There’s a lot of information out there on what to do when you’re hypothyroid. There’s a bit less information on what to do when you’re hyperthyroid. But there is a whole lot less information on what to do once your thyroid is gone (usually due to Hashimoto’s, nodules, or thyroid cancer). 

This information gap was brought to my attention by an attendee of my free hypothyroid heroes q&a coaching call (which I’ll be hosting again August 21, 6-7 pm, click here to grab your spot) and it was a topic that seemed worth exploring here with you.

Raise your hand if this sounds familiar:

You wake up in pain—slowly working your way out of bed, stretching and wincing as you go. Before you even brush your teeth, you’re popping an ibuprofen, hoping it'll get you through the day.

I get it. When you’re hurting, you want relief fast. And NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like Advil and Aleve) can seem like the easiest fix.

But here’s the problem: that little pill you’re reaching for each day might actually be keeping you stuck in a cycle of pain and inflammation long term. I k...

Navigating the world of nutrition these days feels like assembling a puzzle with pieces from different boxes—some fit, some almost fit, and some make you question if you’re even working on the right picture.

You can have world renowned experts preaching opposite nutrition philosophies - yet both make great arguments, both seem logical, and both have a slew of studies backing their claims.

So how are you supposed to make any decisions? How do you know worthy pursuits from time-wasters? How do you avoid spending money on more snake oil?

So how are you supposed to make any decisions? How do you know worthy pursuits from time-wasters? How do you avoid spending money on more snake oil?

Nearly a quarter of American adults - 52 million people - deal with chronic pain. The kind of pain that you might find brief relief from after a good massage, stretch session, or adjustment, but which always seems to come back with a vengeance. 

Why is it so hard to find relief that lasts?? 

It's the same reason I talk about all the time in regards to hypothyroidism... we aren't getting to the root of the problem. 

We're masking symptoms, playing in the shallow end of treatment, never digging deep enough to pull up the problem by its root...

Last week I started sharing the best biohacks for women (because we are not just small men and what we need to thrive looks very different from cold plunges and not eating 'til noon).

They were my takeaways from the Health Optimization Summit where I got to chat with some of the most intelligent, forward-thinking hormone experts in the world.

5. Wear my glasses as little as possible.

 Did you know most doctors won’t test for Hashimoto’s in their hypothyroid patients because it doesn’t change their course of treatment? Regardless of why you’re hypothyroid, they’re going to do one thing and one thing only: put you on thyroid medication. 

This is a massive disservice to us hypothyroid warriors given the fact that roughly 95% of hypothyroid cases are caused by hashimoto’s (if you’re unfamiliar, hashimoto’s is an autoimmune disease where the body attacks your thyroid gland). 

If we know why our thyroid is malfunctioning, we...

I don’t know about you but when it comes to making changes in my life, I tend to focus a lot on the doing part of the equation.
