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.

S6 Ep. 4: Hashimoto's & Hypothyroidism Part 2: Exploring ALL Your Treatment Options
In this powerful follow-up episode, Jamie and Teresa dive deep into Hashimoto's Thyroiditis and Hypothyroidism, taking the conversation to the next level with a focused discussion on treatment options.
If you’ve been diagnosed with thyroid dysfunction or suspect something’s off with your thyroid health, this is the episode for you. Teresa and Jamie break down every type of thyroid hormone replacement therapy, helping you navigate the often confusing world of thyroid care:
🔹 Levothyroxine (T4) – the most commonly prescribed option
🔹 Desiccated or Porcine Thyroid – a more natural, whole-gland alternative
🔹 Liothyronine (T3) – synthetic T3 support
🔹 Compounded T3/T4 – a personalized and balanced approach
Plus, Teresa equips you with tools to become your own thyroid advocate, reviewing the optimal lab ranges you should know and how to talk to your provider about them.
