This is the Season 3 finale.

I'm wrapping up the year and reflecting on what we covered this season, including the Mineral Series, thyroid deep dives, and guests like Dr. Carolyn Dean, Kim Rodgers, and Amber White.

I also share what's ahead for season 4, including Michael Biamonte coming on to talk about Candida research and my own deep dive into mold toxicity - what I tested, what didn't work, and what actually helped.

If you've been wanting to do The Genetic Detox Protocol, enrollment closes January 5th. I also share what happened when I got my own detox genetics read - and why it explained so much about why my mold detox was taking forever. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still stuck, this might land.

In this episode:

1. Season 3 Recap and Favorite Moments
2. What's coming in Season 4
3. The Genetic Detox Protocol

LAST CHANCE for the Genetics Detox Package. Offer lasts until January 5th, 2026.

This episode is a deeply grounding conversation with Eleanor Evans Medina, creator of the Makaranda Method.

We explore a different way of understanding anxiety - one that goes beyond mindset and looks at how stress and emotional overwhelm show up in the body. Eleanor shares how learning to listen to the body can create more clarity, steadiness, and a sense of safety over time.

This conversation is also the perfect introduction to The Genetic Detox Protocol - a new limited-time offer I created in partnership with Eleanor.

Here's what it includes: you get a detox genetics panel (the same one I ran on myself) that shows you which detox pathways are genetically slow in YOUR body, why past protocols haven't worked, and which supplements will actually help. Then you get a 60-minute session with me where I decode your results, explain what it all means for your health, and create your personalized detox plan. PLUS you get a 60-minute session with Eleanor for nervous system and somatic support - because detox isn't just physical. When your body clears toxins, emotions surface. And without tools to move through that, most people quit halfway through.

If you often feel overwhelmed, stuck in your head, or disconnected from your body, this episode offers a gentle and thoughtful perspective.

In this episode, we talk about:

• What the Makaranda Method is and how it supports body awareness
• Why anxiety is often experienced physically, not just mentally
• The role of somatic practices in feeling more grounded
• Simple tools you can begin exploring right away
• How The Genetic Detox Protocol supports both physical detox and emotional regulation

In this episode, Sophie chats with Dr. Carolyn Dean, the OG expert on magnesium and mineral health. They break down why so many women feel exhausted, anxious, foggy, or “off” hormonally and how a lot of it actually comes back to simple mineral deficiencies.

Dr. Dean also shares why most magnesium supplements don’t work well, what to look for instead, and how minerals play a much bigger role in thyroid and adrenal health than most people realize.

If you’ve been dealing with low energy, thyroid symptoms, burnout, PMS, or just not feeling like yourself, this conversation will make so many things click.

You’ll hear about:

• How magnesium impacts thyroid and hormones

• Why stress drains your minerals fast

• What poor absorption looks like in real life

• Simple things you can do to start feeling better

A super grounding, eye opening chat you’ll want to re-listen to.

Sophie sits down with Erika Gray, co-founder of Toolbox Genomics, to break down how your genes affect detoxification, your ability to clear hormones, toxins, histamine, caffeine, and more.

They talk about what happens when detox pathways run too fast or too slow, why environment matters just as much as genetics, and how understanding your unique blueprint can make detox and supplementation actually work better.

Sophie also shares details about their new collaboration, where you can run your Detoxification Panel through Toolbox Genomics and get a personalized detox plan created just for you.

In this episode, Sophie shares how she's approaching Black Friday and Cyber Monday differently this year - no manufactured urgency, no countdown timers, no "buy now or regret it forever" energy. Just real offers to make her work more accessible.

She's never really done Black Friday before because it always felt icky. But this year, she realized these sales events can be about making meaningful support available - not manipulation.

Sophie walks through two limited-spot offers she's putting on sale for the first time, plus her favorite wellness brands running their own Black Friday deals.

Thyroid Health Breakthrough & Audit Call

 (November 20-22, 5 spots only, $111) A 60-minute one-on-one call where Sophie does holistic health triage. Before you even meet, you upload your complete health history and any old labs - Sophie reviews everything so she's already connecting dots when you get on the call. Then she creates a completely personalized action plan for YOUR body, YOUR history, YOUR life. This isn't a rushed 15-minute appointment where you leave feeling more confused. This is deep work with someone who's been exactly where you are.

Why only 5 spots? Because these calls take significant energy and preparation. Sophie can only do them well for a handful of women at a time. It's about quality, not quantity.

Use code: BFBREAKTHROUGH

HTMA Mineral Reset

(November 24-28, 10 spots, $444) Includes the full HTMA test, Sophie's comprehensive review, a 60-minute call with her, your personalized supplement/nutrition/lifestyle protocol, PLUS one month of messaging support AND access to the Mineral Momentum Group Coaching Call in January ($197 value).

If you've been curious about your minerals - if you're dealing with fatigue, hair loss, anxiety, insomnia, weight gain, thyroid issues - this is your sign. Your HTMA will show Sophie exactly what's going on at a cellular level, and she'll create a plan that actually works for your body.

Use code: BFSHETALKSHTMA

Sophie’s Favorite Wellness Brands

Sophie's favorite wellness brands (SaunaSpace, Purity Coffee, Paleo Valley, QuickSilver Scientific, and more) are running their own Black Friday sales. She's created a resource page with all her trusted companies and exclusive discount codes in one place. Many of these brands are offering sales on top of her codes - so you're getting the best possible pricing.

No pressure. No gross sales tactics. Just tools and support if you're ready to invest in your health.

In this episode of SHE Talks Health, Sophie Shepherd wraps up her Thyroid Thursday mini-series by breaking down the three foundational labs she believes every woman should start with:

• Functional Blood Chemistry Panel – uncover nutrient deficiencies, thyroid markers, and inflammation with tighter functional ranges.
• GI Map Stool Test – detect pathogens, gut inflammation, and gluten sensitivity.
• HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) – identify stress patterns, adrenal function, and mineral imbalances.

Sophie also dives into optional advanced tests (like Organic Acids and Mycotoxins), plus simple at-home tools such as basal body temperature and resting pulse tracking to monitor thyroid function naturally.

If you’re ready to stop guessing and get real answers, Sophie shares how her She Thrives One-to-One Coaching Program combines these labs with customized protocols, coaching, and support to create a holistic roadmap for thyroid recovery.
