In this episode, we dive into the powerful connection between chronic inflammation and aging, uncovering the science behind how long-term inflammation impacts cellular health, metabolism, and the immune system.

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a critical protein that plays a key role in brain function, neuroplasticity, and overall cognitive health.

	04 Nov 2024	Breaking the Cycle: Stress, Thyroid Health, and the Adrenal Connection	00:36:45
In this episode, we’re diving into the complex relationship between stress, thyroid health, and the adrenal glands, focusing on how they’re all interconnected within the body’s delicate endocrine system. Chronic stress can significantly impact thyroid function, often leading to imbalances that result in symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, and low energy. This connection, known as HPA axis dysfunction, affects communication between the brain and adrenal glands, creating a cycle that can lead to burnout, adrenal fatigue, and thyroid issues. We'll discuss how stress can disrupt thyroid health by suppressing TSH, impairing T3 to T4 conversion, and increasing resistance to thyroid hormones. You’ll learn how to identify often-overlooked symptoms, why many standard approaches miss the bigger picture, why functional medicine emphasizes a whole-body approach, and strategies you can use to break this cycle—such as stress management, targeted nutrition, and lifestyle adjustments. Plus, I’ll introduce my new book, Optimal You, a comprehensive guide designed to help you understand your body’s unique needs. By addressing root causes, you’ll gain practical tools to support thyroid and adrenal health, boosting your energy, mood, and overall resilience.

	11 Nov 2024	Chronic Fatigue and The Cost of Hustling	00:52:43
In this episode, we dive into the journey of Karly Arber, a former investment banker who thrived in a high-stress, male-dominated environment—until she didn’t. While she loved her work, the constant pressure to hustle, compete, and prioritize others over herself eventually led her down a path of burnout and chronic fatigue. She shares her personal story of feeling trapped in the “hamster wheel” of the corporate world, where setting boundaries was far easier for her male colleagues. Navigating this landscape often meant suppressing her own intuitive, feminine strengths, which only deepened her disconnection from herself and her well-being. At her breaking point—bed-bound and diagnosed with chronic fatigue—she began the journey of transformation. She discovered the power of curating a lifestyle that supported her health and happiness rather than undermining it. Now, with non-negotiables firmly in place and a renewed trust in her intuition, she explains how small, intentional changes have reshaped her life. Tune in to learn how small, purposeful shifts, rather than radical overhauls, can create a life that aligns with who you are at your core. She shares powerful insights on using intuition as a guiding tool, setting boundaries that honor your needs, and designing a lifestyle that reflects your own vision—not the expectations of others.

	31 Mar 2025	Is Reverse T3 Blocking Your Thyroid Healing?	00:26:06
Have you been told your thyroid labs look "normal," yet you're still struggling with fatigue, brain fog, stubborn weight gain, or sluggish digestion? The problem might not be your TSH or T4—it could be Reverse T3 blocking your thyroid healing. In this episode, we explain the hidden role of Reverse T3 in slowing metabolism and preventing active T3 from doing its job. You will learn why Reverse T3 rises, how stress, inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, and environmental toxins can trigger it, and why most conventional thyroid panels miss this critical marker. High Reverse T3 can mimic hypothyroid symptoms, even when your TSH and T4 levels appear normal, leaving you feeling exhausted, foggy, and stuck in survival mode. Most importantly, we share actionable steps to lower Reverse T3 naturally, including diet, stress management, proper testing, and functional medicine strategies to rebalance your thyroid. If you're tired of feeling unwell despite “normal” lab results, this episode is a must-listen. Take control of your thyroid health and start feeling like yourself again!
