Critical Conversations about Women's Health & Wellness | Nutrition & Supplements | Holistic

When your body hits "total meltdown," it can feel like every system is breaking at once. Your energy is gone, your mind is foggy, and even small daily tasks feel impossible. In this powerful conversation, Dr. Carolyn Dean shares what decades of medical and naturopathic practice have taught her about preventing and reversing a full-body crash. You'll discover the four key systems that keep your body stable (think of them as the legs of a stool), why perimenopause isn't always what you think it is, the simple nutrient changes that can help you regain your footing, and the first actions you can take today to begin repairing from the inside out. From magnesium and mineral balance to adrenal support and blood sugar stability, Dr. Dean offers practical, hope-filled strategies you can start right now. If you or someone you love feels like their health has collapsed under stress, chronic illness, or hormonal changes, this episode will help you see a way forward one step at a time.  More About Dr. Carolyn Dean, MD, ND Back in 2004, Dr. Dean became a best-selling author when she wrote, The Magnesium Miracle® which is one of the most highly referenced publications on magnesium by both health care practitioners and consumers alike. She's never looked back, since, devoting her career to developing research and innovative formulations around magnesium to support health at every stage. You'll love Dr. Dean's holistic approach, where she believes in the body's innate ability to heal when given proper support. We know you'll learn so much from her today!

Is your brain starving for fuel or for hope? In Part 2 of our conversation with researcher Martha Carlin, we go beyond the science into something even deeper, including glucose, faith, and healing from the inside out! We tackle: What unstable blood sugar is doing to your brain and how glucose resistance and hypoglycemia can exacerbate symptoms and accelerate disease progression in your brain. Why your cravings might be a cry for minerals. And how faith and belief create healing changes in the nervous system. ⠀ Whether you're navigating Parkinson's or just want to support someone who is, this conversation is rich in practical tools and powerful reminders that you are more than your diagnosis. This is Part 2 of a 2-Part Series. Jump back for Part 1 with Martha last week all about the major things we're missing in doctor's offices and the hidden role of stress in Parkinson's. https://bit.ly/marthacarlinpart1 To work with Heather or Jennifer on a Parkinson's protocol that supports your clinical care, email info@shechangeseverything.com.  MORE ABOUT THE PROBIOTIC MARTHA DEVELOPED (SUGAR SHIFT): Try the Probiotics: https://bit.ly/biotiquestprobiotics DISCOUNT CODE: SHECHANGES for 10% off your order!

We've been told Parkinson's is just a dopamine problem. It's not. This week on the podcast, we're joined by Martha Carlin—systems thinker, microbiome expert, and someone who has spent the last 20+ years trying to understanding the brain and the gut after her husband's Parkinson's diagnosis in his 40's. ⠀ In Part 1 of this series, we go beyond what doctors are asking—and dig into what really matters for our brains: stress, the microbiome, mineral balance, and a newly discovered protective layer you've never heard of (but need to know about).  ⠀ Listen now to uncover the real drivers of health decline and Parkinson's—and why they're being missed in medical care. From the gut-brain connection to the overlooked stress-microbiome loop, and the underappreciated role of electrolytes and mineral balance, this episode redefines what we think we know about Parkinson's. And it might just change how you care for the body you have—today. If you or someone you love is navigating Parkinson's, this conversation is a must-listen. It's science, soul, and most importantly, full of hope. This is Part 1 of a 2-Part Series. Tune in for Part 2 with Martha next week all about how glucose, minerals, and spirituality can dramatically change Parkinson's outcomes.

Part 3 of the Intensity Series What if the advice millions of people with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and energy-limiting conditions were given about getting stronger—"push yourself a little more," "stay positive," "build it up slowly"—wasn't just unhelpful, but dangerously wrong? What if pacing alone wasn't enough? What if mindset wasn't the real problem? What if your crashes weren't your fault—but the result of missing the real science inside your body? In Part 3 of our Intensity Series, we uncover why everything we believed about rebuilding after chronic fatigue, PEM, Long COVID, and deep exhaustion has been backward—and how a smarter, science-backed strategy can change your story. Even if you don't have these conditions, you'll understand why research is always behind and why you always have to question everything when you're healing from or living with a chronic condition. It's quite the story!

Part 1 of the Intensity Series In this three-part series, we're unpacking one of the most powerful yet misunderstood tools in wellness: intensity. It's key to rebuilding strength, protecting bones, boosting energy, and keeping your independence—but it works better when it's matched to the season of life or health you're in. That's why this couldn't be a one-size-fits-all conversation. It had to be a series. Because what works for a 35-year-old won't work for someone recovering from fatigue or managing chronic illness—and it definitely won't work for the 70-year-old dealing with joint pain or slower recovery. If this is you or someone you deeply love, this conversation will change everything!  In Part 1, we're focus on older adults and what happens when your Energy Fuse—your body's ability to handle effort and recover—starts to shift with age. You'll learn: Why intensity is essential (not optional) after 60  How to start training without soreness or setbacks to make intensity feel less risky. The science behind why your body needs longer rest—but still responds beautifully to the right kind of challenge And how to rebuild confidence, one gentle dial turn at a time. You don't need to go harder. You just need a better plan that respects your energy fuse and season of life. The results are beyond incredible. This episode is for anyone over 60—or for anyone who is caring for someone who is over 60 and has a loved one in that age bracket. This conversation will help you stay strong, steady, and in control of your health without injury or burning out and getting weaker.  RELATED EPISODES:  🎧 Episode #114: The Hidden Reason Your Workouts Leave You Chronically Tired —and How to Finally Protect Your Energy 🎧 Episode #113: Intensity: The Self-Care Move Most Women Are Missing & How to Get Started Safely This episode tells you have to get started!  Learn Something?
