• EP 208 \ What I Look For When Reviewing a Woman’s Health History
    2026/10/20

    Maybe you’ve been tired for months. Your periods have changed, you’re gaining weight even though you haven’t changed how you eat, and you’re not sleeping well. You’ve seen your provider, tried a few supplements, and you’re still not getting anywhere.

    In this episode I take you behind the scenes of how I think when a woman comes to me with a complicated health history. I walk through the six things I look at: the timeline, patterns across body systems, what’s already been checked, which way things are trending, what matters most to her, and what we know versus what we still need to find out.

    I also share why I’m adding a Functional Health Case Review to my Menu of Services, for women who don’t need six months of coaching but do want an experienced set of eyes on the bigger picture.

  • EP 207 \ How to Start Again When You’ve Lost Your Momentum
    2026/10/13

    Have you ever been doing really well with your health goals, only to have life interrupt your routine? Maybe you were exercising consistently, eating well, getting enough sleep, or finally making time for the things that matter most. Then something happened, you lost your momentum, and getting started again felt harder than you expected.

    I know the feeling!

    After recording a new episode of If Mama Ain't Healthy (Ain't Nobody Healthy) every week since January 2023, I intentionally stepped away for a break. What was supposed to be about six weeks turned into two months, and one of the things I was afraid would happen actually happened: I lost my motivation to come back!

    But that experience reminded me of something important about health, habits, and faithful stewardship.

    You don't have to feel motivated before you begin again.

    In this episode, we're talking about:

    Why motivation isn't always what gets us moving again

    How to restart healthy habits without guilt, punishment, or extreme measures

    Why beginning again doesn't necessarily mean returning to what you were doing before

    The importance of identifying your next faithful step instead of trying to change everything at once

    Some exciting changes I'm making to better serve women who want to take ownership of their health

    I'm also sharing updates about my new Second Chance 30-day workbook and the Menu of Services I'm developing to make it easier for women to understand the different ways they can work with me.

    Whether you're struggling to regain momentum with your health, your daily routines, or another area of your life, I hope this conversation encourages you to stop waiting until you feel ready and start taking the next faithful step.

    READY TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP WITH YOUR HEALTH?

    If you've visited my website before and weren't sure exactly how I could help you, I encourage you to visit again! I'm working on a new Menu of Services designed to help women find the right level of individualized support for their needs.

    Until that menu is available, you're welcome to reach out to me by email or send me a DM on Instagram to learn more about working together.

    To your health and wholeness,

  • EP 206 \ Practicing What I Preach: Why I'm Taking a Month Off (And Why I Think More Women Should)
    2026/07/28
    For the first time since January 2023, I'm pressing pause on the podcast for the month of August. When I looked at my calendar and saw the travel, family commitments, work responsibilities, and everything else packed into the month, I realized I had a choice. I could squeeze one more thing into an already full schedule... Or I could practice the very message I've spent years sharing with other women. In this episode, I'm talking about why I chose margin instead of overload, why I believe stewardship sometimes requires saying "no," and why I hope you'll give yourself permission to evaluate your own commitments with the same honesty. This isn't about doing less. It's about doing what God has called you to do in this season and letting that be enough. Thank you for listening, sharing, and encouraging me every week. I'm grateful for this community, and I can't wait to be back with you in September.

  • EP 204 \ The Supplement Trap: Why More Pills Aren't Making Women Healthier
    2026/07/14
    Supplements have become the go-to answer for almost every symptom, but what if we've been asking the wrong question? In this episode, Lori explains why supplements should support a healthy foundation rather than replace one.

  • EP 203 \ Why Hormones Aren't The Whole Story in Perimenopause
    2026/07/07
    Is perimenopause really just a hormone problem? Or is it revealing something much deeper? In this episode, we're taking a different approach to one of the biggest conversations in women's health today. Rather than debating hormone replacement therapy, we're asking why so many women experience such significant symptoms in the first place. We'll talk about God's design for this season of life, the foundations of health that no prescription can replace, and why supporting the whole body matters regardless of whether you choose hormone therapy. If you're approaching perimenopause—or already in it—this conversation may completely change the way you think about your health.

  • EP 201 \ Why Your Doctor Says Your Labs Are Normal When You Feel Terrible
    2026/06/23
    Have you ever been told your labs were "normal," even though you knew you didn't feel normal? You're not imagining things. In this episode, we're discussing one of the biggest frustrations I hear from women: being told everything looks fine while continuing to struggle with fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, hormone issues, and other symptoms. We'll talk about the difference between normal and optimal lab values, why annual blood work often misses early signs of dysfunction, and how looking at patterns instead of isolated numbers can provide a much clearer picture of what's happening inside the body. If you've ever felt dismissed because your labs were "normal," this episode is for you.
