Ever wondered how a nutritionist approaches their own hormone-healing journey? 

In part 2 of this updates episode I'm revealing:

• The labs that finally gave me some clarity about my persistent acne, hair loss, and intense pms.
• The protocols I'm putting myself through to address estrogen dominance, MTHFR and detox issues, hypothyroidism, and leaky gut.
• The simple diet shift that finally helped me turn a corner with symptoms that have stuck around through dozens of healing protocols.

I also shared the exciting news that starting in Jul...

Do you ever have those moments in life where it feels like everything - and I mean everything - is going through massive transformation and you’re just trying to keep pace with the momentum that’s building?

On the one hand you’re excited because it feels like you’re swiftly moving towards the life you envisioned for yourself, but also you’re trying not to drown in the intensity of all the change?

That’s what the last 3 months have looked like for me.

I’ve been more dialed in with my health than ever, finding answers that have evaded me fo...

Last week I started sharing the best biohacks for women (because we are not just small men and what we need to thrive looks very different from cold plunges and not eating 'til noon).

They were my takeaways from the Health Optimization Summit where I got to chat with some of the most intelligent, forward-thinking hormone experts in the world. 

Didn't catch part one? Click here to listen (trust me you don't want to skip it). 

Been there done that? Let's jump into the second half of my list...

5. Wear my glasses as little as possible.

Stop the presses! It’s confirmed!

Optimizing health looks different for men than it does for women (particularly hypothyroid women in their reproductive years). 😱

The very “hacks” that leave men feeling energized and lean - cold plunges and 16+ hour fasts come to mind - are actually detrimental for our far more sensitive hormonal systems.

So what should WE do if we want to biohack our way to healthier hormones and slower aging?

I sifted through all my lecture notes from The Health Optimization Summit where I got to see some of the wor...

Last week we started a deep dive conversation on the 5 root causes that drive Hashimoto's so you can be empowered to address them and significantly reduce - if not entirely demolish - stubborn symptoms.

3. Chronic Stress: The Silent Thyroid Killer

We often think of stress as a mental health issue, but stress has a direct biochemical impact on your thyroid—and it’s a HUGE factor in trigger...

 Did you know most doctors won’t test for Hashimoto’s in their hypothyroid patients because it doesn’t change their course of treatment? Regardless of why you’re hypothyroid, they’re going to do one thing and one thing only: put you on thyroid medication. 

This is a massive disservice to us hypothyroid warriors given the fact that roughly 95% of hypothyroid cases are caused by hashimoto’s (if you’re unfamiliar, hashimoto’s is an autoimmune disease where the body attacks your thyroid gland). 

If we know why our thyroid is malfunctioning, we...

I just came back from a 7-day cruise and on the last night my friend Jose asked how disciplined I felt like I was during the trip. 

I said, “I don’t know that ‘disciplined’ is the right word.” Discipline in this context implies willpower, sacrifice, and strict rules. That really doesn’t describe my experience on board. 

The right word? Mindful. Here’s how this looked in practice…

Mindful of my hunger and satiety cues.

With lots of all-you-can-eat buffets it would be easy to go overboard (pun intended). So I regularly asked myself if I wa...

If I told you there was a pill that would help you lose weight, reduce cravings, improve blood sugar balance, slow signs of aging, give you energy, boost your mood, aid in recovery, increase immune function, enhance learning, memory, and motor skills, improve exercise performance, detoxify your body, and potentially prevent diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia, you'd probably be jumping in line willing to pay a pretty penny for that pill. Am I right?

The good news is you don't have to pay a dime and you don't have to swallow a pill. Turns...

 If you're hypothyroid, standard weight loss advice probably pisses you off...

Some gym bro on the Internet is telling you to just eat less, workout harder, track your macros, and only eat during x hours.

Been there, done that. It isn’t. fucking. working.

In fact, if you're following that advice, it's probably pushing you deeper into your plateau. But we'll get to that in a minute.

This is why I decided to create my ‘Why Can’t I Lose Weight Nutrition Intensive’. To not only give clarity as to why everything you’ve tried hasn’t worked. Bu...

I remember sitting in my college apartment listening to a woman on a podcast talking about how she healed her Hashimoto's. 

It took her years, but she did it. 

It felt so daunting, so long, so out of reach to me. 

I literally couldn’t fathom a life without crippling fatigue, without embarrassing digestive issues. I couldn’t imagine going to the gym without worrying that it would cause a flare or being happy with what I saw in the mirror.  

I couldn’t imagine escaping this box that Hashimoto's kept me in. This box that kept me small, and ...
