Shannon welcomes Michele Scarlet, functional nutritionist and women’s health expert, for a deep-dive on what really keeps women stuck with weight, low energy, and hormonal chaos.Michele shares her personal journey: from gym owner and “doing everything right” to burnout, breast implant illness, and the realization that true health runs much deeper than diet and exercise.They break down the truth about metabolism, why the number on the scale isn’t the best indicator of progress, and why symptoms like poor sleep, fatigue, and gut issues are just as important as weight.In this episode:Discover the science and real-life impact of chronic stress, trauma, and nervous system dysregulation—and why simply “doing more” doesn’t work for high-achieving women.Learn why self-love, nervous system healing, and mindset rewiring are essential for sustainable results—and how to start shifting your own story, even if you feel stuck.Practical advice for women in midlife: how to finally see progress, reframe setbacks, and build true resilience in body and mind.Connect with Michele Scarlet:Website: michelescarlet.comInstagram: @michelescarlet_Share this episode with a friend who needs real answers, not just another diet!Follow Shannon for more on holistic women’s health and healing.----------------------Find out more about The Wellness Paradigm: www.thewellnessparadigm.com---------------------- Book a FREE Discovery Call: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/bookings/twp-discovery---------------------- Take the FREE Metabolic Health & Hormone Quiz: https://www.thewellnessparadigm.com/metabolic-health-hormone-harmony-quiz---------------------- Subscribe to our newsletter for weekly wellness tips: www.thewellnessparadigm.com/newsletter---------------------- Follow us on Instagram: @Shannon.Salge---------------------- Join our Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1298733640503815---------------------- Check out our YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/@thewellnessparadigm----------------------Enjoyed the podcast?
