  • Belly Fat, Inflammation and What's Driving Both
    Dec 15 2025

    In this episode, we're diving deep into one of the most requested topics: why so many women struggle with weight gain, hormonal shifts, and belly fat—especially as we move through our 40s, 50s, and beyond.

    Key Topics:

    • The real reasons behind changes in body composition and why "just doing more cardio" or "eating less" isn't the answer.

    • The importance of building muscle, not just losing weight, for a tighter midsection and overall health.

    • How lifestyle changes, hormonal fluctuations, and even being more sedentary than we realize can impact our results.

    • Why advanced training strategies and a focus on progressive overload are key for women who are already fit but not seeing the results they want.

    • The role of cortisol, stress, and recovery—including how to implement a "cortisol reset" and why rest days and nutrient timing matter.

    • Practical tips for structuring your training, dialing in your nutrition (yes, you probably need more carbs!), and staying consistent for long-term results.

    • My personal journey with body composition, muscle building, and the lessons I've learned through perimenopause and beyond.

    Let's dive in!

  • How I Reversed My Hair Loss At 42
    Nov 17 2025

    In this episode, I share my personal journey with hair loss, especially as I entered my 40s and began experiencing perimenopause. I discuss how hair loss became a powerful messenger about my overall health, not just a cosmetic concern.

    Key Topics Covered:

    • The critical role of estrogen and progesterone in hair growth and how hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause impact hair cycles.

    • My own experience with increased hair shedding, stress, and the realization that hair health reflects deeper systemic issues.

    • The importance of looking beyond surface solutions (like shampoos or supplements) and investigating root causes such as stress, thyroid function, mineral balance, and gut health.

    • The impact of chronic stress on nutrient depletion, thyroid health, and hair loss.

    • Why comprehensive testing (bloodwork, mineral analysis, gut health) can provide valuable insights.

    • The dangers of toxic hair and personal care products, and how to make safer choices.

    • Nutrition and lifestyle changes that made a difference for me: increasing protein and healthy carbs, using minerals and adaptogens, prioritizing rest, and reducing intense exercise during certain cycle phases.

    • Practical tips: scalp massage with oils, red light therapy, regular trims, and being gentle with hair care routines.

    • Encouragement for listeners: hair loss is not about vanity, but vitality. Don't give up—focus on restoring balance and supporting your body from within.

  • Wealthy Woman Standards
    Nov 10 2025

    In this episode, I dive into a topic inspired by a listener's question: What are the new standards for women who crave wealth? My own definition of wealth and success has evolved dramatically over the past few years, and I share how that journey has shaped my business, my mindset, and my life.

    Key Topics:

    • The difference between leadership and "CEO energy," and why they aren't the same thing

    • The myth of passive income and the realities of building sustainable, repeatable systems in business

    • Why it's essential to create a business model that matches who you are now—not who you used to be

    • The importance of profit over vanity metrics, and how to evaluate what's really working in your business

    • Letting go of industry standards and defining wealth on your own terms

    • The power of boundaries, clarity, and knowing what truly makes you feel wealthy (for me: time, space, support, and experiences)

    • The value of mentorship and support tailored to your unique energy and business model

  • 5 Things I Quit to Double My Business Revenue & Increase My Profit
    Oct 30 2025

    In this episode, I'm sharing a deeply personal look at the five key changes I made to double my revenue and increase profitability in my business—without burning out.

    Key Moments:

    • The real story behind my business growth: not just more revenue, but more sustainability and energy.

    • Why saying "no" to the wrong things was the first step to saying "hell yes" to the right opportunities.

    • How letting go of doing everything myself and building a supportive team changed everything.

    • The power of building repeatable systems instead of starting from scratch every time.

    • Why letting data (and my own energy) drive decisions led to smarter, not harder, growth.

    • The game-changing impact of investing in community, mentorship, and supportive relationships with other women in business.
