Podcasts about Energized

Wanna know the ONE thing that's made a profound and positive shift in my mental energy?  In this episode, I'll be sharing my top longevity hack that's EASY for any woman in midlife to implement.  I know there's no one busier than a midlife woman. From careers to caregiving, household responsibilities, and MORE… all while we deal with the emotional and physical whirlwind of menopausal hormonal changes.  And along with navigating the chaos of our day-to-day, these declining hormones lead to us losing bone mass, metabolic resilience, and mitochondrial function.  But the beautiful thing about combating these changes in midlife?  You don't have to rearrange your schedule! Seriously, this simple exercise hack is a complete game changer for me and my health, and I can't wait to share it with you here!  IN THIS EPISODE Navigating midlife hormonal changes and a busy schedule  My top tip for easily boosting your energy WITHOUT burnout  The benefits of quick exercise on your overall health  Prioritizing consistency over intensity  The research and science behind short bursts of exercise  My favorite kinds of “exercise snacks” and how you can easily incorporate them into your routine!   QUOTES “Midlife is the most critical time to move our bodies. This is when our metabolism starts to slow, and our insulin sensitivity declines. We begin to lose precious muscle mass at a relatively steady rate.” “The ultimate longevity hack is moving our body as much as possible throughout the day, not just the one big workout.”  “Honestly, nowhere is off limits for intentionally building my life around movement.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Connect with me on Instagram!  DrMariza.com Check out my other podcasts  Skin longevity made simple: Head to oneskin.co/ENERGIZED and use code ENERGIZED.

Feeling stuck in a cycle of fatigue, brain fog, and hormone chaos? Wondering why no matter how “healthy” you eat, your energy stays low or your weight won't budge? You're not alone—and it may not be your fault. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Aly Cohen, a board-certified rheumatologist and environmental health expert, to talk about something that affects every single one of us but rarely gets discussed: the toxic chemical overload hiding in our everyday lives. We unpack how environmental chemicals are silently disrupting your hormone balance, gut health, and immune system—especially during perimenopause and menopause, when your body is already more sensitive to stress, inflammation, and hormonal shifts. You'll hear how toxins are linked to weight loss resistance, IBS, exhaustion, thyroid dysfunction, and even autoimmune flares. Dr. Cohen shares her signature “4 A's” method to detox your life—without obsessing or aiming for perfection. From common kitchen swaps to what's lurking in your self-care routine (yep, even your garbage bags), we get into the everyday habits that silently sabotage your metabolism and energy—and how to reclaim your vitality, one simple change at a time. Key Points (Listen for the 'how' in the full episode): • The everyday products disrupting your hormone balance and gut health—especially during perimenopause • How immune-disrupting chemicals could be triggering inflammation, fatigue, and autoimmune flares • A subtle hormone shift that might explain your energy crashes—and how to fix it without relying on coffee • The surprising link between toxins and brain fog, and the four simple steps Dr. Cohen recommends to detox smarter (not harder) If you're doing “all the right things” for your health but still dealing with bloating, mood swings, constipation, or low energy, it's time to look deeper. Toxins are the hidden variable no one talks about—but they're quietly impacting your metabolism, hormone balance, and gut health. This episode helps you understand the “why” behind your symptoms and gives you a practical place to start. Ready to clear the confusion and reclaim your health? Tune in and learn how to assess, avoid, and gently detox without the overwhelm. Because true hormone balance, digestion, and energy start with removing what's blocking your body from healing.  How to Connect with Dr. Meg:   Free Guide: 6 Essential Steps for an Effective Detox  MegaVitality Supplement Store: www.megavitalityshop.com.

Your body is dealing with more toxic burden right now than at ANY point in human history. Most people think “detox” is just a wellness buzzword, but let me hit you with some science: Detoxification isn't a trend it's BIOLOGY in action. It's your liver, kidneys, gut, skin, lungs, and lymphatic system working 24/7 to identify, neutralise, and eliminate harmful substances.  Ready to take back control of your cellular biology?

“Everything looks normal”… but you still feel exhausted, anxious, inflamed, and out of sync with your body. Sound familiar? The truth is, most women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s aren't getting real answers when they start experiencing the hormonal shifts of perimenopause and menopause. Instead, they're told their symptoms are “just stress” or handed a prescription that masks the issue—without addressing the root cause. In this episode of Rooted in Wellness, I'm joined by women's hormone expert Dr. Mariza Snyder for a science-backed conversation about what's really going on beneath the surface. We break down the connection between hormone decline, nervous system dysregulation, brain health, metabolic shifts, and chronic inflammation—plus why so many of the conventional protocols (like extreme fasting, overtraining, or testosterone pellets) can make things worse, not better. Dr. Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, women's hormone expert, and bestselling author of The Essential Oils Hormone Solution and The Menopause Relief Protocol. She's the host of the Energized with Dr. Mariza podcast. If you've been doing all the “right” things and still feel like your body is stuck in survival mode, this episode is for you!

93% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy.  Isn't that nuts?! If you're like me, you're hoping you're in that other 7%. So, how do we ensure we're the ones with a healthy metabolism?  Expert in metabolism Ben Azadi joins the podcast today to explain why metabolic freedom is the key to longevity and exactly how you can prioritize your metabolism for ultimate health.  We're talking lowering insulin, building lean muscle mass, prioritizing healthy fasting, boosting metabolic flexibility, and MORE.  When your metabolism isn't flexible, that's when all kinds of symptoms arise. So, the time to do something about it is RIGHT NOW.  Tune in to this episode where we debunk myths around “healthy foods” and diet, address the misinformation from big-pharma and big-food companies, and give you simple, actionable recommendations for boosting your metabolism and enhancing longevity! Ben Azadi, FDN-P Ben Azadi has over 17 years of experience in the health industry after going through a health transformation of his own. He's the founder of Keto Kamp and the author of 4 best-selling books. His newest book, Metabolic Freedom, is releasing in May 2025. Ben is the go-to source for intermittent fasting and ketogenic diet information, and he hosts a top 15 podcast, The Metabolic Freedom Podcast.  IN THIS EPISODE What does it mean to be metabolically healthy? Insulin resistance's impact on your overall health  Diet and nutrition recommendations for your metabolism  The truth about fasting for your metabolism  Navigating modern-day misinformation about “healthy” foods  The benefits of continuous glucose monitors  Tips for getting enough protein for optimal metabolism  Actionable daily movement goal recommendations  Why you need Vitamin G in your daily supplement routine  QUOTES“That swap right there– you do that little swap and you're gonna lower inflammation, balance hormones, and restore your metabolism.”  “It showed that individuals who walked at least 5,000 to 7,000 steps per day had about a 60 to 70% reduction in dying versus those who walked less than 3000 steps a day.” “If you build lean muscle mass during your perimenopause years, or even during your postmenopausal years, you could have a metabolism at age 75 working the same way as when you were 25 years old by building lean muscle mass, eating high-quality protein, and doing all the things we're talking about here.” “Vitamin G is anti-inflammatory. It's fat burning. It gets rid of brain fog. It helps with autoimmunity, it helps with PCOS, it helps with all the hot flashes and all the things you might be dealing with right now.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Get your Metabolic Freedom book HERE **With a free course and interviews given away with all orders!  Ben's Website The Metabolic Freedom Podcast High-quality olive oil: go to www.getfreshenergized.com to get your free $39 bottle for just $1 shipping.

Today's a “Best Of” episode—and you know I absolutely love these shows. Nothing makes me happier than pulling together the best bits, the moments that resonate, and the wisdom that sticks with us long after we hear it.   Now that I've done many solo shows, it felt like the perfect time to round up the greatest hits. I'm calling this one: From Stuck to Steady, From Tired to Energized, and From Blah to Bold.    Because, let's be honest, feeling good isn't just about those fleeting moments of happiness. It's about sustaining it. It's about building habits and mindsets that work—ones that keep us thriving, not just surviving.   So, today, we're diving deep. We're talking about how to build your optimism muscle so you're grounded even when life throws curveballs. We're unpacking why sleep—yes, good old-fashioned rest—is your secret superpower (and how to get more of it). And, of course, I'm sharing simple ways to create a life that feels good. We are made to thrive, not just get by.   Let's get into it!   Timestamps:  (01:25) - Build Your Optimism Muscle (06:17) - Hacks for Better Sleep (16:54) - Actionable Steps to Build a Good Life (22:47) - Quick Ideas to Get Out of a Rut WATCH ALLI  ON YOUTUBE   Links to great things we discussed:  Join the waitlist - Uplift App I hope you loved this episode!

When we hear the word “codependent,” we often picture someone clinging to toxic relationships or constantly rescuing others.  But the brilliant psychotherapist and boundary expert Terri Cole challenges this idea, revealing how capable, competent, and successful people can struggle with codependent patterns too,  just hidden under the mask of over-functioning and over-investing in people's lives.  Doing it all? That's the problem. In this episode, Terri shares how our deep desire for peace and control can drive us to do too much for others—emotionally, mentally, and physically— even at the cost of our own well-being. This conversation is a loving nudge to pause and ask:  “What am I doing for others that they could be doing for themselves?” We explore how stepping out of this “handle-it-all” mindset isn't just freeing—it's life-changing.  Tune in to this episode to learn to overcome high-functioning codependence and find ease, joy, fun, balance, and healthier relationships in your life! Terri Cole Terri Cole is a licensed psychotherapist and global relationship and empowerment expert. She's the author of the books Boundary Boss and Too Much. For over 20 years, Terri has worked with a diverse group of clients–  from stay-at-home moms to celebrities and Fortune 500 CEOs. She makes complex psychological concepts accessible and actionable so the people she works with can achieve sustainable change.  IN THIS EPISODE Understanding the term “high-functioning codependency” Physical manifestations of being a high-functioning codependent  Helpful ways to set and maintain boundaries with others  Addressing resentment in a relationship  Why burnout is common among high-functioning codependents  Letting go of intervening to “help” others & focusing on yourself QUOTES “You see it as well, that high functioning codependence. We give too many F's for too long about all the things and all the people… and perfectionism and making sure everything gets done.” “There are ways we can help children and people we love find their own answers without therapizing them. But giving them our answers is not loving. It's treating people as projects.” “When you spend decades of your life checking boxes that someone else constructed, you end up with this existential crisis of loneliness– like, ‘wow, people do not know ME'.”  RESOURCES MENTIONED Get The HFC Toolkit:  Simplify & Do Less video lesson with integrative exercises & meditations  Terri's Website Order Terri's Book Too Much HERE  High-quality olive oil: go to www.getfreshenergized.com to get your free $39 bottle for just $1 shipping.

Ever feel crushing fatigue, stubborn belly weight, or energy crashes no matter how “clean” you eat? Let's sort out the confusion around weight-loss resistance, hormone balance, gut health, and a metabolism that suddenly won't cooperate—especially in perimenopause when brain fog, IBS-style bloating, and low energy can gang-up on you.  Today I walk you through the hidden hormone signals that turn calories into cling-on fat (yes, even if you're fasting, counting macros, or exercising harder) —so you can finally drop the frustration along with the extra pounds. ​ What we cover in this episode The cortisol trap that stores fat around your organs—and the simple nightly shift that starts reversing it. A subtle estrogen-progesterone imbalance that can tank metabolism in perimenopause and why blood tests often miss it. Why “eat less, move more” backfires when thyroid conversion stalls (hint: it's not just about calories). A protein-fiber combo that smooths blood-sugar spikes and steadies energy without crash diets. You'll walk away knowing what hormone patterns sabotage weight-loss, why stress and sleep set the stage for belly fat, and which lab clues flag hidden insulin resistance—so you can tune into the full episode for the “how” and put each fix into action. Expect to reclaim energy, clear brain fog, and see the scale move in the right direction while supporting gut and digestive health along the way.  Struggling with bloating, IBS, constipation, fatigue, brain fog, or hormone imbalance?

“So beginning with this same Scripture, Philip told him the Good News about Jesus.” (Acts 8:35 NLT) The New Testament mentions two followers of Jesus named Philip. The first was one of the twelve disciples, the men Jesus handpicked to follow Him. The second was known as Philip the Evangelist. Many Bible scholars believe that Philip the Evangelist was one of the seventy-two men Jesus sent out in Luke 10:1. According to Acts 6:5, Philip the evangelist was one of the original seven deacons in the church at Jerusalem. According to Acts 21:8–9, Paul and Luke stayed at his house for several days when they visited Jerusalem. But the story for which Philip is best known is found in Acts 8. Philip had left Jerusalem to become an evangelist in the city of Samaria, which was located about thirty miles north of Jerusalem. “Crowds listened intently to Philip because they were eager to hear his message and see the miraculous signs he did. Many evil spirits were cast out, screaming as they left their victims. And many who had been paralyzed or lame were healed. So there was great joy in that city” (verses 6–8 NLT). Energized and emboldened by Jesus’ resurrection, Philip fearlessly spread the gospel to people who were hungry for the Good News. One day he received very specific instructions from an angel of the Lord. It seems that an important government official from Ethiopia had traveled to Jerusalem to worship. The official was reading aloud from the book of Isaiah in his carriage on his journey back to Ethiopia but was having difficulty making sense of the text. The angel instructed Philip, “Go south down the desert road that runs from Jerusalem to Gaza” (verse 26 NLT)—the road the Ethiopian official was traveling. Philip didn’t question why he was being sent to the middle of nowhere. Incredible things had been happening since Jesus’ resurrection, and he probably saw the assignment as an opportunity to be part of yet another one. He was right. “Philip ran over and heard the man reading from the prophet Isaiah. Philip asked, ‘Do you understand what you are reading?’ “The man replied, ‘How can I, unless someone instructs me?’ And he urged Philip to come up into the carriage and sit with him” (verses 30–31 NLT). The passage he was reading was Isaiah’s prophecy of Jesus being led like a sheep to the slaughter. The official wanted to know who the passage was talking about. He practically invited Philip to share the Good News with him. Philip didn’t need to be told twice. The Ethiopian official was so moved by the gospel message that he asked Philip to baptize him. And then, according to church tradition, he carried the Good News of Christ back to his homeland and started a church there so that countless other lives would be transformed. The Christian faith gained an important foothold in its global spread. All because one man was bold enough to respond to God’s call. If you find yourself in the right place at the right time to share your faith or answer someone’s questions about the Bible, it’s because God put you there, just as He did with Philip. Seize the moment. Be bold. Even a single encounter can change a life—and more. Reflection question: Who might be waiting for you to help them understand the message of the Bible?

Does your energy crash by mid-afternoon, even if you started the day motivated? The problem isn’t your workload. It’s the lack of built-in renewal.

“Is Stress the Real Reason You Can't Lose Weight or Heal Your Gut?” Are you constantly battling fatigue, weight loss resistance, hormone imbalance, or relentless brain fog—and wondering why nothing is working, even though you're doing all the “right” things? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tricia Pingel to unpack one of the most overlooked but powerful drivers of chronic symptoms: cortisol. We explore how the stress response hijacks your metabolism, messes with your hormones, disrupts your digestion, and can even trigger histamine intolerance and immune system reactivity. If you're in perimenopause, struggling with IBS, feel stuck despite healthy eating and workouts, or just can't figure out why your energy has tanked, this conversation is for you. You'll walk away with fresh insight into how your body is not broken—it's protecting you. And there's a way out. Key Points:  The stress-hormone connection that's wrecking your metabolism and gut health—without you even realizing it. A subtle hormone shift that might explain your energy crashes, and how to fix it without coffee. Why your IBS, histamine issues, or food reactions aren't always about the food—and what to focus on instead. The surprising link between perimenopause and your adrenal response (plus why fasting could be backfiring). What You'll Learn Inside the Episode:  We talk about how adrenal fatigue often sneaks up on the most driven, type-A women—the ones powering through life, checking every box, and still feeling awful. Dr. Pingel explains why your body stores fat in a stressed state (especially around the midsection), how perceived stress—not just actual events—triggers hormonal chaos, and what's really happening in your immune system when you react to the same food one day but not the next. She also walks us through her four-pillar approach to adrenal healing: Functional nutrition that supports cortisol regulation Movement that calms the nervous system rather than overwhelms it Strategic supplementation, including specific vitamins and adaptogens Mind-body rewiring to shift your stress response for good We get into the mindset blocks that keep you stuck in burnout, the dangerous myth of pushing harder to get results, and how joy, boundaries, and nervous system regulation can transform your gut, hormones, and energy levels more than any diet or detox ever will. Fatigue, hormone imbalance, and gut symptoms don't always mean something's “broken”—they often mean your body's under-protected and overstimulated. You can shift your biology by shifting your stress response. This episode offers a roadmap for how to do exactly that, starting with how you think, move, eat, and prioritize yourself.   If you've tried everything and still don't feel better, this might just be the missing piece.

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5 Welcome to a brand-new Best Podcast in Baseball. St. Louis Post-Dispatch baseball writer and host Derrick Goold is joined this week by colleague, sports columnist, and instant offense Jeff Gordon. They discuss the Cardinals’ “relentless bunch” – their league-leading on-base machine lineup and their leader, hitting coach Brant Brown. There’s even a quiz on his catchphrases. The two writers look at the Cardinals shift to a six-man rotation for the coming week. And then they dive into the numbers on attendance in the early series of the season, ticket sales, and whether the dip in attendance reflects exactly the drop in payroll. Will the assertive start by the lineup and this team’s style of play be enough to bring fans to Busch Stadium, or Goold asks, is there something else afoot hear? The Cardinals have advertised a “transition” year, so is coming to the ballpark early in the season less fun because the team is more likely to change? Being there to watch a team in April that will be dismantled by August can be a hard sell. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a weekly production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.

Weight loss during menopause isn't impossible, it just requires a new approach. In this episode, I discuss the challenges of weight gain during perimenopause and menopause, explaining how hormonal shifts impact metabolism, muscle mass, and fat distribution. I highlight why traditional diets may no longer be effective and emphasize the importance of balanced nutrition, including protein, fiber, and healthy fats. I also cover the benefits of strength training, cardio, and daily movement to maintain metabolism and overall health. Additionally, I share lifestyle tips such as stress management, quality sleep, and intermittent fasting. Most importantly, I encourage patience and self-compassion, reminding listeners that adjusting to these changes is a new chapter, not the end of their health journey.

Whether or not you identify as spiritual or some kind of Christian, I'm pretty sure most of us are quite familiar with the tendency--if not the temptation--to live as if the grass is always greener on the other side of the septic tank. Armed with this mindset, many of us move on, move away, or just keep on moving rather than stay put in hopes of finding what we're looking for where we are. As you'll soon learn, Rev. Lydia Sohn was preprogrammed by her Korean American immigrant parents to be a nomad. That was her first and most basic instinct. But at some point she was made to consider the potentially greater value of staying, which has long been a spiritual practice of Benedictine monks. Energized by what a difference this made in her life and her work, Sohn eventually wrote Here: A Spirituality of Staying In a Culture of Leaving. I have no doubt that much of what she shares in our conversation and in her new book will be life-giving, if not life-saving. You can learn more about her at www.revlydia.com.    

Story at-a-glance A body without cellular energy is like a car without fuel. Providing your body with the right nutrition, exercise, sleep and sunlight exposure is essential to maintaining and replenishing these vital energy reserves Exercise, particularly interval training and resistance exercises, stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis and enhances your body's capacity to generate energy and improve metabolic health Quality sleep enables cellular repair. This allows your mitochondria to restore and regenerate through processes like mitophagy and aligns your body's circadian rhythms Sunlight exposure directly fuels mitochondria by converting red and near-infrared light into electrons. This supports ATP production and synchronizes your body's internal energy systems To safely benefit from sun exposure, eliminate vegetable oils from your diet first. They contain linoleic acid that accumulates in your skin and increases your risk of UV-induced oxidative stress and sunburn

Ladies, we are NOT here for workouts that leave us exhausted, burnt out, and questioning all our life choices. Today, we're talking about the reality check that hits after 40—when your old gym tricks stop working, and your hormones decide to throw a party you didn't want an invite to. If you've ever wondered why your two-hour gym sessions aren't giving you the results they used to—or if you're struggling to find time for fitness in the chaos of midlife—this episode is for YOU. I'm breaking down how to train smarter, not longer, and why it's time to ditch the gym bro splits in favor of workouts that keep you strong, energized, and ready to chase those grandkids (or at least keep up with your overly active Golden Retriever).

“I'm never out here trying to prove to others who I am. I'm out here proving to myself that I'm exactly who I said I am.” Natasha Cloud WNBA Champion   Pivot Family, We have had a lot of great conversations but this one is up there as one of our favorites because it's so personal, covering so many life aspects we don't talk about often and truly reveals the inner character of a remarkable woman who stands on strength and is fueled by passion and purpose. Ryan, Fred and Channing sit with former WNBA champion and Connecticut Sun point guard Natasha Cloud. Cloud, joins the guys for an emotional and powerful conversation about her journey through basketball, identity, social justice advocacy, and the fight for equality in women's sports. Through her battle scars and experiences, we get to know the real side of this strong woman who found her voice at a young age and has never hid from who she is to use it.    Growing up biracial, in a predominantly white household and community, Cloud reflects on feeling like she existed in a “gray area”…never feeling fully white, never feeling fully black and how that shaped her outlook. Shedding some tears, she shares how much her parents mean to her and how they embraced her wholeheartedly even though it wasn't always easy times. Cloud opens up about her self discovery to understanding her Blackness, the difficult conversations that came with it, and how her white parents made a constant effort to support her experience as a Black woman.   Energized and excited about the success and competition of playing in the Unrivaled league- Cloud is now gearing up for their next battle as she is at the forefront of the WNBA's fight for better pay, benefits, and respect. She speaks passionately about the upcoming Collective Bargaining Agreement, the need for pensions, and the growing investment in women's basketball. She also discusses this past WNBA season with the increased viewership and doesn't shy away from speaking on aggressive play being criticized as something other than basketball.    Candid about her personal relationship with fellow WNBA player Isabelle Harrison, Cloud takes us through the challenges of being a Black gay woman, and how she struggled to reconcile her faith with her identity while balancing societal pressures and criticism. By overcoming constant battles, Cloud finds strength in embracing who she is through thick and thin and never lets what others think be of influence.    The guys talk about Cloud skipping the 2020 WNBA season to focus on social justice, the burden of constantly speaking out on important issues, and how she's learned the importance of self-care, acknowledging that while she wants to fight for change, she also understands that she can't pour from an empty cup.   This episode is about courage, resilience, and standing firm in who you are. Natasha Cloud's story is a beautiful one of pride, courage, love, family and proof that playing basketball is bigger than sports. Finding purpose in using her platform for change, she's a proven leader, and willing to stand on the shoulders of those who came before her to leave the game and world better for future generations of young women.  Learn more about your ad choices.
