What is it beyond exercise, hormones and supplements? I was at a women's retreat in a sound healing. During the session, I experienced tears and came back to the circle after realizing I thought of my biological father during that session. I hadn't thought about him over the years much at all. Is that stored trauma? Is stored trauma something we all deal with on some level? Is it something that could be limiting our ability to reach a physical health or fitness goal. Is it related to what is blocking our ability to lose weight, to heal our gut, or on a bigger level is it putting us at risk for more serious health issues? We're unpacking all of this today. If all the right things aren't working in menopause, it may go beyond hormones and gut health.    My Guest: Dr. Aimie Apigian is a leading expert in trauma, attachment, and biology, and the founder of the Biology of Trauma™. She integrates her medical expertise with specialized training in trauma therapy to address the biological patterns that maintain chronic health conditions. Through her programs and upcoming book "The Biology of Trauma: How the Body Experiences and Holds Pain, Fear and Overwhelm and How to Heal," Dr. Aimie helps people understand why common health issues persist despite perfect nutrition and lifestyle changes, and provides practical tools for complete healing at the cellular level.   Connect with Dr. Aimie: Book - Biology of Trauma  Facebook Group - Biology of Trauma Instagram - @draimie   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:06:22] Do we have to remember something traumatic for it to actually have happened to us? [00:07:57] Are both physical and emotional traumas the same in the way they manifest in the body? What is trauma? [00:14:32] Many women in midlife experience unexplained weight gain, fatigue, or hormone issues despite 'doing everything right.' Are you saying past trauma is contributing to these challenges? [00:22:53] Is there a "too late" when it comes to healing the body from these early experiences? What does stored trauma look like inside the body physiologically? [00:28:41] What are the steps to address trauma impacting body composition for women in midlife — like belly fat that "won't budge" despite good habits? [00:33:25] How do you help strong, independent women recognize that “pushing through” might sometimes be prolonging unresolved trauma patterns in the body? [00:35:13] What attachment patterns from childhood can affect our health into adulthood? [00:41:04] If you could tell every 50-something woman one thing about the link between her past experiences and her future vitality, what would it be?

If you've ever felt stuck in the cycle of bloating, gut issues, and restriction, this episode is going to speak directly to you.  In this interview, I sit down with Vital Spark functional health practitioner coach Elizabeth McMillin, whose story is as relatable as it is inspiring.  Growing up in an Italian household where gluten and dairy were staples, Elizabeth struggled with constant bloating, GI distress, and the stigma of being labeled “big-boned.” As a teen athlete, she fell into the all-too-common restrict–inflame cycle, chasing results through unsustainable habits that left her more inflamed than ever. Her turning point came when she discovered her true triggers and realized healing wasn't about restriction, but nourishment. From the relatable Lenny & Larry's cookie moment to creating her own product, HIIT Dough, Elizabeth turned her pain into purpose, proving it's possible to enjoy food without gut backlash.  In this episode, she shares how calming inflammation allowed her metabolism to finally rev back up, the underestimated role of stress and sleep in gut health, and why she's currently planning deeper functional testing postpartum. Elizabeth also opens up about life as a Special Forces wife, the resilience it demanded, and how that unique perspective now shapes the way she supports her clients. With advanced training under Dr. Carrie Jones's curriculum and deep dives into autoimmunity and hormones, she brings both credibility and compassion to her work. Most importantly, Elizabeth's story mirrors the struggles of so many women and she believes true healing comes when empathy and protocols work hand-in-hand. Whether you've battled gut issues, restrictive diets, or hormonal chaos, you'll walk away from this episode with hope, clarity, and the belief that you don't have to live in survival mode anymore. Tune in to hear how Elizabeth broke free from the restrict–inflame cycle, why she's so passionate about helping women fuel their bodies, and what's truly possible when you address the root cause. Time Stamps: (3:10) Early Gut Issues and Growing Up Italian(7:20) Navigating Inflammation(12:52) Deployment and Stress(16:20) The Creation of HIIT Dough(22:16) Pregnancy During COVID(28:57) Recent Client Case Study(35:42) What Drew Coach Elizabeth To Vital Spark(40:55) We See You(43:24) Where To Find Coach Elizabeth---------------------Follow Abbe on IG: @Blowoutsbyabbeandmore---------------------Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

Today's episode is sparked by a post that's been making waves online. It goes like this:“If this was your weekly grocery list: – 2 cartons of eggs – 2–4 grass-fed steaks – 2–3 lbs of ground beef – 1 whole chicken and fish – Vegetables of choice – Avocados and berries – 2 large Greek yogurtsYou'd lose fat, gain muscle, and have zero food cravings.”Sounds pretty good, right?But is it really that simple? Could this be the secret we've all been missing? Or is this another one-size-fits-all oversimplification dressed up as nutrition advice?Let's break it down — with science, real-life application, and practical tips for anyone chasing fat loss, muscle gain, and long-term health.Resources:Brain.fm App(First month Free, then 20% off subscription)Discount Code: coachdamiensdCaldera Lab Skin Carewww.calderalab.comDiscount Code: CoachDLinks:IG:@coachdamien_sd@damienrayevans@livinthedream_podcast YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS6VuPgtVsdBpDj5oN3YQTgFB:https://www.facebook.com/coachdamienSD/

Let's go for a walk! In this episode we explore the benefits of a daily activity that most of engage in – if we can - without thinking. It certainly doesn't require a gym membership or special equipment.  Fitness coaches Nate Wilkins and Shebah Carfagna explore evidence that regular walking supports cardiovascular health, cognitive function, mood, and lifespan—without the joint strain of running.  In our latest Move For Life conversation, we discuss why technique matters: how foot strike, posture, arm swing, and appropriate footwear can enhance the benefits and reduce the risk of injury; how adding weights, poles, or varied terrain can turn walks into full-body, social workouts that build strength and balance.  The takeaway: accessible, low-impact movement that fits daily life can meaningfully improve healthspan.You should seek medical advice before embarking on a new exercise.-----This podcast is supported by affiliate arrangements with a select number of companies.
