Explorez tous les épisodes du podcast Catholic Women’s Metabolism | weight gain, fatigue, insulin resistance, stress hormones, thyroid health, perimenopause, and metabolic resilience

Are you exhausted, anxious, gaining weight, struggling with sleep, or feeling unlike yourself—but being told everything is “normal”?

You may be experiencing early perimenopause symptoms.

In this episode, we break down:

• What perimenopause actually is

• When it really starts (often earlier than most women realize)

• Common early signs

• Why so many women are dismissed or misinformed

• Practical first steps to support your hormones and metabolism

If you’ve been blaming stress, burnout, or yourself, this episode will help you understand what may really be happening.

Perimenopause can begin years before menopause, and subtle hormone shifts can impact your energy, mood, metabolism, and confidence long before you expect it.

This episode will help you stop guessing, start understanding your body, and take your next steps with clarity.

Perimenopause is coming—whether we feel ready or not. And for many women in their 30s and 40s, it brings a wave of questions about perimenopause symptoms, weight gain, fatigue, hormones, and metabolism.

In this series, we’re approaching perimenopause with honesty, nuance, and faith. No fear-based messaging. No empty “just accept it” advice. And no pretending you can control everything.

Instead, we’ll break down what’s actually happening in your body during perimenopause, what is within your control, and how to support your metabolism, hormones, and overall health through this transition. From weight changes and low energy to mood shifts and sleep disruptions—you’ll walk away with practical, realistic strategies you can use in your everyday life.

This is for the woman who wants to feel informed, prepared, and supported—without spiraling into fear or chasing unrealistic outcomes. If you’ve been wondering, “Is this perimenopause?” or “Why is my body changing?”—you’re in the right place.

Why is it so hard to follow the routines we carefully create?

In this episode, we’re talking about schedule integrity — the ability to honor the plan you already decided on — and why so many Catholic women feel stuck in the exhausting cycle of planning well and following through poorly.

After facing my own gap between intention and action, I went searching for wisdom deeper than productivity hacks… and found myself immersed in St. Benedict’s Rule of Life.

Over 1,500 years ago, Benedict was trying to answer the same questions we’re asking today:

• How do we balance prayer and work?
• How do we stay faithful inside real responsibility?
• How do we avoid burnout without becoming passive?
• How do rhythms create peace in a family or community?

If you are a Catholic woman who longs for: ✨ consistent morning prayer ✨ calmer days ✨ less decision fatigue ✨ follow-through on the habits that matter ✨ a Christ-centered home rhythm

this conversation will feel like oxygen.

Plus — I’m inviting you into a free Lenten experience in my new free community.  It’s a gentle, realistic morning rule of life built specifically for women in the middle of vocation, dishes, laundry, and real life.

Not intense. Not another $ wasted on a devotional you didn’t actually use. Not another program to fail.

Steady. Faithful. Repeatable.

We are growing in this together.

This is where the Lenten challenge will live, and your voice can help shape it.

Extreme exhaustion isn’t normal—and it’s not the price of motherhood, marriage, ministry, or faithfulness.

If your fatigue is stealing your patience, your presence, and your joy, your body may be crying out for something deeper than rest: minerals and metabolic support.

In this episode, I break down why so many women—especially faithful, high-giving women—are profoundly depleted, why “just resting” or “trying harder” isn’t fixing it, and how mineral depletion quietly sabotages energy, mood, hormones, and metabolism.

You’ll learn:

• Why chronic stress burns through minerals

• How depletion shows up as exhaustion, anxiety, and brain fog

• Why under-eating and over-disciplining make fatigue worse

• When food alone isn’t enough

• Why working with a dietitian matters for true restoration

✨ Enrollment for Restore is open—and this is the LAST WEEK to join with Early Bird bonuses. If you’ve been praying for clarity, energy, and the ability to live your vocation fully again, this episode is your sign.

I disappeared in 2025 from the podcast and all things online.  Where did I go, you might be wondering?? 

The truth is: I didn’t stop caring. I got more intentional.

In 2025, I made a decision to pause accepting clients—not because I wasn’t called to this work, but because I was “practicing what I preach” and needed to care for myself and my family on a different level.  

In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my 2025 AND breaking down what to expect in my 12-week group program, Restore.  

…so you can stop guessing, stop spiraling, and finally feel clear about whether this is your next step.

We’re covering: ✨ Who Restore is designed for ✨ Who it’s not for (with love + clarity) ✨ What the 12 weeks actually look like

If you’ve been praying about getting support… If you’re tired of “starting over” every Monday… If your body feels like it’s fighting you and you don’t know why…

This episode will help you think: “I feel clear. I feel safe. I know what to do next.”

🙏 Enrollment closes soon. If you’ve been praying about this, take the next faithful step. Apply for Restore now.

If you’ve been telling yourself that the answer is more discipline, more willpower, or one more restart — this episode is for you.

We talk about:

• Signs you’ve outgrown DIY approaches
• Why waiting often costs more than acting
• What support actually changes (and what it doesn’t)
• Who thrives inside Restore

If you’ve been quietly wondering, “Is it time?” This episode helps you listen honestly.

✨ Enrollment for Restore is open now✨

Spots are filling–apply at www.rootedwellness.academy/restore

Many Catholic women have been taught—explicitly or subtly—that caring for their body is vanity, weakness, or distraction from what “really” matters.

In this episode, we gently reframe that belief.

We talk about:

• The difference between stewardship and punishment
• Why caring for your body is not vanity, but responsibility
• How shaming yourself is hurting your health
• What Scripture actually says about nourishing and cherishing the body (Eph 5:29)

If your approach to food and health has felt tense, anxious, or misaligned with your faith, this conversation is an invitation to something quieter, steadier, and more peaceful.

✨ Restore begins in February.

Restore is my 12-week group program for Catholic women in their 30s and 40s who want to stop fighting their bodies and start supporting them — without dieting extremes.

Early applicants receive additional personal support, including a private 1:1 session, personalized lab + symptom review, and early voice-note access.

👉 Apply for Restore here: www.RootedWellness.Academy/restore

It often begins with good intentions — a desire to be disciplined, healthy, and faithful. But over time, food choices start to feel moral, guilt replaces peace, and caring for your body becomes heavy instead of life-giving.

In this episode, we talk about:

• How diet culture sneaks into faith spaces
• Why guilt often disguises itself as “discipline”
• How “off the wagon” thinking harms both metabolism and conscience
• What peace with food actually requires — physically and spiritually

If you’ve ever wondered why doing “everything right” still leaves you exhausted and discouraged, this conversation is for you.

You’re not failing.

You may simply be stuck in a cycle your body was never meant to carry.

✨ Restore begins February 9th ✨ Restore is my 12-week group program for Catholic women in their 30s and 40s who want to stop fighting their bodies and start supporting them — without dieting extremes.

What used to work in your 20s literally and physically doesn’t work anymore.  Let’s break it down in this episode:

• What changes hormonally and metabolically in this season
• Why dieting feels harder and gives worse results
• Why your body isn’t resisting — it’s adapting
• What support actually looks like now

If this episode strikes a chord with you, I’ve built a program based on this framework–Restore: A 12-Week Metabolic Reset for Catholic Women

A dietitian-led group program for Catholic women in their 30s–40s who are exhausted, gaining weight, and frustrated with their bodies — and want to restore energy, metabolism, and peace with food without dieting extremes.

What to Expect:

• Restore metabolic function without dieting extremes
• Support hormones, thyroid, and energy
• Learn how to nourish your body with confidence and consistency
• Find peace with food while honoring faith and physiology

This is not a weight-loss challenge. This is not a detox. This is not another plan that asks you to override your body.

Restore teaches you how your metabolism actually works—and how to support it for the long term.

As a woman who can seemingly conquer it all, is trying to "eat clean" and do the right things, yet feels like she is running on empty...

It's not your fault! Your body is simply begging you to support it in a different way.

This episode will unpack: -why so many faithful -disciplined women feel exhausted -the hidden cost of chronic under-fueling + stress -why “doing everything right” can still backfire

If this episode puts words to something you’ve been carrying quietly, I want you to know — you don’t have to figure this out alone.

What to expect in Restore:

• Stabilize energy
• Support hormones + metabolism

Hi friends, and welcome to a very special episode of the podcast! If you’ve been with me for a while, you know this show has always been about supporting women in their health journeys. Today, I’m excited to announce a big change: our podcast is rebranding as Catholic Women’s Metabolism.

 

This new name reflects exactly who we serve—Catholic women in their 30s and 40s navigating metabolism, hormones, and weight changes—and the evidence-based, clinically grounded education you’ll hear in every episode.

 

You may be wondering why the change. Over the last five years, I’ve realized that my listeners need more than general health tips—they need science-backed information, personalized for midlife women, delivered in a way that respects Catholic teaching on the body and moral health.

 

So, everything you’ve loved about this show—honest discussion, practical insights, and compassionate guidance—remains, but now the focus is sharper: helping you understand your metabolism, your hormones, and your health through a faith-aligned and clinically informed lens.

 

For those who may be new here, I’m Kristen Noriega, a Registered Dietitian and Integrative & Functional Nutrition–Certified Practitioner. I’ve worked with hundreds of women to understand the physiology behind weight gain, fatigue, insulin resistance, thyroid function, and perimenopause, and now I get to bring that expertise to you, right here in this podcast.

 

This show has also been recognized as a Top 100 podcast and independently named one of the Top 15 Catholic podcasts, which is truly an honor. I’m grateful for this community of women seeking clarity and health stewardship in alignment with their faith.

 

Moving forward, you can expect episodes that are:

•Educational and evidence-based, exploring metabolism, hormones, and weight regulation

•Faith-aligned, grounded in Catholic teaching about the body as a gift to steward

•Practical, with lifestyle strategies rooted in science, not extreme dieting or quick fixes.

 

Each episode will help you understand your body better, improve metabolic resilience, and feel confident in caring for your health in a nurturing, realistic way.

 

So here’s what I’d love for you to do:

1. SUBSCRIBE to the newly rebranded Catholic Women’s Metabolism wherever you listen to podcasts.

2. SHARE this episode with a friend or sister who might benefit from understanding their metabolism and hormones.

3. FOLLOW along on Instagram www.instagram.com/catholicmetabolism

If you give a mom her lab results, she's going to jump on Google.     When she's on Google, she's going to decide that she has a life-altering disease that is causing her weight gain.     After all that Googling, she's going to find her husband for a shoulder to cry on.     He'll suggest grabbing a diet book, so she hops on Amazon to purchase the latest fad-that-isn't-a-fad diet book.     While online, she's going to see that the return window has passed for the outfit that she ordered for Christmas that was 2 sizes too small.    Fed up, she'll head out the door to GoodWill to donate all of the clothes that don't fit her.     After she exits the highway, however, she'll drive right passed Chick-Fil-A, where she'll mindlessly turn in and grab her "healthy" comfort food.     As she grabs her fries, she notices the time and sprints off to pick the kids up from practice.  She'll roll straight into the madness that is her daily evening routine, so she'll push the weight loss planning (and the workout btw) until tomorrow.   Before going to bed she checks her email one last time and sees the notification about her lab results from her patients portal and starts spiraling all over….   The moral of this give-a-mouse-a-cookie story?  Don't rely on lab "results" alone to be your weight loss fix.     It can't be your only plan, because, let's be honest, the doctor's office isn't typically going to have a ton of follow-up and support for you.

Don't Go Another Holiday Season Without THIS Appetite Strategy. As a registered dietitian, I'm NOT saying to skip these sweets, I'm simply saying let's hack your appetite so that holiday foods have less of a hold on you. Get ready to take some notes for the 4-part strategy! BTW--If you're in your follicular phase (period through ovulation), this strategy is particularly GOLDEN. This is your last chance to tap into the Root Cause Restoration! www.RootedWellness.Academy/restoreyourhormones

There is a war on your hormones. It’s more than fatigue. It’s more than being unable to lose weight. It’s more than mood swings. You’ve lost control of your body, and it’s time to get it back. Let me introduce you to the  FUNCTIONAL DUTCH TEST The DUTCH test is a detailed functional test that will dig deeper than anything a doctor will order in a conventional medical setting. This test has the power to reveal warning signs of cancer, dysregulation in the gut, key hormonal issues that cause infertility, miscarriages, and premature delivery, root causes of weight gain, adrenal insufficiency and how stress and minerals are affecting your energy. PERSONALIZED PROTOCOL Based on the results that we get from your DUTCH test and any lab results from your doctor that you can provide, we will know exactly what your body is lacking and where we need to take action to restore balance to your hormones. I will create a personalized protocol that will pinpoint your exact issues and include a comprehensive restoration plan. It will optimize your health, balance your hormones, and help you avoid high-risk chronic illnesses. REVIEW APPOINTMENT After I pour over the data in detail, I will put it together in an easy-to-understand format so that you can truly comprehend what is going on with your body without any confusing advanced terminology that flies over your head. What the “traditional” healthcare system fails to do is to make you, the patient, fully aware of what is going on in your body. However, this appointment will ensure that you are crystal clear on what is happening in your body, what your body needs, and how you can best support it. FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENT After you have received your personalized protocol we will meet 3 weeks later to make sure that the plan is working with you and that you are able to effectively implement it in order to restore your hormones! Girl, it’s time for you to rise UP and pursue your health with fiery pursuit and passion. This offer has been extended a few days because it’s the juiciest deal of the year and I don’t want you to miss out!!

You deserve health, not another busted DIY attempt.

Is it a health-care system or a sick-care system?

Hippocrates, "Let food by thy medicine, and medicine be thy food". But it seems that the whole emphasis on "medicine" has outshined the other half of that statement.

Birth control given as early as 10 years old.

Antidepressants layered in 10-15 years later.

Cholesterol & blood sugar regulation meds thrown on top in 10 more years.

Chemotherapy or radiation for nearly 50% of us in another 10-20 years.

All the while we're eating food that's got chemicals known to cause hormone disruption, preservatives that lead to cancer, water laced with toxins.

How in the world are you supposed to shift away from the mainstream "sick and medicated" path toward a path that leads toward health?!?

 

As a registered dietitian, I have a unique opportunity to help you make that shift based on data from your very own body.

 

Let's dive into exactly what's working and what's not working in your very own body.

She could not lose weight for moooonths despite feeling better and having more energy. She could see and feel the healing changes take place, but my client, Lauren, was becoming increasingly frustrated at the stubborn scale--"Why can't I lose weight?!" Backing up her story, a bit, breastfeeding weight loss was no problem. But after weaning, her hormones went haywire and she gained back more weight than she desired. We used her lab results to create a targeted supplement plan and BOOM. The missing piece of the puzzle was found. It wasn't a one-size-fits-all nonprescription weight loss pill, by any means, but rather VERY targeted nutrients that supported her underlying hormonal imbalances. If you are in a weight loss plateau, Lauren's story is NOT one to miss! And even moreso, you don't want to sleep on your chance to join my 6-month group coaching program, the Weight Loss Blueprint.
