206: Metabolism, Hormones & Functional Nutrition for Women over 40 with Dani Conway

206: Metabolism, Hormones & Functional Nutrition for Women over 40 with Dani Conway

Hi friends!

I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today we are talking all about metabolism, hormones, and what it actually takes to feel good in your body after 40!

I’m sitting down with Dani Conway, board certified functional nutrition practitioner and founder of Nutrition the Natural Way. Dani lost 65 pounds herself after years of yo-yo dieting and gut and hormone struggles, and she has since spent her career helping thousands of women do the same. Her approach is rooted in testing, not guessing, and she has years of experience transforming thousands of women’s lives. I think you’re going to love her.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the “right” things but still feel stuck, exhausted, or like your metabolism just isn’t cooperating the way it used to, then check out what we chat about:

  • Why low calorie and low fat dieting can actually damage your metabolism long term and what to do instead
  • The role of protein and healthy fats in hormone production and sustainable weight loss
  • Why nutrition is the foundation everything else builds on, including gut health and hormone balance
  • How Dani approaches macros with her clients, from lower carb all the way to carnivore, and why there is no one-size-fits-all
  • Functional lab testing and why “testing not guessing” changes everything
  • The connection between gut health, hormones, and stubborn weight that won’t budge
  • Her take on peptides, which ones she uses with clients, why she always starts with minimum effective dose, and what to watch out for on social media
  • Her thoughts on GLP-1s and why they are never her first recommendation
  • How to know when your body is actually ready for more advanced interventions

And so much more.

It was so so great getting to talk with Dani and I hope you love this episode! If you’ve ever felt like you’ve tried everything and your body just isn’t responding, this one is for you!

Discover The World’s Smallest “Mountain” – The Mount Paltry

Discover The World’s Smallest “Mountain” – The Mount Paltry Move over Everest, there’s a new headline-grabber in town and it’s barely taller than you are. Mount Paltry has exploded on social media as the world’s smallest mountain , a tiny bump in Australia that has become internet-famous precisely because it looks… well, not very mountain-like at all. In a world obsessed with extreme hikes and record-breaking peaks, this modest mound has captured global attention by doing the exact opposite: being proudly underwhelming. Where on Earth Is Mount Paltry? Mount Paltry is described in viral posts as a miniature mountain in Australia, rising only a few metres above the surrounding land. It’s usually shown as a small, rounded rise in an otherwise flat landscape the kind of bump you might expect to call a hill, or even “just a bit of ground,” rather than a mountain. That’s exactly why people love it: the contrast between the dramatic title “world’s smallest mountain” and the very ordinar...

Glamorous Plus-Size Wedding Guest Dresses in Beautiful Styles

Glamorous Plus-Size Wedding Guest Dresses in Beautiful Styles Did you know that over 67% of women in the U.S. wear a size 14 or larger? Yet, despite the demand, the fashion industry has been slow to provide elegant, well-fitting, and on-trend plus- size wedding guest dresses. Many women face limited choices, ill-fitting designs, and outdated silhouettes that fail to highlight their curves. Shopping for the perfect dress can feel like navigating a minefield either the options lack style, the fit is off, or the available dresses don’t align with the formality of the event. For years, plus-size women have been told to “hide” their curves instead of celebrating them. Traditional formalwear often lacks the structure, comfort, or aesthetic appeal needed to make plus-size wedding guests feel just as glamorous as their straight-size counterparts. The frustration of sifting through uninspiring racks, struggling with restrictive fabrics, or settling for ill- proportioned designs is all too fami...
