The Robyn Engelson Podcast Ever wish you had a life mentor with over decades of experience whispering million dollar tips in your ear? That's exactly what you will get each week when you tune into The Robyn Engelson Podcast. I'm your host, a sought after burnout recovery coach for high-achieving women and help you heal from burnout and survival mode, so you can reclaim your energy, joy, and rediscover your voice. Each week, I bring you inspiring guests, insights, and tools to empower you to be energized, compress time, and start living instead of existing.   Episode Title: How Did Book Club Member, Gina, Go From Burnout to Empowered? Host: Robyn Engelson Guest: Gina Shutan Episode Summary: In this episode, we sit down with Gina Shutan, a woman whose story is a testament to what's possible when you stop pushing through burnout and start listening to your body, your mind, and your heart. Gina was mentally, emotionally, and physically drained. Like so many of us, she thought exhaustion was something to just “get over.” But everything shifted when she picked up Robyn's book, Exhausted to Energized. Through tiny changes, like simply lacing up her gym shoes, Gina began a powerful transformation grounded in self-compassion, gratitude, and a mindset shift that helped her rewrite her life. Today, Gina isn't just more energized, she's more alive. This conversation is for anyone who's been putting themselves last, battling perfectionism, or wondering how to find their spark again.    You'll learn: Why perfectionism is often a mask for fear. How to build energy with micro-habits (even on your worst days). The role of gratitude in rewiring your mindset. How to shift from self-criticism to self-compassion. What it means to lead your life, not your exhaustion. How small actions (like mentoring or gifting a book) create ripples of empowerment.   Memorable Quotes: “Run my life, not my exhaustion.” – Gina “Food for your soul.” – Gina, on reading Exhausted to Energized “Your attitude is everything. Itt's how you enter a room and connect with the world.” – Robyn    Actionable Steps for Listeners: Commit to One Tiny Win Today Whether it's putting on your gym shoes or drinking a glass of water, start. Energy builds  from movement, not perfection. Reframe Your Inner Voice Notice when you're being hard on yourself. Pause, and ask: “Would I say this to someone I love?” Practice the 90-Day Shift Like Gina, commit to 90 days of small mindset shifts—gratitude journaling, moving your body, and celebrating micro-wins. Mentor or Support Someone Else Gina's healing deepened when she started mentoring others. You grow stronger when you help others rise. Lead with Attitude, Not Exhaustion Every room you walk into is shaped by your energy. What are you bringing with you?   Final Thought: Your exhaustion doesn't make you broken. It makes you human. And like Gina, you have the power to reclaim your energy—not by doing more, but by choosing differently. This isn't about pushing harder. It's about pausing, listening, and finally honoring the truth inside you.    What listeners have to say: “Gina's story made me cry, because it felt like mine. I finally feel like I'm not the only one who's been silently struggling.” — Lauren D., Chief Revenue Officer  “The idea of starting with lacing up your shoes? That hit me hard. I can do that. I did do that today.” — Mindy T., mother of three  “I gifted this book after listening to the episode. My sister is going through a rough time, and I wanted her to feel the same hope I did.” — Emily R., HR executive   These stories remind us: Midlife isn't a crisis, it's an invitation. Burnout isn't weakness, it's wisdom asking for change. And reinvention isn't about starting again, it's about starting true.    Now it's your turn: What moment or quote from Gina's journey resonated most with you? Have you ever felt like your exhaustion was running your life? We'd love to hear your thoughts.

Ever feel like no matter how clean you eat, how many supplements you take, or how well you manage your stress—you're still dealing with fatigue, brain fog, hormone imbalance, or weight loss resistance? I've been there too—and in this episode, we're talking about a game-changing factor that's often completely overlooked: your nervous system, specifically the vagus nerve. This conversation with Dr. Tony Ebel dives deep into why so many of us are stuck in chronic exhaustion and low energy despite doing “everything right.”  If you've been navigating perimenopause, digestive issues like bloating or IBS, hormone swings, or stubborn metabolism challenges, this one's for you. You'll learn how nervous system dysregulation affects hormone balance, gut health, and even how your body handles stress and detoxification. We'll explore how the HPATG axis, adrenal fatigue, cortisol, and inflammation are all downstream of a major system most of us don't prioritize enough. What You'll Hear in This Episode: A surprising root cause of brain fog and weight loss resistance that has nothing to do with your diet or workout. The overlooked connection between your gut health and vagus nerve—and how it affects bloating, constipation, and IBS. A subtle shift in your exercise routine that could totally transform your energy, metabolism, and hormone regulation. Whether you're struggling with hormonal imbalance, thyroid dysfunction, or just feel like you're running on empty, what Dr. Tony shares here is essential listening. You'll leave with a new understanding of why your body's “fight or flight” mode is working against your healing—and what you can start doing to shift into rest, regulation, and healing. And here's the best part: you don't have to overhaul everything. Just learning how to regulate your nervous system could change how your hormones, energy, and gut function—permanently. Tap play and let's talk about what's really holding you back from feeling better. Struggling with bloating, IBS, constipation, fatigue, brain fog, or hormone imbalance?

If you're searching for real answers about why you're constantly tired, struggling with weight despite eating clean, or wondering how your digestive health might be impacting your hormones—this episode breaks it down. We talk about the food system's deep flaws, how processed foods lead to insulin resistance and leaky gut, and what you can start doing today to protect your health and energy.

   Well, what do you know?  As the Royals were shopping around for ballpark locations they just decided to start spending hundreds of millions of dollars buying up properties.  Somebody affiliated with the team now owns the $164 million mortgage on the 119th street property in OP and there is no way this is a coincidence or unrelated to a new stadium.  But it also may have zero to do with the Royals wanting to go there.  We explain all the inner workings and details.    No matter what, this news comes at the perfect time to put pressure on every city and county in both states that are trying to lure the teams.  And this was needed.  Let's get this all wrapped up, please.    Dr. Jill may have to testify if her underlings refuse to do interviews with the House.  Same for Hunter.  This is all about the auto pen and who was actually running America.    AMC Theaters stock went up nearly 20% after a record setting Memorial Day weekend.... the movies are making a comeback.  Noah Cameron pitches another gem for the Royals and is off to the best start of any pitcher in Royals history.    Bill Self talks about his crazy great freshmen Darryn Peterson and settling the new rules for college sports.  Travis may be looking to pop the question with Tay Tay and what's going on with all Jack in the Box locations closing in KC?

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.

“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!

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?

About 60% of women in perimenopause report "not feeling like themselves". And it's more than just mood swings—it's about energy, memory, motivation, passion for life, intimacy, and so much more.  That's why in this week's powerful episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Kelly Casperson to dive into the often-overlooked role of hormones—especially testosterone—in women's health during perimenopause and beyond.

“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.
