🎙️ Episode Summary:

In this episode of Hormones, Metabolism, and You, Dr. Cassie Smith sits down with registered dietitian Shana Hussin for a refreshingly honest conversation about what happens when health advice meets real life. Shana opens up about how her own experience with stress and burnout caused her to rethink her once-rigid approach to fasting.

Together, they explore why a one-size-fits-all health plan doesn’t work—especially when it comes to things like adrenal health, gut function, and hormone balance. You’ll hear about the role hormones like leptin and cortisol play in our daily rhythms, how stress can throw everything off, and why tuning into your body’s signals matters more than following the latest trend.
