Hormone Health for Moms - Hormone balance, Weight loss resistance, Boost Energy, Cortisol, Blood sugar

*TOP 2.5% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST* Feeling exhausted no matter how much you sleep? Dealing with stubborn weight that won’t budge, unpredictable digestion, or energy crashes that hit hard, especially after having kids? Do you feel like your body is working against you, and no matter how “healthy” you try to be, you’re still bloated, burnt out, and wondering what happened to the old you? I’m Sara Moreira, nurse, functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, and mom of 4. After walking through my own journey of postpartum depletion, flatlined cortisol, and gut imbalances, I know what it’s like to feel dismissed, misdiagnosed, and told “everything looks normal” when you feel anything but. For years I was stuck in the cycle of clean eating, supplement guessing, and chasing symptom after symptom until I discovered how powerful it is to work with the body, not against it. Now I blend functional lab testing with ancestral rhythms, mineral balancing, and a faith-rooted, nervous system-supportive approach to help women restore their metabolism, digestion, and energy after having kids. Inside the Hormone Healing for Moms Podcast, we go beyond quick fixes and diets to uncover the root causes of chronic fatigue, hormonal imbalances, bloating, hair loss, and weight loss resistance. You’ll learn how to reset your circadian rhythm, balance your master hormones like insulin and cortisol, and nourish your body back to safety with simple, science-backed strategies rooted in both functional medicine and God-designed healing. Each episode will help you understand your body on a deeper level so you can get real results that last without burning out or giving up the things that matter most. Because true healing isn’t just physical, it’s spiritual too. Let’s redefine what it means to bounce back after kids and walk in the healing and wholeness you were always meant for.
