Zionist vulture capitalist Paul Singer, Trump's mega-Jewish donor, just hijacked Citgo—the only U.S. heavy crude refinery—at dirt-cheap prices after Trump deliberately tanked its value through pirate ship seizures and brutal blockades. Now Trump is siphoning billions in stolen Venezuelan oil directly into Singer's coffers to bankroll Israel's endless wars and globalist schemes.   A white American mom of three was gunned down cold-blood by a faceless ICE agent in Minneapolis. Owen Shroyer teams with Stew to rip open this engineered psyop designed to unleash riots, crush freedoms, and force-feed the AI Gestapo down our throats. Is this the deep-state trigger for martial law? There is no law requiring Americans in the 50 states to file or pay federal income tax—yet trillions are seized to bomb nations for Jewish billionaires and push global degeneracy at gunpoint. Peymon Mottahedeh exposes the century-old fraud and gives you the exact, battle-tested steps to go exempt, keep your earnings, and join the millions already refusing to feed the swamp. Erika Kirk isn't just grieving—she's the centerpiece of a decades-long web connecting Romanian orphanages, U.S. military bases, and accusations of child trafficking that go straight to the top.  

Intermittent fasting is a trending nutrition strategy—but many women unknowingly compromise their hormonal health by skipping breakfast. In this episode, Lisa explores how breakfast impacts ovulation, energy levels, progesterone production, and overall cycle health. Drawing on research highlighted in Real Food for Fertility, she discusses why a strategic eating window—with sufficient calories and macronutrients—is critical for fertility optimization, especially for active women or those TTC.

Creatine is a hot subject right now, but I'm guessing you might not know as much about it as you could. Well step into a new creatine masterclass with our friends from Qualia. This episode shows you why it is not just for muscle, but one of the most powerful and well studied upgrades for brain energy, metabolism, sleep resilience, and long term human performance. You will learn how creatine supports mitochondria, buffers ATP, reduces cravings, and helps you think, train, and recover with more energy instead of relying on willpower. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Greg Kelly for a deep, practical masterclass on creatine and energy biology. Greg Kelly is a naturopathic physician, functional medicine expert, and longtime researcher in supplements and nootropics. He has spent decades studying creatine, mitochondrial function, cognition, and performance, and has contributed to peer reviewed research while working directly with athletes, clinicians, and high performers. Together, Dave and Greg break down how creatine works at the cellular level, why it matters for cognition, emotional regulation, and metabolism, and how it supports the brain and body during stress, sleep deprivation, dieting, and recovery. They explore neuroplasticity, ATP production, magnesium, methylation, and why energy availability drives discipline, focus, and resilience more effectively than willpower alone. They also explain why creatine matters for women, aging adults, and people dealing with fatigue or obesity, and how creatine supports brain function even when muscle mass is low. This conversation connects bodybuilding research with modern longevity science, nootropics, functional medicine, and sleep optimization. Dave and Greg also expose why creatine quality matters, how contaminants can impair mitochondrial function, why some products fail label claims, and how to choose forms that absorb better and cause less bloating. Practical strategies like dosing, timing, stacking with magnesium, and using creatine with hot coffee are all covered, including why Dave uses it with Danger Coffee as part of his Smarter Not Harder approach. You'll Learn: • Why creatine acts as an ATP buffer for both muscles and the brain • How mitochondria drive cognition, metabolism, and emotional regulation • The real dosing debate from low daily maintenance to higher cognitive doses • Why women often need more creatine than men • How creatine supports performance during sleep deprivation and sleep debt • The link between magnesium, creatine phosphate, and ATP production • How methylation and TMG relate to creatine synthesis and timing • Why creatine can reduce cravings by improving cellular energy • How low quality creatine and contaminants can damage mitochondrial function • When creatine matters most for longevity, resilience, and human performance Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

From hyper-personalized health data to longevity, cortisol testing, wearables, and digital detoxes, this episode explores what's truly shaping the future of health and how to navigate it without overwhelm. In this insightful episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, hosts Marnie Dachis Marmet and Stephanie May Potter break down the most important health and wellness trends emerging in 2026. They discuss how technology, AI, at-home testing, and recovery tools are changing the way we care for our bodies while emphasizing why human connection, coaching, and personalization matter more than ever. Through real-life examples, client stories, and honest conversation, they unpack what's helpful, what's hype, and how to apply these trends in a sustainable, realistic way so you can feel better, live longer, and protect your mental and physical well-being.     What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why personalized, data-driven wellness is becoming the foundation of health in 2026 How wearables like Oura, Whoop, and Apple Watch are shaping sleep, recovery, and stress awareness The role of at-home lab testing, including cortisol testing, in understanding your body Where AI fits into wellness and why it can't replace human support and connection How accessibility to health tools is expanding and what that means for long-term care The growing focus on longevity, cellular health, and recovery, not just anti-aging Why digital detoxes and tech boundaries are becoming essential for mental health How community wellness, recovery spaces, and movement-based practices are replacing traditional social habits What women need to know about hormones, menopause, and personalized testing Why simplicity, awareness, and guidance matter more than chasing every new trend       Noteworthy Quotes from the Episode: "2026 is really the year of personalized health. There isn't one solution that works for everyone." "Data can be incredibly powerful, but it still needs a human to help interpret what it means." "Wearables don't just show us numbers, they validate how our bodies already feel." "Longevity isn't about anti-aging. It's about staying strong, mobile, and energized for life." "Digital detox isn't about removing technology, it's about creating boundaries." "Wellness doesn't need to be complicated. Simplicity is often the most effective approach."       Episode Breakdown with Timestamps:   [00:00] – Trailer: Longevity, AI, supplements, GLP-1s & modern wellness challenges [01:04] – Hosts Introduction: Welcome to The Art of Living Well Podcast [01:50] – New Year Wellness Trends: Why 2026 health trends matter [02:37] – Personalized Wellness: Bio-individuality, data-driven health & accessibility [04:10] – AI vs Human Support: Where technology helps and where human care is essential [05:58] – Wearables & Health Data: Oura, Whoop, Apple Watch, sleep & stress awareness [10:25] – Cortisol & At-Home Testing: Understanding stress, burnout & daily rhythms [23:00] – Digital Detox & Longevity: Tech boundaries, mental health & aging well   _____________________________ "We love supporting our health from the inside out with Redmond Real Salt and Relyte Electrolytes.

In diet culture, hormones are frequently blamed for everything from weight gain and fatigue to irregular periods and mood changes. Scroll long enough and you'll find promises to “balance your hormones” through food rules, cleanses, or cutting out entire macronutrients. But what actually supports hormone health, and what's just another diet in disguise? In this episode, Matt sits down with endocrinologist Dr. Gregory Dodell for a grounded conversation on hormone health, GLP-1 medications and how to approach endocrinology through a non-diet lens. Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?

Discover the five science-backed reasons you're always tired and what to do about it. From adrenal dysfunction and chronic inflammation to nutritional deficiencies, sunlight exposure, and hormone decline—learn how to identify your fatigue triggers and restore your energy naturally with actionable lab work, lifestyle changes, and targeted supplementation. FEATURED PRODUCT Zen, featuring bovine adrenal gland extracts, is designed to support adrenal function and help regulate cortisol levels—the key hormone controlling your stress response, sleep quality, and daily energy. If you're always tired despite getting enough sleep, Zen provides the targeted adrenal support your body needs to restore balanced cortisol production and reclaim the calm, sustained energy you've been missing. Get zen here: https://mswnutrition.com/products/zen 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Adrenal dysfunction is the primary cause of chronic fatigue - When stress overactivates your adrenal glands for years, cortisol production becomes imbalanced, disrupting sleep and draining energy even after a full night's rest. Chronic inflammation creates debilitating tiredness - Conditions like insulin resistance, autoimmune disorders, liver issues, and chronic pain keep your body in a constant state of metabolic stress that depletes energy reserves. Nutritional deficiencies directly impact energy production - Deficiencies in B vitamins (especially B6, B9, and B12), choline, and vitamin D impair neurotransmitter production and cellular energy, with genetic factors like MTHFR compounding the problem. Morning sunlight is non-negotiable for energy regulation - Just 10-15 minutes of morning sun exposure produces 10,000 IU of vitamin D, increases serotonin and cortisol naturally, and sets your circadian rhythm for better sleep and daytime energy. Hormone decline accelerates fatigue after age 40 - Low testosterone in men and declining estrogen in women contribute significantly to persistent tiredness, but addressing adrenal health should always come before hormone replacement. JOIN THE SCHOOL Recovering from adrenal fatigue requires more than just breathing exercises and supplements—your diet plays a crucial role in cortisol regulation and energy stability. That's why we're launching a 6-week "No Grains. No Sugar." class starting Thursday, January 15th. Eliminating grains and sugar helps stabilize blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and take stress off your adrenal glands—giving them the space they need to recover. Beyond the structured classes, the School of Doza community connects you with others working through their own health transformations. Share what's working (and what's not), get accountability for your 90-day adrenal reset, and have your questions answered during our Wednesday "Ask Me Anything" sessions that function like group consults. Whether you need help interpreting your DHEAS results, troubleshooting your HRV tracking, or figuring out why you're still crashing at 2 PM, the community and weekly sessions give you direct access to guidance and support. Start with a FREE TRIAL and join us for the "No Grains. No Sugar." class to accelerate your adrenal recovery.

Ready for a judgment-free conversation about GLP-1 agonists and what they can truly offer midlife women seeking better energy, metabolic health, and longevity? In this podcast, hormone and nutrition expert Ashley Koff joins me to break down the noise and misinformation around GLP-1s, reframing them as one possible tool—not a magic fix—within a much bigger picture of whole-body health.  Ashley shares how to advocate for yourself as an empowered patient, ask better questions, and partner more effectively with your healthcare provider with confidence.  We also dive into why nutrition and lifestyle are essential foundations for optimizing hormones, whether you're using GLP-1s or not. Most importantly, we emphasize listening to your body and making informed choices that support long-term vitality.  If you're curious about GLP-1s and want clear, compassionate guidance for midlife health, this is a must-listen episode! Ashley Koff, RD Ashley Koff 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's also the author of the upcoming book, Your Best Shot. As a practitioner for over 25 years, 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.

QUOTES “That means your weight-health hormones are going to be impacted. And let's look at this whole thing systemically– I think there's a lot of ways we can go in this, but one of the things I'm very concerned about is the way that people are being judged.” “I think in that way the biggest answer I would have for you is for us to stop blaming the medication for working the way the medication is supposed to work.

A practical, mindset-focused conversation about starting the new year without punishment, panic, or regret. Episode #239

What really happens in your brain, hormones, mood, and body when alcohol becomes part of your nightly routine? In this episode, Wendy welcomes back fan-favorite Dr. Brooke Scheller for her third appearance to break down alcohol's real impact—far beyond “just the liver.” Together, they talk about why alcohol can be a tough topic to discuss, how it may fuel anxiety, depression, and hormone chaos (especially in midlife), and how nutrition can help restore and repair the body so you feel better, crave less, and step back into your power.   What You'll Learn Why alcohol is harder on your body than most people realize—and how it can affect every organ How alcohol can impact anxiety, mood, and brain chemistry (and why some people feel better when they cut back) The connection between alcohol and hormones, cortisol, blood sugar, and menopause/perimenopause symptoms How alcohol can disrupt gut health and the microbiome, contributing to IBS, constipation, and inflammation Why it doesn't have to be “all or nothing”—and how to approach cutting back from a place of empowerment  

In this episode, Dr. Nestor Rodriguez joins Eric Malzone to unpack what the future of health, fitness, and medicine really looks like—and why the traditional healthcare model is falling short. Dr. Rodriguez shares the origin story of Carbon World Health, a fully integrated model that blends medical care, fitness, recovery, hormones, aesthetics, and longevity under one roof. Drawing from his background in emergency medicine, work with professional athletes, and experience inside broken hospital systems, he explains why we've normalized suboptimal health—and how data-driven, personalized care can change that. The conversation dives into hormones, labs, VO₂ max, recovery, peptides, telehealth, and why accountability matters more than any tool. They also explore the growing role of AI, the rise of longevity culture, and what true collaboration between the medical and fitness industries should look like moving forward.

What if the fatigue, stubborn weight changes, brain fog, inflammation, or burnout you're experiencing isn't a failure of willpower, but a signal that your metabolism is under strain? In this solo episode, Dr. Taz unpacks what metabolic health actually means in the age of GLP-1 medications. She explains why weight loss alone is not the same as healing, and how focusing only on the scale can quietly erode muscle, gut function, hormonal balance, cellular energy, and nervous system resilience.You'll learn why so many people lose weight but still feel exhausted, inflamed, anxious, or disconnected from their bodies. Dr. Taz breaks down the six core metabolic engines that regulate energy, fat storage, blood sugar, hormones, stress response, and longevity, and why ignoring even one of them can stall long-term health.This episode reframes metabolism as a full body system. One that includes the gut microbiome, hormone signaling, mitochondrial function, liver detoxification, muscle health, and the nervous system. When these systems fall out of sync, weight becomes a symptom, not the root issue.Dr. Taz shares: • Why GLP-1 medications support weight loss but do not repair metabolic dysfunction • How up to 25% of weight lost on GLP-1s can come from muscle, impacting long-term health and longevity • Why the gut is the foundation of metabolic health and how digestion, bile flow, and microbiome balance shape hormones and inflammation • How hormone shifts, especially in midlife, can rapidly disrupt blood sugar, cholesterol, energy, and weight • The role of cellular and mitochondrial health in fatigue, brain fog, and metabolic slowdown • Why liver function is central to detoxification, fat metabolism, and insulin regulation • How stress and nervous system dysregulation can drive cravings, poor sleep, and metabolic instability • How to identify which metabolic engine needs attention first so your plan stays targeted and sustainableWhether you're currently on a GLP-1, considering one, struggling after coming off, or simply want to build metabolic health that lasts for decades, this episode offers a grounded, integrative roadmap. You don't need to chase trends or stack solutions. You need to understand the system you're living in.You may not control every variable that shaped your metabolism, but you can change how it functions moving forward.Stay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Follow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsGet your copy of The Hormone Shift: Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and MenopauseHost & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek)

Do You Have A Hormone Imbalance? Take my FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz Studies show women spend an average of six years shrugging off perimenopause symptoms before realizing what's actually going on. Six. Years. Now, I'm no mathlete, but that's six years of wasted time, money, and energy spent second-guessing our bodies… for relief that feels temporary at best.

In this episode, I'm peeling back the curtain on the habits, beliefs, and outdated strategies I want every woman in perimenopause to leave behind in 2025 and address your most commonly Googled questions, including: ✅ Why am I gaining weight in perimenopause even though I'm eating less? ✅ Can you have a hormone imbalance even if your blood work is normal? ✅ Why do I have so many symptoms at the same time? ✅ Is too much cardio bad for hormones in perimenopause? ✅ How does caffeine impact your hormones? ✅ Should I be counting macros after 40? ✅ Why can't I sleep through the night in perimenopause?

Dr. Alyssa Olenick is one of the fastest-rising educators and coaches in the evidence-based fitness space. Known for her clarity, skepticism, and ability to translate complex physiology into practical coaching decisions, Alyssa returns to the show to tackle one of the most misunderstood topics in modern fitness.In this episode, Alyssa joins Andrew Coates to unpack what she actually means when she says “most women would be better off if they trained more like men”—and why so much women-specific training advice is built on shaky assumptions, incentives, and half-understood biology.Rather than arguing for a one-size-fits-all approach, Alyssa makes a strong case for prioritizing training experience, individual capacity, and fundamentals over sex-based fear-mongering and hormonal hype.IN THIS EPISODE, ALYSSA SHARES INSIGHT ON:What she really means by “women should train more like men”The difference between women-based training evidence vs. women-based hypothesesWhy many popular influencers sell certainty without sufficient evidenceThe incentives behind unproven or disproven training narrativesWhy differences between individuals often matter more than sex differencesWhether women (or anyone) should fear cortisol spikes from intense trainingWhy stress is not inherently bad and how context mattersHow stress management actually fits into training and lifeWhy elevated heart rate during lifting is not cardioWhy strength training cannot replace cardiovascular trainingHow menstrual cycle considerations are often oversimplifiedAnd much moreInstagram: @doclyssfitnessCHAPTERS00:50 Debunking Fitness Myths: Training Like a Man01:14 The Importance of Structured Strength Training02:24 The Role of Intensity in Training03:28 Nutrition Tracking and the MacrosFirst App04:32 Programming for Women vs Men06:01 Understanding Stress and Hormones in Training12:26 Debunking Hormonal Hypotheses20:25 Fitness Status vs Sex Differences26:15 Hormonal Effects on Women's Training27:18 Menstrual Cycle and Training Adaptations29:16 Perception vs Physiological Impact32:13 Individual Variability in Menstrual Cycles34:03 Cardiovascular Responses and Training Adjustments38:24 Lifting vs Cardio: Clearing the Confusion46:35 The Importance of Cardiovascular Fitness52:00 Final Thoughts and TakeawaysSUPPORT THE SHOWIf this episode challenged your thinking, you can support the show by:Subscribing and checking out more episodesSharing it on social media (tag me — I will respond)Sending it to a coach or client confused by hormone-based fitness adviceFOLLOW ANDREW COATESInstagram: @andrewcoatesfitnesshttps://www.andrewcoatesfitness.comPARTNERS AND RESOURCESRP Strength App (use code COATESRP)https://www.rpstrength.com/coatesJust Bite Me Meals (use code ANDREWCOATESFITNESS for 10 percent off)https://justbitememeals.com/MacrosFirst – FREE Premium TrialDownload MacrosFirstDuring setup, answer: How did you hear about us?Type: ANDREWKNKG Bags (15 percent off)https://www.knkg.com/Andrew59676Versa Gripps (discount link)https://www.versagripps.com/andrewcoatesTRAINHEROIC – FREE 90 Day Trial (2 steps)Go to: https://www.trainheroic.com/liftfreeReply to the email you receive (or email trials@trainheroic.com) and let them know Andrew sent you

This is a public health crisis so Sheletta chats with her friends from Harmoni-Wellness to dispel the misinformation and discuss barriers to menopause treatment.

In this eye-opening episode of Paloma Health's podcast, we dive into the powerful — and often overlooked — role of gut dysbiosis and how an imbalanced microbiome can disrupt your thyroid, hormones, and weight. If you're living with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's and struggling with bloating, fatigue, inflammation, stubborn weight gain, or worsening hormone symptoms, dysbiosis may be a hidden driver behind how you feel.We unpack the science of the thyroid-gut axis, explaining how gut dysbiosis can interfere with thyroid hormone absorption and conversion, increase intestinal permeability, and fuel chronic inflammation — all of which may worsen autoimmune thyroid conditions. You'll learn why gastrointestinal symptoms are so common in thyroid patients, yet often overlooked in conventional treatment plans.This episode also explores the estrobolome, the collection of gut bacteria responsible for regulating estrogen metabolism. When dysbiosis is present, estrogen clearance can be impaired — a problem that becomes especially impactful during perimenopause and menopause, when hormonal balance is already shifting. The result? Increased symptoms, metabolic slowdown, and added resistance to weight loss.We connect the dots between dysbiosis, gut microbiota diversity, Hashimoto's, hypothyroidism, menopause, and weight regulation, showing how gut imbalances can ripple through multiple systems at once. Most importantly, we share clinician-informed, practical strategies to begin restoring gut balance in ways that support your thyroid — without extreme elimination diets or generic supplement advice.

In this episode, Abbie explains how early exercise and play help build the foundation for bone health, muscle development, and cardiorespiratory fitness in girls, as well as how puberty and menstruation shape athletic performance, motivation, and recovery. She also explores how women can tailor training and nutrition across the menstrual cycle through smart fueling, hydration, and inflammation management; examines the evidence behind supplements such as creatine, omega-3s, and magnesium; and unpacks the metabolic and body composition changes that accompany the transition into perimenopause and menopause. Finally, she covers practical exercise programming for busy women, training and nutrition considerations during pregnancy and postpartum, and the evolving role of hormone therapy alongside lifestyle-based, evidence-driven approaches that help women better advocate for their health. We discuss: Abbie's background in distance running and her interest in studying women's health around exercise [3:00]; The role of early-life exercise in building lifelong bone, muscle, and cardiovascular health in girls [4:00]; Training principles for premenstrual girls, the risks of early specialization and delayed puberty from intense training, and how youth sport participation can shape bone and spinal health [7:15]; Nutrition as fuel in young female athletes: supporting training, growth, and performance [11:00]; Training and recovery across the menstrual cycle: recovery, nutrition, supplements, and practical strategies for performance support [16:00]; The benefits of creatine supplementation and importance of protein intake across the menstrual cycle [27:15]; How women should approach training intensity and volume across the menstrual cycle [33:00]; How to identify and monitor the perimenopausal transition and why this phase represents a critical window for exercise and nutrition interventions [37:15]; Case study: time-efficient exercise program for a busy, perimenopausal woman [42:00]; Why improving body composition is a better goal than weight loss, and how to set realistic fat-loss targets in midlife women [53:30]; How to preserve muscle and bone while using GLP-1 medications: resistance training, protein intake, and more [58:15]; Designing a three-hour-per-week training plan for sustainable body recomposition [1:03:30]; Abbie's insights from her 20+ years of self-tracking: nutrient timing, injury prevention, excessive training, bone health, and more [1:07:15]; How pregnancy and the postpartum period affect body composition, and how consistent exercise and intentional nutrition can prevent a permanent shift in body fat or muscle mass [1:13:30]; Changes in muscle quality and metabolic flexibility during perimenopause and menopause, and how exercise may counteract hormonally driven sarcopenia [1:21:45]; The biggest open questions about women's health: combining menopause hormone therapy with exercise, GLP-1 drugs, minimizing injury risk, and more [1:32:00]; How the training response differs between men and women, and the importance of type IIa muscle fibers [1:39:15]; Training advice for the hypothetical 70-year-old woman who has never exercised deliberately [1:47:00]; Misinformation about exercise and nutrition for women, injury risk, supplement hype, and the need for more nuanced messaging around hormones, recovery, and midlife training [1:53:30]; Benefits of hormone therapy in midlife women and its interaction with exercise and lifestyle interventions [2:00:15]; Peter's overall take on how women should approach exercise volume and intensity at various life phases and time constraints [2:03:00]; and More.

Hormone Replacement Therapy is back in the spotlight, and many women are asking the same questions: Is it safe? Is it right for me? And why does it still feel so confusing? In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz breaks down what really happened after the Women's Health Initiative study, why the black box warning was added and later removed, and what newer research has clarified about HRT, timing, hormone type, and delivery method. She explains why lifestyle and metabolic health are the missing pieces in this conversation and why HRT should never be viewed as a standalone solution. This episode is not about telling you yes or no. It's about helping you understand the science so you can make an empowered, informed decision with your doctor.

Today I'm starting a conversation I've been feeling pulled toward for a while now - stress, safety, and why so many of us feel stuck in hormone patterns even when we're doing the right things.This is the first episode in what I'm calling the Safety vs. Stress Series, where we're going to slow down and look at how our body responds to different types of stress, why it prioritizes survival over hormone balance, and how we can start creating more safety instead of just trying to fix symptoms.If you've been stressed for so long that you think it's normal now, this episode will gently challenge that idea. Here's what you'll learn:The point where stress stops being temporary and starts shaping your cycleHow your body has been compensating long before you realized something was offWhy your hormones aren't failing you; they're simply reacting to everything going onThis episode lays the foundation for the weeks, if not the whole year, ahead. So, invite a friend or two to listen together. I promise this is a conversation we all need. As you listen, jot down what stands out and feels true for you.

Have you ever noticed that your energy is not consistent throughout the month? Some weeks you feel sharp, motivated, and on top of everything, and other weeks you feel exhausted, anxious, foggy, or completely wiped out. That is not random. That is hormones. In this episode, I walk you through how estrogen and progesterone impact your energy across your entire cycle and why understanding this changes everything. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it. I break down what a typical 28 day cycle looks like and what your hormones are supposed to be doing at each phase. What we cover in this episode: • Why estrogen and progesterone are at their lowest during your period and why testosterone is actually the dominant hormone at that time • How rising estrogen after your period fuels motivation, focus, productivity, and natural energy • Why ovulation is often your peak energy, creativity, and confidence window when hormones are balanced • What progesterone is supposed to do after ovulation and why it should feel calming, grounding, and supportive • Why needing more rest, calories, and recovery in the second half of your cycle is normal • How basal body temperature changes after ovulation and what that tells us about progesterone • The difference between your ovulation window and your fertile window • Why energy crashes, anxiety, irritability, or feeling wired but exhausted are signs something is off • What estrogen dominance and progesterone deficiency actually look like in real life • Why irregular cycles and unpredictable energy are not something you just have to live with I also explain the high hormone phase after ovulation and why this is the most important time to test hormones. This is when both estrogen and progesterone are present and your body has to process them properly. If you feel great one week and terrible the rest of the month, if PMS is intense, if ovulation feels painful or exhausting, or if your energy never feels predictable, those are all signs your hormones are not being produced or processed the way they should be. This is where hormone testing matters. Why I use DUTCH hormone testing: A DUTCH test allows us to see: • How much estrogen and progesterone you are actually producing • Whether you are ovulating and producing progesterone consistently • How your body is metabolizing and clearing hormones • Cortisol patterns that affect energy and burnout • Androgen levels, nutrient markers, and methylation Blood work can show hormone levels at a single moment, but it does not show functional patterns or how hormones are being used and cleared. DUTCH testing gives us the full picture. I share a real example of a woman who had done everything right. Clean eating, less caffeine, better sleep, no sugar, no alcohol, and still had terrible energy. Her DUTCH test showed exactly why her body could not make energy effectively. Once we saw the data, everything made sense. Numbers do not lie. Testing removes the guessing. Your energy should ebb and flow with your cycle, but it should still be manageable. Your hormones should not hold you back from living your life, working toward your goals, or feeling like yourself. If your hormones are interfering with your quality of life, it's time to test.  Get your hormone test: https://drbethwestie.com/dutch-hormone-testing/

If you've spent years — or decades — starting diets on Monday, feeling "good" or "bad" based on what you ate, or letting the scale decide your mood for the day… this episode is a deep breath of fresh air. In this powerful Tea & Truth conversation, Lynne invites you to gently step out of diet culture and into a new way of relating to food, your body, and your midlife health: nourish, don't punish. You'll learn why strict dieting backfires in midlife (especially with shifting hormones), how it impacts your metabolism, mood, cravings, and self-worth — and what it looks like to support your body with kind, steady, hormone-friendly nourishment instead of restriction and shame. This isn't about giving up on your health. It's about finally choosing approaches that actually work for women in perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.

What if improving your hormone health didn't require supplements, protocols, or “fixing” your body—just fueling it properly? In this episode, I break down how eating enough and fueling intentionally as a runner can inadvertently support hormone health. We're talking improved fertility markers, fewer PMS symptoms, better cycle regularity, increased sex drive, and more support through perimenopause—all without chasing hormone hacks. You'll learn: How underfueling disrupts key reproductive hormones Why carbs are not the enemy of estrogen or progesterone How proper running nutrition supports ovulation, libido, and cycle health Why many hormone symptoms are actually energy availability issues If you run—and have hormones (so… yes)—this one's for you.   Want to try Go Guarded?
