My Honest Convo with The Peachie Spoon on HRT, Protein Goals, Weight Obsession, & Her Life Behind the Scenes

My friend Meredith Mann, better known as The Peachie Spoon, is back on The SavvyCast for the fourth time, and we talk about it all! Since her last visit, her supplement business has taken off, and this time she gets real about her journey with HRT in perimenopause, from her first symptoms at 43 to the testosterone treatment she eventually stopped. It's also a personal life update as her teens get closer to leaving the nest. Plus, she walks through her current strength training routine. And of course, she shares her favorite high protein recipes for fall, along with the wellness without obsession philosophy that guides how she eats, moves, and thinks about the number on the scale. If you are pursuing a more balanced relationship with wellness, eating habits, and workout routines, and just need a little more grace in how you talk to your body, this conversation is for you. Meredith has a way of making it all feel tangible and obtainable!   WHAT TO EXPECT IN THIS EPISODE: Meredith's honest journey with HRT in perimenopause, from her first symptoms at 43 to why she quit a testosterone cream after only three weeks How Peachie Spoon has grown since her last visit, from her first cookbook to a full supplement line with protein, collagen, and creatine Her advice for pregnant and postpartum women who cannot stomach protein but still need to fuel their bodies The story behind her most-requested high protein recipes, from her Balanced Baked Spaghetti to her Ninja Creami treats What a typical strength training week looks like for Meredith, plus the kettlebell move she cannot stop doing Why she is choosing wellness without obsession over chasing a number on the scale   LINKS & RESOURCES Follow Meredith Mann on Instagram: @thepeachiespoon Follow her business on Instagram: @thepeachiespoon.nutrition Shop the Peachie Spoon Protein Powders, Creatine, & Collagen (Code: FAMILYSAVVY for a special discount!)
