Coffee First Thing, Fasted Workouts, and Why Your Morning Routine Is Wrecking Your Hormones in Midlife Morning fatigue isn't just about bad sleep — the first hour of your day shapes your hormone balance, metabolism, brain fog, and energy. Have you ever done everything "right" — fasted workout, coffee on an empty stomach, fasting until noon — and still felt more exhausted and anxious than ever? In this solo episode, I break down why those wellness habits are cortisol-wrecking chaos for a midlife woman. They were built for a twenty-five-year-old man's body, not yours. I'll walk you through six science-backed things to do before 9 AM that actually match your physiology, plus a twenty-minute version for busy mornings. Key Points The one simple swap that changes how women feel more than almost anything I recommend — and why order matters more than the habit. Why that "I can't function without coffee" feeling isn't an addiction — it's a hormonal clue most women miss. The reason your thyroid labs keep coming back "normal" while you still have every symptom of an underactive thyroid. How one client lost weight and got her energy back with six small morning swaps. We connect the dots between cortisol, the HPA axis, blood sugar, thyroid function, and metabolism — so you can finally understand why the "healthy" things you're doing might be working against you. Stop wasting time (and money) on products that don't work. My Trusted Brands Guide is the exact list I share with my private clients — the skincare, supplements, food, and wellness tools that have been tested and proven to deliver results. No fluff. No guesswork. Just the brands you can finally feel good about using. ✨ Plus, I scored exclusive discounts from some of these companies just for my community.

If you've been thinking, “What is going on with my body?” Today, you are getting your answers. You're going to learn the real science and brand-new research of perimenopause and menopause and the simple, research-backed changes that can help you feel stronger, calmer, and more in control, starting now. For way too long, women have been left guessing about hormone changes, weight gain, sleep issues, mood swings, and why workouts that used to “work” suddenly don't. Most of the advice out there is outdated, generalized, or based on bodies that are not female. That changes today. In this eye-opening episode, Mel brought back her most popular guest of all time: Dr. Stacy Sims, PhD, to give you the exact plan on how to train your body to adapt to the changes, instead of just “dealing with it.” Dr. Sims is a professor at Stanford and Auckland University of Technology, a world-renowned exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist, and a leading researcher on female-specific health and nutrition. She breaks down why menopause is not the end of you. It's just a transition, and with the right tools, your body can thrive for the next 40 years. Today's episode has solutions, including new information that goes beyond what has ever been shared on this podcast before. In this episode, you'll learn: -How to rewire your body to thrive without estrogen-Why belly fat shows up in menopause (and why it's not the same kind of fat as before) -The specific diet and nutrition that help with mood and sleep -What happens to your brain, mood, sleep, and body fat when estrogen drops -Why menopause is basically reverse puberty -The #1 thing that changes everything in midlife: heavy strength training (and how to start in 10 minutes) -The new cardio that works with menopause (short sprint intervals) and why “moderate hard” workouts always backfire -The injuries nobody warns you about – frozen shoulder and plantar fasciitis – and what to do about themBookmark this episode and share it with every single woman in your life. You do not have to live with symptoms that can be resolved, and you do not have to suffer. You can train your body to adapt to the changes – and you can start this week.

Have you ever considered that your exercise routine might be doing more harm than good for your hormonal health? Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney show! In this episode, I'm talking about the complex relationship between exercise and hormonal health, with a particular focus on female hormones. We'll look at the impacts of different types of exercise on the thyroid, adrenal glands, and sex hormones, such as estrogen and progesterone and how both over-exercising and under-exercising can disrupt hormone balance, leading to issues such as PMS, weight gain, and stress-related symptoms. I will also offer practical insights on how to tailor exercise routines to support hormonal health and emphasize the importance of relaxation practices, especially during stressful periods. In Today's Episode We Discuss · Understanding Hormones and Their Functions· The Female Hormone Cycle Explained· Thyroid and Adrenal Hormones· Impact of Exercise on Hormones· Exercise and Adrenal Fatigue· Balancing Exercise with Hormonal Health· Managing Stress and Exercise· Tips for a Healthy Exercise RoutineIf you're feeling out of sync, pay attention to what your body is telling you. Rest and relaxation are just as important as movement, and sometimes, less is more when it comes to exercise, especially if you're dealing with hormonal imbalances like PMS, weight gain, or stress.

You're eating the "right" foods. You're trying to take care of yourself. But you're busy AF, still exhausted, your Googling if your hormones might be all over the place, and your kids are having meltdowns over everything...on top of stress at work.Here's the thing: It's not about eating more protein or cutting carbs. It's about blood sugar — and how the way you start your day is setting you (and your kids) up for chaos. That coffee before breakfast? The banana as a snack? They're quietly sabotaging your hormones, your energy, and even your kids' ability to regulate their emotions. (Believe me, I felt attacked yet so understood since I always start my day with caffeine & no food for 1-2 hours lol.)But we go way beyond nutrition advice. In today's episode, holistic nutrition expert Stefanie Adler breaks down exactly how blood sugar affects your hormones, why you're so depleted after having kids, and what minerals have to do with all of it. We go DEEP, and she provides her solution for how to slow down & how how to stress less!You'll understand:Why coffee before breakfast is tanking your blood sugar for the entire day (and what to do instead)The "naked carbs" rule that will change how you snack — for you and your kidsHow mineral depletion after pregnancy is the real reason you're still tired years laterWhat a hair mineral analysis can reveal about your stress, hormones, and inflammationThis isn't another list of things you're doing wrong — it's the missing piece that finally makes everything click.Resources Mentioned:Click for Stefanie's websiteFollow Stefanie on IG: @stefanieadlerwellnessGet 15% off your Hair Mineral Analysis Test w/ code JOURNALENTRIES.

Send us a textEver feel wired and tired at the same time? We dig into the surprising connection between the root chakra—your energetic anchor for safety and stability—and the adrenal glands, the tiny powerhouses that orchestrate adrenaline, cortisol, aldosterone, and DHEA. By pairing ancient Ayurvedic insights with clear, compassionate physiology, we show how the body's stress chemistry can either protect you or drain you, and what to do when it slides out of balance.We break down what most “hormone checks” actually miss and explain why adrenal health shapes everything from mood and sleep to blood pressure, blood sugar, and midlife transitions. You'll learn how adrenaline fuels instant action, how cortisol manages long‑term pressure, why aldosterone quietly drives electrolytes and hypertension risk, and how DHEA sets the stage for estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Then we map these signals to the root chakra's themes of grounding, safety, and belonging, highlighting the feedback loop between perceived threat and biochemical stress.No airy theory—just practical tools you can use today. We share simple grounding practices, such as barefoot time, mountain pose, and breathwork, along with earthy essential oils and small daily habits that stabilize energy without forcing change. If you've struggled with burnout, brain fog, hot flashes, restless sleep, or persistent high blood pressure, this conversation offers a path to resilience that balances both data and intuition.

Elizabeth is joined by holistic hormone expert Kate Gregory for a real conversation about what's really happening with women's health in their 30s and 40s.

Motherhood can leave your hormones in chaos, leading to mood swings, fatigue, and that sense of “running on empty” are often signs your body's internal rhythms need care, not control. The empowering truth? You can restore balance naturally by tuning into your body's signals, nourishing yourself deeply, and managing stress with intention.Key Takeaways:Feed Your Hormones, Don't Fight Them:Prioritise real, nutrient-rich foods, especially protein, healthy fats, and cruciferous veggies, to support natural hormone production and balance.Stress Recovery Is the Secret Weapon:It's not about eliminating stress, but teaching your body to recover. Gentle movement, deep breathing, and brief rest periods help keep cortisol (the stress hormone) in check.Sync With Your Body's Rhythms:Your menstrual cycle offers a natural map for energy, focus, and rest.

Discover the powerful role that omega-3 fatty acids play in hormone health, inflammation, and PCOS symptom management. While supplements and superfoods are often overhyped, omega-3s stand out as a simple yet impactful nutrient you can easily include in your daily routine—either through diet or supplementation. You'll learn how omega-3s reduce inflammation, improve insulin sensitivity, support hormone production, and even promote better mood, brain function, and emotional stability.How Omega-3s Support Hormone and Insulin HealthOmega-3s help calm the chronic low-grade inflammation common in PCOS and act as building blocks for healthy hormone production. This episode explains how getting enough omega-3s helps your body better regulate insulin and blood sugar, which in turn helps to lower testosterone and support ovulation. You'll also learn about the importance of healthy fats after decades of low-fat diet messaging and how these essential fats can help correct imbalances like low progesterone or estrogen dominance.Getting Omega-3s Through Food and SupplementsWe'll explore both dietary and supplemental sources of omega-3s. You'll learn practical tips for using foods appropriately to preserve their benefits and not destroy their omega-3 content. If you're considering supplements, you'll hear my recommendations and brand preferences, along with tips for choosing high-quality, third-party-tested products that avoid contamination from heavy metals. You can also download the free PCOS Supplement Guide for more detailed recommendations for PCOS supplements.What to Expect When You Add Omega-3sThis episode breaks down the real-world benefits women with PCOS may experience after consistently using omega-3s, ranging from clearer skin and reduced bloating to improved ovulation, mood, and blood sugar stability. You'll also learn how omega-3s can support hair health, especially for those experiencing thinning or limp hair due to hormonal imbalances. How to Start Incorporating Omega-3sTo help you take action, this episode provides easy ways to add omega-3s into your daily routine. Whether through diet or supplementation this episode outlines dosage suggestions and how to safely combine omega-3s with other key supplements like magnesium and vitamin D to enhance your PCOS healing journey.Supplements like omega-3s help create an environment where your body can thrive, but they're not a quick fix.

Here's the truth most people don't want to hear: the secret to balanced hormones isn't in a miracle pill or trendy hack. It's in the boring basics. As a women's health and hormone expert, I want to make sure you're doing these three simple things consistently. Prioritize Protein & Real Food If you're skipping meals, cutting carbs, or living off coffee and snacks, your hormones are running on empty. Your body needs steady fuel to support hormonal and metabolic functions. Aim for protein with every meal Avoid processed and sugary foods Eat consistently throughout the day I don't overthink it—sometimes I prep meals myself, and sometimes I grab healthy options from a local meal service. And I always have a backup in the fridge or freezer, because life happens. My kids have definitely eaten the lunch I was planning to save more times than I can count. Get Serious About Sleep Sleep is a hormonal reset button. If you are up late scrolling or surrounded by bright lights, your body struggles to regulate essential hormones like cortisol and melatonin. Wind down with dim lighting Read a real book (not a screen) Only use sleep support after you've established a good routine Move (But Keep It Gentle) Forget “go hard or go home.” Your nervous system doesn't always want a 90-minute bootcamp. When I'm feeling fatigued or overwhelmed, I focus on: A 10–15 minute walk Stretching or restorative yoga Listening to my body and resting when I need it Movement isn't punishment—it's a privilege. The final layer to these basics: Seed Cycling A natural way to align with your cycle using food. → Download My Free Seed Cycling Guide Targeted Tinctures Like Estro Balance, Progesterone Balance, Adrenal Balance, and Sleep Support.

#162 - 3 Year ANNIVERSARY EPISODE! Stop Blaming Your Age: Fix Your Hormones By Fixing Your Gut OR Can't Balance Your Hormones? Your Gut Might Be the Culprit (Here's How to Heal It) Having trouble balancing your hormones? You've probably heard that hormones run the show—but what if your gut is the one actually calling the shots? In this special Pretty Well anniversary episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how gut health holds the keys to hormonal balance, energy, metabolism, and all of your anti-aging efforts. We'll dive into the estrobolome (your gut's hidden estrogen manager), the gut-thyroid connection, and how leaky gut quietly sabotages your hormones and leaves you wondering why "doing everything right" still isn't working. You'll learn how chronic inflammation, microbiome diversity, stress, and gut permeability directly impact everything from perimenopause symptoms to thyroid function. And no—you don't need a cabinet full of supplements or to live on a diet of chia seeds (unless you're into that). If you're ready for real strategies to heal your gut, balance your hormones, and actually feel human again, this episode is your roadmap. Because it's not just your hormones that need fixing—it's the whole communication network. Let's fix the signal, shall we?

Apply To Work With Me: bit.ly/fixmyhormonesnow Does it ever feel like you're the only one still struggling to figure out your hormones? Trust me—you're not alone. Up to 85% of women over 40 experience hormone-related symptoms like chronic fatigue, weight gain, mood swings, and brain fog. And yet, we still feel like we're on our own when it comes to finding a solution that actually works. I talk to women every day who feel like “it's all their fault.” Maybe they didn't stick with a program long enough or they didn't follow it perfectly. So they try another diet, another supplement, another program… only to end up right back at square one. Truth? No amount of effort can make the WRONG approach work. YOU haven't failed. Because, more often than not, it was the program, the protocol, or the so-called magical fix that actually failed YOU! In today's episode, I'm spilling 6 surprising reasons why hormone-balancing solutions fail—and what to do instead. Join me as I unpack: ✔ The "hidden" issue with most "natural hormone balance" programs--plus, how to spot the red flags before wasting time & money ✔ The science behind what makes hormonal weight loss harder in midlife—even when you're "doing everything right" ✔ How chronic stress and lifestyle habits secretly mess with your hormones, metabolism, and energy ✔ The sneaky ways our body changes after 40—and why your old diet-and-exercise tricks don't work anymore ✔ And, how popular hormone-balancing quick fixes may actually be working against your body instead of with it If you've been following all the “rules," but still feel exhausted, unmotivated, and snapping at your houseplants, then this episode is for you!
Todays episode is an honest conversation about balancing your hormones—even when navigating a tough season. Whether it's grief, stress, or just pure exhaustion—this episode is going to give you the fire you need to keep moving forward in a way that actually works for YOU. I'm sharing the story of one of my incredible clients, who, despite being in the middle of an extremely challenging time, is STILL seeing major improvements in her cycle and hormone health. You don't need to be perfect to have balanced hormones & this episode proves just that!

Do You Have A Hormonal Imbalance? Take My FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment and Find Out!: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz Balance Your Hormones Naturally In Less Than 90 Days. Apply To Work With Me: bit.ly/fixmyhormonesnowbit.ly/fixmyhormonesnow Hey friend, Are you waking up exhausted, no matter how much sleep you get? Are you drooling on your keyboard by 3 PM, wondering if napping under your desk is less fireable than falling asleep during a Zoom? Or maybe you want to change your habits, but every attempt feels like a nonstarter. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. Studies show that 85% of women in midlife experience chronic fatigue, brain fog, and lack of motivation—leaving many of us to wonder: Is it just “aging”, or is something actually wrong? The problem isn't your willpower, your workouts, or even what time you go to bed—it's your hormones. That's because in midlife, hormone shifts can send our brain into energy-conservation mode, draining motivation and making even simple lifestyle changes feel impossible. But here's the good news: Once you understand what's happening biologically, you can stop blaming yourself and start working withyour body to reclaim your energy. In this episode, you will learn: ✔ Why your lack of energy isn't just a phase—and how midlife hormones actually work together to hijack your brain ✔ The impact of adrenal fatigue, insulin resistance, and thyroid function on our energy, mood, and mental drive ✔ Why willpower alone isn't enough—and what your brain actually needs to get you moving ✔ How perimenopause and menopause trick your body into slowing down (and how to override the shutdown) If you find yourself asking: ❓ Why am I so exhausted even after a full night of sleep? ❓ Why do I feel completely unmotivated, even though I want to change? ❓ Is this just part of getting older, or is something actually wrong? Then this episode is for you!
