More Than Just Calories
Update: 2025-12-04
Description
In this deeply personal solo episode, I open up about the recent loss of my beloved puppy and the profound impact that trauma and stress can have on our bodies—especially for women over 40. I share my own journey through grief, explaining how sudden emotional events can trigger hormonal changes, insulin resistance, and shifts in body composition, even when diet and exercise remain consistent.
Key Moments:
- The science behind how trauma and stress affect hormones, metabolism, and weight
- Why “calories in, calories out” doesn’t tell the whole story for women in perimenopause and menopause
- Real-life examples from my clients on overcoming plateaus and health setbacks
- Actionable strategies for restoring balance: prioritizing sleep, managing stress, adjusting macros, and supporting blood sugar
- The importance of self-compassion, resilience, and listening to your body during difficult times
