Burnout, Bloating, and Aging: Unlocking the Hidden Keys to Healing with Nurse Georgie McNiff, RN
Manage episode 490761202 series 3668633
In this deeply eye opening episode of Glow Wild, Nicole sits down with the brilliant and deeply compassionate Nurse Georgie—a functional medicine practitioner, hormone whisperer, and both a certified nurse and nutritionist. Together, they crack the code on why so many of us feel exhausted, stuck in a weight-loss cycle that doesn’t work, and mentally foggy despite our best efforts. And, anti-aging from the inside out.
We dive into:
- How chronic stress hijacks your hormones and rewires your brain
- Why insulin resistance and adrenal burnout are often misdiagnosed or ignored
- The misunderstood role of cortisol, estrogen, and overall wellbeing
- What actually happens to our bodies during perimenopause and beyond
- Why traditional weight-loss and dieting isn't always successful for every body.
- Natural, evidence-based supplements that support your body’s healing from the inside out
