Andrea welcomes back metabolism scientist and women’s health educator Liz for part two of this conversation on fasting, hormones, metabolism, perimenopause, and why women’s health is far more nuanced than the internet makes it seem. They break down the truth about intermittent fasting, stress, muscle, nutrition, aging, and how to support your body without falling into fear based wellness advice. If you’ve been struggling with fatigue, weight changes, hormone shifts, or feeling overwhelmed by conflicting fitness advice, this episode will help you focus on what actually matters.

Andrea shares a personal realization sparked by reviewing her own program data, uncovering how the mindset you bring into something can shape your results before you even begin. She breaks down the difference between short term and long term thinking, why people often unknowingly self sabotage, and how this pattern shows up in fitness, relationships, and everyday life. Andrea walks through how to shift from a “prove it to me” mindset to “how can I make this work for me,” and why that simple change can transform your follow through and confidence.

Andrea reframes the idea of a “broken metabolism” and walks through the deeper drivers that truly influence how the body functions. She shares why metabolism is about far more than calories and workouts, pulling back the curtain on the roles of nutrition, hormones, the nervous system, training, and even breathing and core stability. Andrea also digs in to how stress, underfueling, and overtraining can quietly work against progress, and how a more holistic, supportive approach can help the body become responsive again for the long game.
