Think your thyroid is just about weight gain and fatigue? Think again. In this episode, I’m breaking down why your thyroid is the metabolic CEO of your body and how its dysfunction often gets misdiagnosed as stress, burnout, or “just getting older.”
We’ll unpack what the thyroid really controls, the early signs of hypothyroidism that often go unnoticed (even with “normal” labs), and the critical thyroid and stress connection that every high-performing woman needs to understand. If you’ve been struggling with brain fog, low energy, or mood swings, it might be time to look deeper at your thyroid health as a woman.
We’ll also explore how metabolism and thyroid function are closely linked—and how chronic stress and under-fueling can silently sabotage both. Plus, I’ll share three natural thyroid support tips that are simple, science-backed, and easy to implement into your daily life.
If you’re a high-achieving woman who feels like you’re pushing through unexplained fatigue, brain fog, or weight changes, this is a must-listen.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
