Women are being massively failed when it comes to thyroid health — and if you’ve been dismissed, told your labs are “normal,” told it’s “just stress,” or handed medication that didn’t fix anything… this episode is going to piss you off in the best way.

I’m joined by Jenn Malecha, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and thyroid expert who has helped thousands of women uncover what their doctors completely overlooked.

We’re breaking down the truth no one is telling you:

• Why “normal” thyroid labs mean nothing

• Why TSH-only testing is one of the biggest failures in women’s health

• Why so many women stay exhausted, inflamed, bloated, and gaining weight even on medication

• What actually causes low thyroid function (hint: it’s NOT just your thyroid)

• The gut–liver–hormone connection your doctor never explained

• And the real roadmap to finally feeling like yourself again

This is the episode that finally makes everything click.
It’s validating, it’s eye-opening, and it’s the conversation women deserve.

Jenn is brilliant, experienced, and unfiltered — and this interview will change the way you look at your thyroid forever.

You’re eating clean. You’re working out.
You’re tracking, testing, tweaking…
But the weight still won’t move — and you feel exhausted by it all.

What if the real reason isn’t your macros… but your mind?

In this powerful episode, we dive into the science of self-talk — and how your thoughts can trigger the same stress response as actual danger.
Yep, your brain doesn’t know the difference between “there’s a bear chasing me” and “I ate too many carbs.”

🧠 Here’s what you’ll learn:
• The hidden ways negative self-talk drives cortisol and stalls fat loss
• How perfectionism and food guilt keep your body in fight-or-flight
• Why “just eat less” advice fails women over 40
• Tools to rewire your mindset for actual metabolic healing

💡 If you’re doing everything right and still stuck…
It’s time to stop blaming your body — and start listening to your thoughts.

The Truth About Toxic Load, Self-Love, and Healing

This episode goes deep into the overlooked truth about toxic load—and how it was silently wrecking my metabolism, energy, hormones, and confidence.

Even if you don’t have breast implants, your toxic burden might come from wine, Botox, birth control, scented candles, mold, or poor sleep.

I’m sharing how I healed from over 50 symptoms, got off the hormonal rollercoaster, and finally reset my metabolism by lowering my toxic load and supporting my liver daily.

What if the label you’ve been carrying—chronic fatigue, burnout, PCOS, anxiety—is actually what’s keeping you stuck?

In this episode, I sit down with Daina Gardiner, my Client Success Manager and long-time friend, to talk about how she spent over a decade using her diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome as a reason she couldn’t fully heal. Until one day, she decided to rewrite the story.

We talk about:

• The hidden payoff of holding onto a diagnosis

• How her nervous system was driving her symptoms

• The difference between real healing vs. symptom management

• And what finally allowed her to feel strong, empowered, and in control of her body again

This conversation is raw, powerful, and full of truth bombs.
