    How to Get Leaner Without Eating Less: The Truth About Metabolism, Protein, and Training

    Dr. Joey Munoz is a nutrition and fitness expert with a PhD in nutritional sciences who helps people cut through the noise around weight loss, metabolism, and training to build healthier, stronger bodies without extreme diets or unsustainable routines. In this episode, Joey joins me to break down the biggest mistakes women make when trying to lose weight and why doing “everything right” can sometimes leave you feeling more frustrated with your body. We talk about why you can actually become more critical of your appearance as you get closer to your goals, the concept of perception drift, and how to get leaner and change your body composition without necessarily losing more weight. He shares the order of operations he recommends for anyone who wants to change their body, what to prioritize in the gym as we age, and the habits people who effortlessly maintain a lean physique tend to have in common. We also get into the truth about calories and metabolism, whether yo-yo dieting really damages your metabolism, why low-carb diets often backfire, how to use macros without becoming obsessive, and why breakfast may matter more than you think. Joey shares practical ways to actually hit your protein goals, the supplements that are worth your money, the diet and fitness trends he thinks are completely overrated, and his prescription for what to do when you feel like you’re doing everything right but still aren’t seeing results.

    Postpartum Depression, Identity Loss and Rethinking Beauty Standards

    Sarah Hoover is a bestselling author, art historian and cultural critic whose memoir, The Motherload: Episodes from the Brink of Motherhood, offers a brutally candid account of pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum depression and the complicated realities of becoming a mother. In this episode, Sarah joins me for an honest, funny and at times uncomfortable conversation about the parts of motherhood women still aren’t supposed to say out loud. We talk about her traumatic first birth, struggling to bond with her son, postpartum depression, rage and resentment, and what it feels like when the experience you were told would be the happiest of your life is anything but. We also get into maternal ambivalence, the pressure to be endlessly grateful, losing your identity after having a baby, and why admitting that motherhood is incredibly hard doesn’t mean you don’t love your children. But this conversation is definitely not all heavy. We also get into beauty standards and how they’ve changed, our complicated relationship with aging and wanting to look good, makeup, personal style, the aesthetics we’re collectively tired of, and what our beauty choices say about the culture we’re living in. Sarah has such a sharp, funny perspective on the expectations placed on women—from how we’re supposed to mother to how we’re supposed to look—and we talk about all of it. It’s ultimately a conversation about motherhood, beauty, identity, culture and the things women are often thinking but don’t always feel comfortable saying out loud.

    Inflammation, Skin Aging & Brain Health: What Actually Makes a Difference

    Are You Actually Inflamed? The Foods That Help Your Skin, Brain & Mood Angelo Keely is the co-founder and CEO of Kion, a health and performance company focused on helping people feel and perform their best through evidence-based nutrition. He joins me to break down one of the most talked-about—and often misunderstood—topics in wellness: inflammation, and how what we eat can impact everything from our skin and brain to mood and long-term health. We talk about what chronic low-grade inflammation actually is, how to know when inflammation is normal versus potentially problematic, and the lifestyle factors that can make a meaningful difference. Angelo explains why certain types of fats are so important, the foods we should be eating regularly to get enough of them, and how much fatty fish like sardines, anchovies and mackerel you’d realistically need to eat to reach optimal levels. We also get into how to test your omega-3 levels, the connection between omega-3s and skin health, mood and cognitive function, and what women should know during pregnancy. Plus, Angelo breaks down vegan sources, why EPA and DHA percentages matter, what to look for in a supplement, and why sourcing, purity and heavy-metal testing are so important.

    How I’m Staying Hot at 41: Beauty Treatments, Body Comp & Wellness Hot Takes

    I’m officially 41, so I’m sitting down for a solo episode to talk about everything that has changed—and everything I know now—when it comes to looking and feeling my best. I’m sharing how my approach to beauty has changed in my 40s, the treatments I’ll never stop doing, the one in-office treatment I’d choose if I could only do one, and the beauty trends I’m officially over (plus one you will absolutely never catch me participating in). I also get into how completely different my approach to fitness is now, why I’m working out less, how I’ve changed my body composition without dieting, and some of my more controversial fitness opinions. Plus, I’m getting into the wellness trends I can’t do anymore, the advice I personally don’t follow, what we were all doing to stay skinny in the early 2000s, and the things I know to be true now that I’m in my 40s. Basically: what’s actually worth doing, what I’ve stopped wasting my time on, and what makes me look and feel better at 41 than I did a decade ago.

    Dr. Colleen Cutcliffe is a PhD microbiologist, pioneer in translating cutting-edge microbiome science into clinically validated therapies and the co-founder and CEO of Pendulum. Her research focuses on the profound role our gut microbes play in metabolism, blood sugar regulation, immune function, and healthy aging, and she’s helping reshape how we think about chronic disease and longevity. In this episode, Dr. Cutcliffe joins me to discuss the fascinating connection between the microbiome and everything from sugar cravings and weight management to natural GLP-1 production, hormones, metabolism, and aging. We separate fact from fiction when it comes to probiotics, fiber, fermented foods, and microbiome diversity, and dive into the exciting new research on specific probiotic strains that may help support blood sugar regulation, reduce cravings, and improve metabolic health. We also discuss what stress, travel, antibiotics, and modern life are doing to our microbiomes, what we can learn from centenarians, and why the future of women’s health may lie in understanding the bacteria living inside us.
