    159: Hashitoxicosis: When Your Thyroid Swings Too Far | Lizzie Ens
    2026/09/22
    Signs of hyperthyroidism are easy to miss, especially when they show up as heart palpitations, unexplained heat, or exhaustion that will not go away. If your heart has started racing for no clear reason, you feel hot when everyone around you is comfortable, or you wake up from a full night of sleep still tired, an overactive thyroid could be the reason. Hyperthyroidism symptoms get mistaken for anxiety, perimenopause, or plain burnout more often than not, which is almost exactly what happened to Lizzie Ens.Lizzie Ens, functional nutrition coach, business owner, author, and speaker, walks you through the exact signs of hyperthyroidism she started noticing when her own thyroid swung from subclinical hypothyroidism into hashitoxicosis. Using her real blood work, including a free T3 level of 13 when healthy range tops out around four or five, and her Oura Ring heart rate data, Lizzie breaks down what was actually happening inside her body. You will hear why heart palpitations, feeling hot to the touch, insane nighttime itching, and constant fatigue can all point to an overactive thyroid, plus the theory she has connected it back to something deeper, suppressing your voice. If something in your body feels off and you cannot explain why, this is where you start paying attention.In this episode, you’ll learn:Why heart palpitations that wake you up at night, especially without anxiety, can be one of the clearest signs of hyperthyroidism rather than stress or caffeine.How a simple blood panel revealed Lizzie's free T3 level had climbed to 13, more than double the healthy range, and what that number actually means for your metabolism.What hashitoxicosis is and why a sudden swing from Hashimoto's antibodies into hyperthyroid territory can happen even years after a hypothyroidism diagnosis.Why feeling hot to the touch, insane nighttime itching, and looser stools can all be overactive thyroid symptoms most people never connect to their thyroid at all.How to tell the difference between hyperthyroidism fatigue and normal tiredness, including why a full night of sleep can still leave you feeling like you worked out.Lizzie's theory that hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's are tied to suppressing your voice, and why finally speaking up may have pushed her thyroid the other direction.Why using an Oura Ring to track heart rate and HRV helped Lizzie catch that something was wrong before her symptoms became a bigger problem.We talk about:00:00 Hyperthyroidism versus hypothyroidism and the signs ahead00:24 Why Lizzie is talking about hyperthyroidism from personal experience01:14 What hyperthyroidism actually does to your metabolism03:24 The moment Lizzie knew something was wrong at an event04:29 Getting an EKG after weeks of heart palpitations06:09 Blood work results and a free T3 of 1307:31 What is hashitoxicosis and why her antibodies swung so high08:00 The full list of hyperthyroidism signs to watch for09:00 Why hyperthyroidism can leave you exhausted despite a full night's sleep11:14 Getting a thyroid ultrasound and what it showed13:59 Could suppressing your voice be connected to thyroid imbalance18:38 What to do if you think your thyroid is offReady to stop guessing and start healing at the root?

    158: The Weight Comes Off When You Fix This First | Lizzie Ens
    2026/09/15
    Still feel fat after losing weight? Lizzie Ens says the scale was never the problem, your relationship with yourself is. If you have done the six-week program, hit your protein goals, or even used a GLP-1 and the number finally moved, but you still see yourself as overweight, not enough, or stuck repeating old patterns, this episode explains why. Self-sabotage after weight loss, body image struggles after a real transformation, and the urge to keep chasing a smaller number all trace back to the same unfinished work: the relationship you have with yourself.Lizzie Ens, functional nutrition coach, business owner, author, and speaker, walks you through why your mind, not your meal plan, decides whether results stick, using a real client story of a postpartum mom who lost almost 30 pounds in Lizzie's six-week Undiet You program and came off her postpartum depression medication for good. You'll hear why a friend who dropped significant weight still saw herself as overweight years later, why growing up Amish taught Lizzie that shame and true freedom cannot coexist, and why the only thing actually holding you back from the body and life you want is you. If you are ready to stop settling for mediocre, this is where you begin.In this episode, you’ll learn:Why losing weight on a GLP-1 or any plan does not fix a bad relationship with yourself, and why the number on the scale can drop while your self-image stays exactly the same.How to tell if your identity is still attached to your old body, using the real story of a friend who lost significant weight but still saw himself as overweight.Why your relationship with yourself, not your food or your workouts, decides whether weight loss actually sticks or whether you end up right back where you started.A real client story of a postpartum mom who lost almost 30 pounds in the six-week Undiet You program and came off her postpartum depression medication for good.How growing up Amish, wearing shame around every emotion, and eventually leaving the religion taught Lizzie what true freedom actually requires.Why the excuse that you do not have time for your health is really a decision, and what to do instead if money or time feel like the real obstacle.Why the only thing actually holding you back from the body and life you want is yourself, and how to finally stop settling for mediocre.We talk about:00:00 Why so many people stay stuck and never take control of their health01:41 Why most people resist changing even when they are miserable03:24 Inside the six week Undiet You program and how to still join04:13 A client's nearly 30 pound postpartum transformation08:05 Growing up Amish and why nothing today compares to the farm10:11 How your 30s set the stage for your 40s and 50s11:10 What is your mind really telling you13:46 Why your relationship with yourself is the most important one14:46 Why you can lose weight on a GLP-1 and still feel broken16:21 Growing up in shame around every emotion in the Amish community19:07 What is really holding you back from true freedom22:42 Why the only thing stopping you is youReady to stop guessing and start healing at the root?

    157: Why You Can’t Lose Weight and Keep It Off Until You do THIS | Lizzie Ens
    2026/09/08
    Trauma and weight loss are more connected than most people realize, and if you have done everything right on paper, tracked your food, hit your steps, and cleaned up your diet, and the scale still will not move, unresolved trauma is often the reason your body will not let go. Suppressed emotions, unspoken resentment, and old wounds do not just sit in your mind, they get trapped in your liver, your kidneys, your lungs, and even your fat cells, and your body holds onto weight for as long as it is holding onto pain. If you are stuck despite doing all the physical work, this episode explains why the missing piece is almost never food.Lizzie Ens, functional nutrition coach, business owner, author, and speaker, walks you through why healing from trauma and triggers has to happen before your body will fully cooperate, using real client stories including a woman whose back injury kept returning until she faced the emotion she was avoiding, and a case where forgiving a broken relationship coincided with a cancer diagnosis clearing. You will learn why anger gets stored in the liver, fear in the kidneys, and grief in the lungs, why resentment from poor boundaries disrupts your gut microbiome, and how the same self-worth blocks that stall a business also stall your health. If you are ready to stop blaming your body and start doing the deeper work, this is where you begin.In this episode, you’ll learn:Why trauma, triggers, and suppressed emotions can block weight loss even when your diet, exercise, and sleep are dialed in, and why the needle will not move until you address them.How specific emotions get physically trapped in the body, with anger stored in the liver, fear in the kidneys, and depression in the lungs and heart.Why poor boundaries and chronic resentment disrupt your gut microbiome, and how stress alone can wreak more havoc on digestion than food ever could.A real story of a client whose recurring back injury during workouts stopped only after she identified and released the emotion she had been avoiding.Why unforgiveness can show up as physical illness, including a story about how forgiving a strained family relationship coincided with a cancer diagnosis clearing.Why you cannot blame outside criticism or other people for your setbacks, and how every trigger is actually a gift pointing to what you need to heal.Why real transformation starts with getting to know yourself first, and how Lizzie's six week Undiet You program is built to help you do exactly that before the holidays.We talk about:00:00 Why healing your emotions matters for weight loss02:11 Why loving yourself matters more than losing weight02:29 The six week Undiet You program and VIP option03:20 Growing up Amish and learning to suppress her voice04:27 Why all of your emotions actually matter05:03 What your mindset has to do with your health07:10 A client's breakthrough after resisting emotional work09:00 Where anger, fear, and grief get trapped in the body09:11 How a client's recurring back injury traced to buried emotion10:32 Why boundaries and resentment are blocking your weight loss11:00 How forgiveness played a role in a cancer diagnosis clearing16:31 Why you cannot blame other people for your setbacksReady to stop guessing and start healing at the root?

    156: Habit Stacking for Weight Loss That Actually Sticks | Lizzie Ens
    2026/09/01

    Habit stacking is the simple, sustainable strategy that makes lasting weight loss possible without another restrictive diet. If you have started and quit more nutrition programs than you can count, habit stacking is the reason some women finally keep results while everyone else yo-yos back to square one.

    In this episode, Lizzie breaks down why small, stacked habits like a daily walk, tracking your food, and hitting a protein goal beat any all-or-nothing plan, and why most people quit around week three simply because the process gets boring, not because it stopped working.

    Lizzie Ens, functional nutrition coach, business owner, author, and speaker, walks you through the exact framework she teaches inside her six week Undiet You program, the same one built on the habit stacking method from James Clear's Atomic Habits. You will hear a real client story of a 12 pound loss in one month with zero restriction, understand why anxiety often traces back to a lack of daily structure, and learn how to sequence your own habits so this becomes the last time you start over. If you are ready to stop dieting and start building habits that stick, this is where you begin.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why habit stacking, not another restrictive diet, is the key to sustainable weight loss, and how small stacked habits create results that actually last through the holidays and beyond.
    • What the six week Undiet You program looks like from the inside, including a real client result of a 12 pound loss in one month without dieting.
    • How to structure your first two weeks using only a daily walk and food tracking before you ever touch calories or macros.
    • Why anxiety often comes from a lack of structure in your daily habits, not from what you are eating.
    • How habit stacking works alongside your protein and calorie goals to build a sustainable sub-stack toward your bigger health goal.
    • Why the mundane, boring middle of building a habit is exactly where the most successful people separate themselves from everyone else.
    • Why waiting until January to start over keeps you stuck, and how starting before the holidays changes everything.

    We talk about:

    00:00 What habit stacking is and why it works

    01:00 Inside the six week Undiet You program

    03:19 VIP versus basic program options explained

    08:11 The Atomic Habits method behind habit stacking

    09:06 Week one, just walk and track your food

    10:18 Week two, setting your calories and protein goals

    12:03 Why everyone gets bored around week three

    14:53 How lack of structure creates anxiety

    16:12 Why structure matters for health and business

    18:37 Why investing in yourself changes everything

    22:18 Are people taking advantage of you

    154: You Don't Need to Be Rich to Be Healthy: Free Habits | Lizzie Ens
    2026/08/18

    How to get healthy without money is the real question behind the excuse you keep telling yourself. Functional nutrition coach Lizzie Ens is done letting "I'll get healthy when I'm rich" slide as an excuse. If you have ever put off eating better or moving your body because you think you cannot afford it, this episode is the wake up call you need. Lizzie breaks down why your health, not your bank account, is your actual wealth, and why waiting for more money is quietly costing you your life.

    Lizzie Ens, functional nutrition coach, business owner, author, and speaker, walks you through the free and nearly free habits that move the needle fastest: a 10 to 15 minute walk after meals to improve insulin resistance, drinking more filtered water instead of bottled, prioritizing 8 hours of sleep, and cooking at home instead of ordering out. She also unpacks a client's real DM about the money excuse, and introduces her new resource, The Undiet You Beginner's Guide: Weight Loss Without the Drama, built for anyone ready to start healing from the inside out without a big financial commitment. This episode will change how you think about what wealth actually means.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why the belief that you will get healthy once you are rich is keeping you stuck, and how to break it before it costs you your health.
    • How a 10 to 15 minute walk after meals can improve insulin resistance, according to Lizzie, sometimes more effectively than medication alone.
    • Why bottled water may be raising your xenoestrogen exposure, and how a simple countertop filter pays for itself within a month.
    • Why prioritizing 8 hours of sleep is one of the most powerful, cost free tools you have for weight loss and hormone balance.
    • Why home cooked meals are cheaper and more nutritious than fast food or delivery, even when you are on a tight grocery budget.
    • How to spot the hidden spending, like lashes or nails, that is quietly draining the money you say you do not have for your health.
    • Why what you tell yourself about your body and your health becomes your reality, and how to change the story starting today.

    We talk about:

    00:00 The excuse that is keeping you from getting healthy

    00:27 Why "I'll get healthy when I'm rich" is a lie you tell yourself

    01:51 Why your health matters more than a million dollars

    09:39 What a client's DM reveals about the money excuse

  • 152: Why You're Still Exhausted: The Evening Routine Fix | Lizzie Ens

    152: Why You're Still Exhausted: The Evening Routine Fix | Lizzie Ens
    2026/08/04

    An evening routine for better sleep starts hours before your head hits the pillow, not at bedtime itself. If you call yourself a night owl, functional nutrition coach Lizzie Ens says your circadian rhythm has just been trained wrong, not broken. You guys, this is the difference between waking up foggy and waking up ready to go, and it affects way more than how tired you feel.

    Lizzie Ens, functional nutrition coach, business owner, author, and speaker, walks you through exactly why sleep hygiene, cortisol timing, and your circadian rhythm decide how well you sleep and how productive you are the next day. She breaks down why doing anything productive within an hour of bedtime spikes cortisol, wires your brain, and blocks melatonin from doing its job. She explains why your last meal needs a three hour buffer before sleep so your body can focus on healing instead of digesting, and why a short walk after meals does more for insulin resistance than most medications.

    Lizzie also shares her own nightly wind down routine and the free Fix Your Zs sleep guide on undietyou.com. If you want your body to heal, your evening routine is where it starts.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why calling yourself a night owl usually means your circadian rhythm has been trained wrong, not that you were built that way
    • How your brain shifts from calm beta waves into productive alpha waves the moment you check your phone or start working in the morning
    • Why doing anything productive within an hour of bedtime spikes cortisol and makes it harder to fall asleep, even with melatonin and magnesium
    • Why eating within three hours of bedtime forces your body to digest instead of heal and detox while you sleep
    • How a 10 minute walk after meals supports insulin resistance more effectively than some medications
    • What a real wind down routine looks like, from sauna and red light therapy to blue light blocking glasses
    • Why treating sleep as flexible instead of a fixed priority is quietly wrecking your next day energy and focus

    We talk about:

    00:00 Why your evening routine matters more than you think

    00:31 How your circadian rhythm decides your bedtime

    02:41 Setting a consistent bedtime window for better sleep

    03:14 Why your brain needs beta time before alpha time

    04:27 How screen time triggers cortisol and adrenal fatigue

    05:20 Why productive tasks before bed backfire on your sleep

    08:00 What happens when you work right up until bedtime

    09:00 Where to grab the free Fix Your Zs sleep guide

    10:46 Why nutrition and hydration quietly affect your sleep

    12:33 Why eating before bed blocks your body from healing

    13:43 How walking after meals helps insulin resistance

    15:48 Lizzie's own nightly wind down routine
