Carbs have been villainized in women’s wellness spaces for years. But what if cutting carbs is actually making your hormonal symptoms worse?

In this empowering episode, Cody is joined by holistic hormone educator Stephanie Crassweller to break down the truth about insulin resistance, metabolism, and why carbs might be the very thing your body is begging for—especially during perimenopause and menopause.

You’ll learn:

Why carbs are not the root cause of insulin resistance

How stress and under-eating sabotage your metabolism

The surprising connection between carbs, ovulation, and progesterone

Which carbs actually support balanced hormones and better energy

Why women need a different approach than men—and how to reclaim yours

This is your permission slip to stop fearing food, start honoring your body, and get the tools to feel nourished, energized, and balanced again.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

•The myth that carbs cause insulin resistance

•How blood sugar and cortisol are intimately connected

•Why women need more carbs (not less) in midlife

•The role of carbs in supporting thyroid, fertility, and overall hormonal health

•Real food strategies for metabolic healing without restriction

Guest Spotlight:

Stephanie Crassweller is a women’s hormone and metabolism expert who helps women ditch diet dogma and reconnect with their body’s natural rhythms.

What if everything you’ve been told about sex after 40… is wrong?

If you’ve ever felt like your desire is gone, intimacy feels uncomfortable, or your body just isn’t responding the way it used to — this episode is your permission slip to stop settling and start exploring what’s really possible.

In this deeply empowering and refreshingly honest conversation, Cody sits down with Dr. Marcia Harris — Ivy League-trained surgeon and one of the nation’s leading hormone and sexual wellness experts — to talk about what really happens to our hormones, libido, and bodies during and after menopause. And more importantly: what you can do about it.

Dr. Harris has helped over 10,000 women feel energized, vibrant, and sexually confident again through her Total Transformation Protocol, bioidentical hormone therapy, and cutting-edge treatments like the O-Shot. She’s here to clear up the myths, take away the shame, and give you real tools to reconnect with your body — and your joy.

💬 In this episode, we cover:

•Why low libido, discomfort, and emotional disconnection are not “just aging”

•The hormonal shifts behind vaginal dryness, lower arousal, and lack of satisfaction

•The emotional impact of intimacy struggles — and how to start healing

•What bioidentical hormone therapy and the O-Shot really are (and how they work)

•The biggest menopause myths that need to be retired right now

•The first step to take if you’re feeling lost, disconnected, or discouraged

If you’ve ever struggled with infertility—or know someone who has—this episode will completely shift your perspective. Today, I’m joined by Monica Cox, Holistic Fertility Expert and founder of Finding Fertility, to dive deep into the often-missed root causes behind unexplained infertility.

After eight long years of trying to conceive, being told it was “impossible,” and navigating failed IVF treatments, Monica discovered what conventional medicine had missed—and went on to heal her body naturally and conceive her children. Now she helps women worldwide uncover hidden roadblocks like poor cellular health, toxic load, chronic inflammation, emotional stress, and subconscious blocks that impact fertility and hormone balance.

In this conversation, we discuss:

•Monica’s personal 8-year infertility journey—and what finally worked

•Why normal fertility tests often miss the real problem

•How cellular health, gut health, inflammation, and toxic load can disrupt fertility

•The role of subconscious beliefs, perfectionism, and trauma in fertility struggles

•How women over 35 (and in midlife) can optimize their hormones and fertility

•Lifestyle shifts that support fertility without burnout

•Why fertility is a vital sign for all women—not just those trying to conceive

•How to better prepare the next generation for hormone and fertility health

Whether you’re actively trying to conceive, planning for the future, or simply want to understand how to optimize your hormonal and cellular health — this episode is packed with hope, healing, and empowerment.

What if your wearable health tracker actually understood your body? Not just as a human—but as a woman?

In this powerful episode of It’s Hertime, Cody is joined by Dr. Lindsay Calcutt, a biomedical engineer who’s changing the future of health tech by designing it around the female experience. As the innovative mind behind Incora Health, Dr. Calcutt is breaking through the gender data gap and building the next generation of wearable technology—finally made for women’s real rhythms.

We explore:

•Why 99% of health tech funding ignores female-specific needs—and how that impacts your health

•How most wearables fail women by using male-biased baselines

•What makes Incora’s device different (hint: it’s not just fertility—it’s whole-body, lifespan-driven health)

•The role of biofeedback in understanding hormones, stress, sleep, and perimenopause

•How personalized data empowers you to self-advocate, ask better questions, and feel more connected to your body

If you’ve ever felt like your body was sending signals you couldn’t quite interpret, or your wearable wasn’t telling you the full story—this conversation will shift everything.

•Incora Health is pioneering tech that tracks what matters most to women, like hormonal changes, burnout cues, and perimenopause shifts.
