In this deeply personal solo episode, I open up about the recent loss of my beloved puppy and the profound impact that trauma and stress can have on our bodies—especially for women over 40. I share my own journey through grief, explaining how sudden emotional events can trigger hormonal changes, insulin resistance, and shifts in body composition, even when diet and exercise remain consistent.
Key Moments:
The science behind how trauma and stress affect hormones, metabolism, and weight
Why “calories in, calories out” doesn’t tell the whole story for women in perimenopause and menopause
Real-life examples from my clients on overcoming plateaus and health setbacks
Actionable strategies for restoring balance: prioritizing sleep, managing stress, adjusting macros, and supporting blood sugar
The importance of self-compassion, resilience, and listening to your body during difficult times
