#911. Women have been told to “just deal with it”, and this episode explains why that’s not okay!

Kaitlyn sits down with double-board certified physician and bestselling author Dr. Amy Shah for a conversation every woman needs to hear. They talk about what’s actually happening in women’s bodies in our 30s, 40s, and beyond — and why most of us were never given real guidance around food, movement, stress, or hormones.

In this episode, you’ll learn why perimenopause can start much earlier than you think, how nutrition (not dieting) plays a major role in energy, mood, brain fog, and weight, and why the way women move, recover, and manage stress needs to look different. Dr. Shah also breaks down her 30-30-3 method and 4-3-2-1 movement framework, giving you simple, science-backed tools you can actually use.

If you’ve ever felt confused, dismissed, or like your body changed without warning — this episode will help you understand why and what to do next. Listen now!
