Show Notes:In this episode of 'Own Your Pleasure', Whitni Miller and her guest, Dr. Michelle Gordon, discuss the complexities of hormonal changes in women, particularly during perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Gordon emphasizes the importance of understanding how weight impacts hormonal health and the misconceptions surrounding weight loss. The discussion also covers sexual health, the role of various hormones, and the significance of finding a supportive healthcare provider who listens to women's concerns. Dr. Michelle Gordon is Board Certified in Obesity Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, and General Surgery and is a Telehealth Innovator. After building and running a multi-million dollar surgical practice, she shifted her focus from surgery to weight management, hormone health, and longevity through high-impact telehealth for lesbian midlife women. She brings advanced, personalized care straight to you —without gatekeeping, delay, or the one-size-fits-all approach of traditional systems. Her background in surgery gives her a sharp clinical lens in obesity and lifestyle medicine. She's seen how strategic, non-surgical interventions can reverse complex metabolic disease. Her experience drives the results she delivers today, through evidence-based care that respects your time, autonomy, and goals. She uses telehealth to deliver high-quality, personalized care. This isn't a quick prescription model. She takes the time to understand each patient's goals, history, and challenges to create treatment plans that are safe, effective, and built for long-term success. Her mission is simple. She gives you clear, evidence-based guidance and real support throughout your health journey. You deserve more than a rushed visit or generic advice. She takes the time to understand what's actually going on so you can make lasting, meaningful changes together. You are never just a number. She works closely with you so you feel seen, heard, and respected from start to finish. With a foundation in clinical experience and systems thinking, she focuses on what works. She uses tools that make personalized medicine more accessible without compromising quality. This isn't about hype or trends. It's about real care, delivered with intention, one patient at a time.

What if the explosion of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy is not a weight loss revolution, but rather a warning sign that something in our metabolic health is fundamentally broken? Today, we take a deep dive into the lesser-known satiety hormones, such as CCK and PYY, exploring how dysfunction in these hormones could be silently accelerating your aging and sabotaging your health span. I'm excited to welcome Ashley Koff, a registered dietitian with more than 25 years of experience in functional and integrative nutrition, for a two-part series. In Part 1 today, we break down why your satiety hormones may be underperforming, how this links to aging and longevity, and simple strategies you can start using today to support metabolic health naturally. How to support your weight-health hormones: Focus on supporting your digestion first, rather than jumping straight into weight loss or metabolic fixes Ensure you're consuming enough protein and amino acids to support peptide hormone production Reduce gut irritants like alcohol, ultra-processed ingredients, and unnecessary fasting Nourish your body consistently, especially during times of hormonal change, instead of restricting View digestive symptoms as signs of dysfunction instead of problems to push through or ignore Bio: Ashley Koff Ashley Koff is a registered dietician and who is the founder of the Better Nutrition Program (BNP), the nutrition course director for UC Irvine's Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute's Integrative and Functional Medicine Fellowship, and a faculty member at the Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy (IFNA), where she teaches “An Integrative and Functional Nutrition Approach to Obesity and Weight Management.”  She is also the author of the upcoming book Your Best Shot (HarperOne, Jan. 6, 2026). A practitioner for more than 25 years, Koff is leading a transformative movement in personalized nutrition, turning “better, not perfect” choices into practical, sustainable strategies that deliver real health outcomes. Through patient stories and personal experience, she shows that optimal health is not just possible — it's essential to living your fullest life. Koff has been recognized as one of CNN's Top 100 Health Makers, featured in InStyle as “Hollywood's Leading Dietitian,” and selected as Westin's global nutrition ambassador.  In this episode: How separating weight from health leads to unhealthy behavior and long-term metabolic dysfunction Why a balanced approach is essential when using GLP-1 agonists and other interventions The importance of viewing digestive distress as an early warning sign, not a side effect to ignore How short-term diet “wins” can feel hopeful, yet fail to solve the underlying issue How metabolic health data points to a larger issue than most people realize The role weight-regulating hormones play beyond hunger and blood sugar Why supporting your weight health is foundational to your longevity  Links and Resources: Guest Social Media Links: Ashley Koff on Instagram  The Better Nutrition Program  Your Best Shot Relative Links for This Show:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Use Code FIBER to get 10% off GLP-1 Fiber ⁠⁠⁠⁠Use code CREATINE to get 10% off Creatine Follow Your Longevity Blueprint  On Instagram| Facebook| Twitter| YouTube | LinkedIn Get your copy of the Your Longevity Blueprint book and claim your bonuses here Find Dr. Stephanie Gray and Your Longevity Blueprint online   Follow Dr. Stephanie Gray  On Facebook| Instagram| Youtube | Twitter | LinkedIn Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic Podcast production by Team Podcast

I am delighted to have Dr. Austin Lake with me for a two-part series. In Part 1, we discussed women's health, exploring the importance of informed consent around birth control and of finding the root cause of why it was prescribed for you. Today, in Part 2, we cover many topics, including microplastics, praying before meals, deep breathing, supplements, faith, and nicotine. If you have not done so already, please listen to Part 1 first. Ways to regulate your nervous system: Shift into slow, diaphragmatic breathing when your body feels tense or overstimulated Make mealtimes a seated, unhurried ritual instead of something done on the move Reinforce your nervous system balance with proper hydration, minerals, and sufficient magnesium Build small moments of gratitude and prayer into your daily routine Bio: Dr. Austin Lake Dr. Austin Lake is a functional medicine provider, health educator, and founder of Wholly Health, a transformative health program that helps individuals restore energy, balance hormones, and reclaim health using holistic, evidence-based strategies.  He holds a doctorate in physiotherapy, a bachelor's degree in exercise physiology, and board certification in functional medicine.  He has guided thousands of clients through challenges like chronic fatigue, weight struggles, autoimmune disorders, thyroid imbalances, and metabolic dysfunction—addressing the true root causes rather than masking symptoms with pharmaceuticals or medical procedures.  His passion for holistic health was born out of personal experience: watching his brother battle leukemia, his father suffer multiple heart attacks, and his mother live with autoimmune disease. These trials forged a mission to uncover why people get sick—and how to truly heal.  Grounded in biblical principles, Dr. Lake's approach integrates faith, science, and natural healing. He empowers individuals to break free from the cycle of prescription dependency and to steward their health with intention. With a following of about 1.5 million across social media platforms, his work reaches a global audience with practical insights, myth-busting education, and faith-driven encouragement.  When not working with clients or educating online, Dr. Lake enjoys time with his wife, Carlie, and their four children, where they live a simple, natural life centered around faith, family, and wellness. He is also a passionate advocate for homeschooling and equipping the next generation for healthy, purpose-filled lives. His mission is simple: to help people reclaim their health, their vitality, and their God-given potential—one life at a time. In this episode: The importance of filtering your water at home Tips for regulating the nervous system Why women on birth control must follow a healthy diet, take quality supplements, and be intentional with their daily routines and rhythms Some advice for women trying to conceive Why antioxidants are essential for women who want to conceive What are the benefits of nicotine?

I am delighted to have Dr. Austin Lake with me for a two-part series. In Part 1 today, we dive into women's health, exploring the importance of informed consent around birth control and of finding the root cause of why it was prescribed for you. How to avoid the methylation problems with long-term birth-control use: • Avoid folic acid, and take active folate to counter folate loss  • Maintain adequate B6 to prevent methylation from stalling • If you have MTHFR, take active folate instead of synthetic folic acid to support proper methylation Bio: Dr. Austin Lake Dr. Austin Lake is a functional medicine provider, health educator, and founder of Wholly Health, a transformative health program that helps individuals restore energy, balance hormones, and reclaim health using holistic, evidence-based strategies.  He holds a doctorate in physiotherapy, a bachelor's degree in exercise physiology, and board certification in functional medicine.  He has guided thousands of clients through challenges like chronic fatigue, weight struggles, autoimmune disorders, thyroid imbalances, and metabolic dysfunction—addressing the true root causes rather than masking symptoms with pharmaceuticals or medical procedures.  His passion for holistic health was born out of personal experience: watching his brother battle leukemia, his father suffer multiple heart attacks, and his mother live with autoimmune disease.

Eight months ago, we followed along as Prospect Medical shuttered Crozer Health. In this episode, as promised, several of the doctors, nurses, medical assistants, elected officials and public servants we spoke to initially tell us how they have fared since. A few themes emerged: the unexpected domino effects when a hospital closes, the importance of community, trust, and transparency, the mismatch between healthcare executives in pursuit of profit and medical professionals in pursuit of public service (and the moral injury that results), and their relentless commitment to and hope for the community they served.  

De-Cult Natural Health (Part 2) With Guest Dagmar Stansova!Conventional medicine is failing louder than ever — and when people are scared, sick, and searching for answers, natural health cults rush in to fill the void.In Episode 10 of Beth of Fresh Air, With Guest Dagmar Stansova joining again, we continue dismantling the cult dynamics embedded in modern natural health culture by walking through a wide range of popular diets — highlighting where they do have merit, why they ultimately fail, and how they quietly hijack people's health, intuition, and autonomy.This episode isn't about attacking individuals. It's about exposing rigid belief systems, nutritional absolutism, and identity-based eating that keep people stuck while promising salvation.What We Cover in This EpisodeWe examine the good intentions, blind spots, and cult mechanics behind the following diets and protocols:Body Ecology Diet (Donna Gates) – anti-candida, fermented foods, food combiningFit for Life Diet (Harvey & Marilyn Diamond) – fruit-based mornings, “live” foodsThe Zone Diet (Barry Sears) – macro ratios & omega-3 focusBlood Type Diet (Peter D'Adamo) – lectin avoidance based on ancestryGenefit Nutrition – blindfolded raw eating guided by smellRaw Primal Diet (Aajonus Vonderplanitz) – raw animal foods & detox ideology80/10/10 Diet (Douglas Graham) – high-carb raw vegan tissue breakdownHippocrates Institute Diet (Ann Wigmore / Brian Clement) – raw vegan & wheatgrassFruitarianismMacrobiotic Diet (Michio Kushi) – yin/yang balance & seasonal eatingSpecific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) – legal/illegal foods for gut conditionsLow Glycemic Index DietAnti-Parasite Diet – herbs, antimicrobials & fear-based protocolsSuperfoods Diet (David Wolfe) – exotic supplements & nutritional mysticismGreen Smoothie Revolution (Victoria Boutenko) – gut damage via oxalates & carotenoidsHealer's Protocol (Darko Velcek) – plasma water & raw animal focusUrine Therapy (Ayurvedic offshoots)Epi-Paleo Diet (Jack Kruse) – seafood-heavy biohacking originsThe Plant Paradox (Dr. Gundry) – lectin fear frameworkHigh-Fat Carnivore (Paul Saladino)Muscle Meat & Water Carnivore (Dr. Chaffee)Low Oxalate Diet (Sally Norton) – hidden vitamin toxicity tradeoffsLow Histamine DietStick of Butter a Day Diet – cortisol myths & hormone claimsRaw Milk CureAnti-Inflammatory DietLow Deuterium Diet – mitochondrial theory & ketogenic overlapCore Themes ExploredWhy suppression masquerades as healingHow detox narratives keep people trapped in cycles of breakdownThe difference between practical nutrition and ideological dietsHow cult thinking sneaks into “natural” spaces just as easily as pharmaceutical onesThis episode is for anyone who's tried everything, followed all the rules, and still feels worse — or is quietly afraid to stop.Explore Further with Beth

This series, "Screentime and Your Health," highlights the health risks of overusing electronic devices. I think I was previously unaware of the dangers involved. But I'm starting to get the picture. In the last episode, we discussed how excessive screen time can hinder our ability to lead an active life by making us more sedentary and decreasing our motivation to be physically active. This is part two of the series, focusing on the topic of "Screens vs. Sleep." Read the full post at http://RunningAFEVER.com/433

Show Notes:In this episode of 'Own Your Pleasure', Whitni Miller and her guest, Dr. Michelle Gordon, discuss the complexities of menopause, hormonal changes, and the healthcare system's treatment of women's health issues. Dr. Gordon emphasizes the importance of finding a doctor who listens, the impact of the Women's Health Initiative on hormone therapy, and the cultural dismissal of women's health concerns. Dr. Gordon advocates for a holistic approach to treatment, recognizing obesity as a disease and the need for hormone optimization to improve quality of life. The discussion also touches on the importance of self-advocacy and the challenges women face in the medical system. Dr. Michelle Gordon is Board Certified in Obesity Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, and General Surgery and is a Telehealth Innovator.

What if the morning “I feel sick” isn't a dodge but anxiety talking through the body? We invited two seasoned clinicians to unpack why elementary struggles often snowball in middle school, how neurological growth and puberty raise the stakes and what parents and educators can do to steady kids when the school day feels impossible. From the jump, we map the path from early reading gaps and executive function challenges to avoidance, nurse visits, and “I can't go” battles then show how small, consistent supports flip the script.Together, we break down clear signs of distress at home and in class, and we share practical tools kids can use without fanfare: diaphragmatic breathing, muscle relaxation, grounding, and a surprising ally, cold water, which can reset the nervous system. We talk about the cafeteria problem, test panic and the power of a quick hallway break paired with a plan. You'll hear how to collaborate with school counselors and teachers even if your child doesn't have an IEP or 504, plus how to decide when school-based help isn't enough and it's time to bring in a community clinician.We also face the forces driving anxiety up: phones, group chats, and the way relational aggression now travels overnight; pandemic-era gaps that left students academically and socially off-balance; and the upside of better awareness and diagnosis. We share ways to monitor content early, build trust toward teen autonomy, protect sleep with real screen limits, and set family “no-cell” windows that everyone follows.

The school day doesn't start at the first bell, it starts the night before, inside group chats where one message can snowball into a full day of distraction. We sat down with counselors from Lynchburg City Schools to unpack what kids are carrying into class: anxiety amplified by social media, conflicts that live on through phones and the quiet ways embarrassment and fear shape learning. Together, we chart a realistic path through the noise with a focus on practical supports, not panic.Technology is both helper and hazard in schools. Chromebooks streamline learning and accountability, yet blur lines between schoolwork and entertainment. Off-and-away policies help, but counselors explain how last night's chat still enters the room, fueling late nights, missed breakfasts and frayed attention. The through line is steady anxiety, intensified by a world where small mistakes can travel far and live online.You'll hear candid guidance for parents: search the phone, learn the apps and lean in during middle school rather than stepping back. We also open the door on safety partnerships, how School Resource Officers build trust and join threat assessments and how counselors coordinate crisis evaluations with hospitals, therapists and community behavioral health when self‑harm risk appears. Reentry plans, discharge notes and communication help students regain footing after a hospital stay, with academics following health.If you're a parent, educator, or community partner, this conversation offers grounded strategies to share the load kids are carrying clear boundaries, consistent check‑ins and a team approach that keeps dignity at the center. Listen, share with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to help more families find practical support.For more content from Centra Health check us out on the following channels.YouTubeFacebookInstagramTwitter
