Sarah shares tips on integrating yoga poses like child’s pose and happy baby into your routine, and how managing stress through intentional breathing and relaxation techniques can support the entire digestive system.   If you’ve ever wondered how your pelvic floor might be contributing to gut issues—or how to address them—this episode is packed with actionable advice. From understanding how to relax your muscles to ensuring you’re setting yourself up for success in the bathroom, Sarah provides thoughtful, expert guidance for women navigating midlife health challenges.   You won’t want to miss Sarah’s expert advice, her personal anecdotes, and her invaluable tips for addressing gut health issues through pelvic floor care.

    81. Midlife Gut Health Secrets Series Part 3: What to Try When You’ve Tried Everything with Dr. Heather Finley

    Welcome to Episode 81 of the Emotional Eats Podcast! I sat down with Dr. Heather Finley, a registered dietitian and gut health expert with a doctorate in clinical nutrition. This is part three of our gut health series where we discuss what happens when you feel like you’ve "tried everything" and nothing works.  Restricting and Eliminating Foods Doesn’t Always Work Dr. Heather shares why restrictive diets often backfire, explaining how chronic energy deficits and restrictive eating can disrupt gut health and lead to symptoms like bloating, constipation, and mineral deficiencies.  We discuss how women in midlife, dealing with hormonal shifts and stress, can support their gut with practical changes that don't rely on elimination diets. Dr. Heather also explains how minerals are essential for a healthy gut and why stress can make us burn through these minerals faster, impacting everything from digestion to sleep.  Listen to this episode to learn practical strategies to support your gut health, avoid common pitfalls, and make lasting changes that nurture your body from the inside out. And for anyone feeling that they've "tried all the things," Dr. Heather’s perspective may be just what you need to try next! If you're experiencing bloating, feeling tired despite a “normal” lab report, or have done the rounds with elimination diets, Dr. Heather’s insights will resonate deeply. She also discusses the role of functional testing, like stool and mineral testing, and why they can offer insights that standard lab tests miss. Bio of Dr. Heather Finley Dr. Heather Finley is a registered dietitian with a doctorate in clinical nutrition and a gut health specialist. She supports clients struggling with bloating, constipation, and IBS, helping them find relief from symptoms and rediscover excitement about food. Through her gutTogether® method, Dr. Heather empowers people to reduce digestive symptoms, add foods back into their diet, and find freedom from restrictive eating.

    79. Gut Health Secrets Series Part 1: Gut Health Gets Real for Melissa and Kim

    Free Guide:  10 Daily Tips to Stop Stress Eating. Welcome to Episode 79 of the Emotional Eats Podcast! In this episode, hosts Kim Hynes and Melissa Slemp engage in an open and vulnerable conversation about their personal journeys with gut health challenges and hormonal shifts over the past year.  They discuss that these are more symptoms to add to the midlife and post menopausal journey. Both health coaches want to provide you with support, empathy, and practical advice as they share the ups and downs of navigating these health issues while also guiding their clients. This authentic discussion sheds light on how even experienced health professionals can face significant personal health struggles and shows the importance of tuning in to your body, advocating for yourself, and exploring holistic approaches as well as medical approaches to healing. Kim and Melissa explain how their gut health issues were unexpected, even with their background in health and wellness and daily eating and lifestyle habits. Melissa shares her sudden onset of severe skin issues in late 2023, initially misdiagnosed as eczema, which persisted and worsened over time. She details her frustrations and describes her ongoing treatments.  Kim then opens up about her battle with severe constipation, which began in early 2024 and led her to try various dietary changes, digestive aids, and functional medicine testing. After more medical testing, a clear colonoscopy and changing habits, adding supplements and eliminating foods, the symptoms have changed.  Both Kim and Melissa emphasize the importance of listening to your body, being your own advocate, and seeking medical, holistic and lifestyle coaching support when needed.  Connect with Kim and Melissa: Kim Hynes Instagram: @KimHynesHealth Website: KimHynes.com   Melissa (Blood Sugar Boss) Type 1 in Midlife Podcast: https://www.abundanthealthwithmelissa.com/podcast Instagram: @BloodSugarBoss Website: AbundantHealthWithMelissa.com   If you resonate with this episode or have a similar story, Kim and Melissa encourage you to reach out to them, share your story, and continue the conversation.
