Description

In this heartfelt conversation, Carly Brown is joined by her dear friend and integrative thyroid expert McCall McPherson, founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic. Together, they walk through Carly’s personal thyroid journey—when a life‑changing diagnosis brought fear, doubt, and fatigue—and how McCall’s compassionate, informed guidance lit the spark that reignited her health and zest for life.


McCall opens up about her own experience being dismissed at age 27 and shares how shifting from Synthroid (T4-only) to a personalized T4/T3 combo, paired with targeted lifestyle shifts, restored her energy and reversed lifelong Hashimoto’s symptoms. They also discuss the power of intermittent fasting, green juice, and sauna routines, and why mainstream medicine’s fear of T3 is rooted more in outdated dogma than in data.


This episode dives into:

  • McCall’s story: from being dismissed to founding Modern Thyroid Clinic

  • The true impact of Hashimoto’s & environmental inflammation on thyroid health

  • Why supplementing with T3 (active thyroid hormone) can be a game‑changer

  • How T4‑only meds often leave patients in a fog—when labs don’t reveal the full picture

  • Why mainstream practitioners resist T3—and what current data actually shows

  • The essential labs to request: Free T4, Free T3, Reverse T3, TPO + Thyroglobulin antibodies

  • The critical distinction: normal vs. optimal lab ranges

  • Best first steps: when to start medication vs. lifestyle pivots

  • McCall’s daily anchors: intermittent fasting, green juice & sauna sessions

  • How advocacy and partnership in healthcare lead to long‑term vitality

If you or someone you love suspects a thyroid imbalance—or if you're seeking tools to reclaim energy, clarity, and confidence—this conversation is filled with empowering insights and actionable strategies to help you take back your health.
