  • 112. Struggling to Lose Weight? How Hormones, Stress & Metabolism Impact Fat Loss (And How to Fix It!)

    112. Struggling to Lose Weight? How Hormones, Stress & Metabolism Impact Fat Loss (And How to Fix It!)
    May 6 2025

    Ever feel crushing fatigue, stubborn belly weight, or energy crashes no matter how “clean” you eat? Let’s sort out the confusion around weight-loss resistance, hormone balance, gut health, and a metabolism that suddenly won’t cooperate—especially in perimenopause when brain fog, IBS-style bloating, and low energy can gang-up on you.

    Today I walk you through the hidden hormone signals that turn calories into cling-on fat (yes, even if you’re fasting, counting macros, or exercising harder) —so you can finally drop the frustration along with the extra pounds. ​

    What we cover in this episode

    • The cortisol trap that stores fat around your organs—and the simple nightly shift that starts reversing it.

    • A subtle estrogen-progesterone imbalance that can tank metabolism in perimenopause and why blood tests often miss it.

    • Why “eat less, move more” backfires when thyroid conversion stalls (hint: it’s not just about calories).

    • A protein-fiber combo that smooths blood-sugar spikes and steadies energy without crash diets.

    You’ll walk away knowing what hormone patterns sabotage weight-loss, why stress and sleep set the stage for belly fat, and which lab clues flag hidden insulin resistance—so you can tune into the full episode for the “how” and put each fix into action. Expect to reclaim energy, clear brain fog, and see the scale move in the right direction while supporting gut and digestive health along the way.

  • 111. Fatigue, Bloating & Brain Fog: How to Reset Your Hormones & Energy Fast with Dr. Tricia Pingel

    111. Fatigue, Bloating & Brain Fog: How to Reset Your Hormones & Energy Fast with Dr. Tricia Pingel
    Apr 22 2025
    “Is Stress the Real Reason You Can’t Lose Weight or Heal Your Gut?” Are you constantly battling fatigue, weight loss resistance, hormone imbalance, or relentless brain fog—and wondering why nothing is working, even though you're doing all the “right” things? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tricia Pingel to unpack one of the most overlooked but powerful drivers of chronic symptoms: cortisol. We explore how the stress response hijacks your metabolism, messes with your hormones, disrupts your digestion, and can even trigger histamine intolerance and immune system reactivity. If you’re in perimenopause, struggling with IBS, feel stuck despite healthy eating and workouts, or just can’t figure out why your energy has tanked, this conversation is for you. You’ll walk away with fresh insight into how your body is not broken—it’s protecting you. And there’s a way out. Key Points: The stress-hormone connection that’s wrecking your metabolism and gut health—without you even realizing it. A subtle hormone shift that might explain your energy crashes, and how to fix it without coffee. Why your IBS, histamine issues, or food reactions aren’t always about the food—and what to focus on instead. The surprising link between perimenopause and your adrenal response (plus why fasting could be backfiring). What You’ll Learn Inside the Episode: We talk about how adrenal fatigue often sneaks up on the most driven, type-A women—the ones powering through life, checking every box, and still feeling awful. Dr. Pingel explains why your body stores fat in a stressed state (especially around the midsection), how perceived stress—not just actual events—triggers hormonal chaos, and what’s really happening in your immune system when you react to the same food one day but not the next. She also walks us through her four-pillar approach to adrenal healing: Functional nutrition that supports cortisol regulation Movement that calms the nervous system rather than overwhelms it Strategic supplementation, including specific vitamins and adaptogens Mind-body rewiring to shift your stress response for good We get into the mindset blocks that keep you stuck in burnout, the dangerous myth of pushing harder to get results, and how joy, boundaries, and nervous system regulation can transform your gut, hormones, and energy levels more than any diet or detox ever will. Fatigue, hormone imbalance, and gut symptoms don’t always mean something’s “broken”—they often mean your body’s under-protected and overstimulated. You can shift your biology by shifting your stress response. This episode offers a roadmap for how to do exactly that, starting with how you think, move, eat, and prioritize yourself. If you’ve tried everything and still don’t feel better, this might just be the missing piece. Struggling with bloating, IBS, constipation, fatigue, brain fog, or hormone imbalance?

  • 110. Iodine & Hormone Balance: The overlooked Link to Thyroid, Metabolism & Energy

    110. Iodine & Hormone Balance: The overlooked Link to Thyroid, Metabolism & Energy
    Apr 8 2025
    The Hidden Key to Hormone Balance—Why Iodine Matters More Than You Think Are you struggling with fatigue, weight loss resistance, brain fog, or stubborn digestive issues? Have you ever considered that an iodine deficiency might be behind it? Iodine plays a crucial role in hormone balance, metabolism, and thyroid function, yet it’s often overlooked. Many people don’t realize that low iodine levels can contribute to symptoms like IBS, perimenopause struggles, and even estrogen dominance—leading to heavy periods, mood swings, and low energy. In this episode, we dive into the little-known ways iodine impacts your health—from supporting thyroid hormones to protecting your brain and metabolism. If you’re feeling stuck with frustrating symptoms and haven’t found answers, it’s time to consider this missing mineral. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The shocking connection between iodine and hormone balance—and why most people aren’t getting enough. How iodine deficiency could be behind your fatigue, weight struggles, and brain fog—plus simple ways to check your levels. The hidden reason your metabolism may be slowing down—and how iodine plays a role in digestion, IBS, and gut health. Why too much iodine can backfire—especially if you have Hashimoto’s or other thyroid issues. Why This Episode Matters for You: If you've been frustrated by low energy, hormonal imbalances, or unexplained weight gain, you need to know how iodine plays a role in balancing estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Plus, it helps detox harmful halogens like fluoride and bromine, which can disrupt your thyroid and metabolism. We’ll also talk about the best iodine-rich foods (hint: it’s not just iodized salt) and what to look for when considering supplements. Ready to take control of your hormone health?
