Ever feel “off” in midlife but can’t quite explain why? You’re not alone—and you’re not stuck. In this episode, functional health practitioner Dee Davidson joins me to explore why so many midlife women feel out of sync, struggle with hot flashes, and don’t feel like themselves.

But here’s the game-changer: Hot flashes and hormone symptoms aren’t something you have to just live with. Dee breaks down how seemingly small choices, especially around blood sugar and protein intake, can make a huge difference—and how learning to trust what your body is telling you can be the start of real transformation.

💛 This conversation is about reclaiming how you feel and deciding that midlife gets to feel amazing.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:

✔ Why symptoms like bloating, poor sleep, and hot flashes are messages from your body, not just “part of aging”
✔ How blood sugar regulation affects hot flashes, sleep, and overall hormone balance
✔ How to think about protein in a smarter way (hint: it’s more than just eggs)
✔ The importance of the being part of your day, not just the doing

🎯 OMG Moment: Your hot flashes, headaches, or sleepless nights are not just a nuisance—they’re a signal from your body asking you to listen and respond with care.

Take Action
Start with one meal. Aim for 25–30 grams of protein in your breakfast and see how your energy, focus, and hormone symptoms shift. Not sure where to start? Use AI to help build personalized ideas based on the foods you already enjoy.
