Hormone Imbalance, Gut Health, and Fasting for Women Over 40 | Dr. Tabatha Barber

from Cortisol Coach · host Christine Marie

In this episode of the Cortisol Coach Podcast, Christine Marie sits down with Dr. Tabatha Barber — triple board certified in obstetrics and gynecology, menopause, and functional medicine, and founder of Fast to Faith — for one of the most powerful and prophetic conversations this show has ever had. Dr. Tabatha's story is extraordinary. She built a medical career to prove everyone wrong — driving herself into Hashimoto's, depression, IBS, weight gain, and a back injury that two surgeons said required spinal fusion. And it was not until God stopped her cold and said — you left me in the delivery room and never brought me on the journey — that everything changed. Today she helps women heal their hormones, gut, and metabolism by addressing root causes — not just symptoms — through her signature Fast to Faith framework that integrates fasting, neuroscience, and biblical truth. This episode is not just about hormones. It is about what happens when you stop trying to carry your health journey alone and finally invite Jesus in. Because your body is not broken. Your approach is. In this episode you will hear: Dr. Tabatha's raw and remarkable story — from teenage mother and high school dropout to triple board certified physician Why she left conventional medicine and what functional medicine does differently The gut and hormone connection that is the missing link for most women What fasting does specifically for women in perimenopause and menopause How Romans 12:2 is the original neuroplasticity protocol Why Scripture and science have been saying the same thing all along The Fast to Faith 40 day program and what it does for women's health What to say to Jesus when you do not even know where to start Join Dr. Tabatha's FREE Masterclass — From Stuck to Free: 👉 https://masterclass.fasttofaith.com/fromstucktofree FREE Guide to Intermittent Fasting the Faithful Way: 👉 https://fasttofaith.com/intermittent-fasting-guide/ FREE Balancing Your Hormones Naturally Guide: 👉 https://drtabatha.com/free-hormone-guide/ Connect with Dr. Tabatha Barber: Website: https://fasttofaith.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gutsydrtabatha Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrTabatha YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@fasttofaith Connect with Christine: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cortisol_coach If this episode blessed you: Leave a review on Apple Podcasts — it takes 60 seconds and helps other women find this show Follow the Cortisol Coach Podcast so you never miss an episode Share this episode with one woman in your life who has been white knuckling her health journey alone SEO Keywords & Tags: faith based functional medicine, healing hormones naturally, gut health and hormones, Fast to Faith, Dr Tabatha Barber, fasting and hormones women, perimenopause functional medicine, menopause root cause healing, Hashimoto's natural healing, hormone imbalance women over 40, biblical health, Christian wellness, faith and medicine, cortisol and gut health, metabolic health women, fasting for women over 40, Jesus and healing, functional medicine OBGYN, cortisol coach podcast, Christine Marie podcast, Fast to Faith 40 day program, intermittent fasting women hormones, renewing your mind Romans 12:2
