You’re doing everything “right”… but the belly fat won’t budge, cravings rage on , and your body feels like it’s working against you.

In this episode, we reveal a hidden hormonal player that could be at the root of it all: androgens — the group of “male” hormones that can quietly wreak havoc in the female body 💣.

We cover:

🔹 The real reason androgens rise in women over 35

🔹 How they trigger fat storage, cravings, and inflammation

🔹 Why this isn’t about being “too manly” — and how women with low progesterone or insulin resistance are most at risk

🔹 Natural and strategic ways to rebalance these hormones and reclaim your metabolism ⚖️🔥

This is the hormone conversation most women never hear — but desperately need to.🎧💛
