• 539. Rapid Recovery Tools: My 5 Keys to Healing After Cancer Surgery (or any surgery)

  I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing my own cancer surgery recovery playbook—my 5 rapid recovery tools that helped me bounce back faster than my doctor thought possible. You’ll get the real story about my hysterectomy, the emotional rollercoaster of a cancer diagnosis (yep, I’m officially cancer-free!), and the exact science-backed strategies I used to speed heal, crush inflammation, support my immune system, and get back to the gym way ahead of schedule. If cancer, surgery, or just flat-out “I need to heal now” vibes are on your radar, this is the badass protocol you’ve been waiting for. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this one. I break down my top tools—from black cumin seed oil (a total inflammation-buster and cancer-fighting powerhouse), to red light therapy, to grounding with the Aligned Mat, optimizing hormone health with my go-to supplement, and of course, strategic use of cutting-edge peptides. Whether you’re facing a tough diagnosis or just want to bulletproof your body, these tactics aren’t just for post-op—they’re for life and prevention, too. Listen in to get the actionable steps, the “why” behind each one, and your first-class ticket to never hearing that C word. Prevention, healing, and next-level thriving—all inside this episode!

• 538. Does T4 - Synthroid Cause Cancer?

  Is your Synthroid (T4) prescription quietly sabotaging your health or maybe even worse? Is it hiking up your cancer risk? In this episode, I rip apart the social media fear-mongering and take you on a science-backed deep dive through the headline making claims about Levothyroxine, Synthroid, and all things T4. You’ll hear the truth behind those scary “T4 causes cancer” statements, what the research actually says, and why so many docs lean on T4-only treatments that can leave you fat, foggy, and, yes, increased risk for cancer if they’re not paying attention to critical lab markers like reverse T3. I'll break down the difference between T4, T3, and why reverse T3 (the notorious antithyroid hormone) matters way more than your doctor might admit. Learn how a sluggish thyroid protocol can suppress your immune system, fuel cancer-promoting pathways, and what you can do about it. If you’ve ever worried about your morning thyroid pill or wanted legit answers that empower rather than terrify, this episode is your no BS guide to optimizing your thyroid and putting another layer of armor between you and “the big C.” Block out the nonsense, let’s get you educated on T4 medications.

• 537. Five Minutes to Boost Thyroid and Burn Fat

  In this episode, I team up with Ulrich Dempfle—the brain behind the Carol bike—to shatter the “cardio queen” myth once and for all. We get into the science of why endless hours on the treadmill aren’t just pointless, they could be sabotaging your thyroid, spiking cortisol, breaking down muscle, and making your body hang on to fat for dear life. Instead, Ulrich and I reveal how short, AI-powered, resistance-based sprints (just two bursts of 20 seconds!) can supercharge your VO2 max, metabolic health, and actually transform your body composition—especially if you’re sick of feeling inflamed or stuck in a fat-loss plateau. You’ll hear my personal shift from marathon cardio to quick, intense workouts and why I feel better than ever at 51. We dig into why this approach is a metabolic and mitochondrial game-changer (especially for my Hashimoto’s warriors!), how it supports muscle, reduces inflammation, and is way easier to recover from. Plus, you’ll learn how to score a risk-free trial of the Carol bike and never need to dread another hour-long cardio grind. If you’re ready for the smarter way to slim down and get your energy back, this is the episode for you! Carol Bike: https://carolbike.com/ Use code THYROID for $100 off WHAT DO MY LABS MEAN?!

I'm sharing every detail, from how I accidentally stumbled onto my uterine cancer (no, I wasn’t bleeding!) to the boatload of questions, second opinions, unconventional protocols, and tough-as-nails decisions that followed. I break down not only the roller coaster of emotions, but also the exact hormone strategies, labs, interventions, and healing protocols I’m doing now to support my recovery and kick my cancer risk to the curb for good. If you’ve ever wondered how a hormone and thyroid expert thinks through the mess of modern cancer rates, prevention, treatment options, and post-surgery recovery, or if you just want the real, unfiltered truth about hormone replacement, cancer screening, and taking control in a toxic world, this is your must-listen episode. Whether you’ve faced that "C word" yourself or you’re all about next-level health hacks and prevention, this story is packed with honesty, practical takeaways, and the hope you need to stay fierce no matter what.
