“Can a face cream really smooth wrinkles and ease pain? One woman’s surprising results.”

• ---- Meet Tiffany. She started using Estro2 Rejuvenate—our bioidentical estrogen cream—for her skin… but she noticed something unexpected.
• ---- In just two weeks, she saw her fine lines fade and her skin regain that glow we all miss in midlife. But here’s the twist—she also noticed her shoulder pain (that hadn’t budged, even after physical therapy) finally started easing up.

Her words:
“After using this cream for two weeks now I am so pleased with the feel and look of my face. It has smoothed my fine lines. With the help of collagen peptides and amino acids, I believe the estrogen in this cream has also helped alleviate my shoulder blade pain. I am so pleased with this cream and highly recommend it!”

• ---- Midlife magic? Not quite.

This is what happens when you give your body back what time has taken away—balanced hormones that actually work for you.

If your hormones feel “off,” your liver and gut might be behind the chaos.

Estrogen detox isn’t about green juices or harsh cleanses — it’s about how your body breaks down and eliminates used hormones every single day.

Here’s the deal:
Your liver sorts and neutralizes estrogen (Phases 1 + 2), and your gut eliminates it (Phase 3). When one of those steps stalls, estrogen can recycle back into your system — leading to symptoms like:

• Bloating or breast tenderness
• PMS or mood swings
• Fatigue or stubborn weight gain

You don’t need a detox kit — you need daily support for your body’s natural detox pathways.

Load up on cruciferous veggies, B vitamins, probiotics, and fiber — your hormones will thank you.

•• Hormone Harmony Essentials ••
Elevating your well-being starts with prioritizing your hormones!
• Here are my favorite ways to optimize that delicate hormonal dance:
- Work on Sleep:
Dreamland is where the magic happens! Prioritize quality sleep—create a soothing bedtime routine, dim the lights, and let your body unwind.
- Balance Exercise:
Find the sweet spot! Blend gentle movement, strength training, and activities that light up your soul. It's about harmony, not hustle.
- Eat Enough Protein:
Fuel your body right! Protein is your hormone's BFF, aiding in repair and balance. Include it in every meal to keep those hormones singing in harmony.
- Replace & Optimize Hormones:
Sometimes, a little fine-tuning is in order. Consult with experts, consider hormone replacement when needed, and let your body find its optimal balance.
- Bring More Joy in Life:
Happy hormones are the best hormones! Do what brings you joy—whether it's a hobby, laughter, or quality time with loved ones.
- Learn to Manage Stress:
Stress less, thrive more! Embrace mindfulness, meditation, or a quiet moment with a cup of tea. Your hormones will thank you.

If your metabolism feels stuck no matter how clean you eat or how hard you work out, your thyroid might be the missing link.

• When thyroid function slows down, every system in your body shifts into low gear.
• You burn fewer calories.
• You store more fat.
• You feel exhausted, foggy, and frustrated.

And it’s not always about your thyroid labs.
Sometimes your cells simply aren’t converting T4 into active T3 efficiently. That’s the version that actually fuels your metabolism, mood, and energy.

The good news is, you can support your thyroid naturally with the right nutrients. Think of it as giving your metabolism the raw materials it needs to run again—not forcing it with caffeine or extreme dieting.

Look for a high-quality thyroid support that includes L-Tyrosine, Coleus Forskohlii, and T2. These ingredients help spark energy at the mitochondrial level, where fat burning truly happens.

One of my go-to is Thyroid Fixxr™, a clean, next-generation thyroid support that helps women reignite their metabolism and energy naturally.

This right here is why I do what I do .

Jennie joined OnTrack to get clarity on her hormones and how to actually eat for her body in midlife — and she crushed it.

Here’s what she said:

“I love to listen to Karen's podcasts. She has very informative and knowledgeable guests which I've learned so much from. Karen does her best to help you figure out your hormone health and gives you a plan to reach your health goals. Also, the many and varied meal plans are tasty and easy to make. Thank you, Karen.” – Jennie, OnTrack Member

Every message like this reminds me how powerful it is when women take control of their health instead of settling for “this is just menopause.”

If you’re tired of guessing what your hormones, metabolism, and meals are supposed to look like in midlife — OnTrack is for you.

Thyroid hormones power your mitochondria—those tiny energy factories inside your cells.

When thyroid is low, so is your energy. Fatigue, brain fog, and oxidative stress become your new normal.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

“When Thyroid Is Low, Weight Loss Feels Impossible.”
Swipe to find out why your metabolism isn’t the problem—you’ve just been working against your biology.

Your thyroid is your body’s metabolic engine.
When it slows down, everything slows down:
-Metabolism
-Energy
-Digestion
-Motivation

Low thyroid = fat storage mode.
Even when you’re:
-Eating clean
-Exercising regularly
-Doing “all the right things”
Your body still clings to fat because your cells aren’t getting the message to burn it.

This isn’t about willpower—it’s about hormones.
A sluggish thyroid affects:
-Leptin (your hunger hormone)
-Cortisol (your stress hormone)
-Estrogen (your fat-storage hormone)
They all start working against you when your thyroid is off balance.

Common signs your thyroid is underactive:

Weight gain (especially belly fat)
-Cold hands and feet
-Thinning hair
-Constipation
-Low energy and mood swings
Sound familiar? You’re not lazy—you’re hormone-compromised.

The good news? We fix this every day.
With functional thyroid testing and personalized support,
you can reset your metabolism, rebalance your hormones, and finally see the scale move again.

We prescribe thyroid support in all 50 states.

Your body isn’t broken. It just needs the right support.

Are your hormones throwing you for a loop lately? 😩 One month your labs show low estrogen, and the next they’re off the charts — and you’re left wondering what’s going on.

This hormonal rollercoaster is a hallmark of perimenopause, and it’s more common (and more normal!) than you think. As progesterone dips and estrogen surges without balance, you might notice hot flashes, restless nights, mood swings, or breast tenderness.

The key is understanding that these fluctuations are your body’s signals, not its failures. 🌙
When you learn to interpret what your hormones are trying to tell you, you can take back control — and support your body with the right lifestyle, nutrition, and personalized care.

✨ Tune into this episode to demystify perimenopause and learn how to bring your hormones back into harmony.

If you’re in midlife and feeling tired, moody, and restless no matter how healthy you eat or how many supplements you take, here’s a secret most women overlook:
You might be low in magnesium.

Magnesium is one of the most important minerals for women in perimenopause and menopause — yet most of us are deficient without even knowing it.

This deficiency can show up as:
• Trouble sleeping
• Hormonal mood swings
• Fatigue and brain fog
• Stubborn weight gain
• Muscle tension or anxiety

When your magnesium levels drop, your body has a harder time managing stress, balancing hormones, and producing energy.

That’s why magnesium isn’t just another supplement — it’s a foundational nutrient for your hormone health and metabolism.

After trying countless forms of magnesium over the years, the one that truly made a difference for me is BiOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough.

It combines seven different types of magnesium that support every system in your body — from sleep to stress to hormones.
It’s pure, well-formulated, and you can actually feel the difference.

If you’re ready to sleep better, feel calmer, and finally get your energy back, this is where I’d start.

You deserve to feel calm, balanced, and fully alive again.
