    Ep. 183 - How the Sun Affects your Metabolism with Dani Hamilton
    Sep 9 2025
    In this week’s episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely is joined by the brilliant Dani Hamilton, a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and blood sugar expert who is shattering everything we thought we knew about metabolic health. Forget restrictive diets and brutal biohacks. Dani guides us back to the most powerful, overlooked healing source we have: nature itself. After reversing her own PCOS and health crises, she discovered that even clients doing "everything right" were still stuck. Her answer? A deep dive into the quantum and circadian rhythms of light, water, and magnetism. Want the first look at episodes like this and Dr. Lovely's coveted product recommendations? Sign up for Fiona's Friday Favourites newsletter! This conversation is a masterclass in bio-harmonization. Dani unleashes her signature blend of groundbreaking science and straight talk, revealing how our modern indoor lives are sabotaging our health. She explains why artificial blue light is a metabolic nightmare and how the sun’s infrared rays are a secret weapon for flawless blood sugar. This episode is packed with paradigm-shifting advice, including: Why your indoor life is a "blood sugar disaster" and how your LED lights are secretly spiking your cortisol and insulin. The incredible infrared effect: How simply eating your breakfast outside can lead to a dramatically better blood sugar response than the same meal indoors. Practical, powerful steps to sync with nature’s rhythm, including the non-negotiable magic of sunrise and sunset light. The game-changing power of orange-lens glasses and why pitch-black darkness is essential for metabolic repair and deep healing. If you're ready to trade-in complexity for the profound simplicity of sunlight and finally unlock vibrant energy, stable mood, and deep sleep, this conversation is your revelation. Tune in and discover how to let nature conduct your metabolic orchestra and awaken your body’s innate intelligence.

    Ep. 181 - Unbreakable - the Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause Explained with Dr. Vonda Wright
    Aug 26 2025
    In this week’s essential episode, Dr. Lovely is joined by Dr. Vonda Wright, an acclaimed orthopedic surgeon and longevity specialist, to decode a hidden crisis for women in midlife: the mysterious aches and pains that often get dismissed. Dr. Wright introduces her groundbreaking research on the Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause (MSM), putting a name to the frozen shoulders, unexplained tendonitis, bone loss, muscle loss and joint pain that derail so many women's lives at midlife. This conversation is a powerful deep dive into the undeniable link between declining estrogen and the health of your entire musculoskeletal system. Dr. Wright shares why her paper became a viral sensation with over 418,000 downloads, what this says about the gaps in women’s healthcare, and how you can move from feeling like you're "falling apart" to building a resilient, powerful body. What You’ll Hear: The MSM Breakdown: What it is and the most common conditions (it’s probably not just "aging"). The Estrogen Connection: How hormone loss directly fuels inflammation and tissue breakdown. Beyond a "hanger for Your meat suit": Why bone is a dynamic, sexy organ that controls your metabolism and brain health. A New Medical Language: How to talk to your doctor so you’re finally heard and understood. Preventing Frailty: The actionable strategies to build strength and vitality for decades to come. The Holistic Fix: Why effective treatment combines hormone therapy, manual therapy, smart nutrition, and targeted movement. This episode is your guide to stopping the pain cycle and advocating for the expert care you deserve. Dr. Wright’s insights will change how you view your body’s evolution and empower you to take control of your musculoskeletal health.
