    209. GLP-1s and PCOS: Why It’s Working Better Than Birth Control Ever Did

    For years, we've treated PCOS like an ovary problem.  But what if the ovaries are simply where the symptoms show up?  What if the real issue starts with insulin, inflammation, and metabolic signaling long before cysts ever appear on an ultrasound? In this episode, we're taking a deeper look at why GLP-1 peptides have been so effective for many women with PCOS—and why their benefits extend far beyond weight loss. We'll explore the connection between insulin resistance, testosterone, irregular cycles, fertility challenges, and the metabolic dysfunction that frequently sits at the root of PCOS.  You'll learn why many traditional approaches focus on managing symptoms, while GLP-1s may be helping address one of the key drivers behind them. We'll also discuss why PCOS isn't simply a hormone problem or an ovary problem, and how understanding the body's interconnected systems can change the way we think about treatment and healing. Because when you stop focusing on the branches and start looking at the roots, the entire conversation about PCOS begins to change. If you're struggling with PCOS, weight loss resistance, or hormone symptoms and want a personalized approach, I'd love to help. Schedule a free consultation to explore what's driving your symptoms and what true healing could look like for you. www.bodyyoucrave.com/schedule  Are you struggling to lose weight after trauma?  Join me for an all new, live workshop and learn what every woman should know about stress, metabolism, and lasting weight loss.

    Bonus: Food Noise, GLP-1s, and the Missing Piece No One Is Talking About

    Food noise isn't just about hunger. While GLP-1 medications can be incredibly effective at reducing appetite and quieting the constant thoughts about food, many people discover that the deeper struggle doesn't disappear when the cravings do. In this special replay from my presentation at the Nashville Health & Wellness Expo, we're exploring the missing piece that rarely gets discussed in conversations about weight loss, food freedom, and GLP-1s. You'll learn: Why food noise is about so much more than physical hunger How shame, diet trauma, and chronic restriction shape your relationship with food The hidden "Restrict → Binge → Regret" cycle that keeps so many people stuck Why medication alone doesn't heal the emotional patterns underneath overeating The key to creating lasting peace with food—with or without a GLP-1 If you've ever wondered why your struggles with food feel deeper than willpower, this episode will help you connect the dots between biology, psychology, and true healing. Because quieting food noise is powerful. But understanding why it was there in the first place is transformational. And when you're ready to take your health back into your own hands, so that getting dressed every day is a breeze, I'd love to help.  Schedule your free consultation at www.bodyyoucrave.com/schedule to learn more.  Chapters (00:00:02) - Hungry for Love(00:00:24) - Food Noise and GLP1s(00:01:44) - Food Noise and How to Lose Weight(00:09:49) - How to Heal Food Noise Without Medication(00:17:53) - GLP1s and their place in your life(00:20:13) - Breaking Free From the Binge Eating Cycle

    208. GLP-1’s, Eating Disorders, and the Healing Most People Skip

    Most people aren't struggling with food, their weight, or habits because they lack willpower or nutrition knowledge.  They're struggling because years of dieting, weight stigma, body shame, and chronic stress have created a nervous system that no longer feels safe around food. True healing requires more than changing what you eat — it requires changing your relationship with food, your body, and how you talk to yourself.  Today's episode addresses the connection between GLP-1 use and eating disorders, why it's happening to some but not all, and how GLP-1's might actually help you HEAL parts of your diet trauma.  Keep listening to learn more.  And when you're ready to explore a customized approach to not just losing weight, but keeping it off long term, I'd love to explore if my 4-part process is right for you.  Schedule your free consultation at www.bodyyoucrave.com/schedule.  Is your metabolism traumatized?  If you've experienced emotional, verbal, or spiritual abuse, the answer is likely 'yes.' This is a critical piece when it comes to weight loss, especially when you're 40+, because abuse triggers a cascade of repercussions in the body.  Learn more with my all new, free workshop: Your Metabolism Isn't Broken — It's Traumatized.  Get all the details here: https://calendly.com/jillian-2/trauma Chapters (00:00:02) - Hungry for Love(00:00:24) - GLP1s and Anorexia(00:07:45) - Weight Loss on a GLP1 peptide(00:15:26) - Binge Eating and Relationship Cycle

    207. Your Metabolism’s Not Broken – It’s Traumatized

    If you feel like your metabolism suddenly stopped responding in your 40’s, this episode is for you. Because despite what you’ve been told, your body isn’t “just aging,” and the answer is NOT more restriction, more cardio, or more self-control. In this episode, we’re talking about the deeper reasons so many women struggle with weight gain, inflammation, cravings, exhaustion, and insulin resistance during peri/menopause.  And why the real issue often has far more to do with stress, nervous system dysregulation, chronic dieting, and emotional patterns, than calories, burpees, or running. We’ll unpack: Why your metabolism may feel “broken.” How trauma and chronic stress impact the body physiologically. Why weight gain is a symptom—not the root problem. The connection between inflammation, hormones, insulin resistance & emotional eating. And a more supportive approach to metabolic healing.  If you’re tired of fighting your body and ready to understand what’s actually happening beneath the surface, this conversation will change how you see everything.  ️ I’m also hosting a live workshop called: “Your Metabolism Isn’t Broken—It’s Traumatized” You can register here: https://calendly.com/jillian-2/trauma Chapters (00:00:02) - Hungry for Love(00:00:24) - Does Your Metabolism Break?(00:02:36) - How to Heal Your Metabolic Dysfunction in Your 40s(00:07:12) - How to Heal a Trauma- Affected Body(00:12:36) - Binge Eating and Relationship Cycle

    206. Abuse, Autoimmune, & GLP-1’s (what your doc doesn’t know)

    What if your autoimmune condition didn’t start in your gut… but in your nervous system? In today’s episode, we’re talking about the connection between emotional abuse, chronic stress, autoimmune disease, hormone dysfunction, and the surprising role GLP-1 peptides are beginning to play in helping women regulate inflammation, insulin, and hormones, so that they finally feel “normal” again. Because here’s the truth: Many women are being treated for symptoms, while the root cause is never addressed. We’ll cover: How chronic emotional stress changes the body biologically. Why cortisol dysregulation can drive immune dysfunction. The connection between trauma, metabolism, and weight gain. What most doctors are not taught about nervous system dysfunction. The nuanced truth about GLP-1’s beyond weight loss. This episode will completely change the way you think about health, healing, and the physiological impact of trauma on the body.  Curious to see if a microdosing protocol is right for you and your goals this year?  Schedule a free consultation to learn more about how I guide clients through lifestyle changes, emotional regulation, hormonal testing, and peptide therapy to decrease inflammation, improve insulin sensitivity, regulate hormones, and ultimately create the life and body you crave.  www.bodyyoucrave.com/schedule Chapters (00:00:02) - Eat Hungry for Love(00:00:24) - Attacking the body with abuse(00:01:24) - Why is it so common for abuse survivors to have autoimmune diseases?(00:11:15) - Autoimmune diseases and cortisol dysregulation(00:18:57) - Cortisol dysregulation and autoimmune conditions(00:22:51) - GLP1s and cancer(00:31:24) - It's Time to Break the Cycle

    205. Loving Others with Boundaries

    Some of us were taught that love means unlimited access. Unlimited tolerance. Unlimited sacrifice. Unlimited chances. Unlimited self-abandonment. And then we wonder why our bodies are exhausted. In this episode, I’m sharing a personal reflection from Mother’s Day after being asked to pray at the end of a church service — specifically around learning to love people with boundaries, wisdom, and sometimes even distance. Because not every relationship is healed through proximity. Sometimes healing begins when we finally stop betraying ourselves to maintain connection. We’re diving into the childhood patterns that quietly follow us into adulthood: People-pleasing. Hyper-responsibility. Fear of disappointing others. Feeling guilty for having needs or boundaries. Confusing dysfunction with loyalty. And we’ll talk about how these emotional patterns don’t just affect relationships — they affect the nervous system, metabolism, and overall health. This conversation is about redefining love in a healthier way: One that includes compassion without self-destruction. If you’ve ever struggled to hold boundaries without guilt, this episode is for you.

    204. That's What She Said: Real Stories, Real Results Microdosing

    Everyone wants to talk about GLP-1’s…  But almost no one is telling the truth about it. Because it doesn’t fit the narrative. You’ve been told you should be able to fix your metabolism with discipline. With cleaner eating. With more workouts. So when something like microdosing actually works… People get uncomfortable. In this episode, I’m sharing what’s really happening when women start using small, strategic doses to support their metabolism and nervous system—without extremes, burnout, or white-knuckling their way through another plan. Including: The results clients are seeing that most people would dismiss as “too good to be true” Why microdosing isn’t a shortcut (and why that belief is keeping people stuck) What actually changes when your body finally feels safe enough to respond And the part no one wants to say out loud: why some people don’t get results Because this isn’t about chasing weight loss. It’s about finally working with your body instead of constantly trying to control it. And once you experience that shift… there’s no going back. If you’ve been skeptical, this might challenge you. If you’ve been struggling, it might explain everything. Either way—you’ll see this differently by the end. And if you’re ready to explore whether this approach is right for you, I invite you to schedule a free consultation where we map out what’s actually going on in your body—and whether microdosing makes sense for your goals.

    203. Beyond Weight Loss: My Microdosing Experience

    In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my personal experience with microdosing—and how it impacted far more than my body composition. While many people are chasing quick fixes or relying solely on willpower, my journey showed me something deeper: the connection between the nervous system, trauma, and metabolic health.  Inside this conversation, I share: Why I decided to explore microdosing in the first place What actually shifted (beyond the scale) The unexpected nervous system changes I experienced How this approach supported my relationship with food, stress, and self-trust And why true transformation goes far beyond calories, macros, or medication This isn’t about promoting a trend—it’s about expanding the conversation around what it really takes to heal your body and create lasting change. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing “everything right” but still stuck… this episode will open your eyes to a different path forward. And when you're ready to create a comprehensive healing experience, so that you can lose weight and keep it off for life, I'd love to help.  Schedule your free consultation to learn more: www.bodyyoucrave.com/schedule  Chapters (00:00:02) - Hungry for Love(00:00:24) - Microdosing Tirzepatide(00:06:34) - So I Started Taking the GLP-100 for My Son's(00:11:44) - Tripzepatide, Week 3(00:17:46) - Trizepatide(00:25:28) - Breaking Free From the Binge Eating Cycle
