This podcast offers a deeper dive into the world of THM. Listen in as the girls tackle a variety of food, fitness and lifestyle topics with the same quirky attitude and style that has endeared them to an ever-growing audience of women who are changing their lives and the lives of their families.

We’ve always been the “tell it like it is” sisters… and this might be our most honest episode yet. When I (Pearl) changed my profile photo, I got a lot of comments and questions. Had I been doing anything different to my skin care routine? I shared how Serene and I had just had fat grafting (using our own fat and stem cells to restore our skin as part of full facial rejuvenation procedures.)
The internet backlash was instant! Word...

Bring back the hormones (BRHT): The health fat loss can take time, when you’re on BHRT. Sometimes you gain first, when you’re on estrogen, for instance.
Get the carbs back (Celebrate Carbs!): When your metabolism is healing, there’s a bit of bounce back. You gain some weight, and then will lose later. Trust the process.
