Ep. 67 The Hormone Sequence That Changes Everything After 40 | In the Groove

In this episode of In the Groove with Todd & Jackie, we're joined by Amanda Hinman, Hormone Health Expert and Founder of Hinman Holistic Health, for an insightful conversation about women's health, hormones, and what truly changes after 40. For many women, healthy habits that once worked suddenly stop producing results. Fatigue, stubborn weight gain, brain fog, poor sleep, and low energy can feel frustrating—especially when you're doing everything "right." Amanda explains why these changes often have less to do with willpower and more to do with understanding the body's hormonal shifts. During our conversation, we explore: ✨ Why your body changes after 40—and what your hormones may be trying to tell you ✨ Why discipline alone isn't always enough for lasting health results ✨ The connection between hormones, metabolism, energy, mood, and overall well-being ✨ Why addressing the root cause leads to more sustainable health outcomes ✨ Practical strategies to work with your body instead of against it Amanda also shares her own health journey and how it inspired her mission to help women over 40 restore their energy, balance their hormones, and reclaim vibrant health through a personalized, holistic approach. Whether you're experiencing hormonal changes yourself or simply want a deeper understanding of how hormones influence overall wellness, this episode offers practical insights and encouraging perspectives that can help you take the next step toward better health.
