3 Steps to Balance Your Hormones for Sustainable Weight Loss happening September 16th at 12 PM EST.

If you’ve been stuck in a weight loss plateau, chances are it’s not your willpower—it’s your strategy. And when the scale doesn’t move, it’s easy to feel discouraged, less confident, and even start pulling back from the people you love most.

In this episode, I share a different approach to fasting—one that actually works for women. You’ll learn how to reset your metabolism without the extreme methods (like skipping breakfast or eating in tiny windows) that leave you more stressed, tired, and hungry.

I’ll walk you through 3 powerful fasting shifts that can help you break through a plateau, restore your energy, and feel like yourself again so you don't pull away from your spouse when he comes near you :)

So many women eat “clean” and still feel bloated, exhausted, and stuck. In this episode, I share the story of a client who realized her health struggles actually began after having kids—and how waiting decades to address them cost her energy and presence with her family.

I’ll uncover the 3 most overlooked habits that could be keeping you from feeling light, energized, and vibrant—no matter how clean your diet is:

Why chewing your food properly matters more than you think

How eating in a stressed, rushed state keeps your gut shut down

Why lacking digestive enzymes and diversity in meals is slowing you down

And, if you’re ready to finally balance your hormones and feel vibrant again—not just lose weight, but reclaim energy for yourself and your family—I’d love to invite you to my upcoming Weight Loss & Energy Workshop.

If you’re a mom in your 30s and you’re dealing with mood swings, heavy periods, PMS, low libido, or waking up at 2 AM, you might be thinking, "My hormones must be a mess!" And you're not wrong… but what if the real issue started before your hormones even got involved?

In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into why so many hormone symptoms in your 30s—like hair loss, irritability, fatigue, and low sex drive—are actually rooted in blood sugar instability and insulin resistance. I’ll explain how chronically spiking or dropping blood sugar dysregulates your entire hormone cascade

In this eye-opening episode, I’m joined by Leisha Drews — fellow FDN-P, registered nurse, and host of the Happily Hormonal Podcast  for a powerful conversation about women’s hormones, cycle health, and the real impact of birth control.

We unpack why your period is so much more than just a monthly inconvenience, how hormonal birth control is affecting far more than just fertility, and how you can start tracking your cycle naturally to support your energy, metabolism, and long-term health. Whether you're postpartum, considering coming off birth control, or just want to better understand your body, this episode will empower you with real, root-cause answers.

Why your period is a vital sign of your health

What hormonal birth control really does to your body (that no one talks about)

Signs your cycle is out of balance

How to naturally track your cycle with confidence

How understanding your hormones can improve fatigue, mood, and metabolism

The first steps to restoring your cycle after hormonal birth control

Leisha Drews is an RN, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, and the host of the Happily Hormonal Podcast. She helps women balance their hormones naturally so they can feel energized, empowered, and confident in their bodies again — without relying on bandaid fixes.

Let’s find out what your body’s been trying to tell you and help you feel like yourself again.

You’re doing all the right things, eating clean, working out, trying to sleep, but the scale isn’t moving and your energy is flat.

You go to the doctor, and they say:

In today’s episode, I’m walking you through three functional labs I use with clients to finally get answers when weight won’t budge, fatigue is constant, and you feel dismissed by conventional care.

Here’s what we cover:

Why normal labs don’t always reflect how you feel

How your minerals (HTMA), gut health (GI-MAP), and mitochondria (OAT) are often the missing puzzle pieces

What these labs tell us about stress, hormone imbalances, inflammation, and gut dysfunction before it shows up on standard labs

Real examples of what I see in exhausted, burned-out moms and how we support healing

If you’re tired of dead ends and want a deeper root cause approach to your fatigue and weight loss resistance after babies, this one’s for you.
