Why Your Workouts and Diet Aren't Working: Unlocking the Hidden Hormonal Blocks Are you doing “everything right” for weight loss—eating clean, exercising daily, cutting carbs—and still not seeing results? If you're stuck in weight loss resistance, battling fatigue, bloating, brain fog, and hormonal shifts, this episode is for you. I sat down with hormone fitness and nutrition expert Jenny Swisher to unpack why women in perimenopause and beyond often hit a wall with their metabolism, energy, and gut health despite their best efforts. We explore how chronic stress, adrenal fatigue, and outdated fitness advice can actually sabotage your hormones—and what it really takes to break free from the cycle. Here's what you'll discover in this episode: The hidden connection between overexercising, cortisol, and stubborn belly fat—and why doing more cardio might be working against you. A subtle hormone shift that could explain your energy crashes and weight gain in perimenopause (and what to focus on instead). The #1 nutrition mistake most women make that leads to cravings, low energy, and blood sugar rollercoasters. This episode is packed with practical insights for reclaiming your metabolism, balancing your hormones, and finally getting the results your hard work deserves. If you've ever wondered why your body isn't responding the way it used to—or you feel like you're stuck in survival mode—this conversation will shift the way you think about your health. Listen now to get the clarity (and strategy) you've been missing. How to reach Jenny: https://jennyswisher.com/ Connect with Dr. Meg: Stop wasting time (and money) on products that don't work.

You're in for a very special conversation today. I've got my man Brett Klika back in the IMPACT house. You may remember him from Episode 327 where he shared his raw, heart-wrenching story of love, loss, and life after the sudden passing of his wife, Lisa. That was nearly three years ago. And today, Brett's back—and this time, he's bringing some incredible news, wisdom, and HOPE.  Brett has just released his brand-new book Energy 100, and let me tell you—it is powerful. It's already a bestseller and it's changing lives left and right. This isn't just a book; it's Brett's journey of going from absolute exhaustion and grief to becoming energized, purposeful, and intentional again. And now, he's helping thousands of people do the same. In today's episode, we dive deep into: How Brett went from survival mode (just trying to make it to lunch each day) to thriving with a renewed vision for his future. The 3 Pillars of Energy—Biological Energy, Awareness, and Intention—and how they can radically shift your life. Why chasing “busy” and someone else's version of success is draining your soul (and how to flip the script). What it means to live with purpose when everything you thought was permanent gets ripped away. Practical exercises from Energy 100 that will help you move from burned out to fired up. And yes—we even talk about crazy travel stories, being intentional as a parent, and the powerful lessons Brett has learned from raising his amazing daughter, Maddie. This episode is raw, real, and ridiculously inspiring. If you've ever felt exhausted, lost, or like you've hit zero momentum—this is for YOU. Friends, if today's conversation brought you value, here's what I encourage you to do: Grab Brett's book Energy 100 (and the companion journal) on Amazon today.

You know when you feel like you're constantly going through the motions between work, family, and endless responsibilities—but inside, everything feels flat? That's the reality of high-functioning depression.  In this episode, I'm joined by the talented psychiatrist, author, and nationally recognized expert in women's mental health, Dr. Judith Joseph, to unpack what high-functioning depression really is.  We dive into the secret signs of high-functioning depression, especially in midlife, and why it often goes unnoticed in women who seem to have it all together.  Dr. Joseph shares powerful strategies and practical tools to help you move from surviving to truly thriving.  We also discuss how to recognize when a loved one might be struggling behind the mask of success—and how to offer meaningful support.  If you feel emotionally drained despite keeping it all together on the outside, this episode will give you the clarity you need for more happiness in your life. Dr. Judith Joseph, MD MBA Dr. Judith Joseph is a psychiatrist, researcher, award-winning content creator, and author of the National Bestselling book “High Functioning, Overcome Your Hidden Depression and Reclaim Your Joy”. Dr. Judith was named as a 2024 Black Health Hero by PopSugar Inc. She was also named a 2024 VeryWell Mind Top 25 Mental Health Thought Leader and a 2024 NAACP Top 6 Mental Health Champion. IN THIS EPISODE Warning signs for high-functioning depression in midlife  Understanding the science of happiness  Most common symptoms of high-functioning depression  Why many high-functioning people have trouble slowing down  The difference between happiness and joy  Strategies for navigating high-functioning depression  How to support a loved one with high-functioning depression  QUOTES “People who go through perimenopause and menopause often mask how they feel just to show up for the job and for others. So they often have this underlying high-functioning depression that is made worse [from] hormonal fluctuations.” “Gratitude practices are really helpful in staving off high-functioning depression or sustaining your joy. It's hard to be grateful when you don't know what brings you joy.” “Don't give up. You may feel hopeless, but know that there's always something you have not tried. There's always hope. That's why I like the idea of support groups, because many times you not only help others with your story, but you also learn from other people.” RESOURCES MENTIONED

This episode of "The Deep Dive" explores the hidden dangers of using standard synthetic ropes in high-voltage environments and the shift towards true dielectric ropes. We discuss how traditional ropes can become conductive when exposed to moisture and contaminants, turning them into a serious safety hazard. We also cover the importance of rigorous testing, proper maintenance, and the barriers to adopting this life-saving technology. Read the article: https://incident-prevention.com/blog/from-risk-to-reliability-improving-rope-safety-in-energized-environments/ Written by Patrick Barry on June 10, 2025. Posted in Worksite Safety. Key Takeaways Traditional Ropes are a Hidden Danger: Standard synthetic ropes, often assumed to be non-conductive, can absorb moisture and contaminants, making them conductive and posing a significant risk in energized environments. True Dielectric Ropes are a System: A true dielectric rope is more than just a product; it's a system that includes a specific design for electrical insulation, rigorous testing against global standards, and a commitment to proper maintenance throughout its lifecycle. Barriers to Adoption: The adoption of dielectric ropes has been slow due to factors like resistance to change, the misconception that they are only necessary for live-line work, and financial hurdles. Best Practices are Crucial: To ensure the safety and reliability of dielectric ropes, it's essential to verify compliance with standards, store and maintain them properly, inspect them before each use, and provide thorough training for all workers. Q&A 1. What is the main problem with using traditional synthetic ropes in high-voltage environments? The main problem is that while the base material of these ropes (like polyester or polypropylene) is an insulator, the rope as a whole can absorb moisture, dirt, and oil. This contamination can make the rope conductive, turning it from a safe tool into a hidden hazard. 2. What makes a "true" dielectric rope different from a standard synthetic rope? A true dielectric rope is designed specifically for electrical insulation from the start and is rigorously tested against global standards like IEC 62192 and ASTM F1701. These ropes are also meant to be maintained like any other critical insulating tool, with a focus on their entire lifecycle. 3. What are some of the barriers preventing the widespread adoption of dielectric ropes? Some of the main barriers include a general resistance to change within the industry, with some believing the old ropes are "good enough". Other barriers are the dangerous assumption that work is always de-energized, dismissing the importance of wet testing, and the financial hurdles associated with the higher upfront cost of these ropes.   #RopeSafety #ElectricalSafety #WorkplaceSafety #IncidentPrevention #LinemanSafety #DielectricRope   ________________________________ This podcast is sponsored by T&D Powerskills.

What if you've been misdiagnosed or mismedicated for your symptoms, and it took until reaching midlife to figure it out? That's exactly what happened with today's podcast guest, ADHD expert Shanna Pearson, so she's here to shed light on the real reasons so many women are misdiagnosed for so much of their lives.   We dive into how ADHD symptoms can mimic other mental health conditions like anxiety and depression, making it even harder for women to get the right diagnosis and support.  Together, we explore why we as women don't always “fit the mold” of ADHD and how cultural expectations have kept our symptoms invisible for too long. Plus, you'll get top tips for managing symptoms of overwhelm and hyperactivity at any stage of life.  Tune in to make the most of your midlife, and to ensure you're getting the care and support you need to thrive!

Her new book, Invisible ADHD, offers over 100 proven tools uniquely tailored for the ADHD brain that have transformed thousands of lives over 20+ years.  IN THIS EPISODE Helping women prioritize taking care of their mental health  Addressing the lack of research on women with ADHD  Gaining agency over your symptoms and tips on advocating to your doctor to get what you deserve Telltale signs you may have ADHD and have been misdiagnosed  Setting boundaries and staying in alignment with your values  Why so many women realize they have ADHD in midlife  Recommendations for navigating a new ADHD diagnosis  Top tools that help make your life easier when dealing with overwhelm, hyperactivity, or other common symptoms of ADHD  QUOTES “A lot of women with ADHD and other challenges, even if it's just major hormonal shifts, are being diagnosed or misdiagnosed with depression and anxiety, and then they're being mismedicated.” “They're doing different things for women–a lot of that is internal. So they could be sitting there staring right at you and thinking about something completely different than what you're talking about. It's more about an internal hyperactivity versus an external hyperactivity.” “Now we're going through a phase of our life where there's even less dopamine in an already dopamine-deficient brain. So whatever you've been able to manage is now basically feeling like it's falling apart. And it happens quickly.” RESOURCES MENTIONED PRE-ORDER Invisible ADHD HERE TO ACCESS EXCLUSIVE BONUSES & Enter to win FREE COACHING!

This episode breaks down simple, science-backed habits to help you fall asleep faster, improve sleep quality, and wake up with real energy—so you can train harder, think clearer, and feel better throughout the day. Key Takeaways: Most adults thrive on ~7.5–9 hours; your “right amount” is the one that gives steady energy without constant caffeine. Sleep debt hurts recovery, focus, mood, and appetite—usually from habits, not mystery issues. Fix the big rocks first: light, temperature, timing, stimulants. If basics fail after 2–3 weeks, screen for sleep apnea and related issues. Common Sleep Killers → Quick Fixes Bright light at night → Dim lights 90 minutes before bed; warm bulbs + night mode. Late caffeine → Last dose 8–10 hours before bed. Irregular schedule → Anchor a consistent wake time (even weekends). Hot room → Keep the bedroom cool (60–67°F); take a warm shower 60–90 minutes before bed. Heavy late meals/alcohol → Finish big meals 3–4 hours before bed; keep alcohol earlier and lighter. Racing mind → 5–10 min brain dump/to-do list, then 2–5 min slow breathing or a brief body scan. Tonight's Action Plan Set a caffeine curfew (8–10 hrs before bed). Dim lights & wind down 90 minutes before bedtime. Warm shower → cool, dark room. Fix your wake time and keep it for 14 days. Write tomorrow's top 3 tasks to clear your head. If restless, get up briefly, read in dim red light, return when drowsy. For Lifters & Busy Humans: Prioritize sleep around heavy training and big work days. Naps: 10–20 minutes, early afternoon only. When to Get Checked: If you've run the basics for 2–3 weeks and still wake unrefreshed, talk to a professional about sleep apnea, iron/thyroid, medications, or restless legs.

Prayer isn't just a routine—it's the power source of the Christian life. Yet many believers struggle to pray with consistency and confidence. In this final message from Ephesians, Bucky unpacks how prayer energizes us for daily spiritual battles. Discover what it means to pray in the Spirit, how to intercede effectively for others, and why we sometimes hesitate to ask for prayer ourselves. True victory doesn't come from trying harder, but from trusting Christ and drawing strength through Him in prayer.

Do you ever feel like you're running on empty, no matter how much you rest? We've been there. In this episode, we open up about our own struggles with fatigue — from Crysanne navigating big life challenges, to Coryn facing postpartum exhaustion while trying to keep up with the demands of new motherhood. We share the moments we realized food was a big part of the problem — whether it was skipping meals altogether (Crysanne) or eating “everything in sight” to keep up with milk supply (Coryn). Then we talk about the small, simple nutrition tweaks that completely changed our energy — like adding more protein, staying hydrated, and ditching the sugar-and-caffeine roller coaster. We'll also be real about the overwhelm we felt with all the conflicting nutrition advice out there, the setbacks we hit along the way, and how focusing on just a few doable changes helped us finally feel like ourselves again. By the end of this episode, you'll have practical steps you can start today — from the first thing you drink in the morning to easy meal tweaks that keep your energy steady all day long. If you're tired of being tired, this is your gentle nudge that you can feel vibrant again — and it doesn't have to mean overhauling your whole life.

​​If your energy is constantly drained, the scale won't budge no matter what you try, or your gut feels like it's staging a daily rebellion—your hormones could be the hidden culprit. In this episode, I sit down with functional medicine expert Dr. Betty Murray to unpack how perimenopause, hormone metabolism, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) play a much bigger role in our health than most of us are told. We get into the real reasons behind chronic fatigue, weight loss resistance, bloating, brain fog, and IBS—and why typical lab tests are missing the mark. This conversation is your backstage pass into what's really going on with your metabolism, your mood, and your midsection—and what to do when “normal” labs still leave you feeling off. What You'll Hear in This Episode: • Why perimenopause symptoms can start up to a decade before menopause—and the subtle hormone shift that might explain your energy crashes • The shocking truth about estrogen and breast cancer risk (spoiler: the data may surprise you) • The real reason your hormones might not be working—even if you're on HRT • How hormone metabolism and detoxification are key to healing gut health and resolving symptoms like bloating and IBS Here's Why You'll Want to Hit Play: Most women are only testing their estradiol levels—and missing the bigger picture. In this conversation, Dr. Murray shares why hormone replacement isn't just about putting hormones in… it's about how your body clears them. She also reveals how factors like gut health, inflammation, and adrenal fatigue influence your entire hormone pathway. We talk about the HPATG axis, how cortisol and stress impact your cycle, and why symptoms like constipation, leaky gut, and low progesterone are often overlooked. Plus, we break down the Dutch test, estrogen dominance, and how the right hormone therapy could transform your energy, cognitive health, and even protect your bones. If you're dealing with: Daily fatigue that coffee can't fix Unexplained weight gain and belly fat Bloating, gas, or IBS symptoms that won't go away Brain fog and memory issues that scare you Mood swings, sleep struggles, or crashing energy... ...this episode will give you the “why” behind it all—so you can finally take the right next step.

  Today, we're going to talk about something that doesn't always show up in the brochures, the spreadsheets, or the checklists. But in my opinion — and in the opinion of a lot of folks who live here inside Hot Springs Village — it's absolutely essential to getting retirement right. Today's topic? How a place makes you feel. When most people think about retirement, the questions start off pretty predictably: “What's the cost of living?” “Is there good healthcare nearby?” “Are there enough activities to keep me busy?” “What's the climate like?” Those are important. We talk about those things a lot on this show — and we'll keep doing it. But there's another question — a deeper question — that gets skipped far too often: “How does this place make me feel?” It might sound a little soft or sentimental — until you realize that this is the question that often determines whether you feel at home…or like you're just visiting. Here's the picture I'm able to paint about the Village. It's my experience and you'll find many others who express the same things. You drive through the gates of Hot Springs Village. The trees tower above. It's quiet — really quiet — but not lonely. There's a breeze coming off one of the lakes, and the sun's beginning to dip behind the Ouachita Mountains. You roll the windows down a bit. You don't realize it at first, but your breathing slows. Your shoulders drop. Something inside says, “This… this feels good.” And every time we enter the gates I turn to Rhonda and say, "I still love it here." That's the feeling I'm talking about. It's peace. It's safety. It's possibility. It's maybe even the first time in a long time that you've felt like yourself again. It's science and common sense. Environmental psychologists have studied how physical spaces affect our well-being. Their findings? Things like: - Access to nature reduces stress and improves mood. - Safe, walkable neighborhoods increase happiness. - Sunlight and clean air lead to better sleep and more energy. - Being part of a close-knit, connected community increases life expectancy. These are the things you hear citizens of Hot Springs Village say consistently. “I feel better here.” “I sleep better.” “I feel like I belong.” And it's not just emotion — it's real, physiological change. You feel better because your environment is better. I've talked to a lot of folks who've moved here, and you know what they say? They don't talk about tax savings or property values first — though those things are great. They talk about how they felt the first time they drove through the gates. One woman told me, “I didn't even get out of the car. I just knew. It felt like home.” Another couple said, “We weren't even planning to move yet. We were just looking around. But this place spoke to us. We couldn't stop thinking about it.” Those are emotional responses. And they matter. Because when you're choosing where to spend your next chapter — maybe the best chapter — of your life, don't you want to feel inspired? Calm? Energized? Connected? Feelings matter. In our working years, we often tolerate stress. Some of us thrived on it. We get used to being overbooked, under-rested, and surrounded by noise — literally and figuratively. But retirement? That's our chance to reset. It's not just about what you're retiring from. It's about what you're retiring to. You're choosing the backdrop for your best years. And you deserve a place that not only fits your budget — but fits your spirit. And for many people, Hot Springs Village is precisely that. Now what? So here's my challenge and encouragement to you, if you're considering retirement: Yes — do the research. Crunch the numbers. Check out healthcare options, internet speeds, grocery store distances, all of that. Whatever really matters to you. But come visit. Walk a trail. Stand by a lake. At dusk, walk the cart path of a golf course. Talk to the people. Breathe the air.

Today, I'm sharing the little secret that keeps me motivated through the chaos of the year and maintains my sanity as a mom.

If you've ever found yourself saying, “I just need a day to myself,” this episode is your permission slip—and your plan.  

If you've been struggling with brain fog, anxiety, irritability, or just not feeling like yourself in midlife, this episode is here for you to connect the dots.  I'm shining a light on a hidden transition that impacts so many midlife women—but almost no one mentions it: the neurological shift of perimenopause.  I share my own experience of feeling completely destabilized by brain-related symptoms I never expected—and how I finally discovered they were actually part of a profound brain-hormone transition happening under the surface.  Then we cover the real science behind what's happening in your head, and why your symptoms are valid AND can be managed with the right tools in place.  Tune in to this episode to get my top non-negotiables for a healthier brain, and tackle midlife sharper, stronger, and more fully YOU than ever!  IN THIS EPISODE Why are brain-related symptoms so common during menopause? The impact that hormonal changes have on all body systems  Two incredible perimenopause and menopause resources for you What goes on at a cellular level in the brain during menopause Top science-backed strategies for improving brain function  How to join my FREE perimenopause and menopause summit! QUOTES“When I recently surveyed several thousand women in perimenopause about their most disruptive symptoms, something fascinating emerged. Yes, weight gain was on that list– it always is. But what stood out the most was the brain-related symptoms, the mood issues, the low or zero stress tolerance, and that terrifying feeling that your mental energy just vanished.” “If you want to get back to feeling stronger, more confident, more like yourself, again, it really begins with understanding what is happening with your body and embracing it.”  “For decades, perimenopause holds the highest risk for psychological disorders in women compared to pre- and post-menopausal women. In fact, one study found that 70% of women said irritability is [their] most common symptom.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Preorder my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution HERE Join my FREE Thriving in Perimenopause and Menopause Summit HERE (Plus get my Hormone Loving Recipe Guide FREE!)

The very drive that pushes you to succeed might be steering you directly toward burnout, hormonal chaos, and chronic stress.My guest today, Dr. Mariza Snyder, knows this cycle intimately. She spent years running from childhood trauma, channeling that energy into becoming a hyper-efficient, top-achieving machine. This state of constant alert dysregulated her entire system, leading to the same symptoms of fatigue, anxiety, and weight gain she saw in her perimenopausal patients. Except she was only 30.In today's episode, we explore how childhood experiences can wire our brains for a lifetime of hustle, why this leads to addiction to stress hormones like cortisol, and the deep mindset work required to finally get off the hamster wheel. You'll learn how to spot the signs of a dysregulated system and reclaim your calm with some powerful, in-the-moment tools."When you activate that stress response system many times a day to become more efficient in life, it's going to wear and tear on you."  ~ Dr. Mariza SnyderAbout Dr. Mariza Snyder:Dr. Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, perimenopause and menopause expert, and the voice behind the top-rated Energized podcast with over 12 million downloads.

The Dark Side of Blue Light: How to Sleep Better and Feel Energized with Daniel Ebbett | Podcast #458

Ever feel wired… yet exhausted? Or anxious… yet depleted? In this episode, I'm sitting down with Dr. Scott Sherr, a visionary physician and expert in cutting-edge mitochondrial and nervous system healing, and he unpacks why so many women in midlife feel overstimulated and underpowered at the same time.  We dive into the role of GABA, the calming neurotransmitter your body craves, and why it's often depleted during midlife, contributing to the anxiety, insomnia, and mood dips that leave you feeling unlike yourself.  Dr. Sherr also explains how mitochondrial dysfunction silently sabotages your energy, sleep, and even your joy—and what you can do to restore it naturally and effectively.  This conversation is packed with practical, science-backed strategies to help you step out of the cycle of stress and burnout and into a state of calm, clear, vibrant energy.  Ready to reclaim your vitality at every age?
