If you’ve ever been told your labs are “normal” but you still feel exhausted, foggy, or off, this episode is your game-changer.

In Part 2 of our conversation with thyroid expert McCall McPherson, we go beyond the basics and dive into how to actually understand your lab results, and why so many women are dismissed or misdiagnosed because their numbers fall within outdated, generic ranges.

Maria opens up about her own thyroid test results, and McCall breaks it all down: what’s truly considered optimal (not just “in range”), what your TSH, T3, and antibodies are really saying, and how understanding your labs can help you take back your energy, mood, metabolism, and more.

Because when you can read your labs like a thyroid expert, you stop guessing… and start healing smarter!!

HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: 

"Normal" isn't optimal. Most lab ranges are based on averages of unwell people, which means you can feel awful and still be told you're "fine." True healing begins with optimal, not just acceptable.

Your labs are a roadmap. TSH alone won’t tell the full story. Understanding markers like Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, and antibodies can unlock the real reason you feel off and guide you toward real solutions.

You can influence your results. Antibody levels can be improved with lifestyle changes. Tracking your labs over time empowers you to measure progress, reduce inflammation, and protect your thyroid health long-term.
