If you think creatine is just for gym bros and bodybuilders, today’s episode is going to change your mind. Yes, it helps with building muscle and strength, but recent research shows creatine is also a game-changing supplement for women in menopause and beyond—and not just for physical strength. We’re talking metabolism, energy, mood, mental clarity…the whole package.

Today my guest and I are talking about pain. Chronic pain. Joint pain. Muscle pain. The kind of pain that keeps us from moving our bodies and makes fat loss feel even harder than it already is post-menopause.

And who better to help us navigate all of this than Stacey Roberts—a physical therapist and holistic registered nurse who’s dedicated her life’s work to helping people relieve pain naturally—without surgery, injections, or medications.

Stacey brings the perfect mix of science and soul to this conversation, and she’s here to help us understand how pain and inflammation affect everything from mobility to metabolism, and how smart changes in movement, mindset, and nutrition can help us finally feel good in our bodies again—at any age.

So if you're ready to stop feeling stuck, stiff, or sidelined—and start taking real steps toward a pain-free, strong, and active life—you’re going to love this conversation.

Today I'm talking about cortisol because it gets blamed for everything… belly fat, stress, poor sleep, even cravings for salty snacks. But here's the deal—not everything you've heard about cortisol is true.

In this episode, I’m busting 3 of the biggest myths and teasing what you can expect from our brand-new 5-Day CORTISOL RESET. Because guess what? You’re not doomed by your stress hormones. You just need to know how to work with them—not against them.

Have you ever found yourself elbow-deep in a bag of chips and thought, “Wait, am I even hungry?” Or maybe you’ve tried to “be good” all day, only to eat your feelings the moment stress hits?

You're not broken—you're human. But understanding why we reach for food when we're not physically hungry is the first step to breaking the cycle.

That’s why I’ve invited a special guest—a health psychologist who specializes in emotional eating. We’re going to talk about what’s really going on behind the scenes when food becomes comfort, distraction, or reward... and how to gently shift those patterns without shame or restriction.

This conversation is going to hit home in the best way.

Are you drinking enough water? Before you say yes, let me hit you with a fact that blew my mind: The average American drinks nearly 40 gallons of soda per year, but less than half of what experts recommend in plain water. 🤯 And dehydration—even mild—can tank your energy, your mood, and yes, your fat loss progress. Today on Fat Loss School, we’re diving into Hydration 101—how much water you really need, why it’s a non-negotiable part of fat loss, and how to make it way more enjoyable with a few of my favorite supplements.

Do you feel like you are doing everything right - like eating very little and exercising - but your weight won’t budge? I have been there! I was a runner adding more & more miles to my routine but the scale was going in the wrong direction! It turns out I was likely under-fueled and over-exercising…so my body was stubbornly holding onto fat instead of releasing it to burn for fuel. Here’s my story that changed everything nearly 8 years ago!
