    EP:178 THE GLOW METHOD: G is for GUT — Why Your Gut is Wrecking Your Hormones in Menopause

    Have you ever felt like your body just completely betrayed you? For me it started with toxic mold exposure, a Sjögren's diagnosis, and perimenopause hitting all at once in my early 40s. Then menopause arrived during a pandemic — and I gained over 10 pounds feeling like everything was falling apart. Now at 53, five years post-menopausal, I feel better than I have in my entire adult life. And it all started with understanding the G in my GLOW Method: Gut First. In this episode I'm sharing why your gut is the foundation for everything — your hormones, your weight, your mood, your energy. I'll walk you through what a struggling gut actually looks like in a real woman's body, why estrogen changes literally alter your microbiome, and the 7 steps I use with every single client to start healing the gut before we do anything else. If you're dealing with bloating, cravings, brain fog, exhaustion after meals, or weight that won't budge no matter what you do — this episode is for you. You're not crazy. You're not just aging. Your gut is telling you something — and it's time to start listening. 🔗 Join my email list for free guides & protocols: https://fit-chick-express.kit.com/hormone_tips➡️If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe and share it with a friend who's navigating this same season of life — you could be exactly the reason she finds the support she needs. ⭐ And a quick rating and review means the world and helps other women find this show!💬 Ready to stop guessing and start seeing real results?DM me the word "RESULTS" on Facebook or Instagram — no sales pitch, just a real conversation about what's actually possible for YOUR hormones and YOUR body.📌 Connect with me & grab your free resources:🔥 Free Community → Join Fit Chicks & Hormones on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/fitchicksandhormones📖 Free Hormone Health Guide → Your starting point for feeling like YOU againhttps://fit-chick-express.kit.com/hormone_health📲 Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/fitchicks_and_hormones/📲 Facebook → https://www.facebook.com/AngieMarone5🌐 Website → https://www.fitchicksandhormones.com✨ Ready for 1:1 Coaching? → Apply herehttps://fitchicksandhormones.com/apply-to-work-with-me/

    If you’re a woman in midlife struggling with weight gain, bloating, low energy, or feeling like your hormones are completely off… this episode is going to change how you look at your body. Because here’s the truth most people aren’t talking about: Hormone health in midlife does NOT start with hormones… it starts with your gut. In today’s episode of the Fit Chicks and Hormones Podcast, we’re breaking down the real connection between gut health, hormone balance, and metabolic health—so you can stop spinning your wheels and start supporting your body in a way that actually works. We cover: -Why your gut controls how your body processes and eliminates estrogen -What the estrobolome is and why it matters in perimenopause and menopause -Signs your body is NOT clearing hormones properly (bloating, belly fat, fatigue, brain fog) -How poor gut health leads to hormone imbalance symptoms -The biggest mistakes women make (under-eating, overtraining, cutting carbs) -What metabolic health actually means in midlife -Simple, foundational steps to support your gut, hormones, and energy This is not about getting skinny. This is about becoming metabolically healthy so you can feel strong, energized, and confident in your body again.

    EP: 173 How Inflammation is Holding you back in Menopause!

    Feeling like your body turned on you in your 40s or 50s? Struggling with fatigue, joint pain, weight gain, and that "inflamed all the time" feeling? This episode might be the missing piece. I'm joined by Jim Davis, owner of Fire & Ice Wellness in Longmont, Colorado. After experiencing their infrared sauna and cold plunge for myself (yes, I did the ice bath!), I had to bring Jim on to break down EXACTLY what's happening in our bodies with these powerful recovery modalities — and why they matter even more during perimenopause and menopause. In this episode we cover: ✅ What "inflam-aging" is and why it hits women so hard in midlife ✅ The best place to start if cold plunging sounds terrifying to you ✅ How sauna, red light therapy, hyperbaric oxygen, and cryo work together ✅ Whether this requires a big time or money commitment to feel results ✅ The unexpected benefit most clients walk away raving about ✅ How these tools shift not just your body — but how you FEEL about yourself This is a must-listen for any woman navigating hormonal changes who wants real, sustainable tools to reduce inflammation and feel like herself again. 🔗 Fire & Ice Wellness: https://fireandicelongmont.com/ 📲 Follow Fire & Ice Wellness on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fireandicelongmont/ 🖼️Check out the Before & After photo of Jim's clients hand =https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dt5r2CSUNUTAjxNVka6lH6y9VMzsqa8B/view?usp=sharing #perimenopause #menopause #hormonehealth #coldplunge #infaredsauna #inflammaging #weightloss #womenshealth #fitchicksandhormones #holistichealth #hormonalweightgain #midlifehealth #coldtherapy #heattherapy #redlighttherapy ➡️If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe and share it with a friend who's navigating this same season of life — you could be exactly the reason she finds the support she needs. ⭐ And a quick rating and review means the world and helps other women find this show!💬 Ready to stop guessing and start seeing real results?DM me the word "RESULTS" on Facebook or Instagram — no sales pitch, just a real conversation about what's actually possible for YOUR hormones and YOUR body.📌 Connect with me & grab your free resources:🔥 Free Community → Join Fit Chicks & Hormones on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/fitchicksandhormones📖 Free Hormone Health Guide → Your starting point for feeling like YOU againhttps://fit-chick-express.kit.com/hormone_health📲 Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/fitchicks_and_hormones/📲 Facebook → https://www.facebook.com/AngieMarone5🌐 Website → https://www.fitchicksandhormones.com✨ Ready for 1:1 Coaching? → Apply herehttps://fitchicksandhormones.com/apply-to-work-with-me/
