EPISODE SUMMARY

How often do you think about the connection between what you eat and how you feel—not just in the moment, but the next day, or even years down the line? 

As women, especially in midlife, our relationship with food and our bodies is constantly evolving.

But what if you could harness that evolution to feel better than ever?

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Mindy Pelz, best-selling author of Eat Like a Girl, as we uncover the secrets to transforming your relationship with food so that it works for you—not against you

Dr. Mindy shares her personal journey with fasting, emotional eating, and how she learned to truly nourish her body in midlife for lasting energy, metabolic flexibility, and vibrant health.

Together, we break down the myths about “eating perfectly.”

And why SO many women unknowingly sabotage their metabolism. 

You’ll walk away with simple, powerful strategies that you can start using today to finally break free from that cycle—for good.

Tune in if you’re ready to enjoy every bite while unlocking better energy, hormones, and resilience!

QUOTES

“Your blood sugar is the ultimate biomarker of your cellular energy and metabolism. Regulating it changes everything—from your hormones to your mental clarity.”

“We’ve all done things like grabbing a snack to ‘push through’ the afternoon slump, but there are better ways to reset your energy—movement, hydration, or just a quick 10-minute walk.”

“When we stop treating food as the enemy and start understanding what our body needs, we begin to thrive, even in midlife.”

“Women’s bodies are always evolving. Learning to nourish yourself based on your current needs is how we cultivate true energy and resilience.”
