Stop worrying about cholesterol.

Your labs are just one moment in time, they don’t tell the full story. Cholesterol doesn’t mean what you think it does, and it’s not the death sentence you’ve been told. What really matters?

👉 Your sleep
👉 Your food
👉 Your stress
👉 Your hormones
👉 Your movement

“Normal” doesn’t mean optimal and you know your body better than any number on a lab report. Start listening.

Can men get menopause?
Yes! they just call it andropause.

It doesn’t hit overnight like it can for women.
But make no mistake:
Men lose hormones too.
Testosterone drops.
Drive disappears.
They check out.
Not just from s*x but from life.

The worst part?
No one talks about it.
They’re told it’s just aging.
That it’s normal to lose interest.
To sit on the couch all day.

But guess what?
It’s not “just life”
It’s hormones. And men deserve support too.

Tag a guy who needs to hear this. 👇
Hormones aren’t just a woman’s issue.

Peptides can be life changing, but only if you do them right.

They’re not drugs. They’re compounds your body already makes when it’s in balance.

But balance is the key word. If your hormones are off or your lifestyle isn’t dialed in, peptides won’t fix it all. And if you’re buying them from sketchy sources or following internet hype, you’re wasting your time and risking your health.

Work with someone who has real experience. I’ve been using peptides with patients for over five years, and the results can be incredible when done safely and intentionally.

There’s no magic pill. But peptides can come pretty close when guided by the right expert.

Coffee first thing in the morning? Let’s rethink that.

After 7–8 hours of no water, your body wakes up dehydrated and going straight for caffeine just makes it worse.

☕️ I’m not anti-caffeine, but here’s the truth:
Too much too early revs up your system, raises cortisol, and messes with your energy later in the day.

Start your morning with water first. Then, if you’re reaching for that cup of coffee, tune in to how your body feels. That jittery, wired feeling? That’s your cue you’ve had enough.

Why are we still afraid to talk about this?

For too long, the 10 to 15 years around perimenopause have been treated like a black hole, a time women are supposed to quietly power through, pretending nothing is changing. But here’s the truth: there’s nothing wrong with this phase.

You’re getting wiser. You have experience. You have so much to bring to the table. Yet so many women still whisper, “I have a regular period” out of fear or embarrassment when the reality is their hormones are already shifting.

It’s time to stop hiding, stop pretending, and start owning this phase of life. Because when you do, you feel better, think clearer, and live fully.

Be careful where you’re getting your supplements especially creatine.

Not all brands are created equal, and quality matters.
If you’re putting something in your body every day, it should be clean, tested, and trusted.

This came up on my recent podcast convo with on Habits & Hustle
we got into the real talk about supplements, sleep, hormones, and everything in between.

My go-to? Momentous.
Triple third-party tested. Clinically backed. And yes, I actually use it.

Let’s raise the bar on what we call “healthy.”

Your liver doesn’t need another juice cleanse.
It needs you to sleep, hydrate, eat real food, cut the alcohol, and ease up on meds and supplements.

That’s real detox.
Not celery juice. Not the latest powder.
