Beautiful soul, this episode is for any woman navigating perimenopause, menopause, or feeling confused by the emotional, mental, and physical shifts happening in her body. Julie is joined by Dr. Mindy Pelz for a powerful, grounded conversation that reframes hormonal change not as something breaking down, but as an initiation into wisdom, clarity, and deeper self-trust. Together, they explore why symptoms like brain fog, anxiety, irritability, sleep disruption, and emotional intensity are not failures, but messages from the body asking to be listened to differently. This episode gently reframes menopause as a spiritual and biological transition, intuition as a skill that strengthens with age, and metabolic health as a foundation for emotional balance. It is especially supportive for women feeling unseen by the medical system, overwhelmed by symptoms, or sensing that this season of life is calling them into a new level of leadership, truth, and alignment.

In this episode, I break down why you can feel exhausted all day but suddenly wired the moment you try to sleep. We talk about how cortisol, melatonin, blood sugar, and perimenopause all play a role, and what you can actually do to get real rest. What we cover: 1. Cortisol and melatonin basics Your circadian rhythm depends on high cortisol in the morning and low cortisol at night. If cortisol spikes in the evening, you will feel "tired but wired." Taking melatonin will not help if melatonin is normal and cortisol is the real problem. 2. How DUTCH testing reveals the root cause A DUTCH hormone test shows: Your full cortisol pattern throughout the day Melatonin output Blood sugar, nutrient, and inflammation markers Estrogen and progesterone levels that may affect sleep This is why DUTCH is so helpful for women who have tried every sleep aid with no results. One client had perfect melatonin but high nighttime cortisol. Once we targeted that, her sleep finally improved. 3. Simple tools to try tonight Protein before bed: At least 20 grams to stabilize blood sugar and quiet cortisol. Nighttime routine: Lower lights, cooler bedroom, weighted blanket, deep breathing, red light, warm bath. Journaling: Empty your brain before bed so you are not carrying mental clutter into sleep. 4. Perimenopause and sleep changes Falling progesterone can make it harder to relax or stay asleep. Supporting progesterone naturally and adding magnesium or B vitamins at night can help. 5. Herbal and nutritional support Adrenal tincture to support cortisol regulation Sleep tincture to calm the nervous system Magnesium in the evening to relax muscles and reduce tension Consistency matters. Sleep often improves gradually over three or more weeks. Why a DUTCH test is your next step  If you are done guessing, DUTCH testing shows exactly: Whether cortisol, melatonin, blood sugar, or inflammation is keeping you awake What your hormones are doing at night Which specific areas to target This saves time, money, and frustration so you can finally sleep again. You can order a DUTCH test here and get a personalized review and plan: https://drbethwestie.com/dutch-hormone-testing/ Better sleep starts with understanding what your hormones are doing behind the scenes.

Estrogen, HRT, menopause, fixes. What almost no one is talking about is the environment those hormones are being dropped into. In this episode, I break down what happens when estrogen enters a body with a high toxic load, and why hormone therapy can backfire when your detox pathways, liver, and metabolic health are compromised. We talk about xenoestrogens, fake estrogens from everyday exposures like fragrance, plastics, air pollution, and household products, and how they hijack estrogen receptors, disrupt progesterone balance, and drive symptoms that get mislabeled as “hormone problems.” This is a practical, reality-based conversation about toxic burden, not detox fantasies. If you are on HRT, considering it, struggling with stubborn symptoms, or wondering why your body feels stuck despite doing everything “right,” this episode fills in the missing piece most hormone conversations ignore.

✨Hey! This week looks a little different around here — on purpose.   Instead of our usual rhythm, I'm airing five episodes in five days.   Think of it as a mini-series designed especially for you — curated, fun, and binge-worthy. Fewer cliffhangers, more “ohhh… that makes sense.”   Every episode this week features a conversation from a show I've been invited onto as a guest — hosted by smart, generous people you'll genuinely enjoy listening to. Each episode stands on its own. Together, they create momentum. So if you've been listening here and there, this is a great week to lean in.   Start wherever you want — or (best option) listen in order and let the through-line reveal itself.    Either way, I'd love to hear what you think. Happiest and Healthiest Holidays to you and your loved ones. ✨ Episode Title: The Gut–Hormone Conversation No One Is Actually Having (Yet) Most people think hormone issues start in the ovaries, thyroid, or adrenal glands. They don't. They start in the gut. In this episode, I'm stepping into the guest seat on Vitality Radio with Jared St. Clair for a deep, practical, wait-why-did-no-one-explain-it-like-this conversation about the gut–hormone axis — and the overlooked role of something called the estrobolome. If you've ever dealt with estrogen dominance, stubborn hormone symptoms, thyroid issues that don't match your labs, or the feeling that your body just isn't responding to all the “right” things you're doing… this episode connects the dots. We unpack how gut imbalances quietly recycle hormones that should be leaving your body, why estrogen issues are often gut issues in disguise, and how digestion, detoxification, inflammation, and stress all collide in midlife — especially for women. It's nerdy in the best way, grounded in physiology (not fear), and refreshingly honest about what actually moves the needle. In This Episode, We Get Into: • What the estrobolome is — and why it matters way more than you've been told • How estrogen is supposed to leave your body… and what happens when it doesn't • Why gut dysbiosis can quietly drive estrogen dominance, PMS, PCOS, and heavy cycles • The surprising connection between gut health and thyroid conversion (T4 → T3) • How leaky gut can increase inflammation and lower testosterone (yes, in women and men) • Why hormone replacement often underperforms when the gut isn't addressed first • Simple food-based strategies that support hormone clearance — without perfection or extremes Timestamps 00:03 — Why this conversation always comes back to the gut 09:00 — What the estrobolome is (and why it explains so much) 13:00 — Estrogen recycling, beta-glucuronidase, and the “garbage truck” analogy you won't forget 21:00 — Fiber, inflammation, and why small changes matter more than perfect ones 28:00 — Gut health and thyroid conversion (when labs look fine but you feel awful) 34:00 — Leaky gut, testosterone, and why hormones don't operate in isolation 41:00 — Where to actually start if this feels overwhelming The Big Takeaway Hormones don't malfunction in isolation. They respond to the environment inside your body — especially in the gut. Great news, it's fixable. When digestion, detoxification, and inflammation are off, hormones get louder… not because they're broken, but because they're stuck in the wrong feedback loop. This episode is about stepping out of symptom-chasing mode and into physiology-first thinking — where the goal isn't control, restriction, or another protocol… but restoring systems that already know what to do. Where To Find Me

Get My Brand Masterlist ⁠https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Episode Description You see "supports hormonal balance" on the label and trust your estrogen supplement is pure, potent, and safe. But are you actually getting what you paid for—or playing Russian roulette with your hormones? Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated the estrogen supplement industry with one critical question: can these brands prove their products are free from heavy metal contamination, maintain potency through expiration, and deliver the exact hormone dosage claimed on the label through third-party Certificates of Analysis (COAs)? The shocking reality? Most companies can't—or won't—provide basic proof of purity and potency. You're expected to trust your delicate hormonal system to manufacturers who refuse transparency about what's actually in the bottle. This isn't about being overly cautious—it's about protecting your endocrine system, bone health, and long-term vitality from contaminated or ineffective hormone supplementation. When you consume estrogen supplements without verified purity testing, you risk hormonal disruption, heavy metal accumulation, and health consequences that could take years to manifest. The hidden dangers lurking in estrogen supplements: • Heavy metal contamination including lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury that bioaccumulate and disrupt hormonal pathways • Potency deception: hormone levels guaranteed only at manufacturing, not expiration—meaning dosing becomes unpredictable over time • Undisclosed synthetic additives and fillers that interfere with estrogen metabolism and liver detoxification • Contamination from yeast, mold, and bacteria in raw materials that trigger inflammatory immune responses • Dosage inconsistency between what's listed on the label and what third-party testing actually reveals in the capsule • Zero verification of bioidentical claims—you could be taking synthetic estrogens marketed as natural In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez reveals: • Why the estrogen supplement industry operates with virtually zero accountability for purity, potency, or safety standards • The critical difference between bioidentical and synthetic estrogen—and why most brands can't prove which one they're selling • How heavy metal-contaminated estrogen supplements create a double assault on your endocrine system and detox pathways • The liver burden, breast tissue sensitivity, and cardiovascular risks amplified by low-quality estrogen supplementation • Why COAs (Certificates of Analysis) are the ONLY way to verify what's actually in your supplement—and why most brands refuse to provide them • The regulatory loopholes allowing estrogen supplements to skip third-party testing and still make bold health claims • Safer, cleaner alternatives for supporting estrogen balance through whole-food sources and lifestyle optimization This episode goes beyond hormone replacement—it's about understanding that estrogen influences everything from bone density and brain function to cardiovascular health and cancer risk. It's about demanding proof before putting synthetic or contaminated hormones into your body daily, and recognizing that the supplement industry profits from your trust, not your health outcomes. The estrogen supplement industry doesn't want you asking for COAs. But your hormonal health depends on it.

Migraines affect women three to four times more often than men, largely due to hormonal fluctuations that sensitize the brain's pain pathways and increase vulnerability to stress, poor sleep, and inflammation Estrogen both primes and triggers migraine attacks — high levels heighten sensitivity, while sudden drops before menstruation or after childbirth cause the electrical instability that sparks pain Natural progesterone helps counteract estrogen's pro-inflammatory effects, calming nerve excitability and reducing migraine frequency during hormonally active years Mitochondrial dysfunction is a major driver of migraines; reducing linoleic acid from seed oils and restoring nutrients like magnesium, CoQ10, and B vitamins strengthens your brain's energy supply and resilience Supporting melatonin through morning sunlight, minimizing blue light exposure at night, and maintaining oral and circadian health naturally lowers inflammation, helping prevent migraines and improve overall brain function

If you're exhausted, craving everything, lifting weights, and still wondering why nothing is changing… this episode is for you. I'm sitting down with Dr. Aleksandra Gajer, an ER physician who left traditional medicine to focus on what actually helps women over 40 feel better: metabolic health, hormones, and peptides. We talk about what peptides really are (no, not steroids), why GLP-1s cracked the door open, and how midlife women can use these tools safely to support energy, sleep, recovery, muscle, and brain health without shortcuts or sketchy internet nonsense. Today's conversation is not about biohacking. It's about gaining clarity for women who are tired of being told "everything looks normal." What We Cover · Why unexplained fatigue is so common after 40 What peptides actually do in the body Why weight loss resistance ramps up in perimenopause Estrogen dominance, cortisol, stress, and belly fat made simple Why muscle is the real anti-aging strategy Peptides that support: · Energy Sleep Recovery Body composition Why peptides don't work if your lifestyle is a hot mess The danger of buying peptides from random dudes on Instagram What peptide "stacking" really means Brain health, anxiety, and what's coming next When it's time to run labs even if your doctor says you're "fine" Work With Dr. Gajer Website: theguyerpractice.com Instagram: @thegajerpractice https://the-gajer-practice.mykajabi.com/drgajer-nwlc-program-waitlist Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/@TheGajerPractice We would love people to sign up for consultations If this episode clicked for you, screenshot it, share it, and tag your biggest "ohhh that makes sense" moment.

I'll be honest, menopause used to feel like something I would deal with later, distant and a little intimidating. This conversation with Dr. Mindy Pelz completely reframed that for me. We talk about menopause as a neurological and metabolic reset, not a decline, and why so many women feel raw, overstimulated, or suddenly done with people pleasing when estrogen drops. Dr. Pelz explains what's happening in the brain, why that shift can feel uncomfortable at first, and how it often signals clarity, stronger boundaries, and a deeper sense of self.→ Leave Us A Voice Message!

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared takes on a fear-based narrative that has been circulating widely in the natural health space—claims that supplements are “toxic,” “fake,” or made from alarming industrial sources. Using vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 as the focal point, Jared breaks down where tiny fragments of truth have been exaggerated into misleading conclusions, and why that kind of half-truth can be more dangerous than an outright lie. If you've ever felt confused or alarmed by supplement claims on social media, this episode will help you develop a more grounded, critical framework—one rooted in physiology, context, and practical application rather than ideology or outrage.Products:Vital D3/K2 High PotencyVital D3/K2Buy D-Mannose Powder and get CranActin FREE ($20 value) - Vitality Radio POW!

What if aging didn't mean decline, burnout, or stubborn weight gain but a powerful metabolic and neurological upgrade? In this in-studio episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi sits down with Dr. Mindy Pelz to discuss her brand new book Age Like a Girl and share science backed strategies for women over 40 who want better metabolic health, sustainable fat loss, and hormonal balance. Dr. Mindy reframes aging as a biological initiation rather than a breakdown, explaining why stubborn belly fat, fatigue, and stress resistance are signals of adaptation, not failure. Together, Ben and Mindy break down simple but powerful habits that lower cortisol, restore insulin sensitivity, and help women shift from survival mode into strength. This conversation explores fasting rhythms for women over 40, the neurochemical changes of menopause, why walking is one of the most underrated metabolic tools, and how environment and relationships directly influence fat loss and healing. It is both deeply scientific and profoundly human. If you are feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice, frustrated with your body, or ready to embrace the next chapter of your health with clarity and confidence, this episode is a must listen. Key Topics Covered Why fat gain is a protective intelligence, not a failure How walking lowers cortisol and restores nervous system balance Eating only during daylight for better insulin signaling The most effective fasting rhythm for women over 40 Carnivore fasting and why it accelerates fat loss safely Estrogen loss and the shift to ketone based metabolism Dopamine, motivation, and the neurochemistry of menopause Why environment and relationships affect metabolic success Menopause as a neurological and emotional initiation Why self prioritization is essential for long term health

Are you wondering if you need constant blood tests before starting hormone replacement therapy? In this video, we explain hormone replacement therapy for menopause in clear, practical terms, and why excessive lab testing isn't always necessary. At Allure Medical, we treat menopause as a clinical condition, not a lab number. Menopause is defined by symptoms and life stage, not by a single blood test result. You'll learn how we determine whether hormone therapy is appropriate, what bioidentical hormones are, and why we focus on results that actually improve energy, sleep, mood, and quality of life. We also review when lab testing is helpful, such as early menopause, surgical menopause, or cases where symptoms don't improve as expected. By the end of this video, you'll understand how we personalize hormone replacement therapy for menopause to support your long-term health safely and effectively. If you're exploring bioidentical hormone therapy for women, or simply want to understand how menopause is truly evaluated, this guide will give you the clarity you need. Timestamps:00:00 — Introduction: Understanding Menopause and Hormone Therapy 00:20 — Why Most Blood Tests for Menopause Don't Help 01:10 — The Real Definition of Menopause and Perimenopause 02:00 — When Lab Work Is Useful for Diagnosis 03:10 — The Role of Estrogen, Progesterone, and Testosterone 04:00 — How Hormone Levels Affect Symptoms 04:45 — When to Adjust Hormone Therapy Without Testing 05:15 — Benefits of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement TherapyLearn More: https://www.alluremedical.com/Books & Research: https://www.alluremedical.com/books/Follow Dr. Charles Mok & Allure Medical: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charles-mok-4a0432114/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alluremedicals/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AllureMedical TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@alluremedicalAmazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Dr.-Charles-Mok/author/B0791M9FZQInner Circle Membership: https://www.alluremedical.com/inner-circle-membership/Subscribe to the show & leave a 5-star review!#insidethecure

Send us a textHot flashes don't keep a schedule, and neither do lab numbers. We sit down with Dr. Rachel Novik of Cleveland Clinic's Center for Specialized Women's Health to cut through the noise around perimenopause, menopause, and hormone testing—and focus on what actually helps you feel like yourself again.We talk about why the most reliable “diagnosis” of menopause is still 12 months without a period, and when lab work like estradiol and FSH can be helpful for patients with hormonal IUDs or after hysterectomy. She breaks down common myths about the Dutch test and other urine hormone panels, explains why major medical societies don't endorse them for menopause, and shows how chasing unvalidated numbers can drive unnecessary supplements and costs without improving outcomes.If you're overwhelmed by conflicting advice on “balancing hormones,” this episode offers a calmer path: collaborate with a clinician, align on goals, and judge success by how you feel, not a single number.Support the show

We dive into what's actually happening in peri- and postmenopause (hormonally, neurologically, and physically) and how those changes show up on the bike. From fear on technical trails, to fatigue, difficulties concentrating, to the “hit by a truck” recovery days… none of this is random. This episode is science-based and NOT only for women

In this episode of the Bacon Bibles and Barbells podcast, Coaches Justin and Amanda discuss the recent controversy surrounding trans athlete Jamie Booker in the strongman competition. They explore the implications of biological differences in strength sports, the role of hormones, and the impact of performance-enhancing drugs. The conversation also delves into the integrity of competitions, the future of women's categories, and theological perspectives on gender identity. The hosts emphasize the importance of navigating conversations on gender with truth and love, while also addressing the destructive nature of living in sin.   Takeaways Jamie Booker won the women's strongman title but was later disqualified. Biological differences between men and women significantly impact strength sports. Estrogen does not cause muscle wasting as commonly believed. The integrity of competitions is crucial for fair play. Future regulations may require chromosome testing for female competitors. Theological perspectives suggest that God created male and female intentionally. Living in sin can lead to destructive outcomes for individuals. Navigating gender identity conversations requires sensitivity and truth. Social environments can influence personal beliefs and identities. It's important to seek spiritual guidance rather than affirmation from social media.

In this episode, Laura and I discussed the intricate relationship between hormones, weight loss, and overall health, particularly for women in midlife.We explored the roles of key hormones like estrogen and testosterone, the misconceptions surrounding hormonal balance, and the importance of lifestyle factors such as nutrition and exercise.The conversation emphasizes the need for individualized approaches to hormonal health and the significance of self-care practices in enhancing quality of life.“Balancing hormones is often misunderstood.”“The importance of muscle mass in metabolism.”“Self-care practices enhance overall well-being.”Takeaways-Hormones play a significant role in weight loss and body composition.-Lifestyle factors are equally important as hormonal changes.-The concept of ‘balancing hormones' is often misunderstood.-Hormone replacement therapy can improve quality of life for women.-Estrogen and testosterone are crucial for maintaining muscle mass.-Nutrition should be tailored to individual hormonal needs.-Mental health is affected by hormonal fluctuations during menopause.-Self-care practices like meditation can enhance overall well-being.-Quality of life is more important than just longevity.-Women are increasingly seeking information about their hormonal health.

An unfortunately all too common way to lose your autonomy and stop living before you die, and to die sooner and more painfully, is to suffer an osteoporotic fracture in your old age.  The time to prevent that from happening to you in your 80s is right now.  And it's not about calcium, vitamin D, or even bone mineral density.  Most of what you've heard about bone health as you age is wrong or not enough.  Let's change that, because the world needs you to show up more as you get older, not less.Visit my website: www.healthcouragecollective.comAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: healthcouragecollective@gmail.com

Millions of women in their 30s–50s are being told they're “depressed” when their brains and hormones are simply changing. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz to unpack the truth about midlife mood shifts, rage, and the hormonal fluctuations that mimic depression but aren't the same. We break down the science of perimenopause, why women are so often misdiagnosed, and how decades of excluding women from research left major gaps in understanding how estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone shape the brain. Dr. Gilberg-Lenz reveals how hormonal changes—starting up to ten years before menopause—can transform mood, cognition, and stress, and how modern science is finally catching up to just how powerfully hormones influence the mind. About the guest:Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz is a board-certified OB/GYN and integrative women's health expert who blends conventional medicine with Ayurvedic training. A USC-trained physician with a residency at Cedars-Sinai, she supports women from adolescence through menopause and is the author of Menopause Bootcamp (Harper Wave, 2022). Her work focuses on demystifying midlife, challenging ageism in healthcare, and empowering women with science-based guidance.

There comes a point in midlife when you look in the mirror and realize your skin feels different. Maybe it is suddenly drier, more reactive, or simply not bouncing back the way it used to! In this episode, Dr. Mina explains the powerful role estrogen plays in collagen, hydration, elasticity, and the overall strength of your skin. She walks through what declining estrogen in perimenopause and postmenopause really means, what the research shows about topical estrogen, and how it compares to systemic hormone therapy. She also shares practical advice on when topical estrogen might be helpful, what to expect from it, and why foundational skin care habits still matter most.  Key Takeaways: ✓ Estrogen keeps skin firm, hydrated, and resilient, so midlife declines can lead to dryness, sensitivity, and a weakened skin barrier. ✓ Topical estrogen is considered very safe with minimal systemic absorption and does not require progesterone. ✓ Sun protection and retinoids remain the most important steps for healthy, aging skin, and topical estrogen works best as an add-on. ✓ Vaginal estrogen remains essential for pelvic health, but facial estrogen is still an emerging area, so a personalized dermatology conversation is key. ✓ Treating sun damage with peels or lasers may improve how well topical estrogen works on photo-aged skin.   Tune in and let Dr. Mina guide you through what topical estrogen can offer, what it cannot, and how to care for your skin in a way that helps you feel more at home in your own reflection again.

Encore: E is for Estrogen with Dr Lori Beth Bisbey

Can you use vaginal estrogen and systemic hormone therapy?Absolutely — and most women actually need both.If you're still experiencing:• dryness or burning• painful sex• tearing when you wipe• urinary urgency/frequency• recurrent UTIs…it's not you, and it's not that your hormones “aren't working.”It's that systemic estrogen doesn't fully treat Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM).Here's what the research shows:✔ Up to 84% of women experience GSM✔ 20–30% of women on systemic HT still need vaginal estrogen✔ 50–70% benefit from using bothLocal vaginal therapy directly restores the vulvar and vaginal tissue.You deserve comfort, pleasure, and confidence again.Relief is absolutely possible.

In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how specific herbs in our cycle-based tinctures support your hormones in a real, clinical way—not just "woo" or wishful thinking. We talk through five key herbs you'll find in my Estrogen support and progesterone-support tinctures—red clover, angelica, white peony, Vitex, and red raspberry leaf—and what they actually do in the body: How red clover helps your estrogen receptors work properly (without "adding more estrogen") so you can calm brain fog, mood swings, and night sweats. Why angelica and white peony are powerful blood- and yin-tonics that support your liver, improve hormone metabolism, and ease estrogen dominance symptoms like heavy bleeding and ragey PMS. How white peony and Vitex work on the luteal phase to support progesterone, stabilize your cycle, and improve PMS, sleep, and even fertility. Why red raspberry leaf is a true uterine tonic that supports cramping, irregular cycles, and overall uterine health. I share how these tinctures are used in a cycle-specific way (Estrogen days 1–14, progesterone support days 15–28), why tincture form is so much more potent and adjustable than a one-size-fits-all capsule, and how they fit into a functional medicine approach—layered with nutrition, lifestyle, and, when needed, hormone testing.

The FDA just made history, and it changes everything for women's health. After 23 years, the FDA removed the black box warning from estrogen therapy. This is a MASSIVE win for women everywhere.

Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode!Menopause can feel like your body changed the rulebook without warning. One day you're handling pressure just fine; the next, a slammed door spikes your heart rate and your mind won't quit. I pull back the curtain on why stress tolerance can collapse at midlife and how to rebuild it with smarter hormone care, steadier blood sugar, and nervous system-aware tools that actually fit real life.I grow tired of experts telling us to control our stress.  Or limit our stress.  This is nonsensical to me because we can only mitigate the effects stress has on our bodies and we can't make it disappear.  Ignoring it, numbing it, also doesn't work at menopause. I have MANY different tools to help mitigate the effects of stress. NuCalm is a tool I've been using for many years now.  I was one of their early supporters and affiliates, and I remain a big believer.  Use this link for a free trial!!  And if you love it, use SANDYK for a discount.https://nucalm.com/free-trial?ref=sandy54Email me your questions, topics, or comments to be featured on my show - whether anonymous or not - your choice.  sandy@sandyknutrition.ca.Follow me on all of my socials - @sandyknutrition everywhere.Who am I? I don't define myself by my past, but it's a big part of my story. In 2010, my five-year-old daughter was diagnosed with cancer, and just a year later, I was too, but with thyroid cancer at 41. Fast forward to now, at 55, I'm navigating menopause and constantly learning what it truly means to thrive - body, mind, spirit and soul - to this next chapter of my life.Along the way, I went back to college, became a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, earned numerous certifications, and started this podcast just before the pandemic. I come to you not only as a practitioner and a podcaster, but as a woman who's lived it, someone driven by passion over profit, and a genuine desire to help others heal, grow, and live with more vitality, purpose, and joy.Beyond the basics, I spotlight underused supports. Adaptogens can help some, but they won't fix trauma or misaligned hormones. I also lean into the deeper layer: how menopause can surface old beliefs and hypervigilance, and  about BEAM Therapy.

As we explore this vital subject, I emphasize the uniqueness of each individual's journey through hormonal shifts, whether during perimenopause, menopause, or even monthly cycles. Recognizing the natural ebb and flow of hormonal changes, I reassure listeners that they are not "broken" or "losing it"—rather, their bodies are in a transformative phase, prompting a deeper understanding and connection to self.I lay the foundation by discussing the physiological impacts of fluctuating hormone levels and outline how these changes can manifest as various emotional and physical sensations. The transition can trigger new feelings of anxiety, identity crises, and insights into how one's life roles have evolved. It's essential to approach these transitions with curiosity, as understanding the interplay between hormones, stress, and emotional well-being can empower women during this compelling time.Commencing with an intimate exploration of the effects of estrogen and progesterone, I highlight how these hormones influence mood and anxiety levels. Listeners are encouraged to recognize that increased anxiety during these transitions is not a sign of weakness but rather a normal physiological response. I present practical strategies for self-care, including breathing techniques and grounding exercises, to help ease anxiety and cultivate a nurturing relationship with oneself. By advocating for slow exhale breathing, comforting mantras, and gentle physical practices, I offer tools that can aid women in navigating this sensitive phase with grace.#Perimenopause, #Menopause, #MidlifeAnxiety, #HormonalAnxiety, #WomensHealth, #TheChangeOfLife, #AnxietyRelief, #MidlifeTransition, #Recalibration, #IdentityShift, #Estrogen, #Progesterone, #NervousSystem, #StressManagement, #PrioritizeSleep, #SelfCare, #SetBoundaries, #GABA, #SlowExhale, #YouAreNotBroken, #GinaRyan, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #ChristianeNorthrup, #FemininePower, #NotLosingIt, #AnxietySupport, #MentalWellness, #StressRelief, #MindBodyConnection, #LifeTransitions, #SelfCompassion, #NervousSystemRegulation, #EmotionalHealth, #HealthJourney, #PersonalGrowth, #SelfHelp, #InnerPeace, #Midlife, #HormoneHealth, #WellbeingJourney, #DeepBreathing, #GroundingTechniques, #MentalClarity, #Recalibration, #ItsOkayToStruggle, #FindingYourCenter, #PodcastForAnxiety, #AuthenticSelf, #ChangingRhythms #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of The Health Revival Show, I dive into three critical topics affecting your health. First, we discuss the recent FDA decision to remove the black box warning on hormone replacement therapy (HRT), shedding light on the implications for women's health. Next, I tackle the controversial subject of flu shots, exploring their effectiveness and the factors influencing your decision to get vaccinated. Lastly, I provide actionable insights on how to recover after experiencing a stomach bug, focusing on nutrition and hydration strategies that can help restore your gut health. Join me for an informative and engaging conversation that empowers you to make informed health choices.

Facelift prep, hormone therapy choices, and the real side effects no one wants to say out loud. Chalene takes you behind the scenes on stopping estrogen before surgery, switching from injections to testosterone cream, and testing an estrogen patch, plus how progesterone keeps her sleep on track. She also flags a Neutrogena makeup wipe recall and why telehealth shortcuts around GLP-1s can backfire. Consider this a candid pre-op diary with zero politics and full transparency, plus details on the documentary she is filming of the entire recovery. If you are curious about perimenopause symptoms, HRT delivery methods, and GLP-1 risk conversations, this one will save you time and stress.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. David Sinclair, PhD, a professor of genetics at Harvard Medical School and a leading expert on the biology of aging. We discuss the cellular and molecular mechanisms of aging—and how specific behaviors, such as fasting, regular exercise and NAD⁺-boosting compounds like NMN, can activate the body's natural longevity pathways. This discussion highlights how lifestyle choices profoundly influence the aging process and may even slow or reverse key aspects of biological aging. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
