Healthy Skeptics

Summary: In this episode, we break down the real reason so many women feel tired, bloated, anxious, and like nothing they do is working, even when they're eating clean, working out, and investing in supplements or testing. We explain how chronic stress and survival mode have rewired your body and metabolism to cope, not heal, and how this shows up as hormone chaos, weight gain, fatigue, and burnout. We also talk about why waiting for the “perfect time” to focus on your health only makes things worse, and how Restore30 was designed to meet women in the middle of real life, chaotic, busy, and messy. You don’t need more rules—you need a reset that works with your nervous system, not against it.

You’ve been told you're a people pleaser—but what if you’re actually a peacekeeper? In this episode of Healthy Skeptics, Dr. Michele and Kate call B.S. on the idea that staying quiet and keeping the peace is just part of being a “good woman.” Because guess what? Constantly avoiding conflict and swallowing your needs isn’t noble—it’s exhausting. This episode exposes the toll that peacekeeping takes on your body, your health, and your sense of self. It’s time to stop confusing silence with strength. If you're ready to break the cycle and speak up—for your health, your relationships, and your future—hit play now. Top 5 Takeaways from the Episode: 1. Peacekeeping isn’t the same as people pleasing. One seeks approval— the other avoids conflict. And that constant avoidance can quietly drain your energy and well-being. 2. Your nervous system registers suppression as a threat. Staying silent, swallowing your needs, and pretending everything’s fine keeps your body in a state of chronic stress—even if you think you're being “calm.” 3. Avoidance doesn’t make things go away—it makes them grow. What we push down often shows up in other ways: anxiety, exhaustion, gut issues, resentment, even hormonal imbalances. 4. Social norms train women to peacekeep. Many of us learned early on that our role was to be easygoing, agreeable, and “low maintenance”—but it’s time to unlearn that. 5. Healing starts with awareness. The first step is noticing where you’ve been quiet just to keep things comfortable, and then slowly creating space to express, feel, and reconnect with what you need.

Think you're getting the full story on vaccines and immunity? In this episode, we pull back the curtain on what's left out of the classroom—and why it matters more than ever. In this episode of Healthy Skeptics, Dr. Michele and Kate unpack a heated topic: the current state of medical education—and what happens when critical thinking is replaced with compliance. Sparked by a nursing assignment that pushed a one-sided narrative on vaccines, they dive into the deeper issue of how future health professionals are being trained. The conversation spans everything from the misunderstood controversy around Andrew Wakefield, to the media’s role in shaping public health opinion, to why natural immunity and immune resilience deserve more airtime. They also explore the unintended consequences of our hyper-sanitized, germ-averse world—and why it might be hurting our kids more than helping them. If you’ve ever felt like you’re only hearing one side of the story when it comes to health and vaccines, this is the open, respectful conversation you’ve been looking for. Key Takeaways: Medical education often discourages independent thought in favor of scripted narratives. Vaccine conversations are rarely balanced, leaving out key facts about natural immunity and risk. Andrew Wakefield’s research may have been misrepresented—and the fallout reshaped public trust. Sensational media headlines distort complex public health issues. Over-sanitization and reduced exposure to everyday microbes may weaken children’s immune systems. Not all vaccines provide lasting immunity, raising questions about long-term effectiveness. Health literacy is essential—especially for older generations relying on institutional advice. We need space for open dialogue, respectful disagreement, and informed decision-making.

If you’ve been doing all the “right” things—clean eating, taking supplements, switching to non-toxic everything—but still feel exhausted, off, or stuck, this episode is the one you can’t skip.In this candid conversation, Kate and Dr. Michele open up about their own struggles, the reality of hitting a wall in your wellness journey, and why Restore30 was born out of personal frustration with one-size-fits-all health advice. They get brutally honest about hormonal myths, the hidden ways stress derails your health, and how self-care has become a watered-down buzzword (that actually matters more than ever). Plus, they debunk some popular "wellness" myths (spoiler: your dish soap isn’t the root cause of your burnout), and explore why accountability—not perfection—is the secret to lasting change. If you’re tired of surface-level solutions and ready to face the real stuff that moves the needle, this episode is for you.

Today, we’re throwing out the script and getting real about food—the pressure, the cravings, the so-called ‘healthy’ choices, and why we all need to rethink the way we eat. If you’ve ever felt judged for your car snacks while trying to be the ‘salad girl’ at lunch, this episode is for you. Dr. Michele & Kate are breaking down how food guilt, body image, and social pressure shape our eating habits more than we realize—and why it’s time to stop obsessing over ‘good’ and ‘bad’ foods. Takeaways from this episode: Car Snacks vs. Salads—Why One Isn’t ‘Better’ Than the Other Food Guilt Is Holding You Back—Here’s How to Let It Go Cravings Aren’t Random—They’re Your Body Talking Emotional Eating Isn’t Bad—It’s Just Misunderstood Social Pressure & Diet Culture—Why Women Feel It More Listening to Your Body > Following Food Rules   For more information on Restore30 - our proven method for making you feel like yourself again: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.she-health.com/restore30⁠⁠ Visit our website at ⁠⁠⁠https://www.she-health.com⁠⁠⁠ and watch for our book release this summer!

In this episode, Dr. Michele + Kate take a skeptical deep dive into the trendy world of phototherapy and patching, exposing the wild claims, the shaky science, and the multi-level marketing (MLM) schemes driving the hype. Are these patches really activating stem cells and boosting testosterone, or are they just overpriced stickers riding the placebo effect? They break down: 🔬 What the real science says about phototherapy vs. what the patches claim to do. 💰 How MLMs use wellness buzzwords to push high-priced, questionable products. 🐴 The viral horse reaction videos—proof or just weird animal behavior? 🏋️‍♀️ Why real health solutions come from nutrition, movement, and lifestyle—not stickers. With humor, blunt honesty, and a no-B.S. approach, this episode encourages critical thinking and empowers listeners to make evidence-based health choices instead of falling for wellness fads. Key Takeaways: ✅ Patching claims to activate stem cells—but lacks real scientific backing. ✅ The placebo effect is powerful, making people think these patches work. ✅ MLMs use inflated pricing and emotional marketing to hook buyers. ✅ Animals don’t experience the placebo effect, so their reactions are intriguing. ✅ Strength training, movement, and whole foods are the real health boosters. ✅ Phototherapy has legitimate uses, but patches aren’t one of them. ✅ Skepticism is key—always follow the science, not the sales pitch. 🎧 Hit play and join us as we separate science from snake oil!

Summary: In this episode, Dr. Michele and Kate discuss the complexities of trauma and healing, challenging the notion that trapped trauma is the sole cause of health issues. They emphasize the importance of understanding the nervous system's role in healing and the need for a holistic approach that includes both physical and mental health. Adriana Mattingly, a clinical therapist, shares her insights on EMDR and somatic therapy, highlighting the significance of the present-moment awareness and resilience in navigating trauma. The conversation aims to debunk myths surrounding trauma work and promote a more nuanced understanding of mental health. Takeaways: Most women don't need to unpack more trauma; they need safety. Trauma is about the body's response, not just the event. Over-identifying with trauma can be harmful. Healing requires a foundation of safety in the body. EMDR and somatic therapy connect mind and body. Cognitive behavioral therapy often oversimplifies mental health. Resilience is key to managing stress and trauma. Cortisol is necessary for survival and function. Therapy should focus on adapting responses, not erasing emotions. Human experience includes a range of emotions, including anxiety.   Connect with Ms. Adriana Mattingly: To learn more or work with Adriana, visit www.wellnessbloomstherapy.com and submit a contact form.

Summary: In this Valentine's Day episode of the Healthy Skeptics podcast, Dr. Michele + Kate discuss the often-overlooked topic of vaginal health, emphasizing its connection to gut health. The conversation covers common myths about vaginal health, the importance of understanding the vaginal microbiome, and how diet and digestion play crucial roles in maintaining overall health. The episode also highlights the significance of testing for gut and vaginal health to identify issues and implement effective solutions. Takeaways: Vaginal health is often misunderstood and surrounded by myths. The vagina has a natural smell that is not floral or sweet. Gut health directly impacts vaginal health through the microbiome. Douching is unnecessary; the vagina is self-cleaning. Discharge is normal and varies with hormonal changes. Kegel exercises can help tone vaginal muscles. Lactobacillus is essential for maintaining vaginal pH. Stress can negatively affect digestion and vaginal health.

Summary: In this episode of Healthy Skeptics, Dr. Michele + Kate discusses the health trends that gained popularity in 2024, focusing on various products and their effectiveness. The conversation covers the benefits of matcha, the efficacy of cortisol-balancing supplements, the rise of high-frequency wands in skin care, and the realities of inhaling salts and lymphatic teas. They emphasize the importance of understanding the true benefits of these products and suggest prioritizing whole foods and lifestyle changes over expensive supplements. The episode concludes with a discussion on seabuckthorn and LED face masks, highlighting their potential benefits and misconceptions. Takeaways: Health products can be helpful but should be approached with caution. Matcha offers significant health benefits, especially for inflammation. Cortisol balancing supplements may not be effective without lifestyle changes. High frequency wands can reduce the appearance of breakouts but won't cure acne. Inhaling salts are primarily for aromatherapy and not a cure-all. Lymphatic teas are mostly diuretics and won't detoxify the body effectively. Seabuckthorn is a beneficial oil for skin health and inflammation. LED face masks can aid in cellular turnover but won't prevent wrinkles. Investing in whole foods is more beneficial than expensive supplements. Understanding individual needs is crucial when choosing health products.  

Summary In this conversation, Dr. Michele + Kate continue to explore the extreme health trends surrounding detoxification, particularly focusing on coffee enemas and their purported benefits. They discuss the origins of these practices, the science behind them, and the potential risks involved. The conversation also touches on practical tips for improving detoxification through diet and the importance of understanding bodily functions, such as vaginal discharge. Ultimately, the discussion emphasizes the need for critical thinking in the wellness industry and the importance of seeking professional guidance when necessary. Takeaways There's a lot of fear mongering about toxins in the wellness industry. Coffee enemas are popular but have questionable benefits. The Gerson therapy promotes extreme detox methods for cancer patients. Detoxification is primarily managed by the liver and kidneys. Regular use of enemas can lead to dependency and electrolyte imbalance. Fiber, bitter foods, and protein are essential for detoxification. Vaginal discharge is normal and varies throughout the menstrual cycle. Many extreme health trends lack scientific backing and can be harmful. It's crucial to seek professional help for persistent health issues. Critical thinking is necessary when evaluating health trends.   For more resources go to www.she-health.com/resources or visit our website at www.she-health.com Disclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.

Takeaways Personalized wellness is becoming more popular, but it needs to be approached carefully. Nervous system awareness is crucial for overall health and well-being.

Summary In this episode, Dr. Michele + Kate discuss the complexities of hormonal health, particularly focusing on the common misconceptions and practices surrounding hormone replacement therapy, birth control, and the role of adrenal health. The conversation highlights the quick-fix mentality prevalent in social media and medical practices, emphasizing the need for a deeper understanding of hormonal balance and the importance of addressing root causes rather than relying solely on medications. They advocate for a more holistic approach to women's health, encouraging listeners to engage in informed discussions with their healthcare providers. Takeaways Social media often provides generalized and confusing advice on hormonal health. Quick fixes for hormonal issues can lead to more significant health problems. Birth control is frequently prescribed as a band-aid solution without addressing root causes. Spironolactone is becoming more common but has serious long-term effects. Adrenal health is crucial for overall hormonal balance. Bioidentical hormones are marketed as natural but are still synthetic. Women are often disempowered by relying on medications for hormonal health. Understanding the body's communication is essential for effective hormonal treatment. Small, manageable lifestyle changes can lead to significant improvements in health. It's important to have informed conversations with healthcare providers about hormonal treatments For more resources go to www.she-health.com/resources or visit our website at www.she-health.com Disclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.

Summary In this episode, Dr. Michele + Kate discuss the pitfalls of traditional goal-setting in health and wellness. They emphasize the importance of understanding the root causes of health issues rather than merely chasing short-term goals. The conversation highlights the need for a mindset shift from fixing problems to exploring and understanding one's body. They advocate for long-term sustainability in health practices and encourage listeners to invest in their health journey by seeking deeper insights into their bodies' signals and needs. Takeaways Stop chasing goals; focus on understanding your body. Setting goals can lead to frustration and unfulfilled potential. Ask why your body is reacting a certain way, not just how to fix it. Health is a journey, not a destination. Explore your body without judgment to identify patterns. Sustainability in health practices is crucial for long-term success. Your body communicates through symptoms; listen to it. Lifestyle choices significantly impact health outcomes. Invest in understanding your health history for better results. Freedom comes from being in harmony with your body.

Summary In the inaugural episode of the Healthy Skeptics podcast, hosts Dr. Michele + Kate (a mother/daughter duo) delve into the complexities of hormonal health, challenging the oversimplified notion of 'balancing hormones.' They discuss the dynamic nature of hormones like cortisol, insulin, estrogen, and progesterone, emphasizing the importance of understanding their fluctuations rather than chasing static numbers. The conversation highlights the role of stress in hormonal responses and the psychological implications of striving for hormonal balance, ultimately advocating for a more nuanced approach to health and wellness. Takeaways Balancing hormones is a common but oversimplified concept. Hormones are dynamic and should fluctuate naturally. Cortisol should peak in the morning and taper off at night. Insulin's role is to help move glucose into cells for energy. Static hormone levels can lead to discomfort and health issues. Understanding the body's signals is crucial for hormonal health. Stress significantly impacts thyroid hormone function. The focus should be on adaptability rather than balance. Your body is not broken; it responds to the information it receives. A deeper understanding of hormonal dynamics can lead to better health outcomes.
