OVERVIEW: If you’ve ever told yourself, “I just need more willpower,” this episode is going to shift your perspective in the best way. Because the truth is… willpower is not the reason you feel stuck. In this episode, I’m breaking down what is actually going on when it comes to your habits, your relationship with alcohol, and why midlife fat loss feels so much harder than it used to. We are not talking about extremes. This is not about cutting everything out or being perfect. This is about helping you build awareness, make better choices, and create a lifestyle that actually supports your goals long term. Key Takeaways:  Why willpower alone is not enough to change your habits What is really driving your desire to drink and how to shift your relationship with alcohol How alcohol impacts your metabolism, fat loss, and overall health, especially in your 30s and 40s The connection between stress, emotions, and your daily choices Why midlife women need a different approach to fat loss and metabolic health How to create sustainable habits without relying on all-or-nothing thinking RESOURCES: Check out Sherry's Website here:  www.epicyou.com Follow her on IG here: @drsherryprice Click here to schedule your FREE alignment call to see if my 1:1 coaching program is a good fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/7de98067/appointment/18062930/calendar/4677043?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=18062930 Email us at: [email protected] Click Here to learn more about my 1:1 coaching program https://metabolicfix.com/one Take My PHASE ASSESSMENT QUIZ HERE: https://www.metabolicfix.com/phase-quiz Follow Ashley on Instagram: @ashley_fillmore1 Want to see which one of my programs is the best for you?

OVERVIEW: GLP 1s are everywhere right now, especially for women in their late 30s, 40s, and beyond. While these medications can be a helpful tool, they are not the strategy. In this episode, I am breaking down what I am seeing behind the scenes with my clients and why so many women. Eating less without a plan is how you lose muscle, not just fat, so having a strategy is KEY. When you lose muscle,  your metabolism slows down, your energy drops, and maintaining your results becomes that much harder. If you are currently using GLP 1s or considering them, this episode will help you understand exactly what you need to focus on to protect your metabolism and get results you can actually keep. We are talking about the non-negotiables that most women are missing, including protein, calories, and strength training. This is not about doing more. It is about doing the right things in the right order for your body. What We Cover in This Episode: Why eating less without a plan can lead to muscle loss and a slower metabolism The role muscle plays in fat loss, metabolism, and long-term health How much protein you should be aiming for and how to make it realistic Why calories still matter even if your appetite is lower The importance of strength training and progressive overload Why one-size-fits-all approaches do not work, especially after 35 How to shift your focus from quick weight loss to sustainable results RESOURCES: Click here to schedule your FREE alignment call to see if my 90-Day Coaching program is a good fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/7de98067/appointment/18062930/calendar/4677043?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=18062930 Join my RISE program here: https://www.metabolicfix.com/rise Follow Ashley on Instagram: @ashley_fillmore1 Want to see which one of my programs is the best for you?

OVERVIEW: In the latest episode of 'Cheers to Your Success',  Ashley has a conversation with functional health practitioner Sophie Shepherd. Together, they delve into the complexities of thyroid health, specifically focusing on Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism, conditions that affect countless women yet often go undiagnosed. This blog post will summarize their discussion, providing valuable insights and practical advice for women experiencing mystery symptoms. Key Takeaways:  Understanding Hashimoto's and Hypothyroidism:  This autoimmune condition arises when the immune system mistakenly attacks the thyroid gland, leading to inflammation and diminished hormone production. Women are disproportionately affected, making awareness and early diagnosis crucial. Hashimoto's can manifest through various symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, and digestive issues, which can be easily overlooked or misattributed to stress or aging. Recognizing Symptoms: When to Seek Help- Sophie emphasizes the importance of recognizing abnormal fatigue. Unlike regular tiredness from a busy lifestyle, the fatigue experienced by those with thyroid issues feels overwhelming, akin to carrying a heavy weight. Symptoms such as sluggish digestion, cold intolerance, irregular menstrual cycles, and significant weight fluctuations are telltale signs that warrant further investigation. Women are encouraged to advocate for their health, seeking second opinions if they feel dismissed by their healthcare providers. The Impact of Thyroid Health on Overall Well-being: Sophie highlights that the thyroid is a master metabolism hormone, influencing various bodily functions, including energy production, digestion, and mood regulation. Understanding this connection can help women address their symptoms more holistically rather than simply treating them in isolation. For instance, weight gain might prompt a focus on diet, when the underlying issue could be thyroid dysfunction.   RESOURCES: Check out Sophie's podcast here:  SHE Talks Health Podcast https://shetalkshealth.com/podcast-episodes/ Connect with her on Instagram: @shetalkshealthClick here to schedule your FREE alignment call to see if my 1:1 coaching program is a good fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/7de98067/appointment/18062930/calendar/4677043?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=18062930 Email us at: [email protected] Click Here to learn more about my 1:1 coaching program https://metabolicfix.com/one Take My PHASE ASSESSMENT QUIZ HERE: https://www.metabolicfix.com/phase-quiz Follow Ashley on Instagram: @ashley_fillmore1 Want to see which one of my programs is the best for you?

OVERVIEW: In this episode, Ashley and Gabe Cox discuss the intricacies of goal planning, balancing personal and professional life, and the importance of defining one's 'why' in the pursuit of success. Gabe shares her three-part system for achieving goals: See it, Plan it, and Do it, emphasizing the need for flexibility and self-care throughout the process. The conversation highlights the challenges faced by high-achieving women and the necessity of setting boundaries to maintain mental health and well-being while striving for personal and professional goals. Takeaways It's essential to define your 'why' to stay committed to your goals. Balance looks different for everyone; it's about finding peace in your priorities. Action builds confidence; you can't gain confidence without taking steps. Planning is crucial, but be prepared for flexibility in your approach. Embrace discomfort as a sign of growth and progress. Set boundaries to protect your time and energy. Recognize that change is hard, but it's a necessary part of growth. Focus on one to three main goals to avoid overwhelm. Celebrate small victories to maintain motivation. Self-care is not a luxury; it's a necessity for sustainable success.

OVERVIEW: If you’ve ever thought, “I just need my macros adjusted,” this episode is for you. So many women—especially over 35—believe the missing piece to their results is a new macro plan. But here’s the hard truth: if macros were the solution, and you’ve already been tracking for years, you wouldn’t still feel stuck. In today’s episode, Ashley breaks down why another macro plan isn’t the answer—and what actually does move the needle for sustainable fat loss, strength, and confidence in midlife. You’ll learn why tracking calories and macros can stop working, how years of dieting and stress impact your metabolism, and why customization—not more discipline—is the key to long-term results. Ashley also shares the philosophy behind Metabolic Fix, her Three Phases of Transformation, and why lasting change requires more than a spreadsheet of numbers. What We Cover in This Episode: Why most women think they need another macro plan—and where that belief comes from The real reason macros stop working after 35 Why knowing how to track doesn’t mean your body can respond to tracking The difference between following numbers and following a strategy How stress, recovery, hormones, and training style impact fat loss The Repair, Rebuild, Results framework—and how to know which phase you’re in Why sustainable results require time, feedback, and customization What makes a 90-day approach different from quick fixes and resets RESOURCES: If you liked this episode, check out episode 55: https://www.metabolicfix.com/podcasts/cheers-to-your-success/episodes/2147797525 Check out episode 46: The Three Phases of Transformation: https://www.metabolicfix.com/podcasts/cheers-to-your-success/episodes/2147772671 Click here to schedule your FREE alignment call to see if my 1:1 coaching program is a good fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/7de98067/appointment/18062930/calendar/4677043?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=18062930 Email us at: [email protected] Click Here to learn more about my 1:1 coaching program https://metabolicfix.com/one Take My PHASE ASSESSMENT QUIZ HERE: https://www.metabolicfix.com/phase-quiz Follow Ashley on Instagram: @ashley_fillmore1 Want to see which one of my programs is the best for you?

OVERVIEW: In this episode, Ashley welcomes Healthy Emmie, a nutritionist and holistic health coach, to discuss sustainable weight loss, particularly for women navigating perimenopause and menopause. Emmie shares her journey from being a teacher to a health coach, emphasizing the importance of whole foods and strength training. The conversation highlights the significance of mindset, commitment, and finding a deeper 'why' for health goals. They explore the pitfalls of quick fixes and the necessity of lifestyle changes for long-term health and wellness. Takeaways Emmie's journey from teaching to health coaching was driven by her passion for wellness. Sustainable weight loss is about simplicity and understanding basic nutrition. Whole foods are essential for long-term health and weight management. Stress and rigidity around dieting can hinder weight loss efforts. Strength training is crucial for women, especially as they age. Finding a deeper 'why' is essential for lasting motivation. Quick fixes often lead to rebound weight gain and frustration. Lifestyle changes should be gradual and manageable for success. Mindset and commitment are key to achieving health goals.

OVERVIEW: If you’ve ever felt like you need to be perfect to see results—and when you can’t be, you fall completely off—this episode is for you. So many women approach their health journey with an all-or-nothing mindset: 100% effort or nothing at all. Perfect weeks or complete burnout. Strict plans followed by starting over… again. In today’s episode, Ashley breaks down why this mindset is one of the biggest reasons women stay stuck, especially after 35—and why consistency at 40% is far more powerful than 100% followed by zero. You’ll learn how chasing perfection sabotages fat loss, increases stress, and keeps you trapped in a cycle of extremes—and how shifting your mindset can finally unlock sustainable progress. What We Cover in This Episode: What the all-or-nothing mindset actually looks like in real life Why perfection feels productive—but rarely produces results How “on plan vs off plan” thinking fuels burnout and inconsistency Why showing up at 40% still counts—and compounds over time How stress, guilt, and unrealistic expectations impact progress What consistency really looks like in a busy, full life How to build momentum without waiting for the “perfect” week RESOURCES: Check out Episode 267: Become Her First: The Mindset Shift That Changes Everything: https://www.metabolicfix.com/podcasts/cheers-to-your-success/episodes/2149155164 Click here to schedule your FREE alignment call to see if my 1:1 coaching program is a good fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/7de98067/appointment/18062930/calendar/4677043?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=18062930 Email us at: [email protected] Click Here to learn more about my 1:1 coaching program https://metabolicfix.com/one Take My PHASE ASSESSMENT QUIZ HERE: https://www.metabolicfix.com/phase-quiz Follow Ashley on Instagram: @ashley_fillmore1 Want to see which one of my programs is the best for you?

OVERVIEW: In this episode, Ashley welcomes Kristin Oja, CEO and founder of Stat Wellness, to discuss the importance of longevity through functional medicine. They explore key topics such as inflammation, blood sugar regulation, and the significance of muscle mass in maintaining health as we age. Kristin emphasizes the need for a holistic approach to wellness, focusing on lifestyle changes, nutrition, and the importance of consistency over perfection in health practices. Takeaways Functional medicine focuses on root causes rather than just symptoms Chronic low-grade inflammation is a major health issue. Sleep, stress, and diet are key drivers of inflammation. Blood sugar regulation is crucial for weight loss and overall health Muscle mass is essential for metabolic health and longevity. Strength training should be prioritized to prevent muscle loss with age. Carbohydrates are important for muscle recovery and growth. Small, consistent changes can lead to significant health improvements. Avoid added sugars in food for better health outcomes. It's never too late to start strength training.

OVERVIEW: We talk a lot about nutrition.We talk about workouts.We talk about sleep, stress, hormones, and lifestyle habits. But there’s one piece of the transformation puzzle that doesn’t get nearly enough attention—and it’s often the real reason women stay stuck.  Mindset. In today’s episode, I’m diving into the identity and mindset shifts that must happen before lasting change can take place. Because the truth is, most women don’t struggle because they don’t know what to eat or how to train.

OVERVIEW: So many women come into the new year feeling frustrated, confused, and ready to “try harder” — even though they’ve already been dieting, training, and pushing for years. In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest mistakes I see women make in their 30s and 40s: staying in a calorie deficit year-round and assuming the answer is always more restriction, more cardio, or more discipline. Here’s the truth — that approach doesn’t create results. It creates dysfunction. I’m walking you through why chronic dieting keeps your body stuck, how your metabolism adapts to long-term under-fueling, and why fat loss becomes harder when your body doesn’t feel supported. Most importantly, I’m explaining the Three Phases of Transformation we use at Metabolic Fix — and why understanding which phase your body actually needs is the key to sustainable progress. In this episode, we cover: Why living in a calorie deficit long-term backfires How under-fueling impacts hormones, recovery, and metabolism Why many women need to start in the Repair Phase, not fat loss What the Rebuild Phase actually looks like and why it’s essential Why the Results Phase only works when the foundation is in place How to stop guessing and start working with your body instead of against it If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but still not seeing results, this episode will help you understand why — and what to do differently moving forward. This isn’t about being more disciplined.It’s about being in the right phase.   RESOURCES: Click here to schedule your FREE alignment call to see if my 1:1 coaching program is a good fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/7de98067/appointment/18062930/calendar/4677043?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=18062930 Email us at: [email protected] Weight Loss Calculator: https://www.metabolicfix.com/weight-loss-calculator

OVERVIEW: If you’ve been thinking you need to diet harder, cut carbs, or push through more workouts to finally see results, you’re not alone. I used to do the same thing, especially before the holidays. But the truth? Restriction and extremes only leave you more tired, bloated, and frustrated.

OVERVIEW: If you’re currently dieting, trying to lose weight, or using a GLP-1, this episode is for you. I’m opening up about my own journey — from years of crash dieting and overtraining in my 20s to finally repairing my metabolism and hormones so I could feel strong, healthy, and confident again. I’ve been there: eating as little as possible, chasing smaller numbers on the scale, and feeling terrified to stop dieting because I didn’t want to regain the weight. In this episode, I’m sharing what I’ve learned after nearly two decades of helping women heal their metabolism and achieve sustainable results. Whether you’re counting macros, eating “clean,” or taking a GLP-1, you’ll hear exactly why how you approach your fat loss journey matters just as much as what you’re doing. Here’s what we’ll cover: Why your metabolic health is the foundation of everything — fat loss, energy, hormones, and long-term results. The truth about GLP-1s and why you still need to eat enough, strength train, and support your metabolism. The signs of metabolic adaptation and what to do if you’ve been chronically under-eating. Why simply hitting your protein goal isn’t enough if your total calories are too low. How I use the Three Phases of Transformation — Repair, Rebuild, and Results — to help women feel and look their best. The connection between muscle mass and longevity, and why your goal should always be to maintain and build muscle. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “doing everything right” but still not seeing results, this episode will help you understand why — and what you can do differently to finally make progress that lasts. Your metabolism is the foundation for everything. It determines how your body uses the food you eat — whether you’re burning it efficiently or storing it. If you don’t take care of it, no diet, workout plan, or medication will give you sustainable results. I want you to know there’s a better way — one that doesn’t involve starving yourself or living in fear of food. You deserve to feel good, look strong, and sustain your results long-term.   RESOURCES: Click here to schedule your FREE alignment call to see if my 1:1 coaching program is a good fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/7de98067/appointment/18062930/calendar/4677043?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=18062930 Email us at: [email protected] Click Here to learn more about my 1:1 coaching program https://metabolicfix.com/one Take My PHASE ASSESSMENT QUIZ HERE: https://www.metabolicfix.com/phase-quiz Follow Ashley on Instagram: @ashley_fillmore1 Join Ashley's FREE Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/635528110302527 Want to see which one of my programs is the best for you?

OVERVIEW: In this episode of Cheers to Your Success, I’m diving into an important conversation that doesn’t get talked about enough: when healthy habits cross the line into unhealthy obsessions. It’s easy to start with good intentions—tracking steps, logging macros, or following nutrition and fitness tips online—but somewhere along the way, those habits can shift from supportive to consuming. Instead of feeling empowered, you may find yourself stressed, overwhelmed, or even trapped by your own routine. Here’s what we’ll cover in today’s episode: How discipline can quietly turn into an obsession without you realizing it. The signs your “healthy” routine is starting to steal your energy instead of fueling your life. Real-life examples of when tracking, logging, and implementing every tip backfires. Why balance—not perfection—is the true marker of health. How to reset your mindset so your habits support your life, not consume it. If your current approach to health feels like a never-ending to-do list, this episode will help you take a step back, breathe, and find freedom again. Because true health isn’t about control—it’s about balance.

OVERVIEW: If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “Why is this taking so long?!”—this episode is for you. Today, I’m diving into a conversation that’s been coming up again and again with my 1:1 clients: the frustration that can come with making sustainable changes and not seeing results as fast as we’ve been conditioned to expect. From social media highlight reels to quick-fix diet programs, we’ve been sold the idea that weight loss should be fast, dramatic, and easy. But when you choose a sustainable, hormone-friendly approach—where you’re not starving, overtraining, or cutting out major food groups—the journey looks very different. In this episode, I break down: Why so many women feel frustrated with their pace of progress How misinformation from the diet industry warps our expectations The three biggest mistakes I see when it comes to timelines and transformation Why true, lasting change takes longer—but is so much more worth it How to reframe your journey so you stop comparing it to the crash diets of your past If you’ve ever questioned whether your hard work is paying off—listen in. This episode is your reminder that you’re not behind, you’re not broken, and you’re doing it right.

Dr. Jannine also shares the common nutrient deficiencies she sees in women over 40 and how your specific phase of perimenopause or menopause can influence what your body actually needs nutritionally.

OVERVIEW: In this episode, I’m diving into what sustainable really means when it comes to your health, nutrition, and fitness journey. So often we hear that sustainability is the goal, but let’s be honest, that doesn’t mean it’s easy. I’m breaking down why sustainable results require effort, consistency, and a mindset shift, especially if you’re used to chasing quick fixes. I’m also talking about the importance of daily movement, how to stay in your own lane instead of falling into the comparison trap, and why redefining what “hard” means is the key to real change. If you’ve ever felt like giving up because it’s not happening fast enough—or you’re overwhelmed watching other people’s journeys—this episode is for you. Let’s reframe what success really looks like and focus on building habits that actually stick.
