The Thyroid (and Hormone) Fixer Podcast: Thyropause, Menopause, Metabolism and How to Fix It

In this episode, I’m talking honestly about why so many patients leave doctor’s appointments feeling dismissed, unheard, or stuck in a cycle of “normal labs” despite ongoing symptoms. I walk through the structural issues inside both conventional and functional medicine that shape how providers diagnose, prescribe, and communicate with patients, especially when it comes to thyroid and hormone health. From insurance reimbursement models and medical school training to pharmaceutical influence and malpractice fears, I explain why many well-meaning doctors still operate inside rigid systems that leave little room for nuance, curiosity, or individualized care.

I also discuss the growing frustrations patients experience when navigating chronic and complex conditions, and why symptoms are often minimized when they don’t fit neatly inside standard lab ranges or insurance-approved treatment protocols.

What you’ll learn:

If you’ve ever felt frustrated trying to get answers about your health, this episode will give you more context for how these systems operate and why so many patients feel stuck navigating them.

I sit down with wellness coach and former QVC host Kerstin Lindquist to unpack the hidden ways stress is silently destroying women’s health. From dementia and hormone imbalance to gut issues, weight gain, burnout, and sleep disruption, we connect the dots between the nervous system, the brain, and the body in a way every woman needs to hear. Kerstin shares the heartbreaking story of losing her mother to stress induced dementia and how that experience completely transformed the way she approaches health, rest, and healing.

We dive into the dangerous “hurry culture” women are trapped in, why rest feels so uncomfortable for so many of us, and how fear and overcontrol may actually be blocking healing in the body. We also talk about the biohacking obsession happening in midlife women right now and why more is not always better when it comes to fasting, cold plunges, supplements, and stress on the body.

What you’ll learn:

This is one of those conversations I truly believe every woman needs to hear and share.

In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Taz Bhatia to unpack her deeply personal journey from being a conventional ER physician dismissed by the very medical system she worked in, to becoming one of the leading voices in integrative medicine. After struggling with hair loss, weight gain, brain fog, PCOS, hypothyroidism, and years of medical gaslighting, Dr. Taz realized the answer was never going to come from a one size fits all prescription pad. 

Together, we dive into the real root causes behind hormone dysfunction, the dangerous “cortisol loop” keeping so many women inflamed and exhausted, and why your gut may be the missing piece no one has looked at yet.

We also get into some seriously fascinating territory around the emotional and energetic side of healing, including the connection between thyroid disease and the throat chakra, why so many women lose their voice before they lose their health, and how ancient medicine may have understood the body better than we do today. 

What you’ll learn:

Healing is not supposed to happen in isolation, and conversations like this are how we start changing the future of women’s health together.

This episode is going to challenge everything you thought you knew about “natural” thyroid medication. In this conversation, I unpack why NDT medications like Armour Thyroid, NP Thyroid, and compounded T4/T3 can actually make some people feel worse instead of better, even when they seem to help at first. 

I walk through the hidden issues that many practitioners miss, including reverse T3 problems, poor T4 to T3 conversion, autoimmune flare-ups, and the dangers of being stuck on doses that are too low to truly optimize your thyroid. If you’ve been told your labs are “fine” while your symptoms keep getting worse, this episode is going to connect a lot of dots for you. I also get real about the thyroid industry itself and explain why “natural” does not automatically mean better.

What you’ll learn:

My goal with this podcast is to empower you with the education and confidence to ask better questions, advocate for yourself, and finally understand what your body has been trying to tell you all along. Tune in now and let’s figure this out together.

If breakfast has become “optional” and food rules have left you more exhausted than empowered, this episode is going to completely flip the script on what lasting health actually looks like. In this conversation, I sit down with the founders of Trim Healthy Mama, Pearl Barrett and Serene Allison, to unpack the powerful message behind their new book Seven Skills for Lasting Health. We dive into why so many women are burned out from extreme dieting, fasting trends, and all-or-nothing thinking, and how developing sustainable “skills” instead of rigid rules can completely transform your metabolism, hormones, mindset, and relationship with food. 

What you’ll learn:

If you want to dive deeper into the seven skills we discussed today, grab the book and connect with Pearl and Serene through the links in the show notes. You do not have to live stuck in food confusion and metabolic burnout anymore. There is a gentler, sustainable path forward.

In this episode, I sit down with board certified endocrinologist Dr. Cassie Smith to unpack the powerful connection between your gut, hormones, metabolism, and overall health. We dive into why so many people are still struggling despite “normal labs,” why conventional medicine continues to miss key thyroid markers, and how gut dysfunction can quietly sabotage everything from T3 conversion to estrogen metabolism. Dr. Cassie shares her own story of being medically gaslit, dismissed, and forced to search for answers after Graves’ disease turned her life upside down, and how that journey completely transformed the way she practices medicine today.

We talk about reverse T3, leaky gut, autoimmune disease, estrogen dominance, cancer risk, thyroid medication misconceptions, and the frustrating “eat less, exercise more” advice that continues to fail women every day. Dr. Cassie also shares practical free strategies anyone can start implementing immediately to support healing and finally feel better.

In this episode, I’m sharing the biggest takeaways from my new book, The Thyroid Fix, and explaining why the thyroid is the true master switch behind hormones, metabolism, energy, and overall health. If you’ve tried the supplements, detoxes, gut healing protocols, or wellness trends and still don’t feel like yourself, this conversation is going to challenge everything you thought you knew about thyroid health.

I also dive into the symptoms most people overlook, why standard thyroid testing is failing so many patients, and how medical gaslighting keeps women suffering for years without answers. I break down the difference between “normal” and optimal lab ranges, why T4-only medication often leaves people feeling worse, and how personalized thyroid treatment can completely transform your energy, metabolism, confidence, and quality of life.

What you’ll learn:

If you’re ready to take a deeper dive into understanding your symptoms, labs, treatment options, and what real thyroid optimization looks like, make sure to grab a copy of The Thyroid Fix. I truly believe this information has the power to help you advocate for yourself, reclaim your energy, and finally start feeling like you again.

If you feel like you’re doing everything right and still can’t lose weight, this episode is going to hit you hard in the best way. In this conversation, I walk through the real reasons behind weight loss resistance and why it’s almost never as simple as calories in versus calories out. I break down how your thyroid, hormones, insulin, stress levels, and even your liver all play a role in whether your body burns fat or holds onto it.

I also dig into the biggest mistakes I see over and over again, from under-eating and overtraining to relying on trendy diets that backfire long term. We talk about what your body actually needs to feel safe enough to release weight, how to think about food beyond just calories, and why movement and muscle matter more than you’ve been told. If you’ve been stuck, frustrated, and questioning your body, this episode will help you start connecting the dots and finally understand what’s really going on. 

What you’ll learn:

If this episode resonates with you, start taking inventory of what your body might be trying to tell you and where you can make small, meaningful shifts. And if you know someone who feels stuck in their weight loss journey, share this episode with them. It could be the perspective shift they’ve been needing.

This might be the wake-up call your fatigue has been waiting for. In this episode, I’m breaking down the real reasons you feel exhausted all the time and why the answer isn’t always what you’ve been told. We go far beyond surface-level advice and dig into the root causes of fatigue, from thyroid optimization and hormone imbalances to hidden issues like low ferritin, poor sleep, adrenal dysfunction, and even mitochondrial health. I walk you through how to stop guessing and start identifying what’s actually going on in your body so you can finally make progress.

I also challenge the habits and “quick fixes” that might be keeping you stuck. We talk about how your nutrition, hydration, stimulants, and even your daily choices could be silently draining your energy. This episode is part education, part reality check, and all about empowering you to take control of what you can fix starting today. If you’re tired of being tired and ready to connect the dots your doctor may have missed, this conversation will give you a completely new lens on your energy, your health, and what’s actually possible for you.

What you’ll learn:

Your energy isn’t something you have to keep fighting for forever. When you address the root cause, everything changes. If you’re ready to feel like yourself again, this is your starting point.

Is what you’re feeling “just aging” or something deeper? If you’ve ever wondered that, this episode is going to completely reframe the way you see your body. In this conversation, I sit down with Andrea Donsky to unpack the real story behind perimenopause and menopause, and why so many women feel blindsided by symptoms they were never warned about. We dive into the surprising reality that there are over 100 possible symptoms, many of them mental and cognitive, and why fatigue, anxiety, brain fog, and sleep disruption often show up long before hot flashes ever do. I also explore the frustrating gap in care where women are dismissed or told everything is normal, and what that means for how we advocate for ourselves.

We go deeper into what is actually driving these symptoms, from blood sugar dysregulation and stress to nervous system overload and shifting hormones, and how all of it is more connected than you think. Andrea shares practical insights from her research and her book, including how nutrition, lifestyle, mindset, and even the way you think about your experience can dramatically impact how you move through this phase.

What you’ll learn:

You do not have to keep guessing, and you definitely do not have to keep suffering in silence. There is a different way to move through this, and it starts with understanding.
