Before you touch TRT or crank up your dose, fix the systems that actually determine whether your hormones work.

Most men don’t have just a testosterone problem.

They have a regulation problem.

Poor stress control, trash recovery, broken dopamine cycles, under-eating, over-training… and then TRT gets blamed when nothing changes.

If you want performance, strength, drive, and a clear head, you need more than injections.

You need your biology firing in the right direction.

This is what we fix inside The Edge Method.

Smart, strategic optimization. No shortcuts. No hype. Just results that actually hold.

DM EDGE to apply.

As if we need one more thing to stress about.

Self care is supposed to help calm and reset you.

Instead research found that having too rigid of a routine actually has the opposite effect, increasing anxiety and decision fatigue.

Turns out our brains don’t want another to-do list.

My advice is to always find the minimum effective dose and stick with that. You can always sprinkle extras in here and there, but don’t make them an obligation.

Who else is into less is more?

Some researchers tried to figure out why a handful of women stay insanely consistent in the gym while others regularly find themselves negotiating with the universe about a 20-minute workout.

Here’s what they found:

It wasn’t willpower.
It wasn’t motivation.
It wasn’t discipline, more time, or “wanting it more.”
And it DEFINITELY wasn’t “chasing a summer body.”

The women who stayed consistent had one thing in common:

Exercise made them feel calm.

Calm.

They kept showing up because the gym was the only place where their brain finally got to turn off.

Where the stress dropped.

Where they felt strong, grounded, and in control again.

Even if the rest of their life was chaos.

Consistency wasn’t a character trait.

It was nervous-system regulation.

If you’ve been trying to force motivation…you’re fighting the wrong battle.

Find the movement that makes you feel peaceful, and consistency gets a whole lot easier.

For me that was weights, walking and dance.

I said what I said.

Detox teas and juice cleanses are a giant waste of money and just giving you expensive 💩

You have a liver, kidneys and plenty of other organs designed specifically to rid your body of harmful waste.

Rather than pumping it full of diarrhea inducing “cleanses” a few times a year, why don’t you help it do its job by cutting out the crap and supporting it with real food?

If you need help with that, DM me.

The biggest skin-wreckers aren’t what you’re putting ON your face
They’re the “health” foods hiding in your kitchen.

When you eat low-fat, seed oil–loaded, or ultra-processed “fit” snacks, you:

spike inflammation,
weaken your barrier,
and block collagen repair.

Your skin reads it all as stress.

Try this instead:
• Cooked variety of veggies for antioxidants
• Real butter, olive oil, and tallow over seed oils
• Red meat + minerals for collagen synthesis
• Enough calories to actually heal

Your skin is an organ and you need to feed it like one.

Save this post for your next grocery run.
Real nourishment = real results.

Wresting my kids into the bath and their pajamas routinely beats out a brisk walk or pilates class.

Considering there is also getting them ready in the morning and the multiple transitions in and out of car seats, I’m basically working out multiple times a day.

Or at least that’s what Apple Fitness Tracker thinks.

This one was requested sooooooo—-Let’s talk s*x.
Not fantasies—biology.

🧬 Men’s testosterone = steady drive.
🌸 Women’s libido = cyclical, tied to safety + stress.
😩 Modern life keeps women in fight-or-flight—job, kids, house, emotional labor.

You’re not low-drive—you’re stressed.

I’m sick of it! So here’s the truth:

The wellness industry has women eating like rabbits
and wondering why they feel like roadkill.

Here’s the truth 👇

🥩 Red meat supports thyroid, iron, and dopamine.
🧈 Butter + egg yolks keep hormones firing.
🥬 Too many raw greens block iodine → slow thyroid.
🧂 Salt + carbs calm cortisol.
🥛 Diet foods + seed oils = inflammation overload

Stop feeding yourself like a detox project.
Eat like a human with hormones to protect.

Save this for your next grocery trip
and tag the friend still living on kale and protein bars.

It’s just not designed to override your body’s habits.
