Do you find yourself constantly worrying about what you eat, feeling guilty after meals, or struggling to enjoy food without overthinking it? If so, you're not alone. In this episode of Biohacking Bestie, guest Kim Shapira, founder of the Kim Shapira Method, shares her insights on how to cultivate a healthier relationship with food and find peace in your eating habits.

Together we dive into listening to your body's hunger cues and eating mindfully, how food should be seen as fuel for your body, rather than a source of stress or anxiety, and how to break free from the cycle of restrictive dieting and emotional eating.

Kim and I dive also deep into topics like intuitive eating, overcoming food obsession, and supporting friends who struggle with disordered eating.

Kim Shapira M.S., R.D. Is a celebrity dietitian/nutrition therapist and author with almost three decades of expertise under her belt, including work in hospitals, sports clinics, addiction centers, universities, and Trimly nutrition coaching (for those using a medical weight loss treatment plan). Kim has a B.S. in Exercise Science and Kinesiology from Tulane University and an M.S. in Human Metabolism and Clinical Nutrition from Boston University.

Real talk: There is a long-standing issue with misinformation in women's health, particularly concerning hormonal health and the historical dismissal of women's medicine by male physicians. In this episode of Biohacking Bestie, my guest Dr. Jolene Brighten not only addresses this but also dives into how society has normalized severe period pain and premenstrual mood swings, and how these symptoms should actually be seen as warning signs rather than the norm.

Dr. Brighten will also explore the often-misunderstood signals our bodies send us about hormonal imbalances, the critical impact of lifestyle and environmental factors on fertility and scientific findings that will change the way you approach your wellness

Dr. Jolene Brighten is board certified in naturopathic endocrinology and a certified sex counselor. Dr. Brighten is the author of Is This Normal, a non-judgemental guide to creating hormone balance, eliminating unwanted symptoms, and building the sexual desire you crave. She also wrote Beyond The Pill, which was the first book that introduced me to her work. Dr. Brighten empowers women worldwide to take control of their health and their hormones.
