    If Peptides Were a Color What Color Would They Be - With Laurie

    Color can calm you down, sharpen your focus, or make you feel safe, and it’s happening whether you notice it or not. We bring that hidden lever into the open with color expert and author Laurie Moore.  Ready for something fun? We ask what color specific peptides would be if they had a “frequency” you could feel. And you'll love the conversation: What color is your favorite peptide? Tune in to find out.  But first, we start with the real science behind color psychology, including how objects reflect light frequencies and why your environment changes your nervous system response. From white spaces that spark creativity to black’s absorbing quality, we talk about how color shapes mood in your home, office, or clinic room, and why small choices in design can support wellness habits and consistency.  Then we connect the dots to peptide therapy and real-life goals:  Thymosin alpha-1 (TA1) becomes the color ____ for calm, safety, trust, and immune modulation. Selank becomes ____ for cognitive function, emotional balance, and the kind of clear focus that helps you close all those open mental tabs. BPC-157 and TB-500 land in ____ for renewal, gut lining support, inflammation recovery, and soft tissue healing. We wrap with KLOW (BPC-157, TB-500, KPV, GHK-Cu) and why ____ fits repair, collagen, warmth, and that “restored” look people love to talk about.  If you like peptides, functional medicine, longevity, and tools you can use today, this one gives you a fresh way to think about healing that goes beyond supplements and protocols. Subscribe for more, share this with a friend, and leave a review with the color you think fits your favorite peptide. Want to connect more with the hosts? We'd love it!

    #40 Kate's Weight Loss Goal: Be A Grape Not A Raisin

    Fast weight loss is seductive, but it can come with a cost you don’t see until later: side effects, burnout, and results that don’t last. Today we sit down with Kate for her first-ever podcast interview to tell a different kind of GLP-1 story, one built on patience, safety, and the decision to treat peptides like a tool rather than a rescue plan.  If you’ve felt discouraged because the scale didn’t move in the first week or two, this conversation is the reality check and encouragement you’ve been looking for.  Kate shares her long road through thyroid disease, hormone chaos, sleep apnea, lymphedema, pregnancy complications, and the stress of rebuilding life after a toxic marriage. Additionally, we talk about:  why stress makes the body hold on to weight, why “instant gratification” dosing backfires, and how a functional medicine approach can support real metabolic health. You’ll hear how she started with nutrition basics like macros and prioritizing protein. We even dive into her dosing journey and how it stayed steady for months at a time - so don't just up your dosage because your weight loss paused. Experiencing weight loss plateau's are part of the journey and are a healthy part.  If you’re searching for safe GLP-1 weight loss, tirzepatide microdosing, peptide education, or sustainable fat loss strategies, you’ll leave with a clearer plan and a calmer head after listening to this conversation.  Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s tempted to rush the process, and leave a review. We hope this episode helped answer a few questions about GLP-1s or peptides, especially if you've embarked on our own weight loss journey. Want to connect more with the hosts? We'd love it!

    #39 From Skeptic to Believer: Dr. Stella (a Pharmacist) Unpacks Peptides & Menopause

    Menopause can sneak up as a thousand “small” problems that somehow add up to feeling unlike yourself:  low energy, poor sleep, rising inflammation, cravings that feel louder than your willpower, and a body that no longer responds to the old playbook. We sit down with Stella, a pharmacist and natural hormone practitioner, to talk about peptides for menopause with a clear priority: safety, sourcing, and realistic expectations over hype.  In this episode, you'll learn Stella's top 3 peptides for menopause and why they work so well: BPC-157 / TB-500, Sermorelin, GLP1 / GIP Did you know there's a special add-on you can choose when purchasing your GLP1 / GIP through our recommended telemedicine company? Most people choose B12 because of familiarity but the other two options are fantastic too. We break L-carnitine and Glycine down so you can make the most educated decision.   Are you still on the fence? This gives you a grounded way to choose one next step, not a whole new personality. Or maybe you need to know what peptide to add next? Your answers are inside.  Subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review, then tell us what menopause symptom you most want to solve first.

    BONUS: Feel Like You're On an Island? Not Here - with Hali Laricey

    For many entrepreneurs, the journey can be lonely. We often hear how people feel like they're on an island. Not here. Not with Jessica, Dr. Kylie, and the team leaders around them. What is the support, community, and mentorship like after you join as an affiliate? If we can build a peptide business (without pharmaceutical license but offer these) you can too.  Hali Laricey joins us to tell the truth about her first reaction to the opportunity: “yeah, maybe not.”  Her hesitation wasn’t about ambition, it was about lacking good information and getting burned by expensive, hard-to-follow oral peptide protocols that made compliance tough for clients who needed help the most. As a functional wellness specialist and root cause thinker, she wants cutting-edge options, but she also wants solutions that feel ethical, sustainable, and realistic in day-to-day practice. We also break down what makes this model different for wellness entrepreneurs, virtual practitioners, and even complete beginners:  you don’t have to be a doctor to participate, you’re not building on an island, and you’re backed by a team that shares resources openly. We talk about the practical support system that comes with being an affiliate and joining our team. We also share the reality of what this company is and the powerful influence it's already having. We all love our Founder and CEO who is a biochemist and sole owner (no investors have been involved nor will there be).  So if you've been on the fence, get off it. Come join us and the rest of the community. What will an extra $500, $5000 or even $50,000 a month do for your life? Our goal is to change as many lives as possible, including our own.  Say yes and the only regret you'll have is that you didn't start sooner.  Want to connect more with the hosts? We'd love it!

    #38 Peptides that Help PMOS (Previously Known as PCOS)

    A landmark Lancet paper officially renames PCOS to PMOS: polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome. That wording is a big deal, because it pulls the conversation away from “Do you have cysts?” and back to what so many of you have been trying to explain for years: this is about multiple hormones, blood sugar, inflammation, and a body that feels like it’s fighting you no matter how hard you try.  Inside this episode, we talk through what “endocrine” actually means in real life:  thyroid, cortisol, vitamin D, metabolism and blood sugarprogesterone, estrogen, testosterone. We also dig into why liver function matters for hormone clearance, and how being told “here’s birth control” or “here’s metformin” can miss the bigger picture.  If you’ve ever felt dismissed because your symptoms didn’t fit a neat checklist, the PMOS shift may feel like validation.  Now that you understand what PMOS actually means and how to treat it, what are the peptides that match the treatment protocol? Peptide therapy can be one of the best options for individuals who suffer from symptoms from PMOS:  GLP-1/GIP (terzepatide) Glutathione MOTs-CFinally, we answer the question people keep asking about GLP-1s and other peptides: “How long do I need to be on it?” and why microdosing long term can be a smart, normal choice when your body doesn’t make enough GLP-1 in the first place.  If this helped you think differently about PMOS, subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find accurate peptide and women’s health information.

    #35 Lost Your GLP-1 Insurance Coverage (or Ready to Switch)? Here's What to Do Next.

    If your insurance stopped covering Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound — you're not alone, and you're not out of options. In 2026, the number of people with no commercial insurance coverage for GLP-1 medications increased 42% compared to last year. Dr. Kylie Burton and Jessica Brickie break down why coverage is disappearing, what happens to your body when you're cut off cold turkey, and how to continue your journey safely and affordably — whether you've lost insurance or you've been getting peptides from sources you're not totally sure about. In this episode: Why insurance companies are dropping GLP-1 coverage — and who's really making that callWhat happens physiologically when you stop cold turkey at a high doseThe gray market problem: why "so-and-so's nurse friend" and research-grade peptides are a dangerous shortcutHow to switch to a legitimate, prescription-based source without starting overHow to transition your existing prescription to a telemedicine platform and pick up right where you left offWhy titrating down to a maintenance dose may be a smarter long-term strategy than stopping entirelyThe PCOS connection: why some people literally cannot make these peptides naturallyWho this episode is for: Anyone on Wegovy, Ozempic, or Zepbound who lost coverage, is sourcing peptides informally, or wants a safer and more affordable path forward. The peptides we recommend require a prescription license. They are prescriptions for a reason. Do them safely.  Want to connect more with the hosts? We'd love it!
