In this episode, we're unpacking one of the most misunderstood wellness tools: fasting. But instead of jumping on the “fast harder” bandwagon, we’re breaking down the nuance—especially around hormones, fertility, and mitochondrial health. We’re talking leptin signaling, nervous system regulation, cold exposure, the right timing for longer fasts, and how to actually earn the right to fast. Plus, we get real about our own experiences with intermittent fasting, why it backfired, and what to look for if your body isn’t quite ready. Whether you’re prepping for pregnancy or just want to use fasting as a tool for resilience—not more stress—this one’s for you.
