    Feb 19 2026

    Reclaim Your Vitality: Science-Backed Detoxification with Dr. Haroldo Magarinos

    What if your fatigue, inflammation, hormone resistance, brain fog, or "detox reactions" aren't because you need more supplements—but because your body can't clear what it's already carrying?

    In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I'm joined by Dr. Haroldo Magarinos, founder of Reclaim Your Vitality, for a grounded, science-backed conversation on what detoxification actually means—and why so many high performers get it wrong.

    We unpack the missing physiology behind detox programs, hormone optimization, and "biohacking," especially for driven midlife athletes and professionals who are doing all the right things but still feel stuck.

    This is not about aggressive cleanses or pushing harder.
    It's about capacity, flow, and order of operations.

    In this episode, we explore:

    • Why detox is a biological process, not a product or protocol
    • How the nervous system, liver, bile, gut, kidneys, and lymph must work together
    • Why poor bile flow leads to hormone recirculation, histamine overload, and inflammation
    • The connection between chronic stress, mitochondrial energy, and impaired detox pathways
    • Why many people feel worse during detox—and how to prevent that
    • How to rebuild drainage, resilience, and metabolic harmony before adding HRT, peptides, GLP-1s, or intense training
    • What "science-backed detox" actually looks like in real life

    Dr. Magarinos brings clarity to the confusion around detoxification by anchoring the conversation in physiology, systems biology, and clinical experience—cutting through fear-based marketing and outdated models.

    If you've ever said:
    "I've tried detoxing, but it didn't work."
    "I react to everything."
    "My labs look okay, but I don't feel okay."
    "Hormones and supplements aren't helping."

    This episode will help you understand why—and what needs to come first.

    Because real vitality isn't forced.
    It's restored—by improving flow from the inside out.

  • PEPTIDES 101: Why Timing, Terrain & Signaling Matter More Than the Peptide
    Feb 17 2026

    Peptides are everywhere right now — in conversations about muscle, fat loss, recovery, longevity, and immune health.
    But here's the truth most people aren't talking about:

    👉 Peptides don't work well in a stressed, depleted, inflamed body.
    👉 And when used too early, they often make symptoms worse — not better.

    In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I'm breaking down PEPTIDES 101 from a root-cause, functional medicine lens — not hype, shortcuts, or biohacker trends.

    This is a terrain-first, signaling-based conversation designed to help you understand:

    • What peptides actually do

    • Who they're best for

    • When they're NOT appropriate

    • And why timing matters more than the peptide itself

    In this episode, you'll learn:
    • What peptides are (and how they differ from hormones, proteins, and supplements)

    • Why peptides act as signal amplifiers, not fixes

    • How chronic stress, under-fueling, over-training, poor sleep, constipation, and inflammation shut down:

      • hormonal signaling

      • immune modulation

      • cellular repair

    • Why peptides often fail when the nervous system doesn't feel safe

    • The 7 phases of peptide readiness, including:

      • nervous system regulation

      • metabolic stabilization

      • digestion, elimination & drainage

      • training and recovery alignment

      • foundational nutrition

    • What peptides are actually best used for:

      • tissue repair & recovery

      • lean mass preservation

      • immune regulation

      • mitochondrial resilience

      • longevity signaling

    • Why peptides belong after foundations — not before them

    This episode is for you if:
    • You're curious about peptides but want to use them safely

    • You've tried "doing all the right things" and still feel stuck

    • You're a midlife athlete dealing with fatigue, poor recovery, or anabolic resistance

    • You want to understand why things aren't working — not just what to try next

    The key takeaway:

    Peptides don't create healing.
    They accelerate healing that's already allowed.

  • Fat Loss Stalls: Why Fit, High-Performing Adults Stop Getting Results
    Feb 15 2026
    Are you ready to STOP Guessing and START working from Within?

    You train consistently.
    You walk, lift weights, and maybe even do cardio or Zone 2.
    You eat "clean," focus on protein, avoid junk—and yet fat loss has stalled, muscle feels harder to build, and your body looks softer than it should.

    If that's you, this episode is for you.

    In this deep-dive rabbit hole episode, Coach Debbie Potts unpacks why fat loss stalls in fit, disciplined, high-performing adults—especially in midlife—despite doing all the "right" things with exercise and nutrition.

    Here's the truth most people never hear:

    Fat loss resistance isn't a motivation problem.
    It's not a willpower issue.
    And it's rarely a simple calorie problem.

    It's a root-cause, metabolic, and nervous system issue.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • Why fat loss stalls when your body shifts into metabolic protection

    • How chronic stress, under-fueling, and over-training quietly suppress fat oxidation

    • Why "normal" labs don't tell the full story

    • How mitochondrial dysfunction blocks fat loss and muscle rebuilding

    • Why hormonal issues are often downstream effects—not the starting point

    • How poor digestion, bile flow, and incomplete elimination sabotage fat loss

    • Why more exercise and cleaner eating often make things worse

    • What Resting and Active Metabolic Testing (PNOĒ) reveal that standard tests miss

    Coach Debbie explains how loss of FLOW—from nervous system dysregulation, depleted mitochondria, poor recovery, and blocked waste removal—causes the body to clamp down, conserve energy, and resist change.

    You'll also learn why the solution isn't pushing harder, cutting more calories, or adding another protocol—but restoring the right order of operations:

    ✔️ Safety before stress
    ✔️ Energy before effort
    ✔️ Structure before clearance

    When these systems are supported, the body stops fighting you—and results return.

    If you're tired of guessing, stuck in trial-and-error, and ready to understand why your body is responding the way it is, this episode will change how you look at fat loss forever.

    Ready to Stop Guessing and Start Working From Within?

  • #630 What if your "normal" cholesterol labs don't actually mean your heart is safe?
    Feb 12 2026

    In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I sit down with Dr. John Osborne, cardiologist and founder of ClearCardio, to uncover what most people—and even many physicians—are missing when it comes to heart disease risk.

    We dive into why cardiovascular disease often progresses silently, especially in fit, high-performing adults who "do everything right." You'll learn why traditional markers like total cholesterol and LDL often fail to tell the full story—and how advanced imaging and deeper biomarkers can reveal risk years (or decades) earlier.

    This conversation is especially important for:
    • Endurance athletes
    • Midlife high performers
    • Men and women navigating hormonal shifts
    • Anyone with a family history of heart disease
    • Those frustrated by "your labs look fine" answers

    In this episode, we cover:

    • Why heart disease is often missed until it's too late
    • The difference between cholesterol numbers and plaque burden
    • What a coronary calcium scan actually shows—and who should consider one
    • How chronic stress, inflammation, hormones, and metabolic dysfunction impact the heart
    • Why fitness does NOT automatically equal cardiovascular protection
    • The role of insulin resistance, visceral fat, and vascular inflammation
    • How early detection changes outcomes—and saves lives

    We also connect the dots between metabolic health, nervous system regulation, inflammation, and cardiovascular resilience, aligning perfectly with The FLOW Foundation™ and The FutureYou Blueprint™ philosophy:
    👉 You don't optimize what you don't assess—and you can't fix what you don't see.

    If you're serious about aging strong, staying in the game, and protecting your future self, this is a conversation you need to hear.

    🎧 Listen now and learn how to move beyond surface-level labs and take ownership of your heart health—from the inside out.

  • Why Pushing Harder Stops Working (and What Your Body Is Actually Asking For)
    Feb 10 2026

    Is this you...

    You're fit.
    You train consistently.
    You eat "healthy."
    You're disciplined and driven.

    So why does your body feel stuck?

    In this deep-dive rabbit hole episode, Coach Debbie Potts unpacks the missing pieces high performers overlook when results stall in midlife—despite doing all the "right" things. If pushing harder, training more, or cleaning up your diet isn't working anymore, this episode will explain why.

    You'll learn why:
    • You can poop every day and still be constipated
    • Detox often backfires in driven bodies
    • The nervous system—not willpower—is the master regulator
    • Mitochondrial energy determines whether you adapt or resist
    • Aggressive protocols fail when FLOW isn't restored first

    Debbie shares what she's learning from trusted mentors, cutting-edge research, and real-world pattern recognition to explain why sequence matters more than effort in midlife health and performance.

    This episode introduces the FLOW Foundation Blueprint™ and the core reframe high performers need to hear:

    You don't need more discipline.
    You don't need to try harder.
    You need safety before stress, structure before clearance, and energy before effort.

    If you're tired of guessing, stuck in trial-and-error cycles, or frustrated that your body no longer responds the way it used to—this episode is for you.

  • Capacity Before Flow: Why Drainage Comes First for Healthy Aging from the Inside Out
    Feb 8 2026

    If you're a high performer living life like a race—training hard, eating "right," optimizing everything—but still feeling inflamed, tired, reactive, or stuck… this episode is for you.

    In this deep-dive rabbit hole episode, Coach Debbie Potts breaks down the real order of operations for health, performance, and longevity—from the nervous system to lymph, liver, bile, gut, and mitochondria—and explains why drainage must come before flow if you want to age strong, resilient, and metabolically healthy.

    You'll learn why:

    • Flow is not effort—it's capacity

    • The nervous system is the master switch for digestion, detox, hormones, and recovery

    • Lymph only moves with breathing, movement, hydrated fascia, and parasympathetic tone

    • The liver doesn't "detox" unless bile can package and carry waste out

    • Pooping is the final step of successful drainage—not the first

    • Forcing detox, training, fasting, or hormones without open exits creates symptoms, not healing

    Using the FLOW Foundation™ framework (Free the Nervous System → Lymph & Fascia → Oxygen & Blood Flow → Waste Removal), Debbie walks you through the cellular logic of why high performers burn out despite doing everything "right," and how restoring flow turns a stagnant internal swamp back into a clean, moving river.

    This episode connects the dots between:

    • Nervous system regulation (safety vs. survival)

    • Lymphatic drainage and inflammation

    • Liver detox phases and bile flow

    • Gut motility and hormone clearance

    • Mitochondrial function, blood sugar, and aging capacity

    If you're ready to stop guessing, stop forcing, and start building health from the inside out, this episode sets the foundation for creating your own FutureYou Blueprint™—with the right order, for your unique body.

    🎧 Listen now and learn why Drainage → Flow → Capacity is non-negotiable for how you age.

  • #629 What is BLOCK Therapy with Deanna Hansen
    Feb 5 2026

    Block Therapy, Fascia & Flow: Why Your Body Can't Heal What It Can't Release
    with Deanna Hansen

    What if your pain, stiffness, poor recovery, hormone resistance, or "mystery inflammation" isn't coming from weak muscles, aging joints, or overtraining—but from dehydrated, compressed fascia?

    In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I'm joined by Deanna Hansen, creator of Block Therapy®, to unpack the missing link in healing, performance, and longevity: your fascial system.

    Fascia is not just connective tissue—it's a sensory organ, communication highway, and drainage system. And when it becomes compressed from stress, repetitive training, injuries, sitting, or breath restriction, everything downstream suffers.

    That includes:

    • Lymphatic flow

    • Circulation and oxygen delivery

    • Hormone signaling

    • Nervous system regulation

    • Detox and waste removal

    • Pain-free movement and recovery

    In true FLOW Foundation™ fashion, we explore why you can't "train harder" or supplement your way out of a body that can't move, hydrate, and release.

    In this episode, we cover:
    • What fascia really is—and why it's not passive tissue

    • How chronic stress, endurance training, and aging compress fascia

    • Why lymph has no pump (and how fascia is the pump)

    • The connection between fascia, breath, vagal tone, and inflammation

    • How Block Therapy® helps rehydrate tissues and restore flow

    • Why aggressive workouts, detoxes, and even HRT can backfire when fascia is stuck

    • How gentle, intentional decompression prepares your body to adapt, heal, and perform

    Why this matters for high performers and aging athletes:

    If you're:

    • Doing "all the right things" but not seeing results

    • Struggling with lingering pain, stiffness, or slow recovery

    • Feeling inflamed, puffy, tight, or restricted

    • Sensitive to supplements, training, or hormone therapies

    This conversation may completely change how you approach your health.

    Because nothing detoxes, heals, or adapts if it can't move first.

    👉 Clean before you build.
    👉 Open the drains before you add load.
    👉 Restore flow before chasing performance.

    About My Guest

    Deanna Hansen is an educator, speaker, and the founder of Block Therapy®, a revolutionary approach to fascial decompression that restores circulation, lymphatic flow, posture, and pain-free movement—without force, stretching, or aggressive techniques.

  • Are you stuck in Cell Danger Mode?
    Jan 29 2026

    Are you eating clean, training smart, managing stress — maybe even using hormone replacement — but still struggling with fatigue, inflammation, stubborn weight, low energy, or poor recovery?

    👉 This isn't "just aging."

    In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, Debbie takes a deep dive into the Cell Danger Response (CDR) — a groundbreaking biological framework developed by Robert Naviaux — that explains why so many people feel stuck despite "doing everything right."

    Chronic symptoms aren't random.
    They're often signs that the body is stuck in survival mode and hasn't completed the healing cycle.

    🔬 In This Episode, You'll Learn:
    • What the Cell Danger Response is — and why it's protective, not broken biology

    • The four major triggers that activate survival physiology

    • The difference between fight/flight and freeze/shutdown at the cellular level

    • Why digestion, hormones, mitochondria, and inflammation won't normalize if the nervous system doesn't feel safe

    • Why chronic illness often reflects incomplete healing, not permanent damage

    🧪 Debbie's Personal Case Study: Why "Test, Don't Guess" Matters

    Debbie shares how she connected patterns across multiple functional and metabolic tests to uncover what was really happening under the hood, including:

    • GI-MAP gut testing (dysbiosis, low butyrate, endotoxins/LPS)

    • Genetics influencing oxidative stress, detox pathways, and cell membrane repair

    • mescreen™ mitochondrial testing (ROS, membrane integrity, energy efficiency)

    • Vagus nerve tone & HRV data

    • Hormones and thyroid signaling at the cellular level

    👉 The takeaway:
    It wasn't age.
    It wasn't willpower.
    It was unmeasured cellular stress driving a prolonged survival response.

    🧠 From Survival to Resilience

    Healing doesn't happen by pushing harder.
    It happens by restoring safety, calming danger signals, supporting mitochondria, and allowing the body to complete the healing cycle.

    This episode explains why testing beats trial-and-error — and how Debbie uses this approach to build a personalized FutureYou Blueprint™ for clients who want to thrive as they age.
