12. How We Can Help Our Painful Periods, Heavy Bleeding, and PMS Without the Pill20 Jan 202500:24:01

Hey Listeners!  

Women out there… Today we discuss how we can help our painful periods, heavy bleeding, and severe PMS symptoms without the use of the birth control pill!  

Were you aware that the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists now sees our monthly cycle as a vital sign?  Like our blood pressure and pulse, as women, our menstrual cycle is a sign of our health.  

If you or someone you love struggles with any of these issues, I encourage you to listen and share.  So many women deal with this on a monthly basis and there are natural solutions!  

God desires abundance for us and being free of these symptoms is a step in that direction!

07. The Digestive Issues of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and 3 Ways To Improve Your Symptoms16 Dec 202400:21:52

Hey listeners!  

 

Today’s episode is all about IBS.  IBS is NO JOKE… but the way it’s being treated is.  By that, I mean masking symptoms but not getting to the root of the problem. 

 

Often we think of IBS as just the “bathroom” symptoms. And those are nothing to be taken lightly (constipation, diarrhea, bloating, gas, abdominal pain...)

But IBS (aka poor gut health) can be SO MUCH more…It is also low energy, poor moods, brain fog, sugar cravings, weight loss resistance, anxiety, depression, pain (even fibromyalgia)

 

If you have been told you have IBS or you suffer from any of the symptoms listed above, I’m going to share 3 ways you can improve your symptoms starting today to begin feeling amazing again.  

 

I pray this empowers and educates you!

30. Alcohol and How it Affects Our Gut Health, Metabolism, and Hormones26 May 202500:31:24

Hey Listeners!

In this eye-opening episode, we’re diving into the not-so-happy side of happy hour. From gut health and metabolism to hormone balance and sleep, alcohol has a bigger impact on your body than you might realize. 

I share my personal story of discovering liver inflammation through a thermogram and unpack the science behind how alcohol can disrupt the gut lining, fuel candida overgrowth, spike cravings, and interfere with your body’s ability to process nutrients and hormones. Whether it's leaky gut, disrupted sleep, or estrogen dominance, there's a lot more going on behind that glass of wine than meets the eye.

But this isn’t about quitting altogether—it’s about drinking smarter. I’ll walk you through practical tips for improving your alcohol consumption, reducing hangover symptoms, and even enjoying social settings with mocktail alternatives and functional drink swaps. 

Plus, we touch on the virtue of temperance and the power of feeling good—physically, mentally, and spiritually—when you choose to consume more consciously. If you've ever wondered how alcohol really affects your body or want to enjoy your summer drinks without sabotaging your health, this episode is for you.

I pray this blesses you!

19. 4 Ways Busy Moms Can Boost Energy (and Productivity) and Feel Confident Again10 Mar 202500:22:11

Hey Listeners!  

Today’s episode highlights four ways for busy moms to boost their energy (and productivity) and feel confident again.  

Recording this episode left me with all the feelings!  

I had to revisit my past experience with low energy and confidence.

Too many nights of coming home and wanting to plop down on the couch and veg. Too many frustrating shopping trips, searching for new clothes because the old ones no longer fit comfortably.

Can you relate? 

To add, I had seen so much health information and advice out there but had no idea how to apply it to my life. Where should I even start?  

I went back to school and after years of learning nutrition and functional medicine, it all became clear to me.  

Today, I give you 4 steps to help you move forward so you can regain your energy and lose the weight you’ve been wanting to lose!   

If you know someone who could benefit from this information- please share it with them…

I pray this empowers and educates you!

29. Muscle and How it Affects our Hormones, Metabolism, and Gut Health19 May 202500:26:33

Episode 29. Muscle and How it Affects our Hormones, Metabolism, and Gut Health

In this episode, we dive deep into the powerful role muscle plays in our overall health, especially as we age. 

If you’ve ever hated cardio (like me!) and thought lifting was just for bodybuilders, this episode will flip that mindset. I share my personal journey of ditching the idea of long runs and embracing strength training—and how it made me feel strong without the breathless misery. 

We bust the myth that lifting makes women bulky and highlight how building muscle actually improves hormone balance, boosts metabolism, and supports gut health. From increasing testosterone levels (yes, women need it too!) to lowering insulin and supporting bone density, muscle is truly metabolic gold.

If you’re in your 30s or beyond, resistance training shouldn’t be optional—it’s essential. We talk about simple ways to get started. 

Muscle loss doesn’t have to be your future. Feel the difference in your clothes, energy, and confidence. It’s never too late to begin—join us in the May Momentum Program. Book a call at www.callwithsara.com

The best time to start was years ago. The second best time is now.

I pray this blesses you!

28. How Your Gut Health Is at the Root of Your Sweets Cravings, Fatigue, Moodiness, and Low Metabolism12 May 202500:24:58

🎙️ Episode 28: How Your Gut Health Is at the Root of Your Sweets Cravings, Fatigue, Moodiness, and Low Metabolism

Hey friend—if you’ve ever found yourself knee-deep in peanut M&Ms, snapping at your family, dragging through the day with zero energy, or wondering why your metabolism feels stuck... this episode is for you.

I’m sharing my own story of sugar cravings, mood swings, and feeling totally off—and how gut health was at the center of it all. From detox struggles to functional medicine breakthroughs, I’ll walk you through what I wish I’d known sooner.

We’ll share simple swaps you can make today to feel better—mind, body, and spirit.

📖 Quotes to Remember:

“The human body has a ringmaster... It controls your digestion, your immunity, your brain, your weight, your health, and even your happiness. This ringmaster is the gut.” — Nancy Mure

“Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.” — St. Catherine of Siena

💛 Final Thoughts:

For years, I wasn’t living my full potential—not because I didn’t want to—but because I didn’t feel well. Now that I’ve healed, I want the same for you. We have work to do—God’s work—and that starts by taking care of the body He gave us.

I pray this blesses you!

With love,

Sara — Nourish Health Coaching

Hey Listeners!

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the world of intermittent fasting—what it is, how it works, and how it can support weight loss, hormone balance, and more energy, especially for busy women like you. I’m breaking down four of the most common questions I hear all the time, like “Am I doing this right?” or “Will this work for me?” 

Whether you’ve been curious about fasting or feeling unsure if it’s safe (especially if you’ve said, “But I have low blood sugar!”), this episode is packed with helpful insights, real talk, and simple strategies to help you do fasting the right way.

We’ll chat about everything from how fasting taps into stored fat for energy, the role of ketones and growth hormone, to the incredible benefits of autophagy, better sleep, and even gut repair. 

If you’ve ever felt confused about when to eat, how your cycle or hormones play into fasting, or whether your morning coffee is breaking your fast—this is the episode for you. Let's take the guesswork out of eating and unlock the healing power already built into your body.

34. Beyond Ozempic- How to Naturally Improve Your GLP-1 for Fat Loss23 Jun 202500:22:12

Hi Listeners!

In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers on GLP-1—the powerful hormone your body already produces that helps regulate blood sugar, curb cravings, and support weight loss. While drugs like Ozempic have brought GLP-1 into the spotlight, the truth is, your body is not broken—it just needs the right support. 

We’ll explore how gut health, protein intake, strength training, sleep, and stress all play a role in naturally optimizing your GLP-1 levels. You’ll also learn why relying solely on medication might set you up for weight regain and muscle loss—and how to avoid that path.

Whether you’re currently using a GLP-1 agonist or simply looking for sustainable weight loss strategies, this episode is for you. I share real tools and practices I use with my clients to reduce food noise, improve satiety, and build an amazing metabolism. From the right probiotics to strength training and spiritual mindset work, you’ll walk away with action steps you can take today. 

It’s not about willpower—it’s about understanding your body and nourishing it well. Book a free call to learn how to work with me and join our incredible health coaching community! (www.callwithsara.com)

33. Insulin Resistance: The Reason You Struggle with Fatigue, Moodiness, and Weight Loss16 Jun 202500:22:35

Hi Listeners!

Are you constantly tired, craving carbs, and frustrated with stubborn weight that just won’t come off—no matter how healthy you think you're eating? You might be dealing with insulin resistance, and chances are, no one has explained it to you this way before. 

In this episode, I share my personal journey from pharmacist to functional medicine advocate, and how I went from thinking insulin resistance only applied to diabetics… to realizing it was one of the hidden forces sabotaging my own health. 

We’ll unpack how insulin should work, what happens when your body stops responding to it, and why it completely derails your metabolism, mood, and energy.

You’ll learn the top symptoms to watch for, the labs to request, and—most importantly—how to start reversing insulin resistance with practical, real-life changes. Plus, grab my free Eat Clean Snack List (below) to start making blood sugar-friendly swaps today—no guesswork needed!

I pray this blesses you!

32. How Birth Control is Causing Your Fatigue, Mood Swings, and Weight Gain (And What You Can Do About It!)09 Jun 202500:21:24

Hi Listeners!

Is your birth control silently wrecking your energy, mood, and metabolism? In this eye-opening episode, I’m diving deep into a topic I’m deeply passionate about—not just as a former pharmacist, but as a woman who’s been there. 

You’ll hear my personal story of how birth control impacted my health, and why so many women I’ve worked with are dealing with the aftershocks of post-birth control syndrome. We’ll break down how the pill affects your hormones, gut health, and metabolism—contributing to symptoms like chronic fatigue, mood swings, weight struggles, acne, and irregular cycles. This isn’t about being anti-birth control—it’s about being pro-informed so you can make empowered choices for your body.

We’re covering what you weren’t told at the doctor’s office, how synthetic hormones disconnect your brain from your ovaries, and why masking symptoms with medication can worsen the root issue—whether that’s blood sugar instability, gut dysfunction, or nutrient deficiencies. I’ll also walk you through real, actionable steps you can take to begin restoring your energy, balance your hormones naturally, and feel confident in your body again. 

If this episode resonates with you, please share it with a friend or on social media. Your story and your healing journey could inspire someone else to start theirs.

I pray this blesses you!

39. Why Iron Supplements Aren't Helping Your Anemia or Fatigue28 Jul 202500:19:26

Hi Listeners! 

In this episode, we’re diving into a major myth about anemia that could be keeping you exhausted and frustrated. If you've been told to take iron supplements to fix your low energy—but they're not helping—this conversation will open your eyes. I share my journey from what I was taught in pharmacy school to what I’ve now learned through functional and root cause medicine. You’ll discover how iron overload, not deficiency, is often the real problem—and how this contributes to oxidative stress, poor mitochondrial function, and even chronic conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, and insulin resistance.

We’ll explore how enzymes, copper, and trace minerals like magnesium play a key role in helping your body use iron properly, and how remineralizing can restore your energy from the inside out. You’ll learn practical tips to support your metabolism, avoid harmful iron sources, and why blood donations might be one of the best things you can do for your health. If you’re tired of bandaid solutions and want to feel vibrant again—this episode is for you.

I pray this blesses you!

37. 7 Consistent Habits of Healthy Busy Moms14 Jul 202500:18:39

Hi Listeners! 

 

In this episode, I reflect on my own health journey—from obsessive calorie counting and punishing cardio sessions to discovering a more freeing, faith-filled path to wellness. If you’ve ever thought that being healthy meant restriction, guilt, or rigid routines, you're not alone. I’ve been there, too—and now I know better. Today, I’m breaking down the 7 key habits I’ve seen in the healthiest and busiest moms I know. These women aren’t perfect—but they are vibrant, grounded, and thriving.

We’ll talk about everything from nourishing your gut, eating whole foods, and moving with joy—not stress—to making space for prayer, gratitude, and deep rest. This isn’t another "do more" checklist. It’s a reminder that your health is a gift and a tool for living out your purpose. Whether you’re overwhelmed, just starting out, or need a reboot, this episode will inspire you to make sustainable changes—rooted in truth, not trends.

I pray this blesses you!

36. The Keto Diet- How it Affects Our Hormones, Gut Health, and Weight Loss07 Jul 202500:25:13

Hi Listeners!

Is the keto diet the magic solution for weight loss—or is it another trend that leaves women feeling drained, deprived, and imbalanced? In this episode, we’re diving deep into what keto actually is, how it impacts your hormones, gut health, and metabolism, and why not all keto is created equal. From dirty to clean keto, we’ll unpack the marketing hype, the science behind ketosis, and the very real effects these diets can have on your energy, digestion, and long-term health.

I also share my personal journey of chasing quick fixes with processed “keto-friendly” foods. We’ll talk about hormone-friendly keto strategies, the dangers of extreme restriction, and why fiber, whole foods, and a cyclical approach may be the key to sustainable success. If you’re a woman trying to make sense of it all, this episode will give you the clarity (and confidence) to nourish your body in a way that works for you.

I pray this blesses you!

35. How to Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth While Still Reaching Your Goals and the Skinny on Sugar-Free Alternatives30 Jun 202500:22:59

Hi Listeners!

If you’ve ever felt like sugar has a hold on you, you’re not alone—and you’re definitely not weak. In this episode, I’m opening up about my own journey from sugar obsession to sweet freedom. We’ll talk about why cravings happen (it’s not always lack of willpower), how sugar affects your gut and metabolism, and the sneaky ways it’s been hijacking your energy, mood, and weight loss efforts. I’ll share the small but powerful changes I made that helped me retrain my taste buds, stabilize my blood sugar, and finally feel in control again.

You’ll also get the real scoop on sugar-free alternatives—what to use, what to avoid, and why some “healthy” options may be doing more harm than good. Plus, I’ll share practical tips to enjoy treats without the guilt, including how to time your sweets for less blood sugar impact and my go-to low-sugar swaps. Whether you’re looking to cut back, ditch the sugar addiction, or simply make smarter choices, this episode will give you tools, hope, and a big dose of encouragement.

I pray this blesses you!

45. Supplements 101: Best Picks, Big Red Flags, and My Surprising Favorites08 Sep 202500:27:39

Hi Listeners!  

Supplements can be confusing—some are worth every penny, while others are nothing more than “expensive urine.” In this episode, I share the truth about the supplement industry, including the big red flags to watch out for, why brand quality matters, and how to avoid the common mistakes most people make when shopping for vitamins. 

As a former pharmacist turned nutrition coach, I’ve seen both sides—prescriptions that cover up symptoms and natural approaches that address the root cause. Today, I’ll walk you through the supplements I personally use with my family and why some of the most popular products on store shelves might be doing more harm than good. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by all the options, this episode will give you clarity and confidence in choosing supplements that truly serve your health.

44. How Moms Can Build a Healthy Family Culture and Leave a Generational Impact01 Sep 202500:26:31

Hi Listeners!  

In this episode of the Improve Energy Podcast, I sit down with someone very special—my right-hand girl, Kara. Not only has she been a huge part of our team behind the scenes, but she also began her journey with Nourish Health Coaching as a client. Kara opens up about how choosing a healthier lifestyle has transformed the way she shows up as a mom, created a positive family culture, and inspired her to think about the lasting generational impact of her choices.

We talk about the power of consistency over quick fixes, why accountability and community make such a difference, and how embracing health as a lifestyle—not a sprint—can change everything. Kara’s story is relatable, encouraging, and full of wisdom for busy moms who want to take small but powerful steps toward better energy, health, and confidence.

43. Smart Snacking to Support Hormones, Gut Health, and Metabolism25 Aug 202500:19:38

Hi Listeners!  

 

Snacking has become a way of life for most of us—but is it actually helping your health, or quietly holding you back? In today’s podcast, we’ll talk about why our bodies were never designed for constant grazing and how the snack industry convinced us we need to eat every few hours. You’ll learn how too many snacks can disrupt your hormones, slow your metabolism, and even feed the wrong bacteria in your gut. I’ll break down what’s really happening with your blood sugar when you reach for “naked carbs” like chips, grapes, or even watermelon, and why those quick bites may leave you hungrier instead of satisfied.

Of course, there are times when your body truly needs a snack—and when that happens, I’ll show you how to do it the smart way. You’ll get a list of my go-to, whole-food snack ideas that keep blood sugar steady, support gut health, and give you sustained energy—whether you’re at home, work, at a ball game, or running errands. If you’ve been struggling with low energy, stubborn weight, or constant cravings, this episode will give you the tools to fuel your body intentionally and break free from the snack trap once and for all.

42. Getting Out of Your Own Way: How to Get Motivated and Stay Committed for Change18 Aug 202500:21:29

Hi Listeners! 

If you’ve ever found yourself stuck—knowing you need to make a change but not following through—this episode is for you. We’re going beyond weight loss and digging into the deeper why behind your desire for health: energy, confidence, joy, and the ability to show up well for those you love. You’ll hear real client stories, learn how to shift from perfectionism to progress, and discover the power of inviting God into your wellness journey. Health isn’t just about how you look—it’s about how you live, and that starts with obedience, consistency, and grace.

We’ll also talk about how self-care is a form of worship and why developing daily disciplines—not just waiting for motivation—leads to lasting transformation. You’ll leave this episode encouraged, equipped, and reminded that it’s not about doing it perfectly—it’s about staying the course and honoring the body God gave you. Ready to start showing up for you? Let’s go!

48. Autoimmune Disease, Hypothyroid & Hashimoto’s: Could This Explain Your Fatigue and Low Metabolism?29 Sep 202500:27:25

Hi Listeners! 

Autoimmune conditions are on the rise, tripling in the last 30 years, and many women don’t even realize their daily symptoms could be connected. In this episode, we dive deep into autoimmunity with a spotlight on hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s — the most common autoimmune thyroid disease. From fatigue, brain fog, and hair loss to stubborn weight gain and mood changes, these symptoms are often dismissed or treated with band-aid fixes. But the truth is, your body isn’t broken — it’s sending signals that something deeper is going on.

We’ll explore how gut health, hormones, blood sugar, and stress all play a role in triggering autoimmunity and how lifestyle adjustments can help you move from survival mode to thriving. You’ll learn why testing beyond just TSH matters, how gluten and gut permeability are tied to thyroid issues, and the small but powerful shifts that can calm your immune system and restore your energy. If you’re ready to understand what’s really behind your hypothyroid symptoms and take back control of your health, this episode will give you the roadmap to start your journey.

47. Hormone Balancing Foods to Boost Energy, Improve Moods, and Increase Your Metabolism (with Amanda Jeffres)22 Sep 202500:33:21

Hi Listeners!  

Hormones are your body’s communication system—and when they’re out of balance, everything feels harder. Fatigue, mood swings, cravings, poor sleep, and even digestive struggles are often signals that your body is asking for support. In this episode, I sit down with nurse-turned-health coach Amanda Jeffres to explore how nutrition plays a critical role in hormone balance.

Amanda shares her personal story of navigating irregular cycles, infertility, heavy periods, and PMS—and how addressing gut health, blood sugar balance, and cycle awareness helped her reclaim her health. Together, we cover four key nutrition strategies to support your hormones, from balancing blood sugar and nourishing gut health to fueling with healthy fats, proteins, and cycle-specific care.

If you’ve ever wondered how to eat in a way that supports your energy, mood, and metabolism at every stage of life, this episode will give you clarity, encouragement, and simple steps you can start today.

49. Why Christian Moms Feel Exhausted and Stuck: The Hidden Link Between Insulin Resistance, Moodiness, and Weight Loss Resistance06 Oct 202500:28:38

Hi Listeners! 

Are you exhausted, moody, and frustrated that no matter what you try, weight loss feels impossible? You’re not alone—and the hidden link might be insulin resistance. In this episode, I uncover why so many Christian moms are struggling with low energy, mood swings, and stubborn weight, often without realizing their blood sugar is at the root. You’ll learn why insulin resistance starts years before a diabetes diagnosis, why traditional advice like “eat better and exercise more” often fails, and how this silent issue could be holding you back in every area of your health.

The good news? Insulin resistance can be reversed! I’ll walk you through practical steps to start restoring your energy, balancing your moods, and finally turning your body back into a fat burner. We’ll also talk about the spiritual side of health—how inviting God into your wellness journey can transform not only your body, but your patience, peace, and ability to show up well for your family. This episode is about breaking free from exhaustion and reclaiming the vibrant, God-honoring life you were created to live.
