Hormones matter more than people think.
When cortisol is high and progesterone is low, your nervous system is in survival mode.
Which means:
⢠patience disappears
⢠affection drops
⢠everything feels irritating
⢠and the last thing you want is someone touching you.
Itâs not a personality problem.
Itâs physiology.
Balance the hormonesâŚ
and suddenly you actually like your spouse again.
If this feels a little too relatable⌠my masterclass explains exactly how to balance the hormones behind it. Link in bio

If your libido disappeared in your late 30s or 40sâŚ
look at your progesterone.
Not your mindset.
Not your relationship.
Progesterone.
Progesterone is calming.
It balances estrogen and lowers stress chemistry.
When progesterone drops, you often see:
⢠worse sleep
⢠more anxiety
⢠a tense, reactive nervous system
⢠lower desire
Because desire requires calm physiology.
And chronic stress makes it worse.
High cortisol â lower progesterone â poor sleep â low libido.
Thatâs not a personality shift.
Thatâs hormone physiology.
Before you assume you âjust donât care anymoreââŚ
check your levels.
Low libido in perimenopause is common.
It is not random.

If you want to understand how stress, hormones, and blood sugar all impact libido, I break it down in my free masterclass.

âHow do you get your husband to support your dreams?â
You donât.
You become someone worth backing.
When he wanted to quit his job and start a remodeling company, I backed him.
No guarantees.
No safety net.
Just belief.
When I was slowly working through school, building this business, not making much money yet â he backed me.
No score keeping.
No âwhen is it my turn?â
No keeping tabs.
Just vision.
We werenât building separate lives.
We were building something bigger than both of us.
Support isnât control.
It isnât permission.
It isnât ego.
Itâs mutual belief.
If you want a partner who protects your ambition,
be someone who protects theirs.
High-achieving women donât need to shrink to stay in a relationship.
They build with someone strong enough to grow alongside them.
Thatâs the difference.

Life with a functional medicine wife.
Protein is not optional.
My husband has accepted his fate.
Anyone else married to the household nutrition police?

If you are the one who runs everything all dayâŚ
Planning.
Managing.
Fixing.
Anticipating.
Your nervous system stays in a sympathetic state.
Alert. Responsible. On duty.
And then at night people expect you to just flip a switch and want s*x.
But desire lives in the parasympathetic state.
Calm. Safe. Relaxed.
That shift doesnât happen instantly.
Your body needs a transition.
Start with a simple ritual between work and bed:
⢠shut the laptop
⢠dim the lights
⢠stretch
⢠take a shower
⢠drink tea
⢠put the phone away
Give your nervous system a signal that itâs safe to power down.
Libido isnât effort.
Itâs safety.
If this sounds like you, I break down how hormones, stress, blood sugar, and the nervous system all connect in my free masterclass.

You don't need a new breakfast every week.
You need one that works.
High performers remove decision fatigue.
Pick an anchor breakfast.
Repeat it.
Hit 30-40g protein.
Include carbs.
Move on with your life.
Why this matters:
Protein in the morning:
⢠Stabilizes blood sugar
⢠Blunts the cortisol spike
⢠Protects muscle
⢠Reduces 3pm cravings
⢠Improves focus
Skipping protein â glucose spike â crash â caffeine â cravings â repeat.
That afternoon slump isn't random.
It started at breakfast.
My current anchors:
⢠High-protein overnight oats
⢠Cottage cheese bowl with cucumbers and h**p hearts
⢠Protein in coffee + 2 eggs + Ezekiel toast
Simple. Predictable. Effective.
Energy isn't about willpower.
It's about structure.
Anchor breakfast is step one.
If you want the full system for stabilizing hormones, gut health, and blood sugar, I teach it in my free masterclass.

Hormone balance improves a lot of things.
Energy.
Sleep.
Mood.
Confidence.
And sometimesâŚlibido.
When progesterone, cortisol, blood sugar, and sleep finally stabilize, the nervous system can relax again.
And desire requires calm physiology.
Apparently my husband is very supportive of that process.
Anyone else notice their libido come back once hormones finally balance?

If youâre:

⢠Living on salads
⢠Walking 10k steps
⢠Avoiding weights
Your body adapts by conserving.

Muscle improves hormone stability.
Muscle changes body composition.
You donât need less food.
You need more stimulus.
Build.

Starving yourself like a model, avoiding bread like a toxic ex, and you still can't lose weight? You're not eating enough!
Undereat too long and it slows everything down: metabolism, hormones, energy.
Feed it the right foods consistently and it finally feels safe enough to burn fuel again.
Sometimes the first step to losing weight... is eating like someone who actually deserves to be fueled.

Granola by itself?
Blood sugar spike â crash â cravings â mood dip.
Itâs not about calories.
Itâs about what your metabolism can handle.
When you eat carbs alone, glucose rises fast.
Insulin follows hard.
Energy drops.
Your brain goes hunting for more.
Now compare that to:
Beef stick + apple.
Protein + fiber + carbs.
Slower glucose rise.
More stable insulin.
Better mood.
Fewer cravings.
More consistent energy.
Same calories? Maybe.
Completely different hormonal response? Absolutely.
Over here we donât eat less.
We eat in a way your nervous system and hormones can actually regulate.
Because stable blood sugar = stable cortisol = better focus, better patience, better performance.
If youâre tired of the crash-and-burn cycle and want to understand whatâs actually happening in your bodyâŚ
Watch my webinar.
Weâre breaking down blood sugar, hormones, and performance in a way that actually makes sense.

She is always continuing her education and is working toward a doctorate in alternative medicine. She is practicing here at the lake in The Lime in the Coconut.
Amanda practices from a functional medicine perspective. This is an exciting way to approach health! We will work to identify the root causes of what is ailing you and address the underlying factors that are causing symptoms and adversely affecting health. Amanda works closely with her clients to find remedies to their health issues and identify problems before they become a problem! This means in most cases your symptoms will disappear for good! Amanda sees fewer clients daily to provide longer visits with each client.
Amanda is also a certified BodyTalk practitioner. BodyTalk is a complementary therapy based on the theory that the body has the wisdom to heal itself. BodyTalk communications are based on neuromuscular biofeedback. Through these communications, the BodyTalk practitioner identifies "energy circuits" within the body that are weakened, stressed, blocked, or broken. BodyTalk integrates the latest discoveries from science, physiology, genetics, psychology, quantum physics and ancient wisdom of eastern medicine to help reconnect lines of healthy communication within all levels of the body-mind.
Amanda began her life in California and lived in many parts of the country growing up. As an adult she ended up in Kansas City where she practiced from an office in her home and homeschooled her children. After several years of the suburbia lifestyle Amanda and her husband caught the travel bug and traveled the country with their kids in an RV! They settled here in 2015 and love life at the lake! Amanda is still homeschooling one child and is practicing at Lime in the Coconut.
