Are peptides the new fountain of youth or just another wellness fad? If you’ve been bombarded by celebrities, clinics, and biohackers hyping this “miracle” in women’s health, you’re not alone. So let’s cut through the noise together.

In this week’s episode, I sit back down with Katie Whelan, cofounder of Joi Women’s Wellness, to dive deep into what peptides are, why they matter, and how some of the top peptides can support women’s energy, metabolism, skin, gut health, and even recovery and libido. Katie shares the “cherry on top” approach to stacking peptides with hormone support (HRT), how to spot real peptide therapy versus risky knock-offs, and what symptoms signal it’s time to consider them.

If you want to know the simple steps you can take to cut through the overwhelm, practical ways to find the right peptides for you, and total clarity on how to get started safely, hit play and let’s dive in.

What if the symptoms you’re brushing off like fatigue, mood swings, and sleepless nights, aren’t just “normal stress,” but real signals your hormones are shifting? 

In this episode, I sit down with Katie Whalen, co-founder of Joi Women’s Wellness, to reveal what’s really happening as we move through perimenopause and menopause, and how hormone replacement therapy (HRT) could be the missing link to finally feeling like yourself again.

Ever feel like you’re doing everything “right” with your health and still can’t figure out why your period’s gone MIA? Or maybe you’re confused about what’s really going on post birth control and wonder if you’ll ever feel “normal” again.

In this episode, I sit back down with period recovery specialist Victoria Myers to unpack the overlooked signs of hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA), the science-backed practical strategies real women are using to regain their cycles and fertility naturally, and finally getting real answers when you’ve been dismissed or misunderstood. 

We’re digging into why so many women are told IVF is their only option, how to differentiate between HA and PCOS (and yes, you can have both), what labs and lifestyle tweaks actually matter, and exactly what it takes to feel safe in your body so your hormones and fertility can thrive. So if you’re ready to focus on the right changes to make your cycle regular again, even if you’ve struggled for years or lost hope, hit play and let’s dive in.

Is your missing period trying to tell you something bigger? If you’ve ever come off birth control only to find your cycle has vanished or you’ve spent years wondering why your period’s irregular despite doing everything “right,” this episode is for you.

I’m sitting down with period recovery specialist, Victoria Myers, to break down what’s actually happening inside your body when HA strikes, why it’s so easily misdiagnosed by doctors, and how even the healthiest-seeming habits can throw your hormones off track. Plus, Victoria shares the critical (but rarely discussed) first steps you need to take to start advocating for your own reproductive health.

You’ll walk away from this episode armed with clarity, hope, and the exact labs and questions to take to your doctor so you can finally get answers, not just more prescriptions.

No one tells you that after weaning, your hormones can crash so hard it feels like you’re drowning in your own body. One week post-breastfeeding, I hit a wall of exhaustion and sadness I never saw coming until I discovered it’s a real, biological phenomenon called post-weaning hormonal withdrawal.

In this episode, I share my personal journey through the emotional and physical rollercoaster of weaning, unpack the science behind why these symptoms hit so hard, and reveal the actionable steps, supplements, and mindset shifts that helped me finally find relief. If you’re a mom (or know one) preparing to drop those last feeds, this is the reality check and survival guide nobody talks about.

You’ll leave this episode feeling validated, informed, and ready to navigate weaning with clarity and confidence—no more shame, fear, or confusion about the wild ride your hormones take. Hit play and let’s dive in.

Can you really lose weight while breastfeeding without risking your milk supply? If you’re overwhelmed by the bounce-back pressure and terrified you’ll have to choose between your body and your baby, this episode is for you. 

I sit down with Gabby, a past client of our Macro Accelerator program who lost over twelve pounds and ten inches in sixteen weeks while maintaining her milk supply—yes, for real.

We dive deep into PCOS, irregular cycles, and the fear we all feel around dieting during postpartum. Gabby and I break down the biggest myths about carbs, fats, and fueling your body for hormone health. You’ll hear how she shifted her mindset, built her plate (and her life) so the changes actually stuck, and what sustainable steps made all the difference, including how to balance imperfect days, navigate family meals, and finally break up with bounce-back culture.

If you’re ready to stop picking between your goals and your baby, I promise you’ll walk away with total confidence in what’s possible for your health. Hit play and let’s dive in.

What if your “off” days aren’t about hormones, diet, or stress, but something deeper—your inner climate? In this episode, I sit down with Ayurvedic expert Nidhi Pindya to break down why cold smoothies, apple cider vinegar, or even intermittent fasting might be pushing your body further out of balance rather than healing it. We dig into a refreshingly practical way to decode your symptoms and rethink wellness from the inside out, merging ancient wisdom with modern science so it actually fits your busy life.

You’ll discover the real story behind Ayurveda (and what it isn’t), how to actually identify your own “inner climate,” and why your morning routine and meals could be making or breaking your energy, digestion, and moods. Nidhi’s guidance will help you spot which mainstream wellness hacks work for you…and which you 100% should ignore. Plus, you’ll walk away with simple daily rituals designed to bring you back to that sweet spot of warmth, moisture, and flow.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have a fresh lens on wellness that’s grounded, doable, and way more connected to your actual needs—not just trending advice. If you’re ready to ditch “one-size-fits-all” health advice and tap into a system that meets you where you are, hit play and let’s dive in.

Are you secretly running on anxiety, even as everyone praises your productivity, drive, and ability to “do it all”? I’m joined by an award-winning psychologist, Dr. Lalitaa Suglani, who breaks down the difference between being simply driven and silently battling high-functioning anxiety—a line so thin, most of us don’t even realize we’ve crossed it.

We’ll dive deep into what high-functioning anxiety really is, how it hides behind ambition, and why so many busy, successful women are silently caught in its grip. Dr. Lalitaa reveals how childhood patterns might still be running the show, why saying “yes” is sometimes a sign you’re feeling “not enough,” and how external success can actually keep you stuck in survival mode. 

You’ll find out what high-functioning anxiety really looks like from the inside out, how it might be showing up in your body, and the practical next steps to help you break free from the overwhelming cycle without sacrificing your ambition or success. 

By the end of the episode, you’ll have the tools to start drawing boundaries and understanding your triggers so you can stay ambitious without the constant wave of stress, guilt, or shame. Hit play and let’s dive in.

Should you really be changing your workouts based on your menstrual cycle, or is “cycle syncing” just another wellness trend flooding your feed?

In this Q&A episode, I’m answering Michelle’s question and diving deep into the science, myths, and influencer advice behind cycle syncing your workouts. You’ll learn what the latest evidence really says about training during the follicular, ovulatory, luteal, and menstrual phases, and whether it can actually boost your strength, physique, and energy, or if it’s all hype. I break it all down into practical, easy-to-apply steps that will help you tune into your own biofeedback and get clarity beyond the social media noise.
