Are you exhausted, losing hair, and gaining weight, but your labs keep coming back "normal"?

In this episode, Stephanie Crassweller breaks down the mineral most doctors are not testing properly: iron. But this is not a conversation about anemia. This is about why your body can have iron and still not be able to use it, especially in perimenopause.

You will learn:
• What iron actually does inside your cells — from oxygen delivery to mitochondrial energy production to hormone conversion
• How iron, thyroid, cortisol, and estrogen are connected — and why perimenopause creates a perfect storm of functional iron deficiency
• How to read a full iron panel (ferritin, TIBC, TSAT, hepcidin) and what the patterns mean
• The food, lifestyle, and lab strategies to start supporting your iron levels this week

If you have been told you are fine but you do not feel fine — this episode is for you.

You went on a GLP-1. You ate less. Your appetite disappeared. And the scale didn't budge. In this episode, Stephanie Crassweller breaks down the four scientifically backed reasons a GLP-1 fails to produce fat loss in women in perimenopause and menopause — and why three of them are things the drug actually makes worse.

If eating less was the fix, the drug would have fixed it. It didn't. Which means something else is blocking your body from burning — and Stephanie walks you through exactly what it is, what to test, and the order to fix it.

Your mitochondria are tiny engines inside your cells. They burn your fat, run your brain, and make your hormones. When they slow down in menopause, you do not just gain weight. You get tired, brain fog, and your hormones get harder to balance.

I walk you through the three stages to boost these fat burning cells:

➤ BUILD: how to make more mitochondria, including the minerals your body needs to turn T4 into T3.

➤ FIX: the parts your mitochondria need, the foods that clean up their waste, and the one supplement mistake that undoes your training.

➤ CLEAR: how to get the broken mitochondria out of the way.Plus all six hormones and what each one does to your engines, real doses, real foods, and the order to do it all in.
