How to Differentiate Between Type 1 vs Type 2 Diabetes
A diagnosis of diabetes isn’t just a diagnosis of diabetes. It is important to know the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. They are two distinct conditions that require different approaches to management and treatment. And while blood sugar and insulin are key players in both, knowing the difference between the two types of diabetes can help people understand their own risk factors and take steps to prevent or manage the condition.
To help us navigate these differences, we invited Melissa Slemp to the show. Melissa is known as the Blood Sugar Boss and is the founder of Abundant Health with Melissa. She is a health coach and has been living with type 1 diabetes for 40 years. She noticed changes in her hormones and insulin needs once she hit menopause and set out to make it her mission to help women manage their own diabetes. -

Slim Down By Cleaning Up! The Role of Toxins in Weight Loss.
Toxins can play a significant role in weight gain and weight loss. Our bodies are bombarded by toxins from a variety of sources, including food, the air we breathe, and the products we use. These toxins can accumulate in our bodies over time and can disrupt our hormonal balance, metabolism, and immune system, which can lead to weight gain. However, by reducing our exposure to toxins and supporting our body's natural detoxification processes, we can improve our overall health and promote weight loss.
To show us some simple and practical lifestyle changes, we invited Dr. Wendie Trubow back to the show. Dr. Wendie is the co-author of Dirty Girl: Ditch the Toxins, Look Great, and Feel Freaking Amazing. She joins the show to share how she overcame her own struggles with mold and metal toxicity, Celiac disease, and her other health issues all brought on by toxin overload.

The Link Between Autoimmunity and Weight Gain
Autoimmunity and our weight are linked in several ways. Autoimmune disorders are conditions in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own healthy tissues, causing inflammation and damage. Many autoimmune disorders are associated with weight, and in order to resolve them both, we need to get to the root cause of the autoimmunity.
To break down all the ways in which autoimmunity and weight loss are linked, we invited Dr. Krista Coombs to the show. Dr. Coombs joins the show to share how she has integrated her two decades of experience with Eastern science philosophies and the cutting edge concepts and practices of Functional medicine to help her clients reset their metabolism with foundational approaches which also heals significant chronic conditions. -
Permission to Eat: How to Give Yourself the Green Light
In the world we live in that's dominated by diet culture, it often feels like we can't operate without some form of restriction when it comes to what we eat. So when the concept of intuitive eating comes up, many of us just don't feel comfortable trusting our natural instincts and listen to the hints our body suggests. Intuitive eating also doesn't mean that we can eat whatever, whenever and however much we want mindlessly.
To help us navigate this artform, we invited Kim Hynes to the show. Kim is a health coach who specializes in coaching busy women over 40 who desire to give themselves permission to eat, lose weight intuitively, and reduce stress. She accomplishes this by helping her clients identify natural hunger and fullness signals, as well as their own preferences and cravings while ditching restrictive dieting rules.
