Eat the F*cking Food ·

2026/10/06

Constant fatigue, trouble sleeping, frequent injuries, and a shorter fuse than usual can all be signs you're not eating enough. When American tennis player Emma Navarro shared in 2026 that she had been diagnosed with Hashimoto's and RED-S, or relative energy deficiency in sport, it put a name to what happens when you chronically burn more energy than you take in. You don't have to be a pro athlete for this to apply to you. If you're a midlife woman playing tennis or pickleball, running, doing

Is bloating normal? A little bit is. Your belly is meant to push out more by evening than it did first thing in the morning, because food has volume and digestion takes time. The bloating that signals a real gut problem is different: hard, painful, visibly pregnant, and there from your first sip of water. If you have been cutting gluten, dairy, and everything else trying to find the food behind your bloating, constipation, or rushed trips to the bathroom, this episode will save you time, money, and

2026/09/22

How to stop emotional eating starts with understanding that it was never a willpower problem, it is an automatic loop your brain runs on autopilot. If you have ever stood in front of the freezer at nine o'clock reaching for something to make yourself feel better, then judged yourself for it the next morning, you are not broken and you are not alone. Emotional eating is a learned pattern wired into your nervous system, often starting in childhood, and it intensifies in midlife as hormone shifts make

2026/09/15

Nervous system regulation for women means teaching your body that it no longer has to stay braced for the next crisis, and if you have spent years being the strong one, the fixer, the one everyone counts on, your nervous system has likely forgotten how to fully come back down. You feel guilty resting. You snap at small things that should not bother you. You have read about eldest daughter syndrome and felt seen in an uncomfortable way. That baseline of always being slightly activated is not a

Eat the F*cking Food ·

2026/09/08

How much protein do midlife women really need is one of the most confusing questions in women's nutrition, and the honest answer is more than the government recommends and less than the internet is selling you. If you have your protein memo, your shakes, and your bars, and you are still crashing at 3pm, waking up at night, or not building muscle despite your workouts, the amount you are eating is probably the problem, not your effort. Protein is not just a muscle nutrient. It stabilizes blood sugar,

2026/08/25

Why dieting doesn't work comes down to one thing: it only ever addresses food, and most midlife women have spent decades restricting without ever touching the mental, emotional, or spiritual pieces that actually keep them stuck. If you have done everything right, tracked, restricted, worked out harder, and still feel exhausted, bloated, or stuck in your body, you are not imagining it and you are not failing. The problem was never just what was on your plate. Kristin Collins, certified nutrition

Are carbs bad for menopause? Not even close. If you have spent years cutting carbohydrates to chase a smaller number on the scale, this episode explains why that restriction has been working against you, not for you. Carbohydrates are your body's preferred source of energy, and going without enough of them can leave you exhausted, hangry, and unable to sleep through the night. That drop on the scale after cutting carbs is mostly water weight, not fat, and the crash that follows in your energy, mood,

Why women don't start nutrition coaching usually has nothing to do with willpower and everything to do with timing myths, body fear, and stories they have told themselves for years.
