Peptides are everywhere right now.

Over the past week I attended a three day seminar teaching coaches how to add peptides to their business. The results being presented were impressive and the money being made in this space is even more impressive.

So I had to ask myself the question, should I be offering peptides to my clients?

In this episode I take you behind the scenes of what I learned and why I ultimately decided not to jump into the peptide gold rush.

This isn’t about saying peptides don’t work. They absolutely have their place. But the truth is my clients are already getting incredible results without injections, GLP-1 medications, or expensive peptide stacks.

Inside this episode I share why I’m sticking with the methods that already work for women in menopause, nutrition, strength training, lifestyle, and mindset.

One of my clients recently lost 15 pounds in nine weeks, and many women in my program lose 5 to 9 pounds in just two weeks using our rapid fat loss protocol once their metabolism is primed.

And that’s exactly what we focus on.

If you’ve been struggling with stubborn weight gain in menopause and feel like the rules have completely changed, you’re not crazy. They have.

I’m inviting you to my free 3-day workshop where I’ll show you exactly how we approach nutrition, training, and mindset for women in menopause.

You’ll walk away with your own macro targets, a 3-day strength training plan, and the mindset tools to finally stop the cycle of dieting and self sabotage.

In this episode of Mastering Menopause, I’m sharing a huge takeaway from a last minute health and mindset conference I attended in St. George, Utah, hosted by Jimmy Rex.

We get into what surprised me most, the speakers who completely blew me away, and why the real theme of the weekend wasn’t just “health hacks,” it was mindset, neuroplasticity, and the power of the story you tell yourself.

I also talk candidly about peptides, GLP 1s, and why I’m cautious about how they’re being marketed online. This is not something you dabble in for 30 days and suddenly become an expert. If you’re considering peptides, this episode will help you think smarter about safety, sourcing, blood work, and why foundational habits still matter most.

Highlights include:
• How building muscle and longevity should be the real goal in midlife
• A powerful neuroplasticity story from Dancing with the Stars alum Ashley Diallo
• Gut health insights that go beyond symptom chasing and get to root cause
• Why labs and individualized protocols matter before trying any intervention
• A jaw dropping story from Nick Yarris about survival, resilience, and mental strength
• How the weekend reignited my motivation to finish my book

I’m making a strong case for tracking macros, especially for women in their 50s who feel stuck, frustrated, and tired of dieting.

If you’re still counting calories, guessing your protein, or saying “I eat pretty healthy” but not seeing results, this episode will open your eyes. I break down why tracking macros gives you real data instead of assumptions, how it helps you increase your metabolism safely, and why it’s actually the fastest and most enjoyable way to lose fat.

I talk about:
• The difference between counting calories and tracking macros
• Why most women dramatically underestimate protein
• Why I start clients in a maintenance phase before fat loss
• How tracking leads to true food freedom
• How our clients lose weight and maintain it without tracking

Tracking isn’t about obsession. It’s about information. And information gives you power.

If you’re ready to stop guessing, stop chronically dieting, and finally learn how to lose weight in a way you can maintain, this episode is for you.
