143: Is Your Gut Health The Reason You Can’t Lose Weight?
If you’ve been doing everything right — eating healthy, cutting back on sugar, even exercising — but the scale still won’t budge, this episode is for you.

The reality is, your gut health might be preventing the weight from coming off.

In this episode, I break down how poor gut health can throw your hormones out of balance, slow your metabolism, and make weight loss after 40 feel impossible — and I share my 3 simple steps to start healing your gut naturally.

You’ll learn:
🌿 How your gut and hormones are connected (and what that means for the scale)
🍽️ The foods that help your gut thrive — and the sneaky ones that sabotage your progress
💤 Why stress and sleep matter just as much as what’s on your plate

If you’re tired of feeling bloated, inflamed, and stuck, this episode will help you reconnect with your body and finally see the progress you’ve been working for.

🎧 Hit play and find out how to heal your gut so your body can finally start working with you, not against you.

142: Reclaiming Your Hormone Health Without The Overwhelm With Ana G. Herrera
Everyone is talking about hormones lately but is your doctor actually hearing you? 

If you’ve ever felt like your hormones were out of whack but didn’t know where to turn—or worse, you were dismissed by your doctor—this episode is for you.

I’m sitting down with Ana G. Herrera, founder of Glow by Hormone University, who shares her intense journey from stage IV endometriosis to surgical menopause—and how that experience led her to create natural, science-backed solutions for women just like us.

We’re talking about:
  • What hormone imbalance can really look like (it’s not just hot flashes)

  • How to advocate for yourself at the doctor’s office (yes, you can ask for more!)

  • Daily practices that support hormone balance without being overwhelming

  • The surprising symptoms no one tells you are hormone-related (like even bloating and rage)
Ana’s story is deeply inspiring, and her passion for empowering women is contagious.

This is a must-listen if you’re in perimenopause, menopause, or just feeling like something is off and you're not getting answers.💛

The Healthy Mama Podcast
Welcome to The Healthy Mama Podcast where we talk about how to reach your health and wellness goals in a way that actually works for us busy moms. Tired of diet culture? Or the pressure of having to have Pinterest worthy, perfectly balanced meals to feel like you're doing a good job? It shouldn't be so hard to be healthy. I'm here to show you that it doesn't have to be complicated. Keep listening to learn how to take action and discover the healthy and abundant life you've always wanted. Whether it's weight loss, dealing with inflammation, feeding the family, loving your body or learning to get clear on your mindset, you'll find it here on The Healthy Mama Podcast. You're in the right place. You're right where you should be. I'm your host, Lucy Hutchings, Registered Dietitian, and I'm on a mission to empower mamas so they can reach true wellness, from the inside out.
