Ever stood in front of the fridge thinking, “What am I actually supposed to eat to get healthy?” Today you are getting your answer. This episode gives you a simple way to decide what to eat to stay healthy without complicated math, crazy recipes, or “bro science”. In this episode, Mel sits down with Dr. Amy Shah, MD. Dr. Shah is a leading expert in the role nutrition plays in health, longevity, and hormone regulation. She has been in clinical practice for 22 years as a double-board certified medical doctor with specializations in nutrition, internal medicine, and immunology.

It’s called 30/30/3. It’s designed to help you feel better fast, support your hormones, stabilize your energy, and make meals simpler without tracking, obsessing, or living on willpower. Mel and Dr. Shah talk about why these matter for women’s bodies and hormones, how to make it realistic with normal groceries, and what small shifts can start changing how you feel faster than you’d expect. By the end, you’ll know what to eat today to support your body, and the foods you should avoid. In this episode, you’ll learn: -The 30/30/3 protocol: 30g protein in your first meal, 30g fiber per day, 3 probiotic foods daily -Why protein is for more than muscles: it supports mood, focus, gut lining, and energy and cuts your cravings -The quick label trick to spot foods that claim protein but don’t deliver -Common “health foods” that quietly sabotage your goals. -How fiber impacts hormones, inflammation, and brain health -The probiotic foods that actually count (and why probiotic pills often don’t work) -Tiny food upgrades that can help your gut health improve quickly -How to eat healthy without tracking your life or living on salads.

But here’s the good news: you can reset your brain. Dr. Lembke walks you through the science of dopamine, pain, pleasure, and motivation, and shares a practical protocol for rebuilding focus, energy, and self-control in a world designed to hijack your attention. In this episode, you’ll learn: -The “pleasure–pain seesaw” that explains why you keep reaching for the thing you swear you’re done with -How dopamine really works (and why chasing pleasure backfires) -The hidden reason scrolling, snacking, and multitasking make you feel worse, not better -The simple but powerful way to rebalance pleasure and pain -What to do when you feel stuck in compulsive habits you “can’t quit” This is not a conversation about shame, addiction labels, or self-control. It’s about taking your brain back. If you want more energy, clarity, and motivation, and if you’re ready to stop fighting yourself and start working with your brain, this episode is for you.

You’re going to learn the real science and brand-new research of perimenopause and menopause and the simple, research-backed changes that can help you feel stronger, calmer, and more in control, starting now. For way too long, women have been left guessing about hormone changes, weight gain, sleep issues, mood swings, and why workouts that used to “work” suddenly don’t.

She breaks down why menopause is not the end of you. It’s just a transition, and with the right tools, your body can thrive for the next 40 years. Today’s episode has solutions, including new information that goes beyond what has ever been shared on this podcast before. In this episode, you’ll learn: -How to rewire your body to thrive without estrogen -Why belly fat shows up in menopause (and why it’s not the same kind of fat as before) -The specific diet and nutrition that help with mood and sleep -What happens to your brain, mood, sleep, and body fat when estrogen drops -Why menopause is basically reverse puberty -The #1 thing that changes everything in midlife: heavy strength training (and how to start in 10 minutes) -The new cardio that works with menopause (short sprint intervals) and why “moderate hard” workouts always backfire -The injuries nobody warns you about – frozen shoulder and plantar fasciitis – and what to do about them Bookmark this episode and share it with every single woman in your life. You do not have to live with symptoms that can be resolved, and you do not have to suffer. You can train your body to adapt to the changes – and you can start this week.
