Perimenopause, Menopause and Post Menopause - whatever stage you are at you can begin your best chapter yet and not let the big ‘M' take over.My guest in this episode is Barb Watson from Barb's Bod Squad. As a body builder, Barb thought she had cracked the code of dealing with Menopause but she was wrong.

After years managing corporate business transformations, I left that world to follow my true passion: helping women transform their health and confidence.Over a decade ago, menopause nearly broke me. I endured 32 unrecognised symptoms—crippling brain fog, relentless hot flushes, anxiety, unexpected weight gain and exhaustion. I was misdiagnosed repeatedly and sent on a frustrating and expensive wild goose chase that drained me emotionally and financially. I felt confused, overwhelmed, and completely alone.But from that chaos, I found clarity and purpose. I turned my struggle into strength and built a program to support women just like me. My 4-week program is designed to help women lose weight, keep it off, and feel like themselves again—without the fads, fluff, or false promises.I also created the FREE Menopause Assistant—a smart, AI-powered tool built specifically for Australian women. It's grounded in science, follows national menopause guidelines, and only includes TGA-approved products. It's designed to cut through confusion and give women the clarity and confidence they deserve.At Barb's Bod Squad, it's about real women, real solutions, and real results.

The Robyn Engelson Podcast   Ever wish you had a wellness mentor with over decades of experience whispering million dollar health tips in your ear? That's exactly what you will get each week when you tune into The Robyn Engelson Podcast. I'm your host–a sought after autoimmune and wellness expert, corporate drop-out turned serial entrepreneur, and lifestyle transformer. Each week, I'll be bringing you inspiring guests, insights, and mindset tools to empower you to be energized, compress time, and start living instead of existing.    Episode Title:  Tired. Foggy. Gaining weight. But your labs are “normal”? Host: Robyn Engelson Guest: Dr. Doriana Parkin Episode Summary: In this enlightening episode, Robyn engages in a conversation with Dr. Doriana Parkin, a family doctor trained in traditional western medicine. Together, we delve into the complex connection between thyroid health, gut function, and the deep impact of emotional trauma. Dr. Parkin uncovers how even when lab results appear "normal," many patients continue to suffer from symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, and chronic pain. The conversation explores how emotional well-being, early life stress, and unresolved trauma can play a pivotal role in disrupting physical health, particularly the thyroid and gut systems. Dr. Parkin shares her approach to compassionate, trauma-informed care and explains why validating a patient's personal story is just as crucial as analyzing lab reports. This episode offers profound insights into how to listen to your body and advocate for your own health. You'll learn: How emotional trauma, especially childhood stress, can impact thyroid health and gut function, leading to chronic health issues. The significance of mind-body connection in understanding symptoms that lab tests often fail to explain. Why patients with normal lab results can still experience debilitating symptoms, and how emotional history is key to finding the root cause. The crucial role of compassionate, trauma-informed care in healing chronic illnesses. How to trust your body's signals and seek the right kind of medical support when you feel dismissed. Memorable Quotes: ““Thyroid health isn't just about the numbers—it's about understanding the emotional story behind those numbers.” “Your symptoms may not show up in a test, but that doesn't mean they're not real or treatable.” “Compassionate care listens to both the body and the story it tells.” “The gut and thyroid are deeply connected; if one is off, it can disrupt the other.” “You're your own advocate—trust your instincts and find a provider who respects your health journey.”   Resources & Mentions: Dr. Doriana Parkin's approach to thyroid and gut health. Research on the connection between gut health, thyroid function, and autoimmune diseases. Integrative medicine approaches to diagnosing beyond conventional lab work. Clinics and practices focused on compassionate and integrative care for thyroid health.   Actionable Steps for Listeners: Trust Your Symptoms: If your body is telling you something isn't right—even when tests come back "fine"—trust that feeling. Your symptoms are valid and deserve attention. Prioritize Emotional Healing: Consider how past emotional trauma may be affecting your physical health. Seek care that addresses both the mind and body. Focus on Gut Health: Your gut plays a significant role in thyroid health. Consult with a professional who can help balance your gut and thyroid together. Seek Compassionate Care: Don't settle for healthcare that dismisses your concerns. Advocate for a provider who listens and integrates emotional and physical care. Final Thought: True healing begins when you're fully seen and heard. When patients feel understood and their health concerns are validated—not dismissed—they are empowered to begin the journey toward recovery. Compassionate care isn't just a luxury, it's essential for true healing. If you feel your symptoms are ignored, it's time to find a healthcare provider who understands your unique story and addresses both your emotional and physical health needs.   What listeners have to say: “Dr. Parkin's approach was a breath of fresh air. She truly listened and validated my experiences, which made me feel understood for the first time. This episode opened my eyes to the crucial link between emotions and physical health. I now feel empowered to take control of my healing journey.”   Loved this episode? If you found value in this conversation, don't forget to leave a review!

To have no time for yourself, be too busy to fit exercise into your day when juggling work, extracurricular activities, cooking, and taking care of family.  She struggled with weight and body issues as a teen, dieting and hating herself for how she looked the entire time until I realized that she needed to eat in a way that wasn't overly restrictive, and that her self worth wasn't related to her weight. For 15 years in the medical field, she counselled patients on how to make healthy decisions, and now she is focused on helping as many busy women as possible take back control of their lives and health. Her goal is to give you the empowerment you've been lacking so you feel confident making food choices, figuring out how to easily incorporate fitness and self-care into your daily life.   Connect with Robyn: Book Robyn to speak Get Robyn's #1 best selling book, Exhausted To Energized - 90 Days To Your Best Self  Get Robyn's free video  Sign up for Robyn's personal letter  View Robyn's website Follow Robyn on LinkedIn Robyn's Facebook Watch Robyn on Instagram

Hi friends! I'm back with another q&a

Tried everything to lose weight and nothing's working? It's not your fault. According to geneticist Giles Yeo, your body is hardwired to hold onto fat—especially as you age. Yeo breaks down why your metabolism slows, how your genes shape your hunger, and why exercise isn't the fat-loss fix you think it is. If you've been eating better, moving more, and still not seeing results… this is the science-backed reality check you've been waiting for.

Have you ever felt off—like your body just isn't cooperating no matter what you do?Maybe your sleep is a mess, your mood is unpredictable, your weight won't budge, or anxiety sneaks up on you for no reason. If you've been on birth control or hormone therapy, your progesterone might be in the danger zone—and no one is talking about it.In this episode, I open up about my personal experience with low progesterone and the shocking truth about how progestin (the synthetic form used in birth control and HRT) can actually shut down your body's natural progesterone production. I'll break down:✅ What progesterone actually does—and why it's your body's calming, fat-loss, and sleep-supporting powerhouse✅ How progestin is NOT the same as progesterone (and why this difference matters for your hormones, metabolism, and mood)✅ The warning signs of low progesterone—from anxiety to stubborn weight gain, poor sleep, and irregular cycles✅ How to naturally improve progesterone levels—without synthetic hormones wreaking havoc on your body✅ What I personally experienced—and what I wish I knew sooner about the impact of synthetic hormones.If you've ever been told that hormonal symptoms are “just part of being a woman,” it's time to dig deeper. You can support your hormones, reclaim your energy, and feel like yourself again—without being stuck in the cycle of synthetic hormones that leave you depleted.

It's entirely possible to do everything “right” with fitness and nutrition and still see the scale move in the direction you don't want. But is it really even a problem?
