If you have PCOS and you feel like your body and metabolism is fighting against you… this episode is for you. The “just eat less, move more” advice falls short here, and we’re especially done with the gym bros who can’t explain a follicular phase telling women to cut carbs and just try harder. So, in this episode we brought on for the second time Dr. Alison Gottschalk, Naturopathic Doctor to come on to dive deep into the weight loss and metabolism conversation when it comes to PCOS.

We talk about

• What insulin resistance really is and what important lab markers to look out for
• The connection between your liver, testosterone, and weight
• Why under-eating can actually make everything worse
• Why muscle might be more important than any supplement in PCOS
• The Low carb conversation
• HIIT training and cortisol in PCOS
• GLP-1’s and other medications used here

And so much more

This week, we’re getting very real about why your dating life might feel like a rollercoaster, and what your attachment style has to do with it.

We’re joined by Dr. Morgan Anderson, clinical psychologist, relationship coach, and host of the Let’s Get Vulnerable podcast, for a deep (and slightly spicy) dive into attachment theory: how it forms, how it plays out in dating, and what it actually looks like to become securely attached.

We talk anxious spirals, the anxious-avoidant trap, self-abandonment in relationships (yep, even the "cool girl" kind), why you might be addicted to chaos, and how to know if it’s a trauma bond or real emotional intimacy.

Whether you're single, dating, married, or deep in your therapy era, this one’s going to hit. Hard.
