196. How to Balance Your Hormones and Calm Your Kids Naturally
You're eating the "right" foods. You're trying to take care of yourself. But you're busy AF, still exhausted, your Googling if your hormones might be all over the place, and your kids are having meltdowns over everything...on top of stress at work.
Here's the thing: It's not about eating more protein or cutting carbs. It's about blood sugar — and how the way you start your day is setting you (and your kids) up for chaos. That coffee before breakfast? The banana as a snack? They're quietly sabotaging your hormones, your energy, and even your kids' ability to regulate their emotions. (Believe me, I felt attacked yet so understood since I always start my day with caffeine & no food for 1-2 hours lol.)
But we go way beyond nutrition advice. In today's episode, holistic nutrition expert Stephanie Adler breaks down exactly how blood sugar affects your hormones, why you're so depleted after having kids, and what minerals have to do with all of it. We go DEEP, and she provides her solution for how to slow down & how how to stress less!
You'll understand:
- Why coffee before breakfast is tanking your blood sugar for the entire day (and what to do instead)
- The "naked carbs" rule that will change how you snack — for you and your kids
- How mineral depletion after pregnancy is the real reason you're still tired years later
- What a hair mineral analysis can reveal about your stress, hormones, and inflammation
This isn't another list of things you're doing wrong — it's the missing piece that finally makes everything click.
