This week, I'm joined by Dr. Felice Chan, a Chinese medicine doctor who bridges Eastern and Western approaches to healing after years studying allopathic medicine including shadowing an oncology neurosurgeon and working at Boston Children's Hospital. We dive into the fascinating contrasts between healthcare in Hong Kong and the U.S., the 5,000-year misunderstanding around acupuncture, and how our gut health connects to anxiety, depression, and even our skin. Dr. Chan shares practical, science-backed tips to reduce bloating, support digestion, curb sugar cravings, and shift your mindset around food—plus her honest takes on popular health trends like intermittent fasting and cold plunging. We also get into cosmetic acupuncture, what not to do on your period, how emotions manifest physically, and how to “eat your skincare” by nourishing your blood and creating a vibrant, resilient body from the inside out.This episode is brought to you by:Get 20% off your order at Bakedbymelissa.com/BLONDE.Go to ProLonLife.com/BLONDE for 15% off plus a $40 bonus gift when you subscribe to their 5-day program.Visit Hungryroot.com/blonde and use code blonde for 40% off your first box.Go to fromourplace.com/BLONDE and use code BLONDE for 10% off sitewide.Get $10 off your first month's subscription and enjoy free shipping when you visit Nutrafol.com and use promo code BLONDE.Go to Quince.com/blonde for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order.Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

You sat in the paper gown, finally told the truth out loud—“I'm exhausted. I can't focus. I'm gaining weight. I don't feel like myself.” The screen flickered, the keys clicked, and you heard it: “Everything looks fine.”In this episode, I get honest about the moment Christian women are dismissed by “normal” labs while their bodies are screaming for help. I unpack what's actually happening under the surface—blood sugar swings, cortisol on overdrive, a congested liver, and a nervous system stuck in survival—and why traditional medicine can diagnose disease but typically misses dysfunction.SERVICES & MEMBERSHIPS:SubstackCoffee Cafe Registration$7 Mentorship: How to Fix Your Energy, Cravings, and Mood in Just One Day

Matthew 6:1-4 NIV  1 “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”Matthew 6:5-8 NIV  5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.”Matthew 6:16-18 NIV  16 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”1. Fasting brings clarity to our COMMUNICATION.Matthew 6:16-18 NASB16 “Whenever you fast, do not put on a gloomy face as the hypocrites do, for they neglect their appearance so that they will be noticed by men when they are fasting. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. 17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face 18 so that your fasting will not be noticed by men, but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.”Fasting - Going without food.BIBLICAL FASTING - refraining from food for a spiritual purpose.

Send us a textHave you ever felt like you're doing everything right — eating healthy, tracking your food, trying to stay consistent - and yet… you're still tired, moody, or craving sugar all the time?That's what I call hidden hunger and I see it all the time with my clients (and I've been there myself). In this episode, I talk about what's really going on when your body feels off even though your meals look “clean” on paper.I share stories from a few of my clients — like Samia, whose evening chocolate cravings disappeared after we added more protein in the morning, and Ingrid, who stopped her 3 p.m. energy crashes once she started eating proper lunches again.You'll also hear how under-eating, low protein, or poor sleep can mess with your hunger hormones — ghrelin and leptin — and why your body starts craving sugar even when you're eating “enough.”And most importantly, I'll walk you through what I call my Core Four Reset — the simple framework I use with my clients to bring energy and hunger back into balance:1️⃣ 25–30 g of protein before 10 a.m. 2️⃣ 25–30 g of daily fiber from fruits, veggies, oats, or lentils 3️⃣ 8,000+ steps per day and 2–3 strength workouts per week 4️⃣ 7–8 hours of quality sleepNo crazy diets, no all-or-nothing rules — just a few small habits that make everything else easier.If you've been feeling stuck lately or constantly fighting cravings, this one's for you.

You eat clean all day, then the house goes quiet…and the snacks start calling. Chips, ice cream, cereal over the sink in the dark—followed by bloating, guilt, and “I'll do better tomorrow.” In this raw, faith-forward episode, Dr. Danielle names what's really going on: blood sugar crashes, cortisol spikes, emotional exhaustion—and a trauma-bond with food that became your comforter. She shares her story, calls out gluttony as numbing, and gives a simple, functional path out: rebuild your food foundation, rewire your evening routine, and reclaim your role as a daughter of the King. No shame. No crash plans. Just stewardship, Scripture, and daily direction you can actually live.DM cafe on IG to join the free Wilderness Café (Telegram), subscribe on Substack for the deeper written teaching, or step into Wilderness of Wellness for the full Roadmap to Health + coaching.SERVICES & MEMBERSHIPS:SubstackCoffee Cafe Registration$7 Mentorship: How to Fix Your Energy, Cravings, and Mood in Just One Day

Send us a textRaj Khedun is the inventor of the 3:3 insomnia hack.  I asked what his inspiration was to follow this path.  He tells the story of when he was three years old.  It was in a library.  Two books he picked guided him more than any other books. One book was about dinosaurs.  He explains about how he was fascinated with evolving.  The other about planets.  He was fascinated by the colours, and the fact that Mars is empty, while next to it earth is full of life.School bored him, but fitness and sports kept him interested.  Raj said everything was handed to him as a young man.  He describes himself as arrogant.  Until his mother took him to India.  His arrogance took a slap.  It was when he met an avatar.  He explains it's a power incarnated into a human.  He goes on to share that this avatar said he brought him to India and knew everything about him.  His message to Raj is "you need to be humble, you need to listen to the voice within."  A smashing of his ego put him in his place and he had to face that.From 20 to 30 he went into "monk mode".  He thought about what one thing most people are missing is breath.  Breath is not air or oxygen, it is more;  light, electricity and magnetism.   Listen to find out more about how your breath can help you...You can reach Raj at https://33insomniahack.com/  BE A GUEST/FIND A GUEST Start for Free!PODMATCH is innovative, provides easy communication and dashboard scheduling!

If you've felt yourself drift—avoiding his touch, calling it “just a busy season,” or wondering what's wrong with you—this episode is for you. Dr. Danielle continues last week's raw conversation (Ep. 126) and names what's underneath the distance: dysregulated hormones and stress chemistry, quiet resentment, and numbing that looks like “I'm fine.” With Scripture (1 Corinthians 7) and straight-talk coaching, she gives you a clear way forward: say the truth out loud, address the physical root causes, and get in a Godly community that won't let you quit. This isn't a moral failure; it's a functional health issue—and stewardship is part of your marital duty.CTA: Subscribe on Substack for the deeper written teaching, DM cafe on IG to join the Wilderness Café (Telegram), or step into Adventurer inside the Wilderness of Wellness for the Roadmap to Health + coaching.SERVICES & MEMBERSHIPS:SubstackCoffee Cafe Registration$7 Mentorship: How to Fix Your Energy, Cravings, and Mood in Just One Day

This episode is brought to you by Cured Nutrition, Strong Coffee Company and Timeline Nutrition.  In this powerful and timely episode of Ever Forward Radio, Chase sits down with Louisiana State Senator Patrick McMath, Chairman of the Senate Health and Welfare Committee, to discuss a growing national movement around children's health, school nutrition, and public policy reform. Senator McMath dives deep into his groundbreaking Senate Bill 14 (Act 463)—a first-of-its-kind initiative to limit artificial dyes, additives, and sweeteners in school meals, introduce QR code ingredient transparency, and improve the overall nutritional standards in Louisiana schools. What began as a personal journey to restore his family's health evolved into a statewide wellness movement—and a national example of how policy can reshape public health from the ground up. Together, Chase and Patrick explore the intersection of wellness, politics, and personal responsibility, how chaos can lead to reform, and why the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement is transforming how we think about food and children's well-being. ----- In this episode we discuss... 02:00 – Meet Senator Patrick McMath 04:45 – From Infrastructure to Health Care Reform 08:40 – Louisiana's Health Crisis 11:15 – A Personal Wake-Up Call: His Wife's Health Journey 13:45 – The Book That Changed Everything: End of Cravings 17:20 – From Family Health to Public Policy 20:00 – Children, Schools, and the MAHA Movement 27:20 – The “Maha Moms” and Grassroots Advocacy 33:00 – What SB 14 Actually Does 37:00 – Learning from Other States & Building Momentum 41:00 – Forcing Big Food to the Table 46:00 – Transparency, QR Codes, and What's Next 50:00 – The Economics of Healthy Change 54:30 – Good Chaos: Disrupting for Progress 59:10 – Profits vs. Public Health 1:05:00 – The SNAP Program and Coca-Cola's Pushback 1:10:00 – Public Engagement & The Power of the People 1:13:00 – How Podcasts Drive Change 1:17:00 – Rapid Fire: Prevention, Education, and Chronic Disease 1:19:30 – His Decade Wish: Eradicating Cancer & Autism's Rise 1:21:00 – Politics Meets Wellness 1:24:10 – Ever Forward ----- Episode resources: 20% off Flow and Serenity gummies with at https://www.CuredNutrition.com/everforward 15% off Coffee Booster with code CHASE at https://www.StrongCoffeeCompany.com  FREE 3-day sample of MitoPure gummies with Urolithin A at https://www.Timeline.com/everforwardsample  Watch and subscribe on YouTube Learn more at PatrickMcMath.com

Ever wondered why your efforts don't bring results - even when you eat “clean” and stick to all the rules? This episode with Dr. Beth Westie digs into the relationship between hormones and cravings, energy slumps, and emotional eating. Beth breaks things down with a simplified approach to what to do instead of beating yourself up.Dr. Beth Westie is a Functional Medicine Practitioner, chiropractor, bestselling author, and host of The Female Health Solution Podcast. After facing her own hormonal challenges, she developed the Eat for Your Cycle™ Method to help women balance their hormones through nutrition. In this episode, she joins me to unpack why willpower fails when hormones are out of sync—and how cravings, energy dips, and emotional eating are often driven by deeper physiological patterns.We cover how sleep, stress, and protein work together to stabilize your system, how eating for your cycle can reduce cravings, and why long-term hormonal alignment—not quick fixes—is key to real change.Resources & Links: Dr. Beth Westie:FacebookInstagramTikTokYouTubeThe Female Health Solution PodcastMelissa's Resources:Hidden Hungers QuizFree MasterclassTooMuchonHerPlate.comFull show notes and transcript at https://toomuchonherplate.com/podcast-190-hormones-and-cravings/ Watch the free, on-demand masterclass: The 3 Keys to Ending Emotional Eating and Overeating (Without Deprivation, Vicious Cycles, or Superhuman Amounts of Willpower: https://toomuchonherplate.com/registration-page/ Find out what's triggering emotional eating.

This one goes straight to the quiet places you've avoided: the nights you flinch when your husband reaches for you—not because you don't love him, but because you can't stand your own skin.

If you've ever thought, “I hate when he touches me when I feel this gross,” you're not broken, beyond hope, or alone. You're seen—and there's a next best step.SERVICES & MEMBERSHIPS:SubstackCoffee Cafe Registration$7 Mentorship: How to Fix Your Energy, Cravings, and Mood in Just One Day

Are your food cravings stronger in perimenopause or menopause? You're not imagining it! Hormones like GLP-1 play a big role in appetite, metabolism, and even mood.

In today's episode, we're talking about bacteria and the impact artificial sweeteners can have on your gut health. Did you know that you've got more bacterial cells in your body than human cells? Bacteria are the biggest part of what makes us uniquely human. You are a walking bacterial super-organism. Artificial sweeteners—like sucralose, aspartame, and saccharin—aren't neutral because they have no caloric value as so many love to postulate. A study published in the Journal of Nature in 2014 revealed that the altered bacterial balance brought on by ingesting artificial sweeteners triggered glucose intolerance—basically, Splenda or Ace K lay the ground work for diabetes in the future. Artificial sweeteners shift the gut away from butyrate-producing species (our favorite short chain fatty acid) and toward inflammatory ones. This is essential to understand because how those bacteria are balanced decides how our mind and body manifest in life.   ➡️Download 16 Delicious Goat Whey Recipes https://drwholeness.ac-page.com/goat-whey -------- Connect with Dr. Matt online:  

Binge eating is more than just feeling out of control with food.It's constantly thinking about food 24/7 and whether you should order the pizza or the pasta for dinner. Whether you should have the cookie or be "good" and have some fruit. Whether you ate enough protein & veggies for the day.It's having a love/hate relationship with food. It's your best friend and your enemy at the same time. You love how good it makes you feel. How it gives you so much comfort, relief and pleasure while also hating how it's one of the most pleasurable aspects of your day.It's using food to cope with every emotion you feel. You're stressed, sad, happy, lonely, bored?... you eat.Inside this episode I discuss the full spectrum of what an unhealthy relationship with food looks like and how it goes way beyond just feeling out of control with food.JOIN MY ROOT & REWIRE MEMBERSHIP

Have you ever wondered why your body seems “stuck” no matter how much you exercise or how clean you eat?In this episode, I discuss the concept of your set point—the natural rhythm your body returns to when it comes to food, movement, sleep, stress, and even your beliefs about your weight. I share why weight isn't just about the number on the scale—it's also emotional, psychological, and energetic.You'll discover how high cortisol and other hormones create cravings, stubborn weight gain, and exhaustion… and most importantly, what you can do to shift out of protection mode into a state where your body feels safe enough to release weight naturally.At the end, I walk you through the six shifts that reset your hormones and change your set point for good.Listen to the full episode to discover how you can finally make peace with your body and reset your rhythm.Topics Covered:What your set point really means and why it controls your weight, cravings, and energyWhy “diet” is more than food—it's everything you consume in daily lifeHow high cortisol traps you in cravings, fatigue, and fat storageThe link between emotional stress, perfectionism, and uncontrollable eating patternsWhy your body resists change and clings to what feels “safe”The role of protection mode in cravings, emotional eating, and stubborn weightSix shifts to reset hormones: syncing circadian rhythm, healing leptin resistance, food pairing for insulin, hormone-safe movement, restoring deep sleep, and building your metabolic blueprint

Trying everything—points, macros, Whole30s, shakes—and still not seeing the scale move? In this episode, Dr. Danielle cuts through the noise and shows you why weight won't budge when your body doesn't feel safe—and how to create safety so it finally lets go. You'll learn the real root causes behind stubborn weight (insulin resistance, sluggish liver, gut dysfunction, and a dysregulated nervous system), the order of operations to heal them, and a simple, sustainable nutrition rhythm that honors how God designed the body. No gimmicks. No shame.

Repeated dieting followed by binging reshapes your gut bacteria in ways that increase cravings for junk food and make overeating harder to control The more you cycle between restriction and indulgence, the more your microbiome drives binge behavior by altering brain reward pathways People with binge-eating disorder have fewer beneficial gut microbes and higher levels of inflammation, disrupting mood, impulse control, and fullness signals Gut bacteria from yo-yo dieters triggered the same binge-eating behaviors in healthy animals, showing how powerful and transferable gut changes are Healing your gut with easy-to-digest carbs and targeted probiotics calms inflammation, restores microbiome balance, and helps break the restrict-binge cycle for good

Eating minimally processed foods helped participants lose pounds at nearly double the rate of ultraprocessed diets, even when calories, fat, sugar, and protein were carefully matched Researchers found that people on minimally processed diets improved craving control twofold overall, with a fourfold improvement in resisting savory cravings, making long-term weight management far easier Ultraprocessed foods now make up more than 70% of the U.S. food supply, flooding daily diets with additives, seed oils, and engineered products that undermine health and longevity Large reviews link ultraprocessed foods to a 50% higher risk of heart disease and 32 additional health problems, including sleep issues, anxiety, depression, and digestive disorders Food companies engineer textures, flavors, and even sounds to bypass satiety signals and hook your brain's dopamine response, making ultraprocessed foods as addictive as alcohol or cigarettes
