In this episode, I’m joined by the inspiring Michelle Hurn — Registered Dietitian, ultra runner, author of The Dietitian’s Dilemma, and unapologetic advocate for animal-based nutrition.
Michelle and I dive into the powerful intersection of nutrition and mental health, exploring how diet impacts emotional regulation, anxiety, and brain energy. We discuss:
The dangers of chronic under-eating and nutrient depletion
Why animal-based proteins and fats are essential for mental clarity
Natural ways to support GLP-1 (including a surprising tea recommendation)
Her concerns about synthetic GLP-1s and what’s missing from the mainstream conversation
How to calm the “food noise” that hijacks mental bandwidth
Michelle also shares her favorite GLP-1-supportive product, Unimate, and offers a discount link for listeners ($36 off retail).
This was such a rich and energizing conversation — especially if you’ve ever struggled with food fear, mental fatigue, or navigating what “healthy” even means in today’s world.
