Skipping meals might feel productive, but itâs really one of the fastest ways to disrupt your energy, mood, and hormones, leading to a big crash later in the day.
Let me explain- When blood sugar drops, your body releases stress hormones to keep you going. Thatâs when those random cravings hit, your lose focus, and find yourself somehow way more irritable.
Thatâs why I prioritize meals built around protein, fibre, and healthy fats. I want (and want you to have) stable blood sugar, meaning steady energy, clearer thinking, and a regulated nervous system.
Do you struggle after skipping a meal? Would more quick and easy recipe ideas help you out? Let me know in the comments.

"Where did my desire go?" If you've been repeatedly asking yourself, you're going to save this post.
Between the kids, work, family, day-to-day life stresses, changes, responsibilities, and the ever-present arrival of perimenopause, you may have found yourself asking, âWhereâs my s*x drive?â
But it looks something like:
You love your partner, but you are starting to view s*x as a chore rather than something you enjoy, like you used to.
Sound familiar? I know. Weâve been there. Hundreds, if not thousands, of other women feel the same.
This is why Iâm hosting a FREE Q&A series all about libido happening tomorrow at 12:30 and 6:30 PM CST to discuss your personal questions. You'll be in a free Q&A getting insights from a certified health practitioner about what's going on and how to solve the problem.
Comment âLIBIDOâ below to register. I canât wait to support you..
Donât forget to 1) Pick the timeslot that works best for you 2) Leave a question for me to answer.

What I see clinically is this pattern over and over again.
Long-term stress. Burnout. Kids. Responsibility. High expectations.
A nervous system that never fully comes down. When cortisol stays high and recovery stays low, desire is usually the first thing to disappear.
Thatâs not a personal failure. Itâs physiology.
Iâm hosting a free live Q&A to talk through this in a way that actually makes sense of whatâs happening in the body and what helps bring libido back online without forcing it.
Thursday, February 1912:30 PM CST6:30 PM CST virtually
This Q&A is for women who love their partner, want connection, and donât recognize their desire anymore.
Weâll cover how stress, hormones, blood sugar, and nervous system regulation all play a role and why pushing yourself usually backfires.
If youâre new here, Hey, Iâm Amanda Baenisch. Iâm a Certified Natural Health Practitioner, a naturopathic doctor in training, and I work with high-performing women whose health has quietly become the bottleneck.
But if this hit you like a ton of bricks and you want real answers, comment LIBIDO and Iâll send you the details.

A client in her fifties said this to me recently after struggling with low libido, brain fog, poor sleep, and weight gain. She had been told her labs were normal. She was offered an antidepressant. She started wondering if, well, this was just what getting older meant.
But on the inside, she knew something was off.
When we started working together, we supported her hormones, gut, and stress patterns together, things began to change. Her brain fog improved, we worked on her bloating, and, most notably, her s*x drive started to come back in ways she didnât think it ever would.
If any of these issues sound familiar and you want them addressed, Iâm hosting a free libido-focused Q&A on February 19, 2026. I know how frustrating it is to not be taken seriously, especially by doctors. Maybe you do, too.
If any of this resonates with you, comment LIBIDO below and Iâll send you the link to register for the Q&A happening this Thursday.

This part matters, so letâs slow it down for a second.
Cortisol isnât the villain.
Itâs your survival hormone. Itâs what keeps you alert, responsive, and alive when something actually needs your attention.
The problem is how often we ask our body to live there. Most people are running around like headless chickens
Without any real pause. No true recovery. Just constant output. And cortisol is not an unlimited resource.
When it stays elevated for too long, the body starts reallocating.
Thatâs why low s*x drive so often shows up after long seasons of stress.
Not because your desire is broken or you're getting old, but because the body is prioritizing survival over pleasure.
Clinically, cortisol is one of the first things I look at.
When cortisol stabilizes, everything else finally has room to follow.
Grateful for this conversation inside LOZ Biz â Aligned Living Collective with Dr. Brittney Bennett and Ken Lawler.
If youâre asking yourself âWhere did my libido go?â Iâm hosting a free live Q&A on this exact topic on February 19th.

That original video is sitting close to 950,000 views now, and the comments have been⌠passionate đ
So hereâs the context people seem to missâŚThis works for us!! because we see it as fun.
Sometimes I set the terms.Sometimes Rocky does.
We flip the script because thatâs real life.
Youâre not supposed to do this exactly like we do.Thatâs not the point.The point is figuring out what you both enjoy, what feels playful for the both of you, and being willing to switch things up instead of letting intimacy turn into something rigid or heavy or non existent.
Marriage isnât a power struggle. Itâs a rhythm. And s*x doesnât have to feel like asking, begging, or negotiating from a place of pressure.
We joke. We play. We take turns. Because life is already demanding enough.
Intimacy doesnât need to be another serious task on the list.
If you want a s*x life that actually lasts, flexibility and play matter more than rules. Flip the scripts from time to time đ
Do what works for the both of you.
P.s I have free Q&A on Libido happening Feburary 19th! Comment LIBIDO if you've been struggling with your s*x drive or desire has been slowly dwindling.

If libido has felt harder to access lately, the answer usually isnât trying harder or fixing yourself.
Desire doesnât disappear because you stopped caring.
It fades when your nervous system has been managing too much for too long.
Chronic stress changes how the body allocates energy.
Pleasure drops to the bottom of the list when cortisol stays high, blood sugar swings, and recovery never fully happens.
Thatâs why pressure backfires.
And why âjust relaxâ has never worked.
Libido comes back when the body feels regulated enough to receive again.
Not forced. Not negotiated. Not powered through.
This is one of the most common patterns I see right now, and itâs far more physiological than most people realize.
If this made things click and you want to go deeper, Iâm hosting a free live Q&A on libido and hormones on February 19th.

Itâs not a lecture. Itâs not âcan we talk about this right now?â
And itâs definitely not trying to solve anything while emotions are already lit up, and both people are one sentence away from snapping.
Itâs one calm nervous system choosing not to escalate.
Not a matching tone. Not defending. Not even proving a point.
Just staying steady when everything wants to spiral.
When Iâm activated, Iâm not looking for logic or a solution or the perfect words.
My body just wants to feel like itâs not under threat anymore.
And when one person can stay grounded, the entire interaction softens.
Not because someone âwon,â but because the nervous system finally has room to come back online.
Thatâs co-regulation. Not some relationship buzzword, but how humans actually work.
And no, this wasnât always us. We learned this because we were the couple doing it wrong for a long time.
This only works when both people are willing to practice it.
And yes, this is the same work I teach high performers who are dealing with brain fog, emotional reactivity, and burnout.
Different context. Same nervous system.
Should Rocky and I flip the script and do this from a husbandâs POV next?
Drop a đ if this feels painfully familiar.

This is what I actually mean when I say food doesnât need to be complicated.
Most people arenât stuck because they donât know what a âhealthy mealâ is.
Theyâre stuck because food has to work in real life. With kids. With busy nights. With limited time and energy.
High protein. Familiar flavors. Nothing too out of the box.
This is how you stop the cycle of eating well for a week, burning out, and starting over.
You build meals your body responds to, and your family will actually eat.
And yes, food is one of the hardest things clients struggle with.
Not because itâs confusing.
Because no one ever showed them how to make it practical and supportive of hormones and blood sugar.
If you have questions about food and hormones, ask them below.

Your body doesnât give a s**t how hard you work if it never feels safe.
You can be disciplined, motivated, doing all the ârightâ things and still feel exhausted, foggy, disconnected, or flat.
When your nervous system is stuck on high alert, your body chooses survival.
Energy gets rationed.
Desire drops.
Focus narrows.
Recovery slows to a crawl.
Thatâs not a weakness, people.Thatâs biology doing its damn job.
High performers miss this because weâre used to pushing through discomfort.
But your body isnât impressed by grind or willpower.It responds to safety, stability, and consistency. No amount of hustle fixes a system that feels under threat.
So be honest.
Where are you pushing like hell⌠and still not recovering?

Where did your libido go? GREAT QUESTION
For most women, it didnât disappear out of nowhere.
It faded after stress piled up. After burnout. After kids. After years of being the responsible one. After your body learned how to stay in survival mode.
You can love your partner and still feel disconnected from desire.
You can want closeness but feel zero interest in s*x.
And when that happens, s*x starts to feel like effort or pressure instead of something you actually want.
Thatâs far from a relationship problem. Itâs usually a nervous system and hormone issue.
This is exactly why, for LOVE MONTH, Iâm hosting a free live Q&A in February to talk about exactly this.
Weâre going to be focusing on whatâs actually happening in the body and what helps bring desire back without forcing it.
