• 663: From Wired and Tired to Calm and Energized: The GABA-Mitochondria Connection + How to Fix It at the Cellular Level with Dr. Scott Sherr

  Ever feel wired… yet exhausted? Or anxious… yet depleted? In this episode, I’m sitting down with Dr. Scott Sherr, a visionary physician and expert in cutting-edge mitochondrial and nervous system healing, and he unpacks why so many women in midlife feel overstimulated and underpowered at the same time.  We dive into the role of GABA, the calming neurotransmitter your body craves, and why it’s often depleted during midlife, contributing to the anxiety, insomnia, and mood dips that leave you feeling unlike yourself.  Dr. Sherr also explains how mitochondrial dysfunction silently sabotages your energy, sleep, and even your joy—and what you can do to restore it naturally and effectively.  This conversation is packed with practical, science-backed strategies to help you step out of the cycle of stress and burnout and into a state of calm, clear, vibrant energy.  Ready to reclaim your vitality at every age?

And some of those hormones that are transitioning as you go through the perimenopausal state are a big part of this.” If we really want to focus on holistically improving your sleep, relationships, and energy,  the primary focus needs to be downregulating your sympathetic nervous system and increasing your parasympathetic with the GABA enhancement aspect.” “That's a really cool way of holistically enhancing the GABA system without causing GABA depletion or GABA deficiency on its own.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Troscriptions: use code ENERGIZED for 10% off all things in the store!  Home Hope Org Dr. Scott Sherr’s Website  Dr. Scott’s Instagram  Preorder The Perimenopause Revolution HERE RELATED EPISODES  #635: The Connection Between Your Gut, Inflammation, Mood, and How to Start Healing Your Microbiome with Tina Anderson#648: This Changes Everything: The Perimenopause Revolution Every Woman Needs Now#609: Non-Negotiable Advice I Would Give My Early Perimenopausal Self#572: How to Know You are in Perimenopause Including the 40+ Symptoms Associated with Declining Hormones

  Ever find yourself standing in the pantry late at night, mindlessly eating your favorite salty snack straight from the bag? Been there! 👋  But we all know that’s not the best thing we could be doing for our metabolic health. Today, I’m joined by Amber Romaniuk, an Emotional Eating, Digestive, and Hormone Expert, for a raw and empowering conversation on why so many women—especially in midlife—feel stuck in cycles of emotional eating just as hormones, energy, and motivation start to shift.  We explore why this struggle isn’t about willpower, but a deeper call for healing, and how your body’s cravings are often tied to hidden hormone chaos during perimenopause and menopause.  Amber shares her own powerful journey of breaking free from binge eating while healing her gut and hormones, and offers practical tools to help you build trust with your body again.

Their cravings start to drop. They have less urge to emotionally eat or binge.” “There's gonna be many levels of dealing with that trigger, including probably hormone support and reprioritizing yourself on your schedule, which is going to take time setting boundaries.” “Be patient, ladies. It's not about willpower, it's not about trying harder. It’s about knowing this kind of vulnerable time and going, ‘Okay, maybe I wanna build this time a little differently. If I know I'm vulnerable, what would be a habit or a self-care practice just to help me through this time?’” RESOURCES MENTIONED Schedule a 30-minute complimentary Body Freedom Session HERE Amber’s Website Amber’s Podcast: The No Sugar Coating Podcast Amber’s YouTube Channel   Amber on Instagram Preorder The Perimenopause Revolution HERE!

• 659: Brain Fog, Joint Pain, and Aging Skin? The Truth About Zombie Cells and How to Reverse Them with Dr. Greg Kelly

  Joint aches. Softer muscles. Saggy skin. Brain fog.  Dealing with these not-so-fun issues in midlife? Trust me, you’re not the only one. But… these changes aren’t “just a part of getting older”. In this podcast, I’m joined by the brilliant Dr. Greg Kelly, Senior VP of Product Development at Qualia Life and a leader in anti-aging and cellular health, to unpack the powerful concept of cellular senescence, also known as “zombie cells.”  These cells don’t die when they should, sticking around to cause inflammation, slow down your metabolism, and accelerate aging in your skin, joints, muscles, and brain.  The good news? You’re not powerless! Dr. Kelly shares how senolytics—natural compounds that help your body clear out zombie cells—can dramatically shift how you age, supporting your body’s innate ability to regenerate.  If you’ve been feeling like your body is betraying you, this episode will bring hope and science-backed strategies to help you feel vibrant, clear-headed, and strong again. Tune in now! Gregory Kelly N.D. Dr. Gregory Kelly is a naturopathic physician, the SVP of Product Development at Qualia Life, and the author of the book Shape Shift. He was the editor of the journal Alternative Medicine Review and has been an instructor at the University of Bridgeport in the College of Naturopathic Medicine. Dr. Kelly has published hundreds of articles on natural medicine and nutrition, contributed three chapters to the Textbook of Natural Medicine, and has more than 30 journal articles indexed on PubMed.

So this seemed like it made a big benefit.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Get your Qualia Life Senolytic at 15% off HERE!  Qualia Life Website   Qualia Life Instagram  Qualia Life YouTube Channel  Pre-order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution HERE  RELATED EPISODES  #653: Mitochondria, Menopause & Metabolism: The Cellular Secret to More Energy After 40 with Dr. Felice Gersh #649: How To Reverse Your Biological Age + 5 Science-Backed Longevity Tips Every Woman Should Know with Leslie Kenny 640: Unveiling The Essential Role of Minerals For Cellular Energy And Detoxification with Caroline Alan 655: The Hidden Truth About Perimenopause That No One’s Talking About (And Why It Changes Everything About How You Age)
