    Biohack Her: The Genetic Keys to Longevity and Graceful Aging

    Most women are following biohacking advice that was never designed for their biology, and the results speak for themselves: exhaustion, weight that will not move, accelerated aging, and a growing sense that the body is working against them no matter what they try. In this episode of The Whole and Complete Woman Podcast, originally recorded live at the All Things Woman Summit, Dr. Alicia Newsome presents a session from Natosha Ash, M.S., a scientist in human genetics and genomics who specializes in nutrigenetics and biological aging. Natosha has dedicated her work to making the science of aging understandable and actionable for women, because aging is not just about the number of years lived. It is about how the body is functioning at the cellular level, and those two things are not always the same. This session goes deep on the difference between chronological and biological aging and why it matters, Natosha's five-level framework for understanding how the body ages from the inside out, starting with circadian disruption, moving through mitochondrial energy, chronic inflammation, and cellular cleanup, and ending with structural changes that eventually show up visibly, the unique aging accelerators women face because of hormonal transitions, mitochondrial function, the gut-hormone relationship, sleep, nutrition, and genetics that all intersect throughout a woman's lifespan, why women can follow the exact same diet, exercise program, and supplement routine and have completely different results, and how genetics and nutrigenomics give us another layer of information for creating individualized strategies rather than assuming one universal approach applies to everyone. If you have ever felt like you are doing everything right and still not seeing the results you expected, this session will give you the real explanation and a place to start. Chapters: 00:00 - Welcome and Introduction 02:53 - Chronological Age vs. Biological Age and Why the Difference Matters 04:01 - How Biological Age Is Measured and What It Tells You 11:28 - Why Women's Aging Deserves Its Own Conversation 14:19 - Level One: Circadian Disruption and Why Everything Starts Here 20:34 - How to Align Your Circadian Biology from Foundation to Advanced 25:13 - Intermittent Fasting, Longevity Genes, and Why It Has to Be Tailored to You 26:00 - Genetic Keys for Level One: Chronotype, Hunger, and Exercise Response 30:16 - Level Two: Energy Collapse and the NAD Drop That Starts at 25 33:02 - Sirtuins, Longevity Genes, and Estrogen as Your Mitochondrial Manager 38:26 - How to Activate PGC-1 Alpha Without Estrogen 39:12 - Genetic Keys for Level Two: How Your Genes Determine Your NAD Response 43:28 - Level Three: When Inflammation Gets Locked On   Connect with Natosha Ash, M.S.: Instagram: @Natural_Natosha Linktree: https://linktr.ee/natural_natosha ALL THINGS WOMAN SUMMIT: This session was originally recorded live at the All Things Woman Summit.

    She Tried Almost Every Peptide on the Market So You Do Not Have To

    Peptides have become one of the biggest conversations in health and wellness, but most people hear the word without knowing what it actually means or where the real evidence stops and the hype begins.   In this episode of The Whole and Complete Woman Podcast, Dr. Alicia Newsome sits down with Katie Bean, DMS, PA-C, a physician associate of 16 years and founder of Escape the Clinic, to talk about the role of peptides in aging and recovery. Katie spent a decade in emergency medicine before moving into functional and regenerative medicine, where she discovered peptides firsthand, using them on herself before ever prescribing them to patients through her telehealth clinic.   This conversation goes deep on what peptides are and why they have gone mainstream, Katie's own experience with Sermorelin and BPC-157, the three major GLPs on the market and how they differ, why foundations like protein, hydration, strength training, and hormone optimization matter more than the peptide itself, how to protect your muscle while on a GLP, the biggest peptide myths Katie wants people to stop repeating, and where peptides do not belong, including pregnancy, breastfeeding, and cancer history. But the conversation goes beyond the science. Katie opens up about losing her younger sister Shelby in a car accident, the wake-up call it gave her about the gap between her stated priorities and her actual life, and how that loss led her to leave the traditional clinical model, build Escape the Clinic, and rebuild her definition of success around faith, family, and service. If you have ever wondered whether peptides are right for you, or felt like your calendar was lying about your priorities, this episode will change how you think about both.   Chapters: 00:00 - Welcome and Introduction 03:22 - What Exactly Is a Peptide 04:14 - The History of Peptides and Global Use 05:39 - Katie's Own Peptide Journey and Sermorelin 08:28 - BPC-157 and the Wolverine Stack 10:51 - The Most Promising Peptide Research Right Now 12:19 - GLPs Explained: Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, and Retatrutide 14:52 - How to Prevent Muscle Loss on a GLP 18:22 - Hormones, Perimenopause, and the Underserved Patient 20:52 - Peptide Myths and What Is Actually Realistic 23:26 - Peptides, Fertility, and Pregnancy 25:41 - Losing Shelby and the Wake-Up Call 27:38 - From Burnout to Building Escape the Clinic 29:11 - What Clinical Training Never Teaches You About Business 30:58 - How to Find Your Online Business Niche 31:59 - Redefining Success After Loss 36:29 - Rapid Fire Questions 38:13 - Integrating Faith, Health, Work, and Purpose 38:54 - What Being a Whole and Complete Woman Means to Katie 40:19 - Where to Find Katie and Escape the Clinic   Resources and Links: Free Peptide Cheat Sheet: https://escapetheclinic.myflodesk.com/papeptidecheatsheet Peptide Playbook: https://escapetheclinic.mysamcart.com/the-pa-peptide-toolkit/ Steadfast Life — Peptides and GLPs: https://www.mysteadfastlife.com/ Shop Peptides Directly: https://altroapp.com/mysteadfastlife Use code SFHello for $20 off anything, anytime, at Steadfast Life Connect with Katie Bean: Podcast: Escape the Clinic — https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/escape-the-clinic/id1761218364 Instagram: @escapetheclinic — https://www.instagram.com/escapetheclinic/ FREE RESOURCES FROM DR.

    Unlocking Hormonal Health: Keto Secrets For Women

    Most women have been told that discipline looks like waking up before the sun to get a workout in, and that anything less is falling behind, when the truth is that sacrificing sleep for exercise can work directly against the results they are chasing. In this episode of The Whole and Complete Woman Podcast, originally recorded live at the All Things Women Summit, Dr. Alicia Newsome sits down with Maria Emmerich, an international bestselling author, nutritionist, and one of the foremost voices in ketogenic and low carb nutrition. Maria has spent over two decades helping thousands of people transform their health through personalized food strategies and metabolic insights, and her own journey began as a teenager diagnosed with PCOS and told she would never have children, a diagnosis that pushed her to teach herself the connection between excess sugar, carbohydrates, and hormone dysfunction long before the internet made that information easy to find. This conversation goes deep on why sleep is the single most powerful and most overlooked biohack available, and why waking up early to exercise on too little rest can spike cravings, disrupt leptin and ghrelin, and make it harder to build muscle rather than easier. Maria breaks down how nutritional needs shift during perimenopause and menopause, why she prioritizes protein over fat for most women, the truth about gluconeogenesis and why chicken breast is not the same as chocolate cake, some of the biggest myths circulating about ketosis and hormone replacement therapy, why she considers HRT life changing even for women who feel fine, the real risks behind hormone pellets that most women are never told about, and why caffeine may be doing more damage to blood sugar and hormone balance than most people realize. If you have ever felt confused by conflicting nutrition advice or unsure where to even start with your hormone health, this episode will give you real clarity.

    The 4-Step Process to Resolve Long Covid and Chronic Fatigue Naturally

    Most women living with unrelenting exhaustion have been told it is stress, hormones, or simply part of getting older, and they have learned to stop asking questions because no one has been able to give them a real answer. In this special episode of The Whole and Complete Woman Podcast, originally recorded live at the All Things Women Summit, Dr. Alicia Newsome sits down with Evan H. Hirsch, MD, known as the Energy MD. Evan is a world renowned chronic fatigue expert, bestselling author, professional speaker, and the creator of the Energy MD Method, a science backed 4-step process for resolving chronic fatigue and long COVID. His work began with his own story, first watching his wife lose three years of her life to chronic fatigue syndrome, then losing five years of his own, and it has since helped thousands of people around the world reclaim their energy and their lives. This conversation goes deep on what long COVID actually is and how it differs from chronic fatigue syndrome, why there is no reliable diagnostic test and what chronology to look for instead, the surprising research showing that milder initial symptoms predict a higher likelihood of long COVID, the toxic five root causes that Evan finds in nearly every patient he treats, why opening your detox exit pathways before removing toxins is non negotiable, how the adrenals, thyroid, and ovaries work together as a three legged stool that shapes the menopause transition, and the four step morning mindset practice he uses to move the nervous system out of fight or flight. If you have ever been told your exhaustion is just stress and walked away knowing something deeper was going on, this episode is for you.

    Why Everything You Were Told About Healthy Eating Is Making It Harder, Not Easier

    Most women have spent years being told what to cut, what to avoid, and what to eliminate, yet despite following all the rules, they still feel confused, guilty, and exhausted by food. The problem is not willpower and it is not discipline. The problem is that the advice was never designed to be sustainable or to fit the real lives, cultures, and kitchens of actual women.   In this episode of The Whole and Complete Woman Podcast, Dr. Alicia Newsome sits down with Dr. Sabrina Falquier, a physician triple board certified in internal medicine, culinary medicine, and lifestyle medicine, and founder of Sensations Salud. Born and raised in Mexico City to Swiss and American parents, Dr. Falquier brings a deeply multicultural perspective to the intersection of food, culture, medicine, and health. After more than 15 years in primary care, she now works with universities, medical schools, teaching kitchens, and healthcare professionals around the world to help translate nutrition science into something people can actually use in their everyday lives.   This conversation goes deep on why 80% of chronic diseases are linked to food and lifestyle yet doctors receive almost no nutrition training in medical school, how to build a plate that is evidence based and genuinely enjoyable without turning every meal into a math equation, why cultural foods have been unfairly vilified and what that does to a person's identity and trust in the healthcare system, the 80/20 rule for eating that actually gives you permission to live, how batch cooking can transform your relationship with meal prep without eating the same sad leftovers all week, and why connection at the table, without screens, is one of the most underrated health interventions available to us right now. If you have ever felt guilty about enjoying food or overwhelmed by conflicting nutrition advice, this episode will change how you think about eating for good. Chapters: 00:00 - Welcome and Introduction 04:00 - What Culinary Medicine Actually Is and Why It Changes Everything 07:26 - How to Build a Healthy Plate Without Counting a Single Calorie 14:15 - Batch Cooking, Spice Mixes, and the Art of Being Your Own Sous Chef 18:30 - Why Frozen and Canned Foods Deserve a Spot in Your Kitchen 23:13 - How to Stop Being a Perfectionist About What You Eat 28:40 - The Six Pillars of Lifestyle Medicine and How They Work Together 31:10 - Find the Physical Activity That Actually Brings You Joy 32:48 - The Truth About Protein and Why Eating It Is Not Enough on Its Own 37:00 - Why Cultural Foods Are Not the Problem and Vilifying Them Is 44:00 - Why Doctors Are Not Trained in Nutrition and What Is Changing 51:24 - Bringing Food, Connection, and Joy Back to the Table 53:02 - Rapid Fire and Giveaway Details   GIVEAWAY: Dr. Sabrina is giving away a gorgeous kitchen towel and bench scraper from Sensations Salud.    Resources and Links: Website: https://www.sensationssalud.com Instagram and Facebook: @SensationsSalud LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sabrinafalquier/ Podcast (English): Culinary Medicine Recipe Podcast (Spanish): Medicina Culinaria Documentary: The Kitchenistas   Connect with Dr. Sabrina Falquier: Website: https://www.sensationssalud.com Email: info@sensationssalud.com Instagram and Facebook: @SensationsSalud FREE RESOURCES FROM DR.

    The Root Cause Approach to Thyroid Dysfunction Your Doctor Was Never Taught

    Most women have been told their thyroid labs are normal and left the appointment feeling confused, because normal is not the same thing as optimal, and that gap is where so many women get stuck for years without answers. In this special episode of The Whole and Complete Woman Podcast, originally recorded live at the All Things Women Summit, Dr. Alicia Newsome brings you a teaching session from Amanda Montalvo, a women's health dietitian and host of the Hormone Healing RD Podcast. Amanda's own thyroid health became her biggest concern after coming off hormonal birth control, and after years of working through her own hypothyroidism and PCOS, she has spent the last decade helping thousands of women understand what is actually driving their thyroid dysfunction. This session breaks down exactly how to read your thyroid labs, what your minerals are telling you, and how to find the real root cause behind your symptoms. This conversation goes deep on how the thyroid sets the metabolic pace for nearly every system in the body, why chronic stress quietly blunts thyroid hormone production even when bloodwork looks fine, the optimal ranges for a full thyroid panel and why those differ from what most doctors are trained to look for, how hair mineral testing reveals whether your body can actually use the thyroid hormone it is making, and the five different root causes of thyroid dysfunction along with real case studies that show how each one shows up in real women's lives. If you have ever felt exhausted, dismissed, or confused by normal labs that do not match how you actually feel, this episode is for you. Chapters: 00:00 - Welcome back and why this episode comes from the summit stage 02:09 - Meet Amanda Montalvo and the health crisis that started her thyroid journey 08:05 - What your thyroid actually does and why it touches every system in your body 12:04 - The real relationship between stress and your thyroid 15:15 - Four simple daily habits that support your thyroid and lower stress 22:41 - Thyroid blood labs and what optimal actually looks like 27:29 - What hair mineral testing reveals that blood work misses 36:04 - The five root causes of thyroid dysfunction 49:20 - Real case studies of women who got their thyroid back on track 1:09:35 - Closing thoughts and your invitation to the next summit Resources and Links: Podcast: Hormone Healing RD Podcast Instagram: @hormonehealingrd Free mineral quiz: https://hormonehealingrd.com/guides-support/mineral-quiz/# Connect with Amanda Montalvo: Podcast: Hormone Healing RD Podcast Instagram: @hormonehealingrd ALL THINGS WOMEN SUMMIT: This session was originally recorded live at the All Things Women Summit.

    Stop Running Your Business Like an Employee and Start Leading It Like a CEO

    If you have ever finished a full week of work, checked off every task on your list, and still felt like you made zero progress, this episode is going to explain exactly why that happens and what to do about it.   In this episode of The Whole and Complete Woman Podcast, Dr. Alicia Newsome sits down with Philippa Channer, marketing strategist, speaker, author, and founder of Channer Consulting. Philippa helps women entrepreneurs move from scattered marketing to CEO level clarity. She believes that marketing does not begin with tactics. It begins with clarity. And when women learn to lead from that place, they stop spinning their wheels and start building businesses that truly reflect their vision and purpose.   This conversation covers why so many entrepreneurs stay stuck in operator mode, the difference between employee thinking and CEO thinking, why your marketing problem probably is not a marketing problem at all, how to decide what to delegate and what only you can do, why visibility without strategy is working against you, and how faith and clarity work together to quiet imposter syndrome and build confidence that lasts.   Chapters:  00:00 - Welcome and Introduction  04:03 - What Operator Mode Actually Looks Like and Why It Keeps You Stuck  05:46 - Start With the Vision Before You Do Anything Else  07:38 - The Dollar Value Framework for Deciding What to Delegate  10:15 - What Holds Entrepreneurs Back From Letting Go  12:39 - SOPs, AI, and Building Systems That Actually Scale  16:53 - The Visibility Problem Is Not Visibility.

    The Hormone Truth Every Woman in Perimenopause Needs to Hear

    Most women navigating perimenopause and hormonal imbalance are told the same thing. Your labs look normal. This is just part of aging. There is not much we can do. And they leave that appointment feeling more dismissed than when they walked in.   In this episode of The Whole and Complete Woman Podcast, Dr. Alicia Newsome sits down with Dr. Erin Ellis, a naturopathic medical doctor specializing in women's hormone health and creator of the Rooted and Realigned method. Dr. Ellis works with women navigating fatigue, weight changes, mood shifts, irregular cycles, and the often confusing transitions of perimenopause and menopause. She is especially known for helping women who feel like they have tried everything but still do not feel like themselves.   This conversation covers what your hormones are actually trying to tell you, why mood changes, sleep disruption, and weight shifts are not personality flaws but biological signals, how conventional medicine is failing women in midlife, why normal labs do not mean optimal function, how to approach nervous system regulation as a tool not a root cause solution, and the foundational daily habits that support hormone health at every stage of life.   Chapters: 00:00 - Welcome and Introduction 03:27 - Hormones Are Messengers Not the Problem 04:50 - The Most Common Signals Women Ignore or Misinterpret 07:02 - Why Women Between 40 and 60 Are the Most Dismissed by Medicine 09:04 - Normal Labs Do Not Mean Optimal and Here Is the Difference 17:10 - What Foundational Hormone Testing Should Actually Include 20:35 - Rest Is Not Just Sleep.
