755. Feeling Off? Here's What 7 Days of Hormone Support Can Actually Shift


Listen Later

If you're overwhelmed by all the health advice and not sure where to start, this episode is your simple, targeted on-ramp. I'm breaking down exactly how just 7 focused days can nudge your hormones, nervous system, energy, mood, and digestion in the right direction—without complicated protocols or expensive gadgets. (Gary, my Springer spaniel, also makes a cameo… and yes, petting him is great for cortisol.)

Why 7 Days Works (and what we actually target)

Instead of trying to fix everything at once, we stack a few high-leverage habits that calm the nervous system, steady blood sugar, and support digestion—so your hormones can follow suit. You'll know what to do and what to try next if your first step doesn't land.

Our three pillars:

  • Energy: Create better mornings by prepping your nights (sleep hygiene + gentle cortisol "turn-on" routine).

  • Mood: Steadier blood sugar + specific fast-acting herbs and nutrient repletion you can feel, while longer-build supports get started.

  • Digestion: Simple shifts that reduce bloat, improve motility, and help you actually absorb what you eat.

What You'll Learn in This Episode
  • How to stop the overwhelm and pick the first right step (and the second, if needed).

  • AM/PM routines that signal your hormones at the right time (sleep → morning energy).

  • The 80/20 of blood sugar regulation for mood steadiness all day.

  • Quick-win gut supports to reduce bloat and re-train digestion.

  • A clear troubleshooting path if your first attempt doesn't move the needle.

  • Why short, focused action breaks the freeze state and builds momentum.

Real-Life Impact

I share client stories (including one who was at a serious crossroads in her marriage) where regulating mood and stabilizing energy revealed the next obvious target—sleep and gut. Once the fog lifted, the path forward got clear and doable.

What Can Shift in 7 Days
  • Days 1–2: Deeper sleep onset, fewer middle-of-the-night wakeups, less morning grogginess.

  • Days 3–4: Smoother energy curve; fewer crashes; less "hanger."

  • Days 5–7: Noticeable mood steadiness, reduced reactivity, lighter bloat/pressure, more "I feel like myself."

(Everyone's timeline is unique, but these are the common early wins.)

What's Inside the 7-Day Plan
  • Daily AM/PM checklists (so you don't have to think).

  • Meal framework for blood sugar balance without counting or apps.

  • Mini mood protocol (quick-start nutrients + herbs that act faster).

  • Digestion reset basics (timing, bitters, fiber progression, gentle motility cues).

  • If-this-then-that troubleshooting when Plan A doesn't click.

  • Weekend strategy so you don't lose momentum.

Is This For You?
  • You wake up tired, snap more than you want to, and bloat is "just normal."

  • You've tried "all the things" but need a simple, guided first week to gain traction.

  • You're not ready for full testing yet—but want to do something that actually helps.
