Have you ever found yourself thinking:

“I’m eating well. I’m exercising. I’m trying so hard… so why does my body feel stuck?”

If you’ve been doing all the “right” things but still feel tired, inflamed, frustrated, or disconnected from your body — this episode is for you.

In today’s conversation, I’m joined by Katie Hardie, board-certified holistic nutritionist, performance psychology expert, and founder of My PEAK. Katie works with highly motivated, high-performing individuals — especially women — who are disciplined, committed, and quietly burning out.

Instead of telling women to push harder or try another plan, Katie helps them understand what their symptoms are actually communicating. Together, we talk about how to shift from fighting your body to listening to it — and how to respond in ways that restore energy, resilience, and trust.

This episode isn’t about doing more.

It’s about doing different — with clarity instead of guilt.

⸻

In this episode, we discuss:

•Why your body isn’t “failing” — it’s giving feedback

•The most common signals women ignore or normalize (and why that matters)

•Why disciplined, high-achieving women often hit a wall first

•How to tell if your body needs fuel, recovery, or nervous system regulation — not more discipline

•The difference between discipline and data (and how women get stuck in that loop)

•How to use functional testing as a guide — without fear or obsession

•Why recovery is essential for performance, not the opposite of it

•Where to start when you feel seen… but also overwhelmed

⸻

A reminder from this episode:

Your body isn’t broken.

It isn’t working against you.

It’s communicating — and when you learn how to listen, everything changes.

If this conversation resonated with you, consider sharing it with a friend who’s been pushing a little too hard — or leave a review so more women can find these conversations.

If you’ve ever been told “your labs look fine” while you’re sitting there exhausted, foggy, bloated, anxious, or feeling nothing like yourself — this episode is for you.

Today on It’s Hertime, I’m joined by Dyna Vink, a certified Integrative Health Practitioner and founder of Holistic Nutrition Lifestyle, for a candid, eye-opening conversation about why so many midlife women fall through the cracks of conventional medicine — and what actually helps.

Dyna shares her own perimenopause wake-up call: the symptoms that blindsided her, the frustration of being dismissed by doctors, and the moment she realized this couldn’t just be stress or aging. Through functional medicine testing, she uncovered hidden root causes that standard labs missed — and rebuilt her energy, confidence, and health from the ground up.

This episode is validating, empowering, and packed with practical insight for any woman navigating perimenopause, midlife symptoms, or that unsettling feeling of “something is off, but no one can tell me why.”

⸻

In This Episode, We Cover:

•Why perimenopause hits high-achieving women especially hard

•The emotional toll of being told “everything is normal” when it clearly isn’t

•How traditional medicine falls short for midlife women

•What functional medicine does differently (and why it changes everything)

•The surprising role parasites can play in fatigue, gut issues, and hormone chaos

•Detox myths vs. realistic detox foundations that actually support hormones

•The gut–hormone–brain connection and why gut health is non-negotiable

•Why optimizing your health is not selfish — it’s a professional investment

•The very first step to take if you’re overwhelmed and don’t know where to start

If your workouts are leaving you exhausted instead of energized, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode of It’s Hertime, Cody sits down with Lauren Kleban, celebrity trainer and founder of LEKFIT, to unpack why traditional fitness culture often works against women’s hormones — especially in perimenopause, menopause, and high-stress seasons of life.

Lauren shares how overtraining, excessive HIIT, and chronic cardio can elevate cortisol, suppress thyroid function, disrupt blood sugar, and stall results — even when women are “doing everything right.”

Together, Cody and Lauren explore:

•Why women’s bodies need rhythm, recovery, and variety

•How lymphatic flow is a missing piece in hormone balance

•Why joyful, music-driven movement is actually one of the most powerful healing tools for women

•How to build a hormone-friendly weekly workout routine without burnout

This conversation is a permission slip to stop punishing your body — and start partnering with it.

LEKFIT isn’t about shrinking — it’s about feeling strong, sexy, confident, and at home in your body.

Lauren shares what she hopes women take away from her classes beyond physical results: self-trust, embodiment, and joy.
