    190: Getting to the Root Cause for Gut Healing, Mold Toxicity and Peptides with Amanda Soukoulis

    Send us Fan Mail Amanda Soukoulis shares her personal health collapse in her 20's and how it led her into helping others with functional medicine and nutrition. This conversation focuses on why symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and poor sleep often trace back to deeper root causes rather than willpower. Amanda also shares the importance of testing in the right order, how gut health connects to hormones and detoxification, and why peptides can be a useful tool when the body is ready for them. Key topics Amanda shares her own turning point: waking up with hives, body aches, severe bloating, and 35 pounds of sudden weight gain after appearing outwardly very healthy.We discuss how high performance, heavy training, emotional stress, and under-fueling can overwhelm the body even when labs initially look normal.She outlines the main issues uncovered in her own case: bacterial pathogen in the gut, postmenopausal-level estrogen in her 20s, adrenal fatigue, sluggish thyroid, and later mold toxicity.Amanda shares how mold toxicity can show up as low energy, brain fog, sleep problems, inflammation, and weight-loss resistance, even when the source is not obvious.Amanda also introduces peptides, how they work as signaling molecules, and why she sees them as an advanced tool that works best after foundational healing.Find Amanda Soukoulis: Here Custom Session with Amanda!

    185: Why You Can’t Stop Emotional Eating and How to Break the Cycle with Michelle Murphy

    Send us Fan Mail Today I’m joined by Michelle Murphy, a licensed therapist and holistic wellness coach who helps women take control of their weight and stop obsessing over food. * If you enjoy this episode, please follow the show, leave a review, and share it with someone who may need to hear it! In this conversation, we talk about emotional eating and why knowing what to do does not always make it easy to follow through. Michelle explains how stress, the nervous system, shame and old emotional patterns can shape our relationship with food. Why struggling with those patterns does not mean there is something wrong with us. She also shares simple, practical tools that can help us slow down, become more aware of what we are feeling, and create a pause before reaching for food. We get into meditation, habit stacking, body image, self-acceptance, and how parts work can help us approach ourselves with more curiosity and compassion. If you have ever felt frustrated with yourself around food or tired of spending so much mental energy thinking about your body, I think this conversation will feel both validating and really helpful.

    184: Getting to the Root of Your Symptoms: A Roadmap to Feeling Better with Marina Moiseyeva

    Send us Fan Mail So excited to share this episode with Marina Moiseyeva, she brings such a grounded, practical perspective to wellness! We talk about why so many women still feel tired, off, or frustrated even when they’ve been told everything looks normal, and why the basics matter more than most of us want to admit. We get into things like sleep, stress, hormones, nutrition, energy, and how certain “healthy” habits can actually work against you depending on your age, life stage, and what your body truly needs. We also talk about why wellness is never one-size-fits-all, especially for women in midlife. One of the biggest takeaways from this episode is that feeling better does not always start with doing more. Sometimes it starts with slowing down, looking at the foundations, and making a few personalized changes that actually support your body. In this episode, we talk about: • Why many women still feel unwell even when labs come back “normal” • Why sleep, stress, hormones, and nutrition have to come first • How overtraining, fasting, and restrictive habits can backfire Find Free Resources: Lab Results  Optimal Bloodwork   Energy Reset https://www.bemindfulonline.com/test-your-stress FInd book HERE!

    183: The Real Reason You Can’t Stop Craving Sugar with Chris Mearns

    Send us Fan Mail Today we have guest Chris Mearns, a metabolic researcher and founder of LIV3 Health.  Chris breaks down a part of the sugar conversation that I honestly had never thought much about: fructose. He explains how fructose doesn’t just act like a calorie in the body. It can also act as a survival signal, telling the body to conserve energy and store fat. We talk about cellular energy, mitochondrial health, and why so many of us can feel tired, hungry, and stuck even when we feel like we’re doing everything right. This conversation is especially helpful for women in midlife dealing with stubborn weight gain, cravings, and fatigue. Chris also shares simple, practical steps we can take to start working with our bodies instead of constantly fighting against them. This is a great episode! have been loving the Sugar Shield!
