Everyone preps for birth. Almost nobody preps for what comes after.

In this episode, Brooke sits down with Nina Spears, founder of Baby Chick and doula, childbirth educator, and perinatal nutrition expert with 15 years of experience supporting over 800 families. Nina breaks down what pregnancy, birth, and postpartum really look like behind closed doors, and why preparing to become a mother matters just as much as preparing for a baby.

In this episode, you'll learn:

Nina's one big mindset shift: stop chasing the perfect nursery and start preparing for the mother you're becoming.

"If you breastfeed, the weight will just melt right off." It's one of the most common things moms are told, and one of the most common myths a registered dietitian hears.

In this episode, dietitian and lactation counselor Brooke Miller breaks down why breastfeeding alone doesn't guarantee weight loss, what's actually working against moms in those early postpartum months, and what to focus on instead of the scale.

If you're breastfeeding, had a baby in the last few years, or somewhere in between and wondering why the baby weight isn't budging, this episode will help you understand what's really going on in your body.

Intermittent fasting is everywhere right now. The promise? Drop body fat fast just by changing when you eat. But most of that advice wasn't designed for a mom's body.

In this episode, Brooke, a registered dietitian and lactation counselor, breaks down whether intermittent fasting actually works for women, how it shifts across different life stages, and what she recommends to the busy moms she works with every day.

If you've ever wondered whether IF is safe while breastfeeding, whether a 16-hour fast is realistic with kids' schedules, or whether skipping breakfast is actually hurting you, this episode is for you.

Intermittent fasting isn't required to lose weight or feel your best, and it's definitely not one-size-fits-all for women. The real key is high-protein, macro-friendly meals that fit your actual life, without the mental load of timing every bite.

Carbs have become the new "fat is bad." Moms are showing up terrified of bread, rice, even fruit. In this episode, Brooke breaks down whether carbs actually cause weight gain, how many you really need, and the one shift that matters far more than cutting carbs out completely.

What You'll Learn

Carbs aren't what's derailing your progress, the type and the pairing are. Swap in more fiber, balance your plate with protein and healthy fats, and stop fearing the foods that actually give you energy to keep up with your kids.

Did you know a woman is just as likely to break a bone in her lifetime as she is to get breast, uterine, or ovarian cancer?! Yet bone health rarely makes it onto a busy mom's radar until it's too late...

In this episode, Brooke sits down with Dr. John Neustadt, naturopathic physician, founder of Nutritional Biochemistry Inc., and bestselling author of Fracture Proof Your Bones, to unpack what really predicts fracture risk, what's silently working against your bones, and what you can start doing today, even in your 30s and 40s.

What You'll Learn

Bone loss is silent, common, and largely preventable. A bone density number isn't destiny. Protein, movement, medication awareness, and the right labs give you real control over your bone health, starting now, not just after menopause.

Eating healthy. Cutting back. Maybe even exercising more. And the scale still won't move. 😩

If that's you, this episode is for you, mama. Registered dietitian and mom of 3 Brooke Miller breaks down the real, research-backed reasons your weight loss might be stalled, and none of them are "you don't have enough willpower."

What You'll Learn

Your weight loss stall isn't a willpower problem. It's usually portions, hidden ingredients, missing strength training, or a metabolism that needs support, not more restriction. Small, sustainable changes win every time.

Many moms have heard the rule: "Don't eat after 7 PM if you want to lose weight." But is there actually any truth to it?

In this episode, Registered Dietitian and Certified Lactation Counselor Brooke Miller breaks down one of the most common nutrition myths and explains what the research really says about eating late at night, weight gain, metabolism, and bedtime snacks. 

You'll learn why the timing of your food matters far less than most people think, how skipping meals earlier in the day can fuel nighttime cravings, and when a bedtime snack can actually support your health goals.

Be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a fellow mom who's ever wondered whether eating after dinner is hurting her weight loss goals.

Remember: you don't need to fear food after 7 PM. The goal isn't eating less at night, it's fueling your body well throughout the entire day. 💛

You've probably seen it all over Instagram: "comment cortisol" and buy a supplement that promises to melt stress belly overnight.

In this episode, registered dietitian and lactation counselor Brooke Miller separates fact from fad, explaining exactly how chronic stress and elevated cortisol affect fat storage, blood sugar, muscle mass, and hunger hormones and why busy moms are especially vulnerable. 

She breaks down the difference between normal, healthy cortisol fluctuation and the chronic stress response that actually impacts your body composition, plus gives practical, no-extreme-diet strategies (and the supplements that are genuinely backed by research) to help you support your stress response without falling for the next miracle pill.

In This Episode, You'll Learn:

Cortisol is the downstream of a lot of things,  our sleep, our blood sugar, our exercise, how we cope with stress. No single pill or supplement will fix these root cause things. It’s important to look at everything in your lifestyle that can be impacting your cortisol levels.

If you've ever been told your high cholesterol is "just genetic" and there's nothing you can do but take medication, this episode is for you. I'm sharing the exact, research-backed changes that helped me drop my total cholesterol by 35 points, LDL by 27 points, and triglycerides by 80 points in 12 months, no medication required.

As a Registered Dietitian and mom of 3, I'm breaking down the biggest high cholesterol myths (starting with the dietary cholesterol myth, yes, eggs are fine!) and walking through the lifestyle and nutrition shifts that actually move the needle on cholesterol naturally.
