51. The Metabolism & Hormone Reset Plan for Women 35+ with Dr. Mariza Snyder

“Everything looks normal”… but you still feel exhausted, anxious, inflamed, and out of sync with your body. Sound familiar? The truth is, most women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s aren’t getting real answers when they start experiencing the hormonal shifts of perimenopause and menopause. Instead, they’re told their symptoms are “just stress” or handed a prescription that masks the issue—without addressing the root cause. In this episode of Rooted in Wellness, I’m joined by women’s hormone expert Dr. Mariza Snyder for a science-backed conversation about what’s really going on beneath the surface. We break down the connection between hormone decline, nervous system dysregulation, brain health, metabolic shifts, and chronic inflammation—plus why so many of the conventional protocols (like extreme fasting, overtraining, or testosterone pellets) can make things worse, not better. Dr. Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, women’s hormone expert, and bestselling author of The Essential Oils Hormone Solution and The Menopause Relief Protocol. She’s the host of the Energized with Dr. Mariza podcast.If you’ve been doing all the “right” things and still feel like your body is stuck in survival mode, this episode is for you!
