  E173 | Ask Us Anything Part 2: More Midlife Health Myths Unpacked

  Aug 20, 202632 minS2

  Share Your Thoughts! Peptides, GLP-1s, carb fear, menopause facial hair, and the dreaded “I’m doing everything” weight plateau all show up in the same place: a health world overflowing with confident advice that often ignores context. We pick up the second half of our Ask Us Anything with a grounded take on what actually helps midlife women feel better, get stronger, and make progress without getting pulled into expensive trends or fear-based rules. We start with peptides and the bigger issue behind them: the rise of “Big Wellness.” We talk about why buying peptides off the internet is a hard no, why medical supervision matters, and why there’s still no free lunch when it comes to long-term risk. From there we move into midlife nutrition, explaining why carbohydrates can be a powerful tool for active women, gut health, fiber, and training performance, and how to reintroduce carbs slowly without panicking about temporary water weight. We also share practical food choices and pairing strategies to support steadier blood sugar. Next we tackle building visible muscle in your 60s, including anabolic resistance, progressive resistance training, protein needs, and why strength matters beyond aesthetics for bone health, glucose disposal, and independence. Then we break down the most common reasons the scale stalls despite effort, from timeline and tracking bias to sleep, stress, medications, thyroid issues, insulin resistance, and the need for better data. We close with nuanced answers on menopause facial hair, preventing hair loss and micronutrient deficiencies on GLP-1 medication, and when a bedtime snack can actually improve sleep. If this helped you cut through the noise, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so more women can find trustworthy midlife health guidance.

  E172 | Ask Us Anything Is Back!

  Aug 13, 202625 min

  Share Your Thoughts! We answer rapid-fire midlife health questions with a simple filter: stop searching for one universal rule and start matching the tool to the person. We walk through hair loss after estradiol, when HRT makes sense, how to use GLP-1s safely, and why carbs and protein still matter when you want strength and energy. • hair shedding after starting an estradiol patch and why timing can mislead • hair loss basics including telogen effluvium, stress lag, ferritin and thyroid checks • EAAs explained, why leucine is not enough, powder vs pill practicality • deciding when to start HRT based on symptoms, quality of life, risks, route, dose • GLP-1 medications as a tool alongside lifestyle, not instead of it • protein, resistance training, adequate intake, and monitoring as non-negotiables on GLP-1s • sore teeth and oral sensitivity, plus the need to rule out dental causes first • hormonal IUD vs micronized oral progesterone, local vs systemic effects, tolerability • peptides like BPC-157, KPV, TB-500 and the gap between animal data and human evidence • carbs in midlife, glycogen and water weight, gradual reintroduction, higher-quality sources If you can think of any other questions that these sparked today that you want to add to our next Ask Us Anything episode, please message us. We'd love to hear. And as always, rate and review, send us all those five stars, and we will see you next time.

  E171 | Stop The Comparison Spiral

  Aug 6, 202632 minS2

  Share Your Thoughts! One scroll can flip the switch from “I’m doing fine” to “I’m failing” and your body reacts like it’s danger. We get honest about comparison, why it hits so hard for women, and how it quietly sabotages your health journey through stress, urgency, and plan-hopping. We also celebrate a fun life update with Dr. Lindsay stepping fully into her new title, then we pivot into a topic we see constantly in real client conversations. We define comparison as measuring your worth or progress against someone else’s visible life, not their full reality. That’s why Instagram before-and-after photos, gym selfies, and perfectly staged meal prep can trigger shame, panic, and the “I should be doing what she’s doing” spiral. We walk through the full comparison loop (trigger, thought, feeling, behavior, aftermath) and explain the “comparison hangover” that lingers long after you put your phone down. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body, anxious about your timeline, or tempted to swing into extreme restriction or over-exercising, you’ll recognize the pattern fast. Then we get practical. We share a simple nervous system friendly pattern interrupt: pause, name, redirect. You’ll learn how to decode envy as useful data, choose values over metrics, and take one aligned action that builds self-trust instead of panic. We also give you a weekly “comparison audit” to pinpoint your triggers, the exact story you tell yourself, and what you actually want underneath it all. If this hits home, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave us a five-star review so more women can find the tools to stay in their own lane.

  E170 | Root Cause and Corrine's Success Story: Blood Work, Lifestyle Optimization, and Overcoming Psychological Barriers (E72 REPLAY)

  Jul 30, 202624 minS2

  Share Your Thoughts! You can’t “lab test” your way out of poor sleep, chronic stress, or diet culture rules that keep you stuck, and you also can’t mindset your way out of a real metabolic problem. That’s why we’re laying out what we mean by a true root cause approach to women’s health and sustainable weight loss, and why it’s bigger than a single blood draw or a one-time nutrition plan. Today's show is a replay from Season 1. Lindsey walks through the three-part framework: comprehensive blood work (thyroid health, hormone health, insulin resistance, inflammation markers, cortisol and stress markers, plus core labs like cholesterol and organ function), deep lifestyle coaching (weekly calls and daily check-ins to find the real friction points), and mindset work (the beliefs and old experiences that make “healthy” feel unsafe or impossible). We talk about how training and nutrition should match your age, recovery, and injuries, and why “eat less and work out more” often backfires. Then you’ll hear a client story from Corinne, that puts it all into motion. At the time of recording, she’s heading toward her 60th birthday, dealing with knee replacements, and watching her numbers trend the wrong way despite doing everything she was told. After committing to a food-first plan and moderate exercise, she drops 26 pounds in under nine weeks, lowers fat mass, gains skeletal muscle, and does it without Ozempic, punishing workouts, or feeling hungry. We also get real about trust, misinformation online, and why a supportive coach can be the difference between quitting early and finally getting results. If this resonates, subscribe, share this with a friend who feels stuck, and leave a review so more women can find a smarter path to better health.

  E169 | Behind The Scenes Lab Review (REPLAY E101)

  Jul 23, 202632 minS2

  Share Your Thoughts! Your routine can be dialed in, your workouts consistent, your food choices careful and your sleep “pretty good” and you can still feel tired, inflamed, and stuck. That disconnect is exactly why we recorded this behind-the-scenes look at how we run and review functional lab testing inside Rejuvenating Health. In today's replay episode, Lindsey and Laken use Laken’s own blood work to show what we look for, what “optimal” really means, and how to translate biomarkers into practical, sustainable moves. We start with metabolic health and insulin markers, because fasting glucose and A1C can look perfect while fasting insulin quietly climbs. We talk about what that can mean for cravings, afternoon slumps, fatigue, and inflammation, plus why stress can push blood sugar and insulin higher even when nutrition is solid. From there we move into thyroid function testing the way it should be done: a full thyroid panel with free T4, free T3, reverse T3, antibodies, and the conversion story that often explains low energy and slow metabolism better than TSH ever will. Then we dig into nutrient markers and inflammation clues like ferritin and liver enzymes, and we open up the hormone conversation with cycle day 21 labs, luteal-phase estrogen and progesterone, and the realities of low testosterone in women. We unpack DHEA, pregnenolone, and testosterone replacement as personalized tools, not trends, and we explain why there’s rarely a single “magic pill” hiding in your lab report. You’ll also hear the exact kind of step-by-step strategy we use with clients: protein-forward mornings, blood sugar stability, realistic stress support, vitamin D absorption tweaks, and food-first folate boosts that fit real life. If your body is sending signals, this is your sign to stop guessing and start measuring. Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s doing “everything right” but still feels off, and leave us a five-star review so more women can find smarter lab-based coaching.
