In this bite-sized but powerful episode of High Performance Health, I sit down with the incredible Julie Gibson Clark—named one of the slowest-aging women alive—to talk about tuning into your body, spotting subtle hormone imbalances, and how a fibroid diagnosis challenged everything she thought she knew about her health.

We also dive into her vibrant food-as-medicine approach, including how she eats over a pound of vegetables a day (yes, really!) and how she turned food prep into a soulful, grounding practice. If you’re in perimenopause or managing hormone therapy, this is 10 minutes of wisdom you don’t want to miss.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• Unexpected Fibroid: Julie shares how she caught it early by tuning into her body—not lab results.

• Beyond the Dutch Test: Why you need saliva, blood, and urine to see the full hormone picture.

• Estrogen Dominance Clues: Subtle signs can be missed without expert support.

• Don’t DIY HRT: The risk of “stacking” hormones without proper testing.

• Food as Connection: Julie’s approach to prepping beautiful veggie bowls.

• A Pound a Day: Why and how she gets 500g of vegetables into her daily routine.
