The Fueled & Free Podcast ·

2025/10/29

In this episode, Margaret unpacks one of the most overlooked pieces of women’s health, and that is detoxification. She explains why perimenopause creates the “perfect storm” for toxin buildup, hormonal chaos, and inflammation, and how to support your body through this transition with practical, sustainable strategies. From the liver-gut connection to emotional release, Margaret breaks down why detox isn’t about juice cleanses or quick fixes, but about restoring your body’s ability to pr...

In this episode of the Fueled & Free Podcast, Margaret shares her personal experience with microdosing GLP-1 peptides, and observations she’s had having coached clients who are microdosing GLP peptides. She breaks down how microdosing can minimize side effects, support appetite regulation, and improve metabolic health, while emphasizing that it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to fat loss.

In this episode of the Fueled & Free Podcast, Margaret has an honest conversation about one of the most common questions she hears: “How long is this going to take?” Whether it’s balancing hormones, healing the gut, improving energy, or reaching weight loss goals, many women expect a clear timeline. But the body doesn’t work that way. Instead, Margaret reframes the process of health and healing — comparing it to learning a new skill that takes time, practice, and patience. She emphasizes ...

In this episode of the Fueled & Free Podcast, Margaret explores the reality of PMS and PMDD, especially for women in their 30s and 40s. She challenges the conventional approach of prescribing birth control as a “fix,” explaining why it fails to address the root causes of hormonal imbalance.

2025/09/17

In today’s episode I’m sharing real talk on the cost of GLP-1 peptides like semaglutide and tirzepatide, what insurance does (and doesn’t) cover, and what it actually takes to maintain results long term. These medications can be powerful tools for weight loss and metabolic health, but they’re not quick fixes. That’s why it’s so important to understand not just the financial side, but also the lifestyle shifts, maintenance strategies, and functional testing that truly support lasting results. ...

2025/09/10

Today’s episode is all about something I know so many of you have struggled with: that constant chatter in your head around food. The “should I eat this?” … “why can’t I stop?” … “just one more bite” loop that feels like it never shuts off. This “food noise” can feel exhausting, overwhelming, and even isolating. In this episode, I’m diving into how GLP-1 medications can quiet that food noise, shift the urge to binge, and create more freedom in your relationship with food. We’ll talk about the...

Today’s episode is a special one because we’re celebrating 75 episodes of the Fueled & Free Podcast! 🎉 In today's episode, I’m sharing my six-month update on microdosing a GLP-1 peptide, Tirzepatide. This hasn’t been about chasing shortcuts or finding an “easy way out,” but rather giving my body the support it needed to finally respond again.

Today’s episode is a vulnerable one, and honestly…not something I ever thought I would be sharing: my personal journey with microdosing a GLP-1 peptide. This wasn’t about chasing a shortcut or “cheating”, but about giving my body the support it needed to respond again! I’m not saying you should do this, because I know it’s not for everyone. But…I’m also not here to gatekeep, and I will GLADLY share something that’s been a game changer for me (plus many of the women I’ve worked with)! ...

Today’s episode is a long time coming, and it’s regarding something that’s really shifting in our culture right now: alcohol. I’m diving into my personal journey with alcohol and growing up around addiction, the rise of the sober curious movement (especially with millennials and Gen-Zers), the significant impact on women’s health, why more people are turning to cannabis / THC, and more. Alcohol no longer serves me; I’ve personally made the decision to quit it, and I’m consciously breaking...

Insulin resistance is one of THE most overlooked root causes of fatigue, stubborn weight, cravings, brain fog, mood swings, and more. And yet…most women don’t even know it’s happening in their bodies. I’m diving into why insulin resistance is more than a blood sugar problem, subtle signs that show up for women in midlife (and are often ignored), root causes to insulin resistance, why the conventional medical approach tends to miss the mark, and more.

Today’s episode topic is one that may feel a little uncomfortable, but it’s something I see time and time again in the holistic and functional health space: the obsession with finding the root cause. It’s become this almost romanticized mission. Like, once you discover that ONE hidden issue, everything will *magically* fall into place! But…what if I told you that this chase could actually be what’s holding you back from experiencing true healing? I’m diving into why healing doesn’...

Today’s episode topic is a LONG time coming, and it’s something that is both intriguing + triggering: GLP1’s and semaglutide peptides. I know there are sooo many strong opinions about GLP-1s (especially in the holistic health space).

Today’s episode is covering a topic that can be a major game-changer for your health: MINERALS!
