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
