In this empowering episode, Teresa sits down with Sara Paxton, a pharmacist turned Certified Health Coach and founder of Nourish Health Coaching. Sara shares her powerful journey from the world of pharmaceuticals, where she once helped cover up symptoms, to discovering the beauty of how our bodies communicate through them.
Sara believes that our symptoms are blessings, our body’s way of signaling that something needs attention, and that our hormones and cycles tell a story of incredible design. Together, Teresa and Sara dive deep into how gut health impacts hormone balance and metabolism, why the food industry makes healthy living so confusing, and how blood sugar monitoring can transform energy and mood for women.
Rooted in her faith and inspired by the whole person, mind, body & spirit, Sara’s mission is clear: to help women feel good in their bodies, restore vitality, and live abundantly as God intended. As a wife, mother of five energetic boys, and passionate health advocate, she reminds us that when women feel better, they do better in every part of life.

S5 Ep. 25: Fertility Facts You’ve Never Heard — From Redheads to Sperm Types
Hey friends! Today on The Hormone Genius Podcast, Teresa and I are having a blast busting through some pretty amazing (and shocking) facts about hormones, fertility, and the human body. We decided to challenge each other to come up with the most mind-blowing fertility facts we could find—facts that the other person hadn’t heard before! Spoiler alert: we definitely wowed each other.
In this episode, we explore some seriously cool (and sometimes surprising) facts about both men and women, and how our hormones and fertility work. You’ll learn things like why redheads experience pain differently than the rest of us, why only 2% of mammals menstruate, and what types of sperm exist (yep, you heard that right!). We even dive into how the vagina has the same pH as a common vegetable. There’s so much more, and we’re excited to share it all with you!
Whether you’re a fertility nerd or just love learning about how your body works, this episode is packed with fascinating insights. Trust me, you’re going to hear things that you’ve never been told before about the amazing design of the human body.
