Have you ever felt like you've tried every diet, every meal plan, and every strategy, yet you still struggle with food, body image, or find yourself starting over every Monday? What if the breakthrough you're looking for isn't another nutrition plan, but a deeper connection with God? In today's episode, we're talking about how to invite God into your health journey through prayer. Because prayer doesn't just have the power to transform your habits—it has the power to transform your heart. So often, we focus on changing our behaviors while overlooking the deeper struggles underneath them. But lasting freedom isn't found in more willpower or self-control alone. It's found in daily dependence on the One who created you, knows you completely, and cares about every area of your life—including your health. My prayer is that today's conversation encourages you to stop carrying this burden on your own and start inviting God into the process. And if you're looking for additional support and accountability, I'd love to walk alongside you. I offer one-on-one coaching for women who are ready to break free from the cycle of dieting and create a healthier relationship with food and their bodies. You can email me at taraj@dietditching.com to learn more. Also, be sure to join our Facebook community, Lose Weight, Live Free, where you'll find encouragement, practical tips, and support from other women on a similar journey.

We talk about hearing God's voice, growing closer to Him in busy seasons of motherhood, seeing yourself the way God sees you, and what it looks like to invite Him into every area of your life, including your health. If you've ever felt distant from God, struggled with body image, or wondered where to start in building a deeper relationship with Him, this conversation is for you. Fr. Canice McMullen is originally from State College, PA.  After graduating from Penn State with a degree in accounting he felt a call to the priesthood.  As a priest he has served in various ministries such as campus ministry at the college and high school level as well as parish work.  He is currently assigned to St. John Gualbert Cathedral in the diocese of Altoona Johnstown  Connect with Fr.

The obstacles that keep showing up in a health journey are rarely as immovable as they feel from a distance.   Uncomfortable to face sometimes.   Worth avoiding sometimes.   But almost never as hard as the version being built up in your head.   Getting curious about what an obstacle is pointing at changes the relationship with it entirely.   The path forward tends to open up the moment you stop circling and start facing what has been waiting there.

Addiction affects millions of people, yet it remains one of the most misunderstood and stigmatized medical conditions. This week on SHE MD, Mary Alice Haney sits down with Dr. Sarah Wakeman, a nationally recognized addiction medicine specialist, Harvard Medical School faculty member, and leading advocate for evidence-based addiction treatment.Dr. Wakeman shares how her experiences treating patients revealed a troubling reality: people struggling with addiction are often treated very differently than those with other chronic illnesses. Together, they explore why addiction is a medical condition, not a moral failing, and what needs to change in healthcare, policy, and public perception.The conversation also dives into alcohol use, women's unique health risks, pregnancy, breast cancer, and the growing body of research on how alcohol impacts long-term health. This episode is an eye-opening discussion about stigma, recovery, compassion, and the power of treating addiction with science instead of judgment.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PMOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

She is double board-certified in Internal Medicine and Addiction Medicine and serves as the Program Director of the Massachusetts General Hospital Addiction Medicine Fellowship.Throughout her career, Dr. Wakeman has been at the forefront of transforming how substance use disorders are treated, advocating for evidence-based, compassionate care that replaces stigma with science. She has helped develop innovative treatment programs, mentored the next generation of addiction medicine specialists, and worked to expand access to life-saving care for patients across the healthcare system.As a physician, educator, and national thought leader, Dr. Wakeman is passionate about changing the conversation around addiction; helping people understand that substance use disorder is a medical condition, not a moral failing, and that recovery is possible with the right support and treatment.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this deeply personal episode of SHE MD, co-host Mary Alice Haney sits down with her lifelong best friend, Stacey Hunt, to share the story of how listening to the podcast led Stacey to advocate for herself, and ultimately, catch her breast cancer early enough to save her life.After hearing the Olivia Munn episode and learning about lifetime breast cancer risk assessments, dense breast tissue, and the importance of MRIs for high-risk women, Stacey decided to take action. Despite having a recent “clear” mammogram and no symptoms, she pushed for additional testing after learning her lifetime risk score was 28%. That MRI revealed a tiny invasive lobular breast cancer hidden beneath extremely dense breast tissue; something her mammogram missed entirely.Together, Stacey, Mary Alice, and Thais Aliabadi have an emotional and eye-opening conversation about self-advocacy, early detection, dense breasts, genetic testing, the realities of a breast cancer diagnosis, treatment decisions, reconstruction options, menopause after cancer, and the emotional toll that comes with survivorship. This episode is both a powerful reminder that early detection saves lives and a call for every woman to know her lifetime risk of breast cancer.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PCOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

Inspired by the podcast's conversations around breast cancer risk assessments and early detection, Stacey advocated for additional screening despite having a recent negative mammogram and no symptoms. Her persistence led to the discovery of an early-stage invasive lobular breast cancer hidden beneath extremely dense breast tissue; a diagnosis that may have otherwise gone undetected for years.In this powerful episode, Stacey shares her deeply personal journey through diagnosis, self-advocacy, treatment, and recovery, offering an inspiring reminder of the importance of knowing your risk, trusting your instincts, and speaking up for your health.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Following the overwhelming response to the Hailey Bieber episode, SHE MD sits down with Sera Prognostics CEO Zhenya Lindgardt and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Tiffany Inglis for a powerful, science-backed conversation about preterm birth, maternal health, and the pregnancy blood test most women, and most doctors, have never heard of. They unpack how a simple test taken between 18 and 20 weeks can predict and help prevent preterm birth in women who would otherwise be considered "low risk."This conversation goes deep into the science behind the PreTRM test and the two proteins it measures. The doctors explain why other current screening methods miss nearly 80% of women who will go on to deliver prematurely, and how the preTRM® test is changing maternal care from reactive to preventive. They break down the role inflammation and placental health play in pregnancy, and how the preventive protocol used in the PRIME study helped reduce early preterm births by 56%. They also dive into the emotional, physical, and financial toll of NICU stays, disparities in maternal healthcare, and why women need better access to personalized pregnancy care.This episode is ultimately about agency: knowing your individual risk, advocating for the care you deserve, and shifting maternal medicine from reactive to preventive. Whether you're pregnant, planning to be, or supporting someone who is, this conversation delivers the science, the resources, and the mindset shift that could change the trajectory of a pregnancy and the lives that depend on it.Learn more here: https://pretrm.com/?utm_source=shemd&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=founders_ep Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PCOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

EASE OS™: The Human Skills · Episode 2 Most people are navigating their health by filling the gaps between disciplines without realizing that is what they are doing. The acupuncture, the functional medicine, the physical therapy, the nutrition protocol — each one skilled, none of them in conversation with each other. And the burden of figuring out how it all connects has been placed quietly on you. In this episode Dr. Connie names the invisible labor of fragmented care, explains why it produces consistently incomplete results at the physiological level, and shares the story of a patient who resolved four years of chronic pain in a month — not because any individual treatment was better, but because the sequence was finally right. What you will take away: • Why skilled individual practitioners consistently produce partial results when working in isolation • How the burden of integration was transferred silently to the patient  • What fragmented care actually does to the body physiologically • The story of a four-year pain journey resolved in one month through sequence • The map exercise — seeing your own fragmented care picture clearly for the first time • The closing question to carry into the week Apply for the Clinical Diagnostic Intensive — link below ↓ https://www.drconniecheung.com/Clinical-Diagnostic-Intensive Four spots this month.

She's 70 years old, holds a PhD she earned in her late 60s, and looks like she cracked the code on aging. But Dr. Catharine Arnston isn't selling a beauty secret she's sharing 17 years of research into two of the most scientifically documented superfoods on Earth: spirulina and chlorella.In this episode of SHE MD, Mary Alice Haney and Dr. Aliabadi sit down with Dr. Catharine Arnston, Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits, for one of the most eye-opening conversations we've had on this show. It started with her sister's breast cancer diagnosis and a pivot away from a 25-year corporate career. What she found in the research changed everything she thought she knew about energy, brain health, aging, and women's bodies.This isn't wellness fluff. There are over 100,000 peer-reviewed studies on these two algae. NASA has been feeding them to astronauts for 50 years. The United Nations endorsed spirulina as the answer to world hunger. And yet most women in the Western world have never heard of them.Learn More Here: https://energybits.com/discount/SHEMD?rfsn=9096638.6abd9cc1&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=9096638.6abd9cc1What You'll LearnWhy algae was the first life on Earth and why that matters for your bodyThe difference between macroalgae (seaweed, kelp) and microalgae (spirulina, chlorella)How spirulina creates cellular energy without the crash of caffeine or sugarWhat phycocyanin is and how this blue pigment behaves differently in healthy versus unhealthy cellsWhy mitochondria decline with age and how to protect them with nutritionThe role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and why your body stops making it after age 30Why menopause damages women's mitochondria twice as fast as men'sHow chlorella detoxes heavy metals, glyphosate, aluminum, and other environmental toxinsWhy chlorella is essential for anyone on a GLP-1 or any weight loss journeyHow chlorella naturally supports serotonin, melatonin, sleep, and bowel motilityThe right dosage of each algae by age, condition, and time of dayWhy high heat in processing kills the benefits of most algae on the marketThe truth about excess stored iron, inflammation, and "rusting from the inside" after menopauseHow ENERGYbits are sourced in Taiwan in triple-filtered mountain spring waterHow to use algae for weight loss, sleep, brain fog, skin health, and longevityKey Timestamps00:00 Welcome Dr. Catharine Arnston & Why Algae Matters00:25 Catharine's Sister, Cancer, and the Origin of ENERGYbits01:49 Plant-Based Nutrition and the Otto Warburg Discovery02:46 Why People Don't Eat Vegetables (and What to Do About It)03:28 Why No One Knows About Algae Despite 100,000 Studies04:19 Why NASA Feeds Algae to Astronauts04:43 Algae Is Food, Not a Supplement06:45 "Aging Is Natural, Declining Is Not"07:08 Macroalgae vs. Microalgae Explained08:24 Why Lake & Ocean Algae Can Be Toxic09:27 Spirulina: Energy at the Cellular Level10:22 Why Algae Protein Beats Animal Protein10:49 Dosage 101: When and How Much to Take12:13 Phycocyanin: The Blue Pigment That Targets Unhealthy Cells14:34 The Electron Transport Chain & ATP (The "Ferrari" Analogy)15:48 Aging, Mitochondria & Cellular Decline16:13 Superoxide Dismutase (SOD): The Hidden Antioxidant17:53 Why Menopause Hits Women's Mitochondria Twice as Hard19:38 Brain Fog, Depression & Damaged Mitochondria20:37 Mary Alice's Family History & The Case for Prevention22:10 How Fast You'll Feel It & Mitochondrial DNA Regeneration23:16 Anti-Angiogenesis & Stopping Tumor Blood Supply24:10 Chlorella: The Body's Tow Truck for Toxins27:45 Chlorophyll, Hemoglobin & Building Your Blood28:35 Glutathione, Liver Health & Tryptophan29:03 Chlorella, Serotonin & Mood29:34 Chlorella for Bowel Motility30:25 The Athlete Protocol (NHL & NFL Dosing)31:12 Sleep, Melatonin & Why Chlorella Works at Night32:54 Chlorella for Chemotherapy Recovery36:01 Pricing, Daily Cost & the Discount Code36:45 Important: Talk to Your Oncologist Before Combining38:17 Algae for Weight Loss & GLP-1 Support40:32 Safety, Sourcing & Why ENERGYbits Are Grown in Taiwan42:20 Catharine's Trip to Taiwan & Why It Matters43:31 Excess Iron, Menopause & "Rusting From the Inside"46:07 Final Thoughts & Why Consistency Wins47:32 Absorption, Exosomes & Why Algae Works So Fast48:39 Dosage for Kids, Husbands & Pets49:41 Beauty Bits: The Pink Spirulina for Skin & Hair51:07 Mary Alice Starts Her Algae JourneyKey TakeawaysAging is natural, declining is notAlgae is food, not a supplement, so your body recognizes and absorbs it instantlySpirulina nourishes & energizes, chlorella detoxes & repairsYou need both algaes for different reasons, especially after 40Most brain issues trace back to damaged mitochondriaWomen lose antioxidant and hormone protection twice as fast as men in menopauseThe right dosage matters more than the right ingredientConsistency beats intensity, your body is not a light switchMost supplements are artificial, your body wastes up to 90% of themToxins live in your fat, so detoxing is part of any weight loss journeyThe science exists, the connection between scientists and women is what's missingMother Nature provided answers long before pharmaceutical companies didWhat you can't see at the cellular level is often what's hurting you mostGuest BioDr. Catharine Arnston is the founder and Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits, the medical-grade algae company she launched 17 years ago after pivoting from a 25-year international corporate career to research plant-based nutrition for her sister, who had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Her research led her to spirulina and chlorella, two microalgae backed by more than 100,000 scientific studies, and to a mission of bringing clean, hand-sourced algae nutrition to women, families, and elite athletes around the world. Catharine earned her health coaching certificate from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and went on to complete her PhD in her late 60s, becoming one of the most credentialed and outspoken advocates for algae nutrition in the world. Her upcoming book, Love Your Health to Bits with Algae, set for an October release, distills 17 years of research into accessible, "science with sarcasm" guidance for the everyday reader. Catharine lives by the philosophy that "aging is natural, declining is not" and is on a mission to make algae as common in the Western world as it has been in Asia for the past 60 years.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you're constantly bloated, tired, or struggling with hormone imbalances, your gut might be the missing piece. In this episode of SHE MD, we sit down with double board-certified physician Dr. Amy Shah to break down the powerful connection between gut health, hormones, metabolism, and brain function, and why so many women are overlooking it. From IBS and SIBO to PCOS and endometriosis, this conversation reveals how inflammation and gut imbalance can silently drive so many common symptoms.Dr. Shah shares her simple, science-backed “30-30-3” framework (30g of protein at your first meal, 30g of fiber daily, and 3 probiotic foods) to help you rebuild your microbiome and feel better fast. We also dive into the truth about probiotics, why fiber is essential (and why most people aren't getting enough), and how everyday habits like sleep, sunlight, and movement can dramatically improve your gut health.Plus, we cover magnesium for stress and sleep, the role of antibiotics, how to approach SIBO and elimination diets, and the easiest (and most overlooked) ways to support your brain and body long-term.
