    134. Still Not Losing Weight? These 5 Metabolism Myths Are to Blame (Not Your Willpower)
    Mar 10 2026
    Metabolism affects everything: your energy, fat burning, cravings, sleep, stress response, and even how "resistant" weight loss can feel. If you're dealing with fatigue, brain fog, low energy, bloating, or that frustrating sense that your body is working against you—this episode is for you. Have you ever wondered why you can be eating "healthy," watching portions, and still feel stuck with weight loss resistance… especially in perimenopause? Or why stress seems to hijack your metabolism, your gut health, and your hormones all at once? Today I'm giving you a deep, practical look at what metabolism actually is, why calorie counting often backfires, and what your body needs to restore hormone balance, digestive health, and metabolic momentum. I also bust the biggest myths that keep women defeated—like the idea that your metabolism "crashes" at middle age—and I walk you through what's really happening when stress, sleep quality, inflammation, IBS symptoms, and blood sugar swings start shaping the way your body stores fat and produces energy. You'll come away understanding the "why" behind your exhaustion and what's quietly blocking your metabolic potential. Key points you'll hear inside the episode The simple metabolism definition that changes everything—and why it's not just "calories in, calories out" when you're dealing with fatigue, hormone balance issues, and weight loss resistance The surprising research on metabolism and aging (and why perimenopause isn't a "metabolism death sentence," even if it feels like one) The stress–sleep–metabolism loop: how chronic stress and poor sleep quality can shut down fat burning, increase cravings, and worsen brain fog and low energy Why focusing on digestive health, gut microbiome support, and food quality can shift metabolism—without obsessing over calorie counting Metabolism isn't a punishment your body hands you. It's a system you can work with. And once you understand how metabolism, hormones, stress, sleep, and gut health connect, it becomes easier to stop blaming yourself and start changing the conditions that are keeping you stuck. In this episode, I'll help you reframe the entire metabolism conversation—especially if you've been told you're "just getting older," that it's menopause, that it's your genetics, or that you simply need more willpower. Your body isn't broken. More often, it's responding exactly as it was designed to respond… to chronic stress, poor sleep, inflammation, low-quality fuel, and a life that keeps your nervous system stuck in overdrive. If you're ready to feel more energized, clearer, and more in control of your appetite, cravings, and digestion—press play. I'll give you the "what" and the "why" so you finally understand what's driving your fatigue and weight loss resistance, and you'll hear the practical next steps inside the recording. Your metabolism is working for you every second of the day. Let's start supporting it like it deserves. Stop wasting time (and money) on products that don't work.

  • 133. Still Following Old Health Advice? The New Rules Women Need

    133. Still Following Old Health Advice? The New Rules Women Need
    Feb 24 2026
    Fatigue, hormone balance, gut health, and weight loss resistance all get a lot louder in midlife — and if you've ever wondered why you're doing "all the right things" but still dealing with brain fog, low energy, IBS, bloating, or that exhausted, wired feeling, this episode is going to land in a big way. In this conversation, I'm joined by health journalist Meghan Rabbitt (who's spent nearly 25 years interviewing top experts) to talk about the new rules women need to know to protect their health across the lifespan — especially through perimenopause, menopause, and everything that can shift your metabolism, stress response, digestive health, and sense of clarity. What I love about Meghan's work is how she brings evidence-based reporting into real life, so you can walk into your next appointment feeling confident, informed, and ready to advocate for yourself. If you've ever left a doctor's office feeling dismissed… or you've brushed off your own symptoms because your labs look "normal"… you're going to feel seen here. We get into what women commonly miss in midlife (and why it matters), how to make sense of conflicting health advice online, and what it actually looks like to become the CEO of your own healthcare — without feeling overwhelmed. Key points (listen for the details inside the episode) The "CEO of your health" mindset that can shift everything — especially when fatigue, hormone imbalance, and digestive issues start stacking up Why women normalize pain, exhaustion, and heavy symptoms — and how that can quietly worsen outcomes over time The simple research skill that helps you filter misinformation, make smarter choices, and protect your brain health and metabolism The midlife missed opportunity that can impact cognitive decline, energy, hormone balance, and long-term health — and what to do differently now Why this matters if you're navigating fatigue, hormone balance, and gut health in midlife A lot of women hit perimenopause and suddenly their usual strategies stop working. Energy drops. Brain fog creeps in. Bloating and digestive issues get louder. IBS flares. Weight loss resistance shows up out of nowhere. And the frustrating part is that it can all look "fine" on standard labs — which leads to the classic spiral of self-doubt: maybe this is just what midlife feels like. This episode is a reset. Not because we're handing you a complicated protocol, but because we're talking about the foundation: how to understand your body well enough to ask better questions, get better care, and stop dismissing symptoms that are trying to give you information. We also talk about the "why" behind the habits you hear about all the time — movement, strength training, and the real brain-protective benefits of exercise. Because when you understand the reason something matters, you're far more likely to follow through (and you're less likely to get pulled into the hype of whatever the latest online trend is). And if stress has been a constant for you — the kind that affects sleep and hormones, increases inflammation, shifts cortisol, and disrupts the gut-brain connection — you'll appreciate the way we frame personal advocacy. The goal isn't to do everything perfectly. The goal is to know what matters, prioritize what's most relevant to your symptoms, and take one steady step at a time. This is the kind of episode that makes you want to hit play, grab a note app, and walk into your next appointment with a completely different level of clarity.

    132. The Wellness Guru You Trust Is Playing You
    Feb 10 2026
    If you're dealing with fatigue, brain fog, or stubborn gut health issues that your doctor keeps brushing off, you've probably done what millions of women do. You went searching for answers online. You found the podcasts, the wellness influencers, the experts with millions of followers confidently telling you which supplements to take, which protocols to follow, which products will finally fix your metabolism, your hormones, your energy. But here's a question worth sitting with: do the people giving you health advice actually have your best interest at heart—or are you part of a very profitable machine? This week, something hit the news that stopped me in my tracks and made me realize we need to have this conversation. Because when you're exhausted, when you're dealing with weight loss resistance or digestive issues that won't quit, when you're in perimenopause and just trying to feel like yourself again, you're vulnerable. And there are people who know exactly how to use that. KEY POINTS The staggering amount of money some wellness podcasters makeWhy the confident health advice flooding your feed was never designed for your body, your hormones, or your stress levelsThe difference between education and manipulation when you're searching for answers about gut health, bloating, or low energyOne simple shift that puts you back in control of your own health decisions Your body is yours. Your health decisions are yours. And the person most qualified to figure out what's right for you—with the right support and information—is you. I recorded this episode because I'm seeing too many women come to me overwhelmed, confused, and carrying bags full of supplements they bought from strangers on the internet who know nothing about their hormone balance, their gut-brain connection, or what's actually driving their exhaustion. You deserve better than that. You deserve to trust yourself more than you trust the algorithm. Hit play—this one might change how you consume health content forever. WellPower is a free health magazine by Dr. Meg Mill, packed with expert insights, in-depth articles, and practical tips on hormone balance, gut health, and metabolic wellness for women in perimenopause and beyond.
