#362 - HRT, Thyroid & the Real Root of Midlife Symptoms: What Every Woman Over 40 Should Know with Kate Deering, Jay Feldman, Kitty Martone & Dr Leigh Erin Connealy

If you’re over 40 and still exhausted… it might not be low estrogen.You’ve been told your hormones “just decline” after 40 — that fatigue, mood swings, and weight gain are just part of getting older. But what if that’s only half the story?So many women are prescribed HRT and still feel anxious, wired, and out of sync with their bodies. That’s because hormones don’t work in isolation — they’re part of a much bigger system involving your metabolism, thyroid, liver, and stress response. When one piece slows down, everything feels off.In this powerful roundtable, I sit down with four incredible experts leading the new conversation around women’s health over 40:👩‍⚕️ Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy — integrative medical doctor and director of the Cancer Center for Healing, specialising in root-cause women’s health.🥩 Kate Deering — author of How to Heal Your Metabolism, explaining how under-eating and stress suppress thyroid and hormone function.🧠 Jay Feldman — researcher and host of the Energy Balance Podcast, sharing how low energy availability mimics menopause symptoms.💫 Kitty Martone — holistic nutritionist and gut health expert, connecting gut–liver detox with estrogen balance.Together, we unpack:✨ Why “low estrogen” is rarely the full picture✨ How thyroid suppression and low progesterone drive symptoms✨ Why stress and under-eating worsen hormone imbalance✨ When HRT helps — and when it doesn’t✨ How to rebuild metabolism so your hormones can finally work with you againThis isn’t about rejecting HRT — it’s about understanding your body’s full story. When your thyroid, metabolism, and liver are supported, your hormones can finally do their job.If you’re a woman over 40 who wants to feel calm, strong, and balanced again, this episode will completely change how you see your body.RESOURCES + LINKSMetabolic Reset ChallengeLearn more about our Winatlife Coaching optionsSaturée products use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first order.Pro-Metabolic Company use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first purchase.Drop Us A Review On The Podcast + Post a screenshot on Instagram stories and Tag @kittyblomfield for your chance to win a tub of Saturée Premium CollagenReview on SpotifyFOLLOWKitty Blomfield @kittyblomfieldKate Deering @katedeeringfitnessKitty Martone @healthygutgirlofficialDr Erin Connealy @connealymdJay Feldman @jfwellnessAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
