  • Beyond the Quick Fix: A Functional Approach to Hormones and Health

    Are you tired of doctors pushing prescriptions without looking for the root cause of your symptoms? In this episode, I share why I take a different approach as a functional nutrition practitioner and menopause specialist. Through personal stories - including my own experience with a doctor who wanted to prescribe strong blood pressure medication for stress without considering natural alternatives - I explain why comprehensive testing is crucial for understanding your body's needs.

    Learn about the gold standard DUTCH test, why all nine thyroid markers matter (not just the standard two), and how bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can be part of a balanced approach to hormone health. Discover why protecting your bone and brain health with proper hormone support is essential, and how natural interventions combined with appropriate BHRT can create optimal results.

    Whether you're dealing with hormone-related issues or simply want to understand your body better, this episode will show you why there's more to healthcare than quick-fix prescriptions and 15-minute doctor visits. It's time to take control of your health through proper testing, understanding root causes, and making informed decisions about your treatment options.

  • Why do we wait for January 1st to transform our lives? In this eye-opening episode, we challenge the culture of New Year's resolutions and reveal why this annual tradition might be the very thing holding you back from lasting change.

    As a master certified health coach and habit change expert, I dive deep into why the "fresh start" mindset can be a trap, especially when it comes to health and wellness goals. You'll learn why all-or-nothing thinking sabotages your success, how your brain actually builds sustainable habits, and why those small, imperfect steps forward matter more than you think.

    Whether you've already "failed" at your 2025 resolutions or you're stuck in the cycle of waiting for the perfect moment to begin, this episode will transform how you think about personal change. Discover why the best time to start isn't Monday, isn't the first of the month, and definitely isn't January 1st – it's right now.

    Key takeaways:
    - Why 80% of New Year's resolutions fail by February (and how to be in the successful 20%)
    - The surprising connection between hormonal health and habit formation
    - How to break free from the all-or-nothing mindset that's holding you back
    - Practical strategies for making lasting changes without waiting for the "perfect" time

    Time to stop waiting and start living. Your transformation doesn't need a calendar date – it needs you to take action today.

  • Why Intermittent Fasting Sabotages Your Menopausal Body

    In this eye-opening episode of Nutrition Your Way, we tackle the popular trend of intermittent fasting and why it's fundamentally incompatible with the menopausal body. While social media influencers might promote intermittent fasting as a one-size-fits-all solution, the reality is that your menopausal body requires a completely different approach.

    Discover why skipping breakfast can trigger a cascade of hormonal disruptions during menopause, leading to increased belly fat, anxiety, and disrupted sleep patterns. We dive deep into the science of why your body's stress response system, insulin regulation, and cortisol patterns make intermittent fasting not just ineffective, but potentially harmful during this life stage.

    This episode breaks down:
    - The crucial differences between a 20-something body and a menopausal body
    - How menopause changes your body's stress response system
    - Why breakfast becomes non-negotiable during menopause
    - Practical, hormone-friendly alternatives to intermittent fasting
    - Simple strategies for timing your meals to support your changing metabolism

    Whether you're approaching menopause, in the thick of it, or supporting someone who is, this episode provides clear, science-backed guidance for working with your body's natural rhythm, not against it. Learn why nourishing your body consistently throughout the day isn't just about comfort – it's about hormonal necessity.

    - Why credentials matter in nutrition advice
    - Common dangerous trends in nutrition advice
    - The problem with unqualified influencers selling weight loss products
    - How insufficient nutrition affects your health
    - The importance of proper macronutrients

    Key Points:

    - Helps combat age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia) and insulin resistance

    2. Protein Recommendations:
    - Aim for 0.8 to 1.0 grams of protein per pound of body weight daily
    - Example: A 150-pound woman should target 120-150 grams of protein per day

    - Macro needs vary based on individual factors (age, activity level, health conditions)
    - Importance of working with a nutrition coach for personalized recommendations

    4. Protein Timing:
    - Spread protein intake throughout the day for optimal muscle maintenance
    - Sample daily protein distribution shared

    5. Protein Sources:
    - High-quality sources include chicken, tuna, salmon, eggs, and protein shakes
    - Importance of finding sustainable protein sources that align with personal preferences

    6. Exercise Connection:
    - Combine increased protein intake with resistance training for best results
    - Aim for at least 2-3 strength training sessions per week

    7. Benefits Beyond Muscle:
    - Protein helps stabilize blood sugar levels
    - Can aid in weight management during menopause

    Remember: There's no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition. The key is finding a sustainable way to meet your protein needs that aligns with your tastes, lifestyle, and overall health goals.
