares how small, sustainable changes—starting with breakfast—led to food freedom, clarity, and lasting health. She didn't chase weight loss… yet 40–50 pounds fell off naturally, and she's kept it off for 13 years through hormones, motherhood, and real life.If you've ever thought “I've tried everything” or “it's too late,” this story will change how you see what's possible.

What if nothing is “wrong”… it's just not finished yet? If you've been showing up, doing the right things, choosing wisdom—and still wondering why the results feel invisible—this episode is for you. Today's Patient Potty is all about patience as a skill, not a personality trait. We talk about why real, lasting change often looks painfully slow at first—and how God, nature, and even our own bodies are wired for long games, not instant wins. We open with Scripture on endurance and hope, then zoom out to powerful reminders from history and nature: bamboo that grows roots for years before shooting up overnight, sequoias that take centuries to tower, fruit trees that refuse to be rushed. Along the way, we share real-life “slow mastery” stories—strength training that finally pays off in real moments, metabolism changes you can't see day-to-day, learning singular focus, navigating the fine line between help and control in marriage, and the quiet confidence that comes from staying planted. And yes… we also have huge news in a small package:Seven Skills to Lasting Health is officially available for pre-order—a short, doable THM primer designed to make consistency feel possible again. Pre-order bonuses include 7 mini-podcasts and professionally filmed recipe videos to help you start right away.If you've been tempted to quit because progress feels slow, this episode is your reminder:The harvest doesn't come early—but it always comes on time.

After the holidays, many women wake up in January feeling puffy, discouraged, and convinced they need to do something drastic to fix it fast. In this episode, we talk about why extreme diets—like fasting, keto, carnivore, boot camps, and heavy restriction—backfire for women, and what's really happening inside your body when food becomes punishment instead of nourishment. We cover metabolism, muscle loss, hormones (including perimenopause and menopause), gut health, and the shame-based thinking that keeps so many women stuck. If you've ever thought, “I've failed again,” this is for you. This is not about going harder in January. It's about returning—gently and wisely—to what actually works. ✨ You are not broken. ✨ You are not too far gone. ✨ And you don't have to punish yourself to heal.

If you've felt rushed, pressured, or pulled into fast decisions lately — pause. This episode is for you.Serene shares two recent moments where fear-based “act now” tactics almost won — one through a fake phone warning with a countdown, and another through a polished online funnel using AI to impersonate trusted voices. It sparked a bigger conversation we all need right now: urgency is rarely wisdom.From food choices to holiday pressure to New Year resets, we unpack why the loudest thoughts aren't usually the wisest ones — and how learning to pause changes everything.In this episode: • Why “act now” pressure is often a trap • How fear hijacks your decision-making • What urgency looks like with food and cravings • Why quick fixes backfire • How wisdom, community, and the Wonderful Counselor lead to better choicesJoin Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).Welcome to the spot where Pearl and Serene share their knowledge and their hearts (along with Danny's antics) on topics ranging from physical and mental health to spiritual truth, and, yes… even a little comic relief.

Is your home quietly working against your health? In this powerful and practical episode, we sit down with Stephen Ezell, founder of Truly Free Home, to talk about the hidden toxins lurking in everyday household products—especially in the laundry room. We've all been told that if something smells clean, it is clean. But Stephen helps us pull back the curtain on “clean smells,” dryer sheets, dishwashers, detergents, and so-called green products that may actually be disrupting hormones, irritating skin, and impacting long-term health—especially for our kids. This is not a fear-based conversation. It's a hope-filled, doable discussion for real life. We talk about how to take meaningful steps toward a healthier home without becoming extreme, overwhelmed, or broke. In this episode, we cover:• Why the laundry room may be the most toxic room in your house• How fragrance loopholes and “blue goo” fool well-meaning families• What actually matters most when you're prioritizing non-toxic living• Simple, budget-friendly swaps that make the biggest difference• How voting with our dollars can shift entire markets toward health Whether you're just starting to question what's under your sink or you've already made some clean swaps, this episode will meet you where you are and help you take your next best step with clarity and confidence.

If you have ever felt like you are doing “all the things” and still not seeing progress, this poddy is for you. In this episode we invite our longtime friend and executive coach Kris Honeycutt to sit in the hot seat with us and talk straight to the woman who feels defeated in her health, hormones, weight, or even family life. Kris walked through one of the hardest valleys a mama can face and God gave her a simple “battle plan” to get out of the pit. She is sharing that with you today so you can pick up hope again. This is not another “try harder” lecture. This is about partnering with God, shifting your mindset out of orphan thinking, and learning how to stay in the journey even when the scale or your circumstances are not budging yet. In this episode we talk about: What to do when you are discouraged and ready to quit The simple three step “battle plan” Kris uses every morning Letting go of your timeline without letting go of God's promises How to invite God into your weight loss and health journey Why your 40s, 50s, and 60s are actually a powerful season, not “the end” How coaching and community can finally get you unstuck If you have ever whispered, “Maybe this just will not work for me,” come sit with us.

If you've ever been told “your labs are normal” while you're dragging through the day, freezing in the summer, losing hair, gaining weight, or feeling like you are walking through mud, this Poddy is for you. Today we're sitting down with our dear friend Jess Meyers. Many of you know her as our long-time community manager, and now as “Kiaora Jess.” She lost 150 pounds on Trim Healthy Mama, but the final breakthrough in her health and metabolism did not happen until she addressed one huge missing piece: her thyroid. In this episode we talk about: Why so many women are told they're “fine” when their thyroid is absolutely not fine. The difference between “in range” and optimized thyroid numbers. The symptoms nobody connects to thyroid: cold all the time, constipation, crashes and naps, brain fog, dry eyes, puffiness, hair thinning, slow weight loss or no weight loss at all. How the Kiora thyroid program was built over more than two years of testing, refining, and caring for real women in real bodies. Powerful stories from women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s who are now experiencing steady energy, better sleep, better moods, warmer body temps, stronger hair and nails, easier weight loss or maintenance, and even renewed joy and desire in their marriages. We're not doctors, just three women sharing our journeys of being dismissed, fighting to be heard, and finally getting thyroid help that actually moved the needle. If you're tired of being told “you're normal” while everything in your body screams that you're not, pull up a chair, mama. You are not crazy. You are not lazy. You just need the right support, the right tests, and the right treatment. This is the thyroid Poddy we wish we could have listened to years ago.

In today's episode, we sit down with one of the world's leading “Naturalist” facial surgeons, Dr. Athré, for an informative look at the topic of natural facial rejuvenation. This conversation is simply for those who are curious about what modern, options actually involve, it is not to promote or push any form of facial treatment. We explore topics like fat transfer, stem cells, and awake facelifts. What they mean, how they work, and why some approaches achieve far more natural results than others. Dr. Athré explains what happens when fat is transferred from one area of the body to the face, how stem cells contribute to long-term collagen support, and why tiny-cannula techniques can lead to soft looking, long, youthful results. We also touch on everyday choices that support healthy skin at any age. If you've ever wondered how natural-looking refreshment can be achieved or simply want a clearer understanding of modern rejuvenation methods, this episode offers a grounded, myth-busting overview without promoting any particular procedure.

We sat down with our dear friend and coach, KJ, for one of the most real, hilarious, and hope-filled conversations we've had yet. KJ opened up about her three-year stall. The frustration, the menopause symptoms, the pain, and what finally led to her breakthrough. From discovering the power of hormone balance and strength training to walking into a gym for the first time (and eventually loving it!), her story will make you laugh, nod your head, and maybe tear up a little too. Of course, this is KJ… so in true KJ fashion, it's equal parts inspiring and laugh-out-loud funny including a Walmart story you'll never forget.

Stephen introduces the company's core value of “Golden Rule Care,” a commitment to lovingly support every woman who walks through the hormone restoration program.

Instead of clinging to pain, she learned how to hurl it off and in taking that step, she found healing and freedom.

If you've ever felt stuck in pain or weighed down by old or new wounds, this episode will encourage you to learn how to let go and walk lighter and healthier.

We've always been the “tell it like it is” sisters… and this might be our most honest episode yet. When I (Pearl) changed my profile photo, I got a lot of comments and questions. Had I been doing anything different to my skin care routine? I shared how Serene and I had just had fat grafting (using our own fat and stem cells to restore our skin as part of full facial rejuvenation procedures.) The internet backlash was instant! Words like vain, fake, even unbiblical came flying our way. So we're pulling back the curtain on the whole story: why we did it, what really happened in the recovery, the pressure we feel as public faces, and the surprising health breakthroughs that came with it. This isn't a push for anyone to do the same. It's a conversation about choice, aging, beauty, and the way women can either lift each other up or tear each other down. You'll hear the good, the bad, and the ugly (literally), plus plenty of laughs and raw sisterly honesty along the way. If you've ever wondered what it's really like to walk through something controversial in public, or how faith, confidence, and beauty collide, this episode will leave you thinking and maybe rethinking how we treat one another. About Dr. Raghu Athré: We entrusted our faces to the incredible care of Dr. Raghu Athré, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon based in Houston, TX. Known for his natural, restorative approach, Dr. Athré specializes in facial plastics and has helped countless women feel more confident while maintaining their authentic beauty.

What if the way you eat could reduce pain, fight depression, and even conquer cancer? That's what our dear friend Jordan Rubin is here to talk about. Jordan isn't just a bestselling author and the founder of Garden of Life and Ancient Nutrition. He's also someone who stared down a “100% fatal” cancer diagnosis and walked out healed. In this episode, we dig into his brand-new book The Biblio Diet, and let us tell you, it's not another fad. This is eating by the Book: God's wisdom on food paired with real-life, modern-day strategies that Jordan lived out in the fight for his life. From uncovering why 70% of what we call “food” today isn't even food, to giving you simple, practical ways to eat God's way in today's world, this conversation will fire you up with fresh hope. We couldn't put this one down and we know you won't want to either.

You're doing all the “right” things but something still feels off. Your energy's low. Your cycle's weird. Your hormones are all over the place. Could it be your body fat? In this episode, we're unpacking the truth about body fat percentage and why it matters so much more than your weight or BMI ever could. We'll talk about how your body was designed to carry more fat than a man's, and why that extra softness might be exactly what's keeping your hormones happy, your mind sharp, and your body thriving. You'll learn: • What a healthy body fat range really looks like for women • Why being “too lean” might be hurting your health • How to tell if your body fat is working for you or against you • What changes from your 20s to your post-menopause years This isn't a guilt trip or a fitness plan. It's a wake-up call for women who want to feel well, live strong, and stop obsessing over the wrong numbers. Join Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).

What do filthy teeth, cable cars, sugar-crazed monkeys, and salad dripping through a handbag at 30,000 feet have in common? More than you think. In this wild ride of an episode, we dive into the gross, the hilarious, and the downright shocking moments that expose how sugar isn't just a “treat”, it's a force hijacking our brains, bodies, and even our families. From monkeys going feral over candy to kids bouncing off the walls on Capri Suns, we draw the line between the animal kingdom and our checkout aisles. You'll definitely rethink the snacks in your pantry. Buckle up, this one swings from outrageous travel stories to life-changing truths about health, addiction, and why sugar might just be the most dangerous pet we've all let into our homes.

Are you settling for “just okay” in your health, marriage, or faith? We believe you were created for so much more, and this conversation is all about waking up to that truth. In this episode we dive into what it really means to contend and why it is not about hustling harder but about living with a spark of hope that pushes you forward. We talk about breaking free from comfort zones, using imagination to build inner peace and joy, and grabbing hold of the fruits of the Spirit in real and practical ways. We also share how contending shows up in our marriages, our health, and even in how we approach aging well, from visualizing God's promises to using simple but powerful tools like strength training and modern wellness practices. Life is too short to coast. God's abundance is waiting, and we want to cheer you on as you rise up, refuse to settle, and step boldly into the fullness He has for you.

This week we sit down with Jennifer, a long-time Trim Healthy Mama who has walked through some of life's hardest valleys and found freedom on the other side. She first discovered us in 2012 after a pregnancy that left her sick for nine months and then struggling with weight gain. Trim Healthy Mama gave her the tools to turn her health around, but her journey didn't stop there. Over the years she has faced postpartum struggles, divorce, single parenting, and even the heartbreak of losing her children temporarily during COVID. Through stress, sleepless nights, and stubborn weight that wouldn't budge, she learned how to rebuild her health with simple, doable steps. Most of all, she discovered the faithfulness of God and how small daily habits can carry you through the darkest times. If you have ever felt stuck, stressed, or ready to give up, Jennifer's story will remind you that health and hope are always within reach. Jenn's Bio: Coach Jen (Mason) Felker has been living the Trim Healthy Mama lifestyle since 2012 and was one of the first to join the official coaching program when it launched in 2018. She began blogging about THM at thewellplannedkitchen.com in 2014. Since then, she has coached well over 4,000 Trim Healthy Mamas. Coach Jen teaches busy women how to put THM on autopilot so they can get on plan, stay on plan, and get healthy for life. Join Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).

We could not wait for you to hear Marissa's story. She's a mama of two who has walked through a lot and come out the other side with so much wisdom and hope. From growing up with drive-thru dinners to battling sugar addiction, from the exhaustion of early motherhood to finding out she had underlying genetic challenges like double MTHFR, her journey is powerful. After a traumatic first birth left her depleted and stuck in the diet cycle, Marisa knew she needed a change. She shares how she broke free from old habits, kicked her soda addiction, and found a way of eating that truly nourished her body through Trim Healthy Mama. She talks about the small daily habits that made the biggest difference, the mindset shifts that helped her leave the diet rat race behind, and the faith that carried her every step of the way. This conversation is full of laughter, real talk, and heartfelt moments. Marisa opens up about choosing whole foods over quick fixes, calming her nervous system, and finding the peace of God in her motherhood journey. If you are feeling stuck, craving encouragement, or wondering if transformation is possible for you, this episode will remind you that you are not broken and you are not alone.

Today we're discussing women's health from the teen years all the way into the golden years. We get to the root of why so many girls and women are struggling with body image, low energy, irregular cycles, and broken identities. We cover it all: the dangers of undereating and calorie obsession in teen girls, how birth control may be messing with hormones and mental health more than we realize, and the critical need for healthy fats, carbs, protein, and strength training, no matter your age or stage. We get real about how muscle isn't just for aesthetics. It's your hormonal armor. And if you're in your 20s or 30s and think you can just coast, we're here to lovingly shake you. What you do now sets up your future health, bone strength, metabolism, and emotional well-being. Whether you've got young daughters, you're walking through perimenopause, or you're 70 and still swinging those kettlebells, this is for you. We even share stories from our coaching retreats that will make you laugh, cry, and feel like you're not alone in the journey. This more than a conversation. It's a wake-up call to stop shrinking physically, emotionally, and mentally, and start fueling your body with the love, nutrients, and strength it deserves.

Arden shares his remarkable story of overcoming stage 4 cancer, while Bowen opens up about shifting from fast food mornings to meal-prepping dad mode. Together, they break down what's really holding men back from their health goals (hint: it's not time, age, or bad genetics) and why accountability and identity are everything.

Get ready to laugh, cry, and maybe do a few push-ups. Key Topics: • The truth about male fitness, mindset, and motivation • Why men listen better to men and how wives can finally step back • Building a movement of spiritually and physically strong men • Real talk on identity, discipline, and the power of showing up • How Undefeated Men is transforming homes, marriages, and legacies To Learn More: Visit undefeatedmen.com to join the 90-day coaching program.

On this episode of the PODDY, we're bringing in one of our very first Trim Healthy Mama coaches Heather, to share her story. And oh, what a story it is. Heather opens up about her journey through anorexia, binge eating and pregnancy loss. She takes us back to a time when her identity was wrapped up in the number on the scale, and how that scale held power over her until God led her to freedom through the Trim Healthy way. Heather shares about how she has discovered this lifestyle isn't just about weight loss or gain. It's about breaking free from perfectionism, body shame, and the mental battle so many of us face. Heather's been walking this out for 12 years now, and her testimony is full of hope, healing, and hard-won wisdom. If you've ever felt not enough, stuck in an eating disorder, addicted to sugar, or just unsure how to nourish your body well, this is for you. Whether you're trying to lose weight, gain weight, balance hormones, or simply feel like yourself again, Heather's story will speak to your heart. We laughed, we even cried a little, and we left this conversation feeling so encouraged. We know you will too. Join Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).

Cindy's journey started at 444 pounds — carrying not just the weight of her body, but the emotional burden of childhood trauma, constant bullying, and a lifetime of failed diets. She had tried it all: Keto, Paleo, Weight Watchers, even running in place at 12 years old in a plastic sauna suit. Nothing worked — until she was gifted a Trim Healthy Mama book and found Coach Amy. That was the moment things started to change. This time, Cindy didn't just diet. She fueled her body with purpose. She gave herself grace. She started slow, stayed consistent, and found support through the THM community and trauma therapy. The result? Over 100 pounds lost (and counting) — and a woman who's finally learning to love herself from the inside out.

Heather found herself 60 pounds heavier and stuck in a cycle of sugar addiction. After three pregnancies and the emotional and physical rollercoaster that came with them… her breakthrough finally came after baby number three. This time, she approached THM with intention—studying the principles, taking them seriously, and embracing the truth behind them. The result? Rapid (but sustainable) fat-loss and a total shift in how she viewed her body. Heather discovered that control isn't a dirty word—it's freedom. By learning how to fuel her body with health, she broke free from stress and anxiety around food. Now, she moves forward with confidence. While she doesn't always stick to THM recipes (her husband handles most of the cooking), she still anchors every meal in protein. And she dialed in the details of the THM Plan to guide her family's nutrition. Check Out some of the Tools that Helped Her Below!

We are so excited to introduce Coach Amy as the Director of the Coach Program for Trim Healthy Mama! Today, she joins us to chat about the confidence that comes from small, consistent changes—just like the 1% progress model from Atomic Habits. We talk about how stacking little wins, one choice at a time, leads to lasting transformation—not just in our health, but in our mindset and confidence too. If you've ever felt stuck or overwhelmed, this conversation will remind you that consistency, not perfection, is what creates the real change we're all longing for.

What would happen if we set down sugar for 40 days? Back in 2014, Wendy began—with an organic movement—asking herself and other women this very question… And the movement caught on! The thousands who joined her realized part way into it that this wasn't just about a health fast– it was a spiritual fast. Wendy and her friends were faced with the fact that they'd been going to sugar for comfort, instead of going to God. Rather than going from sugar-high to sugar-high, it was time to turn back to the Most High! In this podcast we discuss the physical, mental and spiritual benefits that happened when women joined Wendy and fasted from sugar for 40 days. And how that led to a future life free from sugar's bondage for so many. (And how that crossed paths with Trim Healthy Mama.) Wendy Speake is the author of multiple books, including The 40-Day Sugar Fast, The 40-Day Social Media Fast, and The 40-Day Feast. She's also co-author of the popular parenting book Triggers: Exchanging Parents' Angry Reactions for Gentle, Biblical Responses. Known for the uncanny way she meets women in their most common struggles, from sugar-addiction to mommy-anger, Wendy uses every opportunity to point readers to the healing and transforming power found in God's Word.

The Meat: What is the gist of what we've been saying the last couple of years? Bring back the hormones (BRHT): The health fat loss can take time, when you're on BHRT. Sometimes you gain first, when you're on estrogen, for instance. Get the carbs back (Celebrate Carbs!): When your metabolism is healing, there's a bit of bounce back. You gain some weight, and then will lose later. Trust the process. Eat your protein (25 grams per meal): The muscle to fat ratio is changing when you start increasing your protein intake Go get in the gym (Lift heavy!): This journey isn't about being thin – it's about being STRONG. But you are becoming a burner! And someone just told us: “I've been doing everything you've said! And I'm gaining weight, not losing. What do I do??” And our message is: You're on a healing journey. Emphasis on the journey. It's taking time. You don't always drop weight immediately. Sometimes you gain first. Don't give up. Embrace the uniqueness of your body Join Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).Welcome to the spot where Pearl and Serene share their knowledge and their hearts (along with Danny's antics) on topics ranging from physical and mental health to spiritual truth, and, yes… even a little comic relief.

Episode 435: Rebuild Your Microbiome The Meat: What are the top 3 ways to rebuild your microbiome and the health of your gut? You want an INVINCIBLE microbiome! We're giving you the keys to the car. Number #1: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome…KEFIR. (Not the store bought stuff). Traditional, home fermented kefir. You can get powders from Cultured Food Life (our partner). Even those who think it's too hard… You can do it! You get up to 50 strains of healing bacteria… Drink daily if you can. Purchase Easy Starter: https://store.trimhealthymama.com/product/easy-kefir-powder/ Number #2: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome… BAOBAB. Up to 2-3 TBSP per day Regular baobab consumption significantly increases gut microbiome diversity, as seen in both Hadza tribespeople and modern users, supporting better metabolic health. Baobab helps lower blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity, partly due to its tartness and powerful polyphenols like epicatechin and procyanidins. It naturally promotes GLP-1 production, mimicking the effects of some blood sugar-lowering medications, especially when combined with kefir. Baobab is 70–80% fiber, with two-thirds being prebiotic, which fuels gut bacteria and leads to the creation of health-boosting postbiotics. Buy Our Baobab: https://store.trimhealthymama.com/product/baobab-boost-powder-11oz-bag/ Number #3: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome… Fermented Plants. Compared to high-fiber foods alone, fermented veggies show significantly stronger and faster gut-health benefits. Fermented veggies increase gut microbe diversity, improving whole-body health and immune function. They help lower blood lipids, reduce inflammation, and support healthy weight and blood pressure. Fermented foods reduce the activation of immune cells and decrease inflammatory proteins like interleukin 6. The Power Veggies?

Sometimes we need reminders in the most basic ways… and today we're back to the most basic reminder. We gotta talk about it… Sugar. People tell us all the time how they feel addicted to sugar. Sugar is the villain in the story of epigenetics. It actually exploits all of the bad things in your genetics! If there is one real “bad guy” – it is white, refined SUGAR. It can cause decay in emotions, in relationships, in your mind. Yes, there are foundational issues that it causes – insulin spikes, chronic inflammation, microbiome disruption, and dopamin dysregulation. But there are deeper destructive pathways that are hacked by sugar… You need to know what it is doing to your DNA! Negative DNA changes can be directly traced unhealthy sugar consumption. A couple easy recipes to help the Snack Needs and GGMS: An easy non-sugar hack… THM Protein Ball Recipe INGREDIENTS: 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes (shredded) 3 Tbs TH Integral Collagen 1⁄4 cup TH Pristine Protein Powder or TH Optimized Whey Protein Powder, flavor of choice 1⁄2 cup extra virgin coconut oil 2 tsp TH Natural Burst Vanilla Extract 2 pinches TH Mineral Salt 2 tsp TH Super Sweet Blend 1 Tbs unsweetened almond milk INSTRUCTIONS: 1.

The Banter: No show socks for men… yes or no? Team Serene against or pro? The Meat: Supplements and how or do they matter? Over the years doing this Trim Healthy thing we started developing a few different supplement lines. This happened a number of times with different companies. But we had to stop the process every time. We felt like we were just going through the motions to launch supplements (like a sexy multivitamin) and they wouldn't really help people (even though they could make our company money and perhaps turn some people's pee bright yellow). That didn't sit right in our guts. Everything changed when we had a deep conversation with Jordan Rubin (author of The Maker's Diet) on his regenerative farm. We talked about ancient healing and the things from the earth our forefathers knew to use to optimize health. And that's where our Bio-Organ Therapy line had its genesis! We knew this ancient path would lead us to developing supplements that would actually bring therapeutic benefits. Basic nutrition (what we eat) is foundational but many of us need or want something more when living in this day and age where toxins abound and viruses of all kinds threaten. Using regenerative animal organs, mushrooms, potent plant extracts and healthy bacteria, we developed 3 incredible supplements with a team of naturally minded supplements. We take the principles of like-treats-like, and this ancient philosophy, and have made each one into something truly transformative. Introducing the 3-pronged Bio-Organ Therapy! During this show, we navigate through all the benefits of these supplements. Why would you take them? How they work. What supplements can they replace and many more questions answered. 1.

The Banter: If your man wants to increase his testosterone levels and he doesn't want to get on T therapy yet… jury is back… chopping wood is the best T booster. The Meat: Time to talk about a new detox program…it's one of the healthiest things you can do but it's probably not what you're thinking. Serene leads this one… she's detoxing from… Serene! Others can see us more clearly than the way we see ourselves. How do we want to show up to others… even when we think (know) we're right and they don't get it? Do we really see ourselves in our conversations? Are we just retorting with “ping pong” answers or can we take a real, good, long, raw, truthful look at ourselves and how we react to the ones we interact with? If we get honest… if we really humble ourselves, there is such joy… true sweet joy that comes with saying sorry. There's actually physical healing in a sorry when it is needed. Detoxing from yourself is healing for your whole mind and body and Serene shares her own journey into baby stepping into this letting go of her old self and growing into the new.

The Banter: After getting back from Japan, we have a proposal being given for adult uniforms. For everyday life – like work, and normal routines – uniforms are in (no thoughts necessary). But for going out on dates with husbands, you can wear all kinds of clothes. The Meat: It's time for Pearl's proverbs. Yes, truth bombs from the big sister. Teeth don't brush themselves... Our microbiome doesn't flourish by itself. Your garden doesn't weed itself. So, when we go into menopause there are things we can do to make life healthier, do enrich ourselves, to make ourselves strong. There are things we can and SHOULD do. Otherwise they will atrophy by divine design. Here in our earthsuit, we must take care of it. If carbs are so BAD, why is Japan so GOOD?! Obesity is so rare in Japan, and it is dietary (not genetic. They love carbs. And have healthy portions. They also walk a lot... And you can truly see the beauty of humanity as you spend time in Japan. Let's not blame carbohydrates for the evils of our unhealthy culture. Because Japan is the land of carbs. There is a time for cheat meals. If your cheat meal is a double burger with fries and a frosty once a week, you're going to defeat all your efforts. But within reason, there is room for “Vitamin P.” Be a well-nourished woman. I don't want to be a stick. I don't want to be “skinny.” There are cultural pulls that tell us we have to be tiny people. But there is healthy fat, and healthy muscles that makes you a better, healthy more nourished woman. And we don't need to try for that unhealthy stereotype… nor should we. Let's embrace true health. Let's embrace being highly nourished. Join Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).

The Meat: We're bringing the “Bad Cop energy” again today (and when we say “we” we totally mean Serene). Bad cop has some good love… something to challenge your thought space with that can help you go higher into health. Here are some questions Bad Cop sister is posing: What if neonatal technology had ended decades ago? Preemie babies can now be saved at younger and younger stages. A few decades ago… babies younger than 30 weeks had little hope. What if aerotechnology stopped with air balloons and never made it to plane mode? Flying to see family at Thanksgiving wouldn't be a thing. What if dentistry had stopped at wooden teeth? We'd have mouths full of brown pegs! The point is that this world has always needed and benefited from pioneers that refused to stop! There is something extraordinary about seeking new revelation, new ideas, and cutting edge breakthroughs. But those new ideas and new technologies don't come to people who simply give up, who say… good is good enough. That's where we are with Trim Healthy Mama. We're going to higher levels, and we're exploring new territory...we're embracing WISDOM. We want to keep moving forward. The heart message behind all of this “Bad Cop” energy… truth is not just a place where you ARRIVE… it is a process of learning more and more from God. We want you to come along with us on this truth adventure… to not get stagnant and refuse to move along. Let's always embrace new pastures even when it challenges our current comfortable one.

The Meat: It's time to call a spade a spade. We used to avoid calling certain foods “bad”… too triggering we were told. But times up on all that. Some foods are bad… let's call them what they are… in fact we'll go a step further and call them DECEPTIVE. Because, in fact, they're not food at all. In this poddy, we determine what is food and what is not and set the record straight. Superfood Spotlight: Today we discuss the benefits of BEANS. They feed the good gut bugs, produce butyrate, fight colon cancer, and promote longevity in the body… Yes, they are carbohydrates, but they're easy on blood sugar.

Today we're highlighting chapter 57 in Trim Healthy Wisdom— Bio-Organ Therapy. What is bio-organ therapy, you ask? We are thrilled to host our friend, and fellow health enthusiast Jordan Rubin to discuss! We talk about supplements… what is a waste of money and what is worth taking? If there is one supplement to take… what would it be? We also talk about soil and regenerative farming, huge passions of Jordan. A successful entrepreneur (the founder of Ancient Nutrition), Jordan Rubin is regarded by many as the most respected and beloved natural health expert in America. His personal account of his battle and triumph over Crohn's disease has resonated with millions around the world and is one of the most dramatic natural health stories ever told. Purchase Jordan's books here and visit www.AncientNutrition.com for more information To do our deep dive on this topic, read Trim Healthy Wisdom Chapter 57 Bio-Organ Therapy.

Today we have a special guest–our long-time friend, Dianne Rogers. She shares her incredible story of recovery from COVID-19. She was one of the earliest and toughest covid cases and neared death's door many times. She was hospitalized, in a coma and on a ventilator for months. She had muscular paralysis that put her in a wheel chair and she had to rehabilitate every aspect of normal movement. People all over the earth were praying for Dianne's healing. Despite medical predictions, she was miraculously able to turn the corner. She shares how Trim Healthy Principles, baobab and Essential Amino acids played a crucial her healing journey. And she asks a great question to the audience: Do you want to be healed or not? If you do, what are you willing to do for it? _____________________ Meet us in person!

The Banter: In the banter today Danny brings the most often asked THM questions and answers (according to ChatGPT). And then there's a (rated PG) comical discussion about men's underwear. The Meat: Spend your time doing what really matters for your purpose. Ask yourself this: “What is my purpose?” If it doesn't meet that purpose, be willing to cut it out of your calendar! And then double-down, and commit yourself to doing the things that are your passion, and that fulfill your God-given destiny. If we focus on PASSION and PURPOSE, we will thrive. But, for the record, we are not going to try to be all-things-to-all people with the Trim Healthy Mama business. We know who we are, and we want to invite all into experiencing this incredible path. If it's not the fit for you and your lifestyle, no worries! But we're not going to change to try to appeal to everyone. We'll lose our identity in the process. We're going to passionately be TRIM HEALTHY MAMA. Join Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).

For this episode of “Talking to the Experts” we are thrilled to have healthy light expert Dan Huber. Huber's life took a dramatic turn during the 2008 mortgage crisis, leaving his family of seven in financial ruin. But his challenges didn't end there. After moving into a rental home, mysterious illnesses and weight gain plagued the family, culminating 5 years later in the discovery of a catastrophic mold infestation. Determined to find answers, Dan's first step was learning about the importance of healthy light. Once he started blocking unhealthy blue-light, he was able to heal. Huber embraced alternative approaches to health and founded Lucia Eyes (www.luciaeyes.com), a blue-light-blocking glasses company, turning his recovery into a mission. Dan has a special discount for the Trim Healthy Mama audience! Wisit www.LuciaEyes.com and use coupon code: trimhealthy20 to save 20% off. What is the value of blocking blue light?

Some days we talk about where we've arrived… and sometimes we talk about our raw process, and where we HAVEN'T really arrived. Today we're talking about praying in the early morning hours. We talk physics, we talk the Bible, putting away our devices, and resetting the parasympathetic system. And we end with commitments. What are we going to do to push through to the next level?! _____________________ Join Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).

We're jumping into the very important topic of how your significant other influences your health journey. This is a really personal topic, but it's important to talk about. Charlie (Pearl's hubby), for instance, is actually allergic to “organic” and “fresh” things. He doesn't have the best instance. And he's happy with the curves. Sam (Serene's hubby), on the other hand has a little bit more warmth toward healthy food. He goes with the flow. How much do we let our husband influence our Healthy journey? Because the way we answer this question can really influence how well you do in your healthy choices … everything from food to working out, and many other things!

The Meat: The very core of Trim Healthy Mama is contending for HEALTH. When we didn't have money, we contended for health. When we didn't have all the answers, we contended for the truth. THM isn't just here so you can eat low-carb cake! We're not here to just get down to a healthy weight on the scale. We want to encourage you to push higher, That's how we started with our first book… now with new things to share… that's how we are continuing. Our original book pushed the envelope. And that's who we are. This doesn't mean you have to implement everything all at once. Little by little is the way but remaining open to new knowledge is so important for growth. Some people have said we've changed, but the truth is that we have ALWAYS wanted to do the best of both worlds… the ancient wisdom of crunchy, healthy living, AND the best of sound, cutting-edge science. We want to always keep growing! The Banter: If you want love on your vacation, you can't throw away your husband's toothpaste. Join Pearl and Serene on the Trim Healthy Podcast (a.k.a. “The Poddy”).

A lot of people are asking us, “What is insulin resistance?” and “Do I have it?” We're going to give you a different take on what it is! In fact, we're going to broaden the definition. What age does muscle decline start? Every year after 30, but it starts to escalate in the mid-30s. But even a young person that's sitting in the house with a device all day can be in decline... we experienced it early because we were vegan, and our muscles began to decline. But what does muscle and insulin resistance have to do with each other? The muscle as an organ is made to uptake insulin to accept protein, and blood sugar. But if you don't have the ability to absorb insulin (deflating muscles, less lean muscle tissue) then you are experiencing some degree of insulin resistance. If you're just thinking about weight loss, you can fall into insulin resistance (because you are losing muscle mass). Proper amounts of protein are absolutely essential to prevent this decline. So you have to reverse this muscle decline through consumption of protein, cleaning your muscle cells with a high plant intake, utilizing healthy carbs and strength training–you have to become a BURNER.
