In this episode, Dr. Sara Pugh and I have a laid-back, unscripted conversation about a variety of health topics. We dive into the benefits and limitations of using collagen, particularly for joint pain.

I share my personal experiences with low estrogen and how turning 45 changed my perspective on health issues like joint pain.

We also talk about the importance of circadian biology and quantum health, sharing how changing my diet and lifestyle helped me overcome fertility issues and mental health struggles, including my previous use of medications like benzodiazepines.

Dr. Sara and I discuss the misconceptions around hormone replacement therapy and why it's crucial to understand your genetic makeup before diving into any treatment.

We both agree on the importance of basic, cost-effective wellness practices like spending time in natural light, grounding, and maintaining a seasonal diet. Throughout the episode, we touch on personal anecdotes and emphasize the need for a holistic, personalized approach to health.

Topics Discussed:

→ Collagen – what it really helps with (and what it doesn’t)

→ The truth behind cellulite, lipedema, and body image pressures

→ Hormone chaos in perimenopause: estrogen, progesterone & testosterone

→ Why one-size-fits-all HRT can be risky (and how to test properly)

→ Cold plunges, circadian biology & the power of seasonal eating

→ Mental health, addiction, and finding balance with quantum wellness
