📝Tuesday Tips: Why You Might Need Progesterone

You ever have one of those moments where you walk into a room and completely forget why you went in there?

So you stand there, hands on your hips, looking around like some invisible force will remind you. 

Then you give up, walk back to where you started, and suddenly remember.
That’s kind of what happens to your hormones as you age—except instead of just forgetting why they walked into a room, they forget how to help you sleep, balance your mood, and keep your metabolism running smoothly. 

One of the biggest culprits? Progesterone.

When people think about hormones and health, estrogen usually gets all the attention. But there’s another hormone that plays a crucial role in balancing the body, supporting overall well-being, and even aiding in weight management—progesterone. If you’re considering hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or wondering why progesterone is part of the conversation, today we'll break down why this hormone is so essential and how supplementing it can help you feel your best.

📝Tuesday Tips: How to Build a Morning Routine That Actually Works

Have you ever watched one of those “morning routine” videos online? 

Ashton Hall's got attention recently, but he's far from alone. 

Basically, someone wakes up at 4:30 AM, journals for an hour, meditates, runs 10 miles, makes a green smoothie, does skincare with 17 steps, and somehow still has time to watch the sunrise with a matcha latte. 

Yeah… that’s not real life. 

For most people, mornings are about trying to wake up without hitting snooze 10 times, figuring out breakfast, and getting out the door (hopefully on time).  

And that’s okay!  

The goal isn’t to turn into a superhuman before 7 AM—it’s about building a healthy and sustainable routine that actually fits your life. 

Let’s talk about realistic ways to start your day right—without the guilt, stress, or 4 AM ice-bucket challenges.

📝Tuesday Tips: When Medicine is More Art Than Science

Last Friday, I walked through the kitchen at home while my husband Nick was preparing dinner; he was making some concoction I've never seen before. 

Nick wasn't following a recipe and there wasn't a measuring cup to be seen. 
 
A pinch of salt here, a dash of spice there—everything was done by instinct, experience, and a deep understanding of flavor (or so I prayed). 

"Have you made this before," I asked. 

"No," he said. "It's different every time." 

"Is there a recipe?" 

"Cooking isn’t just about following a recipe. It’s about knowing how the ingredients work together.” 

That moment stuck with me because, in many ways, diagnosing and treating patients works the same way.  

Medicine, like cooking, isn’t always about precise formulas or one-size-fits-all solutions. While science gives us the foundation—the ingredients, if you will—true patient care requires a touch of artistry. Every person has their own history, lifestyle, and unique biological quirks that make textbook treatments only a starting point, not the final answer.

📝Tuesday Tips: Boost T-Levels, Lose Fat: The Power of Testosterone

John had always been active. In his 30s, he could hit the gym a few times a week, eat reasonably well, and maintain his weight without too much effort. (Guys have it easier, I know.)
 
But by the time he hit 45, things had changed.  

He was gaining weight, even though his habits hadn’t changed. His energy was at an all-time low, his workouts felt pointless, and by the time he got home from work, all he wanted to do was crash on the couch. 

Frustrated and at the urging of his wife (a previous client of mine!), John decided to get some lab work done.  

The results? His testosterone levels had plummeted. 

Low testosterone (Low T) was likely playing a huge role in his weight gain, energy levels, and even his motivation to stay active.  

After starting a personalized testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) plan, John saw the difference within weeks—his energy improved, his workouts became more effective, and the stubborn weight that had been creeping up for years finally started coming off. 

Testosterone plays a major role in metabolism, fat distribution, and muscle maintenance—and when levels drop, it can make weight loss significantly harder.  

If you’re struggling with unexplained weight gain, fatigue, or difficulty building muscle, testosterone therapy might be the missing piece of the puzzle.

📝Tuesday Tips: Why Weight Fluctuations Are Totally Normal

You finally do it—you tackle the giant mountain of laundry that’s been haunting your bedroom floor for a week.

Every sock, every shirt, every last towel is washed, dried, folded, and put away.

Victory!

But then, the next morning, you glance over—and somehow, there’s already more laundry.

Wait… didn’t you just finish this?

Regaining weight after losing it feels a lot like that laundry pile.

You worked so hard, made so much progress, and yet—here you are again. But just like laundry, maintaining weight loss is a continuous process. It doesn’t mean you failed—it just means you’re living life.

So, before you throw in the towel on your weight loss journey, let’s talk about why this happens and how to refocus on progress without guilt.

📝Tuesday Tips: I Can Make Your Business My Business

In 2005, Apple’s CEO at the time, Steve Jobs, called up Nike’s CEO Bill Perez and said, “You make great shoes. But some of them are kind of ugly.” 

Instead of taking offense, Nike’s CEO laughed and responded, “You make great gadgets, but some of them aren’t very wearable.”  

That honest conversation led to the Nike+ iPod partnership, which changed the way people tracked their workouts.  

Cute anecdote, right? Not exactly true, but I thought it demonstrates a nice point. 

Great things happen when businesses join forces—especially when they bring different strengths to the table. At The A-List Clinic, we believe in collaboration over competition, and we’re always looking to partner with like-minded businesses to help people achieve their health and wellness goals. 

If you own or manage a business in fitness, wellness, beauty, or healthcare, here’s how we can partnerfor mutual success.

📝Tuesday Tips: Why Experts Should Never Stop Learning

There I was, completely ignoring my half-full coffee. 

My brain was racing to keep up with a lecturer while I took furious notes about testosterone.  

I was sitting in a seminar (ok, technically watching on Zoom), more than a little glad the speaker wouldn’t be able to call on me for a question. 

It was then that a thought hit me— I felt exactly like I did back in nursing school.  
I had to laugh at myself. Here I am, a nurse practitioner with 10+ years of experience, still feeling like a student. But honestly? That’s the way it should be. 
 
Medicine, nutrition, and health sciences are constantly evolving. The “gold standard” advice from thirty (or even ten!) years ago might be outdated today.  

And what we think we know now will continue to change as research advances. If you ever meet a healthcare professional who thinks they’ve learned everything there is to know—run in the other direction.

📝Tuesday Tips: The Secret to Weight Loss: Don't Keep it a Secret!

A few months ago, I had a new client—we’ll call her Lisa—who came to me with a very specific request. 

She spoke in a hushed tone, as if we were discussing a state secrets. Nuclear codes, perhaps. Very Mission: Impossible. 

“I want to lose weight," she said, "but I don’t want anyone to know.”  

I nodded. (This is actually a common discussion.) 

Lisa sighed and continued. 

“My family loves big meals, and if I start eating differently, they’ll make comments... 

My husband always says he loves me the way I am, so I don’t want him to think I’m unhappy... 

And my friends? The second I say I’m trying to lose weight, they’ll start watching everything I eat, asking how much I’ve lost, or worse—waiting for me to fail.” 

Lisa’s concerns weren’t unusual. A lot of people feel pressure to keep their health goals private because they’re afraid of judgment, unsolicited opinions, or even the fear of failing in front of others. But keeping your weight loss journey a secret can actually work against you.  

Here’s why being open—even with just a few trusted people—can make all the difference.

📝Tuesday Tips: Can I use GLP-1's and 
Hormone Replacement Therapy?

In 2025, I am excited to talk to more friends and clients about hormone replacement therapy. We offer some services already at the A-List Clinic and it's my goal to expand our expertise in the coming year. It's not just a resolution, it's a promise! 

That said, I wanted to paint a broad overview this week of how hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and GLP-1s have overlap and differences. Mostly important, both methods are grounded in understanding and working with the body’s biology, but they address different underlying issues. To make informed decisions, it’s important to understand their mechanisms, similarities, differences, and how each may contribute to weight loss.
