  Aug 17, 202633 min

  So many of us are doing everything right. Nutrition dialed in, workouts done, sleep on track, and still thinking, "I just don't feel like myself." Dr. Naylor talks with Jessica Long, trauma-informed breathwork facilitator, certified menopause coaching specialist, and host of the podcast Midlife Advice, about why that missing piece so often comes down to nervous system regulation, and how breathwork became the tool that helped her reconnect with herself in perimenopause. We get into: ✔️ Why doing everything "right" still isn't enough ✔️ What interoception is and why midlife makes it harder to hear your body ✔️ The vagus nerve and one breath pattern that signals safety to your brain ✔️ Why talk therapy and mindset work alone often fall short ✔️ How long it actually takes to feel a difference ✔️ Expanding your capacity to handle stress instead of avoiding it If you've done all the things and still feel like something's missing, start here. Topics Covered: Why doing everything right still isn't enough Jessica's path from corporate marketing to breathwork Her perimenopause symptoms, dismissed by her doctor Dialed in everything, still felt off What interoception is and why it matters Why midlife makes it harder to hear your body Why slowing down feels so unfamiliar Where to start when you don't know where to start The vagus nerve and the exhale trick Why mindset work alone often falls short Working through resentment with breathwork How breathwork changed her work with patients Breathwork can also boost energy How long before you feel a difference The "band" concept: expanding your capacity for stress Where to find Jessica and her free sleep session Jessica Long's Links Podcast: Midlife Advice Website: belongwellness.com Instagram: @heyjessicalong Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.

Dr. Naylor talks with Dr. Erica Oberg, naturopathic doctor, concierge physician, and author of Healthy Hedonism: Why Feeling Good Is Good for You, about why that should list might be working against you and how adding pleasure, joy, rest and connection back into your day can actually undo some of the damage stress has been doing to your body.

  Finding Your Spark in Midlife

  Jul 27, 202653 min

  A lot of women hit their late 30s, 40s, or 50s and notice the same thing: whatever they used to do to stay healthy just stopped working. The workouts feel harder. The scale won't move. Nobody really explains why. Dr. Miranda Naylor talks with Heike Yates, a fitness coach with over 40 years in the industry and author of Pursue Your Spark, about what's actually going on in the body during this stage and how to build a routine around it instead of fighting it. Heike has coached her own clients through the same perimenopause and menopause changes she's experienced herself, and she's blunt about what's worth worrying about and what isn't. We get into: ✔️ Why your old routine stops working in your late 30s, 40s, and 50s ✔️ Why there's no such thing as a flat belly ✔️ How intense workouts can raise cortisol and work against you ✔️ Setting boundaries with yourself before anyone else ✔️ Why consistency beats intensity, and what "exercise snacks" are ✔️ Eating for your goals instead of someone else's diet ✔️ What actually helps with the 3am wake-up If your routine stopped working and you can't figure out why, start here. Topics Covered Why old routines stop working in midlife Heike's story, and why her coaching shifts every decade Why your body isn't "letting you down" There's no such thing as a flat belly Do we actually gain weight in perimenopause Comparing yourself to your family instead of an unrealistic body Why hard workouts can backfire on cortisol Setting boundaries with yourself and everyone else A simple way to practice saying no Consistency vs. intensity What "exercise snacks" are and why they count Getting burned out from constant high-intensity training The teacup trick for staying active during the day Empty nesting, caregiving, and finally having time for you Nutrition basics: protein at every meal, watching portions What a food diary actually shows you Is intermittent fasting right for you? Simplifying your plate instead of overthinking it Sleep struggles and the 3am wake-up A trick for quieting your mind at night The closing message: there's nothing wrong with you Where to find Heike and her book, Pursue Your Spark Heike Yates' Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heikeyates/?hl=en Podcast: https://heikeyates.com/category/podcast/ Website: https://heikeyates.com/ Book & Podcast: Pursue Your Spark Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.

  The Peptide Surge: Hype vs. Evidence

  Jul 20, 202639 min

  Peptides are having a moment, but between the hype, the celebrity mentions, and the DIY internet forums, it's genuinely hard to tell what's backed by real evidence and what's just noise. In this episode, Dr. Miranda Naylor talks with Dr. Jeff Gross, a fellowship-trained neurosurgeon who spent almost 30 years treating neck and back problems before moving into regenerative and longevity medicine. Jeff started using stem cells, exosomes and peptides to help patients stuck between "not bad enough for surgery" and "nothing else is working." It eventually became the focus of his practice, Recellebrate. Now he helps patients use these tools to support healing, muscle, skin, and long-term health. We'll explore: ✔️ What "FDA-approved" actually means and why it has nothing to do with whether something works ✔️ Why peptides have surged in popularity right now (and the role distrust in Big Pharma plays) ✔️ The real evidence base behind peptides, and why the big randomized trials don't exist ✔️ Jeff's favorite peptides for muscle, skin, and longevity, and how they pair with GLP-1s ✔️ The truth about where peptides are sourced and how to make sure yours are safe ✔️ Stem cells vs. exosomes vs. peptides, and when to use each ✔️ Common myths and misconceptions that keep people from trying these therapies ✔️ How to find the right clinician if you want to explore this path If you've been curious about peptides but weren't sure whether to trust what you're seeing online, this conversation should clear a lot of it up. Topics Covered: Why peptides are everywhere right now Jeff's path from neurosurgery to regenerative medicine Why peptides are surging in popularity What "FDA-approved" really means The actual evidence behind peptides Why Big Pharma can't patent natural peptides Jeff's favorite peptides and where he sees the best results GLPs, muscle loss, and saggy skin Muscle as a longevity organ Peptides for muscle: tesamorelin, ipamorelin, CJC-1295 The copper peptide GHK-Cu and skin rejuvenation Why hormone optimization matters alongside peptides Where peptides actually come from Compounding pharmacies vs. research-use suppliers Common myths and misconceptions Are peptides allowed for professional athletes? Stem cells, exosomes, and cell signaling 101 Stacking peptides and exosomes together How to get started safely Jeff's closing message: don't take no for an answer How to work with Dr. Jeff Gross Dr. Jeff Gross's Links: Website: https://www.recellebrate.com/ Social: @reCELLebrate Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.

  Why Eating Less and Exercising More Stops Working in Midlife

  Jul 14, 202638 min

  Many women in their late 30s and 40s come to Dr. Miranda Naylor with the same frustration, their weight and energy just aren't cooperating anymore, and nothing that used to work seems to work now. In this episode Dr. Naylor sits down with Stephanie and Marnie of The Art of Living Well podcast, two board certified integrative health practitioners, to talk about what's really going on with metabolism in midlife. They get into the perfect storm of hormones, muscle loss, stress and sleep that hits women hardest at this stage, and why the old rules around calories, cardio and intermittent fasting can actually backfire. We'll explore: ✔️ Why metabolism struggles in midlife aren't a willpower issue ✔️ How much protein you actually need and why most women are falling short ✔️ The connection between stress, cortisol and stubborn belly fat ✔️ Why alcohol affects women's sleep and metabolism more than we think ✔️ Simple, sustainable steps to start rebalancing your body today If you've felt like your body stopped listening to you somewhere in your 40s, this episode will help you understand why, and what you can actually do about it. Timestamps The concern Dr. Naylor hears from women in their late 30s and 40s Introducing Stephanie and Marnie of The Art of Living Well Why metabolism becomes such a big deal in midlife The perfect storm of hormones, stress and lifestyle Why this isn't a willpower problem What actually influences your metabolic rate Why strength training matters so much right now The role of protein and why most women aren't eating enough How much protein you actually need Aiming higher short term, then dialing it back Why tracking protein for a week can be so eye opening Listening to your body's signals Why stress doesn't get talked about enough How cortisol connects to belly fat Sleep, stress and that ripple effect on hunger hormones Getting stuck in the metabolic loop Small shifts that turn the spiral upward instead The insulin and blood sugar connection What a continuous glucose monitor can teach you Personal experiences wearing a CGM Why eating three real meals a day matters Rethinking cardio and where strength training fits in The truth about intermittent fasting and bio-individuality Why so many wellness trends are built for male bodies How women carry stress differently Why sleep quality matters more than hours What tracking sleep revealed The direct link between alcohol and sleep scores Small, sustainable steps to start with Where to start if this all feels like a lot The Vitality Reboot program explained Where to find Stephanie and Marnie Stephanie and Marnie’s Links: Podcast: The Art of Living Well podcast (search on any platform) Website: https://theartoflivingwell.us/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theartofliving_well/ 🎧 Hit Subscribe or Follow so you never miss an episode.
