Perimenopause does not have to be the beginning of decline, but can instead be the start of your strongest chapter! In this inspiring success story, Louise, a leading expert for perimenopausal active women and runners, sits down with Jen, an everyday runner and mom who transformed her health, hormones, and body composition after years of frustration. Jen shares how anxiety, overtraining, fasting, and misinformation left her injured and stuck, despite doing everything she thought was “right.” The turning point came when she learned to fuel her body to build beautiful hormones and mitigate symptoms, apply specific targeted strength training, adjust her running, and work with her hormones instead of against them.Listeners will take away a powerful reminder that thriving in perimenopause does not require extreme diets or complicated protocols. Simple yet strategic consistent habits are often the most effective. This episode also highlights how community support, understanding your body's signals, and using whole foods strategically can improve energy, reduce inflammation, and restore confidence.If you feel discouraged by changing hormones, stubborn belly fat, being told there is nothing you can do about your genetic predispositions, or frustrating injuries that make you question your future as an active woman, Jen's story shows what is possible with the right approach, support, and mindset.RESOURCESLearn with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/ Take Injury Prevention for Women Runners 30+ or my Female Runners Guide to Support Optimal Ferritin Masterclasses mentioned here.Grab a free monthly goal planning calendar & learn how to use it here.Get $25 off Function's comprehensive labs here or use code LVALENTINE11 Check out FullScript here where you can see curated supplement picks & save 20% off.

Did you know your skincare products could be affecting your bones and overall health? In this episode, I sit down with Cynthia Garcia, founder of Rewritten Beauty, as we dive into how the skincare products you use can impact your bones and overall health. Cynthia shares insights from her extensive research into the science of aging and the dangerous endocrine disruptors found in common beauty products. We discuss why skincare isn't just about appearance but also plays a role in your body's health, including the hormonal balance critical to maintaining strong bones.  Cynthia explains how aging (zombie) cells deplete collagen and cause inflammation in the skin and offers a revolutionary solution that not only targets these zombie cells but also helps regenerate new, healthy skin.  Plus, we talk about how to create a healthy skincare ritual that supports both beauty and well-being. You won't want to miss Cynthia's practical tips for avoiding harmful ingredients and rewriting the narrative around aging.   "I knew we had to rewrite the story about aging first and foremost, then we had to give people a great product." ~ Cynthia Garcia   In this episode: - [02:40] - The statement that started it all - [04:05] - One of the causes of aging and the role of zombie cells - [05:37] - The prevalence and dangers of endocrine disruptors in beauty products - [11:35] - The "Rewritten" approach to clear zombie cells and rejuvenate skin - [21:09] - Bathroom cabinet audit + skincare rituals for beauty and well-being - [26:14] - Lessons from Cynthia's experience: How to rewrite your story  - [36:23] - The importance of community for transforming your life - [41:52] - Details about Cynthia's coaching programs    Resources mentioned - If you want to try Rewritten's anti-aging senolytic serum, head to rewrittenbeauty.com and use code HAPPYBONES for 15% off — or subscribe and stack the code for 30% off for life - Fullscript supplements at a discounted price- https://tinyurl.com/supplementsforless - Happy Bones Club (Margie's membership) - https://www.happyboneshappylife.com/bones-club   More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/  - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/  - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en    DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.

She owns Powell Pharmacy, an Integrative Pharmacy in Powell, Ohio as well as Emlah Naturals, a third-party-tested dietary supplement line. Her focus on whole-person health emphasizes her pharmacy practice philosophy of "There is more to health than prescriptions". Her work is based on the pillars of Intentional Living: Nutrition, Movement, Inner Alignment, and Positive Social Connections.    Lessons learned about Emlah or podcasting in this episode: We first met at the Ohio Pharmacists Association Annual Meeting in 2022. Her path from college graduate to independent pharmacy owner took her from Cameroon to Powell, OH (Columbus, Ohio area) Emlah started her podcast in 2025. She hesitated because she didn't think she was ready. Friends and family encouraged Emlah to start her podcast. Tim Ulbrich, PharmD was mentioned. Say "yes" to opportunities even when you don't feel fully prepared. Emlah's philosophy of Intentional Living & Integrative Pharmacy is carried out throughout her episodes.  She used a table analogy to talk a out the Four Pillars of Intentional Living (surface = intentional living; 4 legs = pillars) Modern medicine + lifestyle + supplements can coexist; we don't have to live in extremes. Use nutrition to support medications Movement can be simple and accessible, like walking 30 minutes daily. Inner Alignment includes meditation, prayer, journaling, walking in nature, laughter, dancing, and more. Positive Social Connections prevent loneliness and promote longevity and fulfillment. Be intentional with whom you spend your time. Vitamin D is important. Know your Vitamin D level, and aim for an optimal level.  Powell Pharmacy "does healthcare differently." For example, Comprehensive Health Reviews. Powell Pharmacy staff do > 100 squats/day!  Emlah's podcast reaches an international audience. She enjoys learning about her audience. She publishes solo and interview shows. Episodes are around 30 min or less.  Emlah's approach to overcoming tech intimidation with podcasting included delegating tasks. Every podcast episode includes an "intentional initiative." Emlah offers Professional Development Resources for Pharmacists. To learn more, visit https://www.dremlahtubuo.com/  Advice for aspiring podcasters: be a guest first, listen to good podcasts, learn from podcast hosts, don't wait for everything to be perfect Scheduling guests can be a challenge Apply Emlah's "Do, Delegate, Delete" strategy with intention.  Batching episodes prevents burnout and inconsistency. It's okay if the podcast also serves you (you get something out of podcasting) Share what's in your head as a pharmacist podcaster.  Build a tribe—personally and professionally.   Subscribe to Emlah's newsletter https://intentional-living-newsletter.kit.com/profile/posts Check out these two issues of Emlah's previous newsletters: Discover Journeys: A New Way to Understand and Empower Health https://intentional-living-newsletter.kit.com/posts/discover-journeys-a-new-way-to-understand-and-empower-your-health  So Much Growth to Share https://intentional-living-newsletter.kit.com/posts/so-much-growth-to-share-catch-up-on-our-latest-updates    Links from this episode  Dr. Emlah Tubuo's Business Website https://www.dremlahtubuo.com/ Dr. Emlah Tubuo on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/emlahtubuo/  Dr. Emlah on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dr.emlahtubuo/  Powell Pharmacy on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/powellpharmacyoh  Dr. Emlah on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@dr.emlahtubuo  Education on Emlah's website: Pharmacist Fullscript Account Setup  Education on Emlah's website: Lunch and learn supplement knowledge Education on Emlah's website: Discuss Dietary Supplements with confidence Learn about Journeys Lab Testing for Pharmacists   Connect with Emlah (via her website) Listen to my 1st interview with Dr. Emlah Tubuo (April 2022) https://bit.ly/4kRxcrz  Read Kim's book - Pharmacist Podcaster: A Podcast Planning Guide for Pharmacy Professionals   Pharmacist Podcasters Series Part 1 with Ola Latala, PharmD (The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 248) Part 2 with Deeb Eid, PharmD (The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 253) Part 3 with Justin Cole, PharmD (The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 257) Part 4 with Christina Fontana, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 262 Part 5 with Tony Dao, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 266 Part 6 with Dr. H (Hussam Hamoush, PharmD) The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 275 Part 7 with Julie Doan, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 297 Part 8 with Tim Ulbrich, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 306  Part 9 with Zain Syed, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 310 Part 10 with Rachel Gainsbrugh, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 323  Part 11 with Danielle Plummer, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 329 Part 12 with Cory Jenks, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 334  Part 13 with Brooke Griffin, PharmD The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast Episode 357 Part 14 with Emlah Tubuo, PharmD (today!)   If you need help starting your podcast, I can help.

At some point in midlife, many women quietly ask, “Who am I now?” I remember facing that question myself at 48, newly separated and adjusting to a home that was suddenly much quieter. It can feel disorienting when your body is changing, your roles are shifting, and the old rules no longer seem to apply, yet the world still expects you to carry on as usual.In this episode, we explore authenticity in midlife and what it really means to become more yourself, not less, through perimenopause and beyond.I'm joined by Dr. Gail Saltz, MD, a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, to unpack the cultural narratives women have absorbed about aging, beauty, relevance, and identity. We discuss why this stage can feel unsettling and how to move through it with clarity, self-respect, and even joy.Dr. Gail Saltz is best known for her work as a relationship, family, emotional well-being, and mental health contributor in the media, where she is a go-to expert for commentary on the mental health aspects of current/breaking issues and news. She is a bestselling author of numerous books, including “The Power of Different: The Link Between Disorder and Genius,” and serves as a Medical Expert for the Physicians for Human Rights. Dr. Saltz is an Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the NY Presbyterian Hospital Weill-Cornell School of Medicine, a psychoanalyst with the New York Psychoanalytic Institute, has a private practice in Manhattan, and hosts the "How Can I Help?" podcast.Medical Disclaimer:By listening to this podcast, you agree not to use this podcast as medical advice or to make any lifestyle changes to treat any medical condition in yourself or others.

Most symptoms we're dealing with as active women and runners aren't random at all, but are instead clues our body is trying to give us.In this episode, Louise, a multi-award-winning women's integrative health practitioner, shares three powerful lessons from her own health journey and client experiences that every woman should know, especially during perimenopause. She explains how hormone shifts can impact everything from medical testing accuracy to inflammation, fat loss resistance, stress sensitivity, and even unexpected symptoms like canker sores. One key insight is the importance of timing medical screenings, such as breast MRIs, with your menstrual cycle to improve accuracy. Another is the complex relationship between estrogen, histamine, and hormone replacement therapy, and how individual genetics can influence reactions.Louise also highlights how stress, calorie restriction, and hormonal fluctuations can trigger symptoms that seem unrelated, and offers practical strategies to manage acute issues while still addressing root causes like gut health and hormone balance.This episode is a reminder that women's health is highly individualized. Understanding your unique physiology, tracking patterns, and using targeted strategies can help you feel more in control, improve performance, and support long-term health through every stage of life.Explore my "All About Gut Health" and other masterclasses here: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/store Link to my FullScript where you can see curated best supplement picks and save 20%: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Learn and level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products.

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. Breathing trouble changes the whole mood of a home—especially when a child wakes at midnight tight-chested and scared. We wanted a plan that feels calm, clear, and practical, so we walk through how to read asthma patterns and match them to targeted homeopathic remedies without sidelining common-sense medical care. You'll hear how triggers like colds, nighttime anxiety, damp mornings, mold, or exercise point to different choices, plus what improvement really looks like in the moment.We dig into a focused remedy toolkit: Spongia for dry, barking coughs; Antimonium tart for rattly chests that can't move mucus; Arsenicum for midnight fear and suffocation feelings; Ipecac for wheeze with nausea; Nat sulph for damp-weather and morning tightness; Blatta orientalis for dust and mold links; Bryonia for painful, stillness-seeking breathing; and Phosphorus for sensitive, easily overwhelmed lungs. We also share practical dosing guidance—start low and slow, reassess if nothing shifts, and use the rescue inhaler when needed. If a remedy consistently helps a known trigger, we discuss when prophylaxis makes sense and when to wait.Because asthma isn't just lungs—it's nerves, sleep, and emotion—we add supportive tools that steady the whole system. Magnesium to relax bronchial muscles, avoiding cold dairy during colds, steam to move congestion, time outdoors for vitamin D and regulation, and playful breathwork like bubbles, pinwheels, and lion's breath to ease panic and lengthen exhalations. We close with clear red flags for urgent care and a simple way to build your own “flare card” so the right remedy is at your fingertips. Subscribe, share this with a friend who's up at night with a wheezer, and leave a review with the trigger you want help mapping—we'll build future guides around your questions. You may also gain Access to my Fullscript dispensary and save 30% by going to: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/mcrenshawFIND ME!

Often, the reason we feel tired, stuck, or frustrated in our training, fitness, and health as active women and runners has nothing to do with willpower and everything to do with under-fueling relative to our female body's energy and support needs.In this powerful conversation, host Louise Valentine, one of the world's leading exercise physiologists and women's integrative health practitioners specializing in active women and recreational runners, sits down with Dr. Megan Hellner to unpack how active women, especially runners over 35, unknowingly fall into Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) and disordered eating patterns. They explain why always eating “clean” or following strict food rules that eliminate nourishing foods can disrupt hormones, damage health, and limit performance.You will learn how fear of carbs, diet culture, misleading marketing, and social media trends quietly drain our energy and resilience. Dr. Hellner shares why RED-S can affect women of all body sizes, how to recognize early warning signs, and when mental health support matters. Together, they emphasize returning to simple, evidence-based fueling, honoring food preferences to keep a sense of joy and balance in life, and building flexibility around eating.This episode reminds you that food is not the enemy. When you fuel well and in alignment with your female body's needs, it recovers better, performs stronger, and supports long-term vibrant health. If you want to run, train, and live with confidence through perimenopause and beyond, this conversation offers clarity, relief, and practical direction.Find a Practical Early Risk RED-S Screening Checklist here: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/blog/a-practical-red-s-early-risk-self-screen-checklist Learn more about Dr. Megan & colleagues virtual eating disorder clinic: www.AthleatMD.comDr. Megan Hellner's Email: Megan@AthleatMD.com Learn & level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/ Link to our FullScript where you can see curated best supplement picks & save 20%: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products.

Confused about which osteoporosis supplements actually work and which ones may be doing more harm than good? In this episode, we clear up the supplement confusion as Dr. Kim Millman returns to discuss the most important supplements for osteoporosis and the common mistakes people make when taking them.  From calcium forms to magnesium ratios, vitamin D optimization, vitamin K2, genistein, and protein, we clarify what supports bone health and what could increase cardiovascular risk. Dr. Millman explains the "calcium paradox," why more calcium is not always better, and how to determine the right amount based on your lab values.  We also explore vitamin K's role in directing calcium into bones (and out of arteries), research on genistein compared with Fosamax, and why adequate protein is essential to prevent sarcopenia and bone loss. If you want evidence-based guidance on building stronger bones safely and effectively, this episode gives you exactly that.   "You really need to have enough protein to fuel your muscles. Without it, sufficient rebuilding is not possible." ~ Dr. Kim Millman   In this episode: - [02:01] - Best forms of calcium or other minerals (and what to avoid) - [05:01] - The calcium paradox: how much calcium is too much?  - [08:30] - Should you stop taking calcium if the CAC score is high? - [11:40] - Magnesium, zinc: types and correct ratios - [15:27] - Optimal vitamin D blood levels - [18:19] - Why vitamin K2 is essential for the bones - [24:45] - Genistein vs. Fosamax research - [30:22] - Protein, sarcopenia, and bone strength - [33:45] - Dr. Millman's consults, courses, and bone health programs   Resources mentioned - Restore & Rebuild: 100 Days to Healthier Bones - https://themillmanclinic.com/randr - use coupon code HappyS26100 for $100 discount - Certified Integrative Bone Health Practitioner Program - https://www.thebonehealthacademy.com  - Contact Dr. Millman's office - (408) 218- 9301 and DrKim@TheMillmanClinic.com - Get quality supplements at Margie's Fullscript dispensary for a discounted price - https://tinyurl.com/supplementsforless   More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/  - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/  - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en    DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.

Starting around age 40, women can lose 3 to 8 percent of their muscle mass each decade if they're not actively doing something to protect it. At the same time, body fat tends to increase, especially around the midsection, leaving many women frustrated that their old routines no longer work. Add in the hormonal shifts of menopause, and suddenly the risk of insulin resistance, osteopenia, osteoporosis, and even frailty down the road feels very real. But here's the good news: muscle is not just about looking toned. It's your currency for strength, independence, and longevity. It supports your bones, protects against falls and fractures, stabilizes blood sugar, and keeps your metabolism humming. Midlife is an opportunity to build muscle and change the trajectory of your life. My guest today is Professor Stuart Phillips, PhD, FACSM, FCAHS, one of the world's top researchers on muscle health, protein metabolism, and aging. Dr. Phillips is a Distinguished University Professor in the Department of Kinesiology and a member of the School of Medicine at McMaster University. He is a Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Skeletal Muscle Health. His work centers on the interaction of exercise/physical activity, aging, and nutrition in skeletal muscle and body composition. He is a fellow of several Academies, Societies, and Colleges, including the ACSM, but was most recently appointed as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (FRSC). Today, we are going to break down midlife myths and barriers and share how to thrive in your second act with practical and accessible strategies.

Unfortunately, many of the ways we've been taught to train, eat, and “push through” as females who love to feel, look, and run our best are working against our best health, hormones, and longevity in vibrant active living.In this episode, Louise speaks directly to driven, active women who want to feel strong, lean, energized, and confident through perimenopause and beyond. As a multi award-winning women's integrative health practitioner, top trainer, and exercise physiologist she explains why many traditional fitness, running, and nutrition approaches, including fasting, intentional or unintentional underfueling, traditional best practice dietetic recommendations, and high-volume training, can quietly damage our best health, hormones, body composition, bone health, and recovery.Drawing from her own eye-opening journey and 23 years of coaching female runners, ambitious athletes, and everyday wellness-minded fitness lovers, Louise shares why fueling to support your female physiology, managing stress, and training in hormone-aware ways are essential for long-term health and performance. She breaks down how cortisol, under-eating, fad diets, and outdated male-based training methods contribute to fatigue, injuries, belly fat, performance decline, and frustrating symptoms many women accept as “normal.”You will learn why perfection is not the goal, how to build sustainable habits, and how small daily choices can protect your best hormones, strength, performance, and longevity. This episode is a powerful reminder that you deserve to thrive, not just survive, in this phase of life.Learn & level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/Link to our FullScript where you can see curated best supplement picks & save 20%: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products.

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. Anxiety doesn't always look like worry. Sometimes it's a tummy ache before school, a freeze before a recital, a clingy bedtime routine, or a perfectionist spiral when plans change. We dig into the real-life patterns behind childhood anxiety and share clear ways to support kids with gentle homeopathy, practical routines, and a calmer daily rhythm.We start by mapping the hidden signs—sleep struggles, irritability, sensory overload, and constant reassurance-seeking—then connect the dots to root drivers like gut health, food intolerances, mineral imbalances, blood sugar swings, and screen overstimulation. From there, we walk through matching remedies to the whole child, not the label: Pulsatilla for tender clinginess, Arsenicum album for orderly perfectionism and fear of sickness, Gelsemium for performance freeze, Calcarea carbonica for caution and resistance to change, Phosphorus for empathic sensitivity, Argentum nitricum for anticipatory worry with GI upset, and Ignatia for grief and emotional conflict.Alongside remedies, we offer simple supports that actually move the needle: magnesium glycinate, predictable routines, morning sunlight, screen limits, deep pressure inputs like weighted blankets and “heavy work,” and belly breathing that kids will use. We also outline when to seek deeper help—panic attacks, school avoidance, severe sleep disruption in older kids, rapid weight loss, suicidal thoughts—and how therapy, medical care, and targeted testing can work with homeopathy rather than against it. Most of all, we reframe anxiety as a signal, not a flaw, and share compassionate steps to help kids feel safe in their bodies and homes.If this resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who needs hope, and leave a quick review to help more families find this resource.

In this episode of the Innovations and Clinical Implementation podcast recorded at LongevityFest 2025, host Dr. Lexi Gonzales discusses the future of scalable healthcare with Dr. Jeff Gladd—the Chief Medical Officer at Fullscript and a practicing integrative physician—and Ben Walters, the Head of Journeys at Fullscript. The conversation centers on Fullscript's evolution into a "Whole Person Care" engine designed to alleviate administrative burden by launching **Journeys**, a new platform that aggregates fragmented patient contexts like intake forms, historical labs, and wearables into "four clean walls" to facilitate true personalization. The guests explain how embedding AI directly into the clinical workflow allows practitioners to reduce the time spent on lab interpretation and plan creation from 45 minutes to under seven minutes, effectively allowing them to "5x" their patient capacity while utilizing tools like the PROM 10 framework to objectively validate clinical outcomes.

What if the symptoms you have been told are “just part of hormonal changes and perimenopause” are actually a misdiagnosed medical condition that's progressively getting worse without being properly addressed?In this episode of Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause, Louise Valentine, one of the world's leading integrative health practitioners and exercise physiologists, sits down with Dr. Ryan Armstrong to break down fibroids, chronic pain, and vascular issues in a way that finally makes sense. Together, they explore why heavy bleeding, chronic fatigue, knee pain, plantar fasciitis, and leg cramping are so common in active women and why they should never be ignored or normalized.Dr. Ryan explains minimally invasive treatments like uterine fibroid embolization that preserve the uterus while dramatically improving quality of life, often with faster recovery and fewer long-term risks than traditional surgery. Louise adds critical context around hormone balance, nutrition, and strength training, showing how medical care, targeted fitness and lifestyle strategies work best together.Listeners will walk away with clarity around symptoms to watch for, questions to ask their doctors, and reassurance that there are modern, effective options that do not require extreme or life-altering procedures.

What if you could support your bone health naturally, without relying on traditional medications? In this episode, Dr. Kim Millman returns to explore the powerful connection between genistein and bone health. Genistein, a natural compound found in soy, has been shown to mimic estrogen in the body, offering promising benefits for those struggling with osteoporosis and bone density loss.  Dr. Millman dives into the research behind genistein, explaining how it supports bone formation and reduces bone resorption, making it a great natural alternative for those looking to improve bone health. With solid research backing its effectiveness, genistein is a promising option for enhancing bone health naturally. Tune in for a closer look at this groundbreaking supplement.   "Most postmenopausal women have post-menopausal estrogen loss, and this (genistein) is a way to buffer against it. This is a thing that could really be part of the cornerstone of your protocol." ~ Dr. Kim Millman   In this episode: [04:47] - The role of genistein as an estrogen-like compound [07:05] - A review of bone remodelling mechanisms [09:08] - How genistein helps prevent bone loss and supports bone formation [11:16] - Genistein vs. Alendronate: head-to-head study results [28:04] - Who should not take genistein?

What if the reason running suddenly feels harder has nothing to do with your discipline or aging and everything to do with your hormones and how you support them as they change? Many find it shocking that mechanisms of perimenopause typically start as early as our 30s and this tends to be even harder on ambitious females who love to run - but the good news is, YES, we can do something about it!In this episode, Louise, a leading expert for perimenopausal active women and runners, sits down with Sheri, a lifelong runner and high-achieving professional, to share a real, honest look at navigating perimenopause without burning out or giving up the sport you love. Sheri opens up about sudden weight gain, breathing issues, dismissed symptoms, and the frustration of trying fixes that didn't work.Together, they break down what actually helped. A bit less mileage, more specific running and strength training, intentional strategic fueling, hydration, and simple yet highly effective cortisol and stress-management habits that fit into real life. Sheri explains how shifting away from “more is better” allowed her to regain energy, lose inches, improve mood, see physique changes, and hit major performance wins, including strong negative splits and new personal records in her 40s!This conversation is a reminder that perimenopause is not a dead end nor does it have to mean decline. With the right strategy, it can be a powerful reset. If you are a runner who wants to feel strong, clear-headed, and confident again without overcomplicating it, this episode offers practical hope and proof that thriving is still possible.Watch my free masterclass on Lifewave's Holistic Patches here:  https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/lifewave Learn & level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/Link to our FullScript where you can see our curated best supplement picks & save 20% off: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products.

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. Let's talk honestly about constipation—what's truly normal, what's not, and how to get back to regular without relying on harsh laxatives. We break down the real signs of constipation beyond just “skipping days,” including hard, dry stools, straining, incomplete emptying, or no urge at all, and we map those patterns to targeted homeopathic remedies that support the body rather than forcing it.We walk through practical matches: Nux vomica for tense, irritable, stressed-out “always urging, never empty” patterns; Bryonia for dryness and pain that worsen with movement; Alumina when there's no urge and sluggish bowels; Silica for the “bashful stool” that slips back in; Opium for severe sluggishness after anesthesia or medications; Calc Carb for slow metabolism and large, painful stools, especially in kids; and Lycopodium for afternoon bloating, trapped gas, and IBS-like discomfort. Along the way, we share how to choose potencies and frequency with a light, sensible touch.Beyond remedies, we dig into the everyday shifts that make a big difference: choosing the right magnesium and pairing it with Mag phos, staying truly hydrated, using warm lemon water to prime digestion, and leaning on fruit like prunes, pears, kiwi, and berries. Movement matters more than most people realize, so we offer simple ideas—from walking to gentle squats—to nudge peristalsis. Parents will find guidance for easing fear and withholding in kids with kindness and flexible strategies.We also flag when to seek medical input: blood in stool, severe pain, more than five days without a bowel movement, unexplained weight loss, or recurring episodes. Most of all, we connect the dots between elimination and whole-body health—mood, skin, energy—so you can move from coping to confident.

Most often, what helps us heal and thrive in midlife is not another supplement, medication, tracker, hack, or protocol… but instead, it's slowing down enough to let joy, clarity in how to best support our female body, and our confidence shine bright.In this deeply personal and unexpectedly powerful episode, Louise, a leading expert for perimenopausal active women and runners, shares the real story behind her “perimenopause support cat” and why it represents something much bigger than adopting a pet. She opens up about burnout as a high achieving woman and runner, nervous system overload, and the hidden cost of being a driven woman for decades. Through honest reflection, she challenges the obsession with data like HRV and the scale, reminding listeners that more numbers do not always mean better health. Also, she challenges you to reflect on what you want out of this stage of life; is it more supplements, meds, and confusion or is it clarify, calm, and confidence in knowing you have control over your longevity in vibrant active living?Louise explores how constant striving and muscling through life can keep women stuck in fight-or-flight, especially in perimenopause. She explains why simplicity, consistency, self-trust, and emotional safety matter more than ever. She also touches on identity shifts, motherhood, alignment, and what it really means to feel calm, present, and alive again.The takeaway is clear: healing and thriving in midlife often starts by choosing softness, presence, and a deep connection to yourself over perfection. You do not need to do more. You likely need to do (much) less, with intention.Join Louise in reflecting on lessons learned and unlocking the best version of your fit, strong, and vibrantly happy active life!Learn with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/Learn about adventure cats: https://www.adventurecats.org/Learn about AffoGATO Cat Cafe: https://affogatocatcafe.com/Link to our FullScript where you can see curated best supplement picks & save 20% off: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products: https://www.getkion.com/pages/maximizingEpisode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(3:04) Why a “perimenopause support cat”(5:54) HRV, data obsession, and when tracking backfires(7:38) Why high-achieving women struggle most in perimenopause(10:33) Letting go of the scale and metrics(12:16) Stepping away from comparison and social media(13:13) Identity shifts, ambition, and the hidden cost of success(17:00) Chronic stress, inflammation, and the pace of life(19:22) Choosing calm, joy, and simplicity(27:13) Motherhood, presence, and emotional repair(33:39) Redefining impact and success(41:32) Living more, optimizing lessTune in weekly to "Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause" for our simple female-specific science-based revolution.

What if the problem isn't that you're doing too little, but that you're trying to do everything at once?In this episode, Louise, one of the world's leading health, fitness, and performance experts for ambitious active women and runners, shares a powerful reframing for women navigating perimenopause, health, fat loss, and performance. Instead of chasing all goals at the same time, she introduces a four months at a time-based approach to the year, focusing on one clear priority at a time. Whether that's restoring vibrant health and hormones, losing fat, improving body composition, leveling up a fit toned physique or running stronger, the message is clear: clarity and focus creates results.Louise breaks down why fat loss should be treated as a short, intentional phase, not a lifestyle, and how staying stuck in “diet mode” quietly sabotages hormones, our metabolism, energy, and confidence. She also explains why food is more than fuel. It's information and molecules that signal a specific effect and impact on the female body. The right foods, eaten in the right state, give your body the molecules it needs to build hormones, recover from training, mitigate frustrating symptoms, improve health, and thrive through perimenopause.The episode also challenges the idea that women should slow down or stop running as they age. With the right fueling, strength training, and recovery, women can run strong well into perimenopause and beyond. The women of Breaking Through Wellness are proudly living proof of what is possible when we work with our changing female physiology and not against it!If you want a calmer nervous system, better results, and a smarter way to train and eat in 2026, this episode lays out a sustainable path forward.Learn & level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/Link to our FullScript where you can see our curated best supplement picks & save 20% off: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products: https://www.getkion.com/pages/maximizingEpisode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(4:39) Building a foundation for hormones and long-term health(6:56) The four main focus areas women cycle through(10:20) Why fat loss should be a phase, not a lifestyle(14:12) How focused support improves results and reduces stress(18:30) Food as molecules and nervous system regulation(24:47) Running strong through perimenopause and beyond(31:22) Three mindset shifts to thrive in 2026(33:48) OutroTune in weekly to "Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause" for our simple female-specific science-based revolution.

We dive into his product, Perfect Amino, which has helped countless people, including me, boost recovery after intense workouts and improve overall strength. Dr. Minkoff discusses how amino acid deficiencies can slow recovery, hinder bone regeneration, and affect muscle growth, making supplementation a simple yet powerful solution. Tune in to learn about the transformative power of amino acids and how incorporating them into your routine can make a significant difference. I've been using these products myself and have noticed remarkable benefits.   "I'm not suggesting people do this, but if you didn't want to eat and you wanted to source all of your essential amino acids through Perfect Amino, you can do it, and it works fine." ~ Dr. David Minkoff   In this episode: [00:00] - Introduction to Dr. David Minkoff [01:48] - Amino acids and how they help build stronger bones [15:56] - Practical advice for incorporating amino acids into your diet [37:10] - How soon would you notice the effect of Perfect Amino?

Welcome to a brand new year on the Beautifully Broken Podcast. In this solo episode, I'm reflecting on what mattered most in 2025 and what I'm bringing into 2026 with intention and clarity. I talk about the frustrations I've felt with the wellness world's obsession with quick-fix marketing, and how that led me back to the basics: digestion, cellular health, nervous system regulation, and real human connection.You'll hear the most impactful changes I made, like dialing back my supplements, leaning into bioavailable fats, ditching Amazon for Fullscript, and embracing "the year of the gases" with nanobubbled oxygen and Brown's gas. I share how I built a community around healing, hosted my first wellness event, and finally brought the Biological Blueprint Academy to life. This is a behind-the-scenes look at the principles that grounded me and the practices that restored me. And yes, it's all rooted in love, curiosity, and cellular integrity.  Episode Highlights[00:00] – Kicking off 2026 and calling out the marketing noise in the wellness world[02:00] – Simplifying supplements: how lab work shaped a leaner, smarter stack[03:50] – Fullscript vs Amazon: why sourcing and quality control matter[05:30] – Mago7, digestion, and the real-life wins that come from getting “regular”[06:45] – The year of gases: hydrogen, Brown's gas, oxygen baths, and what really helped my sleep[10:12] – Building therapies into daily life without stealing time[12:35] – CO₂ tolerance and breathing into cognitive clarity[14:00] – Beam Minerals and foundational mineral support[15:25] – Living the work: grounding, breathwork, cold exposure, red light, and temperature as medicine[17:51] – Genetics, mold sensitivity, and why foundational awareness is so powerful[20:14] – South Austin Wellness Project: hosting my first healing community event[22:36] – Access, advocacy, and why sharing healing tools is a mission, not a market[24:55] – New website, Substack migration, and podcast episode mini-pages[26:00] – A manifesto for 2026: depth over drip, principles over protocols[27:11] – The podcast as discovery: why this journey means everything to me Links & ResourcesSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENCathcBio https://www.catchbio.com/beautifullybroken— Code: beautifullybrokenStemRegn: https://www.stemregen.co/products/release?_ef_transaction_id=&affid=52&oid=1Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. Hemorrhoids aren't glamorous, but the path to relief doesn't have to be confusing or painful. We unpack what's actually going on—internal, external, prolapsed, and thrombosed types—and translate symptoms into a simple, calm plan you can use at home. You'll learn how to read the signs your body gives you: bleeding that points to venous weakness, stabbing “golf ball” pain without much blood, relentless itching made worse by heat and long sitting, and constipation from stress or diet that keeps flares going.We walk through a practical remedy map so you can act with confidence. Hamamelis for dark, venous bleeding and bruised soreness; Arnica for trauma and straining, especially postpartum; Aesculus hippocastanum for sharp, stabbing pain with heaviness and dryness; Sulphur for burning itch that craves cool; Nux vomica for the tense, constipated, irritable pattern; Collinsonia for pregnancy and postpartum pressure with dry stool; and Aloe for protruding hemorrhoids with a “loose” sensation and urgent morning stools. We also explain how and when to use the Banerji-style protocol pairing Hamamelis 200C with Arnica 3C, and what to adjust as symptoms improve.Supportive habits matter just as much. Hydration with trace minerals, magnesium to ease stool passage, warm Epsom sitz baths, witch hazel compresses, fiber-rich foods, and less time sitting all reduce strain and help tissues heal. We share clear guidance on red flags—heavy or persistent bleeding, severe pain, fever, or uncertainty about the source of bleeding—and why getting checked can be an empowering step, not a surrender of autonomy. Most hemorrhoids respond well to targeted remedies plus steady daily care, and with the right match you can often feel relief within a day or two.If you're ready to build skills and get personalized guidance, join the Inner Healing Circle at join.melissacrinshaw.com or book a consult at melissacrinshaw.com.

So many women in perimenopause find themselves asking the same confusing question: Should I stay on birth control, switch to menopause hormone therapy, try both, or do nothing at all? And why does it feel like everyone has a different answer?In this episode, we unpack why perimenopause can feel like a medical gray zone. Symptoms can be intense and unpredictable, hormone testing isn't always clear, and many women are told they're “too young” or “just stressed.” Add in social media opinions, antidepressants being prescribed first, and inconsistent medical guidance, and no wonder women feel lost.We break down the real science behind:• Birth control vs. Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT)• How doctors decide what to recommend• Whether you can transition directly from the pill to MHT• What realistic symptom relief looks like• How long adjustments actually take• What to do if spotting or symptoms continueWe also address the biggest myths, like:• “You can't be in perimenopause if you're on the pill.”• “You have to wait until your period stops to use hormones.”Plus, we shine a light on women who are often left out of the conversation:• Those with severe PMS or PMDD• Women in early menopause• Women after hysterectomy• Women wondering about testosterone, libido, brain fog & moodThis episode is about clarity, options, and informed choice. Perimenopause is not a failure of your body, and confusion around hormones is NOT your fault. You deserve education, thoughtful support, and individualized care, not guesswork or fear-based advice.If you're feeling overwhelmed, you're not alone. This conversation will help you understand what's really happening in your body and how to approach hormone decisions with confidence.Find Dr. Sarah here:Website: https://www.lumaniwellness.com/IG: drsarah_menopausemdStay connected to JFW:Watch on my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@jillfooswellness/videosFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jillfooswellness/Follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jillfooswellnessGrab discounts on my favorite biohacking products: https://www.jillfooswellness.com/health-productsEnjoy 20% savings and free shipping at Fullscript for your favorite supplements by leading brands:https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/jillfooswellnessSubscribe to the JFW newsletter at www.jillfooswellness.com and receive your FREE Guide on How To Create Your Menopause Health Equation Ebook.

Do you believe in "miracles" when wellness-minded runners understand simple sustainable ways to work with our changing hormones and female physiology?  After this profound success story, you will!What if the pain, exhaustion, and burnout you have been pushing through are not things you have to “power through,” but signals asking for a different approach?Louise, a multi award-winning women's integrative health practitioner and physiologist, sits down with longtime running friend Kim, a mental health practitioner, to share a deeply honest journey overcoming chronic injuries, perimenopause symptoms, nervous system overload, and healing from the inside out. Kim opens up about years of pain, hot flashes, disrupted sleep, autoimmunity, blood sugar chaos, running injuries, and feeling stuck despite doing all the “right” things.They explore how shifting focus from pushing harder to regulating the nervous system, revamping how she trains and lifts, and up-regulating natural hormone production and balance, energy and blood sugar balance using the Breaking Through Wellness whole foods fueling framework changed everything. Kim shares how less overall running mileage, more strength training, strategic speed work, better fueling, and nervous system regulation helped eliminate chronic pain, reversed prediabetes and autoimmunity labs, and restore her confidence as a runner and caring compassionate professional.The conversation introduces brain spotting, a therapy that helps process stored trauma and stress at the root level rather than just talk therapy. Through a live demo, listeners hear how this work can reduce emotional activation, improve calm, break through performance blocks, and support long-term healing.This episode is valuable for active women who love to run, feel, and look their best navigating perimenopause, burnout, stored trauma, or chronic stress who want a sustainable path forward without feeling broken or overwhelmed.Watch this episode on my website blog & grab a copy with my free nutrition guide to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/blogLearn more about Kim's psychotherapy practice & services: https://www.gillettepsychotherapy.com Find a brain spotting therapist near you: https://brainspotting.com/directory/ Link to our FullScript where you can see our curated best supplement picks & save 20% off: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products: https://www.getkion.com/pages/maximizing Episode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(8:37) Reconnecting Through Running And Community(11:54) Burnout, Injury, And Reaching A Breaking Point(13:34) Chronic Pain, Hot Flashes, And Stress(15:57) Shocking Health Improvements And Lab Results(17:13) Nervous System Regulation(22:17) Healing Through Community And SupportTune in weekly to "Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause" for our simple female-specific science-based revolution.

Topics include the importance of targeted supplementation, the rationale behind personalized dosages, best practices for starting new supplements, and managing common issues like nausea and bright yellow urine. Leyla also explains why some supplements may cause gastrointestinal discomfort and provides guidance on how to adjust dosages for optimal results. Emphasis is placed on the benefits of pharmaceutical-grade supplements available on Fullscript and the necessity of regular blood tests to fine-tune supplementation.

What if “leveling up” has nothing to do with doing more, pushing harder, or chasing the next goal?In this honest 2025 wrap-up episode, Louise, one of the world's leading health, fitness and performance experts, reflects on a year that changed her in ways she never expected. While the outside markers of success were there, running strong, looking more fit, exponential business growth and endless client wins, the real transformation happened internally. She opens up about the unexpected ways burnout can show up, perimenopause, nervous system overload, and the pressure women feel to constantly prove themselves in a loud, opinion-driven wellness world.Louise shares why she stepped back from social media, returned to science over trends, and recommitted to deeply personal, holistic work with her clients. She challenges black-and-white thinking around hormones, HRT, fitness, and health, making space for nuance, choice, and individual needs. Most importantly, she reframes success as energy, presence, health, and alignment, not hustle or scale.This episode is especially meaningful for ambitious active women navigating perimenopause, burnout, or a quiet sense that the old way of pushing just isn't working anymore. It's a reminder that slowing down can be the most powerful step forward, and that working with your body, not against it, changes everything.Check out my blog's new bonus free resource “Is it perimenopause, running burnout or BOTH?

Unfortunately, we live in a world where valuing a lifestyle that protects our best health, fitness, and vibrant athletic performance often makes other people uncomfortable. Let's talk about how to navigate this frustrating scenario!In this episode, Louise, as one of the world's leading integrative health and fitness practitioners, speaks honestly about a topic many ambitious active women quietly struggle with: fit shaming. As women move through perimenopause and menopause, prioritizing nutrition, movement, and recovery is not about vanity. It is about feeling good, staying strong, and protecting long-term vibrant health. Louise explains why old rules like calories in versus calories out no longer work, and why hormones, blood sugar regulation, understanding the new influence of stress on our female body, and female-specific fueling strategies matter more than ever.She also shares a deeply personal story of overhearing criticism from someone close to her and how that moment forced her to reflect, reset, and take action to protect her peace. Through conversations with her daughter, her Breaking Through Wellness community, and her clients, a powerful truth emerges. Choosing health can trigger resentment in others, but it can also inspire change.Listeners will walk away with simple language to respond to harsh or judgmental comments, practical holiday strategies that remove guilt around food, and a mindset shift from fear to curiosity. This episode is a reminder that taking care of yourself by eating and moving strategically and vibrantly well is NOT selfish.

We all know how important it is to stay strong and agile as we age. But how do we do that without putting too much strain on the body through heavy exercise? In today's episode, fitness expert Joan Pagano joins me to dive into an incredibly effective training tool for improving agility, balance, and bone strength.  Joan shares her expert knowledge and practical tips, and we discuss how step training is key to reducing fracture risk by strengthening bones and improving mobility. I love Joan's approach because, in addition to exercise, it prepares your body for real-world situations. The training enhances muscle strength, bone health, balance, and coordination, helping you avoid falls and navigate daily life with confidence.

In this powerful conversation, Karen Martel interviews blood sugar expert Danielle Hamilton about one of the most common yet misunderstood midlife symptoms: waking up at 2–4AM and being unable to fall back asleep.If you've been told your nighttime wakeups are “just hormones,” “just stress,” or “just insomnia,” this episode will be a game-changer.Dani breaks down: • why midlife women suddenly struggle with late-night blood sugar crashes • the difference between true hypoglycemia and metabolic hypoglycemia • how insulin, leptin, cortisol, and light exposure shape your overnight blood sugar • why keto helped you… until it didn't • how seasonal eating, fat/carb balance, and circadian biology affect sleep • the emotional + nervous system patterns common in people with hypoglycemia • why band-aids (snacks, progesterone, supplements) help temporarily but not long-term • the surprising role of histamine, stress addiction, and mitochondrial overload • what to do during the day to fix what's happening at nightThis is one of the most comprehensive, compassionate explanations you will ever hear about nighttime wakeups, and why the “eat a snack before bed” advice is only a short-term fix.Want to Join the next Cohort of Blood Sugar Mastery?
