Episode 62. Rebalancing After IVF: The Protocol That Finally Worked feat. Sharan Bhinder Cover

Beschreibung

If I had a dollar for every woman who comes to be with severe bloating and weight gain in the middle after IVF...Let's unpack it.   I talk to a lot of high-achieving women who are doing everything right. The gym. The health food delivery. The clean eating. And they're still gaining weight. Still bloated. Still exhausted. Still hiding from mirrors. Sharan was one of those women.   Account director at LinkedIn in Singapore. High pressure sales role. Quarterly targets. And a body that felt completely foreign to her, especially after four rounds of IVF.   She was going to the gym four or five times a week. Ordering from a health kitchen. And still watching herself get bigger. She started needing a gin every night just to get through the day. She was almost the weight her mother was after having three kids.   And she was sick of it.   This episode is her story. What the labs actually showed. Why the gym wasn't working. And how she lost 22lbs (10kg) without destroying herself in the process. ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?

Episode 69. The Vacation Crash: Why You're Exhausted Even on Vacation Cover

69. The Vacation Crash: Why You're Exhausted Even on Vacation

I used to come home from vacation more exhausted than when I left. Five days in Montana with my family, the Ariana Grande collab had just gone live at Reebok, I finally slept 10 hours and woke up horizontal for three days feeling worse than on my busiest office days. At the time I thought I was just broken. Turns out I was running on stress hormones as my primary fuel source. And the second the threat disappeared, my body crashed and sent me the bill. If vacation is supposed to be rest, why do you come home feeling destroyed? Let's unpack what's up with your hormones and how to fix it.   LINKS * Join the retreat waitlist: https://chelseamcleod.com/retreat-waitlist  * Electrolytes: https://us.fullscript.com/plans/healthyhustle-pantry-essentials [https://us.fullscript.com/plans/healthyhustle-pantry-essentials] * Blue Blocker Glasses: use code CMHEALTH for discount https://boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses?rfsn=7236550.af5a97 [https://boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses?rfsn=7236550.af5a97] * Opal - to block apps on phone (code PAXEZ 30 days free): https://apps.apple.com/app/id1497465230?mt=8  ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?

Episode 68. Glowing Up After a Toxic Workplace: Tanya's Story Cover

68. Glowing Up After a Toxic Workplace: Tanya's Story

I get DMs almost daily from women who've done the naturopath, the supplements, the spin classes, the green smoothies, the therapy. Done everything, spent thousands, and still feel like their body is just...not cooperating. Tanya is one of those women. She had a wellness blog. She knew the stuff. She was consistent. And her body still didn't give a shit. When I ran into her in the Sydney Botanical Gardens 18 months ago, she chased me down and said "I need to do your course." And I said, babe, I've got you, let's walk and talk. What followed was one of the most layered cases I've worked with. PCOS, insulin resistance, ferritin under 30, cortisol through the roof, a mum going through chemo, a toxic workplace hemorrhaging cash, a relationship she didn't realize was abusive. And a nervous system that had been in survival mode for well over a decade. This is not a weight loss story. It's a root cause story. And the ending is genuinely cool. ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?

Episode 67. The Real Reason Strong Women Refuse Help Cover

67. The Real Reason Strong Women Refuse Help

Every high achieving woman I know has a spreadsheet. A routine. A Huberman episode downloaded. Protein macros dialed in. And a body that is still not cooperating. I spent a decade doing the same thing. WebMDing my fatigue. Cobbling together protocols. Snorting metaphorical Adderall through my nose holes trying to outwork a body that was begging me to stop. And I didn't make more progress in ten years than I did in the first three days of actually working with someone who knew what they were doing. This episode is about the one thing nobody in the wellness space wants to say out loud: the reason you're stuck isn't that you need more information. It's that you refuse to ask for help. And that refusal isn't a personality quirk. It's wrecking your hormones.   ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?
