  1. Connecting the Dots: Doing Less and Finally Understanding What Your Body Needs

    Connecting the Dots: Doing Less and Finally Understanding What Your Body Needs

    This episode is a highlight reel from the past few months, pulling together some of the most important conversations we've had around gut health, hormones, metabolism, fertility, and foundational healing. As I revisited these episodes, one theme kept coming up again and again: doing less, but doing it better. Instead of chasing trends, cutting more foods, or layering on more supplements, this season has really been about slowing down, understanding your body more deeply, and focusing on the core systems that actually drive healing. Gut health influences hormones. Hormones influence metabolism. Stress impacts everything. When you zoom out, it becomes clear that your body isn't a collection of separate symptoms – this episode will help you see that bigger picture and better understand what your body needs.   Resources: • Which lab test is best for you? → • Get functional lab testing → • Follow along on Instagram →   In this episode: 03:40 – Why detox cleanses can backfire (Ep 74: The Truth About Detox) 08:49 – Ayurveda and seasonal support for your body (Ep 75: Holistic Seasonal Healing) 13:29 – How restrictive nutrition trends can make symptoms worse (Ep 76: Wellness From Within) 19:18 – A root-cause approach to fertility (Ep 77: Unexplained Infertility, Explained) 24:33 – The biggest misconception about gut health (Ep 78: The Gut Reset Mini Series, Ep 1) 30:33 – What gut testing actually reveals about "good" vs "bad" bacteria (Ep 79: The Gut Reset Mini Series, Ep 2) 39:29 – The framework I use for gut healing (Ep 80: The Gut Reset Mini Series, Ep 3) 44:34 – Making sense of common gut symptoms (Ep 81: The Gut Reset Mini Series, Ep 4) 50:24 – The common theme I see with stubborn weight (Ep 83: Why You're Not Losing Weight)   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.

    Pregnancy & Postpartum Recovery: A Mini Case Study on Nourishing Your Body, Replenishing Nutrients, and Preventing Depletion

    In this episode, I'm walking you through a client case study that highlights how important nutrition is during pregnancy and postpartum. These are two of the most demanding phases for your body, and many women are still undernourished going into them. I break down what happens in your body during pregnancy when nutrients are low. We also talk about how this can show up postpartum and the key foundations that make the biggest difference in avoiding depletion and replenishing essential nutrients.   Resources: • Which lab test is best for you? → • Get functional lab testing → • Follow along on Instagram →   In this episode: 01:05 – A little life update 01:52 – Pregnancy is nutritionally demanding 03:00 – Signs you may be undernourished 05:13 – Postpartum depletion and recovery 06:50 – The effect of underlying issues 08:06 – Key macronutrients 10:23 – Essential micronutrients and prenatals pitfalls 12:18 – Nervous system and stress in postpartum 14:12 – What to do when nutrition isn't enough   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.

    Why You're Not Losing Weight: When You're Doing All the Right Things but Your Body Isn't Responding

    In this episode, I'm talking about something that comes up with so many women who walk into my practice: stubborn weight. Many women I work with are already eating well, exercising, and trying to take care of their health—but the scale won't move or they're gaining weight without understanding why. That disconnect can feel incredibly frustrating. The reality is that weight isn't always about sheer willpower or calorie math. Your body's internal environment plays a huge role in how it uses and stores energy. Understanding the bigger picture of your health can change the way you approach stubborn weight.   Resources: • Which lab test is best for you? → • Get functional lab testing → • Follow along on Instagram →   In this episode: 01:05 – The pattern I see with clients struggling to lose weight 04:35 – "Calories in, calories out" is an oversimplification 07:22 – Stress and cortisol patterns that affect weight 14:13 – Thyroid health and metabolism 19:20 – Blood sugar patterns that can drive weight gain 24:04 – The essential role of androgens  26:59 – Inflammation is a hidden driver of stubborn weight 30:40 – What actually helps the body release weight   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.

    The Gut Reset Mini Series, ​Ep 4: Your Gut Health Questions, Answered

We talk about why symptoms can flare even when you feel like you're doing "everything right" and what certain reactions can mean (like bloating, fiber intolerance, probiotics making things worse). I also share how gut health connects to skin and hormonal acne.

    FEB 20

    The Gut Reset Mini Series, Ep 3: Why Most Gut Protocols Fail & What's Missing

    In this third episode of the Gut Reset Mini Series, I walk you through the framework I use with clients for actual gut repair and how all the pieces come together once you have your results. I explain the phases of gut repair I use in practice and why the order matters. We talk about why so many gut protocols fail and what it really takes to heal in a way that's sustainable. If you've tried "everything" (probiotics, elimination diets, generic gut protocols, etc) – this episode will help you understand what's usually missing and how to approach gut healing in a more effective, personalized way.   Resources: • [Free quiz] Which test is best for you? → • Get functional lab testing → • Follow Tanya on Instagram →   In this episode: 01:05 – The Gut Reset Framework 03:31 – The 5 R's 04:21 – Step 1: Remove 07:20 – Step 2: Replace 08:29 – Step 3: Repair 10:16 – Step 4: Reinoculate 12:34 – Step 5: Rebalance 13:58 – What progress looks like 14:56 –  Most common reasons gut protocols fail 16:33 – Submit your questions   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.

    The Gut Reset Mini Series, Ep 2: How I Find the Root Cause – Inside a Gut Test

    In this second episode of the Gut Reset Mini Series, I walk you through how I actually assess gut health and what can show up on a comprehensive gut test. Once you understand how connected your gut is to hormones, energy, skin, mood, and immunity, the next question is usually: how do I know what's happening in my body? We talk about why symptoms alone can be misleading and how the same symptom can stem from very different root causes. I also share why interpreting a gut test properly within your specific context (symptoms, health history, other labs, etc) is the only way to build a personalized and truly effective healing plan. If you've ever wondered whether gut testing makes sense for you, this episode will help you understand when it can be useful.   Resources: • [Free quiz] Which test is best for you? → • Get functional lab testing → • Follow Tanya on Instagram →   In this episode: 01:05 – Why symptoms alone don't tell the full story 02:47 – The power of a comprehensive gut test  05:14 – What a gut test will actually show us 06:49 – Digestion & why eating "healthy" isn't always enough 08:52 – Fat absorption, energy, and hormones 09:38 – Inflammation + immunity markers 11:47 – Gut barrier integrity 12:42 – Getting rid of pathogens and opportunistic microbes 14:52 – Parasites 👀 17:26 – A balanced gut microbiome 20:17 – Why context matters more than any single marker 21:50 – Who gut testing is (and isn't) for 23:35 – The gut repair framework   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.

  8. The Gut Reset Mini Series, Ep 1: Why Gut Health Affects Everything

    FEB 6

    The Gut Reset Mini Series, Ep 1: Why Gut Health Affects Everything

    This episode kicks off the Gut Reset Mini Series — a 4-part deep dive into the foundations of gut health and how true gut repair works. In this first episode, I'm walking you through how your gut influences nearly every system in your body and the most common root causes of gut imbalance I see clinically. Women often come to me with symptoms that feel "random" (things like acne, fatigue, PMS, anxiety, hormone imbalances, fertility struggles) and don't realize their gut is at the center of it all. Gut health has become one of the most talked-about topics in the wellness space, and also one of the most confusing. You'll hear people telling you to cut foods, add probiotics, do parasite cleanses, or follow generic gut protocols, but very rarely is anyone explaining why, who it's for, or how to personalize any of it. If you've ever felt like something is off in your gut, this episode will give you a framework for understanding what might be going on and where to start.   Resources: • [Free quiz] Which test is best for you? → • Get functional lab testing → • Follow Tanya on Instagram →   In this episode: 01:05 – A lot of gut health info is wrong or incomplete 😬 03:28 – The surprisingly wide range of symptoms 04:59 – Why so many systems trace back to the gut 06:25 – How the gut affects hormones 07:40 – How the medical system fails gut health 11:19 – Root causes of gut imbalance I see most often 12:14 – Two medications that massively affect the gut 13:49 – Cutting calories and certain food groups 16:27 – Why personalization and testing matter so much   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.
