  • 12. What I Eat in a Day (And Why)
    Aug 21 2025

    🍽️ A behind-the-scenes look at how I fuel my day.

    If you’ve ever wondered how to actually build meals that support hormone health, blood sugar balance, and metabolism without obsessing over macros or measuring every bite...this episode is for you.

    I walk you through:

    • My exact morning routine (yes, including my coffee)
    • How I build my meals to support energy and cycle shifts
    • What I drink before and after movement
    • Why I choose certain carbs during my luteal phase
    • My favorite hydration strategies and adrenal cocktail recipe
    • And why none of this is about being “perfect”

    This isn’t a strict plan to follow. It’s a real-life rhythm rooted in intention and I hope it helps spark some new ideas for the season you’re in.

    💛 Plus, I’m linking to some of my favorite resources below in case you want to try what I use and love:

  • 11. Gut Check. Is Your Gut Sabotaging Your Metabolism?
    Aug 14 2025

    Bloating, brain fog, and belly fat that won’t budge...even when you’re eating clean? It might not be your hormones. It might be your gut.

    In today’s episode, I’m walking you through how gut dysfunction often hides behind “normal” labs, how it can mimic hormone issues, and why so many women over 35 hit a wall with their energy and weight loss despite doing all the “right” things.

    We’ll cover:
    • How your gut impacts hormone balance, cortisol, and fat storage
    • Sneaky gut symptoms that most women overlook
    • What testing I use in my practice when the basics aren’t working
    • 5 simple, high-impact shifts to support your gut (without overhauling everything)

    And of course, we’ll zoom out with a faith-rooted reminder that your body isn’t failing you. It’s communicating.

    This one’s for the woman who feels like she’s checked every box…and still doesn’t feel well.

    I also talk about the need for an Ox Bile supplement if you no longer have your gallbladder and promise you a link to my #1 choice supplement. You can click here for that.

  • 10. Health Isn't Just Physical...A Faith Check-In
    Aug 7 2025

    You’ve been doing everything right.
    Eating clean. Working out. Praying over your health.
    And still…something feels off.
    Not just in your body, but in your spirit.

    In today’s episode, we’re slowing down and getting honest about the part of healing we don’t talk about enough: the soul-level weight we carry when progress doesn’t come fast enough.

    We’ll talk about:
    • Why your goals might be exhausting you instead of encouraging you
    • How striving for healing can quietly become idolatry
    • What scripture actually says about rest, surrender, and trust
    • And how to find peace—even while you’re still waiting for breakthrough

    If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your peace—even while doing all the “right” things—this episode is your permission to pause.

    This isn’t a break from healing.
    It’s a return to where true healing starts.
