More from Body Freedom with Michele Scarlet
Eating less, exercising more, and STILL gaining weight?
Michele Scarlet sits down with nurse practitioner Tammy O’Rourke, PhD, to explore **HRT weight gain, thyroid problems, perimenopause symptoms, and what may be overlooked in women’s healthcare**. Drawing on Tammy’s personal experiences with endometriosis, medically induced menopause, and ovarian cancer, they discuss why women continue struggling with fatigue, stubborn weight gain, poor sleep, and hormonal symptoms despite being told their bloodwork is normal.
Do mammograms actually save lives? Former breast surgeon Dr. Jenn Simmons joins Michele Scarlet to challenge conventional breast cancer screening, explain overdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment, and explore metabolic health, radiation risks, and emerging screening technologies. A provocative conversation about what women deserve to know before making decisions about their breast health.
What does body freedom actually mean for women over 40? In this episode, Michele Scarlet explores body image after 40, early-2000s diet culture, weight loss, food guilt, exercise, self-worth, external validation, and the pressure women feel to constantly improve their bodies. Michele shares her personal experience growing up during 2000s diet culture, being praised for looking thin, using exercise to compensate for food, and eventually realizing that wanting to change your body does not have to mean hating it. This conversation explores how body image can affect women in midlife and why it’s possible to pursue weight loss, build muscle, care about your appearance, and have health goals without allowing your weight or body to determine your worth. Body Freedom is not about giving up on your body goals. It’s about no longer allowing your body to determine your value.
Michele Scarlet and Stephanie Gambetta explore GLP-1s, peptides, weight loss after 40, metabolic health, muscle building, nutrition, insulin resistance, and foundational health. Stephanie shares how moving away from excessive cardio and toward strength training, recovery, protein, and nourishment transformed her approach to health. They also discuss peptide and GLP-1 use, food noise, gut health, individualized protocols, wearable data, and why these tools should support not replace the foundations of a healthy lifestyle.
