Feeling drained, gaining weight in new places, or dealing with nagging brain fog—but chalking it up to “just midlife”? 

You might be missing a key piece of the puzzle: 

Your thyroid.

I know this firsthand. 

Before I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s in my 30s, I spent years powering through exhaustion, thinning hair, unexplained weight gain (over 30 pounds!), and mood swings—thinking it was just life catching up with me. 

But ignoring the signs only made things worse.

That’s why I’m thrilled to welcome McCall McPherson, founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic and Modern Weight Loss, to this week’s podcast. 

McCall’s journey from frustrated thyroid patient to one of today’s top hormone experts fuels her innovative, no-stone-unturned approach. 

She’s helped thousands of women heal their thyroids, balance hormones, and reclaim their energy—without guesswork.

"By the time you're hitting perimenopause, you really need to be screening yourself annually in an in-depth manner because most likely you have a thyroid issue." 

"Both thyroid and perimenopause hormone dysfunction are two things that can very readily be addressed and fixed in so many women. It’s not something to just blow off and live with." 

"When you have low functioning thyroid, you start to lose progesterone and testosterone early on. It’s like a seesaw—once progesterone drops, estrogen becomes too heavy, making balance difficult without proper support." 

"Midsection fat gain during perimenopause isn’t just frustrating—it’s a direct health risk, linked to higher morbidity, earlier death, and chronic inflammation. It's common but should never be considered normal." – McCall McPherson

"It's damaging to tell women to 'eat less and exercise more' when they have underlying hormone or thyroid issues. Many women are doing everything right and still can't lose weight because deeper imbalances are at play." – McCall McPherson
