  • Lose the Weight Loss Meds with Dr. James Hill

    Lose the Weight Loss Meds with Dr. James Hill
    Dec 17 2025
    When coming off weight loss medications, how can you prevent your appetite from surging? Also, how can you keep the weight off? In this episode, I explore with Dr. James Hill what really keeps weight off for good. We break down why the strategies that help you lose weight are not the same strategies that help you maintain it, especially in the era of GLP-1 medications. Together, we uncover the science-backed habits and mindset shifts that can help you create a lifestyle that supports your healthiest, happiest self for life. Dr. James Hill is a world-renowned obesity researcher who’s spent over 40 years studying how people lose weight, and more importantly, how they keep it off. He’s the co-founder of the National Weight Control Registry and author of a new book that helps people transition off GLP-1 medications without regaining weight, all delivered with his signature clarity, compassion, and common sense. What you’ll learn: (05:01) Why only about 20% of people keep weight off long-term and why this number may be even lower. (08:19) Why weight loss and weight maintenance require completely different strategies. (11:22) How GLP-1 medications have changed the landscape by helping more people finally reach their goal weight. (12:17) The three pillars of long-term weight maintenance: appetite management, physical activity, and mind state. (14:38) Why pairing high protein intake with resistance training helps protect muscle and improves metabolic health. (22:22) How “mind state” influences your ability to overcome setbacks. (31:26) Why successful maintainers average around 12,000 steps a day and schedule one hour of planned exercise daily. (35:30) The early signs of weight regain. Love the podcast?

  • Foods I Eat EVERY DAY As a Nutrition Expert

    Foods I Eat EVERY DAY As a Nutrition Expert
    Dec 15 2025
    How can the foods you choose each day shape your long-term health and vitality? Also, what simple nutrition principles do I rely on that can help you feel stronger and more energized? In this episode, I break down the exact foods I eat every day, and why the old ideas of “good days,” “bad days,” or “cheating” set you up for failure. I walk you through my personal food rules, including why protein comes first, why fiber is a non-negotiable, and how healthy fats and hydration shape your hormones, metabolism, and energy. What you’ll learn: (02:42) Protein’s role in muscle maintenance, metabolism, and blood sugar stability. (05:04) Why animal proteins have a superior amino acid profile. (10:50) How fiber regulates hunger, blood sugar, gut health, and metabolic function, and why most women need far more. (15:26) Daily non-starchy vegetables, slow-low carbs, and the phytonutrients that I prioritize for optimal energy. (17:46) Why healthy fats don’t make you fat and how to choose anti-inflammatory everyday fats. (20:33) How omega-3s support muscle, brain function, hormone balance, and long-term metabolic health. (28:52) The importance of electrolytes, hydration, and key micronutrients like magnesium and taurine for cellular health. Love the podcast? Here’s what to do: Subscribe to the podcast.

  • Why Heart Disease Is the Number One Killer of Women with Dr. Jayne Morgan

    Why Heart Disease Is the Number One Killer of Women with Dr. Jayne Morgan
    Dec 10 2025
    Are you overlooking early symptoms of heart disease because they don’t look “typical”? In this episode, I chat with Dr. Jayne Morgan—one of the world’s leading voices in women’s cardiology—about the number one killer of women: heart disease. She explains how pregnancy complications, hormonal transitions, and overlooked symptoms silently raise risk long before most women ever get screened. Together, we break down what tests matter, what symptoms never to ignore, and how every woman can take charge of her cardiovascular health starting now. Dr. Jayne Morgan is a powerhouse cardiologist on a mission to revolutionize women’s heart health with clarity and honesty. She’s also a Pilates instructor, a fierce educator, and one of the few women boldly challenging the blind spots in traditional cardiology training. What you’ll learn: (01:52) Why heart disease—not breast cancer—is the number one killer of women and why most women never see it coming. (04:29) How Dr. Morgan realized women’s symptoms were dismissed as “atypical,” leading to delayed care and missed diagnoses. (07:26) The subtle early symptoms women experience—fatigue, jaw pain, nausea, shortness of breath—that are often confused for anxiety. (13:38) How pregnancy complications can sometimes predict future heart disease risk. (15:21) Why combining cardiology and obstetrics is essential. (26:39) What happens to heart disease risk during perimenopause and menopause. (37:11) Why movement—not formal “exercise”—is one of the most impactful daily habits for reducing heart disease risk. (45:08) Which tests every woman should ask for, including calcium scoring, thyroid panels, and cholesterol markers. Love the podcast? Here’s what to do: Subscribe to the podcast. Leave a review.
