S6 Ep. 20: The Gut-Hormone Superfood You’re Missing: Colostrum with Erica Diepersloot

What if one of the most powerful tools for gut healing, immune resilience, and hormone balance has been hiding in plain sight? In this episode of The Hormone Genius Podcast, we’re joined by Erica Diepersloot, co-founder of WonderCow Colostrum, to dive deep into the science and real-world benefits of bovine colostrum — a functional food that’s quickly gaining attention in the gut-health and hormone space. Colostrum is the nutrient-dense “first milk” produced after birth, rich in immunoglobulins, growth factors, lactoferrin, and bioactive compounds that support intestinal repair and immune regulation. Erica breaks down why this ancestral superfood is having a modern comeback — and how it can be especially impactful for women dealing with gut dysfunction, chronic inflammation, and hormone imbalances. In this conversation, we explore: How gut health directly influences hormones, including cortisol, estrogen metabolism, and immune-driven inflammation The role of colostrum in supporting the gut lining, microbiome balance, and immune cell signaling Emerging research showing colostrum’s effects on immune response, including studies examining how bovine colostrum influences immune cells when exposed to bacterial stressors Why colostrum may be beneficial for conditions like SIBO, infectious diarrhea, and gut permeability, based on in-vitro and clinical research How colostrum works differently than probiotics, and why it may help create a healthier environment for beneficial bacteria to thrive Erica also shares insights from published research highlighted through PubMed/NIH and peer-reviewed journals, including studies on colostrum’s interaction with the microbiome and its protective effects against bacterial-induced intestinal damage. Whether you’re navigating hormone imbalance, stubborn gut symptoms, or simply looking to strengthen your immune foundation, this episode offers a grounded, science-forward look at why colostrum is becoming a staple in functional health. 🎧 Tune in to learn how healing the gut may be one of the most overlooked keys to hormone balance — and why colostrum could be the missing piece.

The postpartum period is one of the most dramatic hormonal transitions in a woman’s life, yet it is rarely explained in a clear or compassionate way. In this episode, Teresa and Jamie walk through what is actually happening inside the body and brain after birth, why so many women say they don’t “feel like themselves,” and how much of this experience is rooted in biology , not personal weakness or failure. They begin by unpacking the role of prolactin, the hormone responsible for breast milk production. While prolactin supports bonding and nurturing behaviors, it also suppresses ovulation and lowers dopamine, the brain’s motivation and reward chemical. This helps explain why many postpartum women feel more emotionally flat, less driven, or disconnected from activities they once enjoyed, even while deeply loving their baby. Next, they discuss the massive drop in estrogen and progesterone that occurs within the first 24–48 hours after delivery. During pregnancy, these hormones are higher than at any other time in a woman’s life. Their sudden withdrawal can contribute to mood swings, anxiety, tearfulness, sleep disruption, and the baby blues, and in some women may play a role in postpartum depression or anxiety. Progesterone’s calming effect on the nervous system and estrogen’s support of serotonin help explain why this shift can feel so emotionally intense. The conversation then turns to dopamine and how its suppression during breastfeeding affects motivation, pleasure, focus, and emotional resilience. Teresa and Jamie emphasize that it is possible to feel grateful, bonded, and deeply loving toward your baby while also struggling internally , and that these experiences can exist at the same time. They also explore why postpartum is uniquely demanding when you combine hormonal changes with sleep deprivation, physical healing, and identity shifts. Together, these factors create one of the most neurologically and hormonally vulnerable seasons of a woman’s life. The episode then transitions into the topic of fertility after birth. Many women are told that breastfeeding prevents pregnancy, but ovulation always occurs before the first postpartum period, meaning pregnancy is possible before cycles return. Prolactin levels vary widely depending on nursing frequency, nighttime feeds, pumping, stress, and individual biology, making fertility unpredictable during this time. Finally, Teresa and Jamie discuss how natural family planning and fertility awareness methods can be used postpartum, but require special education and realistic expectations. Cervical mucus patterns can be irregular, estrogen may rise multiple times before true ovulation, and the body may have several “practice runs” before releasing an egg. With proper instruction and postpartum‑specific guidance, natural methods can be used effectively to avoid pregnancy while respecting the body’s recovery process.

Stephanie Weinert is a Catholic wife, mother of four, convert to the Catholic faith, and founder of Mother & Home Ministries (motherandhome.co), a motherhood collective created to refresh the hearts and minds of women navigating the sacred, demanding, and beautiful vocation of motherhood. But her path to this work was forged through profound suffering, loss, and ultimately, redemption. Before motherhood reshaped her life, Stephanie considered herself deeply health-conscious and wellness-minded. She valued nutrition, movement, and intentional living. Yet nothing could have prepared her for the moment in 2019 when her son Beckett’s birth made her a special-needs mother overnight. The complexity of his medical needs, the emotional weight of caregiving, and the daily fight to keep him safe transformed her understanding of motherhood, dependence, and faith. Eighteen months later, Beckett died. His death shattered Stephanie’s world. In the aftermath of trauma and grief, her own health began to unravel. Hormonal dysfunction, exhaustion, anxiety, and physical decline pushed her into what she describes as “a pit I didn’t think I would ever climb out of.” The woman who once felt vibrant and capable now struggled to recognize herself. But this was not the end of her story. Stephanie began searching for answers — first medically, then holistically, and eventually spiritually. What she discovered was that true healing could not exist in only one dimension. It wasn’t just about labs. It wasn’t just about supplements. It wasn’t just about diet or sleep. Healing required addressing the whole person: the physical body and hormonal systems, the nervous system and trauma stored within it, the emotional wounds of grief and identity loss, the psychological toll of caregiving and chronic stress, and ultimately, the spiritual surrender of a heart learning again how to trust. “For in Him we live and move and have our being.” (Acts 17:28) Stephanie speaks candidly about the reality that healing is rarely linear. There were setbacks. Plateaus. Relapses. Moments of despair. And then small breakthroughs that slowly compounded into stability, clarity, and renewed strength. Through hormone balancing, root-cause medicine, nervous system regulation, faith, prayer, and intentional living, she began to rebuild not only her health — but her sense of purpose.

In this episode of The Hormone Genius, we are joined by expert OB/GYN Kristina Pakiz, founder of Vivify Women’s Health and Fertility, for an honest, evidence-based conversation about fertility testing, specifically AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone), and what it does and does not tell women about their ability to conceive naturally. Dr. Pakiz brings years of clinical experience caring for women across the reproductive lifespan, with a special focus on restorative, patient-centered fertility care. Her approach emphasizes education, individualized evaluation, and empowering women with accurate information rather than fear-based lab interpretations. What Is AMH? AMH is a hormone produced by the granulosa cells of small, developing follicles in the ovaries. Clinically, it is often described as a marker of ovarian reserve, meaning it gives an estimate of how many recruitable follicles remain—not how well those eggs function, and not whether a woman can conceive naturally. Because AMH levels tend to decline with age, they are frequently used in fertility clinics to help predict response to ovarian stimulation in assisted reproductive technologies like IVF. Why AMH Is Not a Good Marker of Natural Fertility One of the most important takeaways from this episode is that AMH is often misunderstood and over-applied, especially in younger women. Dr. Pakiz explains that: AMH does not predict whether a woman can get pregnant naturally Women with low AMH can and do conceive spontaneously Women with high AMH may still struggle with ovulation, cycle irregularity, or other fertility barriers AMH does not assess egg quality, ovulation timing, uterine health, cervical mucus, or hormonal balance In other words, AMH reflects quantity, not function, and fertility depends on far more than follicle count. The Harm of Over-Interpreting AMH Dr. Pakiz also addresses the emotional and clinical harm that can occur when AMH is presented as a “fertility score.” Many women are told they are “running out of time” or that pregnancy is unlikely based on AMH alone, messages that are often inaccurate and unnecessarily distressing. Dr. Pakiz describes the alternative of NaproTechnology/Restorative Reproductive Medicine. Exciting NEWS!!!

In this episode, we break down what the research actually says, who benefits most, and how to use them strategically, starting with the most studied supplement of all. In this episode of The Hormone Genius Podcast, Jamie and Teresa take a clear, evidence-based look at three of today’s most talked-about supplements, creatine, collagen peptides, and colostrum, ranking them by scientific support rather than marketing hype. If you’ve ever wondered which supplements are truly worth your time, money, and trust, this conversation is for you. The episode begins with creatine, the most extensively researched supplement discussed. Often mislabeled as “just for athletes,” creatine plays a critical role in cellular energy production and has compelling evidence supporting benefits for muscle strength, metabolic health, cognitive function, and healthy aging, including important implications for women and midlife hormone transitions. Jamie and Teresa then break down collagen peptides, a staple in many wellness routines but one that’s frequently misunderstood. They discuss how collagen supports joints, connective tissue, skin integrity, and gut health, why it is not a complete protein, and how to use it strategically alongside other nutrients for meaningful results. Finally, the conversation turns to colostrum, an emerging supplement gaining attention for its potential role in gut barrier function, immune resilience, and inflammation modulation. While the research base is newer compared to creatine and collagen, Jamie and Teresa review what the science currently supports, who may benefit most, and important considerations when choosing a high-quality product. This episode empowers listeners with practical, science-backed insights, helping you move beyond supplement trends and toward choices that truly support hormone balance, longevity, and whole-body health.

In this episode of The Hormone Genius Podcast, Teresa & Jamie break down everything moms need to know about guiding their daughters through puberty, hormone changes, and the first menstrual period. With clarity, compassion, and decades of clinical experience, Teresa and Jamie explain what’s normal, what to expect, and how to support tween girls in a world where confusing (and sometimes unhealthy) messages about womanhood are everywhere. ✨ Preparing Your Daughter for Her First Period One of the most meaningful parts of understanding our own cycles is being able to pass that wisdom on to the next generation. Jamie shares that if she could go back, she would have given her younger self reassurance—not embarrassment. For moms, this is an opportunity to set the tone differently. Teaching your daughter about her period before it happens helps her feel confident rather than caught off-guard. Start by normalizing conversations about the female body, using correct terms, and explaining that cervical mucus, mood changes, and breast tenderness can be early signals that her first period is coming. Consider putting together a small “first period kit” with pads, wipes, a change of underwear, and an encouraging note she can keep in her backpack. Most importantly, lead with positivity: remind her that her period is not something to hide, it’s a sign of health, maturity, and the amazing way her body works. This episode empowers moms to: Understand the biological process of puberty Recognize the early signs that a first period is coming Support healthy physical, emotional, and hormone development Offer better language, resources, and confidence-building tools Create an open, connected relationship around reproductive health General Cycle Education & First-Period Prep Guiding Star Project – Cycle Show https://guidingstarproject.com/cycle-show/ Natural Womanhood – Period Genius https://naturalwomanhood.org/period-genius/ (Course access: https://naturalwomanhood.courses) Pearl & Thistle – Cycle Prep https://pearlandthistle.com/cycle-prep/ MyCatholicDoctor – Sex & Cycle Education Resources https://mycatholicdoctor.com/our-services/catholic-sex-education-resources/ “Know Your Body” presentation is described as being “brought to an age-appropriate level for adolescents” and is intended for teenage girls to watch (preferably with a parent or guardian).

In this episode, Jamie sits down with Teresa for an honest and hope-filled Q&A all about hysterectomy—what it is, why it’s often recommended, and the whole-body impact women deserve to understand before ever stepping into the operating room. Together, they walk through the most common questions women ask: what a hysterectomy actually involves, how removing the uterus alone differs from removing both the uterus and ovaries, and how a woman can discern whether surgery is truly necessary or if root-cause, restorative options might be explored first. Jamie also opens up about her own recent experience with extremely heavy bleeding and iron deficiency, reflecting on what she learned, how it clarified the importance of proper evaluation, and why women should never ignore symptoms that disrupt daily life or drain their energy. Her story becomes a powerful example of how understanding your cycle can guide clearer decisions and more restorative care. -- The Fiat Institute is now enrolling for the next Hormone Coach Certification Cohort—a powerful program training women to understand the menstrual cycle, support hormone health naturally, and serve their communities as certified hormone coaches.
